Loving the Naughty Empress

Chapter 27 - His Plan

Lin Yue, Ni Sheng, Yu Hong and the old General Lin are sitting in the common tent with the surrounding terrain mapping on the middle of the room.

Jin Yu is entering the tent with all his gracious aura. Everyone in the room is bowing to him as a respect and devotion for his grace.

"Old Lin, I did not expect you to be here. What is brought you here?" Jin Yu take a seat into Lin Yue work desk which change into Jin Yue throne seat.

"I am afraid my little brat will not able to carry the mission to assist you, my emperor. I am here to guide him," General Lin is answering him with his diplomatic and ambiguous answers.

"Or do you afraid that yours little son head will roll on the floor because of me?" Jin Yu is threatening him back. The court is Jin Yu everyday battle. It is not hard to defeat an old General Lin when he never involves into politic. Old General Lin is almighty hero in the war but in the politic battle, he still a comrade compares to Jin Yu.

"I am not dare, Your highness. All of our life is on your hand. It is your wish to dispose of our life," Old General Lin kneels on the floor with Lin Yue and Ni Sheng follows.

"Who dares to hurt my father? He will court death from me," Ni Qing voices can be heard from the entrance as she walks into the tent before she curtsies to her husband.

"No one… Let's not waste the time here. Yu Hong, how many generals are loyal to you?" Jin Yu is asking him.

"I will gather them. I can vouch almost most of them will plea their loyalty to me," Yu Hong is answering with confident.

"Lin Yue… I need you to sneak into their military to put some poison through their rice to weaken their soldier strength. Later on, we need to send a sneak in soldier to assassin their general in charge for the attack. I believe if they are leading the army, it means you do not want them in your army, King Yu Hong," Jin Yu is giving out his order.

"How potent is your poison? I do not want to sacrifice the soldier as they are only pawn," Yu Hong is still concerning his people.

"It will only give them sickness on their stomach and will not be able to fight," Jin Yu is smiling cunningly. Ni Qing is sitting on the side to listen his idea. It means, his plan is to attack from inside their army. He will sneakily use his strategic to lower the inside pillar and attack the city from all around the direction. She is sitting in her seat without doing anything rather than nod agree to his husband. She hears about his ruthless reputation to deal with the war and rebel people, and she witnesses it by herself.

In Jin Yu mind, he wants to finish this problem quickly so they can go back to capital. He cannot let her stay longer in the place surround with man. This is not acceptable for him. Lin Yue is listening and do his action quickly. Ni Qing is standing up and want to walk him out from the tent.

"Where are you going?" Jin Yu is asking her.

"I am going to brief the situation to Lin Yue. This is my area of expertise, your highness. I also need to contact my people inside the refugee camp to help out," Ni Qing eyes glitters with excitement.

"Miss… you are not going to do the disguise like last time again," Xiao Nie is complaining to her miss.

"Why not? I am back safely," Ni Qing is answering to her loyal servant.

"You are not going to do any disguise… how many times it is going to go wrong and cost your life?" Lin Yue is flicking her forehead.

"It's fun… I am going… you can come if you want," Ni Qing is walking through to her tent. However, her step gets stop by someone who pull her back clothes.

"Where are you going? Did you curtsy to me before leaving the tent?" Jin Yu is giving out his stern look.

"En…" Ni Qing is curtsying to the Emperor.

"Where are you going?" He still holding her hand this time.

"I am going to go to the refugee camp to do some investigation," Ni Qing is telling him naively as she starts to treat him as a normal person and not as the Emperor.

"You are not going anywhere… If you dare to go out one step outside this barrack then I will chop your leg. Zhang, tell anyone who see her to step outside this barrack to capture her for the crime of not obeying the royal decree," Jin Yu is telling sternly to everyone.

"Your highness… You are not serious right?" Ni Qing tries to complain to her husband.

"This is a royal decree… anyone dares to defy my word and help her to go outside this barrack will punish with the same crime with her," Jin Yu does not flinch his facial expression when he told his final instruction. He walks back to the tent without any reservation which makes Ni Qing following him.

"You are not serious, right? You are literary confine me inside this wall… why?" She is sulking at her husband when following him inside the tent.

"You are not going anywhere period. You are my wife, and this is my responsibility to take care and shield you from any danger," Jin Yu said to her sharply to make her understand her status.

"You are too much…" Ni Qing is stomping her feet outside the tent to her own tent. She is sulking on her bed because of her freedom. She cannot defy her husband as the emperor of the country. It means that she will put her whole family to be in the danger. She feels agonising with his decision to keep her inside the barrack.
