Gin and Li Cheng is the one managing the shop right now, in the past two days their Mayo became a hit and it seems that more and more buyers are coming there way each day., and today was no exception.,

while the two gents are busy Li Cheng forced Kim Li to sleep inside their shop., since he noticed that she's pushing herself too hard and haven't slept in three days straight.

"Until now I still can't believe that we're making so much money!"- Ven

"And this is so delicious!!! Miya can't stop eating!"-Miya

"So is Ayu, *burp* excuse me"-Ayu

Fenyu and Zenyu stayed with Kim Li and was assigned to secure that She get at least 8 hours of sleep.,

Since they started doing business she haven't slept more than an hour and a half, that worried Li Cheng since his empress doesn't know her own limitations.,

Gin also picked up the Kids to help at their shop since Kim Li thought that the kids honest opinion, is the best marketing advertisement around and since the day they've arrived their sale tripled.,

Cause letting the kids eat in delight while the bystanders watch, they're mouth become watery and ended up buying their products.

But this lively trading place soon silenced as private guards marched towards he crowd announcing that the empress have come.

And with that everyone kowtow , as the paladin passed their way.,

"Make way for the empress!"-Xin guard said as the assist the said empress towards the Xin's

"We will be confiscating your business permit in the name of sister empress."- Xin Ye

While Jen Sho felt a really important person as they kept calling her the empress.,

While The four Kids are trembling in fear as soon as they saw the guards entourage., when as Ven and Gin drop down to kowtow.,

But Li Cheng doesn't care at their little show and continued his lunch., he didn't even took a glance at the one who just got out of the paladin, cause of his hunger and the Mayo is really addictive to the taste, that he can't help himself but enjoy his simple meal.,

But as soon as he heard Miyu and Ayu's cries he left his food and check out what's happening outside.,

What he saw shocked him as his Concubine Jen is here and is impersonating the empress.,

"Why aren't you kowtowing to her highness!" Xin Ye yelled at him as Jen Sho jus gave him a glance of indifference since his whole appearance changed a little since the work ,was overload since a couple of days ago.

"I'll let you off the hook, if you'd come with me and serve me handsome"-Jen Sho

As his built caught her eye and wanted to have a taste of this fine catch.,

While Li Cheng felt disgusted and disappointed at what his looking at right now., his brows frown and have made his decision clear.

Hurt was seen in his eyes, that his longed lover turned out this way., or is this really her true nature, he doesn't know anymore.,

"Uncle Xin, is this the slave that your talking about,?"-Jen Sho

Speaking as elegantly as she can, while there are contempt in her eye's, that they can't even with some small fry slaves.

While Li Cheng instinctively try to hide the kids behind him but ended up restricted by the guards.

"HOW DARE YOU, LAY YOUR HANDS ON ME.,"- Li Cheng threatened

But the guards didn't budge as they are just following orders.

As soon as the little kids saw how tight their holding Li Cheng, they started crying and begging to release their Big brother Li loudly.,

The cries of four kids is starting to get into Jen Sho's nerves and she unconsciously blurted out to silenced them.,

The guards seems to hesitated but with the sharp glare of the Old Man Xin, they seem to have no other choice, as Li Cheng started to trash around and threatened them, that if they lay a single hair of the kids they'll face the wrath of the emperor.,

Which the Xin's and Jen Sho just laughed it off, as if the commoner lad is joking.

The guards have a shaky hand as the place the sharp object at the kids throat that made the crying louder from Gin and Ven who's trashing like Li Cheng since they also are held captive.,

"DON'T YOU DARE!"- Li Cheng

"PLEASE! TAKE ME INSTEAD!"-Ven

"PLEASE SPARE THEM, I BEG OF YOU!"- Gin

"Silence them already!"-Xin Ye

And as the guards prepare for the act of murder a jar hit the head of each guards who have the knives at the kids throat.,

"I. Wonder. Who. Disturbed. My. Peaceful. Slumber?"-Kim Li said full of malice that sent chills to everyone's spines

She just got up, cause of the irritating pleas and cries that she heard., and when she saw that the kids have knives dangerously pointed at their necks, she didn't hesitate to grab a jar of Mayo and throw it at the captivates head.,

She also did a quick assessment of the situation making her senses to flare up., as she saw Gin and Ven were both on the ground while some guards feet were on top of them and Li Cheng is held captive by four guards surrounding him with spears.

And the thing that made her blood boil was when she saw the eyes of the kids., as they are all terrified.,

"Miyu, Ayu, Zenyu, and Fenyu heed big sister's words and go inside for now."-Kim Li said full of seriousness

As the kids nod unconsciously and head inside their shop., and placed themselves at the inner most corner hugging each other.,

While Jen Sho is slightly trembling right now as she recognize the lady just came out of the shop.,

While old man Xin have this smug look as the said Bitch finally show herself.,

"You needed something from me?"-Kim Li asked glaring at the Xin's and also felt more annoyed that the emperor's harem is still giving her troubles even in this barren lands.

She thought as she eyed Jen Sho who is currently wearing a gold and red colored silk with some imitation Phoenix embroidery.,

She could tell since the Phoenix design that the Royals wear have this sophisticated neat look., and the treads used shimmers along with the sun.,

"Don't you have any manners, The empress is here and you don't even kowtow to her! That act is punishable by death!"-Xin Ye

"Indeed the empress is here, but why would I kowtow?"-Kim Li smirk while Jen Sho paled

But since she decided to play with them for a while then she'll gave them a good show. She thought as she think of some sinister ways to wipe them all out with just one response.
