In terms of grade, it is a positive two products. However, in general, the viceroy of the Qing Dynasty also added the title of Shangshu, such as bingbu Shangshu, or the imperial history of the Duchayuan. Therefore, the governor is generally congyipin, a veritable feudal official.
In addition, among the viceroys of the Qing Dynasty, there were also those in charge of special affairs, such as the governor of the river to manage the river, and the governor of Caoyun to manage the water transport.
The Admiral is the abbreviation of the Admiralty's Chief Military Officer, a senior military attaché of a province, who controls the armed forces of the province. There are towns, consorts, battalions, and floods at all levels under the admiral, and subordinate officers include generals, deputy generals, staff generals, guerrillas, and capital divisions. When the navy was established at the end of the Qing Dynasty, there were also admirals in the navy.

Therefore, it is clear that the Governor is of a higher status and more powerful than the Governor.
