With approval, the girl was quickly brought to Zhou Yu.
Seeing the grilled fish and pickled fish on the table, the girl swallowed hard before saying seriously, "Thank you so much, young master and young lady, for your generosity. On behalf of my brothers and sisters, I bow to you in gratitude."
As she said this, she was about to kneel down.
Li Lizhi, who was standing next to him, saw this and quickly spoke out to stop him.
When she got closer, she realized that the girl didn't seem to be much older than her.
Compared with Li Lizhi's emotionality, Zhou Yu is much more rational.
Although the girl was dressed in rags and had a dark complexion, her words and actions did not look like a beggar wandering the streets.
If you ignore her appearance, it wouldn't be inappropriate to say that she is a young lady from some family.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the sergeant of the Flying Cavalry Battalion next to him in confusion.
If they can't see such an obvious problem, then Zhou Yu will really doubt their abilities.
Seeing Zhou Yu looking at him, the sergeant from the Flying Cavalry Battalion froze for a moment, then quickly pleaded guilty: "I deserve to die, young master, please punish me."
Li Junxian, who was standing nearby, saw what was happening and clearly understood what was going on. Before Zhou Yu could even open his mouth, he sternly reprimanded him, "How dare you play tricks on me in front of the young master and the princess?"
The apology from the Flying Cavalry Battalion soldier and Li Junxian's harsh reprimand finally made the three little princesses realize that something was wrong.
The little girl was so scared that she crawled on the ground.
"Young Master, what's going on?"
Li Lizhi looked around but still couldn't figure out what was going on. She looked at Zhou Yu in confusion.
However, Zhou Yu did not answer. Instead, he looked at the cavalry sergeant with a playful expression, "Did you arrange all this in advance?"
"No... no, I just felt sorry for you, so... so I just decided on this on a whim..."
When the sergeant of the Flying Cavalry Battalion, who was originally bowing and apologizing, began to speak incoherently when he saw Zhou Yu's gaze.
Seeing this, even Li Junxian, who was originally prepared to defend him, became gloomy.
The soldiers from the Flying Cavalry Battalion who came this time were all elites personally selected by His Majesty, and their purpose was to protect the safety of Zhou Yu and the little princesses.
If there are people among these people with ulterior motives, they want to take advantage of the kindness of the little princesses to achieve certain goals.
Even if what they are trying to do is to uphold justice, it is not acceptable.
You know, doing this is not only a naked exploitation, but also puts the little princesses in danger.
This is not Chang'an, and there are many aristocratic families in the Tang Dynasty today.
Even if the princess wants to seek justice, there are considerable risks.
"Young Master, Young Lady, this is all my fault. I was so eager to thank you that I caused this young master to make a mistake. If you want to punish someone, please punish me!"
Just when Li Junxian was about to continue scolding, the girl suddenly knelt down and begged.
Her kneeling brought Li Lizhi, who was frowning, back to her senses instantly.
Then, without caring about other people's reactions, he stepped forward to support her and said, "What exactly is going on? Please tell me in detail."
After saying this, he looked at Zhou Yu with a pleading look on his face.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu had no idea what this girl was thinking.
He sighed slightly and said nothing more.
Upon seeing this, Li Junxian scolded the soldier, "What are you hiding? Tell Mr. Zhou and the princess right away."
"yes."
When the soldier heard Li Junxian scolding him, he was not dissatisfied at all. Instead, he looked at him with gratitude.
Then he recounted the entire story.
Just now, this soldier delivered instant noodles to the group of little beggars.
I thought it was just a simple errand, but I didn't expect that the girl leading this group of little beggars insisted on thanking Zhou Yu and the little princesses in person.
How could the sergeants of the Flying Cavalry Battalion not understand the little girl's thoughts?
It’s just because he had the same experience of begging when he was a child.
Not only that, there was also such an older sister protecting him at the time.
Because they shared the same suffering, he developed compassion.
So we have this scene now.
After hearing the explanation of the sergeant from the Flying Cavalry Battalion, Li Junxian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
What he was most worried about was that these guys from the Flying Cavalry Battalion would be clever enough to set a trap for Zhou Yu.
If this group of little beggars were really arranged by them in advance, the purpose was to take advantage of the situation to solve their problems.
No matter how many reasons he had, even if Zhou Yu and the little princesses did not pursue him, he was not going to let go of this sergeant from the Flying Cavalry Battalion.
Fortunately, things were different from what I imagined, and all of this was just a spur-of-the-moment decision.
But even so, he was still prepared to severely punish the Flying Cavalry Battalion soldier who acted so presumptuously.
But just when he was about to speak, Zhou Yu waved at him.
Seeing this, Li Junxian quickly stood aside tactfully.
Only then did Zhou Yu say calmly, "You've gone to so much trouble to see us. I guess it's not just to say thank you, right?"
Different from others.
Zhou Yu felt that this matter was not that simple.
Just as he asked this, Li Lizhi beside him said soothingly, "Young lady, if you have any grievances, please feel free to tell us. We will definitely help you as long as we can."
Hearing Li Lizhi say this, the girl first glanced at Zhou Yu secretly, and seeing that he did not react at all, her expression couldn't help but dim.
After hesitating for a moment, she didn't say anything else. Instead, she bowed her head and saluted again, saying, "I have no grievances. I came here to thank you for your generosity. I'm sorry to disturb you. I'll leave now..."
After saying that, he bent down and stepped back.
Seeing this, Li Lizhi stopped the other party directly.
It can be seen from the fact that the girl insisted on thanking him in person that she did have a purpose.
Whether out of curiosity or pity, she wanted to find out what was going on.
Zhou Yu did not stop this.
As long as the appearance of this group of little beggars was not premeditated, it would not be a bad idea to listen to their story.
As for whether to take action or not, we have to wait until we figure out what is going on.
But before that, I have to eat dinner first.
A lot of time has been wasted since the girl got on the boat.
If we delay any longer, the prepared food will probably get cold.
Not only that, the instant noodles given to those little beggars just now also took a long time to soak.
If you don't eat instant noodles quickly, the taste will be greatly reduced.
Li Lizhi naturally would not object to Zhou Yu's arrangement.
However, Li Junxian still took the little beggars onto the fishing boat.
I believe that with the care of the soldiers from the Flying Cavalry Battalion, these little beggars will be able to have a good meal.
