An official from the Tiger Yasi said arrogantly, "Master Zhang, please come with us to the Tiger Yasi!"
Zhang Han felt a chill in his heart and clasped his fists, saying, "I don't know what crime I have committed. Please let the officer know."
He was a great scholar, but he actually called an official from the Tiger Yamen "Chaye". He must have been afraid.

The people from Hu Yasi threw him to the ground and took Zhang Han and Shan Wenhao away. Shan Wenhao was still screaming.
The officer sneered and said, "Go ahead and yell, we'll see if you can still keep your nerve when we get to the Tiger Court!"
"Dad! Dad!" Zhang Ruoxi lay on the ground and cried.
