Loving the Naughty Empress - Chapter 147

Jin Yu is taking care Ni Qing the whole night and sleeping with her. this time, Jin Yu is taking off from his daily duties and cancel all his meeting today. He wants to spend time with his wife and take care of her to recuperate. The view in this mountain also makes his mind become refresh after all the things happen from the last half of year. Jin Yu is giving himself a well deserve break.

He is snuggled more into his wife who still sleeping so soundly in her sleep. She is feeling better and did not feel anything weird in her body. She is also having the best sleep after a while inside her husband arm. But Ni Qing can’t feel her husband body lay next to her.

She is sitting up and stretching on her bed to release her stiff muscle from her sleeping position last night. She cannot find her husband, and this is not their original room. In her mind, she is thinking about the possibilities Jin Yu’s bring her back to the palace. While she still in deep contemplation regarding the room, the door is opening. The Consort Yin maid is coming to the room with another maid and tray on their hand.

As soon as they are curtsying into her. she is instructing the other maids to start helping her to change her into red wedding dress.

“I am already married… why are you putting this red wedding robe into me again? I want to meet with the emperor….” Ni Qing is refusing to get ready. She is complaining and trying to run away.

“Your highness the emperor already sold you to the crown prince of Yin Kingdom. This is a huge honour for you as a palace maid to become the only one our crown prince wife’s.” the maid is relaying the messages.

“Selling me… I do not understand it… I want to meet up with the emperor to hear by myself regarding about this decision,” Ni Qing does not want to accept the news. It is not the right decision made by his husband.

Ni Qing knows martial art and she was growing up in the military barrack and the war, it is not a hard thing to penetrate their defence. It took her only a minute to get away toward the room door before the security catch her.

“I am the noble consort of the Dayu Kingdom…. No one can lay their finger to my body before the emperor wrath will come upon you,” Ni Qing is telling them with his angry tone while they hold her tight on both of her arm. She tries to release herself from their hand.

“Your highness noble consort, we are not going to dare to subdue you unless the emperor words already come upon us,” The maid is trying to reason with her.

“I want to seek audience with the emperor. if he told as your word then I will wear the red wedding dress myself and get into the carriage to become the crown princess of the Yin kingdom,” Ni Qing is trying to find out the truth. She can’t believe her husband who doting on her tries to sell her into the other men. It is better if she is back with Lin Yue, or she can live in the herb valley with her master. She has enough good men around her without the emperor wishes to sell her.

“I am afraid, I am not allowed to meet with the emperor…” the maid is replying toward Ni Qing and force her to change with the red wedding dress.

“Quickly before the auspicious time is passing. Put her golden crown and cover her face with the veil. Is her make up almost done? She needs to use the red lipstick to avoid the bad luck,” the maid is telling her subordinate about to apply the red lipstick into her mouth.

As soon as Ni Qing is ready and already put the silver dragon shoes. There is two men going to carry her on their arm. Apparently, as the Yin Kingdom culture, Ni Qing eyes get to be close with the cloths. She can feel her body to be carry inside some barrel.

‘This is not right….’ Ni Qing is telling herself inside her heart. She only can wait for her faith to prevail the best for her life. It won’t take long before someone take her out from the stuffy barrel and opens her eyes. it is the handsome Lin Yue.

“Are you willing to marry me?” Lin Yue is muttering to her while holding her inside his arm. He looks so handsome in his armoury uniform.

“Wait… are you okay? Yue… are you really fine?” Ni Qing is looking at him who has deep stare with his gloomy look as if he waits for something really important.

“I am serious… rather than you are married to the Yin Kingdom as a thrown away widow and become the nation joker. I am willing to accept you as my wife,” Lin Yue is proposing to her with all his seriousness.

“Yue… I can’t as you know… I am still confused with all the thing happening so quickly and fast. Can you wait until I get the answer…?” Ni Qing is asking some more time from him.

“Qing, he is throwing you out from his harem and palace… everyone in this place already well aware that the emperor already cast you out…. I am trying to save your dignity,” Lin Yue still persuades her about the right decision to take regarding her future.

Out of sudden, Mo Feng is rushing to their side and kneeling in front of her. he is holding one of her hand and take it away from Lin Yue. He can’t believe this young man competent to steal his wife.

“Can we life together in herb valley?” Mo Feng is asking her hand. Ni Qing got confuses with both of them as if it too sudden to happen.

“Master Mo, can I find out first about my own life from my husband and I will definitely tell my decision to both of you,” Ni Qing is answering to his proposal before she walks away. The cart of the barrel is going out toward the palace gate. There is something weird about their movement. It is impossible for the two cart to come and goes at the same time.

Ni Qing is following from behind and take some space between them. Out of nowhere, the emperor entourage is stopping them with Zhang and Eunuch Wang take charge of the situation. She is tailing them to find out about the whole incident.

Consort Yin is walking next to the angry emperor. she can see his face drowning from the vinegar. Ni Qing need to find the confirmation of the story. She needs to approach the emperor when her hand got stop by Lin Yue.

“Do not expose yourself…!” Lin Yue is telling her on her ear to stop her to make ruckus if she wants to find out about the truth.

Ni Qing is nodding in agreement when he is actually making sense into the whole situation. Ni Qing can’t wait to see the play between the Consort Yin and her husband.

“Your highness, I am sorry to drag you like this, but my brother wants to kidnap your consort,” Consort Yin is acting all pitiful in front of the emperor.

“What with the barrel?” Jin Yu is asking her with a cold tone when he sees two carts of barrel in front of them.

“I heard my royal brother is putting the noble consort Qing inside one of the barrels… I betray my own family to proof my loyalty toward yourself,” consort Yin is reporting her intention about this whole situation toward the emperor.

“Zhang… Wang… find Qing…” Jin Yu is telling them to open the barrel and check one by one. Zhang actually kicked the barrel until it falls down to the ground. The first barrel already topples on the ground with the remaining water on the ground. The second and the third barrels also topples on the ground after got the hard kick from the emperor itself.

The barrel on the ground and the cover falls down on the ground to open with the people inside the barrel. However, it is not Ni Qing but the palace maid. She is kneeling on the ground to see the emperor with the angry Consort Yin.

“Why are you inside the barrel?” The emperor is asking her about all her way to hide.

“General Lin Yue is telling me to do it as he saves noble consort Qing…. I do this because of the noble consort Qing, your highness,” The maid is telling him with her face on the ground and full kneeling in front of the emperor.

“Where is she?” Jin Yu is raising his voice. He can’t believe his wife dare to elope with another man under his nose.
