Emperor Shen's charming wife

Several days passed, and the door of the secret room remained closed. Shen Yu received the wrong information and mistakenly thought that Ning Yao had been abducted by the enemy. He stood outside the secret room in despair, like a body without a soul. Every inch of the air was filled with the breath of pain, and his heart was like being cut by countless sharp blades, almost to the brink of collapse. Shen Yu's mind kept flashing Ning Yao's delicate and helpless appearance. Her tears, her full of sadness, and her endless despair lingered in his heart like a nightmare, lingering. He really couldn't bear the heart-wrenching pain of losing Ning Yao, and couldn't accept that Ning Yao disappeared from his life without any signs. In this extreme pain and deep self-blame, Shen Yu resolutely decided to go all out. He was determined to use all his resources, even the royal spy network that he had carefully cultivated for many years. Even if he had to search every inch of land in the country, he would find Ning Yao back. He wanted Ning Yao to know clearly that he would always be her solid support and her warm harbor. He wanted Ning Yao to understand that he would never give up looking for her, and he would wait foolishly until she came back to his side. Late at night, Shen Yu sat alone in the study, the candlelight swaying gently in the breeze, reflecting his frowning face in light and dark. His eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes shuttled between every clue left by Ning Yao eagerly and desperately. Those pieces of paper full of handwriting seemed to be a mysterious map leading to where Ning Yao was, but he could not find the right path. Every clue was like an illusory bubble, ruthlessly shattered at the moment when he was about to grasp hope, making his heart fall into the endless abyss again and again. He felt an invisible big hand, tightly grasping his heart, and the pain made his breathing heavy and difficult. He kept beating his chest, full of self-blame. He questioned himself over and over again, if he had cared more about Ning Yao, if he had paid more attention to Ning Yao's emotions, if he had given Ning Yao more time and space, would all this not have happened? Would she not be missing now? At the same time, in the dim and damp secret room, Ning Yao did not give up hope and was actively trying to save herself. Her slender fingers tightly grasped the mysterious note, her eyes firm and focused. She used the sundries beside her as possible tools to try to decipher the code. She firmly believed that as long as she could decipher the mysterious code, she could find a way to escape and expose the enemy's conspiracy. And all this happened without Shen Yu's knowledge. It was for this reason that the foreshadowing of the upcoming reunion was laid. After the long and anxious wait, Ning Yao finally noticed that there was something wrong with a brick on the wall of the secret room in a seemingly ordinary but mysterious accidental opportunity. Her sharp eyes instantly focused on this, and the color and texture of this brick seemed to be slightly different from the surrounding bricks. Ning Yao, feeling uneasy, carefully reached out her hand and gently touched it. The brick actually shook slightly. She was suddenly surprised and increased the strength of her hand. Finally, she successfully took down the brick. Behind the brick, there was a deep and dark cave. There was no hesitation or fear in Ning Yao's eyes. She went into the cave without hesitation and resolutely embarked on her escape journey. In the narrow cave, Ning Yao crawled hard, and time seemed to become extremely long. After an unknown amount of time, Ning Yao finally saw a faint light in front of her. This light instantly ignited her inner hope. She was very excited and sped up her crawling speed. Finally, she successfully got out of the cave.
