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

After preparing to move to the north, the family of four entered the palace with only a few days left before their departure.

Consort Xian looked at her two grandsons and tears welled up in her eyes, knowing that after this, it would be hard for her to see them again.

Little Yi Chen tilted his head and looked at his grandmother with a puzzled expression. "Grandmother, are you alright?"

Consort Xian carried the little boy in her arms and kissed his chubby cheek repeatedly. "Well, I just missed you a lot."

Qin Yi Chen giggled. "Grandmother, how can you miss me when I am still here?"

"I will miss you when you leave the city a few days later."
