Chapter 36

Bandaging The Tongue

Mo Qi Qi unhappily glares at him before she refutes him, ”Your Majesty, you must not slander chenqie.  Chenqie knows you don't like chenqie; always trying to find excuses to make things hard for chenqie.  But these kind of things cannot be blamed on others!  I have always kept my distance from you; don't say bite your tongue, even the chance to bite your lips—–” she suddenly pauses before fiddling with her hair in embarra.s.sment.  ”Of course, that incident in the dragon pool was just an accident.  Who told you to force yourself on others?  But you must not blame me this time!  Clearly it was you and Yang Meimei who got out of control while being affectionate with each other, why are you putting the blame on me?”

”Blame?”  Jun Qian Che's anger continues to intensify.

Mo Qi Qi continues complaining with a face full of grievance, ”Correct, blame!  Chenqie was peacefully sleeping in my own chamber, but you sneaked into here and disrupt chenqie's sweet dream!  I was dreaming about so many delicious delicacies!”  Mo Qi Qi appears dreamy as she recalls her dream, ”That fragrant roasted duck was right within my palm.  I managed to get a taste of it's meat when I bit into it——-”

Bit?  Mo Qi Qi stares at Jun Qian Che with bulged eyes.

He icily asks her, ”Finally remembered everything?”

Mo Qi Qi finds this hard to believe, ”Your Majesty, you— you must not scare me!  How could I bite your tongue?  Oh!  I knew it!  You must have took advantage of me while I was sleeping!  Huhu, how can a person be so despicable?  How hypocritical!  A ruler behaving like a small town thug!” Thinking about how he secretly kissed her, she wants to vomit.

”Preposterous!” Jun Qian Che angrily snaps.

Mo Qi Qi is shocked by his outburst.  She stares at him in grievance before murmuring, ”Did chenqie said anything wrong?”

”You were the one who took the initiative to kiss zhen.”  Jun Qian Che points out.

Mo Qi Qi laughs in exaggeration, ”I kissed you?  What a joke.  Do you think you could take advantage of me while I was sleeping and I wouldn't know——-  Oh! Oh G.o.d!  Don't tell me I mistook you for the roasted duck!”

Jun Qian Che's face darkens.

”Hehe, Your Majesty, chenqie didn't do it on purpose.  I didn't know the roasted duck was you.  Calm down.  Calm down ah!  Why don't you let chenqie bandage your tongue?  Eh, hehe, I don't think tongue can be bandaged though.”

Mo Qi Qi feels like she is sitting in front of an iceberg.  So cold.  She uses her best ability and warmth to melt this iceberg, ”Your Majesty, why don't we call the imperial physician to give you ointment.”  After that, she replies to herself.  ”I don't think we can apply ointment either.  Seems like we can only let it heal on it's own.  Will it swell tomorrow?  Will you have to go to the morning court with a swollen tongue?  Will the officials make fun of you? Ha ha ha——”

Mo Qi Qi imagines Jun Qian Che with a swollen tongue and is amused by her own imagination.

Jun Qian Che coldly threatens her, ”You better pray zhen's tongue wouldn't end up the way you said it will.  Do you know what punishment will befall someone who purposely injures the emperor?” After he said that, he gets up and leaves.

Mo Qi Qi sits on her bed in frustration.  Huhu, Jun Qian Che that big bully!  Why did he came to her instead of sleeping on the first place?  If she had known this will happen, she would've bite his tongue off so he can no longer speaks.
