The manager ran to the kitchen to summon Ni Qing. Jin Yu is keeping drinking the poison tea and feel a little bit hot while waiting for the manager to come back to his room. He did not aware that he got drugged from outside the palace. He was neglecting the fact to check his food and drink due to his excitement to meet the love of his life.

“Xiao Qing, meet the guest… he wanted to meet you and he is one of the people that we do not want to cross,” Mr Zhao explains to Ni Qing inside the kitchen. She just finished making a big batch of Caramel candy and lotus cake for the shop to survive until the end of the day. She decides already to serves another cake for tomorrow. She made Mung bean cake and cherry candied to get sold tomorrow in the shop. She is making a different type of dessert every day and the rest of the order can rely on the cook hire in the shop.

“Okay… I will meet him. Is he in the VIP room?” She asks after puts out the apron.

“Are you sure?” Mr Zhao is asking her. He needs reassurance from her action as he cannot force Ni Qing as she is the real owner of this shop. The only things he can force her to cook more lotus cake and caramel candy as it always sold out after fifteen minutes.

“I will go home after meeting him. Tell someone to listen about salt corruption in room six… we need to write up the whole important stuff” Ni Qing is instructing him.

“is general Lin Yue need it? When is he coming?” Mr Zhou who fond off with the young general.

“if I told you something means that A Yue need it? I do not know when he will come back here but if you are fond of him. I can send you to his barrack and live with the whole pool of man” Ni Qing said with a cold tone.

“Are you joking with me, young Miss? Despite my preference for handsome man, but the man inside the barrack is filthy… they seldomly take shower and their smell,” Mr Zhao is squirming his body to remember his old experience living inside the barrack before he knows Ni Qing and Lin Yue.

Mr Zhao forced to join the army as his family thinks about his sickness. Anyway, if you join the army or to the palace as a eunuch or maid, the government will give your family rice every month. Mr Zhao family is coming from a poor family with six kid. Mr Zhao is the third in the family and they find out about his sexual preferences. They decide to put him into the army where he got bullied and torment until he wanted to kill himself.

Ni Qing and Lin Yue are practising their war strategy on the riverside when they find about Mr Zhao attempted suicide. Lin Yue used his Chi Qong to rescue him. He starts to praise and fond General Lin Yue and swears his life to be loyal to Ni Qing. In his eyes, Ni Qing and Lin Yue are a perfect and ideal couple who complete each other. He is idolizing them and wanted them to sail ship together.

Inside the private room, Jin Yu is feeling uncomfortable and hot feeling creep out all over his body. Zhang is noticing his unusual behaviour.

“Your Highness, are you okay?” Zhang is asking him.

“I feel something weird on my body,” Jin Yu is telling him.

“Do you want to go back to the palace, your highness?” Zhang is coming closer to him.

“No… check where the girl is who make the dessert and book me some room on the inn opposite of the road,” Jin Yu is instructing his loyal bodyguard.

“Your Highness….” Zhang is trying to defy and protest his majesty. He is the head of the country and the son of the dragon who descends to lead this Dayu dynasty.

“Hurry… I still can hold it,” Jin Yu told to his bodyguard who rushed to book the room in the opposite inn.

Noble Concubine Chu manages to sneak out from the palace and rushes to the city centre after she reads the small letter from her father. She cannot believe that her father is helping to achieve her goal to serve his majesty the emperor. She has been married to the house of the crown prince as a concubine, yet he never touches her until he descends as the emperor. She rushes out from the Palace with her maidservant into the carriages prepared by her father to the tea house.

Ni Qing opened the private room where he holds her hand and brought her with him outside the tea house. Ni Qing was taken aback by his act, but she decides to follow him. Ni Qing knows to defend herself from a pervert and bad person, but this man in front of her is giving out a comforting aura. He took her into the room inside the inn on the opposite of the tea house, where Zhang is waiting outside the room door.

“Can you show me your name tag?” The emperor is asking her with his tremble voice.

“What can I help you, my lord?” Ni Qing is bowing to him.

“Just shows me your name tag…” Jin Yu tries to control his body with his Chi.

Ni Qing is taking out her name tag which has the same style as the name tag that stays on his heart. His eye is glistening to see the familiar, exact replica of the name tag on his chest.

“Did you ever lose your name tag?” Jin Yu asks her.

“How do you know it? I did not lose it but giving it to someone who needs it more,” Ni Qing is looking at him with an amused expression. Jin Yu can not express his feeling to see the name tag and the beautiful women stand in front of him. Finally, he finds her.
