"Although I don't know everything, I do know some. However, Ali Khan is not an ordinary princely monarch. In the upper class society in London, Ali Khan also received full courtesy. Now the monarch of Hyderabad wants to do this, and I have no reason.
Objection." Alan Wilson looked helpless and shied away all his responsibilities when he opened his mouth.
Since Ali Khan is a figure registered in the eyes of the royal family of the British Empire, it is more appropriate for Ali Khan himself to take the blame for colluding with the princes, as the other party also has this ability.
Although the British Empire was a monarchy, it was at least the source of a capitalist country. Therefore, it not only respected Ali Khan's title of monarch, but also valued Ali Khan's huge wealth. The combination of the two made Ali Khan's value very important in London.
"Although you are not old, you learn this aspect quite quickly." Sir Barron smiled and pointed out Alan Wilson's words to shirk responsibility. He took a deep breath and said, "But at this critical time, I always
We cannot ignore Nehru's pressure. At present, the stability of British India is more important than anything else. Let me think about what to do. You must not go to General Mountbatten, he is very wary of you!"
I just sent a document! Alan Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and had to leave Sir Barron's office. As soon as he went out, he went straight to General Mountbatten's villa. Sir Barron's subtext was to find General Mountbatten immediately.
Method.
After some inquiring and confirming that General Mountbatten was at the headquarters, he knocked directly on the door of the villa. In order to solve the current crisis, he could not care so much.
"If you can't handle me this time, the death toll in India after independence will at least double." Greeting Nehru, Alan Wilson secretly felt cruel in his heart. He just wanted to strengthen the power of the princely state and contacted him again.
The Portuguese are prepared to provide themselves with certain benefits.
What's wrong with this? Isn't India not independent yet? Is this British India still a colony of the British Empire? What's wrong with him doing this in his own colony!
But Nehru just didn't understand the general situation, so Alan Wilson, who had good intentions and hoped that India would be more democratic, ran into trouble that should not have arisen. This is simply abominable.
After solving this trouble, he will definitely let Nehru know the consequences in the next time.
"Aren't you in South India? Why did you come to my house again? What did you do this time?" As soon as Pamela Mountbatten opened the door and saw Alan Wilson, she immediately asked the three questions of her soul again.
"I hope that the next time we meet, we won't face this kind of continuity problem." Alan Wilson looked at Pamela Mountbatten steadily, looked past her and looked into the room, "You can let me in."
Well, I came here specially and brought you a gift."
What does this place in South Asia have? In addition to some well-known specialties, it is also the home of gemstones in the ancient social world. The crown jewel is also a literal meaning for the British Empire. Before diamond mines were discovered in South Africa and Brazil, diamonds were also processed here.
Alan Wilson, who knows the history of the center, knows that because of labor costs, this has not changed in the 21st century.
The Hyderabad Commissioner spent a lot of money on this trip and brought a large diamond from Ali Khan. In his opinion, even if it is not ten carats, it is not far behind.
"I can't have it, it's too expensive." Pamela Mountbatten glanced at the diamond from the corner of her eyes and refused sincerely, "Last time you came here, there were already rumors, so giving diamonds this time is nothing."
Do you think I want this? Alan Wilson was so angry that he calmed down and sighed, "I'm in trouble now. I hope I can successfully get through the current difficulties."
Then he told all about the gathering organized in the state of Hyderabad, the response of the Congress Party, and the causes and consequences.
"Is it Nehru who wants to cause trouble for you?" Pamela Mountbatten was greatly surprised. "I heard that Nehru seemed quite arrogant and could pay attention to your work in Hyderabad. However, you
You should talk to Sir Barron or Governor Wavell."
"It's certainly useful to go to Sir Barron and Governor Wavell, but it's even more useful to go to your father." Alan Wilson said with a "Don't lie to me" expression. The royal family of the British Empire is definitely not a decoration, at least not yet.
Once upon a time, Alan Wilson would never have imagined that he would actually bribe an underage girl. But the world is so strange. The most authoritative person in British India at present is Mountbatten, who holds the template of the Great British Dragon.
If you want to gain wealth by taking risks, you should deal with Pamela Mountbatten first, but it seems that the British do not practice the old-fashioned way. The possibility of facing jail is higher.
"What was your look just now?" Pamela Mountbatten moved back unconsciously, and she happened to catch Alan Wilson's look just now.
"I'm thinking about how to get through this difficulty." Lying with a red face and a heartbeat is no longer difficult for Alan Wilson now, not to mention that the person he wants to deceive is still an underage girl.
"Let me ask for you!" After being indoctrinated with words for a long time, Pamela Mountbatten finally couldn't stand it anymore. She didn't have many friends in British India, although the Hyderabad Commissioner in front of her didn't either.
Although they were familiar with each other, Pamela Mountbatten felt a little apologetic because she had caused trouble to the other party last time.
It's not that she was really greedy for diamonds or anything, Pamela Mountbatten thought so, and made a very brave decision for her to help this middle-level and high-level civil servant and test her father's tone.
The atmosphere in the Government House of British India was very embarrassing. Governor Wavell was dressed in military uniform and looked more like the commander-in-chief than Mountbatten, who was in casual clothes. But that was right, he was the previous commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in Southeast Asia.
Governor Wavell, who had been a field marshal long before the Governor-General of British India, usually did not interfere in the work of the Government House and was the head of the civil service, Lord Barron, whom he trusted very much.
Of course Sir Barron was also in the room, looking relaxed as if he didn't know anything about it. Mountbatten hesitated and asked, "What do you think of Sir Barron's protest against the Congress Party?"
"In principle, the current British India does need the Congress Party's support for the war, but we have to consider another thing, which is the authority of the Governor-General's Office." Sir Barron said with a slight pause, "
It's not a big deal in itself, I believe Nehru wouldn't take it to heart."
Oh! Mountbatten nodded clearly, but in his heart he was not satisfied with the answer. Why would his daughter find an opportunity to speak for this person?
"Well, let me meet him and communicate." Mountbatten said to Sir Barron, "Don't worry, it's just a simple chat. I believe that communication is not difficult for me."
An imperceptible smile flashed across Sir Barron's lips, and then he looked solemn, "Since the Commander-in-Chief thinks it's appropriate, I believe this country commissioner has no reason to refuse."
