Ni Qing isughing to see her husband childish behaviour to find out the truth about their past meeting. she actually exaggerates a little bit with the promise to marry the crown prince. The king actually already proposes to her on the spot, but Ni Qing already refuses the proposal. She informs them about her engagement with general Lin Yue. However, the king promises in future if their engagement and wedding fall out then Ni Qing has to ept the proposal from the crown prince.


    It means there is a spy inside the Dayu Kingdom to inform everything about the ordeal of Ni Qing and Lin Yue. But their spy misses out on the fact about her marriage to the emperor of the Dayu Kingdom. They must be notpetent enough to miss the most important information from the King.


    "Empress, there is a letter from Mr Zhang in the tea house. The crown prince is asking the tea house to cook up some caramel candy and dessert for the royal family. They will pay so much money for this urrence," Xiao Nie is telling her about the whole letter. However, as soon as Ni Qing read the letter his eyes sh to the important news..


    <em><strong>''Qing, the royal uncle is arriving in the capital at the same time as Liang Li Xuan, and they have been cooked some ns together. Be careful! We will update you as soon as we know more. Zhao.''</strong></em>


    Ni Qing is burning the letter straight away after reading the content. The royal uncle emerges from the calmest of his asylum and her husband seems to pay no attention toward this little uncle. the former emperor put him into an asylum because of his power emerging to the surface. He did not want this little brother of him to get greedy of power and put him to hideaway to indulge with art and woman.


    The former emperor was always wary of this only brother of him and make him surrender without being able to fight. Jin Yu did not really have anything to worry about with this royal uncle when he did not show any interest in politics. He did not restrict him to wander around and gives his royal allowance generously every month.


    Ni Qing is getting ready and needs to talk with Ni Sheng and Lin Yue about this problem.


    "Nie, get my brother and Yue to the tea house. I am going to cook some dessert for the Yin royal family," Ni Qing is opening the secret door when it can''t be open again.


    "Your highness, the emperor sealed this door until you are having the baby. I forget to tell you," Xiao Nie is telling her furious boss.


    "I will make sure to square this with you to betray your own master and side with the emperor," Ni Qing is pouted and stomping out from the room. This time, she has to go out from the pce gate and let the emperor knows about her travel to the tea house.


    Ni Qing is walking toward the pce gate to show her seal to the imperial guard. They can''t say anything when Ni Qing is showing her phoenix seal to the imperial guard on the pce gate. They are kneeling down to give her the tribute to the empress.


    Ni Qing does not bother with the formality, and she put it inside her seal before walks outside the pce.


    She is walking slowly toward the tea house and does not bother to use a carriage. It has been a long time for her not to walk outside the pce wall. She takes a leisure walk when she knows well enough the emperor is busy with the preparation of his consort burial when the neighbour King arrives to witness it.


    She is doing some shopping with Xiao Nie and enjoying her morning stroll. In the end, she is arriving at the tea house when she goes to the special kitchen straight away. After some careful consideration, Lin Yue is making a special kitchen for her in the tea house.


    She is making a special rose and lily cake for the next two-day stock and adding the pumpkin cake. She is making egg tarts for her brother and Lin Yue. Meanwhile, Lin Yue ising to the kitchen in time for her to make the caramel candy.


    Lin Yue is still wearing his Imperial robe with Ni Sheng walk through the kitchen.


    "Come. Help me to stir this candy," Ni Qing is making his instruction to them.


    "I run over from the morning briefing and sneak out from the emperor wrath just to be the empress candy stirrer," Ni Sheng is taking off his imperial robe and getting the wooden stick to stir the caramel.


    "What do you want me to do?" Lin Yue is taking off his imperial robe and fold his sleeves. He is rubbing her head and wipe Ni Qing''s sweat.


    "Can you help to pour the candy into the mould and even it out?" Ni Qing is sitting in the corner of her kitchen. Her feet are killing her, and Xiao Nie is giving her some tea.


    "Sister, is this for the royal family of Yin Kingdom?" Ni Sheng is stirring the dough of the sugar and salt to make it caramel in a big pot.


    "Does the king still pursue you for their son?" Lin Yue is asking her while doing his job.


    "I really do not know and I really not looking forward to meeting them," Ni Qing is enjoying her tea.


    After a while, they manage to make few batches of candy for the whole week stock and wrap for the petty emperor in the pce, and the order for the Yin kingdom royal pce. At least, Ni Qing thinks about their sorrow for losing their daughter.


    Actually, Ni Qing did not think or feel remorse for the witch''s consort Yin. She has enough of her trick in the pce.
