Chapter 120 - The Wrong Move

Jin Yu is getting aback by his wife initiation to give him a kiss. This is the first time throughout their marriage life that she is kissing him first. She is exploring and occupying his mouth with her tongue. She is holding his neck and play around with his hair. She is actually arousing the deep temptation on his body. Suddenly, she is taking her kiss back because of the sound of the knocking. It is Eunuch Wang who interrupts their deep sexual kisses.

"Come in!" Jin Yu answers with his stern face. his expression seems to want to kill his loyal assistant. Ni Qing smiles and sits next to him while her hand rubbed his inner thigh. It makes him get more frustrated.

"Sir, Zhang is coming with the palace maid. Where do you want to put her? Zhang has to sneak into this house when he is getting followed by someone." Eunuch Wang is reporting to him. Ni Qing stops all her aroused to his husband and looks at the eunuch seriously.

"There is a little room in the back use by Lin Yue and Ni Sheng for interrogating. You can use that room. Butler Ming…." Ni Qing is shouting to call her loyal butler who is entering the chamber as soon as his name summons.

"Yes, madame…." Butler Ming is bowing to his master.

"Can you show Zhang to the Lin Yue interrogation room? I will be there soon," Ni Qing is instructing him.

"Do you want me to do as General Lin do when you are inside the room?" Butler Ming is asking her. he is not liking with the new husband; his master brings home. However, he cannot refute her decision.

Butler Ming actually confused because he hears his young miss entered the palace to become the consort of the emperor. And now, she is in her mansion with her new man. Which one he has to believe.

"Do as you wish… I need you to turn on all the heaters inside that room. I believe they build that room really cold, and I cannot survive the cold in that room. Butler Ming, how about the old lady and the small boy?" Ni Qing is complaining while shaking her body to think about the cold. all her goosebumps start to stand up due to the cold air.

"They are settling well. Xie Lan is taking care of the small boy and the old lady. I believe they are already sleeping in the guest room," Butler Ming is reporting to his madame.

"Good… go do the thing and I will be there soon," Ni Qing is instructing him before all of them walking out of the room and closing the door when she drops her body into Jin Yu lap. She knows her husband green with envy toward Lin Yue.

"Do you want to continue or later?" Ni Qing is wrapping his neck with his arm.

"Do I have the choice? Are you sure that the baby going to be fine?" Jin Yu is looking at her with his sharp face.

"I am sure, and I want you. If the baby does not like you, his bad luck. You have to accept each other sooner or later," Ni Qing is nibbling his ear and make his eyes full of the desire to take her into their bed. She can feel the hard nudge on her laps. Apparently, his body is betraying him.

"We need to finish this matter a bit later. We need to go and meet the maid before something happen to her," Jin Yu is making her stand up and hold her waist to lead the way.

They are walking to the back area and passing the servant house area. There is a building with a stone. It is almost identical to the military jail. They are entering the building when the cold air hit their body. Jin Yu takes off his cape and wrapped it to Ni Qing body. They are walking into the main area where it got the guards on the area.

Zhang is in the middle room with the lady. She looks really haggard and really weak. She is sitting on the table nearby and kneel down on the floor as soon as Jin Yu entered the room with eunuch Wang and Butler Ming.

"Your highness, I am sorry… I am sorry…." The lady maid is kneeling on the floor and talk in a really weak manner.

"Why do you need to ask for my merci?" Jin Yu is asking and giving the sign to Eunuch Wang to get a chair for his wife.

"I have helped the empress dowager to put the poison to the empress water. I really did not know the content was poison. They are taking my brother and family as their hostage. I do not have any choice rather than becoming submissive to them," The palace maid is telling him on her knee and face to the floor.

"What makes you change now?" Jin Yu is reaffirming her decision to confess with his cold and stern voice.

"They are actually killing my family with cold-blooded, and they are actually making our whole village become famished with no source of food. they are so mean, your highness," The lady maid answers the emperor question.

"Who are they?"

"The Chu family…. I am not going to deny it or tell you the false information as they kill my whole family. I will drag them to the hell with me," The lady maid confesses to them inside the room. It makes Ni Qing blood boil to hear the confession of the palace maid. She cannot accept her sister died due to the greediness of the Chu family. She is standing up and wants to walk away and seek justice. However, Jin Yu stops her hand.

"Why? Why do you stop me?" Ni Qing is screaming to her husband to be on her way.

"let's talk in the room…" Jin Yu is holding her tightly. He needs to stop her to make a fool of herself. He knows his wife burns with anger and want to avenge her sister death.

"Let me go…" Ni Qing is moving her hand off his hand. She is trying to get away from her husband and go back to the palace and demand some justice for her sister. She will give her the same poison as her sister. Jin Yu does not have any other choice rather than take her over his shoulder and carried her to their room.

"No One can go in or out from this door. Seal this door until I call you to open this door," Jin Yu said sternly to Eunuch Wang and Butler Ming. He is walking inside the room with Ni Qing is in his shoulder. They are closing the door and seal it as his instruction. Butler Ming is realising the person comes with his madame actually the black-bellied emperor of Dayu Kingdom.

Jin Yu is placing his wife gently on the bed and stand back to see her red anger face.

"Why are you stopping me?" Ni Qing is trying to get past him who barricade the bedside.

"You have to use your brain and not your emotion. Remember, you are pregnant at the moment," Jin Yu is trying to reason with her.

"You always only thinking about the baby inside my stomach. How about the fact that I have to replace my sister position inside of the palace? How about the fact my freedom is missing because of my sister death and my mother disown me?" Ni Qing is getting hysterical with the fact of her anger.

"Are you sure that the baby and becoming my wife actually a burden for you? You do not have an inch of feeling for me?" Jin Yu is holding his hand tightly into a fist. He tries to hold his disappointment toward her.

Ni Qing decides to cover herself with a blanket and gives him her back. Jin Yu is letting out a huge breath to let out his frustration. Jin Yu decides to leave her alone at this stage to get her head together.

Jin Yu is going out of the room with his broken heart. He is going back to the palace directly and drowns his sorrow with alcohol. He drank until he cannot get up in the morning and need the attention of Physician He.

Everyone in the palace in the emperor's inner circle got shocked to find the emperor condition like this. It is the first time for him to get drunk like this. The emperor palace got busy with the emperor conditions this time.

In the four-season mansion, Ni Qing is still sobbing inside the room. She is having a hard time last night and come to the final realisation about something important. She is actually hurting his own husband. She was venting her anger at the empress dowager into her husband and thinking that her husband is together with the empress dowager. However, she does not think that her husband position is the emperor. she is really in the starting of two ways which one she needs to choose. She really cannot hurt her husband anymore and have to think about the consequences of her decision.
