Governor Cao followed his master to the door quickly, and saw two women standing outside the door.

One master and one servant.

The master is in his early twenties, wearing a water-red dress with golden flowers embroidered on the hem, which is very gorgeous. He wears a white fox cloak, which adds to the nobility.

Her skin is fair and flawless, her eyebrows are curved and her eyes are round. She is very delicate and somewhat gentle.

Smiling softly, there is still a small pear dimple.

The maid next to her was about the same height as her. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was wearing an emerald green dress that looked like a smart outfit. On her feet were a pair of small black leather boots with the tips turned up.

There is also a small short knife on the side of the maid's waist. The scabbard is inlaid with various gemstones, making it sparkling.

The little girl has slender eyebrows and slightly raised eyes, a bit unruly.

Before the master could speak, the little maid raised her chin and said, "Hey, are you the official here?"

Governor Cao was suddenly asked this question and didn't know what to answer.

This is too rude.

He stroked his beard and said nothing, and the little maid asked again: "What? Are you mute?"

The master frowned and said, "This is my governor, please don't be rude."

The lady nodded slightly: "It turns out to be Governor Cao. I wonder if I can go in and talk?"

Governor Cao said in his heart, fortunately, the master understands etiquette.

"Please come in."

Entering the front hall, Governor Cao dismissed the others and asked the master to make the brazier hotter, and served hot tea and snacks.

"Your Highness, please sit down."

The Ninth Princess sat down and looked at Governor Cao: "I heard that Governor Cao is very good at running the city. When I saw him today, he really lived up to his reputation."

Governor Cao forced a smile and said, "Your Highness is very grateful. Your Highness's guard of honor is still a hundred miles away. Why are you here?"

If something big happened, that would be a big deal.

Governor Cao is still panicking. Although he is only the governor of Youcheng, if something happens to Princess Dachengjiu anywhere in the northwest, they will not be able to escape the punishment.

The Ninth Princess smiled slightly: "Walking with them all day long, this is not okay, that is not okay, I will be bored to death. To be honest, sir, I am playful by nature and not restrained. Father said, you guys There are many rules. If I go to Beijing to get married, I will be bound by the rules every day. "

"Instead of that, it's better to have some fun before going to Beijing."

Hearing what she said, Governor Cao had to wonder if she was just faking her illness before, because she just didn't want to go to Beijing so quickly and wanted to play for a while longer.

However, this aunt wants to go to places in the south of the Yangtze River. What is there to do here? It's all ice and snow.

Governor Cao didn't want to continue this topic, and he couldn't control it. Even the emperor of Dacheng couldn't control the ninth princess. He, a small governor, couldn't do this.

"Your Highness, you just said that you can solve my problem? I don't know what you mean?"

Governor Cao didn't want to let the Ninth Princess solve any problem. Their people were not dead yet.

What's more, the trouble now is in the military camp. Military camp, is that kind of place accessible to outsiders?

What's more, Dacheng might have some ulterior motives for marrying off his daughter and getting married.

He just wanted to test it out and see what and how much the Ninth Princess knew.

The Ninth Princess smiled lightly: "What is Governor Cao's biggest headache now?"

Governor Cao stroked his forehead and pretended to think: "The biggest headache is the opening of the porridge shop in the next two days. The Chinese New Year has just passed and the people are living and working in peace and contentment. Although our Youcheng is not a big and wealthy city, it is still passable. Now we are home." The family is not short of food, but the porridge business is not going well. "

"However, this is also the intention of a good man in the city, and we must push forward."

The little maid sneered: "We saw it when we came here. Although there were not many people in the porridge place, the pots were almost empty. There are a lot of people eating during the day, right?"

Governor Cao had just returned not long ago, so of course he knew.

He glanced at the little maid and said slowly: "The so-called porridge restaurant means that it must be done well and refined, otherwise it would be better not to do this good thing. Today, the porridge restaurant cooks thick porridge, or eight-treasure porridge with various ingredients. It’s sweet and thick, I even drank a bowl, it’s very good.”

"This porridge was set up by a kind man to accumulate blessings for his family. At the same time, he also restrained his family from acting arrogantly and not opening his mouth to create karma."

The little maid was attentive, frowned and thought for a moment, and understood something: "You!"

Governor Cao was too lazy to talk to her, so what was there to argue with a little maid?

"Your Highness, I wonder how many people you have brought here? Although the honor guard has not come, your status remains unchanged. I will go to inform the post house and pick you up to stay."

Every big city has a post house, especially a big city like this that borders other countries.

"Your Highness doesn't want to stay in an inn!" the little maid said coldly, "We have already found an inn, so you don't need to worry about it."

Governor Cao is really angry, why don't you bother? Could he not bother? This is his territory. If anything goes wrong, not to mention himself, his whole family, his subordinates, and who knows how many people will suffer.

When it comes to two countries, can this be done arbitrarily? Is it something that a maid can take care of?

Governor Cao calmed down his anger and looked at the Ninth Princess: "Your Highness, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to stay in an inn. Our post house is well decorated. We heard that His Highness was coming and they had already prepared to welcome him. There are many people in the inn. It’s inconvenient and not safe.”

"Wouldn't it be bad if the princess was injured in any way? I don't want that to happen."

"Your Excellency, you are overly worried. I heard that the security of Youcheng is in good condition, and your city guards are also brave and good at fighting. I believe that I will not be in any danger here, let alone be harmed."

The Ninth Princess smiled and said, "Or is it that you don't have much confidence in the security of the city?"

Listen, what is this?

Governor Cao gritted his back molars, and his smile was no longer gentle: "Your Highness, what you said is wrong. Public security in Youcheng is naturally good, but it requires your Highness's cooperation. If you don't obey the arrangements, then there is nothing I can do."

"The Dacheng Army is also brave and good at fighting, and there are frictions with several surrounding countries. This time the princess leaves for Beijing, other countries must also know the news. The princess's whereabouts have also been tracked early. If her body is damaged due to negligence, I will …”

Governor Cao laughed softly and shook his head.

The following words are not said, but the meaning is self-evident.

Your country has offended others, and you did it yourself. When something goes wrong, will you let me take the blame?

The smile of the Ninth Princess faded slightly, and the little maid said angrily: "You are a dog official, just a governor, how dare you push the princess like this? Our princess has never heard such words? Even in the Dacheng Palace, our emperor never said this to the princess. Say it!”

Governor Cao said calmly: "This is not the Dacheng Palace. The princess is here for marriage. She will be a member of our country from now on, so she must abide by our rules."

"I think the emperor will be kind to the princess when he sees her, but I don't dare. I have to put the princess' safety first."

"If I have to choose between making the princess angry or ensuring her safety, I would rather choose the latter."
