After Fang Chuning and Xie Jue went around from the side, they were heading out of the mansion, but unexpectedly were stopped before the second gate. County Magistrate Zhou was unwilling to risk the crime of killing Xie Jue, so he wanted his steward to take the risk of annihilating the family. Consequently, the government officials were all watching Xie Jue and Fang Chuning, preventing them from leaving the yamen. Fang Chuning and Xie Jue had no choice but to use the main gate to leave. There were too many government officials in the yamen. Xie Jue initially planned to leave quickly while County Magistrate Zhou was unprepared, but didn't expect to be stopped.
County Magistrate Zhou hurriedly came over after hearing the news and said with a smile, "Your Highness, Great General, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Please stay in the yamen; this humble official still has many matters to consult with Your Highness."
