Loving the Naughty Empress

The emperor is reading the secret letter from Ni Sheng and call Zhao Yu into his study. He is having some time before the convoy arrives in the city and enters the palace.

"A Hui tribe is on the moves. What should I do?" Jin Yu is massaging the temple of his head to ease the headache. He can't believe they dare to kidnap his wife.

"Who is An Hui tribe? I hear about their notorious deeds but I am never clear about their movement or rebellion," Zhao Yu is telling his emperor regarding this group. His mission is to distract his emperor from occupying his mind and not remembering about the missing empress.

"I am also not really clear when my royal father is annihilating their tribe, but they have created such big chaos in the country. Let's me find out on the royal archive to know the real story of this tribe," Jin Yu is telling him.

"How do you know about An Hui tribe arisen?" Zhao Yu is asking the emperor regarding the tribe.

"I will ask you about the whole stuff to be a secret and it can't be told to anyone pass this room. Do you understand!" Jin Yu is telling him with his serious poker face. He regards highly for the loyalty of his subject. Jin Yu is writing on the paper about Ni Qing kidnaper is An Hui tribe.

Zhao Yu did not give out any expression when he gets the paper from his hand and read the content before burning it on the firepit.

"However, we do have important things to get over now. we have to finish this burial and I will work on the case in the meantime. You have to be strong, your highness," Zhao Yu is bowing to the emperor in time with eunuch Wang to announce the convoy of Yin royal family arrives in the palace.

Jin Yu is walking outside to welcome the convoy with Zhao Yu is following from behind. He needs to dedicate and look at the emperor to make him busy with some stuff.

Zhao Yu is hoping his best friend can find the missing empress body as soon as possible. This is going to be huge chaos when they finally find out about the death of the empress.

The emperor is doing his duty with consort Liang on his side. He is making excuse for his empress sickness to be unable to welcome the convoy.

The Yin Kingdom Queen wants to meet with her decease's daughter straight away. They got escorted to the hall of Ning Xia where the coffin with her body lays in hall.

The eunuch and palace maid needs to maintain the body condition and the odour on the surrounding. They are putting extra fragrance and incense sticks in every corner of the room to make the room to be more bearable to breathe.

The queen did not care for the smell of her daughter body and weeping on the side of her coffin.

"We are already delaying her burial to wait for you to arrive, My King," Jin Yu is telling politely to his father-in-law.

"Thank you for doing something for my daughter. We can proceed with the burial tomorrow morning if you do not mind," The King of Yin is asking Jin Yu regarding the burial ceremonies.

"We will prepare it accordingly. My eunuch already gets the favourite dessert and caramel candy from a special place in the capital city for you as the crown prince ordered. My empress is really asking apologised for being absent to welcome you and the whole burial ceremonies. She already prepares a grand feast during your stay to cater for your taste," Jin Yu is explaining diplomatically.

"Thank you so much. We will fine as long as we can send our daughter to her last resting place," The Yin King looks really tired after all the long journey and the fate of her daughter in the foreign country. He wants to bring back her daughter and get buried in Yin Kingdom land instead of in the foreign land.

"Yu, I want to ask a favour from you. If we can discuss this on the side." the Yin King is looking for help from this young emperor in front of him.

"What can I do? I will try my best to accommodate your wish," Jin Yu is telling the wary King in front of him. The King of Yin looks so old after the loss of his daughter. Jin Yu is also having a worry to think about his wife and unborn baby condition.

"Can I bring my deceased daughter back to be burry in our Yin Kingdom? She is born in the Yin Kingdom, and I would love the idea to return her back to her land," The Yin King is asking his permission. It is worth to be try, and it can ignite anger between two countries.

"The rule in the Dayu Kingdom is not permitting a consort of the emperor to be buried into their maiden house. However, I am thinking about our good relationship and diplomatic relationship I will make an exception for Consort Yin," Jin Yu is looking solemn into this old person. As soon as this problem gets solved quickly then he can concentrate to find his missing wife.

"I will make this as a debt of our Yin Kingdom to you. You are really wise emperor as the rumour said in the whole continent. I will be preparing my people to get ready, and we can set up tomorrow to bring her back home," The Yin King is bowing in front of this young emperor for his decision to let Consort Yin get buried back to her home country.

"Stay here for tonight and get a meal in my palace before setting off tomorrow morning. I will make sure to get you the original procession to take the Consort Yin into the last resting place.. She still have her name plaque to be stored in the monastery for the royal family for all her effort as my Consort," Jin Yu is making his decision in front of the Yin King.
