Chapter 321 – Alan in the Confinement Room
“Still busy, father.” Pamela Mountbatten, who had returned to the Governor’s Mansion, saw her Governor’s father holding a piece of paper in thought, and with a snort of greeting, she wanted to go and rest.
“Pamela, wait, you want to see this.” Governor Mountbatten sighed in his mind as he looked at his beaming daughter and handed over the letter of report.
“What’s wrong?” With a face full of doubts, Pamela Mountbatten took the report letter and read it.
In the report letter, said the current British India Commissioner Assistant Alan Wilson, accepting bribes, and subordinates have improper male and female relations, as well as public power private use and other sins.
Reporting letter mentioned the current Hyderabad Commissioner Alisha some things as evidence, justified in the section, said as if there is really such a thing as.
“Pamela, in fact, accepting bribes, as well as the private use of public power I can pretend not to see. But the item of maintaining improper male-female relationships with subordinates, if it were on someone else, I could also ignore it, but you are my daughter, it’s different.” Governor Mountbatten looked at his daughter and said, “I oppose your continued relationship, it’s settled.”
“Father, you should at least check.” Originally Pamela Mountbatten saw this one whistle-blowing letter, the heart is indeed sad, but heard his own governor father so said, immediately woke up hastily said, “can’t be because of a whistle-blowing letter on the people convicted, whistle-blowing letter everyone can write, this is no cost thing. On the contrary, every day I can see Alan thinking about the future of the British Empire, I can not see this from other civil servants.”
Governor Mountbatten was filled with dismay, unable to believe that this was his own daughter, who would now be justified in opposing him.
But as if his daughter had a point, he took a step back and said, “You still can’t see him until this matter is cleared up.”
Simple-minded Allen Wilson, being played with, was still ignorant of everything that was going on at the moment.
Do not take long, I will be promoted and paid, as a general manager, as a CEO, to marry a rich white woman, on the peak of life, think about it is also a little excited dream.
In the next day he ushered in the treatment of being hammered all over his head, in the conversation of Sir Barron, he only knew the existence of this whistle-blowing letter, the heart stirred to listen to Sir Barron finish his words, the anger can not be let out of the shouts, “Smears, false, premeditated planting, in the blunt but despicable behavior.”
“The letter of report was directed to the Governor.” Sir Barron waited until his assistant had calmed down before saying, “Do you know what that means?”
“It’s myself who is manhandling me. It must be a civil servant! It couldn’t have been an Indian, an Indian couldn’t have gotten around a civil servant in the Viceroy’s office, only an Englishman with knowledge of our procedures could have done that.” Allen Wilson took two steps back and forth the road and copied up the phone directly.
“This is Ender.” The voice of Ender, the commissioner’s secretary, came from inside the microphone.
“This is Allen, the confinement room is empty I think, I’d like to go in for a few days.” Alan Wilson said dryly, “Don’t have anyone come over except to deliver food, meanwhile start an investigation into my crimes, that’s it.”
Sir Barron, who had prepared a stomachful of words, looked at his assistant’s performance and laughed bitterly, “Is it so extreme? Even if something is wrong, I can help you cover it up.”
“But I have no crime to confess.” Putting down the phone Allen Wilson let out a long breath and said, “Just investigate, I’m not afraid of anything.”
“Well, since you’re the one who said so, let’s go to the confinement room first, it hasn’t been used for quite a long time, clean it up.” Sir Barron shook his head, people themselves have asked to be dealt with severely, what else can he say.
Alan Wilson lived in the confinement room, the news that the Governor’s Office had already investigated him quickly spread.
The Governor’s Office is certainly not small, nor is it big without bounds, Pamela Mountbatten soon learned, with the assistance of her mother sneaked out and ran to the confinement room to see her sweetheart.
Also thanks to the Governor’s day-to-day life, it is impossible to put all the time to watch over his daughter, only to give Pamela the opportunity.
“You stayed quite leisurely.” Seeing Alan Wilson enjoying himself, Pamela Mountbatten let go of her heart and complained, “Thanks to me worrying so much.”
“I couldn’t go to hell. I stayed out there and the others were thinking I was using some kind of trick to cover up my crime.” Alan Wilson laughed exaggeratedly, “Now wouldn’t staying here get you out of suspicion? I think this is just fine, listen to the warm winter and cool summer, quiet and undisturbed, just use this time to finish the textbook that Malaya needs.”
Recall the copy text is also need time and environment, even if Alan Wilson thinks that the history subject is not bad, but there are always forgotten places, not to mention that you have to add some of your own neutral insights.
That’s why even though it’s already in the Ming and Qing stages, it’s still always going backward to enrich the textbook.
For example, the Han and Tang dynasties have two emperors with great achievements but can be called unlucky. Emperor Xuan Di of the Han Dynasty completely defeated the Xiong Nu and set up the Western Regions Capital, and all the credit goes to Emperor Wu Di of the Han Dynasty.
Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty destroyed Western Turkestan and Goguryeo and laid down the largest territory of the central dynasty, and people were interested in his father and his wife.
Where can we justify this? Although the textbook such serious things, must control their hands do not stuff personal goods. But it was still fine to embellish it a bit, and not to make these two emperors too transparent.
“Would you lie to me about this?” Through the barred window, Pamela Mountbatten was like visiting a prison. Hearing Allen Wilson’s words also relaxed her heart, but was still torn about whether this man would lie to himself.
“Honey, it is possible if I want to.” Allen Wilson said honestly, pen in hand, “But I don’t have to do it, I can’t admit to something I didn’t do.”
“Who do you think is reporting you.” Pamela Mountbatten had unknowingly been thinking in Alan Wilson’s shoes, asking who might have planted the evidence, she just hadn’t found it within herself yet.
“It must have been a civil servant, or else she wouldn’t have known the Governor’s Office, talking about Hyderabad, and knowing that Alisa is a female civil servant that I look up to, the suspicion is much smaller again.” Alan Wilson cocked his head and thought for a second, “There was only one candidate from the beginning to the end of the list of candidates for the appointment of the Hyderabad Commissioner, perhaps the other contenders were not convinced in their minds. It’s easy enough to unmask me, just call Alisha over and ask her.”
“I’ve only seen Sir Barron since I arrived at the Governor’s Mansion, there’s no way I could have contacted the outside. No one has come to see me so far either, unless Sir Barron himself helps, otherwise the possibility of me contacting Hyderabad is eliminated. One could have just called Alisa, who doesn’t know I’m being investigated yet, and asked her to clear my name.”
Pamela Mountbatten kept nodding her head, thinking that her beloved inside the bars had a point. It’s all at this time, but also in danger, to find a solution to the problem, this is the man he is looking for.
The most important thing between people is trust, this man said that he was wrongly accused, then it must be wrongly accused. Pamela Mountbatten’s mind had made up its mind to get to the bottom of this.
“I’ll bring you something good to eat when I come back next time.” Pamela Mountbatten gently comforted through the barred window.
“Bring more fruit.” Allen Wilson was still showing the side of the body slanting without fear of the shadow being right, as if the world was balanced.
For the current Governor-General’s House, there is no greater matter than the Burmese leader Aung San who has come to the door.
Governor Mountbatten and Nehru, the leader of the Congress Party, are waiting at the Governor’s House, ready to talk to Aung San himself about the Rohingya issue.
The Rohingya issue can be seen as a scaled-down version of the Indo-Pakistani partition, with the same mix of religious and ethnic elements.
For Nehru, the Rohingya, at least for now, are not pacifists but Hindus. The Congress party up and down the country is still working towards taking over the whole of British India rather than thinking about any Indo-Pak partition.
Just because it’s small doesn’t mean it’s not a big problem, and Aung San, after meeting with Mountbatten and Nehru, and learning that the two men wanted the Rohingya to return to their homeland, very forcefully rejected it, saying, “That’s impossible, these people are not native to Burma, they are Indians, and there’s no reason for Indians to live in Burma.”
“Am I to take it that General Aung San has anti-Indian tendencies.” Nehru questioned with great displeasure, “If so, Burma will have to bear all the consequences of such an attitude in the future.”
If Alan Wilson had not been in the brig, he would have nodded in approval of the future Indian Prime Minister’s imperialist rhetoric. Now that’s a Viceroy of a great power with a voice, and it’s simply uninformed for Burma in the District to disrespect a great power with a voice.
Thinking out of the box, if Aung San himself is bound to be sacrificed in the infighting, the murderer could have been a Rohingya, and he could have stirred up the relationship between India and Myanmar.
It’s a pity he didn’t see the scene, but that’s okay, we’ll always know once we’re out of the brig.
Aung San may not have dared to take offense at the British Empire, the source of the evil, but he was not so polite to Nehru, who was also a colony, ignoring the important role of the British Empire in the emergence of the Rohingyas.
A scathing rebuttal of Nehru’s grievances bites at Myanmar’s bottom line that the expulsion of the Rohingya is a fait accompli, which is irrevocable, and wanting Myanmar to re-include these Indians is even more impossible.
No matter what Nehru and Mountbatten said, Aung San insisted on this bottom line, and there was nothing to talk about in this matter at all.
After Arizona, Mountbatten, who had come to India as Viceroy, met the oily independence leader for the second time. Two similar figures in a row began to make Mountbatten realize, the complexity of the problem of British India.
In the evening of this day, Mountbatten frankly expressed the frustration in his heart when he faced Churchill, who was also his mentor and friend, “A lot of people say that I am good at coordinating, but this time it was the hardest coordinating job I have ever seen.”
