She closed her eyes and began to think about all this carefully.
The emperor passed away. The person in power in the court at the moment should have been the prince, but the prince went south for inspection a few months ago, and the entire capital knew about it. So, maybe the person in power is the queen?
The queen's natal family, if she remembered correctly, seemed to be Taishi Mo.
In the morning, those officials were just greedy for money at first. After giving him a drink, they left with satisfaction. But after learning about the relationship between Ruyizhai and the Tian family, they arrested him without any room for negotiation.
So, Grand Master Mo is taking action against the Tian family?
Hua Xiaogu retracted his feet and reached out to hug his knees.
The coachman was not arrested. He must have informed Lan Qing at this moment, and he would not be in any danger.
The officials didn't know she was Hua Xiaogu, so they probably just thought she was the shopkeeper of an ordinary wine shop. If she acted like this, I'm afraid the shopkeepers of many shops in the Tian family would be arrested.
Just as Hua Xiaogu was thinking this, she heard another bang on the cell door. She looked up and saw that it was indeed a group of officials pushing another person, throwing him into the cell, and then he left again. That person could be
He didn't have the same good luck as Hua Xiaogu. His feet were already shackled. Because they were heavy and his back was pushed hard by those rude officials, he couldn't control his balance for a moment. He threw himself into the prison and fell down.
On the ground.
"...Ouch." A shallow moan came from the direction of the man.
The light in the prison was extremely dim, and Hua Xiaogu couldn't see the person's face clearly, but the voice sounded very familiar to Hua Xiaogu. She squinted her eyes and looked in that direction carefully, and then opened her mouth slightly.
"Guanshi Hu?" Hua Xiaogu called softly.
The figure who was slowly getting up on the ground paused for a moment, then raised his head and looked in the direction of Hua Xiaogu.
When he raised his head, Hua Xiaogu finally confirmed that the person was Manager Hu from the wine shop. Manager Hu seemed to recognize Hua Xiaogu, and he softly called out in surprise: "Auntie Xiaogu..."
Hua Xiaogu immediately raised his index finger to his lips, signaling to Manager Hu not to shout out. Manager Hu immediately understood, silenced his voice, and walked over with only the heavy shackles.
"Why are you here? Have you been arrested too?" Manager Hu squatted beside Hua Xiaogu and said softly.
Hua Xiaogu nodded, secretly pointing to the men's clothes on his body, indicating to Manager Hu his identity at the moment. Manager Hu has never been a stupid person, and he immediately understood when he saw the men's clothes on Hua Xiaogu. Now they are both in prison.
, Hua Xiaoguruo’s identity as a woman is exposed...
"Yong'an, why were you arrested? Shouldn't you be...at the master's house?" Manager Hu immediately changed his mind and asked softly.
"Early this morning, I went to Ruyizhai... the master's newly opened wine shop to work on it." Hua Xiaogu briefly explained: "Manager Hu, you were also suddenly arrested?"
Manager Hu nodded and replied softly: "I came all the way just now, and most of the people arrested here are shopkeepers from various shops and workshops in the master's family. I don't know what happened."
Manager Hu, like Hua Xiaogu, did not panic after entering this prison, because they believed in the Tian family, and the Tian family would never leave any of their employees alone.
"The sudden chaos in Beijing makes people unprepared. Why do they want to arrest all the storekeepers of the Tian family..." Manager Hu muttered, and then sighed.
