It turned out that it was because of this. Luo Lan suddenly felt that the little beggar in front of him was very pitiful. He was the same age as An An, but he had to rely on begging on the street to make a living. Is An An also living such a life at this moment?
It turns out that poverty comes regardless of age.
She curled her lips slightly, sighed with empathy, patted him on the shoulder, and asked softly:
"Why are you begging? Where are your parents?"
The little beggar shook his head.
"I don't know. I don't know where they are."
"What's your name?"
The little beggar still shook his head.
"I don't know either. People call me a little beggar. I don't have a name."
The little beggar's words made Luo Lan's heart ache. According to the couple in Fanjiatun, An An also lost his memory. Could An An be hiding somewhere like this little beggar, not even knowing who he was or where his parents were?
She sighed distressedly.
"What a poor child, just like my An An."
After saying this, she turned back to Ah Cai and said:
"Give him a little more silver and let him find a safe place to sleep!"
If it were any other time, she would definitely help the little beggar find his parents, but now her mind was full of An An and she had no intention of caring about others.
Just as she stood up, the little beggar suddenly shouted:
"Sister, is your daughter's name An An?"
Luo Lan looked back at him and nodded.
"Well, her name is An An. She's probably around your age, and she probably doesn't remember who her parents are..."
As she spoke of this, her eyes began to well up.
The little beggar suddenly stood up from the ground, stretched his neck and said:
"I think I've seen her before. Doesn't she have big eyes? And two pigtails..."
Hearing what he said, Luo Lan looked back at him happily, put his hands on his shoulders again, and asked anxiously:
"Tell me, where did you see An An?"
The little beggar raised his head, pondered for a moment, and said loudly:
"She was taken away by the people from Yuhongyuan. She's at the intersection ahead..."
The little beggar's words made Luo Lan feel excited instantly. She hurriedly pulled the little beggar's hand and said anxiously:
"Take me to Yuhongyuan. If I can find An'an, I will definitely give you a good place to stay."
"Really?"
The little beggar followed her forward and asked eagerly,
"Sister, I'll help you find your daughter. Can you help me find my family?"
"Okay, sister will help you."
They walked along the street, and just when they were about to reach Yuhongyuan, the little beggar suddenly grabbed Luo Lan's hand and stopped.
"etc……"
"What's wrong?"
Luo Lan looked at him puzzledly, "Why don't you leave?"
The little beggar shook his head in fear.
"Sister, you're from the capital, right? You don't know much about Yancheng. I saw people from the capital all over the streets during the day. They also went to Yuhongyuan to search, but they found nothing. If I'm not mistaken, Sister Hong must have hidden your daughter. So, if we go looking for her rashly like this, we're definitely not going to find her. Besides, there are dozens of thugs in Yuhongyuan. If we go in, we'll be beaten to a pulp."
The little beggar's words reminded Luo Lan. Yes, a large number of officers and soldiers went to look for the person but couldn't find him. If a few of them went, they still wouldn't be able to find him if the other party didn't want them to find him. If they were not careful, they might even alert the enemy.
So, she calmed down and asked again:
"Tell me everything you know about Yuhongyuan, and I'll think about what to do."
The little beggar thought for a while and began to introduce,
"The proprietress of Yuhongyuan is called Sister Hong. She has a strong backstage in Yancheng and no one dares to mess with her. If I didn't think you had a good face, I wouldn't dare tell you about this even if I was beaten to death."
Having said this, he paused and continued:
"She often wanders the streets. If she sees a pretty girl, she'll spend a fortune to buy her back and have her work for her. If she refuses, she'll find ways to force her. At the very least, she'll just throw down silver and rob her. At the worst, she'll beat the woman's family half to a pulp, then throw down silver and let them go get medical treatment, and she'll still take them away. Her backing is incredibly powerful. In Yancheng, even if she kills someone, the government officials won't care. So that day, she took your daughter away in broad daylight. No one dared to speak of it, for fear of her revenge..."
The little beggar's words made Luo Lan's heart rise to her throat. She never expected that such a thing would happen in the small city of Yancheng.
Ah Cai angrily shook her sleeves and said bitterly:
"I will go back now to inform the prince and have him send people to wipe out the lair of Yuhongyuan."
“No…”
Luo Lan raised his hand to stop her and said in a deep voice:
"If it's really as the little beggar said, we really need to think about this matter carefully. Ah Cai, go inform the prince and bring Xiao Lingzi and the other three to Yuhongyuan to meet us. Don't make any noise or alert the enemy. Ah Hong and I will go there first to take a look."
"Princess, you can't go. It's too dangerous. Wait until the prince and his men arrive, then we can go together."
Luo Lan looked towards Yuhongyuan with a determined look, clenched his fists, and said hatefully:
"For An An, I will go even if it means going through mountains of swords and seas of fire. Besides, we made such a big noise today that the people in Yuhongyuan must be like frightened birds. It is difficult to guarantee that these people will not move An An away. We must prevent such a thing from happening."
