Chapter 62
Thinking Too Much
In the imperial study, Jun Qian Che is busy reading a memorial. A very beautiful woman is standing next to him; she is none other than Yang Shi Han.
“Biaoge, I heard you haven’t gone to the empress’ palace for a couple of days now. Did you two fight?” Yang Shi Han curiously asks while grinding him ink.
Jun Qian Che icily speaks without even raising his head, “That is between zhen and the empress. No need for you to interfere.”
“Chenqie naturally does not dare to interfere in things between Your Majesty and Her Ladyship. But, aren’t you curious about what the empress has been up to these past few days, Your Majesty?” Yang Shi Han secretly gauge his reaction.
Jun Qian Che carelessly asks, “What is the empress up to?”
“Biaoge, you may not know this, but the empress has been inquiring about the viewing tower incident. What is she trying to say? She was clearly caught red-handed and is now pretending to be ignorant about it. It is almost like she wants to remind everyone of what she had done! She knows that you did not manage to catch her lover. With Duke Zhen backing her, she thinks that she can prance around the palace looking all haughty. She is being too shameless!”
“What are you trying to say?” Jun Qian Che impatiently asks.
“Your Majesty, what chenqie is trying to say is the empress gave you a green hat and is actually busy announcing that to the entire palace. Why is she still here? Why haven’t you deposed her yet? Even if Duke Zhen objects to it, what the empress did was more than enough to deserve that.”
“Zhen has zhen’s own discretion in this matter, there is no need for you to point everything out,” Jun Qian Che sounds very unhappy.
“Biaoge, don’t tell me that you have fallen in love with Mo Qi Qi? Don’t forget who her father is! Mo Clan is very close to the 7th w.a.n.g and the grand empress dowager. They will turn against you, sooner or later. Yesterday, the 7th w.a.n.g entered the palace. He said he wanted to greet the grand empress dowager, but the grand empress dowager ended up inviting the empress as well. They chatted for a long time, who knows what they did in Yong Shou Palace.”
“That is enough! If there is nothing else, you can leave,” Jun Qian Che impatiently shoos her away.
“Biaoge—“
“Go!” He angrily says.
Yang Shi Han purse her lips and angrily leaves.
Mo Qi Qi is holding a bowl of soup as she stands in front of the imperial study. She decided to start her investigation from Jun Qian Che.
When Yang Shi Han angrily walks out of the imperial study, she b.u.mps into Mo Qi Qi. She approaches her, looking at the bowl she is holding before haughtily asking, “What are you carrying?”
Mo Qi Qi purposely makes herself look dignified and elegant, “Bengongpersonally made His Majesty soup.”
Yang Shi Han scoffs, “You personally made it? Who are you trying to fool? Perhaps you put poison inside!”
“Yang Guifei, please take a good look on who you are talking to. Although bengong said that we do not have to be too courteous with each other since we are sisters, that does not means that you are allowed to be downright disrespectful. Do this again and bengong will handle this according to the palace rules,” Mo Qi Qi use her position to scare Yang Shi Han off.
“You—-“ Although Yang Shi Han is angry, she needs to take Mo Qi Qi’s ident.i.ty into consideration. No matt
er what she says, Mo Qi Qi is still the empress.
Mo Qi Qi is really happy seeing Yang Shi Han looking deflated. She lifts her chin and arrogantly walks into the study.
Yang Shi Han angrily stomps her feet before leaving in a huff.
Mo Qi Qi elegantly walks over to Jun Qian Che and place the bowl on the table, “Greeting Your Majesty.”
Jun Qian Che looks at the bowl, “What is this?” He is very surprised that she is taking the initiative to look for him. Although she does this a lot in the past, she has stopped doing this after the fall from the viewing tower.
