Bai Qingqing raised her head, three giant characters came to her sight---Prime Minister Mansion.
Red gate, majestic stone lions and eight family retainers standing proudly at the gate.
She took the trouble of crossing the mountains and rivers, coming all the way from Lin'an County to the capital city. Finally, she made it here.
"Excuse me, gentlemen, is here the mansion of Qin Zizheng the Prime Minister?"
The young bunch of family retainers raised their eyebrows high. When they saw it was just an eighteen- or nineteen-year old girl in simple and coarse clothes who was talking to them, a glimpse of distain streaked through their eyes.
The family retainer who stood closest to her replied with a sneer, "That's correct, this is the Prime Minister's mansion. Who am I speaking to?"
"Please inform the Prime Minister that Bai Qingqing from Lin'an is paying a visit on her master's request."
"Bai Qingqing from Lin'an?"
The family retainer looked her up and down critically. She was a slim girl of average height. Her features were appealing, her skin fair, her eyes big, her nose prominent and her lips cute, she was quite pleasing to the eye.
With that being said, her clothes were just way too shabby, and the little cloth bag on her shoulder was even covered with quite a few patches.
People who despise the poor and curry favor with the rich are not uncommon since ancient times. The girl standing right in front of these family retainers was appealing to the eye, but she was obviously of humble origin just by the look of her outfit.
With that in mind, the family retainer lifted up his horn, "Young lady, are you playing dumb with us? The Prime Minister is the first-ranked official in the Great Yan Kingdom, only second to His Majesty, do you reckon he is someone to be visited by a nobody like you?"
That family retainer waved his hand at Qingqing, "Shoo, shoo, don't stay here be an eyesore."
Bai Qingqing, who was just being expelled like a fly, replied with a smile instead of anger, "Sir, was I not making it clear? You are speaking to Bai Qingqing from Lin'an, who's paying a visit on her master's request. That means before I made it here, my master and the Prime Minister had corresponded already, the Prime Minister is aware of my arrival, but you are taking such liberty here to throw me out without even informing him, aren't you worried that you won't hold your position any more once your doings to me is known?"
A little-known figure Bai Qingqing might be, her forceful words still resonated in everyone's ears.
Being scolded by a young girl, the family retainers felt they've lost face.
The family retainer in charge yelled with rage, "The Prime Minister is swamped with work, even the influential officials have to get in line to visit him, let alone a little girl like you."
Bai Qingqing sneered at him, "Are you implying a girl of humble origins like me is not good enough to pay the Prime Minister a visit?"
"You know yourself well after all."
"Correct me if I'm wrong, the Prime Minister himself is also of humble lineage, he was a penniless scholar before he made it to the political arena. Your utterance just now means you are looking down upon your own master----the Prime Minister?"
