"Excuse me, sir, what happened in this city? Why is the gate closed?" the coachman asked cautiously.

Perhaps because the officer was in a good mood, he rarely spoke up to explain, "There was a notice from above saying that there were traitors in the city who needed to be arrested, so the gate was closed."

As soon as these words were spoken, the driver immediately realized that it was impossible to leave the city tonight. He slowly turned the carriage around and said to Su Zhizhi inside, "Miss! You heard what the officers and soldiers just said. What are you going to do next?"

After hearing this, Su Zhizhi showed a smile that was uglier than crying. She had no money on her now, so what could she do?

After much deliberation, Su Zhizhi still refused to give up and said, "How about this? I'll stay at your house tonight, and then see what the situation is tomorrow to see if the city gate is open. If it is, we'll leave immediately. This way, you won't have to run around looking for me. What do you think?"

Su Zhizhi asked tentatively.

The driver was slightly stunned when he heard this. After thinking for a while, he finally agreed with Su Zhizhi's suggestion, "Okay! Then let's do as the girl says!"

After all, he couldn't think of a better solution than this for the time being.

Seeing that the coachman agreed to her suggestion, Su Zhizhi's face lit up with joy.

In this way, Su Zhizhi followed the coachman back to his home.

The driver turned left and right and finally came to an alley, then stopped the carriage in front of a house.

"Okay, the girl has arrived at my house." The driver greeted Su Zhizhi.

Upon hearing the sound, Su Zhizhi got off the carriage and followed the coachman into the yard.

Hearing the noise in the yard, a woman with a child of seven or eight years old immediately ran out of the room.

The woman froze in place when she saw Su Zhizhi. She looked at the driver with a puzzled look and asked, "What is this..."

"This is my guest. I was going to take her to the flower town, but for some reason the city gate was closed today. So in order to save time, she temporarily stayed at our house. We will rush there early tomorrow morning to see if the city gate is open." The coachman explained.

When the woman heard this, she immediately revealed an expression of sudden enlightenment and said, "Oh, so that's how it is. Very well, then you are our guest. Please come in!"

After saying that, the woman pulled Su Zhizhi into the house.

At this moment, a group of yamen runners suddenly broke into the yard from nowhere.

"Stop right there!" the leading bailiff shouted.

The sudden appearance of the bailiff made everyone present stunned, and even Su Zhizhi seemed particularly surprised.

The yamen runner casually walked up to Su Zhizhi, looked her up and down, and suddenly waved his hand to the officers and soldiers behind him, saying, "Come here! Quickly arrest her! This person is suspicious and looks very similar to that traitor."

Su Zhizhi retorted, bewildered, "How is that possible? You must have arrested the wrong person. How could a weak woman like me be a traitor?"

"Shut up, what I said is true." The bailiff scolded Su Zhizhi.

After saying that, he signaled his men to cover Su Zhizhi's mouth with a towel to prevent her from speaking.

"Okay, it's much quieter now. Let's go check the next one." Seeing Su Zhizhi's frustrated look, the bailiff immediately showed a very satisfied smile.

Just like that, Su Zhizhi, who was tied up, was hurriedly stuffed into a carriage by the yamen runners. After being stuffed in, Su Zhizhi was stunned by the scene in front of her. She saw that the small carriage was full of women. Suddenly, Su Zhizhi had a bad premonition in her heart.

As the carriage swayed, Su Zhizhi and the others arrived at the suburbs.

Suddenly, the voices of the yamen runners rang out from outside the carriage, "Quick! Get them all off!"

Just like that, Su Zhizhi and the other women in the carriage were driven off by the yamen runners.

Su Zhizhi looked around and found that they had actually arrived at a completely unfamiliar courtyard. Standing in the courtyard was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She stood with her hands on her hips and pointed at the others in the courtyard fiercely, "What are you looking at? Hurry up and get them out and take them out to wash and change clothes."

After that, the old lady took out a thick money bag and handed it to each yamen runner. "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. This is some money for your tea and water."

The officer weighed the heavy money bag with his hands and immediately revealed a satisfied smile. "Okay, then I'll leave these people to you, Madam. Thank you for your hard work. We'll be leaving first."

"Okay, please take your time, everyone." The nanny said respectfully.

At this time, Su Zhizhi had nothing to understand. The so-called arrest of traitors was just an excuse for them to cover up their dirty dealings.

Thinking of this, a disdainful smile appeared on Su Zhizhi's lips.

In this way, Su Zhizhi followed the other girls in the car into a room, and then a special maid helped them to wash and dress up.

With the help of the maid, Su Zhizhi was dressed up very beautifully, and people couldn't take their eyes off her at first sight.

Obviously, the nanny also realized this. As soon as she entered the room, she noticed Su Zhizhi hiding in the corner. She looked straight at Su Zhizhi in front of everyone and said, "Come here, come here and stand in the front."

Su Zhizhi wanted to resist, but when she saw so many of Mammy's men around her, she gave up the idea. She pretended to be very well-behaved and walked in front of Mammy. Although she wanted to resist and escape from here, she was alone and weak.

She knew very well that one cannot defeat another. If she failed to escape and ended up being beaten up, it would not be worth it. Thinking of this, Su Zhizhi decided to listen to the nanny's words first. After she got familiar with the place and found an opportunity, she would plan her escape carefully.

The nanny was very satisfied to see Su Zhizhi's timely behavior.

The other girls in the yard were also dressed up beautifully, and their clothes were all thin and very suggestive.

Su Zhizhi lowered her head and pulled at her clothes, trying to cover her whole body, but she was always discovered by the nanny and then torn away.

Su Zhizhi's face looked particularly ugly, but there were people all around her, so she couldn't act rashly. She could only wait and see what this group of people were going to do.

After a while, the group of girls including Su Zhizhi were dressed up, and each one was quietly sent into Honglulou through the back door like an exquisite gift. It was the most famous brothel in the county. Even Su Zhizhi, who was far away in the flower art town, had heard of it.
