"I want to see Prime Minister Zhou, let me see Prime Minister Zhou." Tang Yu continued to shout.
The jailer was so angry that he laughed, "Hey, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. Who do you think you are to meet Prime Minister Zhou in the middle of the night? Do you think you can meet Prime Minister Zhou whenever you want?"
"Brother Jailer, please help pass the message on. I will reward you handsomely later."
The jailer raised his whip and lashed it hard on the door bars. "Do you think I'm stupid? You're a death row prisoner. What's the point of rewarding me?"
"Stop yelling, or I'll be rude to you."
"I want to see Prime Minister Zhou. Please let me see Prime Minister Zhou."
Tang Yu grabbed the jailer, but the jailer pushed him away and whipped him hard with the whip in his hand.
"If you shout again, I'll beat you to death."
Tang Yu was shaking with pain, but he kept shouting, and his shouts were getting louder and louder.
At this time, the General of Chariots and Cavalry personally escorted several bandits into the prison.
The head jailer came to greet him personally, "General, why did you escort him here in person?"
"These bandits are very skilled in martial arts, so we still have to be careful. It's just bad luck for them that they happened to meet me when I returned to the capital." The General of Chariots and Cavalry said in a rough voice.
"Only you, the great general, can subdue these bandits. No one else can do it." The head jailer said flatteringly.
Suddenly, there was a sound of ghosts howling in the cell.
"Who is still shouting here in the middle of the night?" The General of Chariots and Cavalry looked into the depths of the cell.
"They're just some clueless guys. We'll teach them a lesson later," the head jailer said. "General, leave these bandits to us. It's getting late, and it's raining outside. You should go back and get some rest."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard another howl from the cell.
"I have something important to tell you, something that concerns the survival of the country. Please let me see Prime Minister Zhou."
The people outside heard this sound clearly.
The head jailer cursed the man in his heart and wished he could tear his mouth apart.
"General, don't believe the words of these arrogant people. It's all nonsense about what concerns the life and death of the country." The head jailer said with a smile.
The General of Chariots and Cavalry did not think so, as he was different from the civil officials.
"I'll go check it out. I want to see what he knows."
Having said this, he walked straight inside despite the chief jailer's attempts to stop him.
When he came up to him, he grabbed the whip in the jailer's hand. The jailer was about to curse, but when he saw the clothes the man was wearing, he turned pale with fear.
"General."
The General of Chariots and Cavalry slammed his whip on the ground and walked up to Tang Yu. "What did you just say?"
Tang Yu was surprised when he saw him appear.
Could it be that the General of Chariots and Cavalry is the bridge she mentioned, the one who will lead him into the palace?
"I, I know a huge secret about the safety of His Majesty. I want to see Prime Minister Zhou." Tang Yu said breathlessly, enduring the pain all over his body.
"What secret?" asked the General of Chariots and Cavalry.
Tang Yu looked at him warily, "I need to see Prime Minister Zhou first. I don't trust you."
The General of Chariots and Cavalry snorted coldly, "How dare you say that, kid. Believe it or not, I have countless ways to make you spit it out."
Tang Yu chuckled, "Before you take action, I will take this secret to hell. My death is not a pity, but with the death of the emperor, the Southern Tang will fall into civil war and ultimately fall."
