"When I see my nephew Jinghui, he should be able to recognize me."
Shen Lie kowtowed quickly and dared not doubt anymore.
Chen Rong stared at Xiao Huaichen blankly. Xiao Huaichen blushed and looked away, saying, "I'm sorry. Time passes quickly in the mountains. I hope you can forgive me."
Chen Rong smiled bitterly and said, "How can I blame you?"
"Fifth Prince."

The guards said nothing, and the Shen family father and son looked solemn.
