The scalar field theory at finite temperature of real time suggested by Nieme and Semenoff is extended to the ease of gauge field. It is useful in finite temperature QCD in Minkowski space. With the propagator of finite temperature QCD introduced in this paper, the two-loop correction of free energy of high temperature QCD is calculated and the result is consistent with that obtained by Kapusta with the method of Euclidean field theory.
