Jiang Xinghuo, a member of the tenth clan, chose to lie down and await death, entering a state of indifference in the prison. His greatest pleasure each day was chatting with the increasing number of inmates. 'Yao Guangxiao, the black-robed prime minister? His mediocre skills in slaughtering dragons mean nothing. Does he understand the periodic law of dynasties?' A bald inmate said, crushing his prayer beads. 'Zheng He's seven voyages to the west? It's a pity he didn't complete the circumnavigation and open the Chinese age of exploration.' A beardless inmate pondered as he looked at a newly-made globe. 'Emperor Yongle Zhu Di?

A middle-aged inmate suddenly stood up. 'Mr. Jiang, please become the Imperial Tutor!' 'Another mad conversation with an inmate? Don't joke, I'm waiting to die.'
