Shao Yŭxuān was in the middle of glossing through petitions for tax reductions, when he heard he had a sudden guest. Although he was not expecting anyone at the time, he had said person escorted inside.
However, his mood was ruined the moment he laid eyes on none other than Treasury director Ming, holding two green scrolls, one in each hand. He took a polite bow to the Minister, who in turn rolled his eyes at him.
"Director Ming, you're here again? Isn't it the third time this week? How long will you sing the same verse?" He casually dropped the petition letter in hand, and shifted his weight onto his palm, a bored expression in his eyes.
Director Ming Baozhai remained stoic, "Minister, forgive me for doing this, but I have a duty to fulfill as well. And the issue of the tax rates cannot be overlooked." He said.
