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

Chapter 42 The female commander arrives at the Su residence at night, scaring Su Mo to death!

Whether Lady Chen is foolish or naive.

Anyway, Su Mo felt that she had a flexible moral bottom line and was good material for being a clerk.

With proper training in the future, he will surely achieve great things.

I'll test her skills again when I have time, so I can entrust her with important tasks.

The female knight-errant claimed to be highly skilled in kung fu and swordsmanship, so her skills must be quite formidable.

……

Chen Qian and Su Mo chatted for a few more minutes before he hurriedly left, as if he had important business to attend to.

Qin Bier came again not long after.

Qin Rui originally wanted to come over and thank Su Mo.

However, after careful consideration, the uncle felt it was not advisable to meet Su Mo too early before the case was dropped.

Su Mo handed the written list of return gifts to Qin Bier.

The workshop owner and the head of workshop A are included.

Previously, Chen Qiandao said that he had to personally visit to return the gift.

However, Su Mo was already a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the situation was changing rapidly, so there was no need for him to personally visit.

That would scare people to death!
Su Mo was a homebody at heart and disliked socializing, so he just dumped everything on Qin Bier.

The young widow covered her mouth and smiled when she saw the note Su Mo handed her.

Su Mo was taken aback: "What are you laughing at?"

The young widow covered her mouth and remained silent, only waving the paper in front of Su Mo's eyes.

Seeing the messy, dog-paddle-like calligraphy above, Su Mo's face darkened.

How many people practice calligraphy in later generations!
They've all gone to play with the keyboard.

It's already good enough if you can write characters, let alone write traditional characters!
Seeing Su Mo's dark expression, the young widow couldn't help but burst out laughing.

However, it is also known that Su Mo, as a clerk, is quite remarkable for being able to recognize and write characters.

Regardless of whether it's well-written or not, it still surpasses 90% of people!

At that moment, the young widow asked Su Mo to bring her pen, ink, and paper.

I copied it again and also wrote out the list of return gifts.

Su Mo stared intently at the young widow who was bent over her desk, pursing her lips and writing diligently.

Unexpectedly, the young widow was not only literate, but also had beautiful and neat handwriting, demonstrating a remarkable level of calligraphy skill.

In ancient times, being knowledgeable and reasonable was a very high compliment for a person!

Because there are far too many illiterate people!

However, it's better for the young widow to be literate.

From now on, all matters related to household finances and accounting will be handled by her.

Those who are capable should do more! We can't let her be idle!

Su Mo watched silently for a long time.

The scene of a beautiful woman grinding ink and writing delicately is indeed breathtaking.

But Su Mo couldn't help but remind the young widow, "Be careful not to get your clothes dirty!"

Qin Bier was stunned. She looked down and saw two jade bowls on the table, with the edges of the papers pressed against them. Her pretty face instantly turned red!

"Hmph! Bad guy!"

She rolled her eyes at Su Mo and sat up straight.

However, I'm not used to this writing posture, and I always feel a bit tired in my neck and back!

……

Changping County, Jinyiwei Hundred-Household Office.

Lin Moyin frowned as she looked at the secret report that had been delivered.

"Have traces of Tianmu cult members been discovered in both Tieshan County and Anyang County?"

The female centurion looked at the secret report and asked casually.

The pretty woman, who stood respectfully with her head bowed before the desk, hummed in agreement: "Reporting to the centurion!"

"Several missing persons cases have recently occurred in Tieshan County and Anyang County."

"Our secret agents rushed to the two counties and joined forces with the county garrisons. They have confirmed that there are members of the Tianmu sect in both counties."

"And they mostly gather in remote city god temples in the mountains!"

"A man from Tieshan County, whose attire is exactly the same as that of the deacon of the Tianmu Sect recorded in the case file!"

"The garrison troops of the two counties have discovered that the Tianmu followers will be holding a sacrificial ceremony at the City God Temples of both counties tonight. The operation is scheduled for tonight to capture them in one fell swoop!"

After speaking, the pretty woman hesitated for a moment: "Commander, should we follow along?"

Taking down the followers of the Heavenly Mother and thwarting the cult's plans would be a great achievement!
Lin Moyin hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: "Just have someone keep an eye on things secretly!"

"Tieshan and Anyang are ultimately not under my jurisdiction."

He paused, then continued, "The Heavenly Mother Cult's deacons are all practitioners of the immortal path."

"Although Zhu Pengzu and Lai Hongyi are top-notch fighters, they may not be able to handle the situation in the two county garrisons!"

"Go to Tieshan County and act accordingly!"

The pretty young woman nodded: "Senior sister! I'll go to Tieshan County right away!"

Lin Moyin frowned slightly: "In the garrison, you must address each other by their official titles. Remember that in the future, so as not to give others something to talk about!"

The pretty woman nodded and replied, "This subordinate will be more careful next time!"

After saying that, he quickly left the public housing!

After the pretty woman left, Lin Moyin rubbed her temples vigorously and then looked at the secret report that had just been delivered.

Something just doesn't feel right!

If the Tianmu sect intends to summon a locust plague through sacrificial rituals, causing chaos in nearby prefectures.

Indeed, sacrificial ceremonies must be held successively at the temples of the Mountain God, the Locust God, the City God, the Earth God, and the Dragon King.

problem.

Given the Heavenly Mother Sect's consistent caution and secrecy, how could they easily reveal their true colors!

If so.

The Heavenly Mother Sect has been eradicated by the Great Wu a hundred times over!

In particular, the Nine Dragon Demons of the Heavenly Mother Sect are at the peak of divine travel, half a step into the realm of terrestrial immortals, and are good at "observing heavenly secrets and predicting fate".

They probably already predicted the court's reaction to a great extent!
Besides, did the Heavenly Mother Cult really plan something as simple as a locust plague after lying dormant for thirty years?
Lin Moyin couldn't help but look at the secret order sent back by the Commander-in-Chief's Office!
The secret order consisted of just four words: "Dispose of it as you see fit!"
Lin Moyin couldn't understand it.

Why was a major matter involving the Tianmu Sect left to the Hundred Household Office to handle on its own?

They didn't even send a deputy commander-in-chief as a special envoy!

Unfortunately, she was only a hundred households, and her knowledge of information was limited. No matter how intelligent she was, she could not see the whole picture!

Lin Moyin's head was getting more and more sore from thinking about it!

Suddenly, a face popped into my mind!
Su Mo delivered the golden lock!
She once suspected that Su Mo was a member of the Heavenly Mother Cult.

However, when I tried to find out about the Heavenly Mother Sect yesterday, the other party was taken aback and clearly did not know anything about it!
However, that guy always gave Lin Moyin an indescribable strange feeling.

Let's just take him into the garrison and monitor him to see who he really is!

Su Mo thought Lin Moyin was using him as a pawn, but he was delusional and thought too highly of himself!

Lin Moyin subconsciously took out the gold lock and rubbed it in her palm.

That guy seems to claim he has the ability to predict the future?
……

Su Zhai.

Su Mo has already settled Xue Yishu and Chen Nvxia.

They purchased brand-new cotton quilts and straw mats, and thoughtfully prepared two sets of scholar's robes for Xue Yishu.

As expected, it increased the county magistrate's daughter's favorability by three points.

The favorability rating has reached 8%!

Although we can't see Chen Nvxia's favorability rating.

However, his attitude towards Su Mo has improved significantly, and he even dares to joke about Su Mo.

However, Su Mo was quite annoyed by his constant talking to Qin Bier.

Xue Yishu thought she had successfully disguised herself as a man, so she didn't want to associate with Qin Bier and Chen Nvxia.

I don't know where he found the book, but he's been reading it quietly and intently.

All day long, neither the Wang family servants nor the yamen runners could find this place.

This definitely made Xue Yishu look at Su Mo in a different light.

She really couldn't understand why her mother, given her personality, wouldn't come looking for the Su residence.

Could it be that they didn't know they were hiding here?

It shouldn’t be!

The female knight-errant kept pestering Qin Bier, leaving Su Mo with no way to make a move.

Finally, night fell.

Qin Bier left.

Chen, feeling rather annoyed, and Xue Yishu each returned to their rooms to rest.

Before leaving, she deliberately brandished her big sword in front of Su Mo, which made Su Mo's face turn black with anger!
What does this mean?
Would I be that kind of person? Would I sneak into her room in the middle of the night?
Su Mo remained sullen until the hour of Hai (9-11 PM).

Finally, I heard two long and two short knocks coming from the side door.

Su Mo's spirits lifted instantly!
Qin Bier is indeed trustworthy; this is the secret code they agreed upon!

He quickly went out to open the door and saw the young widow standing outside with a blushing face, her head down, not daring to look directly at Su Mo!
If a woman is not married into the family, she is committing adultery!

The young widow found it somewhat difficult to accept.

Having no other choice but to ask for his help, the young widow could only submit to Su Mo's tyranny, letting him lead her by the hand and quietly into the master bedroom.

Even though she knew perfectly well that the former was just a reason for comforting herself!
In July, the weather can change in an instant.

A sudden gust of wind swept through the small Su residence!

Streaks of lightning, like sharp swords and spears, were incredibly dense, constantly piercing the sky and tearing apart the earth.

The sound echoed across the fields.

After a long time, the rain subsided, but soon a strong wind blew up again, and the rainstorm struck once more.

The rain poured down, turning the grass into a muddy mess.

The young widow in the house tried her best to persuade Su Mo. In the end, after the wind and rain had stopped, she almost wore herself out before she finally convinced Su Mo to give her cousin a spot as a helper!
Just then, a thunderclap suddenly struck the sky outside!
Su Mo suddenly noticed a slender figure appearing outside the room, like a ghost!
I go!

Xue Yishu? Chen Nvxia?
Do they sleepwalk?

Or perhaps it's a voyeuristic fetish?

Su Mo quickly pulled up the blanket to cover the young widow, put on his clothes, and opened the door to take a look.

Then I was dumbfounded!
Indeed, there was a woman standing quietly outside the window.

But she is neither the county magistrate's daughter nor Lady Chen.

Su Mo's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, and he stammered, "Lin... Commander Lin?"

Thank you so much, brother with the digital number, for the five coins! I'm so excited!
