Sweet pet: The queen is delicate and soft

Xiao Mobai didn't care what the governor's words meant. With his status, he could do whatever he wanted and no one had the right to say anything.

"By saying this, the Governor is dissatisfied with my behavior?"

Xiao Mobai did not accept the attack, but instead attacked the governor's army.

"No, no, Your Highness has misunderstood. I didn't mean this."

Looking at Xiao Mobai's attitude, the governor knew that the young prince was not easy to mess with and hurriedly admitted his mistake.

Even though in his heart, he wanted to kill Xiao Mobai, but since his first plan failed, he must restrain his temper now.

"As long as that's not what the governor meant."

"I dare to ask Your Highness, I wonder where the butler's body is now in the official residence. The butler is fighting with me, and the official wants to collect his body for him. I will show my loyalty as a master and servant."

To confirm whether the housekeeper was dead, the governor needed to see the body before he could feel reassured.

He didn't believe from the bottom of his heart that Xiao Mobai would kill the housekeeper so easily. If it were this kind of city, it wouldn't be worthy of dealing with the Eighth Prince for such a long time.

"Okay, since the governor is so affectionate and righteous, I will help you."

"Come here, take the governor to the housekeeper's body and ask the governor to collect the body for the housekeeper."

Xiao Mobai had already expected that the governor would ask him for someone, and now Ye Mo and others were ready.

Gu Nian did not appear during the entire conversation between Xiao Mobai and the governor. However, Gu Nian heard the conversation clearly and couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing in the room.

Gu Nian already knew what Xiao Mobai had done.

They found a body that had been executed by Cang Long, used extremely clever disguise techniques to disguise it as a housekeeper, and placed it on the mountain behind.

With Xiao Mobai's bodyguard accompanying him, the governor would not examine the body very carefully. Even with careful inspection, the governor couldn't detect it with Canglong's ability.

When Xiao Mobai finished talking to the governor and returned to the room, he saw Gu Nian snickering.

In an instant, Xiao Mobai's mood was also infected by Gu Nian, and he hugged Gu Nian back to his arms with a smile in his eyes.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Of course I'm thinking of the scene where the governor tried his best to find the fake butler."

"You...just like to watch the fun."

Xiao Mobai looked at the little girl's fox-like appearance and sighed fondly.

The governor followed Xiao Mobai's guards up the back mountain. Several guards were holding torches in front, and the governor followed closely behind.

Halfway through, the governor saw the lonely graves on the back hill, and instantly thought of the innocent lives lost in his own hands.

The governor also had a hobby, which was to like young girls from good families.

In the past, the housekeeper helped him find women among the people, and then helped him dispose of the bodies of those women.

In the past, the governor had never asked about these matters. The housekeeper handled them for him, so he didn't know how the corpses were handled.

Now that he saw the lonely grave on the back mountain, the governor suddenly remembered the figures of those women.

Thinking this way, the governor felt his body getting colder and colder as he walked up the mountain. He even felt as if there were a pair of cold hands on his shoulders.

"Um, sir, can we come back tomorrow morning? I suddenly feel a little unwell."

Although the governor wanted to see the butler's body, he couldn't resist the fear in his heart, so he stammered and asked.

When the guard heard this, he turned his head and looked at the governor, but said nothing.

The guard was thinking, wasn't he actively trying to go up the mountain just now? Why did he suddenly regret it?

The guard thought so and looked keenly at the lonely graves around him.

The personal guards around Xiao Mobai naturally have a very keen sense of smell.

When daylight came, they discovered the lonely grave on the back mountain, but they didn't think much about it at that time, because the back mountain was just close to the governor's residence and was not the governor's private property.

At that time, they thought that the people around them had buried their deceased relatives and friends here.

But now seeing the governor's abnormal reaction, the guard guessed that there must be something fishy involved.

"Okay, since you are not feeling well, let's come back tomorrow."

Although the guard noticed something was wrong, he did not make any noise at this time. They need to report this matter to Lord Yezhao as soon as possible when they return.

Ye Zhao is not only the personal bodyguard of Xiao Mobai and Gu Nian, but also the commander and highest officer of these guards.

After receiving permission from His Royal Highness's bodyguard, the governor quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Finally he could go down this strange mountain.

As soon as the governor returned to his room, he got into his quilt and did not dare to show his head for a long time, for fear that the lonely ghosts on the back mountain would come to seek his life.

Xiao Mobai's bodyguard also found Ye Zhao to report the matter as soon as he returned.

"Knock down."

There was another knock on Xiao Mobai's door, and then Ye Zhao's voice rang out.

"Master, it's me."

Candlelight was already lighting up in Xiao Mobai and Gu Nian's room. The candlelight reflected the shadow of Xiao Mobai squatting on the ground.

"Come in."

Xiao Mobai had heard Ye Zhao's footsteps a long time ago and knew that it was him who came, so he asked him to open the door and come in by himself.

When Ye Zhao came in, Gu Nian was sitting on the stool, and Xiao Mobai was squatting on the ground taking off Gu Nian's shoes and socks.

In front of Xiao Mobai, there was a basin of water.

If Ye Zhao's guess was correct, their master should be preparing to wash the mistress's feet.

"What's the matter?"

Feeling that Ye Zhao had walked in, Xiao Mobai did not stop the movements in his hands, and did not even turn around to look at Ye Zhao. Instead, he further grabbed Gu Nian's white and tender feet and placed them in the basin.

Without waiting for Ye Zhao to answer, he heard his master's voice again.

"How about it, is the water temperature right?"

This voice was different from the coldness just now, but was extremely gentle.

"Well, the water temperature is just right. Brother Mo Bai, please stop being busy. Ye Zhao came over. I think I have something to tell you."

After Gu Nian said this, Xiao Mobai had finished his work, so he followed her instructions and stood up from in front of Gu Nian, then sat on the chair next to Gu Nian.

"Go ahead."

After confirming that his master had finished his serious business, Ye Zhao dared to reveal the purpose of his visit.

"Back to the master, the guards who just took the governor up the mountain came to report that when the governor was halfway up the mountain, he suddenly declared that he was feeling unwell and refused to go any further."

"Oh? This is really an interesting thing."

Xiao Mobai raised his eyebrows with interest when he heard Ye Zhao's reply.

"Yes, the guards also felt something was wrong. They felt that the governor's abnormality was related to the lonely graves halfway up the mountain."
