The Clan Head Of Jade Fountain Cultivation Sect

*Treasury bureau*

The junior officials all clasped their hands as the treasury director walked past them through the gates. One would think that the Minister was stepping out for a bit.

But in truth, he was just leaving for home, after spending two whole days on seat, he decided to go home to gather more basic necessities.

On his way towards an awaiting carriage, a servant from the Ming family house fell at his feet, panting desperately for air.

The guards at the gate made a move to apprehend him, but the director held up his palm, halting them in their steps. He faced the young boy who had served in their family for years, and stretched out his hand to him.

The servant refused to take his hand but instead hit his head against the sand, "Master Ming...there is trouble!" He cried out in a loud voice.

Ming Baozhai felt his heart clench, "What happened back home?" It had been a while since he last paid a visit to the Ming family house.
