Loving the Naughty Empress

Jin Yu is actually listening to his wife request when he asks Eunuch Wang to bring all his work into the kitchen. He is reading all the report and make a little bit note on the report. Meanwhile, Ni Qing is quickly making some dessert for her husband. Eunuch Wang is assisting the emperor with all his task and serving him with a good quality tea.

Ni Qing is making a pumpkin cake with the lotus seed. She has it in her hand and scamper her step toward her husband. 

"Open your mouth!" Ni Qing told casually to her husband. Eunuch Wang and Eunuch Li are getting scared, and they do not dare to look into their boss. However, they want to know the reaction of the cold emperor.

Jin Yu is obediently opening his mouth when Ni Qing is stuffing his mouth with the cake. He is eating it from her hand. He pulls her into his lap before he kissed her. Lin Yue is witnessing the kiss get pierce by million needles in the centre of his heart. He does not realise that his hand got a sliver of cut on his finger due to their kiss. 

"Blood…. Blood…." Eunuch Li is going to Lin Yue and hold his finger to wrap it with the cloth.

"It\'s okay, Eunuch Li. I am fine," Lin Yu is holding the clothes to wrap his finger. Ni Qing is stopping the kiss and standing up to ward Lin Yue. She is smacking him for the cut on his finger.

"Why are you so stupid?" Ni Qing is helping him to put the medicine after Xiao Nie handed her the small bottle.

Jin Yu is seeing their close relationship almost complaining and does not like her to be in close contact with her ex-fiancée.  Ni Sheng realises the severe condition of this moment.

"Qing…. How many more pot that I have to make? Please start making the stir fry so we can serve this for the dinner," Ni Sheng is making the remark. He has made a thick porridge for the people on the street, and this is his fourth pots.

Ni Qing is taking out the big wok and make it hot with big fire on the stove. She laces the wok with vegetable oil before putting the garlic in. it is only few minutes before Lin Yue is helping her to put all the vegetable. She is tossing the vegetable around and giving some sauce before putting the salt and seasoning. The smell of delicious aromatic vegetable stir fry by Ni Qing makes everyone in the kitchen drooling to taste the food. Ni Sheng and Lin Yue are the first to queue in front of Ni Qing with heir bowl and chop stick. Eunuch Li is following them in the third in queue with Xiao Nie after them.

"Why everyone queues her food? is Li also queuing the food also?" Jin Yu is asking to his loyal eunuch after looking at them queueing for her food. he cannot deny her food smell like in heaven.

"I do not know, Your highness. Do you want me to queue for you?" Eunuch Wang is asking him politely.

"Do you think that I will stand there with the other?" Jin Yu gives him the remark. Eunuch Wang hurried to go and get the bowl in his hand. He tries to cut the queue when Ni Qing is screaming at him to get in line. Ni Qing is putting each person a portion of vegetable with some garlic flakes on top of it. they are enjoying the simple food with a bowl of thick porridge and bread stick. 

Eunuch Wang is serving the food on the small table for the emperor. Ni Qing saw that the bowl on his hand intended for her husband.

"Eunuch Wang, come here and get a bowl for you," Ni Qing is shouting from the side table before she moves the whole left-over vegetables in a big wooden serving bowl. 

"No Need, consort Qing… I am going to attend the emperor," Eunuch Wang is swallowing his saliva to hold the nice smell of the food.

"Eat… when I told you to eat then you need to eat. Everyone else is eating," Ni Qing is scolding Eunuch Wang who keeps looking to his master in worry. It is a big taboo for a servant to join a feast with the emperor.                                                             

"Follow the big boss order," Jin Yu is instructing him who is grabbing his portion of vegetable, porridge and bread stick and follow everyone to eat their food. 

They all are happy to eat the food cook by genius hand of Ni Qing. The first bites make the vegetable dancing in his mouth. The second bites get smacked with the garlic and the sweet onion and ginger. All the component inside the food will give nutrient and vitamin into the body.

  Jin Yu is trying this humble food for the first time. He is eating the same food as the others and his people. However, Ni Qing cooks the simple ingredient become such a luxurious dish. He scoops the thick rice porridge into his mouth and take a serve of vegetable into his mouth. He never feels such a heart-warming food in his life. He quickly devouring the food in front of him before he asks for the second serving. Apparently, the other already have their second serving while Ni Qing is cooking the third batch of the vegetable.

Eunuch Li is helping the others for their third serving while he is portioning for the emperor second serves. Ni Qing is busy in the wok to make at least five batch of the stir fry vegetable to help the nutrition of the body. As soon as they are finishing the food, they are helping Ni Qing to take off the boiled chicken egg.

Jin Yu is eating everything until the fourth serve before he feels contempt. It has been a long time for him to eat the warmest and delicious food like this. He is feeling so full when Ni Qing is instructing everyone to start sending out the food. the staff in the house already prepare some long table in front of the mansion. They are placing the food on the table and the guard is gathering people to queue for the free food.

It will not take a long time for the people to queue on the food. Meanwhile, Ni Qing is resting for five minutes when Everyone else still cooking in the kitchen. She is sitting in a corner stool and eating the porridge with the bread stick. She is dipping the bread stick into the porridge and eating it as if she is really hungry. She is finishing the food really quick when she is leading the kitchen team again.

Jin Yu is stepping outside to see the commotion of the people who is appraise the house of four season to give them a nice dinner meal. He is feeling good to see the people face and gratitude for a simple meal like this. In his heart, he did not wrong to take her as his consort as they are having the common goal.

Jin Yu can see the food is almost finish when the new batch of food is coming from the kitchen. Ni Qing is making sure the flow of the food caters for everyone hunger. People is crowding the surrounding and eating their food while it is still hot. The children are happy to be able to eat some simple food and vegetable. It is a good and expensive meal for them after a long period of time.

Ni Qing is yelling and screaming in the kitchen as if Lin Yue is leading the troops into the war zone. They are keeping the tally with the servant and the eagle troop to keep the food flow. In the end after almost two hours of serving time, the people is feeling full with all the food. Ni Qing is walking outside the mansion gate to see everyone happy and full face.

"Come again tomorrow lunch time to get some food…" Ni Qing is making announcement for the people. They are cheering for her.

"Your madame…. thank you for your kindness to feed this poor people…."

"I wish you and your family will be bless by the God for your kindness."

"Madame… is that your husband? Please said thank you for your handsome husband and may you will get blessed with a son for your husband as you care for us…"

Ni Qing feeling so contempt and holding his husband arm. She is knowing that all this is new for Jin Yu. He has to put his cold mask in his face as an emperor. however, deep down, he is a warm and kind-hearted person.

"You work hard today. Do you want some reward?" Jin Yu is whispering to his wife without even bat an eye when he asked her about the reward.

"Anything I want!!??"
