The princess traveled through time for a year to help the prince build his kingdom and then left

"Your Highness, Gu Yidao sent a message saying that he has found a safe and reliable place to stay."

Li Yong reported carefully with a respectful look on his face.

Chu Tianxing nodded slightly, indicating that he understood, and then asked: "Where is it?"

"It is said to be in the northern region." Li Yong answered truthfully.

Chu Tianxing frowned and asked doubtfully:

"The northern area? Isn't that a slum? He has plenty of money. Did he rent a house there?"

"Your Highness, Gu Yidao has his own house over there, and he has a woman and a child as a cover."

Chu Tianxing nodded thoughtfully and said:

"That's good, the King of Yan is keeping a close eye on us right now.

It would be wise to temporarily avoid their attack and find a place to hide.

It won’t be too late to make long-term plans after the storm has passed.”

After thinking for a while, he emphasized:

"Gu Yidao is my last trump card.

You should contact him personally and be cautious. Try to cooperate with him in whatever he needs.

Also, tell him not to rush into anything. Make sure everything is safe before you act.”

"Yes." Li Yong accepted the order.

You hour, northern region.

This is a slum in the prosperous imperial capital, where the poor people in the city live in large numbers.

Most of the houses here are dilapidated, the streets are narrow and crowded, and most people living here do not have stable jobs and can only make a living by doing odd jobs.

In the eastern part of the northern region, the houses are slightly better and are generally occupied by workers with fixed incomes.

In an inconspicuous little courtyard, a family of three were sitting together enjoying dinner.

The house is not very large, with only three rooms facing north and south.

There is a pomegranate tree planted in the yard, and a dining table is set up under the tree.

At this moment, the food has been placed on the table. Although there are only two simple dishes and a soup, the meat and vegetables are well matched and look very delicious.

The man sitting at the table was tall and thin, with an ordinary face. He was so ordinary that it was difficult to leave a deep impression on people, but there was a unique aura lingering around him.

It was an aura of coldness and aloofness, as if he was out of tune with the world around him and was a world of his own.

Next to the man sat a woman, about twenty years old, with pretty face, beautiful eyebrows, white teeth and a rosy face.

Her eyes were as clear as water, and contained endless tenderness.

Her every frown and smile is full of feminine grace and softness, like a blooming flower, exuding charming fragrance.

She is like a beautiful girl from a small family, sitting there quietly, giving people a gentle and peaceful feeling.

The woman gently called the man beside her "husband", and the man affectionately called her "Yanhong".

Next to them stood a four-year-old boy, who was well-behaved and cute, like an angel descended to earth.

The woman gently stroked the little boy's hair and called him softly, "Doudou, come here, come to mother."

The little boy took his childish steps and threw himself into the woman's warm embrace, with a happy smile on his face.

At this moment, the breeze blows gently, bringing bursts of floral fragrance, making people intoxicated.

In this heartwarming scene, time seems to have stopped, leaving only endless love and affection.

"Yanhong, I heard your man is back?"

Before anyone arrived, Aunt Li from next door's loud voice had already reached the yard.

Aunt Li came in carrying a bag of old corn.

"My relatives from my hometown came to visit a few days ago and brought a lot of old corn. I'll give you some."

"Thank you, Aunt Li." Yanhong took it and turned to the man and said, "Husband, when you were not at home, it was all thanks to Aunt Li who took care of you."

The man raised his head, glanced at Aunt Li, and took out a silver ingot. "Thank you for your help, Aunt Li."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Aunt Li smiled brightly and put the silver away neatly.

Just as she was about to say something else, she saw the man's face suddenly return to its cold expression, which scared Aunt Li so much that she left quickly.

Yanhong seemed to be used to it. She looked at the man with a smile and was full of joy.

"Husband, how long will you stay this time?"

"Maybe half a month, maybe half a year." Gu Yidao replied vaguely.

His eyes revealed a look of relief, and he kept looking at Doudou, unable to move away for a long time.

A few alleys east of where they lived, there was a large courtyard.

Most of the people living in this yard are craftsmen who rent houses.

The landlord led a burly young man wearing coarse clothes into the yard.

They passed through several narrow corridors, past some dilapidated houses and piles of debris, and finally came to a secluded corner.

The landlord stopped and pointed to a door in front of him and said, "This is it."

The door looked a little old, and the paint on it had peeled off, revealing the traces of time.

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

The young man gently opened the door and stepped into the room.

There was a faint smell of dust in the room, the light was dim, and the walls were covered with mottled marks.

A simple bed was placed against the wall, covered with a rough quilt.

The young man closed the door after he entered and never came out again.

The landlord was walking back, and a curious person chased him and asked, "Brother landlord, what does this person do?"

"The cook of the reception building." The landlord simply replied and left in a hurry.

"Cook" Han Yijian was sitting on the bed in the cabin meditating.

By joining forces with Chu Tiancheng to deal with Gu Yidao, the chances of winning are much greater.

Han Yijian didn't find it strange when Liu Yunfeng came to Yuelai Inn to find him.

He also wanted to cooperate with Chu Tiancheng.

The two hit it off immediately. Liu Yunfeng stayed at Yuelai Inn, while Han Yijian disguised himself as Liu Yunfeng and went to the reception building.

After negotiating with Chu Tiancheng, Han Yijian returned to Yuelai Inn.

Liu Yunfeng returned to his original appearance and left. Han Yijian also packed up his things, checked out of the hotel, came to the northern region, and rented this ordinary house.

After analyzing Gu Yidao's personality traits, Han Yijian and Chu Tiancheng both believed that he would not buy a particularly luxurious house as that would be too ostentatious, so he would be more low-key.

Therefore, the house he bought might be in the northern part of the imperial capital.

Han Yijian then transformed himself into a cook in Yingbin Building, and with this identity he lurked in the northern region, searching for Gu Yidao among the vast number of houses.

Xu time, Prince’s Mansion.

Li Yong is still studying the map of the imperial capital.

The prince asked him to be responsible for the single-line contact with Gu Yidao, but Gu Yidao was very cautious and did not tell him his specific hiding place.

Li Yong had just received a message from Gu Yidao, who said that from now on they would communicate through his lover Yanhong.

Yanhong's workplace is in the Yingbin Building.

The private rooms on the second and third floors of the reception building offer talent show services.

There are people singing, playing the piano, dancing, and a large number of artists working here to earn money.

Yanhong is one of them.

Li Yong circled the words "Yingbin Building" on the map.

Then, he pointed his finger northward along the reception building, stopped at the northern area, and drew a question mark with a pen.
