Chapter 90 Assassination
Master Zhao doesn't know what other people think, but his heart is actually shocked now.

This was the first time he heard that some people were unwilling to be an official because it was too tiring to be an official.

But this is not the key point. The key point is that Su Mo feels tired because his definition of an official is completely different from other officials in the Song Dynasty, and even different from officials in any country in this era.

Before he met Su Mo, those so-called upright officials in the imperial court who might last forever only said that as parents and officials, they must be the masters of the people and keep the other side safe. rule.

As for what Su Mo said, he takes care of the common people when they are hungry, poor, cold, even if the husband and wife quarrel. This kind of completely puts himself below the common people, and all he cares about is the basic necessities of the common people. No official has ever done it before, and no official has such a mind.

In the hearts of those officials, they always put themselves in a high position, and they are always superior to others.

Even if Su Mo said that he didn't want to be an official and was afraid of being tired, as long as he had this idea, he would have surpassed countless officials in this era.

Master Zhao even had a feeling that once Su Mo entered the officialdom, he would be the most outstanding official since the founding of the Song Dynasty, or even in history.

It's just that Su Mo's mind of resisting becoming an official may not be easy for him to become an official.

Mr. Zhao felt a little aggrieved that he would meet someone who wanted to give it to the official, but the other party didn't want it.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Su Mo angrily, and said: "Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and businessmen are the most humble people. You are a scholar, but you don't want to make progress, you don't want to be an official in the court, but you want to be a lowly businessman." , what do you want me to say about you?"

As he was talking, Mr. Zhao actually had a hint of hatred for iron.

Su Mo curled his lips indifferently, and said disdainfully in his heart, what kind of businessman is lowly, you put the peasants in the position next to the scholars, but the peasants live the most difficult life as before, and they can't even eat enough. What is the status? use?Businessmen are not rich in clothing and food, beautiful wives and beautiful concubines, your old Zhao family will brainwash people.

Although I thought so in my heart, the person sitting in front of me is probably a certain prince of the imperial court. He still dare not speak out his true thoughts, otherwise he would be given the crime of conspiracy and rebellion by the other party, and how many mouths would he have? I can't tell.

Therefore, Su Mo just said: "It's not that Xiaosheng doesn't want to be an official, it's just that he has little talent and learning, and can't take an official career. Otherwise, when the time comes, the people of the Song Dynasty will lose the people of the Song Dynasty, and the court's prestige will be lost for nothing. I am no longer an official."

What he said was precise and logical. Although Mr. Zhao still wanted to preach to Su Mo, he couldn't find the reason for the time being.

After all, it was the first time he met Su Mo, and there was still a lot of unfamiliarity between the two of them. Even Su Mo didn't know his identity, so it was inconvenient to say many things for the time being.

Mr. Zhao didn't get too entangled in this issue, but just changed the subject and said: "I heard that you invented a kind of soap, the effect is much stronger than the soap beans we commonly use, how about it, can you show it to me? If possible, I would also like to buy a few pieces and bring them to the capital."

Even the old man knew that he was the author of "Poppy", so it's not surprising that he knew about his invention of soap.

"Uh, this..."

Su Mo just wanted to agree, but a woman's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, the perfume you made has been delivered!"

Master Zhao didn't talk nonsense with Su Mo, and said lightly: "Well, bring it in!"

After finishing speaking, he smiled and said to Chai Zongxun: "I'm really curious about the perfume I bought for 500 taels of silver, Pavilion Master Liu, according to what you said before, if this thing is not worth 500 taels If it is two, I will ask you to return the goods."

Liu Yue hurriedly saluted and said, "Don't dare, Liu Yue will naturally keep her promise."

Although Master Zhao was joking, Liu Yue didn't dare to be careless at all.

At this time, the woman outside the door also opened the door and came in, holding a tray in her hand, and there was a delicate perfume bottle in the tray.

Su Mo glanced at the woman casually, only to realize that this woman was the female guard who was checking Guo Furong just outside the door.

However, considering the noble status of Master Zhao and Chai Zongxun, it is not surprising that it is impossible for strangers to approach them at will.

"Master, this is the perfume you photographed!"

Holding the tray, the woman walked slowly to Master Zhao's side, then knelt down on one knee.

Master Zhao nodded, then reached out to pick up the perfume bottle, and poured it out carefully.

But at this moment, the tray in the woman's hand suddenly slammed into the skinny old man Ah Fu behind Master Zhao, and then there was an extra dagger in her hand, and it stabbed directly at Master Zhao's chest.

"Brother be careful!"

"Master be careful!"

Su Mo was shocked by the sudden change, but he could only watch helplessly as the woman's back rushed towards Master Zhao.

Chai Zongxun and Ah Fu reacted faster than him.The moment the woman made a move, Chai Zongxun yelled, but he was old and an ordinary literati without any martial arts, so he could only sit in the seat with a face full of panic, as if he was too scared to move.

Surprised, Ah Fu smashed the tray that was thrown towards him with his palm, then let out a roar, and rushed towards Master Zhao with all his might.

His speed was extremely fast, but because of the influence of the tray, his movements were more or less hindered, and the woman's speed was too fast, he couldn't rush over to stop it!

Looking at the dagger stabbing at him, Mr. Zhao was extremely calm. He didn't even change his expression. He just sat calmly on his seat and looked at the woman who was rushing towards him.

"Die!"

The woman screamed, her face was ferocious, and she saw that the dagger was about to pierce Master Zhao's heart.

At this critical moment, a weak figure suddenly appeared in front of Master Zhao.

"laugh!"

There was the sound of the dagger piercing into the body, and strands of blood were also floating in the air, gorgeous and miserable!
"Liu Yue!"

It was only when Su Mo realized that he could see clearly that the weak figure standing in front of Mr. Zhao was actually Liu Yue who had been standing beside Su Mo. The master blocked the fatal blow.

Liu Yue's sudden appearance also made the female guard turn pale with fright, her sure-fire knife was actually blocked by this woman.

But at this moment, she couldn't help but hesitate, she immediately prepared to pull out the dagger that was inserted into Liu Yue's body, and stab Master Zhao again.

It's a pity that this perfect opportunity only comes once.

She missed it!
