Once Li Aniu understood the crux of the matter, he did not resist.
The constables tied Qin Chuan up as well, and Qin Chuan let them tie him up. This was Jiangzhou Prefecture, not Jianglin County. Fan Hutu was about to make another mistake...
"And this father and daughter, take them with you!"
Fan Hutu gave the order, and four constables then took He Wu and his daughter into custody as well.
The group went directly to the prefectural government office.
Many sharp-eyed constables recognized Qin Chuan and immediately exclaimed, "Isn't this Lord Su's fifth son-in-law?"
"What fifth son-in-law? That's the Imperial Advisor!"
"Oh? I just found out!"
"Hurry up, kneel down, kneel down, and don't speak..."

When Fan Hutu heard Zhang Shuban say this, he thought that his reprimand had worked, and hurriedly said, "Go and invite him quickly!"
"Okay!"
Zhang, the clerk, covered his mouth and tried to suppress his laughter as he ran to the Su residence. When he met the steward of the Su residence, he said that he had important business to discuss and insisted on seeing the prefect in person.
The steward took him to see Su Zhi Qiu.
As soon as Zhang Shuban saw Su Zhiqi, he knelt down: "Your Excellency, Magistrate Fan has tied up the Imperial Preceptor!"
