The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people
Chapter 1225 Midnight Snack
Fei He took the blueprint handed to him by the puppy and examined it carefully.
After seeing the content clearly marked by His Majesty and the sentence written on the back, Fei He got up from his chair and led his people to the next place.
Just as I reached the door, it was pushed open from the outside.
The system stood in front of Fei He, poked its head out, and saw that it was the same man who had just gotten off the carriage.
"Lord Fei, it's been a long time. I wonder if you still remember me?"
The man blocked the doorway. The system tried to go out, but Fei He grabbed it by the back of the neck and pulled it back.
Fei He pulled the puppy behind her and slowly spoke to the man blocking her way:
"The governor is making this trip so late; he must have a close relationship with the Xie family."
At this point, the system's machine also analyzed and determined the person's identity.
While Fei He and the governor were testing each other, the system had finished reading all of the governor's information.
Looking at the governor's unclear relationship with the Xie family over the years, the system clicked its tongue twice and gave the governor a cold look.
It's impossible for the governor not to feel any fear when he looks at Fei He's perpetually icy face.
Furthermore, His Majesty was currently in Qiyang. Just thinking about all this made the governor's face stiffen.
Governor: "Lord Fei, you flatter me. I heard that you were here and came here specifically to pay my respects."
The governor ordered a pile of things to be brought up, but Fei He only glanced at them before looking away.
Fei He raised his hand, and several guards behind him immediately followed, separating the governor from the servants following him.
The governor looked at the seven or eight guards who had already stood behind him, and although he was wary, he had a smile on his face.
The governor said, “What do you mean by this, sir? The things here are not illegal or disorderly, they are just some food. It must have been hard for you to raid the Xie family’s bank late at night, with so many people with you. After I received the news, I hurriedly asked my cook to prepare the food and send it over.”
The governor looked kind, but even the system didn't respect him.
They had absolutely no interest in the food.
Liang Chongyue sat in his chair, looking at the scene on the panel. He knew perfectly well what the governor's actions meant.
Liang Chongyue opened another panel and began searching for the location of the Xie family patriarch.
Sure enough, the Xie family patriarch was covering up his crimes.
The fact that the governor risked being implicated to help the Xie family this time shows how strong their relationship was.
It's probably already indestructible.
She heard nothing of the slightest disturbance in the capital. Liang Chongyue tapped the armrest of the chair with her index finger intermittently.
Qiyang is truly a small place with a lot of strange and wonderful things to do; there are talented people everywhere.
There was no new development from Fei He, and Liang Chongyue wasn't in a hurry. Fei He had been with her for so many years; it was impossible for her to be completely unprepared.
Liang Chongyue continued to watch the show quietly. Looking at the anxious system on the panel, Liang Chongyue transferred some luck coins to the system's account.
The system immediately calmed down after hearing the sound of the Luck Coins arriving in the account.
Liang Chongyue looked at the system panel, which was not moving, as if it was holding back some good news. In fact, he opened his panel the moment the Luck Coins arrived.
He checked his account.
The system became much more behaving itself after receiving the Luck Coins.
He stood motionless beside Fei He, quietly waiting for Fei He and the wicked governor to play a game of cat and mouse.
The governor had little contact with this Lord Fei, and most of his understanding of him came from news from the capital.
All that is known is that this Lord Fei served under two emperors, and by all accounts, his body should have been disposed of in the countryside long ago.
Unfortunately, this Lord Fei had already sided with His Majesty early on, and after His Majesty ascended the throne, he rose through the ranks and became a favorite of the Emperor for decades.
His little tricks were certainly no match for this favorite of the emperor.
He was only hoping to drag things out as long as possible so that those idiots in the Xie family could clean things up sooner.
Even if it might implicate some people, he can still extricate his family from the situation.
Fei He didn't respond, and the atmosphere became somewhat tense for a moment.
The governor was unsure of what to do until Fei He gave him a look, signaling the guards to take away all the servants the governor had brought with him. Only then did the governor's expression soften a little.
"Your Excellency is well-informed, why don't you sit down and have some food with me?"
Fei He's reaction exceeded the governor's expectations. The governor remained wary, but since the renowned Fei He was willing to give him face, he readily agreed.
The guards and servants inside the room were all dismissed. The governor looked around and then, with a fawning smile on his face, stepped forward, opened the food box, and took out the prepared dishes one by one.
"This dish is a specialty of Qiyang, and it's absolutely delicious with wine. Your Excellency should definitely try it today."
The governor stood and poured wine for Fei He, who then sat back down in her chair. Even the system squatted to the side, waiting for the meal to begin.
The host has already given it a hint: there's food to eat, so why not take it?
The governor stood setting out the dishes, while the system tilted its head to look at the fake smile on Fei He's face, which was not nearly as genuinely happy as when it was with its host.
Governor Bu Cai stopped his hand in front of the puppy. He had also heard of the dog's glorious achievements, having raised it from a puppy to adulthood.
Having followed His Majesty to the battlefield, and having raised many people in the palace to their deaths, this one was finally bitten by Old Master Xie.
Now, staring into the dog's eyes, he felt a chill run down his spine.
I was afraid the dog would suddenly have a seizure and I'd jump up and bite it.
Before the governor arrived, he visited Old Master Xie. One of his legs was beyond saving, and he was so frightened that he fainted on the bed, trembling and calling for help from time to time.
That's really scary.
The governor paused in setting out the dishes, then smiled broadly at Lord Fei and said:
"Is this majestic dog the one His Majesty raised since it was a puppy?"
Fei He nodded, and the system tilted its head back high.
The governor then said, "It's not good for the lord and I to be drinking and eating here, and for the dog to keep watching us. Why don't we let the dog out first?"
The system's eyes widened upon hearing this; it had been waiting for this extra treat all along.
The dishes are all served, you think you can just let it leave? No way.
The leg under the system table nudged Fei He twice. Fei He had been by His Majesty's side for so long, how could he not know what kind of dog he was?
"It's alright. The little dog has eaten all sorts of delicacies and drunk wine around His Majesty."
Seeing that Fei He was cooperating, the system withdrew its leg.
Now it was the governor's turn to be embarrassed. Under Fei He's watchful gaze, he reluctantly set out a food tray for His Majesty's dog as well.
Then they would add a flattering comment: "What you say makes sense, sir."
Looking at Fei He's upturned lips on the panel, Liang Chongyue thought, "People are indeed not afraid of hardship when they do bad things."
After the meal, Fei He was already full and wasn't hungry at all.
When the governor recommended something to eat, he immediately picked it up and gave it to the puppy, which happily ate it.
