Although Mouth King was a hundred times reluctant, the situation still developed in a direction that was unfavorable to him.
At this time, playing as the Judging Governor, he found himself in a predicament.
Not cooperate, mess around blindly?
Then the public opinion in support of the Judging Governor would keep getting lower, and the Emperor would push forward policies limiting the Governor's power more quickly.
Even if Mouth King, as the Judging Governor, were to slack off for an extended period, public opinion would plummet, and the resources needed for these policies would decrease significantly.
In other words, the Emperor could advance these policies without spending much in terms of resources.
But what if he did cooperate?
That would be useless too.
Because the Emperor had already made up his mind to limit the Governor's power, and if the Governor cooperated properly, although the pace would be slower than if he did not cooperate, it would still be a steady progress.
