Sima Lie under the hall has been watching Xue's performance quietly, and Sima Lie didn't pay attention to what Xue mentioned before, thinking that Xue would choose some errands at most, and those petty officials could not shake these court elders, so they were not enough to worry about.

And Sima was also silent on the sidelines, Sima Lie wondered if Xue intended to hand over these things to others to do, so as to clear up his relationship with Sima.

From the beginning, the ministers were wary and warning to her, the little emperor, and after the snow arranged two things, they found that the little emperor asked the courtiers everything, and suddenly felt that the little emperor was only half a catty, and the eyes of the ministers also became tentative and scrutiny, and they felt that she couldn't set off any storms.

Seeing the joy of the court, Xue couldn't help but be a little worried, because the sugar had already been eaten, and the next thing was to eat the knife.

Xue glanced at Sima Lie, then faced the ministers and said:

"I have one more thing to tell you about ...... adults."

The court instantly fell silent again, and the ministers cast puzzled glances at Xue.

"Yesterday, the Queen Mother returned to the palace and met the Assassin on the outskirts of the city...... And I almost got hit ...... arrow."

As soon as Xue said this, the first to stand up was Zu Di, who said angrily:

"I'm not in the capital, has the palace's defense become like this?!" Zu Di glared angrily at the ministers who were in charge of the forbidden army, and those ministers lowered their heads one after another, especially Lu Zhong.

"General Zu, don't be angry, fortunately, there are reinforcements coming to the rescue in time, I think it should be Lord Lu in the palace who manages the forbidden army properly, right?" Xue looked at Lu Zhong after speaking.

When Lu Zhong heard this, he raised his head tremblingly, and met Xue's praising smile, his expression was a little stiff, but at this time, from the other direction, Sima Lie half-squinted, his gaze was like an ice blade, as if he was about to pierce him, Lu Zhong's back was cold, his legs were weak, and he knelt down in the main hall.

"Let Your Majesty and the Queen Mother be frightened, the ministers deserve to die, please punish Your Majesty!"

"Lord Lu, what do you say, it is thanks to you that I and the Queen Mother can return to the palace smoothly, and we should be rewarded." Xue said with a smile, glancing at Sima Lie.

Lu Zhong knelt under the hall and didn't dare to move, and Xue continued:

"So, does Lord Lu have an idea of the origin of yesterday's batch of assassins?"

Lu Zhong's body shook, and his face was like earth when he leaned over and kowtowed, but fortunately no one saw it, Lu Zhong didn't get up for a long time, and there was silence in the court, and after a while, Lu Zhong got up, and the beads of sweat oozing from his forehead loomed, all showing the panic and uneasiness in his heart.

"Your Majesty...... I don't know ......," Lu Zhong replied.

When Zu Di heard that he had originally asked a Wenchen who had never been on the battlefield to be in charge of the guards in the palace and the security of the capital, he felt that it was inappropriate, but Lu Zhong now looked sincerely frightened, which made him more and more dissatisfied, and he arched his hand to Xue and said:

"Back to Your Majesty, Zu Di heard that because of the frequent wars in recent years, the people are struggling to make a living, and some people with bad conduct have begun to recruit troops and buy horses behind their backs, and start trading for people's bloody blades."

When Xue heard this, she thought about it, and then said, "So, it's because Dayu is sorry for them......"

The ministers were shocked, and when ordinary people heard this, most of them hated these assassins, and they wanted to kill them as soon as possible, but Xue actually blamed himself for it.

Zu Di bowed over and said to the snow:

"Your Majesty's words are serious, it was those despicable people who misbehaved."

Xue just felt it, although she understated it, but to the ministers it was like a fantasy, how could the emperor openly admit that he was wrong?!

Xue's move was a loss of royal dignity, and Xue had made a pact with Jiang Gong before the court, and if she said or acted inappropriately, she would cough as a reminder.

Jiang Gonggong's coughing voice made Xue realize his mistake just now, and hurriedly said:

"General Zu is reasonable, but I am speechless." Then she looked at Lu Zhong again and said to him:

"Then I'll leave this matter to Lord Lu and find out the matter."

Lu Zhong sincerely thanked him, Xue not only did not punish him, but also said that he would reward him, and assigned him a new affairs, which seemed to be to reuse him, but all this did not make Lu Zhong happy.

Lu Zhong had already surrendered to Sima Lie in private, if the little emperor was really stupid, it would be enough to think about the assassination so simply, but Lu Zhong vaguely felt that although the person in the high hall was still a newborn calf and a fledgling at the moment, there was always something impenetrable in the clear eyes on his innocent little face, and being able to enter the hall under Sima Lie's nose was enough to prove her potential.

Therefore, if the little emperor is not stupid, but does it intentionally, he is using a counter-plot to make him and Sima Lie turn against each other, and when the time comes, without the little emperor's action, Sima Lie will put him to death. Thinking of this, Lu Zhong only felt like a fish in his throat, and he was speechless for a while.

Lu Zhong got up with low eyebrows, and secretly glanced at Sima Lie when he retreated, it happened that the two looked at each other, Sima Lie glanced at each other, and there was a trace of evil in his eyes, Lu Zhong was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, quickened his pace, and hurriedly returned to the ministers.

"However, yesterday in addition to the assassin with a sword, there was also a killer with a bow and arrow, who almost shot me in the head......" The ministers were shocked when they heard this, Xue deliberately paused, and glanced at Sima Lie, Sima Lie's face was as usual, and there was a slight tremor at the corner of his mouth, Xue continued:

"And that arrow was picked up by Sima Cheng, who happened to be about to enter the palace, I was not good at dancing with guns and swords when I was a child, and I couldn't see anything, so I wanted you adults to show it for me."

Then, Xue bowed her head and said to Gonggong Jiang: "Gonggong Jiang, pass Sima Cheng's son to the palace." ”

"Passing Sima Cheng to the Palace"

Sima Cheng has been waiting outside the hall for a long time.

As soon as the words fell, I saw a long figure appear at the door of the hall. The sun has risen to the sky, the sun is brilliant, shining on Sima Cheng's body, the snow is a little trance, at this moment, she suddenly feels that she is so far away from Sima Cheng,.

As this long figure slowly walked towards the hall, Sima Cheng's outline gradually became clearer, and he didn't know when he changed into a Tsing Yi court dress, wearing eight crowns, with a solemn expression, and a look that was not easy to approach.

A hint of surprise flashed on Xue's face, it was the first time she had seen Sima Cheng look like this well-dressed and jade tree facing the wind.

Sima Cheng stood still, bowed his eyebrows, and knelt down to salute towards the snow.

"Sima Cheng, participate in His Highness!"

"Get up." Snow skimmed her sleeves.

Sima Cheng held the bow and arrow in his hand, and the adults next to him looked at the bow and arrow, Zu Di walked forward directly, Sima Cheng bowed to Zu Di, Zu Di nodded, and carefully looked at the arrow. Snow Says:

"Cheng Shizi, tell the adults about this arrow."
