The two people looked at each other, only to find a familiar face.

This man was the general whom Yao Shu had taken away a few days ago. Now he looked at the two people in front of him with a smile on his lips.

"It's been a long time no see, two old friends."

He stood in front of the cell door with a smile on his face.

He stared straight at Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan, as if he wanted to see some pleading and panic in their eyes.

Unexpectedly, Yao Shu was exceptionally calm, while Shen Nanshan had an angry look on his face.

"You must not have expected to see me here. Just a few days later, we will meet again. I wonder what you two want to say about today's meeting?" He opened his hands. Waiting for the two people's responses.

Yao Shu smiled softly and looked at him: "Although I don't know the name of this official, I know that he came to us today not to reminisce about old times."

"You are a smart man." The general snorted coldly, and then took a step forward.

He was about to speak when he suddenly realized there were others around him, but waved his hand to signal them all to get down.

Now there were only two people left in the huge cell, Yao Shu, the general and his personal bodyguards.

"Now there are only a few of us left, and I don't have to hide it anymore. I hope you can understand some things. If you weren't so pushy, you wouldn't be in this situation now." The general's expression became serious. He was ferocious, and he hammered the cell door with his fist in anger.

"I don't know what the officer is talking about. I would like to trouble you to explain it in detail." Yao Shu frowned. Her inquiry was not because she didn't really understand what the general said, but because she saw someone around the corner. A black shadow.

The general had just sent out the other soldiers, and the people standing by the door must be high-ranking people.

If the general can be guided to express his thoughts in detail, Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan may be able to make a turn for the better.

As expected, this general is also a brainless person.

He snorted coldly: "I really don't know what you guys are thinking. You still insist on going to disaster relief even though you don't understand anything. Why do you get such a fat job? If you didn't insist on being in the limelight, you wouldn't be able to do it now. You won't meet me in prison."

After saying that, something suddenly occurred to him, and a cold smile appeared on his lips: "But it's okay now. Since you guys are already here, don't think about going out again."

"I don't know what the official meant. Our Shen family didn't do anything. Why are we locked up here and unable to get out?" Yao Shu asked knowingly, and then spoke.

"If someone doesn't want you to go out, naturally you can't go out."

Shen Nanshan also understood what Yao Shu meant at this moment, so he followed her words and continued to ask: "Can you please tell us who this person is?"

The general was about to speak when something suddenly occurred to him and he usually kept silent immediately.

"What does this have to do with you? You just need to know that you are under my control now. Just answer whatever I ask you later. If there is anything you know that you don't report, don't blame me for not giving you a chance."

After the general finished speaking, he waved his hand and walked out.

The black shadow hiding in the corner also subconsciously dodged and disappeared.

Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan knew what the general meant, but they just wanted to tell them that he would soon accuse two people, and by then, whether they admitted the crime or not, they would be blamed.

If they want to suffer less, they can just accept it.

This is a common method used in prison cells, and subjugation is always the most effective.

But Yao Shu would not let the situation get so bad. She watched the black shadow around the corner disappear and was ready to give it a try.

"I don't know why this official is still hiding in the dark."

Shen Nanshan didn't know what she was talking about. He followed her line of sight and saw a person slowly walking out from the corner.

This person looked very familiar, and Shen Nanshan felt like he had seen him somewhere before.

He subconsciously frowned and thought for a moment, and suddenly thought that this person was the general's personal guard.

The personal guard stood in front of several people. The expression on his face was not at all like the flattery he had just shown. Instead, he was serious and thoughtful.

He came directly to Yao Shu and asked in a deep voice: "How did you know where I was hiding?"

"The reason is very simple. The place where Guan Ye is hiding is just under the bamboo shadow. You can see Guan Ye's figure with just one glance."

Unexpectedly, Yao Shu discovered him from this angle. He couldn't help but chuckle in a low voice: "It is said that Mrs. Shen is very smart, and now it seems that she is indeed so."

"The official is joking. I wonder how tall the official is?" Yao Shu began to guess.

The man took out a token from his arms. Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan took a closer look and found that it had the four characters "Shang Shu of the Ministry of Punishment" written on it.

Shen Nanshan couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart and asked first: "It turned out to be the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, but why were you just now?"

The Minister of Punishment waved his hand: "I have long felt that there was something wrong with him, but I could never find out, so I pretended to be his subordinate and wanted to see him show off his tricks. Just through his conversation with you, I found out that he is indeed Colluding secretly with others.”

"Do you believe us, sir?" Yao Shu was a little surprised.

The Minister of Punishment nodded: "Of course I believe you. When you went to the north to provide relief, I sent people to follow you. Every move you make is under my control. It was only after this incident that I learned, You, the Shen family, are well aware of the righteousness and have no second thoughts. Now that I heard that you, the Shen family, are secretly hiding important criminals from the imperial court, this must be false news. In addition, the Prime Minister also trusts you very much and firmly believes that this matter must be deliberately slandered by someone. ."

Hearing this, Yao Shu breathed a sigh of relief: "Since both the Prime Minister and the Minister of Punishment know that our Shen family has been slandered, we can feel relieved."

"It's just that I need to wrong you a little during this period." The Ministry of Punishment wrote a letter and was about to tell the two people the whole story, but suddenly they heard footsteps coming from outside.

Yao Shu stopped his next words: "Sir, there is no need to mention the next thing. We will have plenty of opportunities later."

The Minister of Punishment raised his eyebrows slightly: "In that case, I will take my leave first. You two must take care of yourself."

As he said that, he flashed his body and immediately went to the other side.

After confirming that he had hidden, Yao Shu and Shen Nanshan breathed a sigh of relief.
