Upon hearing this, Zhao Shou sneered, "Is it that you're finding it increasingly difficult to control Wei Yuan, or are those nobles' dragon-slaying techniques becoming more and more formidable?!"
Huaiqing remained silent.
"It's a pity that even after more than ten years of dedicated practice in the bamboo forest, I still couldn't cross the insurmountable barrier set by the Cheng family's second sage," Zhao Shou sighed.
If Su Nan were here, that would be wonderful.
Just as the two were talking, a servant hurriedly entered the tea room.
He came to Huaiqing's side and whispered a few words to him.
"Your Highness..."
Huaiqing immediately frowned.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Shou asked, "What's wrong? Has something big happened in the capital?"
The eldest princess was always discreet and rarely showed her emotions; her expression was rarely seen to change.
Huaiqing waved away the attendants before saying, "It's Su Nan, the one the Dean is very concerned about."
"He was arrested by the Ministry of Justice."
Zhao Shou's expression was somewhat strange.
Su Nan has been arrested by the Ministry of Justice?!
What a joke.
If I can't even beat someone of the third rank, how can the Ministry of Justice possibly subdue him?
"Didn't the dean value this person highly? Why aren't you worried at all?" Huaiqing asked, looking at Dean Zhao Shou's expression with considerable doubt.
Zhao Shou's expression quickly returned to normal, and he said, "What's there to worry about?"
"Wouldn't His Highness step in to save this boy?"
Huaiqing smiled faintly and said, "How about I give this opportunity to the Dean?"
"If the dean can save Su Nan from danger, it might make him feel favorably toward Yunlu Academy."
Why should we save him?
With the strength of southern Jiangsu, dismantling the Ministry of Justice wouldn't be difficult.
However, Zhao Shou did not want to reveal anything in front of Huai Qing, so after thinking about it, he agreed.
Since Su Nan has consistently refrained from revealing any of his strength, it indicates that he intends to bide his time and conceal his abilities.
Being arrested by the Ministry of Justice this time might force him to reveal his true strength.
If I can help him, then I will, so that he won't be forced to reveal his strength and can continue to lie low.
As for the return...
Zhao Shou didn't expect any reward.
Su Nan is an untamed wanderer who can create his own unique cultivation system; Yunlu Academy cannot accommodate him.
If he grows up in the future and remembers the good things about Yunlu Academy, and takes care of him a little, that will be enough.
“Your Highness is right. Then I will go to the Ministry of Justice with you.”
Zhao Shou slowly stood up.
Huaiqing didn't find it strange at all.
In her view, Zhao Shou had placed all his hopes for breaking the seal on Su Nan.
It's not strange that he went to the Ministry of Justice in person.
……
Ministry of Punishment.
Surrounded by a group of armored soldiers, Su Nan followed Zhou Li and the official into the Ministry of Justice.
Stepping into the Ministry of Justice, Su Nan showed no fear whatsoever.
Zhou Li glanced at Su Nan from time to time, a cold smile playing on his lips.
What a celestial being!
How could someone enter the Ministry of Justice and still maintain composure without their legs trembling?
But from now on, your life and death will be in my hands.
"Take this person to jail and await further instructions!"
With a wave of his hand, the official from the Ministry of Justice ordered the soldiers to escort Su Nan to the prison.
Su Nan then laughed and asked, "May I ask, sir, what crime have I committed?"
The fifth-rank official in the Ministry of Justice sneered, "Wasn't what I said clear enough?"
"Offending the relatives of an official of the imperial court!"
Su Nan smiled again and asked, "Do you have any arrest warrants?"
The official in charge of the Ministry of Justice was speechless.
Did we run into someone who knows the law?!
"If I say you are guilty, then you are guilty!"
"Besides, you offended Young Master Zhou, and there are so many witnesses; why bother with arrest warrants!"
"You scoundrel, if you keep making a sound, you'll be subjected to severe torture!"
The official in charge of the Ministry of Justice was unreasonable, yet he was still arrogant.
Whether you are guilty or not is up to the officials to decide.
I am the one in power, who do you think you are?!
Do you really think you're a god?!
"Guards, take him away!"
Zhou Li stood to the side, smiling as he looked at Su Nan.
As the saying goes, the people do not fight with the officials.
I could easily destroy a commoner like you.
Once we get to the Ministry of Justice prison, I'll make you try out all those instruments of torture.
Su Nan stopped arguing with the Ministry of Justice official and instead looked at Zhou Li, who was not far away.
“Zhou Li, one can live with the sins of Heaven, but one cannot live with the sins of one’s own making.”
Su Nan originally did not intend to take action.
But there's nothing we can do about it today.
Zhou Li sneered upon hearing this: "Say that to yourself."
The official from the Ministry of Justice grew impatient and shouted angrily, "Stop talking nonsense, take him away!"
Seeing the armored soldiers surrounding him, Su Nan slowly took out a token from his pocket.
The official from the Ministry of Justice immediately recognized that what Su Nan was holding was the Princess's golden token, and his expression froze instantly.
He stiffly turned his head to look at Zhou Li, and glared at him.
Why didn't you say he had that thing?!
Princess Jinling!
Seeing this token is like seeing Her Highness the Princess!
Zhou Li's expression was rather unpleasant.
How was I supposed to know he had this!
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
Fortunately, this official from the Ministry of Justice was a man of the world, and immediately retorted in a deep voice, "So what if you are a guest of the Princess?!"
"Those who break the law should be dealt with according to the law!"
"Even if she is the eldest princess, she will not protect you!"
"Take him...to the prison!"
Although the official in charge of the Ministry of Justice mustered his courage, he was still feeling uneasy inside, and his tone was not as firm as before.

Chapter 19 What day is it today? Everyone's at the Ministry of Justice? [Seeking flowers and monthly tickets]
Immediately.
Su Nan was taken to prison by armored soldiers.
Compared to before, these soldiers were much more polite and did not dare to get too close to Su Nan.
This person, holding the Princess's golden token, could hardly be an ordinary individual!
These armored soldiers weren't fools.
It's obvious that this whole thing is a scheme by Physician Huang and Young Master Zhou to frame this person.
If this person had no background whatsoever, then it wouldn't matter.
Unfortunately, he was one of the eldest princess's men.
When gods fight, the little devils suffer.
All the soldiers could do was be gentle with Su Nan.
"Mr. Su, please?"
A soldier opened the cell door, scratched his head, and gestured for the prisoner to enter.
He can't exactly take this person inside, can he?
This was the first time the Ministry of Justice had ever so humiliatingly let someone in.
