Out of curiosity, Ye Daosheng and Crown Prince Changqing left the palace.

The carriage of the Eastern Palace traveled along the long street for a long time. Ye Daosheng lifted the curtain several times to look outside. "Brother Emperor, we are about to leave the city."

"Yes, we have to leave the city!"

"Brother, where are you going?"

"Don't be anxious. You'll know when you get there." Prince Changqing said, with his eyes drooping and falling into a doze. This completely aroused Ye Daosheng's curiosity.

The carriage drove along the official road and slowly stopped after an hour. Li Yian's voice came, "Your Highness, we are here."

"Old Three, get out of the car!"

Ye Daosheng got off the carriage and looked around, finding that he was in a forest. The towering old trees blocked the sunlight, and it was dark under the trees all year round, with a lot of moss growing.

"Brother, is this the place you are talking about?"

"There is still some distance to go. We need to walk."

Prince Changqing walked forward as he spoke. The three of them shuttled through the forest, and soon a villa at the end of the forest appeared in Ye Daosheng's sight. He had already guessed that the place they were going to was the villa in the forest ahead.

I didn't expect that there would be a villa at the end of the forest, built on the mountains, like a winding dragon.

When the villa in the woods appeared before his eyes, Ye Daosheng raised his head and saw four large characters on the plaque: [Yulong Villa]. It was the first time he knew such a place existed.

At this time.

Two guards came forward and bowed, "Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness Prince Ning."

The prince glanced sideways and said in a deep voice, "Go in, Third Brother!"

Arriving at the hall of Yulong Villa, an old man in white appeared in a short while. Ye Changqing bowed and greeted him respectfully, "Changqing, meet the Third Grandpa."

"Daosheng, hurry up and meet Third Grandpa."

Ye Daosheng looked at the gray-haired old man in front of him and said, "Daosheng, meet the Third Grandfather."

"You are Daosheng."

"I have been hearing your father mention you for a while." The old man nodded with great satisfaction. "Chengtou Wendaosheng Wensheng is very exciting. Our Great Qin Empire finally has a genius."

Ye Daosheng was shocked, knowing that the old man in front of him was in Xianyang City when he was fighting with Wensheng that day. No wonder the Emperor of Qin said that day that Wensheng would never be able to leave Xianyang City alive.

The old man in front of him, whom he called Third Grandpa, had already reached the ninth-grade grandmaster level and was only half a step away from Wanxiang.

"Thank you for the compliment, Third Grandpa!"

"Changqing, what are you doing in Yulong Garden? Did your father ask you two brothers to come here?"

"Replying to Third Grandfather, it was our father who asked us to come."

"Okay, go ahead!" The old man put his hands behind his back, stood up and left.

Prince Changqing led Ye Daosheng to the depths of the Imperial Dragon Courtyard, "Brother, when did the Emperor ask you to bring me here?"

"Third brother, when father mentioned to you about forming a shadow guard in Taiji Palace, I knew that father wanted me to bring you here."

Ye Daosheng looked at Crown Prince Changqing in surprise, shocked by his understanding of Emperor Qin. To be honest, among the three brothers, he was the only one who could understand Emperor Qin's mind.

At the deepest part of the villa was a majestic mountain. Prince Changqing stopped and said, "Grandpa Jian, open the door!"

boom!

A loud noise was heard, and a stone door suddenly opened on the mountain in front of him. Ye Daosheng was shocked. He didn't expect that there was something else in this mountain. "Brother, can you tell me now where this place is?"

"Dungeon!"

Ye Daosheng: “???”

Prince Changqing entered the stone gate and walked forward, "Third Brother, you need people to form a shadow guard. The people in this dungeon are very suitable."

Ye Daosheng remained silent, curious about who would be imprisoned here. The fact that the Qin Dynasty had such a mysterious dungeon was really beyond his imagination.

A ninth-grade grandmaster can be allowed to stay here to guard it. The people imprisoned in the dungeon are probably not ordinary people.

There was only a faint light in the dark passage. Prince Changqing remained silent all the way until he stopped at the end of the passage, holding his hand on the guardrail, "Third Brother, don't you find it strange that there is a dungeon here?"

He turned to look at Ye Daosheng, "Your expression now is exactly the same as when I first came here, come and take a look!"

Ye Daosheng came to his side, also holding the railing, looking down from above, with a full view of everything in the dungeon. He could clearly feel the powerful fluctuations of true energy flowing through the air.

"Third brother, there are 398 people imprisoned here. Among them are the most heinous criminals, former rivals of the Qin Dynasty, and former rivals of Grandpa Huang..."

"Anyway, these people have threatened Daqin before, so they are imprisoned here, guarded by Third Grandpa and Grandpa Jian."

Ye Daosheng nodded, "Brother, these people are not simple. I want to take them away to form a shadow guard, which is not a simple matter."

Ye Changqing smiled and said, "That depends on your ability. You can take as many people as you want. You need to communicate with them yourself. The prerequisite is that they are 100% loyal to you before you can let them leave the dungeon. Otherwise, these people will never be able to step out of the dungeon."

He knew the interests involved. Whether these people left the dungeon or not, they might pose a huge threat to Daqin. However, Ye Daosheng was not sure if he could let the monks in the dungeon leave with him.

"Brother, please lock me up in the dungeon!"

"???" Crown Prince Changqing was stunned. "Old Third, what nonsense are you talking about? If they imprison you here and know your identity, you will be in danger."

"Brother Emperor, only by making them truly submit can we use them for the Qin Dynasty." Ye Daosheng said solemnly, "If you want them to submit, it will definitely not be possible with just a few words."

"Please help me, my brother."

At this point, he seemed to have thought of something, "Brother, who has the strongest cultivation in the dungeon?"

Prince Changqing raised his hand and pointed directly at the deepest dungeon, "The big devil, Ji Wudao. His cultivation is on par with Third Grandfather and Grandfather Jian. He is fully capable of leaving here, but he refused to leave even when Father asked him to."

"What a weirdo."

Ye Daosheng nodded, "Brother, are the other people in the dungeon afraid of Ji Wudao?"

"Of course, his title of the Great Demon King is not undeserved. He once massacred three cities by himself and killed three thousand Jianghu monks in one battle."

"So fierce?" Ye Daosheng was shocked. "Then why is he imprisoned here?"

"My father said that when he was defeated by my grandfather, he was imprisoned here for sixty years."

"Okay, my brother, lock me up with him."

"Third brother, absolutely not. This person is extremely emotionally unstable. Your life could be in danger at any time if you stay with him." Ye Changqing refused without hesitation. "I really don't dare to make the decision on such an important matter."

"Royal brother, it was my father who asked you to bring me here. You must obey me in everything. I will take full responsibility for any problems that arise and will never implicate you."

"Ah, this!" Prince Changqing was very embarrassed.

"Brother, do you not believe me?"
