Chapter 236 Chill
After arranging the women and children of Prince Qin's mansion, Shi Huaishan went to the palace again to meet Luo Chuchu.

This time, he was not blocked from entering the palace, and he arrived at Qifeng Palace under the guidance of the maid.

The maid had already told Luo Chuchu that Shi Huaishan had asked for an interview, and Luo Chuchu asked her to bring Shi Huaishan in directly.

"...Your Majesty, that's what happened." Shi Huaishan took out a brocade pouch with great care, took out the token from it, offered it with both hands, and returned it to Luo Chuchu.

"Thank you for your hard work." Luo Chuchu took the token, a little absent-minded, and asked, "Huai Shan, what reward do you want?"

Shi Huaishan leaned over and said: "Serving His Majesty, I don't need rewards."

Luo Chuchu pressed his temples and said: "It is impossible to do things without rewards, and there must be rewards for meritorious service."

Shi Huaishan thought for a while, and said: "Then the humble minister will ask for some money."

Knowing that he couldn't bear to embarrass himself, to be honest, Luo Chuchu couldn't think of a better reward for Shi Huaishan.

Shi Huaishan was already among the candidates for a certain official position, and he should be the final candidate without accident, so it would not be appropriate for Luo Chuchu to intervene at this time.And other rewards in kind are too eye-catching in the turbulent situation, and I am afraid it is a disaster rather than a blessing.

Luo Chuchu took out a bank note, took a look at it, and said, "This is 5000 taels of silver. For the time being, I will find a way to compensate you when Beijing is settled down."

Shi Huaishan took it, and when he touched Luo Chuchu's cool fingertips, his heart surged.

He knelt in front of Luo Chuchu, and said: "If Your Majesty insists on rewarding this humble minister, then let this humble minister see His Majesty a few more times."

"..." Luo Chuchu felt even more dizzy, one Yan Wenmao was not enough, now Shi Huaishan?

Could it be that she committed Peach Blossom Evil this year?

Seeing that Huaishan was still kneeling on the ground, Luo Chuchu had no choice but to agree: "Okay, you can get up first. When you are qualified to go to court, you will be able to see me every day."

He didn't mean it that way.

Shi Huaishan got up and stared at Luo Chuchu, as if he wanted to tell her a thousand words.

In the end, he moved his lips and said, "I hope Your Majesty will take care of your health, and I will take my leave."

"Wait, you take this, I forgot to give it to you last time." Luo Chuchu thought of something, and took out the token from the small drawer of the cabinet.

Shi Huaishan took it, and found that the token made of gold and iron was slightly bent, as if it was caused by someone squeezing it tightly.

After thinking about it for a while, I want to understand who caused it.

Shi Huaishan lowered his head, a cold light flashed across his gentle eyes.

"Your Majesty, power is in the hands of others, after all, it is better to be at ease in your own hands."

Hearing what he said suddenly, Luo Chuchu was a little confused, so he nodded.

"Your Majesty must have taken this into consideration before allowing humble ministers to enter the court and gather a group of forces loyal to His Majesty." Shi Huaishan continued, "The number of official positions does not change much. If there are more others, His Majesty will be able to control less. gone."

Luo Chuchu seemed to understand what he wanted to say, and asked, "Huai Shan, what do you mean?"

"Now Yan Wenmao controls most of the officials in the Luo Kingdom. In the words of the ancient sages, it is the eunuch's monopoly. This is very detrimental to His Majesty's rule."

Luo Chuchu was stunned by Shi Huaishan's words.

"But Yan Wenmao treats me..."

Shi Huaishan looked directly at Luo Chuchu, and said: "Master Yan is devoted to His Majesty, but people's hearts are separated from the belly, and the power is in Lord Yan's hands. If one day he has a different heart, how should His Majesty deal with it?"

Outside the door, the hand that was about to knock was put down.

Yan Wenmao stood expressionlessly at the door, listening to the conversation between the two in the room.

From the moment Shi Huaishan entered the palace, the news was passed to Yan Wenmao.

Luo Chuchu's reaction that day made him sad, and Yan Wenmao hesitated for a long time, not daring to see her again.

When Huaishan entered the palace, he didn't know what he would do to Luo Chuchu, which made Yan Wenmao unbearable.After thinking about it, she put down her face and rushed to Qifeng Palace, wanting Luo Chuchu to choose again.

Unexpectedly, I heard such words as soon as I came here.

"If he has a different heart." Luo Chuchu bit his lip, "I should also save my life."

Even as Shi Huaishan said, gathering power will help govern Luo, but now she is not capable of managing so many people, and her time to learn how to govern the country is still too short.

Shi Huaishan continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, don't miss this opportunity. Now that the news of Yan Wenmao's indiscriminate killing has spread widely in Beijing, it is time to take actions to reconcile the hearts of the people."

Seeing that Luo Chuchu didn't speak, Shi Huaishan said vigorously: "We just need to send people to continue to publicize Yan Wenmao's actions, and unite with other ministers who are subject to Yan Wenmao's inextricability. It's not like there is no resistance. Even if he can't force him to give up all his power Spitting it out can also seriously hurt his vitality."

"If your majesty is worried about Yan Wenmao's revenge after the attack, then he will hand over the full power to the humble minister. If you don't touch your majesty's hands, he will not be able to rely on your majesty no matter what."

Hearing this, Yan Wenmao showed a mocking smile.

It turned out that Luo Chuchu had always regarded him as an enemy to be guarded against, but he had his heart tied to her and believed in her.

Not wanting to hear from Luo Chuchu that he was about to deal with him, Yan Wenmao turned and left.

Even wearing mink fur and brocade clothes, he couldn't stop the chill in his heart.

I don't know that Yan Wenmao is just outside the door, just in time to hear Shi Huaishan's plan, Luo Chuchu showed a embarrassed look, and said carefully:
"Huai Shan, I know you have good intentions, but it really shouldn't be like this..."

Shi Huaishan held Luo Chuchu's hand and said: "Your Majesty is worried about Yan Wenmao's revenge? I am willing to find a killer and wait for the opportunity to act. Even if it fails once, there will always be times when he will not defend..."

"Huaishan!" Luo Chuchu interrupted him.

The hand was still held by him, feeling the extraordinary heat in Shi Huaishan's palm, he should be very excited at this moment.

Luo Chuchu gently pulled out his hand, and said: "I don't need you to be like this. Yan Wenmao has his own difficulties, and Qin Wangfu is not completely innocent. Although it is too much to kill the branch men, but..."

She sighed, "But from the beginning to the end, he never thought of attacking me. I shouldn't treat him like this."

Jealousy gnawed at Shi Huaishan's bone marrow, and his desire to kill Yan Wenmao became even stronger.

In his opinion, the reason why Yan Wenmao showed mercy to Luo Chuchu was because he coveted Luo Chuchu on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was because Luo Chuchu was the empress after all, and he didn't have the sincerity of his feelings for Luo Chuchu.

Shi Huaishan firmly believes that Yan Wenmao and Wen Renyin are the same kind of people, their desire for power is absolutely more than anything else, and if they keep it, it can only become a cancer in the Luo Kingdom, which must be cut off mercilessly is the best choice .

Emotionally speaking... Shi Huaishan is very jealous of Yan Wenmao, he can always be by Luo Chuchu's side, but he will be blocked when he asks for a meeting.

Luo Chuchu seemed to be deceived by Yan Wenmao's appearance, so he couldn't make a move.

He made up his mind that since this was the case, he could only act in secret.
