Loving the Naughty Empress

Chapter 205 – The Plan Part 1

"Are you talking the secrets soldiers who ruthlessly do everything it takes to finish the job? They are on par with the emperor eagle troops," Zhao Yu is asking to the empress about the troops.

"yes. They are helping the unfortunate to seek justice and find the truth. They are the best in the society," Ni Qing is telling Zhao Yu regarding her special trained soldier. She is really proud with the cold hand trainer of Lin Yue.

They are really exceeding the expectation of Ni Qing and Lin Yue. Wang Bo is managing the troop under Bao Ni.

"He is just arriving in Capital, your highness. Do you want him to come and greet you?" Wang Bo is asking her master regarding this troop.

This soldier is a present and supposedly a dowry from Lin Yue which use the knowledge and strategy from Ni Qing.

They are the soldier who tasked to sacrifice themselves in order to carry out all the order from I Qing as their master.

Lin Yue is creating this team to protect Ni Qing which is really precious for Lin Yue and the country as their war strategies.

"Wait a second. So, the black peonies is the assets under your management?" Zhao Yu is asking to the empress.

"Well, someone is giving me the troop as their dowry and gift. I just shape it a little bit and manage it in the right direction. This is just a small stuff under my sleeve," Ni Qing is admitting the troops.

"Why does someone give you dowry? It means that he is trying to convert my wife," Jin Yu is pouting his lips to think about the whole story.

"Do you want to start again? You even marry me, and I do not get any dowry," Ni Qing is looking sharply to her husband. it makes Lin Yue is happy to think about his gift to Ni Qing.

"You are coming as concubine, and you are marrying to the palace. I do not need to give you dowry as emperor," Jin Yu is making a comment for her word regarding dowry.

"Good. I know about it! you are such a petty emperor, so you can't make comment or complain if someone is giving me a gift!" Ni Qing is complaining to her husband about everything.

"What do you want from Bao Ni?" Lin Yue is asking her.

"Make them to change become group of thug security under brother Ah Seh. They dare to compete with me and I will be glad to give them competition," Ni Qing is getting fire up.

"What happen with the court now? should you take care of it also?" Jin Yu is asking her opinion.

"Is that your job to govern the country? Why should I think about it also? I am only worried about my business when I do not have any dowry. So, I need to rely into myself to secure my life with my baby," Ni Qing is rubbing her stomach.

"Everyone said I got bewitched by the empress and forget about the court order. So I need to ask the empress about the court order and live leisurely in my empress court," Jin Yu is looking at her with his loving gaze.

"that is your problem and not my problem. If I have to tell you about your court order then I will sit on your throne and govern the whole country. I will be tired," Ni Qing is refusing his idea to hand the country to Ni Qing.

"You are using all my resources and this people is getting paid by the tax under my governor. As much as you use my resources and people, how about you also tell them to solve my court problem?" Jin Yu is telling her about the idea.

"Tell him!" Ni Qing is making a small remark while putting some food in her mouth.

"Your highness the emperor, we all are taking annual leave when we are working under the empress. She is providing my troop of salaries and food. we have been not using any allowance from the government on our barrack. Anyway, you have been cutting the military allowance half this year due on the limited budget. We can't survive with the amount of money given by the government,'' Lin Yue is explaining to the government.

"WE are in the prime minister department also did not get any salary from the finance office. The prime minister offices is under the wages of this court in the palace. so we are under the disposal of the empress," Zhao Yu is reporting to the emperor in front of them.

"Eunuch Li and I are under the wages of this court, your highness. We are not under the Palace household allowance," Eunuch Wang is reporting to the emperor.

"Who else is under my wealthy wife salary?" Jin Yu is amused to the amount of money his wife had under his nose.

"I am under the allowance from my husband, Mo Fan. The household department is cutting everyone allowance due to war in the border. We are understanding so we are not asking any allowance," Consort Liang is explaining to the emperor.

Jin Yu is showing his unhappy facial expression to hear the report from consort Liang. It means the corruption under his nose is severely until the finance minister cut all the allowance.

"You just find out about the corruption? No wonder the prime minister is scolding you for your incompetent management in the court," Ni Qing is adding salt to the wound.

"I know it so I will need to learn a lot from my wife. You are really good," Jin Yu is trying to coax his wife. he has to get her into his play. He can't trust anyone inside the court because the enemy is lurking around in the corner.

He has a plan already and thankfully some of the government funds is kept in the underground safe with the emperor seal. No one knows about this hidden treasure. the only one who knows about this secret fund is only the emperor and prime minister for the use of the whole money.

It means his minister has put the money inside the illegal banking. They are not going to dare to do something like this if it does not get some powerful backing.

Ni Qing is well aware that her husband has a plan inside his head. She will need to play it together to make everyone believe the rumour. it is impossible to trick the emperor.

They are having to get together until late at night with a loud and cheerful laugh when many of the spy lurk outside the empress court to listen about the information.

Jin Yu is not attending the court today and let the prime minister to attend the court on behalf of him. the reason presented to all the ministry because of the empress who did not happy with the emperor.

He is going to appease the anger of the empress by staying on her side for couple of day.

In reality, Jin Yu is reading the financial report made the finance minister department and following the trace of the whole money.

Apparently, the money has been disappearing every month start from last year when the minister of finance gives out loan to the minister and other rich people.

However, none of them is paying back to the government. Jin Yu is asking Zhao Yu and eunuch Wang to sneak out and get him some of the record in the document storage facility.

He has been diligent to trace the bread crumb for all the money and Jin Yu is making list of the government people who is corrupted in the palace.

However, the bigger amount of money start to disappear when the border war start. It is not written on the record or ledger but Jin Yu find the discrepancies getting bigger by the day.

He can find out that the finance minister is in the side of Minister Xuan. He is adding all the dot and find out the whole scheme which connect Mr Luo and Minister Xuan.

Madame Song is the main key for the whole operation between Minister Xuan and Mr Luo. Jin Yu is sure after got the report from Zhang after deep investigation on the capital.

"Are you finding the clue?" Ni Qing is coming to his study and sit down into his laps.. Jin Yu is moving his office in the study room within the area of Ni Qing palace.
