"You dare to hit the emperor. do you know that it\'s a federal crime and punishable by death?" Jin Yu is folding his hand in front of his chest.

"I am sorry your highness. Please give mercy to this humble servant," Ni Qing is curtsying in front of the emperor.

"I will accept your punishment on the bed tonight. I need to torture you on the bed tonight," Jin Yu is turning around to walk inside the bed.

"Can you just torture me inside the jail? I am willing to go inside the jail," Ni Qing is following him inside the house. She is going into the kitchen again to cook for everyone the dinner. This time, she is making garlic fried chicken with cashew, Mongolian beef, two dishes of stir fry green vegetable, fish soup with winter melon and egg fried rice.

Ni Sheng, Lin Yue, and Eunuch Li are waiting in the kitchen while she is cooking all the dishes. Xiao Nie is assisting her to prepare for the plate. She is making a big batch of the food for everyone in the house. In the end, she is making a sago dessert soup with basil seed.

Jin Yu is getting jealous to see his consort work so hard for everyone in this place. She is a royal consort of the emperor of the Dayu Kingdom. Jin Yu wants to punish each one of them regarding of their behaviour toward his consort. She has to serve and cook for everyone when she supposedly gets all the service from them.

Finally, Ni Qing finishes her cooking in the kitchen. Xiao Nie and Eunuch Li are putting the table on the courtyard for their feast tonight. Apparently, Ni Qing also making a beggar chicken earlier in the morning. She is taking it out from the back of the oven burner. She is putting the chicken on the table before she cracked the dough wrapping the golden chicken. Everyone is stopping their activity to enjoy the temptation of her golden chicken.

Ni Sheng and Lin Yue is setting the table for everyone where the servant of the mansion busy to clean up the mess in the kitchen and in front of the mansion. Zhao Yun is arriving from the office to gather some information.

"Wang, get some nice wine out for dinner…." Jin Yu is instructing to his loyal assistant.

"Yes, your highness…" Eunuch Wang is bowing to the emperor.

"No need… Ni Qing is already asking for the local shop to send their wine as their business is struggling with the economic," Ni Sheng is informing the emperor.

"the wine is here…." The wine peddler is coming through the same time of Ni Qing comes out from the kitchen.

"My Lord, please pay up the wine seller…." Ni Qing is yelling to her husband. Jin Yu is checking his robe to realise he never carry any money.

"I know it…. Ah Yue or Sheng, please pay up the seller…." Ni Qing is looking down to Jin Yu when realise about her husband never carry money.

Lin Yue is giving the wine peddler the money when Ni Qing is putting the dishes on the table and opens up one of the jars to taste the wine. Lin Yue and Ni Sheng are waiting for her approval. She is whispering something to Xiao Nie who is securing two bottles of wine away and leaving them the three jars of wine.

"What? Did you tell Xiao Nie to store two bottles of wine for your collection?" Lin Yue is taking the wine handle and scoop it to the jar before drinking it.

"How it is?" Ni Sheng is asking curiously. Jin Yu is sitting on the table got curious for the three of them who is making circle and talking themselves about the wine. They seem ignoring the emperor who is sitting on the table.

"No wonder. She is keeping two bottles for herself… the wine taste really nice and smooth," Lin Yue is telling him about the wine taste. Ni Qing is already drinking the wine while standing in between them.

Eunuch Wang is making a sign by coughing to stop them from talking by themselves and ignoring the emperor. Ni Qing is understanding his signal and walk toward the table. Eunuch Li as instructed move the wine to the pot ready for the emperor. he passes it to Eunuch Wang who is checking for the poison and serve it to his cup.

"Now, you check for the poison, but yesterday, no one check into the wine…." Ni Qing is making the remark from eunuch wang job to check the wine.

"You can cure me…. But this time, I have to be extra careful and does not get fool for the second time," Jin Yu is drinking the wine. He can understand his wife tastebud to find this rare gem from the local shop.

"let\'s eat…" Ni Qing is telling everyone. Eunuch Wang is serving the emperor for his dinner meal. 

"Wang… I will serve my husband. Go sit with Li in the table there…. We are having meal together to show our gratitude for your hard work…" Ni Qing is taking the chopstick on his hand and push him to sit down. She is putting some meat into his bowl of rice.

"What are you going to do next? Asking me to clean up the latrine of my servant?" Jin Yu is looking deeply into his consort\'s eyes.

"You said while having meal the law in the palace forbid us to talk…" Ni Qing is telling him.

"You talk back to the emperor!"

"Are you pulling rank now?" Ni Qing is looking at him with her serious expression.

"No…. No…. you can do whatever you want…. Can we eat?" Jin Yu is giving up to his wife rule. He does not want to be in her bad side again. 

Everyone is laughing the henpecked emperor to his wife. They are happy to enjoy the night with a good food and wine. Everyone is having a good time until late night.
