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

Chapter 62 A jealous centurion is terrifying!
Lin Moyin used a trick, killing Si Guiming with a single sword strike, and then with a wave of her hand, she took the black rope.

Although it was cut into three pieces, with a little refining, it should be able to be restored to the second-grade level, worth more than two hundred taels of silver.

Such a harvest is not common.

Lin Moyin's pretty face showed a satisfied expression.

At the same time, the money bag on the corpse flew up out of thin air and landed in Lin Moyin's hands.

He opened the money pouch, glanced at it, and couldn't help but snort, "Poor wretch!"

However, this was exactly as Lin Moyin had predicted.

Most of the Taoist sorcerers are poor, including the female commander herself!

The world is short of cultivation resources. Besides seizing them through power and force, the main way to acquire them is by purchasing them with money.

For example, a bottle containing ten Rejuvenation Pills, which are useful for novice sorcerers, is worth ten taels of silver!
A first-grade Buddhist artifact costs around one hundred taels of silver.

Don't underestimate the Black Essence just because it's only a third-grade magic artifact. The amount of silver that Si Guiming invested in it is no less than a thousand taels!

Moreover, if the process fails, all your investment will be lost, and you'll have to start all over again!

The female officer then examined the body of the deceased subordinate.

There was nothing else to report.

However, he earned two or three hundred taels of silver from just one trip, which was quite a windfall.

Overall, the female officers were quite satisfied.

If I can come here three to five times a year, I'll have enough money to sustain my cultivation!

The Cao family's reaction was exactly what she had expected.

If it were Xue Shan, he would never have imagined that Cao Sanjiang would act so unpredictably!
It's not that he lacks intelligence; it's just that he's a low-ranking official with limited influence, so he has to consider all the pros and cons before acting and wouldn't easily resort to such extreme measures.

If Lin Moyin hadn't had a special identity, the same thing would have happened.

In fact.

For Cao Sanjiang, eliminating Su Mo directly was indeed the simplest and most effective way to solve the problem.

The only thing I missed.

They were the centurions of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and they had an incredibly special relationship with the lowly clerks and strongmen!
Not only did they protect Su Mo, but they also personally took action, waiting for Si Guiming to walk right into their trap!
Keep your spoils safe.

Lin Moyin, carrying Si Guiming's head, was about to leave.

He suddenly let out a heavy groan.

The deliberately suppressed, joyful sounds within the Su residence faintly reached my ears!

The female officer's pretty face darkened.

Her willow-leaf eyebrows furrowed as she remained motionless for a moment.

Then, with a flick of her wrist, a fist-sized pebble fell into her palm, which she then forcefully hurled towards the back hall of the Su residence!
There was a loud bang.

The suppressed sounds of pleasure abruptly ceased!

Only then did the female commander reveal a satisfied smile, and happily carried away Si Guiming's head.

A few moments later, several more figures appeared outside the Su residence.

In the blink of an eye, the scene was cleaned up spotless!

……

At the Cao residence, Cao Sanjiang, after groping his two concubines, found himself unable to perform sexually, so he dismissed them and went to bed early.

This is a habit he has always had.

When I was the Censor-in-Chief, I had to get up in the middle of the night to prepare for the morning court session; I couldn't afford not to go to bed early.

He didn't care about the affairs of the clerks at all.

When Uncle Fu takes action, there is never a chance of failure; this has always been the case, even when the opponent is a third or fourth-rank official in the imperial court!
Of course, it's best to use such methods as little as possible.

If this gets out, the consequences will be quite serious!
Even Jesus couldn't save him.

No official would willingly have their head ripped off in their sleep for no apparent reason!
Just as Cao Sanjiang was sleeping soundly, he dreamed that he had returned to the imperial court and was taking revenge on his political enemies.

Suddenly, I felt a cool sensation on my cheek, as if water droplets were dripping onto my face.

He opened his eyes.

His face was deathly pale, and a somewhat familiar head appeared before him.

We were almost face-to-face with him.

The cool water droplets I felt in my sleep were clearly the blood dripping from the severed neck!
At this point, Cao Sanjiang wasn't too afraid.

Because I'm not fully awake yet!
I only vaguely recognized that this head seemed to belong to the old servant, Uncle Fu.
Lin Moyin loosened her grip, letting De Si Guiming's head smash into Cao Sanjiang's face!
He then said coldly, "If anyone dares to touch a hair on Su Mo's head, the entire Cao family will be wiped out, not even a chicken or a dog will be spared."

After saying that, he drifted away.

Not long after, a heart-wrenching scream came from behind!

The extent of the tragedy is truly difficult to describe in words.

They were definitely so scared that they lost control of their bladder and bowels!
Lin Moyin sighed. If she were a commander, or even a deputy commander, she would never have spared Cao Sanjiang's life!
The consequences of a Jinyiwei commander killing a demoted censor were quite severe.

After all, many people in the imperial court were secretly keeping an eye on the Cao family!
Of course, if Cao Sanjiang is still oblivious to his fate, then that's a different story.

No one can die except Su Mo!
……

Su Mo was still so angry that her face turned pale when she woke up in the morning!

If I knew some bastard had smashed my doors and windows with stones in the middle of the night, I would definitely have that guy arrested and thrown into jail, and tortured a hundred times over!

damned!
That was the most crucial moment!

They replaced it with someone who has slightly weaker mental resilience, or someone who is inherently insecure about their own abilities.

I'm definitely going to spend the rest of my life with those little blue pills!
Such behavior is unbecoming of a human being!
The young widow was so frightened that she hastily finished helping Su Mo and then ran away in a panic!
of course.

Su Mo had no idea that someone had suffered ten times worse than him last night!
No one would be happy if someone smashed a bloody human head in their face while they were having a sweet dream in the middle of the night.

We just entered the inner hall.

Su Mo saw Xue Yishu holding a book and reading quietly.

However, upon seeing Su Mo, her serene and ladylike demeanor vanished without a trace, instantly transforming her into a little foodie: "Brother Su, why are you only getting up now? I've been waiting for you for ages!"

"Time to make breakfast!"

Su Mo...

It seems I need to seriously reconsider my marriage to her!
If the Xue family doesn't provide a dowry of 1,800 taels of silver, don't even think about marrying her!

He glared at Xue Yishu, annoyed: "Can't you do it yourself?"

Xue Yishu nodded very seriously: "No!"

"but……"

She drew out her voice, her eyes shining as she stared at Su Mo: "If Brother Su can complete those two incomplete chapters, I can learn to cook them for you!"

Su Mo decisively said, "I'll go buy groceries!"

The famous works he remembered were numerous, and all of them were gems.

Any one of them, even if it cannot be said to be passed down through the ages, will definitely shock the literary world of its time.

But it should definitely be used in critical moments.

How could I give in for a mere breakfast?

If word gets out, the future literary giant will be a... well, a master, I can't afford to lose face like that!

Besides, Su Mo seriously doubted whether the food Xue Yishu cooked was safe to eat!
After all, it wouldn't be right to only provide lodging and not food after receiving ten taels of silver from them.

This money is enough for an average family of ten to live on for half a year.

In the past, to earn this kind of money, you had to work yourself to the bone for two years.

Su Mo had no choice but to obediently go to the market to buy vegetables.

Eating is like doing things you love; you can't have the same thing every day. You need something new, something exciting... well, let's just say let's get rid of the exciting stuff.

Passing through the courtyard.

The white tiger and the pill immediately began barking wildly at him.

Two pieces of cured pork are gone.

Su Mo initially thought they had eaten her.

When I turned around, I found that the cured meat had been dragged to a hole in the corner of the wall.

It was covered with tiny bite marks.

It was definitely the work of a rat.

Su Mo picked up the cured meat, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to take it out and throw it away.

I can't bring myself to put it back in the pan and stir-fry it.

If I stay where I am, my third uncle, who's visiting, will see me and give me a good scolding.

My third uncle almost starved to death when he was a child, and my second older sister actually starved to death. He has always deeply abhorred people who waste food!
We arrived at the East Market.

Su Mo had just bought two pounds of pork and was about to go to the fish stall to see what good stuff they had.

Suddenly, he heard several strong laborers passing by behind him whispering among themselves.

"Do you know that the Cao family, more than fifty people, moved away overnight, leaving not even a dog behind!"

"Hasn't the Cao family only been here for half a year?"

"They also purchased many shops and land, and attracted a lot of followers from all walks of life. It's obvious they intended to stay here for a long time. Why did they suddenly move away!"

"Exactly! If you're going to move, you can't just leave in the middle of the night, can you?"

Upon hearing this, Su Mo was immediately stunned.

Did the Cao family move out overnight?
Lord Hyakuho is so helpful?

I thought that it would take a three-way alliance and various schemes to deal with the Cao family!
