Inside were rows of houses on both sides, and on the side, there was a small door leading outdoors, guarded by two drowsy soldiers.
The two soldiers, upon seeing their Prefecture Lord, quickly bent over and walked over.
"Sir, why have you come personally? Do you need a few..."
He had not finished speaking when the Prefecture Lord slapped him aside.
"Open all the doors for me!"
The soldiers hurried to open the doors.
The girls inside, unaware of the good fortune about to befall them, started screaming in fear.
It was only after the soldiers had herded the girls out that Qi Yue realized how miserable they were.
The poor girls, each in tattered clothes, all had eyes filled with fear. Seeing the Prefecture Lord standing in the courtyard, some girls were so frightened that they trembled, falling to the ground, losing the ability to walk.
A few women from the back courtyard gathered at the door, watching the scene unfold with surprise.
