Su Shaoheng rushed off to find a warehouse, and Cheng Ying also went to the previous warehouse. After filling the warehouse that Su Shaoheng had found with goods, she returned to the Lin family with peace of mind.

Meanwhile, Crown Prince Ye Jinxuan and Ye Wuhen were also preparing to leave the palace. Of course, they only wanted to go out secretly and did not want to take anyone with them. Although they did not know what the situation was like outside, it would be very troublesome if they took someone with them!

One of these two men was the Crown Prince, and the other was the Emperor's younger brother. When the two of them ran away at the same time, one can imagine the huge commotion that would occur in the palace.

Taking advantage of the Dragon Boat Festival, the two secretly slipped away, one using the excuse of needing to urinate and the other using the pre-planned excuse of taking a casual stroll.

However, once outside, they were stumped because they had no destination and didn't know where to start looking.

Both of them knew at the same time that they had to leave the capital first before making any further plans, otherwise they would be caught and brought back soon after they escaped.

What the two were unaware of was that, because of their extremely important identities, the Emperor had long ago assigned them secret guards, and these guards had been instructed not to appear unless their lives were in danger.

The secret guards also had their own way of communicating. After leaving the capital, they knew of each other's existence, but they did not disturb each other.

Because Ye Jinxuan and Ye Wuhen's supernatural abilities were not very high at the moment, and they left the capital in a hurry, they did not notice the secret guards following them.

At first, when there were many people, it wasn't a big deal, but as they gradually reached a desolate place where there were fewer people, they began to notice each other.

Although they rarely met while in the palace, they had seen each other before at palace banquets.

When the two recognized each other at the same time, they were both stunned and muttered to themselves, "No way! No way!"

Even so, they ran into someone they knew. Since they saw each other, it wouldn't be right not to say hello, so the two walked forward while chatting and joking around!

Ye Jinxuan said with a forced smile, "Uncle, what are you doing here?"

Ye Wuhen asked in the same way, "Shouldn't you be in the palace? Why are you outside?"

After the two finished asking their questions, the colleague fell silent. The two just stared at each other, but neither could do anything about the other. Ye Jinxuan originally wanted to get rid of this royal uncle as soon as possible.

The two walked forward in silence. When they reached a fork in the road, Ye Jinxuan's eyes lit up, and he said, "Uncle, I'm going to take this road. You can choose whichever way you like!"

After saying that, he turned around and ran quickly down a road to the left. Ye Wuhen originally wanted to separate from this kid, but he felt that Ye Jinxuan was just a little kid, only nine years old. How could he let him run around on his own?

So, with no other choice, Ye Jinxuan hurriedly chased after him. After running for a while, he turned around and found that his little imperial uncle was chasing him closely.

So he quickly stopped, and when Ye Wuhen ran up to him, he asked helplessly, "Uncle, why are you following me?"

Ye Wuhen said impatiently, "You're so young. Aren't you afraid that child abductors will kidnap you? As the crown prince of a country, if you are used by bad people, it will be detrimental to the royal family. Listen to me and don't be willful. Go back obediently!"

Ye Wuhen thought to himself, "Do you think I want to take care of you? It's just that because of my status, I have no choice but to."

Ye Jinxuan was truly helpless; how did he end up running into this little imperial uncle?

"Uncle, I have my own things to do. If you have something to do, then go ahead and do yours. How about we don't bother each other?"

Ye Wuhen rolled his eyes and said helplessly, "Do you really think I have nothing better to do than follow you around when we finally get out of the house? I do have things to do, but you're too young, and I don't trust you to act alone. Even if you have someone with you by your side, I won't follow you."

Ye Jinxuan said, "Uncle, don't underestimate me just because I'm young. I'm capable of protecting myself. Besides, you're only a few years older than me. You should worry about yourself!"

In the end, neither of them could persuade the other, so they could only compromise and walk forward together. Ye Jinxuan asked curiously, "Uncle, why didn't you bring any guards? You just ran out by yourself. What are you going to do?"

Ye Wuhen was angry because he couldn't persuade Ye Jinxuan to go back. He said irritably, "Mind your own business! You're all alone and without anyone with you, hmph!"

After being rebuked, Ye Jinxuan angrily turned away and ignored him.

The two met without recognizing each other, were angry with each other, and were forced to move forward together.

If these two had exchanged just a few more words, perhaps they could have been more honest with each other and broken through the barrier to find out who the other was. However, due to their different identities, they missed this opportunity!
