Try two gut loaded crickets, twice a week.

If he gobbles them up, bump it up to three times a week, if he seems uninterested drop it down to 1 cricket twice a week.

Hello and welcome. I had an emperor for years, and now I have a pair of banded flat rock scorpions. I fed my emperor about 6 crickets a week, but he was an adult. I'd start with 3 per week and if he gets them down quickly, bump it up a bit to 4 or 5. The crickets can't hurt the scorpion and it won't eat them if it's full. They can get overweight, but it takes a long time of really overfeeding for that to happen.
