Governor's Residence.
The Governor sat in his seat with a stack of documents in front of him.
He opened one of the documents and shook his head.
Then, he went on and opened another document from the stack.
The Governor gave out a long sigh and shook his head again when he saw what was written in it.
"All these corrupted souls only know how to ask for money…" The Governor grumbled and opened another one of the documents.
When he saw what was written in it, he cursed and flung the document aside.
No wonder the peasants' life was hell.
The imperial officials under him only knew how to ask for a budget while having their hands deep in the various vices like gambling dens in the city.
None of them did much work and the peasants had to pay bribes to get them moving an inch.
If he had his way, he would execute them as he would have if the rebellion had succeeded.
But he knew that he couldn't do so now that he had a stint as the Governor.
