The city was bustling with activity, but they had no interest in sightseeing and decided to find an inn to stay in first.

After all, inns are a good place to gather information; they are crowded with people and might provide some clues.

So the two headed toward a rather lively-looking inn. As soon as they entered, a waiter came out to greet them. Inside, there was a great deal of noise and chatter.

As the waiter ushered the two men inside, he said, "Gentlemen, you look so travel-worn. You must have just come from outside the city. Are you here for a meal or to stay the night?"

Ye Wuhen said, "Give us a superior room and bring us some water to wash up."

Upon hearing that they were looking for lodging and had requested a superior room, the waiter immediately called out to the innkeeper at the door and led them upstairs to the second floor.

"We have guests. We have a superior room available. Please follow me, gentlemen, and I will lead you there!"

The two were not short of money, so there was no need for them to compromise. They followed the waiter upstairs to the room prepared for them.

After washing up, the two stood at the inn window and looked out!

Looking at the crowds coming and going outside, it was a bustling market area with many businesses. The vendors' calls and chatter created a lively and prosperous scene.

"Uncle, how did we find them after getting here?"

Ye Wuhen frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Although this city is not small, we can't use the same methods as before!"

Ye Jinxuan nodded and said, "Yes, we finally managed to shake off the secret guards. If we use the previous method of having officials post notices, we'll be exposed immediately. How about we find some beggars to distribute leaflets?"

Ye Wuhen said, "Distributing leaflets is fine, but we need to change the content so that the guards don't realize it's the same leaflet."

"This is where things fall short compared to when we were in interstellar space. Back then, you could send a message that would reach not just one planet, but the entire galaxy. That was so much easier!"

"Since arriving here, I've really not used to life without a personal computer. Every time we go to a new place, we have to go through all this trouble to find people. Everything has to be done manually. This is the disadvantage of the lack of information in ancient Earth."

Ye Jinxuan said, "Then we should find Ying'er and the others even faster. Once we find Ying'er, we can use our personal computers."

Ye Jinxuan knew that they had stockpiled a lot of good stuff back in interstellar times.

Ye Wuhen's eyes lit up, but then his expression dimmed again as he thought of something. "But who knows when we'll be able to find that girl!"

Just as the two were worrying about what method they could use to expand the search area as quickly as possible, the imperial palace in the capital was in an uproar.

In the Cining Palace of the inner palace, lived the most honored woman in the Lin Yue Kingdom, the Emperor's mother, Empress Dowager Mu. At this moment, she said to the Emperor with concern, "Holy Hall, you must find Wuhen!"

“He’s only 13 years old and still has the mind of a child. He’s at a time when he’s curious about the outside world. He must have run away because he was playing.”

Ye Wuhen was the Empress Dowager's youngest son. She had this son late in life when she was middle-aged, so she doted on him exceptionally.

Emperor Ye Shengtang of Lin Yue Kingdom was exhausted and helpless when he faced his mother. He said helplessly, "Mother, to tell you the truth, not only did Wuhen run away, but even Crown Prince Jinxuan has disappeared."

Empress Dowager Mu exclaimed in surprise, "What? Even Jin Xuan is gone? Did the two of them plan to go out together?"

Emperor Ye Shengtang nodded and said, "According to the reports from the secret guards, the two should be together now, but they were shaken off halfway through the journey. We are now searching for them with all our might!"

The Empress Dowager was both worried and angry, saying, "These two children are 13 and 9 years old respectively. They have never seen the dangers outside and actually ran away secretly. They are really too ignorant."

The Empress Dowager suddenly remembered something and asked, "Does the Empress know that the Crown Prince has disappeared?"

The emperor shook his head. "I haven't told her about this yet, but it's only a matter of time before she finds out!"

The Empress Dowager sighed and said, "Let's keep it a secret for as long as we can. She has just finished her postpartum confinement and shouldn't worry too much. Just dealing with Ling Xuan alone is enough to keep her busy."

Ye Shengtang rubbed his temples. "I have already dispatched more people to search for them. I believe we will be able to find them soon."

Empress Dowager Mu knew that there was nothing she could do no matter how anxious she was, and said helplessly, "I hope so. I hope nothing bad happens to these two children."

Seeing the Empress Dowager's worried expression, Ye Shengtang also advised, "Mother, please don't worry too much. You must take care of your health."

"We can't make a big deal out of finding those two brats. We have to search for them secretly. Otherwise, someone with ill intentions might use this opportunity to harm them or threaten the royal family!"

"Well, Your Majesty, you decide what to do! In short, we must find them safely as soon as possible!"

"It's Mother Empress, don't worry! I'll take care of everything!"
