Episode 1 recap: Cloud Shopkeeper appeared.
When Chen Man Cang, the chief scribe, was being carried by others, he looked around at the surrounding prison cells and asked the person next to him where they were. At this moment, Han Qi Chen couldn't resist mocking the person in front of him for having a bad memory, but he didn't expect the other party to play dumb and act confused, which infuriated him and made him draw his sword.
The other party, still somewhat delirious, claimed that if they hadn't done anything serious like killing or arson, they wouldn't have been sentenced to death. Han Qi Chen's anger subsided a bit, and he calmly mentioned the matter of the other party embezzling official funds. The Lord of the city was preparing to personally interrogate them. When they arrived in front of the Lord, Qian Shunfa took the initiative to step forward and revealed the matter of the embezzled money. If it wasn't handled properly, they wouldn't be able to explain it to the Emperor. Even a few old timers standing nearby spoke up for the person in question.
The Lord inside also heard their voices, but she already knew a lot about the current situation and was aware that Chen Man Cang was timid and afraid of death. She intended to make him confess voluntarily. Later, Chen Man Cang sneaked out alone but was caught. Unexpectedly, while he was on the way, a beautiful stranger suddenly poured a bucket of cold water on him.
