This prison in the Ministry of War was leftover from the Hao Nation and hadn't been used for decades. It was specially renovated to receive the emperor of the Yun Nation and was given a new bed of straw.
The cells were located underground, and when the doors were opened, there wasn't only a musty smell, but also other strange smells.
The original color of the iron doors was no longer discernible as they were all covered by a reddish-brown rust.
The emperor of the Yun Nation and his concubines numbered more than ten and were housed separately in a few cells.
In fact, it was enough to send only the emperor, but in a rare act of kindness, Zi Donglai gave them a chance to stay together.
Regardless, they were to be escorted, so he might as well send the emperor and his harem as a package.
When the cell doors were opened, a ray of light broke through the darkness of the cells and woke the prisoners up.
