"Shortly after that, Caixiu, the embroiderer maiden, rushed over with a letter in her hand," Shopkeeper Hu's voice took on a more urgent tone. "Crown Prince Consort, I really don't know how things escalated to that point."
"It all happened so suddenly."
"Right there! Those two," Shopkeeper Hu pointed at the two middle-aged men and exclaimed, "They suddenly stormed into Butterfly Pavilion, shouting and causing a ruckus. Then, they started smashing and setting fires everywhere."
"In reality, there weren't many customers left in the shop at that time. Most had already fled when these two began their commotion."
"Boss Zhang and Landlord Li were clearly sitting at the entrance. How could they not have escaped?" Shopkeeper Hu expressed his confusion. During the chaos, while he was trying to deal with the unruly pair, he was also assisting the guests in evacuating, so he didn't notice Boss Zhang and the others.
