Loving the Naughty Empress

Jin Yu and all his entourage are inside the tea house unaware about Ni Qing plan to seduce Jeong in the party with her beauty trap. She is having the information about the issues in his marriage, and he is actually sneaking in woman to satisfy his urge in his room. Apparently, Ni Qing hear some rumour about his wing man who is dealing with all his shadow business. 

No one know that Ni Qing also has her shadow troop that gives her all their investigation. They are still busy to follow the bread crump to the weapon smuggle. There two or three people already embedded inside Jeong\'s shadow troop. He is making his image as the perfect family man and good minister. He even gives out some rice and staple once a month to the people.

Ni Sheng is using Ni Qing connection to get them the invitation unaware about the plan ahead in her palm. She needs their protection if something goes south in the party. She makes sure the extra reassurances for her safety and put their name into the guest list. 

Ni Qing is sitting on her desk while she is directing the troop of the dancer for their performance. She cannot afford for this disguise to be blown out. She is touching up her make up while she is directing Mr. Chen for the guest who already arriving in the party. Mr Jeong is arriving with all the ambassador from the neighbourhood country and includes some few leaders from the bandit group.

Ni Qing is arranging Jin Yu to sit in the seclude booth but really close to the stage. Jeong and his subordinate will not be able to see their face. However, Ni Qing needs to cover her husband identity on this investigation. They are already in their place and get their drink and food flow into their place, while the entertainer is already starting their performance in the show. The entertainer and escort girls are serving the wine to each guest while the host is welcoming them in the stage. 

The best escort lady from Ni Qing side is serving Jeong and the leader of the bandits. She needs more information about their presence in this gathering as it is not normal to attend the event in one place. 

Ni Qing is a bit jealous when Jin Yu is drinking the wine with the escort girl on his arm. It seems her husband really enjoy the accompaniment of the beauty. There is a change of plan from the host when he wants her to do sword dance with the sword from them. However, it is not a sword that they are providing but a spear who is coming from the military.

"Our boss wants you to dance with this weapon!" one of the subordinates from the host come and informs them in the office room.

"Why the short notice? This is not something that can be change in last minute," Mr Chen is refusing his request.

"DO not make it hard. You know our boss is not someone you can offend so easily,"

"No…. you do not have the power to dictate us. If you are not contempt with our service then we are happy for you to walk out and I will refund the money to you," Mr Chen is getting work up. Ni Qing chooses him as this place confidant because of his characteristic. He is not afraid and scares with he intimidation from the powerful people for keeping the business reputation intact.

"Mr Chen, it\'s fine. I can do it, but this change is not cheap. They will need to pay us triple the original price as the change is coming last minute." Ni Qing is speaking out from the back of the room divider. She is not yet wearing her face veil, so she needs to hide her face.

"This is day light robbery. Do you know anything about our boss?" the host\'s staff get angry with her proposal.

"I do not care but if your boss able to pay and use this whole venue means that he is powerful and rich enough. However, he does not want his identity to be opened up in the air. This venue is providing all in service and keeping a high confidential about the host identity or his business. As long as you are paying us than I will be happy to comply your request," Ni Qing is telling them with her stern voices. She needs to be strong and stern to face this kind of people base on her experiences and she is a businesswoman. If she is getting soft and weak, people will take advantages from her as woman.

"We have to ask from our boss, and we will inform you," they are telling them about the decision before they are leaving the room. The best part from their stupidity is leaving the weapon box in the room. As soon as they are leaving, Ni Qing is opening the wooden box and taking one of the spears. She is well aware the spears coming from the military or the armoury. She is sneaking out one of them and hide it in one of the wardrobes. In the spears, there is a mark as one of the properties of Dayu Kingdom with the seal of Jin Yu as the emperor.

They are coming back just in time before the time for the performance and agrees to pay the price three times than the original price. Apparently, this is one of the way for them to showcase the weapon in the open. And she needs to figure out their way to communicate the bidding.

The leaves the room when Ni Qing is stepping out from the open and hold one of the spears in her hand. She needs to change her dance into the powerful dances. She is making arrangement with Mr Chen and tweak the dance. This time, she is changing her costume into the alluring one which is going with the spears. 

The host in the stage is welcoming and informing everyone about the main dance. The stage turn dark as the night is coming with the star on the sky. The music starts to play in the background mysteriously. The smoke starts to go into the stage direction.

The supporting dancers are coming out and starts their choreography. They are dancing beautifully and alluring to open up the dance perform by Ni Qing. She is walking through the centre of the stages and dance with the spears in her hand. She is wearing a face veil but her red lipstick with her makes up makes her performance alluring and tempting in same time.

"The main dancer lead is looking deadly beautiful and really familiar," Ni Sheng is eating the food from the hand of the girl escort next to him.

"Her face seems familiar…. Where did we meet her? is she working in Ni Qing place?" Lin Yue also thinks her face and figure seems familiar.

They are not aware about the changes of expression from their emperor. his face is turning darker and darker while he is drinking the wine. Zhao Yun is smiling to see the noble consort behaviour in front of him. she is really a beauty which can make all eyes glued to her.

This time, Jeong is biting the bait throw by Ni Qing. He is asking one of his trusted shadow persons to find out about her. He needs to move on from the stupid empress and this girl seems nice and really beautiful. It is a pity if she will be working in a brothel or dance for a lot of people. He will be able to make her as his concubine.

Jin Yu blood and rage is boiling through his head. His face is looking with the deadly stare to everyone who is daring to look at ravishing body. Her wild and alluring beauty entrapped many men in the venue. He can not hold it anymore when he crushes the porcelain wine cup in his hand. The lady escort is getting confused with his sudden changes.

"My Lord, your hand is bleeding," The escort lady is holding his hand to clean it. however, Jin Yu is standing up from his seat. Thankfully with the careful consideration from Ni Qing, no one aware with his action.

"Your highness, you are going to blow your disguise. Please hold your anger. I will find out about your highness noble consort condition and her goal to be in this party," Zhao Yun is clasping his hand and bowing to the emperor. Jin Yu is remembering about his role in this party, so he sits down and gulps down almost a jar of wine to ease his hot blood anger.

"SO you said the alluring girl on the stage is my sister, Ni Qing," Ni Sheng is looking surprised. Lin Yue is smiling to see her make the move ahead in this investigation.
