She's skilled in medicine, martial arts, and even understands animal language—the abandoned dau

Shen Han jumped up in fright, but her feet and hands were shackled, and her mouth was gagged with a cloth. She couldn't resist, let alone commit suicide.

Shen Han's eyes were filled with despair, tears streaming down her cheeks, her heart brimming with fear and helplessness.

She tried to struggle, but the shackles prevented her from moving.

Meanwhile, the Japanese men had already entered the prison cell. The leader had a ferocious look on his face and a vicious smile on his lips. "You bitch, you dared to refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! You dared to touch our people, and today I'll make you taste what it's like to wish you were dead!"

After saying that, he drew a short knife from his waist and held it in his hand, slowly approaching Shen Han.

Shen Han shrank back in terror, her back pressed tightly against the cold wall. Her heart pounded, and fear overwhelmed her like a tidal wave, but the instinct for survival kept her going, and she glared angrily.

However, all she managed to shout out were muffled sobs.

"You're curious how we got in, aren't you?" The Japanese man sneered. "To tell you the truth, everything we did was with the tacit approval of your Empress. Today, you can't escape!" With that, he swung his knife at Shen Han's chest.

Shen Han twisted her body in terror to avoid the Japanese man's touch, making whimpering sounds as she looked pitiful.

Just at this critical moment, the prison door was smashed open with a loud bang, sending splinters flying everywhere.

Marquis Qingyang appeared before everyone like a war god descending, holding a long spear. The spear tip gleamed coldly, aimed directly at the throat of the Japanese soldier.

"Han'er!"

Marquis Qingyang roared, his voice echoing across the land, his eyes filled with heartache and anger.

He flashed forward like a ghost, his spear moving with impenetrable speed and shadows, instantly forcing the Japanese man back several steps.

Through her blurry, tear-filled eyes, Shen Han recognized the person as her father. A surge of joy and relief welled up within her, and her eyes instantly welled up again. However, because her mouth was gagged, she could only utter muffled sounds.

"You beasts, how dare you touch my daughter! Today is your death day!"

Marquis Qingyang roared, his body radiating a chilling aura, his usual composure now transformed into boundless killing intent.

It turned out that after failing to contact officials everywhere to exonerate his daughter, Marquis Qingyang returned home extremely anxious and restless.

Meanwhile, his wife, Wang, kept crying in his ear, urging him to quickly find a way to save their daughter.

Wang truly loved her daughter, whom she had raised from childhood.

Marquis Qingyang knew that the prison was a den of iniquity and that his daughter was at the prime of her life. If he did not rescue her in time, she would be in grave danger.

At this moment, he no longer cared about obeying the law. Relying on his superb martial arts skills honed over many years of battles and his deep love for his daughter, he resolutely decided to lead his family guards to break into the prison and rescue his daughter.

He immediately summoned Jiang Huai, the commander of the guards in the manor, and told him about his plan to break him out of prison that night. He asked Jiang Huai to select a few skilled guards to go with him.

Shen Han was usually kind and polite, and was well-liked by everyone in the mansion. Therefore, when they heard that they were going to rescue the young lady, none of the guards were unwilling.

Marquis Qingyang also used his connections to bribe a jailer and obtain a detailed map of the Dali Temple prison.

Along the way, Marquis Qingyang and his guards skillfully avoided the patrolling jailers and, relying on their familiarity with the terrain and their superb martial arts skills, successfully found Shen Han's cell.

When Marquis Qingyang saw that his daughter had almost been violated by the Japanese, he was secretly glad that he had arrived in time. If he had been any later, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

"Han'er, don't be afraid, it's alright, Dad will definitely get you out of here!"

Marquis Qingyang personally pulled the cloth out of Shen Han's mouth and cut the chains binding her hands and feet with a knife.

"You take the young lady and leave first. I want to kill these beasts with my own hands!"

The Japanese soldiers were startled by what they saw, but they were not willing to back down because of their numbers. They drew their weapons and surrounded Qingyang Hou.

Marquis Qingyang showed no fear. His spear moved like a dragon emerging from the sea, thrusting left and right, each strike carrying immense force.

His figure moved freely among the Japanese, and wherever he went, the Japanese screamed and fell to the ground.

Soon, the cell was filled with the corpses of Japanese soldiers, and blood spread across the floor.

After dealing with the Japanese, Marquis Qingyang turned around and strode after his daughter and guards, who had already run outside the prison.

But they hadn't run far when they heard a cacophony of footsteps and the clanging of weapons ahead. It turned out that a large number of prison guards had been alerted and were coming to intercept them.

"My lord, what should we do?" Jiang Huai asked anxiously, gripping his long sword tightly.

Marquis Qingyang's eyes were sharp as he surveyed the surroundings. He said in a deep voice, "When two armies meet on a narrow path, the brave will prevail. Let's break through from the side gate, where there should be relatively fewer prison guards."

Having said that, he took the lead and charged toward the side gate.

Along the way, the prison guards swarmed forward, trying to block their path.

Marquis Qingyang brandished his spear, and no one could stand against him wherever he went. Jiang Huai and other guards also closely protected Shen Han, engaging in a fierce battle with the prison guards.

In the midst of the fierce battle, Shen Han, though still shaken, tried her best to calm herself down. She knew that she could not become a burden to her father and the others at this moment.

Just as they were about to reach the side door, Shen Han suddenly noticed a jailer attacking Qingyang Marquis from behind. Without thinking, she shouted, "Father, watch out behind you!"

At the same time, she picked up a sword from the ground and rushed towards the jailer.

Upon hearing the shouts, Marquis Qingyang turned around quickly, but Shen Han's sword had already pierced the prison guard's body.

He looked at his daughter, his eyes filled with both relief and worry: "Han'er, don't be reckless, stay close to everyone!"

Finally, they broke through the jailers' numerous obstacles and arrived at the side door.

Just as they breathed a sigh of relief, they discovered that the side door was secured with a thick, long iron chain and a large padlock.

"My lord, what should we do?" a guard asked anxiously.

Marquis Qingyang frowned, preparing to forcefully break the chains with his spear, when he heard a loud shout from behind: "Wait a minute!"

Everyone turned around and saw a man dressed in black running quickly towards them, holding a bunch of keys in his hand.

As he approached, the crowd was able to see clearly that he was Zhao Ming, the Vice Minister of the Court of Judicial Review.

Upon seeing Zhao Ming, everyone was taken aback, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Marquis Qingyang's gaze was like lightning as he stared intently at Zhao Ming. He held his spear horizontally and said in a cold voice, "Zhao Ming, what tricks are you trying to pull now?"

Zhao Ming quickly waved his hand and said breathlessly, "My lord, please don't misunderstand. I've come here to help you."

As he spoke, he shook the key in his hand.

Shen Han looked puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "Lord Zhao, you sentenced me to prison before, but now you're helping me. Why is that?"
