Loving the Naughty Empress

At the end of the delta, Ni Qing bodies get washed off by the water with Lin Yue. His body is stranded not far from her when the pack of the prince is hunting activity in the forest.

They are stopping after one of the soldiers relay the message to Prince Dilbarat for the body found. They are going down from their horse to find the familiar face of general Lin Yue.

They must be meeting with ill fate until get washed off to the shore near Jurgen County. The prince is telling the soldier and eunuch to help them and get them to their royal tent.

They are getting transported on the cart to the royal tent when the royal physician checks their health and is satisfied with their condition.

Lin Yue is waking up and is puzzled to find Ni Qing. He is sitting up and trying to stand up because of worry about her condition. The eunuch is going inside the tent and bowing to the general.

"Where is Ni Qing?" Lin Yue is asking him briefly.

"Please be patient. Your wife is resting in the next tent after getting treatment from the physician. Congratulation on the madame pregnancy! I will prepare some water for you to clean up and change your clothes, General," The eunuch is bowing and walk backward from his tent.

Lin Yue does not want to wait and goes to the next tent where there are guards on the tent. They are almost not allowing Lin Yue to enter the tent when the familiar sound comes from inside the tent.

"Let him inside!" prince Dorji is instructing the guards in front of the tent. Lin Yue is going inside the tent to find the crown prince of Jurgen County.

"Greeting, Crown Prince Dorji," General Lin Yue is clasping his hand together and bowing to the crown prince who sits on the bed next to Ni Qing.

"Finally, she is back again to my side," Prince Dorji is smiling and holding the hand of unconscious Qing on the bed.

"Your highness, she is pregnant at the moment. I am worried about the baby condition and the mother," Lin Yue is asking about her condition to Prince Dorji who has heart fallen into Ni Qing\'s charm during their alliance war practice.

"She is fine, and the baby is healthy. I will take care of the baby as long as you issue the divorce paper so I can marry her. I will take care of your baby and he can become the crown prince of Jurgen county when I descent the throne as the King," Dorji is telling him with confidence. He has really loved this girl who was treating her nicely despite all the pressure from his father and the minister as the crown prince.

"I will need to seek her approval. If I am letting her go without discussing it with her. Have you thought about the aftermath of our one side decision? Are you really love her, your highness?" Lin Yue is asking his opinion. Dorji is playing with his thumb ring regarding this man opinion. After all, he is the husband of this beautiful and smart lady. He must be well known for her characteristic.

"I will leave you to nurture her and talk some sense to her. This time there is no way out and I will not lose her again," Dorji is standing up and walks out of the tent. Lin Yue falls down on the ground to realise; they are stranded in Jurgen County. The Crown prince is obsessed with Ni Qing who treated him nicely during his early time as crown prince.

She helped him to become the crown prince and nurture him as his aide while they were conducting the friendship exercise between the two kingdoms. So Dorji is having a big misunderstanding for his heart about his feeling toward Ni Qing. He has never been around many women who is as strong and nurturing as Ni Qing. This time, Dorji wanted to pay his debt and make her the first lady in Jurgen county.

Lin Yue is holding the pale pregnant woman on the bed. He is getting the cloth nearby and soaking it to warm water. Lin Yue is patiently wiped and cleaned up her hand and face.

"Qing, please wake up. Do not scare me like this!" Lin Yue is holding tightly her hand with his two hands when he can feel a little nudge into his hand.

"Qing…. Are you wake up? can you hear me?" Lin Yue is looking at her attentively.           

"Yue… you are too loud," Ni Qing is answering him weakly from the bed.

"You are really trying to kill me with a heart attack," Lin Yue is having a relieves in his heart. He sincerely worries about her condition if she does not wake up.

"Are we in heaven? Is my baby fine?" Ni Qing is trying to lift up his hand and check on her stomach but she is still too weak.

"I wish we are in heaven. We are in hell as the fact. You are still pregnant, and I need you to play-act with me if you do not want to stay here and become the crown princess," Lin Yue is telling him with a whisper on her ears. He is looking into the outside tent where all the guards seem looking at them.

"Where are we?" Ni Qing is trying to sit up when Lin Yue is helping and supporting her.

"Do you remember Jurgen county? We are in the royal hunting tent and Crown prince Dorji want to marry you. I manage to claim you as my wife and pregnant with my descendant," Lin Yue is informing her.

"Do not tell me the timid cute Dorji. He really wants to marry me to keep his promise and debt. This is absurd and stupid as usual.. He really needs a good beating in his head!" Ni Qing is chuckled weakly in Lin Yue shoulder to remember the naïve crown prince.
