380. The Governor: Female Emperor
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
When Su Bei woke up, he saw a dagger shining with cold light before his eyes.
He seized that guy by the wrist and sent the dagger back, the warm blood smudged on a piece of white gauze.
Su Bei withdrew his hand, looking at the dazzling red fingertip.
Someone on the side hurriedly handed a handkerchief to Su Bei, Su Bei wiped off the blood on the fingertip, then swept around.
People around were all wearing official clothes, should be at some sort of party or something.
And the one on the top should be the emperor, she stared at Su Bei, waiting to see his response.
Su Bei sat back and did not mean to speak.
Many breathed a sigh of relief.
The dancer who was killed by Su Bei quickly got taken away and another group of s came up and the banquet continued
It’s as if nothing had happened.
748’s mechanical voice sounded, “Host, the plot.”
Su Bei did not speak, but 748 did not dare to act too rough, because it always felt the present Su Bei was kind of horrible.
The plot of this world was like this, the female lead Feng Jinghuang was an emperor.
But because she was a woman, she was a puppet emperor.
The court was held in the hands of Su Bei.
As Feng Jinghuang grew up gradually, she planned to grab the power back in her hands and get rid of Su Bei the big eunuch who held her as a puppet.
But because she was alone, she barely had a chance.
So, weighing the pros and cons, she chose to ask a tiger for its skin.
That tiger was her imperial uncle Feng Qianjue.
He was the youngest son of her grandfather.
After her father’s accession to the throne, he had been sent away to a remote place.
Unexpectedly, Feng Qianfei had developed his own forces and nibbled those cities and towns around little by little and finally became a threat of the court.
Then it was how Feng Jinghuang made use of Feng Qianjue to kill Su Bei and then grabbed the things in Feng Qianjue’s hands step by step.
Finally, because Feng Qianjue had fallen in love with Feng Jinghuang such a smart and brave woman, he gave up everything and had children with her.
Now the plot had come to the part that Feng Jinghuang had picked up contacts with Feng Qianjue and was testing Su Bei.
This banquet was also held using the excuse of giving a reception in honor of Feng Qianjue for coming back to the capital.
But Feng Qianjian did not come.
That was kind of provocation to Feng Jinghuang and Su Bei.
Su Bei suddenly got up and walked away, since his captivating object was not here, why should he stay?
Feng Jinghuang immediately opened her mouth, “Governor, where are you going?”
Su Bei replied without turning back, “I’m leaving.”
Feng Jinghuan said, “My imperial uncle hasn’t arrived, is it appropriate for you to leave now?”
Su Bei said impatiently, “He won’t come. Dismiss everything.”
Feng Jinghuang did not open her mouth again, she felt that today’s Su Bei was kind of strange, but she couldn’t tell where.
Soon, Su Bei’s words spread into Feng Qianjue’s ears.
Feng Qianjue who was enjoying his tea gave a faint smiled, looking like an old fox, “it seems that that Su Bei is not simple.”
After Su Bei went back home, he only wanted to sleep, like he hadn’t slept well for a long time.
People in the court were all guessing what Feng Qianjue and Su Bei were planning.
Theoretically speaking, Feng Qianjue would make some waves after he came back.
But it seemed that both the emperor and Su Bei had performed too calmly.
Making them kind of have no idea the really purpose of Feng Qianjue this time.
The next morning, Su Bei did not wake up, but no one dared to wake him up.
So news that the governor, who usually arrived on time, did not show up at the court had triggered another wave of suspicion.
381. The Governor: Different from the Rumor

It was already in the afternoon when Su Bei, probably because finally having had a good sleep, he felt in quite a good mood.
As he just got up, the servants who had been waiting outside filed in, gingerly serving him to get changed and wash his face.
And he quite enjoyed it.
Soon, Su Bei got all dressed up.
A pair of peach blossom billowing eyes, the whole person looking kind of evil, also revealing a kind of malicious feeling.
Su Bei sat on the chair while propping up his head, “Anything happened?”
Someone walked out of the darkness, “My lord, His Majesty went to Feng Qianjue’s mansion and still hasn’t left.”
Su Bei picked his eyebrows, there was such a thing in the story, Feng Qianjue didn’t went to the banquet specially prepared for his coming back.
So Feng Jinghuang could only personally go to his mansion for negotiations.
Of course, that kind of thing could never be accomplished in one action, so this time, the old fox Feng Qianjue neither agreed nor objected.
In order to let Feng Qianjue see his sincerity, Feng Jinghuang even offered some cities to him.
Su Bei got up and said, “Go to Feng Qianjue’s mansion.”
He wanted to see how the negotiations between the male lead and female lead were going on.
748 asked, “Wouldn’t the host avoid the female lead?”
A trace of madness flashed across Su Bei’s eyes, so fast to catch, “You think I can avoid it?”
“She is the emperor and I am a courtier, and it is an enemy relationship.”
Speaking of which, Su Bei was kind of excited, “Well, this is the first time the female lead and I are at some kind of hostile relationship!”
Not knowing why, 748 always felt that Su Bei was kind of weird. But just at that very moment, he had resumed his old appearance.
Because everyone was closely watching Su Bei’s every move, so just as he went out, a lot of people had received the news.
So they were even more focused on knowing that Su Bei was going to Feng Qianjue’s mansion.
Everyone knew that a fight was about to break out, but had no idea how it would get triggered.
Just as Su Bei arrived at the gate, someone ran in to report.
He said kindly, “I am here to visit Prince Zhennan.”
But the smile of Su Bei looked quite creepy in other’s eyes, making one feeling cold down the spine.
Feng Qianjue’s housekeeper ran out in a hurry, saying with a neither humble nor arrogant tone, “Lord Su, please hold on for a minute. Someone has already gone to inform our lord.”
Speaking of which, he observed the response of Subei, because in his view, Su Bei who had always acted arrogantly would get mad on hearing that.
But he didn’t. After nodding, Su Bei said no more.
This let the housekeep unable to tell what he was doing here. But their lord could handle it, so that was not something he should be concerned of.
Soon, the servant came back, he said to Su Bei, “The lord said you should go back. It’s not convenient for him to see any guest today.”
Su Bei narrowed his eyes. That son of a b*tch Feng Qianjue! “Go tell your lord that I am here only to watch the show.”
The servant hesitated, and the housekeeper said, “What are you waiting for? Go inform the lord?”
The servant could only go inform Feng Qianjue.
At this time, Feng Qianjun was playing chess with Feng Jinghuang, he smiled, “This Su Bei seems to be somewhat different from the rumors.”
Feng Jinghuang looked at his irretrievable defeat, revealing a smile, “because that man never acts according to the rules, so he is hard to deal with. Imperial uncle, do you need my help?”
Feng Qianjue made a move, which completely checkmated Feng Jingxuan, “Then I’d like to see him.”
Su Bei soon arrived, Feng Qianjian stared at his pair of peach blossom eyes, unable to tell whathe was thinking.
