Loving the Naughty Empress

Chapter 186 - The Border Situation

Ni Sheng is sitting on the tea house in the small town north of Capital. He is getting the letter from Zhao Yu regarding his way to stall the emperor regarding his wife death. He asked him to find the body soon as Zhao Yu had already exhausted all possible ways to stall the emperor.

Ni Sheng is having a throbbing headache as Lin Yue's troop and Eagle troops under Xi Kai try to find the body in the forest, but they come up with an empty hand until Wang Bo is running inside the tea house.

'Wang Bo, I, Lin Yue with Ni Qing are in the northern border city of Dayu Kingdom. Bring the troops and prepare for the war.'

The letter from Lin Yue is lifting a huge stone from his heart. Ni Sheng can smile and look at the future again after reading the letter. They are rushing with the full troop of Lin Yue regiment and Eagle troop under the commander of XI Kai and march to the northern city of the border.

Lin Yue is going to the border gate when he got checked because of no name tag on his body. He is asking the soldier to relay the message to General Chu Bei Jie.  The general knows about General Lin Yue from the Capital with the Tiger troops.

Lin Yue is waiting on the horse for the lowly troop. He immerses his General aura when confronting his fellow military friend. It is not a long time for General Chu Bei Jie to walk out on the border door to check the person on the horse with general Lin Yue to realise the empress of Dayu Kingdom.

General Chu is rushing to the gate and kneeling down into Ni Qing.

"Forget the formality. We are going to be at the war soon. Let's go inside and prepare for the raging war. We have to defend our border soon," Ni Qing is commanding them before walking inside the city wall. They are going into the mansion of General Chu. Ni Qing is changing her outfit to be more appropriate than the Jurgen soldier uniform.

She is managed to get help from the madame Chu maid to get a shower and dressed before joining Lin Yue and General Chu in the study.

It won't take long before they can hear the commotion of people outside of the Mansion. Ni Sheng and XI Kai are going inside the mansion to find the person inside the study room. Ni Sheng is hugging her straight away to see her in one full body with only a scratch visible on her pale skin.

"You really make me have a heart attack and want to join you in the afterlife," Ni Sheng is crying while hugging her tightly. XI Kai is bowing on the floor after he manages to slip out of the palace to lead the eagle troop or the emperor is going to chop his body.

Wang Bo is rushing to his general and hugged him tightly. He is almost having his heart attack to see his general jump out the cliff that day. His heart sank down into his feet to remember those accidents.

"Enough, we have to get ready for the war. There is rebellion in the Jurgen country, and they are getting hands from someone from our own country. General Chu, have you found about something out of the norm the last few days?" Ni Qing is asking the old general regarding some lead and testing the general for his loyalty.

"There is nothing unusual in the city," General Chu is telling them while frowning his forehead to think something unusual.

"General, the vendor in the market get less day by day. Madame was complaining about it last few days when some of her usual merchants close their shop," One of the General maids told them which peek Ni Qing interest. It means the merchant in this city know about the revolt and they are fleeing from the city.

"General, the convoy for Jurgen to our Capital is getting ambushed. The troop under Grand Prince Jalantai is moving to our border to get an explanation about their attacked convoy," The soldier relays the message to the emperor.

"It is really shocking when they can receive the news before us in the border city. Is the weaponry ready?" Ni Qing is looking into the map of the border city.

"Yes, we just receive a batch of weapons from the capital city. It is inside the locked warehouse in the barrack," General Chu is leading the way. They are going to the warehouse in the city and as soon as they open the armoury to find out empty. General Chu's face is getting so red to hold his anger. He can't believe under his nose the armoury is empty.

"What do you have left?" Ni Qing is asking him regarding the whole situation.

"General, we still have a lot of arrows to use with the archery troops," One of the captains is informing the general in the group.

"We are going to find about this missing weaponry after the war in front of us. Wang Bo, find a lot of oil and cloth material. Tell all the soldiers to get ready with their full armoury," Lin Yue is getting concerned with this whole situation.

Ni Sheng is already sending the good news to Zhao Yu in the palace who is joining the emperor in the study. The Palace is persuading the minister about the concubine selection into the harem. They are sending their daughter to be one of the emperor women.

One of the best candidates is Han Tongxin as the granddaughter of Lord Jian. She is thriving into the final round of the concubine selection.

Zhao Yu is receiving the letter and it is piquing the interest of the emperor. one of the eunuchs is running into the study of the emperor regarding the attack on the Jurgen Convoy and they are preparing the retaliate attack to our northern border.

"Your highness, What should we do?" Zhao Yu is asking about the whole situation in the country.

"What is inside the letter on your hand?" the emperor is looking sharply and alert regarding the attack.

"They found the empress and the northern border is preparing for the war to defend our country," Zhao Yu is reporting to the emperor.

"Where is she?" Jin Yu is getting excited about the good news. He really did not care about their attack into his country as long as his wife was safe and alive.

"In the northern border city to lead the war with Lin Yue and Ni Sheng," Zhao Yu is kneeling in front of the emperor after he gives him the answer.
