*Shao Residence*
"Young master Shao, Minister Zhào has arrived." A servant announced with her head bowed, Shao Yŭxuān waved her away and sent the rest of his Junior officials from his office away.
On their way out they were met by Minister Zhào Susu, whose cold expression was a sharp contrast to the flippant smile he usually wore. Shao Yŭxuān who had been expecting the minister of finance rose from his feet and marched over to meet him.
"I've been trying to contact you for the past two days now! Why are you always like this?!" Shao Yŭxuān scolded, sending a harsh glare at his guest.
Zhào Susu replied, "So, why have you taken the trouble to summon me here?"
His detached tone threw Shao Yŭxuān off but he quickly recovered and straightened his back. "Tell me quickly, what did that old goat tell you? You didn't say anything about me did you?"
