Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

The governor heard the news that the prince was coming, and hurriedly put on his official uniform and went out to greet him.

"I didn't know that His Highness the Crown Prince was coming, but the ministers were disappointed to greet him from afar."

The governor had learned about Xiao Mobai's presence a few days ago, but he had been busy with disaster relief work today and had not had a chance to visit the prince. Unexpectedly, the prince came today.

The governor saluted Xiao Mobai and welcomed him in respectfully.

"It's okay. I know that the governor has been busy with disaster relief today, and I don't blame you."

Xiao Mobai took Gu Nian's hand, placed Gu Nian on the main seat as usual, and sat next to Gu Nian.

Xiao Mobai has always been somewhat tolerant of good officials who work hard and love the people. There is no reason to worry about the governor not meeting him in time.

"I am here today because of the admiral's affairs."

"Wei Chen doesn't quite understand what His Highness means. Please make it clear."

In fact, the governor had long disliked the admiral, but even though he was his subordinate, the governor did not dare to touch him easily.

Just because behind this admiral is the eighth prince who is currently very powerful. If the admiral was moved, his own official position would be in jeopardy.

It's not that he pays much attention to his official position, but if he leaves, I'm afraid his position will belong to the admiral, and the people's lives will be miserable.

"Your officials did not care about the lives of the people during the flood, and drank and had fun. Don't you know, the governor?"

Xiao Mobai didn't know at this moment that the admiral was a member of the Eighth Prince, and he only acted as a governor to discipline his subordinate officials.

"Go back to Your Highness, your subordinates know it, but let's not hide it from Your Highness. The admiral is a member of the Eighth Prince, and I don't dare to punish him lightly."

Hearing what the governor said, Xiao Mobai was secretly angry.

"I heard about the governor's personal relief work, and thought that he was a good official who wholeheartedly served the people, but I never thought that he is also a person who is afraid of power."

"Back to Your Highness, it is precisely because I think about the people that I do not easily cause trouble to the Admiral."

When the governor saw Xiao Mobai leading Gu Nian to the main seat and sitting down, although he was surprised in his heart, it didn't show on his face.

On the contrary, he answered Xiao Mobai's question in a neither humble nor overbearing manner.

"Oh? Since the governor said this, I would like to know the reason."

Xiao Mobai vaguely guessed why the governor did not move the admiral, but he still wanted to hear it from the governor himself.

"Back to Your Highness, the Admiral is a member of the Eighth Prince's family. If I cause trouble for the Admiral, the consequences can be imagined. The Admiral will not be fine, but I will most likely not be able to sit down as the governor. ."

The governor's words really confirmed Xiao Mobai's inner guess.

But even so, Xiao Mobai still couldn't figure it out.

"But, even so, if the Eighth Prince wants to send the admiral to the position of governor, I'm afraid that even if you don't take the initiative to trouble him, I'm afraid the Eighth Prince will easily let you lose this position, right?"

Although Xiao Mobai had traveled a lot with the current emperor before, this place was his first time here, so he didn't know how the governor secured his position.

But soon, the governor answered Xiao Mobai's question.

"Going back to Your Highness, the reason Wei Chen was able to achieve his current official position without any background is because the current emperor discovered Wei Chen's personal relief work a few years ago."

"How to say?"

When Xiao Mobai heard this, he couldn't help but wonder. It turned out that he was able to sit in the position of governor because of his father?

"Going back to Your Highness, a few years ago, Your Majesty also came for an inspection just like Your Highness does today.

Because it rains a lot here, floods are common.

At that time, Wei Chen was still a small county magistrate, leading the people to resist the water ring. His Majesty, who came incognito, saw him and promoted Wei Chen to his current official position. "

At this point in the governor's words, Xiao Mobai understood the reason without the governor saying anything more.

The official position of governor was promoted by his father personally because of his political achievements.

Even if the Eighth Emperor's uncle wants his people to go further, he still has to consider the governor who was personally promoted by his father.

On the one hand, although the Eighth Prince is powerful, he is still just a prince after all, and he cannot go too far.

On the other hand, it was because the Eighth Prince had not made any mistakes since the governor took office, so he could only let his own people resign themselves to the position of admiral and could not go any further.

Thinking about it this way, for the sake of the people, the governor can be said to be cautious every day, walking on thin ice.

As for why the Eighth Prince is willing to let his own people take the position of admiral, it is probably because there are many floods in this place.

According to the admiral's tendency to collect money this time, I'm afraid most of the money went into the Eighth Prince's pocket.

"Okay, since you have worked so hard, I will give you this opportunity this time.

I personally go with you to seize the disaster relief money that the admiral embezzled. I have even prepared the evidence. Do you dare to go with me? "

Considering what Xiao Mobai said, how could the governor refuse this rare opportunity? He had disliked the admiral for a long time.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has orders, and all ministers must obey them."

"Okay, take all your troops and go with me immediately."

The governor and Xiao Mobai reached an agreement and headed to the Admiral's Mansion with their troops.

When we arrived in front of the Admiral's Mansion, the Admiral had not gotten up yet because he had worked too late last night.

Therefore, the admiral, who was awakened by Xiao Mobai's fight, walked out of the house angrily and angrily.

Even his own soldier wanted to remind him about the missing hair, but he kicked him to the ground before he could say anything.

Not only the people in the Admiral's Mansion, but also the people around him heard the commotion and formed a circle in front of the Admiral's Mansion, wanting to see the excitement.

Unexpectedly, he would see the usually majestic and domineering Admiral rushing out of the gate of the Admiral's Mansion with his head bare.

For a moment, the people laughed endlessly, and even Gu Nian beside Xiao Mobai couldn't hold back, covering his mouth and laughing softly.

The admiral, who was immediately stunned by the laughter, looked at the people around him in confusion. After realizing that the object of ridicule was actually him, he turned around and looked at the servants behind him.

An old man who looked like a butler walked over quickly and whispered something into the admiral's ear.

The admiral's eyes suddenly opened wide, and then he reached out to touch his head.

He found that just as the housekeeper said, he had a bald head and glared at the surrounding people and Xiao Mobai and others.

However, the situation at the moment did not allow him to get angry. He had to cover his bare head as soon as possible in order to punish them.
