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

Chapter 50 The old man who cultivates immortality and the heroine are captured!
Upon hearing Luo Lie's words, the faces of the constables and servants behind him instantly turned cold.
They all raised their long swords, iron rulers, and chains, ready to seize the man at Luo Lie's command!
Although the members of the Five Peaks Gang had previously treated them like brothers and had given them many favors.
But when it really matters, you can naturally tell who the real powerhouse is!
Do you expect the clerk to be loyal to you?
What a joke!
Luo Lie's sudden change in attitude caught Su Mo somewhat off guard.
They thought that after Luo Lie took the money, he would let the people go, or even arrest the shopkeeper and his daughter and take them back to the yamen jail.
Su Mo was considering whether or not to step in.
As a result, Luo Lie actually fought head-on with the guys from the Five Peaks Gang, as if they had a deep-seated grudge!
Jia Kangyi was also surprised that Luo Lie showed no respect whatsoever. His face darkened, and he stared intently at Luo Lie, saying in a sinister voice, "Officer Luo!"
Have you thought this through?
"Fine, you won't give me face, but are you going to refuse to give face to Chief Cao as well?"
Upon hearing the words "Master Cao," Luo Lie's old face couldn't help but show a hint of apprehension.
Jia Kangyi was merely the third leader of the Five Peaks Gang.
There are two even more ruthless characters above them.
Especially the gang leader Cao Yucheng, although he rarely shows his face, he is extremely ruthless and kills people like flies, with probably no less than a hundred lives on his hands!
However, he was quite cautious in his actions, and he mostly killed people from all walks of life in the martial arts world.
The authorities couldn't catch him red-handed.
But Luo Lie still gave a sinister sneer: "What is Cao Yucheng anyway!"
"Relying on a few immortal techniques, he becomes arrogant and lawless!"
"Does Mo Zhen really think no one in the government can deal with him!"
"If they are caught by this constable, they will be apprehended!"
Jia Kangyi's face turned ashen, and he couldn't utter a single word!
Luo Lie was just a minor official and constable!
His subordinates aren't particularly tough either; they're at best second- or third-rate figures!
Jia Kangyi was confident that he could take his life with a single strike of his iron-clad sword!
But behind Luo Lie stood the Changping County Government, and even the entire Great Wu Dynasty!
Don't be fooled by the fact that the infighting among the clerks is severe.
Once an outsider touches the clerks' sore spot, for example, by killing Luo Lie, the clerks will absolutely join forces without hesitation to kill the person!
This is the foundation upon which clerks hold power at the bottom of the government and rely for their livelihood.
Anyone who tries to shake this foundation will become an enemy to the death!
Jia Kangyi could only watch helplessly as the servants stepped forward, ignoring the injuries of the Five Peaks Gang members, and roughly tied them up with ropes!
See here.
Su Mo then prepared to leave.
He didn't know why Luo Lie would choose to confront the Five Peaks Gang head-on; the Five Peaks Gang must have offended him badly.
But if it doesn't concern me, there's no need to get involved.
The shop owner and his daughter are pitiful.
Unfortunately, reality is just that cruel!
They prey on the people, and the people are the prey! If you are an ordinary citizen, you should be prepared to be the prey!
This is also why Su Mo wanted to become an official, and a high-ranking one.
Only in this way can we firmly grasp our own destiny!
There are many pitiful people in the world, and injustices are everywhere.
If you take care of everyone, you'll never be able to do anything else in the future!
Just as Su Mo was about to greet Xue Yishu and turn to leave, she suddenly felt a light tap on her lower back.
Su Mo turned around and looked.
Suddenly speechless.
Having just finished her chivalrous act, the chivalrous woman Chen sneaked back!
She changed into a simple, coarse dress, and smeared her face with mud and ash. It was hard for anyone who didn't know her well to recognize her as the female knight from before.
She was currently holding a large sword hidden in her skirt and stabbing Su Mo.
When Xue Yishu met Chen, he also recovered from his shock at the incomplete poem by Li Bai.
With some curiosity, she lowered her voice and asked, "Why are you back?"
"Aren't you afraid of being arrested by the authorities?"
Women who are usually confined to their chambers, especially rebellious girls like Xue Yishu who dared to climb over walls to escape their arranged marriages, usually greatly admire the free-spirited and chivalrous female warriors.
In Xue Yishu's eyes, the consequences of beating and killing local thugs were not worth mentioning.
It wasn't that I was really afraid that Ms. Chen would be taken away by the yamen runners; I was just asking out of curiosity.
In her opinion.
Even if Lady Chen is arrested by the authorities, as long as she explains the situation to her father, the always fair and just magistrate will naturally release Chen Qianyu immediately. Hearing Xue Yishu's question, Lady Chen rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll get arrested!"
She paused, then frowned, her face full of confusion: "Strange!"
"The constables are actually going to arrest members of the Five Peaks Gang?"
"Are there really good people among the yamen runners?"
Su Mo coughed twice: "Miss Chen, next time you speak, please consider the feelings of your audience!"
Chen, the female knight, snorted and refused to speak to Su Mo.
She simply raised her chin haughtily, like a proud little hen!
Su Mo didn't argue with Miss Chen: "Let's go!"
"Let's go back first!"
This situation in Dongshi is quite detrimental to his smooth takeover of Dongshi.
I still need to consult my experienced uncle.
The result came at this moment.
A detached voice rang out: "Officer Luo! Hold your arrest!"
Su Mo was stunned.
Someone is here again?
Is this a soap opera? Or a monster-hunting game where you defeat the smaller monsters only to be attacked by the larger ones?
He couldn't help but look in the direction of the sound.
Then a thin old man, around fifty or sixty years old, with white hair and beard, dressed as a butler, slowly walked out from the crowd!
Su Mo's eyes narrowed subconsciously, a chill running through her.
Despite the fact that the other party was dressed as a butler or servant, he felt extremely dangerous!
Luo Lie also squinted, staring coldly at the old man.
"Who goes there, daring to obstruct the government's investigation?"
The old man shook his head: "We are just servants from the Cao family, passing by by chance. We certainly wouldn't dare to obstruct the government's investigation!"
"However, having followed the master for many years, I know a little about the laws of the Great Martial Arts."
He paused, then said slowly, "We have a question."
"The members of the Wufeng Gang are suspected of assault and must be taken back to the yamen for punishment."
"Shouldn't the woman who injured someone also be apprehended?"
Luo Lie's expression changed drastically when he heard the old man identify himself as a servant of the Cao family!
He then took a deep breath and said slowly, "We will arrest the woman who injured you and bring her to justice. You don't need to trouble yourself!"
The old man suddenly looked in Su Mo's direction, then sighed, "Since that's the case..."
"That's it!"
"Let's mind our own business this time."
As he spoke, he raised his hand.
A black rope, as eerily as a black snake, flew out from the sleeve and sped toward Chen, the female knight, behind Su Mo!
Su Mo's expression changed drastically!
This old fellow is actually a Taoist sorcerer!
But before Su Mo could make a move, Chen, the female knight, reacted even faster.
He darted forward, shielding Su Mo behind him, and with a whoosh, drew his sword and slashed at the black rope like lightning.
The black rope, like a lively snake, flicked the greatsword away with a single bend and stretch, without causing any damage!
Ms. Chen had no time to react!
He was already wrapped several times in the black rope and couldn't move!
The old man dressed as a butler gently pulled on the black rope, and Chen, the heroine, was uncontrollably lifted into the air and then fell into his hands!
He lightly patted Chen Qianyu's back with his palm.
Chen Qianyu then collapsed, as if all her strength had left her.
The old man then put the black rope back into his sleeve, pushed Chen Qianyu toward Luo Lie, and said expressionlessly, "We have captured the woman who injured someone."
"Captain Luo took him back to the yamen and interrogated him thoroughly to find out where this thug came from, who was so lawless and disregarded the laws of the martial arts world!"
He paused, then said coldly, "We will report back to the master and keep a close eye on this case to ensure the perpetrators do not escape justice!"
As expected, I got sodomized, it hurts so much! Brothers, do you have any monthly votes to help this guy preserve his integrity and turn the tables! I'm begging you, my fellow Daniel Wu and Li Yifei!
