Chapter 612 The frightened An An
Laifu's words made Sister Hong fall into deep thought. Just when she didn't know what to do, someone rushed in,
"Sister Hong, it's not good, the officials are searching from house to house, and we are about to arrive at Yuhongyuan."
Sister Hong stood up from her chair in fright. At the same time, An An followed the women and gathered around Sister Hong.
"Sister Hong, what are the officials looking for? They won't cause trouble for our Yuhongyuan, will they?"
"Yes, we are not afraid of the official officials in Yancheng, but I heard that the official officials this time are from the capital."
An official from the capital?
When An An heard these words, her eyes suddenly lit up. This was a good opportunity to escape.
Sister Hong glanced at her, raised her hand and angrily said:
"Why are you making all the fuss? He looks like he has never seen the world. How about an official from the capital? He's not even a man."
Speaking of this, she looked at An An, waved her hand, and reminded her in a low voice:
"An'an, these official messengers are evil. You are young and have never seen this kind of world. Don't be frightened. Let Laifu take you upstairs to hide."
An An looked at Sister Hong with wide eyes and shook her head pretending not to care, "Sister Hong, I'm not afraid. I want to see what the big shot from the capital looks like."
"no."
Sister Hong's voice suddenly rose. At the same time, there was a sound of opening the door. Sister Hong quickly winked at Laifu. Laifu covered An An's mouth with one hand and picked her up with the other hand and ran straight to the stairs.
Go up.
An An wanted to break free, but Laifu's hand was too strong and she couldn't break free at all.
At this moment, a group of officials rushed in. After entering the house, those people stood in two rows and made way for them. After a while, Leng Xi walked in, dressed in white and holding his hands behind his back.
Sister Hong rushed over with a smile on her face,
"Hey, who is this guest? There are plays in the entertainment house during the day, and there are good things to do in the evening. You are here early."
Leng Xi glared at her disdainfully, waved to the person behind him,
"Search for me, don't miss every corner."
"Hey, sir, where are you making this fuss? My Yuhongyuan has always abided by the law in doing business. How can you just search me? What should I do if you scare the girls here?"
As she spoke, Sister Hong took out a piece of silver from her sleeve and secretly stuffed it into Leng Xi's hand.
Leng Xi frowned and scolded her with cold eyes:
"Bold, you dare to blatantly bribe me. You are so courageous."
The official behind her also warned her loudly at this time:
"This is Lord Xi from Daning Kingdom. Do you want me to pay you this little money? Get out of here."
Hearing these words, Sister Hong's face instantly turned pale. Prince Xi? I have heard that he is not a good person. Why did he come to her Yuhongyuan to search for people today? This may be something bad.
Thinking of this, she suddenly fell to her knees in fright and kept begging,
"The woman didn't know that Prince Xi was coming, and she hoped that Prince Xi would forgive her. She didn't know what Prince Xi wanted to find. The woman certainly didn't dare to hide it and not report it, so she asked Prince Xi to tell me."
Leng Xi watched the officials rush upstairs, snorted coldly at Sister Hong, and asked:
"Have you ever had a little girl come here?"
Sister Hong's expression was a little nervous. She peeked towards the stairs with her peripheral vision. When she saw that Laifu had disappeared with An An, she felt relieved and replied:
"My lord, are you kidding me? Look, here we are all grown women, where did this little girl come from? I didn't expect that you still have this hobby. Oh, by the way, that girl is the youngest here.
Can you look at her?"
Leng Xi snorted with a frosty face,
"Don't talk nonsense, the second young lady of Prince Yu's Palace is in your Yancheng. Even if Yancheng is turned upside down, the second young lady still has to be found. It's better if you haven't seen her. If you have, don't tell her. Don't talk about you Yuhongyuan.
The door must be closed, and your mouth must be shut completely."
When he said this, he half-leaned his body and looked at Sister Hong, with a look in his eyes that made people dare not look directly.
Sister Hong nodded hurriedly, raised her handkerchief to wipe the sweat from her forehead, and replied:
"The civilian woman understands that the civilian woman has never seen it. If you don't believe it, just search it casually."
A cold look appeared at the corner of Leng Xi's mouth. He swung his sleeves, sat on the chair where Sister Hong had just sat, and waited quietly for the searchers to come down.
An An was taken to the utility room by Laifu. He covered her mouth tightly, fearing that she would make any noise.
The sound of officers searching the room came from outside, and Laifu said bitterly in her ear:
"Don't make any noise. These people are bad people. If they find you here, you will die."
An An didn't believe it. These people were officials from the capital, maybe people under her father's command. She wanted to go out and have a look, but she couldn't move. Her arms were clamped tightly by Laifu, and her mouth was also clamped by Laifu.
He covered it tightly with his hands.
The door outside was opened, and several officials rushed in. They searched here and there, but in the end they could not find Laifu and An'an.
Just when An An was thinking about how to make some noise, an official said:
"Report to Prince Xi, there is no one here."
Prince Xi?
These three words made An An's heart suddenly rise to her throat.
Could it be that Leng Xi was looking for him? Did he find himself running out of Fanjiatun and come to find him?
She held her breath in fear and did not dare to move.
It wasn't until the noise outside disappeared that Laifu breathed a sigh of relief and threatened in her ear:
"Don't make a sound, or you will die."
An An shook her head vigorously, indicating that she would make no sound, and Laifu let go of his sore hands. He quietly peeled away a pile of debris in front of him, and when he saw no one was outside, he stuck his head out.
An An sat there without moving, Laifu turned around, frowned and cursed:
"Come out, where do you want to celebrate the New Year?"
An An shook her head timidly,
"Didn't you just say that those people are bad people? I'd better stay here for a while and wait until they leave before going out."
To her, Lengxi was indeed a bad person, a very bad person.
An An's actions surprised Laifu. He originally thought that this little girl would go crazy and rush out to ask for help. Unexpectedly, she really believed his words.
A proud smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he nodded,
"Then you wait here obediently. I'll go out and take a look. When those people leave, I'll call you."
An An nodded obediently, "Okay."
She really won't go out before Lengxi leaves here.
Rather than letting Leng Xi catch him, it would be better to stay in Yuhongyuan, and maybe there would be a glimmer of hope.
The people who searched Yuhongyuan came back one by one to report, but no trace of An An was found. Leng Xi stood up, waved his sleeves, and said bitterly:
"Walk……"
Sister Hong's hanging heart finally let go.
She looked at Leng Xi's back, stood up from the ground, waved her handkerchief, and shouted softly:
"Prince Xi, come and play if you have time in the evening. I have the best girl here. I guarantee you will be satisfied..."
Seeing Leng Xi leading the people away, Laifu quietly ran downstairs.
"Sister Hong, I guess that girl's amnesia is real. She doesn't yell or yell, and she's still hiding in that pile of junk."
Sister Hong sighed and shook her head with regret.
"It would be great if she keeps losing her memory. Then I can keep her, but I'm afraid..."
"Yes, I'm also afraid that she may regain her memory at some point, and then she will know her identity. Then we will get into trouble. In my opinion, this matter should be done sooner rather than later. Let's take action tonight.
