Chapter 969: Found (2) Chapter 969: Found (2) Editor: Atlas Studios Everyone was very cooperative.
As expected, everyone in that section got out of their carriage.
Qi Haoran only glanced at them before waving his hand to let them pass.
No one expected to be allowed to pass so easily.
Seeing that Prince Rong really loved the people, they all knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him.
But in fact, Qi Haoran had only shouted that just to tell the two children in hiding that their uncle was here.
Hurry up and come out to receive your punishment!
Since the two boys werenât found in that section, of course, he let the travelers pass so that there wouldnât be chaos.
At a spot behind the fourth section of the road, Huang Renâs legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
It was only with Huang Chanâs support that he stabilized himself.
Merchant Tan looked at him in surprise.
At this moment, he vaguely recalled that the two children had addressed him as âUncle Huang Ren.â The first thought that came to Merchant Tanâs mind was that Huang Ren was a human trafficker, but he rejected the idea a moment later.
If he was a human trafficker, the two children would not be so close to him.
Moreover, the two children had had time to be alone with Merchant Tan earlier on, so they couldâve asked him for help if that was the case.
The second possibility that occurred to him was that these two children had an enemy, and their enemy had caught up.
And that enemy was the noble Prince Rong of Great Qi.
Merchant Tanâs legs also went weak.
The two children, who were already in a daze, turned over because of the noise.
Little Treasure said in a daze, âI think I heard Fourth Uncleâs voice.â The calmest amongst them, Huang Chan glared at Merchant Tan and pinched her brotherâs arm.
She said in a low voice, âBrother, bring Little Benefactor to Boss Tanâs case.
Boss Tan, if you dare to make a fuss, weâll say that youâre in cahoots with us.â Merchant Tan: âââŹÂŚâ Huang Chan was no longer in the mood to think too much.
She only felt that it was over.
Little Benefactorâs grandfather must have sent someone to capture them.
At this moment, she did not notice that the person who was here to capture them was Prince Rong.
Her ears kept ringing with Qi Haoranâs words, âHuang Renâ.
Huang Renâs situation was worse than hers, because it was his name that cold voice had called earlier.
If it were anyone else, Merchant Tan might have succumbed to the threat.
However, it was Prince Rong.
Merchant Tan admired Prince Rongâs unyieldingness and ability, and at the same time, he was scared of his iron-fisted methods.
How could he let Huang Ren hide the children in his case?
Merchant Tan opened his mouth and was about to shout when Huang Ren covered his mouth and begged with cold sweat, âBig Brother Tan, please do us this favor.
My young master is a good person.
HeââŹÂŚ they are bad people.
If my young master is captured by them, he will lose his lifeââŹÂŚâ Merchant Tan pulled his hand away, lowered his voice, and said fiercely, âHis family mustâve committed a sin.
Although Iâm very fond of the two children, my loyalty lies first and foremost with my country.â It seemed that the parents of the two children must have committed a serious crime for Prince Rong to capture them personally.
He did not dare to protect such a person, even though he did feel sorry for the two children.
Dumbfounded, Huang Ren asked, âWhat has it got to do with the country?â âYou shouldnât hope to get lucky either.
Since Prince Rong is personally capturing them, do you think you two can escape?â At the thought of the two adorable children, Merchant Tan closed his eyes and said in a low voice, âHow about this?
I wonât expose you, but you donât try to frame me either.
Letâs just pretend that we never knew each other.
Weâll leave it to fate to determine if you manage to get away.â Dumbfounded, Huang Ren and Huang Chan asked in unison, âWho did you say is here to capture us?â Merchant Tan pointed at the person sitting on the horse far away and said in a low voice, âPrince Rong.
Didnât you hear what His Highness called himself just now?
Who else would dare to call himself âI (the Prince)â in the Great Qi Kingdom other than Prince Rong?â The siblings exhaled at the same time and said happily, âThat means theyâre not here to capture us.
Itâs most likely just a person who happens to have the same name.â Little Benefactor was just the child of an ordinary official.
Why would Prince Rong bother with a small fry like him?
Merchant Tan looked at them suspiciously.
Seeing that they looked like they had just survived a calamity, he couldnât help but wonder if it was truly just a coincidence.
Huang Ren instructed his sister, âHurry up and wake up the young masters.
When His Highness comes to our carriage later, weâll cooperate actively.
Perhaps we can leave shortly like the people in the second section.â Huang Chan nodded and climbed into the carriage to call the two children.
It was difficult for Merchant Tan not to believe it now.
He heaved a sigh of relief and patted his chest.
âBrother Huang, you scared me to death.â A shout came from the carriage.
âFourth Uncle is here?!â Merchant Tanâs heart jumped again.
Little Treasure happily got out of the donkey carriage and stood on the shaft.
He waved at the person on a horse in the distance and shouted, âFourth Uncle!
Fourth Uncle!
Iâm here, Iâm here!â Qi Haoran looked over and rode over under everyoneâs dumbfounded gazes.
He sized him up and asked, âWhereâs your younger brother?â Little Treasure quickly pulled his sleeping brother out.
Qi Haoran snorted at him and personally carried Qi Wensu before placing him in front of him.
Another guard went forward to carry Little Treasure.
Qi Haoran scanned Huang Ren and Merchant Tan from head to toe and instructed the guards, âBring them along.
Letâs go.â The people in front of them made way for them, and the group quickly rode far ahead.
Huang Ren climbed up the carriage shaft in a daze and let the donkey run forward at fast speed.
At this moment, Merchant Tanâs limbs were also weak as he sat on his donkey carriage.
Huang Chanâs lips trembled as she said, âBig Brother, seems like weâre in trouble.â Huang Ren was still staring straight ahead.
Only after a long time did he say in shock, âHis Highness looks very similar to Benefactor Little Bearâs fatherââŹÂŚâ Huang Chan was speechless at her brotherâs intelligence.
Qi Haoran turned into a byway.
Compared to the bustling main road, there was no one on the byway.
But quietness was precisely what he wanted.
Qi Haoran found a patch of grass and placed the two children down.
With his hands on his waist, he asked them, âTsk, you sure are bold.
Running away from the palace?â Little Treasure lowered his head deeply.
This made Qi Wensu, who was looking up at Qi Haoran in admiration, appear very conspicuous.
Qi Haoran gently patted his little head and asked, âYou donât know how to admit your mistake?â Qi Wensu said happily, âI finally get to see a living Fourth Uncle!â Qi Haoranâs expression darkened.
âDonât tell me youâve seen the dead Fourth Uncle before?â âNo, Iâve seen Fourth Uncle in a portrait.â Qi Wensu said with sparkling eyes, âFourth Uncle is even more valiant than in the portrait.â âDonât think Iâll let you off just because you say nice things.â Little Treasure hurriedly said, âFourth Uncle, Second Brother didnât know that I was leaving the palace.
I was the one who brought him out of the capital.
If you want to punish someone, punish me.â âDo you think I wonât punish you?â Qi Haoran snorted and said, âDonât worry, when we return to Guangzhou, you wonât be spared.
Little Bear and the others are already lying in bed waiting for you to join them.â Little Treasure instantly became worried.
He wanted to ask about Little Bear, but when he saw his Fourth Uncleâs dark expression, he didnât dare to ask.
Qi Haoran placed his hands on his waist and looked in a certain direction accurately.
He sneered and said, âWho exactly set the protocol for the secret guards?
Iâm already in front of you, yet none of those secret guards spoke up.
Were they really going to search one by one?
Looks like the protocol has to be changed.â
