What's wrong with me, a powerful minister, supporting a few female officials?

Chapter 15 The Heavenly Mother Cult

The third reward was surprisingly a member of the Imperial Guard!

For those who originally only hoped to become a government official and receive a government salary.

But he became a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!

The impact was considerable.

It's like you want to apply for a driver position at the city government, and they ask you if you'd like to be the secretary to the city tycoon!
The Great Wu Embroidered Uniform Guard is not the Ming Dynasty Embroidered Uniform Guard that had fallen into decline and was suppressed by the Eastern and Western Depots in history!

This is even more terrifying than the Ming Dynasty's Imperial Guards at their peak!
Directly under the Empress's leadership, the Emperor's protégés, and with the most important function of supervising civil and military officials, the Embroidered Uniform Guard was destined to be low in rank but powerful in authority!
Su Mo never dared to dream that he could become a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard one day!
Even if it's just the lowest-ranking sergeant!
Su Mo stared intently at the semi-transparent screen, subconsciously swallowing hard!

I'll max out Lin Moyin's favorability later.

Are you still worried about not getting a promotion?
A centurion of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, holding the rank of sixth grade, is two grades higher than a county magistrate who holds the seventh grade!
If I were to become a sixth-rank official, would the county magistrate personally pour me tea and water, and then respectfully call out: "Sir, please have some tea?"
But Su Mo soon realized something was wrong.

Why give such a generous reward for just a gold lock?
Is Jin Suo really that important to Lin Moyin?

Just as Su Mo was filled with doubt.

The black-clad guards who had entered the garrison earlier, carrying a golden lock, came out.

He looked Su Mo up and down for a while.

Then he said to Gao Xin, "Put away your knife!"

"Commander Lin said, let this man leave!"

As soon as these words came out.

Su Mo was immediately stunned.

Just let yourself go like that?
Wasn't the female commander at all surprised that she had obtained the golden lock and how she knew it belonged to her?

I struggled with myself for so long, racking my brains for a long time to come up with something that I couldn't use at all.
Fuck you!

Also, wasn't it supposed to be that he became a member of the Imperial Guard?

What about Lux toothpaste?
Do we have to wait for Lin Moyin to make a move?
Su Mo was filled with doubts.

Gao Xin, who was behind him, quickly sheathed his straight sword, moved to the front of Su Mo, cupped his hands in greeting, and said politely, "Brother, I'm so sorry for rudeness!"

"This is a strategically important location; we must be extremely careful!"

"Please come back!"

Su Mo could only look at the garrison mansion again, and then cupped his hands to Gao Xin and another strongman, saying, "It is my duty, brothers, and I understand."

"Farewell!"

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Watching Su's retreating figure, Gao Xin finally couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Who is this guy?"

"There really is a token from the centurion?"

Gao Dali shook his head with a wry smile: "I don't know about that."

"It's definitely not simple!"

He lowered his voice: "When Lord Baihu saw Jin Suo, he stood up from his chair!"

Gao Xin gasped in shock, his face filled with disbelief!

Since Commander Lin took office, he has never seen Commander Lin with a second expression on his face!

He has always been cold and aloof, remaining unmoved even if a mountain collapses before him!

Now he's actually standing up in such a daze?

I'm good!

Did I use too much force when I pressed down on that kid's knife?
Did you accidentally cut someone's skin?

Gao Xin broke out in a cold sweat!

……

Inside the garrison, Lin Moyin stared expressionlessly at the thick stack of case files from previous years.

Finally found.

Thirty years ago, in Nantiandao, Yongqing Prefecture, Handu County, at the Mountain God Temple, the case of the mummified corpse!

In addition to Du County, mummified corpses were also found in the Locust God Temple, City God Temple, and Dragon King Temple in Tai'an, Dongping, and Machuan counties of Yongqing Prefecture!
Lin Moyin took a deep breath.

It really is the Heavenly Mother Cult!

The history of the Heavenly Mother Cult is exactly the same as that of the Great Wu Dynasty.

More than fifty years ago, the Great Wu Dynasty was established, and the Heavenly Mother Sect emerged at the same time.

The Heavenly Mother Cult is incredibly mysterious and its whereabouts are difficult to trace. Even with the capabilities of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they could only find out that the Heavenly Mother Cult was related to the previous dynasty.

It is very likely that it was established by the remnants of the previous dynasty's royal family, Princess Danyang who cultivated immortality, and the Imperial Preceptor Jiulong Zhenren!
There are very few case files about the Tianmu Sect in the garrison.

Or rather, given Lin Moyin's level, this is all the information she can access.

Lin Moyin continued to flip through the scroll.

Upon seeing the following: "The following month, a locust plague struck four counties, quickly spreading to seventy-two counties across three prefectures, leaving thousands of miles of barren land, complete crop failure, cannibalism, and the death of over a million people!"

Lin Moyin's pretty face changed color instantly!
How similar the situations are!

Mummified corpses have appeared at the Yongping Mountain God Temple and the Changping Locust God Temple!

If it's similar to the temple mummification case from thirty years ago, then similar cases are very likely to occur in other counties, likely at City God Temples or Dragon King Temples!

Once the sacrificial ceremony at the four temples is completed.

The locust plague that swept across thousands of miles is very likely to recur!
Thousands of miles of white land!

Cannibalism!
More than a million people have died!
Lin Moyin's pretty face turned extremely serious!
He carefully went through the case file again.

After closing the case file, his gaze fell on the golden lock.

He slowly closed his eyes: "Someone come here!"

A petite and pretty woman immediately entered the case file room.

However, her pretty face remained cold and expressionless.

"Greetings, Lord Baihu!"

Lin Moyin said calmly, "That person left?"

The pretty woman nodded and said, "Let's go!"

Lin Moyin kept her eyes tightly closed and uttered a single word: "Investigate!"

The pretty woman was secretly startled!
Of course she knew the centurion's personality!

The shorter the word count, the more important the matter!

She quickly replied, "Yes, ma'am!"

"I resign from my humble position!"

After the woman left, a hint of suspicion finally appeared on Lin Moyin's face.

The image of the young man squatting on the platform of the Locust God Temple involuntarily came to mind.

The gold lock belonged to her deceased mother and she always carried it with her, never showing it to anyone.

So, who exactly is Su Mo?

How did they find out that they had lost their gold lock, and then find it and return it?

I searched under the persimmon tree for a long time, but found nothing.

Even though he knew the gold lock belonged to him.

But why send it back?
To please oneself?

or?

A demonstration???

However, Lin Moyin naturally wouldn't meet Su Mo directly.

Her special identity and responsibilities meant that she could not possibly contact Su Mo without knowing anything about him!
Especially under such circumstances, the other party suddenly sent over a gold lock!

It was hard not to make Lin Moyin think more.

maybe.

Su Mo is very likely related to the Heavenly Mother Sect!

……

Su Mo was naturally unaware that he had become Lin Moyin's prime suspect.

Full of doubts, he left the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters, pondering as he walked why Lin Moyin wouldn't even see him.

This is completely unreasonable.

But thinking about it is useless.

The most urgent task is to find someone to gather information.

To gather information, one must find someone in the government office.

Unfortunately, he had only been here for a hundred days, and he deliberately kept a low profile, looking rather silly, which earned him the nickname "Stupid Su." Naturally, there was no one he could trust.

Should we walk right into their trap?
Judging from the mission rewards, I can tell that I will definitely get through this ordeal.

But if you actually go to the yamen, you'll definitely be locked up in jail, and you might even suffer some physical pain.

Torture has always been the simplest, most brutal, and most effective method for government offices to obtain confessions.

Because most criminals are normal people.

Normal people are afraid of pain!

Without special training or immense willpower, it would be difficult to withstand the might of Miki.

Su Mo felt that she was perfectly normal.

So he was torn about whether or not to turn himself in!

Just when I was struggling with this decision.

Before I knew it, I had walked back to the crowded East Market.

Someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder: "Su Lengzi, are you trying to get yourself killed?!"

"Your people from the fast track are searching the whole city for you, and you still dare to stay in the city?"
