Xue Hu was suddenly called by name. He was a little confused, but he understood that being called by Lu Jiao was definitely not a good thing. He walked to the middle and bowed to Sima Bo and Lu Jiao and said: "Go back to the Queen Mother, Wei Chen last night." He suddenly stopped talking. , God, he took pictures of the small room where Qiao Xi lived last night, which was heavily guarded. What should he say, but he had to answer. He thought for a while and then said: "Wei Chen was in Qianqing Palace last night to protect the emperor."

Lu Jiao sneered twice and said: "Xue Hu, you are so brave, you actually deceived me in front of so many people. You clearly sent heavy troops to guard a palace maid's room last night. Such a big thing happened in the palace, you You actually ignored the most important thing of the country to protect an insignificant palace maid. Fortunately, Lu Aiqing protected the national seal. If the national seal is lost and falls into the hands of thieves, can you bear this responsibility?" After she knew that Qing Xiangzi was coming to the palace yesterday, she asked Lu Hui to guard the place where the ancestral seal was placed in advance, just to ask Lu Hui to make great achievements.

Xue Hu immediately knelt on the ground and said: "Wei Chen knows his crime and is willing to bear any punishment." He thought to himself that Mo Xing had been hurt badly this time. If he had known that he would not listen to Mo Xing's words, he looked at Mo Xing from the corner of his eye. Looking at it, it turned out that Mo Xing looked like he had no intention of interceding for him at all, and now his heart fell from high to low.

"Yes, Xue Hu should be punished when he made a mistake. It's up to you, Queen Mother, how to punish Xue Hu." Sima Bo cleverly changed the topic to Lu Jiao. He was waiting for Lu Jiao to speak.

Lu Jiao was silent for a while and said: "Xue Hu is a general of the Five Tigers. He can't even do this thing well. How can he lead the army? If we let him lead the army, we don't know what trouble will happen. If he likes him, he will do it." Because of Yu Siguo's great contribution, he will be exempted from the death penalty, but he will not be able to escape the crime of living. His military power will be eliminated and he will be demoted to a commoner. Your Majesty, do you think this is a good way to deal with it?" Of course she knew that Sima Bo would not kill Xue Hu, since Sima Bo didn't know how to kill, so why should she? As long as Xue Hu didn't have military power in his hands, there was no difference between him and a dead person in her heart.

Sima Bo nodded and said: "The Queen Mother's treatment is really merciful. Since the Queen Mother has said so, then just do as the Queen Mother said." The coldness in his eyes flashed, and he seemed to agree with Lu Jiao's words. , but she was thinking in her heart that Lu Jiao thought of him too simply, how could his people be eliminated so easily.

After Xue Hu heard Sima Bo's words, he felt like falling apart and collapsed on the ground. Sima Bo's words made him feel cold from the inside out. Just when he felt chilled, Cao Xun immediately walked from the team to He said in the middle: "Your Majesty, although General Xue is guilty, it is not so serious as to be dismissed from office. Just look at the great contribution he has made to Yu Siguo, let him be guilty and meritorious!" Cao Xun and Xue Hu have been brothers for many years. , how could he not save him.

Sima Bo had a stern face and said seriously: "No one is allowed to plead for mercy in this matter. If anyone dares to plead for mercy, he will be punished with him." His tone was very firm, and he glanced at everyone present.

Mo Xing looked around and made sure that he was not interceding for Xue Hu. He stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I am not guilty of General Xue. General Xue is not only not guilty, but has also made great achievements. If General Xue did what he did last night, He made a big mistake, so Mr. Lu made a bigger mistake last night. If General Xue was dismissed from office, then Mr. Lu's action last night was to behead someone." He made the matter more and more serious. In fact, these were all Some small things could not be trivial, but the counselors could turn such small things into a huge event. The Queen Mother could use this matter to have Xue Hu dismissed from office, and he could use this matter to have Lu Hui beheaded.

As soon as Mo Xing said these words, all the officials present took a breath, and everyone's faces were full of different colors, especially Sima Xiao. He finally understood that all this was Mo Xing's mischief, but he didn't intend to

Speak for Lu Hui, because Mo Xing wants to take this opportunity to move to Lu Hui, and no one can save Lu Hui. Lu Hui is his uncle. If he gets involved, he may not necessarily suffer the same fate.

The best self-protection now is silence.

When Xue Hu heard Mo Xing's voice, the big stone in his heart was relieved. He knew that as long as Mo Xing spoke for him, he would be fine, because Mo Xing never did anything he was unsure of.

After hearing what Mo Xing said, Lu Jiao's whole face turned blue with anger. She said angrily: "Why did Prime Minister Mo say this? The Ai family would like to hear what Prime Minister Mo has to say." She did not expect that at this critical moment,

At that moment, Mo Xing actually came to cause trouble, but she was not worried. After all, Lu Hui made no mistake. No matter how cunning Mo Xing was, he could not threaten Lu Hui.

"Going back to the Queen Mother, Mr. Lu protected the Jade Seal of the Kingdom last night and established his great achievements. Everyone knows that the Jade Seal of the Kingdom was passed down from generation to generation in the Yusi Kingdom, and there is a big secret about the life and death of the Silk Kingdom in it.

, If it falls into the hands of thieves, the consequences will be disastrous. Since the thieves came to take away the most important things of the emperor last night, then we, the ministers, should protect the most important things of the emperor and the most important things of Yusi Kingdom. I

I want to ask everyone a question, what is most important in Yusi Kingdom?" He turned back to look at the ministers behind him, and then looked at Lu Jiao behind the bead curtain.

While everyone was whispering, Mo Xing's voice sounded again, "In the entire Yusi Kingdom, nothing is more important than the Emperor. I would like to ask Mr. Lu, when a crisis comes, who is the first person you think of?

What you protect is the national seal. Does it matter that the emperor does not have the national seal in your heart? Or does it mean that there is no emperor in your heart at all?" He emphasized the key points in every sentence, and every word was like a sharp knife, approaching Lu Hui.

Lu Hui was speechless by Mo Xing's words. He immediately knelt on the ground, and the nervous sweat dripped down from his head. He felt that something bad would happen today, and now it really happened.

When Mo Xing saw Lu Hui kneeling down, he took two steps forward, faced Lu Jiao and said, "The news we got is that General Xue was guarding the Qiankun Palace last night to protect the emperor's safety. Later, because of the emperor,

After fighting with the thief, General Xue followed the emperor all the way to the backyard of Qianqing Palace and caught the thief. I think everyone knows that the thief last night was the world-famous Qingxiangzi. Is Qingxiangzi an ordinary person? Qingye belongs to one person.

Heirs, both civil and military officials are not inferior to you and me here, and Qingxiangzi is a famous flower-picking thief. If any maid or empress in the palace of Yusi Kingdom is stolen by Qingxiangzi, then our Yusi Kingdom

Where is the face, and when this thief who threatened the emperor's safety and threatened the face of Yusi Kingdom came to the palace, Lord Lu did not take the emperor's safety seriously at all, and did not put the dignity of Yusi Kingdom first.

"You are the one who protects the legendary national seal that conquers the world." He pointed at Lu Hui, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, and in his words he meant that Lu Hui had the intention to usurp the throne.

Put people to death.

He then bowed to Sima Bo and said: "Your Majesty, Lu Hui is disloyal to the Emperor and has rebellious intentions. I suggest that Lu Hui be beheaded in public to see who dares to have second thoughts towards the Emperor and the Silk Kingdom in the future.

"He looked like he would not give up until Lu Hui was put to death, which made all the ministers present panic. Knowing that there are many people here who are facing Sima Bo's disloyalty, they all began to worry. Mo

The next one to deal with is one of them.

"Your Majesty, I am wronged, I am wronged! I have absolutely no evil intentions at all! I am loyal to the Emperor, and the Emperor is very aware of it!" Lu Hui shouted that he was wronged. He had never thought about such a trivial matter.

It turned out to be a crime of treason. Only now did he realize the terrible thing about Sima Bo. On the surface, he was calm and calm, but once you showed any signs of weakness, Sima Bo would use this to get rid of you.

At this moment, no one dared to come out to plead for Lu Hui, because they were all afraid of implicating themselves in it. It was a charge of treason. In a serious case, the whole family would be executed. Everyone would be in danger, let alone plead for him.

"Unjust, let me ask you, then why did you ignore the emperor's safety and go to guard the national seal? What was the order the emperor gave you last night? The emperor asked you to protect the most important things in the palace, why is the national seal more important in your heart?

Your Majesty is more important, tell me if someone has instructed you to reveal the mastermind behind you, maybe you can make up for it and save your life." Mo Xing grabbed him and wanted to kill all his followers.

Lu Hui also understood that Mo Xing would not let him go so easily, but even if he died, he would not say that it was Lu Jiao who asked him to guard the jade seal. Of course it was not just a guardian. If a thief came to steal the jade seal, he would

The jade seal was taken away and then passed on to the thief, but who knew that Qingxiangzi was not here to steal the jade seal. He could not involve the Queen Mother. "I am loyal to the emperor and have no partisans. I went to protect the national seal entirely out of love for him."

The Emperor clearly sees your loyalty!"

Sima Bo looked embarrassed. He was silent for a while and then said: "What is going on? What is the mastermind behind you? I don't want to investigate anymore. I believe those who are disloyal to the Silk Country.

I have also seen it, and I hope they can abandon the darkness and turn to the light in time. I will not care about their past. If there are some people who are still stubborn, don't blame me for being rude. As for you, you are the brother of the Queen Mother and the relative of Prince Xiao.

"Uncle, for the sake of the Queen Mother and King Xiao, I will spare your life, remove all your positions, and let Xue Hu and Cao Xun take over." He had just ascended the throne not long ago, and he didn't want to kill anyone yet. Of course,

One purpose is to let those who have second thoughts about him know that he is not a tyrant who kills innocent people indiscriminately, and he wants to change his image in their hearts.

For Lu Hui, he was really surprised that Sima Bo did not kill him. He immediately kowtowed to Sima Bo and said, "The common people thank you for your kindness."

Lu Jiao's face turned pale with anger, and she stared at Mo Xing with a pair of black eyes resentfully. Mo Xing betrayed and rebelled one by one, and in the end, a person behind the scenes was added, so that she did not dare to plead for Lu Hui. She felt

There was a dull pain in the heart, and then he gradually lost consciousness, "The Queen Mother is here! The Queen Mother has fainted," the maid's exclamation came from behind the bead curtain, and Sima Bo and Sima Xiao rushed in immediately.
