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

Chapter 47 Who says yamen runners can't write lyrics?
Chen's great sword still has a certain intimidating power.

As the saying goes, "He who eats another's food is bound to do his bidding, and he who takes another's money is bound to do his bidding."

They have mastered the Yangtian Technique.

Su Mo wasn't so reluctant to give up the cooking skills she could easily learn at New Oriental.

He confidently patted his chest and promised to share everything he knew.

The female knight looked overjoyed.

Su Mo couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

My uncle was right.

This girl is really a bit naive; she got sold out and still helped the seller count the money!
The plan to reform the silly female warrior is a long and arduous one!
Had breakfast.

Su Mo then took the female knight and the county magistrate's daughter to inspect the East Market.

Thousands of tall buildings rise from the ground.

This is the first territory where he rose to power, and he cannot afford to be careless.

……

Su Mo was satisfied.

I went shopping with two beautiful girls who had great figures.

But the back courtyard of the county government office was already bustling with activity before dawn!
Wang's face was dark as she stared intently at Magistrate Xue, who was putting on his official robes!
After the maid helped Xue Shan put on his robe, he waved for her to leave.

Finally unable to contain himself any longer, he gritted his teeth and said, "Shu'er didn't come back all night!"

"Tell me honestly, where did you hide her!"

Xue Shan said irritably, "I already said it, it's not that I'm hiding her!"

"I don't know where she went!"

"Besides, what are you worried about? Shu'er has the jade sword talisman protecting her, who can hurt her!"

Wang snorted coldly: "If it wasn't you who hid it, then who else could it be?"

"Do you think I will believe you?"

"If you hadn't done it, how could you have slept soundly if your daughter hadn't come home all night?"

Xue Shan snorted heavily: "Didn't I already send people to look for it!"

"I have nothing more to say to you, I'm going to the yamen!"

Wang stood directly in the doorway, sneering, "Send someone to look for it?"

"Should we send someone to hide Shu'er even deeper?"

"What's wrong with Jun'er?"

"Before he was even thirty, he had already passed the imperial examination with the second-class honors, his name was on the golden list, and he was waiting for the court to appoint him to an official position!"

"Furthermore, they are related to Shu'er by marriage, which will strengthen their ties after the marriage, making the Xue and Yao families even closer..."

Xue Shan flicked his sleeve, interrupting her, and snorted, "When have I ever said anything bad about Jun'er!"

"Stop being so unreasonable!"

"Women and petty men are truly difficult to deal with!"

Wang laughed in anger: "Me, being unreasonable?"

"it is good!"

"Then let me ask you, who exactly is Su Mo?"

"Should I send someone over to arrest him and let you interrogate him yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Xue Shan's expression changed drastically, and he blurted out, "You dare!"

Wang looked at Xue Shan with a cold smile: "What wouldn't I dare to do!"

"I might as well tell you, I've already sent my servants over there, let's see where he can hide!"

Upon hearing this, Xue Shan's face turned deathly pale, and he trembled with rage, pointing at Wang Shi: "You...you..."

He stomped his foot suddenly: "You've ruined everything!"

He glared at Wang: "Do you know who he is!"

"Hurry up and call them back!"

When Madam Wang saw Xue Shan's strong reaction, she was startled and quickly asked, "Isn't he just a lowly yamen runner?"

Xue Shan took a deep breath and lowered his voice: "He's a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

Wang instinctively asked, "What about the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

"Does the Embroidered Uniform Guard think they can act with impunity?"

"Does the Embroidered Uniform Guard... have the right to abduct respectable women?"

Her voice trailed off, and finally she stammered, "What should we do now?"

"We can't let Shu'er keep following that... Imperial Guard, can we?"

Xue Shan said irritably, "What else can we do!"

"Call them back right now!"

"They really don't know the meaning of death! They even dared to go and take him by the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

He paused, then continued, "I have thoroughly investigated Su Mo. His character is acceptable, and he would not do anything excessive to Shu'er."

Wang snorted, "I don't care!"

"If word gets out, how will Shu'er face people in the future, and how will she find a good husband!"

"You must find Shu'er today!"

"If not..."

Xue Shan snorted angrily: "Otherwise what?"

Wang glared at him: "Otherwise, don't even think about going back to your room to sleep, and don't even think about staying in this side room!"

Xue Shan flicked his sleeve and said coldly, "Fine, I won't stay!"

"Do you think I'm really afraid of a shrew like you?"

"My officer...my officer..."

Magistrate Xue was incredibly defiant: "I'm going to sleep in my study. Let's see what you can do to me then!"

Madam Wang stared in disbelief as Magistrate Xue strode confidently out of the side room. Who gave him the audacity to call her a shrew?
Is that Su Mo, the Imperial Guard?
……

Su Mo was unaware of the unrest in Magistrate Xue's household and was enthusiastically leading the two women on a tour of his territory!

He even brought a pamphlet and inspected the brothels, taverns, and gambling dens that paid the most fees one by one!
As they walked, he gave Ms. Chen pointers on how to manage the East Market when she became a constable.

He was ambitious.

Although I had never studied management in my previous life.

But I've read quite a few online novels, especially those about time travel to ancient times.

The decision was made to change the situation in East City.

For example, establishing unified fee standards, improving the law enforcement image of yamen runners, eliminating illegal vendors and optimizing the trading environment, and severely cracking down on local thugs, bullies, and other market-dominating behaviors.

The rules are established.

The East Market was stable and prosperous, and merchants' businesses were booming, with fees collected increasing day by day.

His official career naturally progressed smoothly.

Magistrate Xue also had reason to promote himself to deputy head constable, didn't he?
Su Mo and Chen Nvxia discussed future reform plans for Dongshi.

Xue Yishu, like a curious child, found everything so new and interesting. She didn't even know what candied hawthorn was, and kept looking around, asking Su Mo all sorts of questions.

This caused Su Mo's reform ideas to be frequently interrupted.

However, the favorability rating increased very quickly.

It jumped several points at once.

That's close to 15 percentage points!
Considering the powerful figure behind him at the Divine Realm, boosting his favorability is essentially boosting the favorability of the Immortal Sorcerer.

Su Mo endured it!

After walking around for a while, Su Mo felt parched and her stomach started rumbling.

I underestimated the two girls' appetites, so I ate at least half less breakfast and couldn't take it anymore.

"That's all for now!"

"Let's find something to eat first, something to fill our stomachs. I know a steamed bun shop around here that's pretty good!"

Su Mo swallowed hard and said, "After we eat the steamed buns, we'll go to the dog market!"

Buying dogs that bite people has almost become an obsession!

Ms. Chen's eyes widened: "You really want to buy a dog?"

Su Mo rolled her eyes: "Nonsense!"

"How can I be worthy of my current position as a clerk in the yamen if I don't buy a few vicious dogs to guard the house!"

Su Mo paused, then clicked his tongue in admiration: "If only I could buy another eagle!"

"As the old man suddenly felt a surge of youthful exuberance, leading a yellow dog on the left and a falcon on the right, wearing a brocade hat and a sable coat, a thousand horsemen sweeping across the plains..."

I was just showing off a bit, but then I suddenly got stuck and forgot what was next.

He shut up in frustration.

He then planned to invite Miss Chen and the county magistrate's daughter to the steamed bun shop to satisfy their cravings.

But Xue Yishu stared at him with wide eyes, utterly shocked.

Su Mo was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously touched her cheek.

There doesn't seem to be anything dirty, right?
Seeing Su Mo suddenly stop talking, Xue Yishu asked urgently, "What's next?"

Su Mo felt confused: "What do you mean, 'below'?"

"You know that lame joke too?"

"That's all?"

Xue Yishu exclaimed anxiously, "How could there not be!"

"It's what you just recited: 'An old man, in a moment of youthful exuberance, leads a yellow dog on the left and a falcon on the right, wearing a brocade hat and sable fur, with a thousand horsemen sweeping across the plains!'"

"Keep reading!"

Su Mo blinked.

It's surprising that the county magistrate's daughter is also a little enthusiast of poetry.

Feeling a little uneasy under her intense gaze, Su Mo suddenly remembered a few things.

"Uh-huh……"

"To repay the city's loyalty to the governor, I personally shot a tiger, like Sun Quan. Even in my cups, my heart and courage remain undiminished. My temples are slightly frosted... my temples are slightly frosted..."

"Oh, I really can't remember!"

This poem, "Jiang Cheng Zi: Hunting Trip in Mizhou," was written by the renowned Su Shi.

But the most famous line is the first one: "An old man, in a moment of youthful exuberance, leads a yellow dog on the left and holds a falcon on the right."

Not many people can actually remember what comes next.

It's only because Su Mo had a good memory in his previous life that he remembered so much.

Xue Yishu trembled with excitement: "Beautiful words! Truly beautiful words!"

Her breathing quickened: "May I ask, Brother Su, who wrote this poem? Could you introduce me to him?"

Su Mo was a little unhappy.

"Why can someone else do it, but I can't write it?"

"I wrote this before, but I can't remember it now, is that not true?"

Xue Yishu chuckled: "Brother Su, please don't joke around."

"It's not that I look down on Brother Su, it's just that... it's just that Brother Su's status makes it hard for me to believe that this poem was written by Brother Su!"

Do you think you're a three-year-old?

The opening line clearly describes an old man's youthful exuberance!
This constable Su doesn't look like he's my age at all, does he?
But the more she said that, the more unhappy Su Mo became.

He was about to explain that he was using a sophisticated method of misplaced word writing, comparing himself to an old man or something.

The words never came out.

Suddenly, a commotion and sounds of smashing and looting came from the house.

Upon closer inspection, not far away, the steamed bun shop where I had eaten steamed buns last time was being vandalized by more than a dozen thugs!
The old man who ran the steamed bun shop was kicked to the ground.

The old man's pretty daughter, filled with grief and indignation, rushed forward and pushed away the thugs who were kicking and hitting the old man!
