Chapter 22

Zhao Baili's steward, looking at Zhao Baili who had already packed up and was preparing to go out, said with a full face of smiles: "This is a great joy!"

"Haha—"

Zhao Baili listened to the steward's words, his face glowing with health, and he laughed proudly: "Today is my great day of joy; tonight, everyone in the mansion can rest for a day, and the reward money for this month will be doubled!"

"Thank you, Master!!!"

The steward and the surrounding servants cheered instantly, all very excited.

Zhao Baili, under the farewell of his whole family, strode out of the main gate and headed towards the government office.

Along the way,

Zhao Baili met quite a few colleagues,

many of whom came forward to congratulate him,

all very envious of his promotion to Commandant of the Palace Guards.

Listening to the compliments along the way, Zhao Baili was in a very good mood and very proud.

"Eh..."

Suddenly, Zhao Baili saw a familiar figure appear ahead, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this Lord Meng Yi? Lord Meng Yi, what a coincidence..."

Seeing Meng Yi ahead, Zhao Baili immediately walked towards him quickly with a full face of smiles.

"Lord Meng Yi..."

Zhao Baili walked to Meng Yi's side and said with a smile: "Today is my great day of joy; tonight I am hosting a banquet at my mansion. I wonder if Lord Meng Yi has time to come to my mansion for a drink?"

Meng Yi heard Zhao Baili's voice, and his brow instantly furrowed, a look of disgust flashing deep in his eyes.

Looking back, he saw Zhao Baili's face with a fake smile.

He saw the proud look in his eyes.

"A small person getting ahead."

Meng Yi had always disliked Zhao Baili, who was Zhao Gao's nephew, snorted coldly in his heart, and said indifferently: "This official has matters today, so I will not attend the banquet."

Zhao Baili naturally knew that Meng Yi did not like him.

Listening to his words, he sneered in his heart.

But his face was full of smiles, and he said: "That is a pity, but the main gate of my Zhao mansion is always open for you, Lord Minister..."

Meng Yi looked coldly at Zhao Baili and turned to leave.

As a Great Qin Minister, how could someone like Zhao Baili enter his eyes if it weren't for the fact that his uncle was Zhao Gao?

He couldn't be bothered to pay attention.

Seeing Meng Yi's attitude, Zhao Baili was angry in his heart but did not dare to be presumptuous, could only keep smiling, follow Meng Yi's footsteps, and continue to talk to him.

And just at this moment,

a carriage suddenly drove over from the side of the road and stopped directly in front of Meng Yi, blocking his way.

Meng Yi looked at the carriage that had suddenly stopped in front of him, and his brow instantly furrowed.

It was not far from the Xianyang Palace now,

on this official road,

how could there suddenly be such a careless carriage blocking the way of them, the public ministers and officials?!
