Get all values from nested dictionaries in python

I have some dictionaries of dictionaries, like this:

a['b']['c']['d']['answer'] = answer1
a['b']['c']['e']['answer'] = answer2
a['b']['c']['f']['answer'] = answer3
....
a['b']['c']['d']['conf'] = conf1
a['b']['c']['e']['conf'] = conf2
a['b']['c']['f']['conf'] = conf3

Is there a fast way to get a list of values of all answers for all elements at the third level (d,e,f)?

Specifically I'd like to know if there's any mechanism implementing a wildcard (e.g., a['b']['c']['*']['answer'].values()

update The fastest way I've found till now is:

[x['answer'] for x in a['b']['c'].values()]
