Chapter 328 Shabby Willows Like the Wind

The bathroom is not big, at most half the size of the royal dining room.

The bedding that the emperor changed was placed on a platform made of solid wood.

Even if it needs to be washed again, the bedding is still neatly stacked.

Xiao Chen reached out, opened the neatly stacked mattresses, and shook them gently.

A dusty powder floated up, and after a while, a thin layer fell on the platform.

Putting the mattress aside and looking at the white powder on the platform, Xiao Chen had a solemn look in his eyes.

This Zhu Gaosui really has a big plan.

After collecting all the powder together, Xiao Chen put his nose up and sniffed it several times.

There is no peculiar smell.

"What on earth is this?" Xiao Chen was puzzled.

Obviously, Zhu Gaosui took the opportunity to pick up the emperor and scattered the powder on the dragon bed.

If these eunuchs had been more careless in cleaning up, they would never have discovered these things.

Without knowing the function of these powders, this situation could not be reported to the emperor.

Once this situation was reported to the emperor, the emperor asked what it was, how could he explain it?

Is it a drug? Is it a poison? Or is it just a random name?

Will not work!

Xiao Chen shook his head gently.

The eunuch behind him saw Xiao Chen's strange movements and couldn't help but ask: "Is there something wrong with the dust?"

"No, you should be more careful when cleaning the dragon bed in the future. The emperor will not be able to rest well if the bedding is mixed with dust." After saying that, Xiao Chen collected the powder together, wrapped it up with the cloth handkerchief in his arms, and put it away.

In arms.

"Don't worry, sir, I will make sure the emperor's bed is clean." The eunuch said hurriedly.

"Well, get busy." Xiao Chen turned around and walked out.

What exactly are these medicinal powders? You have to find a living creature to test them. However, in the entire earthen fort, apart from people, the living creatures are precious military horses.

It was impossible for Xiao Chen to test the effect of the powder on a living person, so it was a bit distressing for military horses to use it.

When I was worried, I suddenly remembered that when I was patrolling outside a few days ago, I seemed to see a dog scurrying back and forth near the Jinyiwei camp.

That day, I also had a polite chat with Liu Rufeng, the member of the Jinyi Guard Qianhu, and said that I could go to his place to sit there if I had the chance.

Just in time, he brought his dog over to try out the effect of this white powder.

Thinking of this, Xiao Chen showed a mischievous smile on his face and walked out of the hall, preparing to walk towards the Jinyiwei camp outside the Tumu Fort.

As soon as his right foot stepped out of the threshold of the main hall, Xiao Chen suddenly remembered that there was this kind of white powder in the incense burner in the side hall.

He hurriedly stopped, turned around, and looked at the old eunuch who was looking at him with a smile on his face at the door of the hall.

"I just went to the side hall to take a look. There was a lot of ashes in the sandalwood stove. Go clean it and replace it with a new stick of sandalwood." Xiao Chen said.

"Ashes? Clean them all? My lord, you mean to clean the inside of the incense burner completely." The old eunuch asked hurriedly.

Originally, the matter of cleaning the incense burner in the side hall was not his responsibility. But now that Lord Ziyi said so, he had to clean it anyway.

However, since you have to do something, you have to do it to satisfy Master Ziyi, and then it will be considered complete.

"Well, clean it thoroughly. No, it's best to even replace the incense burner." Xiao Chen said.

"Okay, I'll ask someone to stay here for a while before changing the incense burner." As the old eunuch said, he was about to leave for the eunuch's station in the back hall.

"Don't bother me. I'll stand here for now while you go change the incense burner." Xiao Chen stood directly where the old eunuch was standing just now.

"This is inappropriate. How can I ask you to keep watch for me?" The old eunuch looked embarrassed and said in a low voice.

"It's still early for the emperor to come back, so just go and change the incense burner quickly. Why are you acting like a mother-in-law?" Xiao Chen was anxious to find Liu Rufeng, and couldn't help but glare at the old eunuch.

"Okay, okay. I'm going to change my servant right now." As he said that, he hurriedly bowed his body and trotted towards the side hall.

Taking advantage of this time, Xiao Chen thought, if the dog he saw really belonged to Jin Yiwei, how could he get it?

She said she likes dogs? Liu Rufeng would not believe it.

If you like dogs, why don't you get one yourself?

It's not okay to say that you use dogs to test drugs.

How could you tell Jin Yiwei about such a confidential matter?

If it doesn't work, just use the majesty of the purple clothes on your body to force him to get it. At worst, I will pay him one, no, two dogs afterwards.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old eunuch came running over, breathing heavily.

"Master Ziyi, the incense burner has been replaced. I will light a stick of sandalwood in it again," the old eunuch said.

"That's right, I'll treat you to a drink later." Xiao Chen chuckled and hurried out of the hall, heading towards the gate of Tumu Fort.

The old eunuch behind him stood in his position, stared at Xiao Chen's back, and shook his head: "It's such a turbulent day, how can I show the posture of an uncrowned king?"

The camp of Jin Yiwei is stationed in the sand two miles south of the gate of Tumubao.

A temporary tent was all Jin Yiwei relied on to eat, drink and relieve himself.

In addition to the earthen fortress, there are sentries everywhere, and there are also several Jinyiwei captains standing at the gate of Jinyiwei's camp.

Seeing Xiao Chen in purple clothes approaching, the captain at the door straightened his waist and stopped whispering.

Xiao Chen in the distance couldn't help but chuckle.

I am just a member of a thousand households in Dongchang. Is the captain of Jin Yiwei so afraid of me?

"Master Ziyi!" Seeing Xiao Chen approaching, the guard in Jinyi at the door hurriedly bowed and saluted.

Xiao Chen nodded: "Yeah. Which thousand households are on duty at the camp today?"

"Wang Qianhu brought some people and accompanied the emperor to Huailai Guard. Inside the station, Liu Qianhu was on duty," the captain replied hurriedly.

"Take me to Liu Qianhu's tent."

"Yes." The captain replied neatly, gave instructions to the captain next to him, and led Xiao Chen into the tent community.

After twisting and turning, I finally stopped in front of a white tent that was slightly larger than the other tents.

"Liu Qianhu, Master Ziyi is here." The captain announced loudly to the tent.

"Who? Master Ziyi?" Liu Rufeng's voice came from inside, and then, the tent curtain was opened, revealing Liu Rufeng's handsome face.

"Master Ziyi, are you really here?" Liu Rufeng seemed a little surprised. He hurriedly opened the curtain and stepped aside, "Sir, please come in."

"Well, okay." Xiao Chen bowed his body slightly and walked in through the small door under the curtain that was just one person tall.

Entering the tent, Xiao Chen couldn't help but frown.

The ground of the tent was still the original sandy ground. There was nothing paved on it, just a tent surrounding it.

A large pit was dug on the ground in the middle, and some firewood was thrown in randomly, and the smoke was thick and choking, and it seemed that it was used for heating.

Inside the tent, except for a small bed, there were no other furnishings.

"Is the tent of Qianhu of Jinyiwei so shabby?" Xiao Chen turned around and looked at Liu Rufeng in front of him in disbelief.
