Yu Feng was a street thief with a reputation as 'the thief who has never gotten caught'. Until that one day...

Her capture threatened her to work for him. Her task? To carry messages and deliver them to each receiver—she became a runner.

The seventh prince, Prince Yi was fighting against time as they are trying to find evidence of the enemy trying to assassinate the Emperor. However, recently most of his messenger never reached their destination and this has caused them a huge loss. This was why he needed someone who knew the Capital City's streets and shortcuts to help him. 

When Prince Yi found out his runner's identity, he was delighted! But once Yu Feng found out the identity of the man she was working for, she tried to escape.

“Yu Feng, you dare to run away from me. This Prince had caught you once. Believe me when I say that I will catch you again.”

The Story of Yu Feng

In a blink of an eye, the day that the Empress had invited the nobles madam and their daughters to enter the palace to enjoy the flower viewing had arrived.

As the guests were all women, Qin Zhi Hao could not go in and accompany his wife to this party.

However, that morning, Qin Zhi Hao still went with Yu Feng to enter the palace together. He was planning to meet the Emperor to discuss a few work matters while waiting for his wife to finish. If anything happened to Yu Feng, he can always be close to her.

Yu Feng smiled helplessly. In her opinion, the Prince was worried too much. The Empress would not dare to bully her under everyone's watching eyes.

Moreover, she was going to enter the palace with her adoptive mother, Madam Zhou as well as Madam Gu. Consort Xian was in the palace and will be joining this party as well. She had too many people looking after her.
