Before, Xiao Chen had some thoughts of further revenge on Liu Rufeng, but now, after experiencing so many things, he seems to have no hatred for Liu Rufeng. On the contrary, he seems to still feel a little apologetic.
With a smile on his face, Xiao Chen walked up to Liu Rufeng and looked him up and down.
The serious look in his eyes made the other person look a little embarrassed.
"Master Ziyi, what are you looking at?" He wanted to move away, but was afraid that Xiao Chen would be angry, so Liu Rufeng had to stand there and asked awkwardly.
"Last time, the attack was a bit heavy. I want to see if Liu Qianhu's injuries have fully recovered." Xiao Chen laughed.
"Okay, I'm already fine." I had already greeted Xiao Chen's eighteenth generation of ancestors in my heart, but I still had to reply respectfully with a smile on my face.
"We didn't know each other before fighting last time, and now we are working together to guard the emperor. What a fate. Where does Liu Qianhu live now? Huailai Guard, or a camp near Jinyi Guard?" Xiao Chen asked.
Liu Rufeng cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the Commander, has sent us here to guard the outer perimeter of the earthen fort. How dare our subordinates live in Huailai Guard, which is ten miles away? We will live and camp nearby with the captain of Jinyi Guard."
"Well," Xiao Chen nodded, "Liu Qianhu lives with the captains, and he is very dedicated. Okay, you and I are busy with official duties. When we have free time, I will go and sit in your camp."
"My subordinates are always at your service, Master Ziyi." Liu Rufeng hurriedly bowed and bowed again.
"Okay, let's get busy." After saying that, Xiao Chen walked towards the gate of Tumu Fort.
Watching Xiao Chen and his party gradually walk away, Liu Rufeng turned back and prepared to continue patrolling.
"Liu Qianhu, do you know that Lord in Zi?" a man from behind asked in a low voice.
"Well, we are acquainted." Liu Rufeng said as he continued to walk forward.
Although the matter between him and Xiao Chen caused a stir in Jinyiwei, no one except the captains who went with him at that time knew that he was beaten.
On the contrary, in order to maintain the dignity of Jin Yiwei, the commander Xu Kaiying even "wisely" issued an internal warning to Liu Rufeng and concluded the matter as a fight between each other.
As for those school lieutenants who went together, Xu Kaiying also transferred them from Jinyiwei under various names.
After all, Jinyiwei and Dongchang are both agencies directly under the emperor. It is better to cover up such a shameless matter.
"The Master in Ziyi is now a popular person around the emperor. I heard that he is now the only Qianhu in Dongchang, a truly powerful person. He just said that he would go to the camp to sit down with Liu Qianhu when he is free.
Sit down. When the time comes, can Mr. Qianhu introduce his subordinates to you?" Following closely behind Liu Rufeng, the man from Baihu was trying to please him with a smile on his face.
After Xiao Chen was given purple clothes by the emperor, many people from the Imperial Guard began to inquire about Xiao Chen's details.
After learning that Xiao Chen was originally from Jinyiwei, and was transferred there after the establishment of the East Factory, everyone felt like they had been given a shot of blood, and their morale was at an all-time high.
It seems that Xiao Chen also saw a shortcut to his own rapid success.
Now, with their "idol" right in front of them, these hundreds of households are unwilling to give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
"What, you want to be transferred to Dongchang?" Liu Rufeng asked calmly.
As one of his subordinates, Liu Rufeng felt a little unhappy when he was so blatantly enthusiastic about others.
"No, no." The hundred households waved their hands hurriedly, "I have no such intention."
"Then why do you ask for an introduction to Master Ziyi?" Liu Rufeng said dissatisfied.
"The laws of our Ming Dynasty stipulate that all personnel in the guard are hereditary. I have a distant relative who wants to find a position in the army. I just want to get to know the Lord Ziyi and see if I can help my relative arrange it.
Just a moment." The hundred households said hurriedly.
"Now, Lord Ziyi's good days may not last long." Liu Rufeng walked at the front of the queue and replied lightly.
"Isn't it right? Isn't he in the spotlight now?" The hundred households were startled.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, just do your part."
"Yes." In response, the hundred households said nothing.
Looking at the Tumu Fort not far away, and then at the upright guards in royal robes standing outside, a faint smile flashed across Liu Rufeng's face.
Just before going out on patrol, he received a distinguished guest in his camp.
This guest is none other than Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui.
Zhu Gaosui has made it very clear about the current situation. Xiao Chen's purple clothes can no longer be worn for long.
Facing the emperor's sanctions, I'm afraid even my life may not be saved.
Even though the King of Han was expelled to Le'an Prefecture, it seemed as if he had been abandoned by the emperor. But after all, he was also the emperor's biological son. How could that right hand be broken by ordinary people if they wanted to?
Liu Rufeng understood the principle of breaking bones and connecting tendons. Therefore, when Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui found him and said that Xiao Chen's good days were coming to an end, Liu Rufeng believed it without a doubt.
However, there was one thing that Liu Rufeng still couldn't figure out. That was, since Xiao Chen was about to fall, Zhu Gaosui still asked him to settle the relationship with Xiao Chen. What was the purpose of this?
Although he and Xiao Chen are essentially in the same camp and both work for the emperor, they are two organizations after all. This time, it is also a special reason that makes Jin Yiwei and Dongchang work together.
After the "hunting" in March, each returned to its own unit and did not interfere with each other. It was completely okay to live with dignity. Why did King Zhao emphasize many times that he and Xiao Chen must have a good relationship?
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, Liu Rufeng simply stopped thinking about it.
I was originally just an ordinary captain of Jinyiwei, but to be able to climb to the position of a thousand households, I have exhausted all my strength.
Although he was not as good as those dignitaries of the imperial court, Liu Rufeng was content with the current situation.
What outcome Xiao Chen will have in the end has nothing to do with him.
Whether the Ming Dynasty will be inherited by King Zhao has nothing to do with him.
Just do your best, protect the emperor's safety, and try not to make mistakes in the areas you are responsible for. That's all.
After all, he is also a "self-made man", without any background, and he has to pretend not to see any undercurrents hidden in the court.
If you don't know how to get involved, a small wave, not to mention big winds and big waves, can break you to pieces.
Although Xiao Chen once beat himself up, Liu Rufeng also saw what he did later.
A person who does not think about himself but only thinks about the people. Although he is unable to save him, he can still do it by not speaking ill of him behind his back.
Holding the handle of Xiuchun Knife at her waist, Liu Rufeng took the lead and walked into the gray windy sand ahead.
