Chapter 426 Finding Clues



"Young Master, this matter...should we inform Aye and ask him to send someone to investigate?"

Li Lizhi, who had listened to the story from beginning to end, had already become solemn.

Although she is not very old, her knowledge is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

She could also think of the problems that Zhou Yu could realize.

Not only that, she was thinking more from Li Er's perspective.

It was precisely because of this that, although she was asking, her heart was already burning with anxiety.

She could clearly see Zhou Yu's abilities.

If there really were other people who could travel through time and had bad intentions, even if Aye stayed in the palace, there was no guarantee that there wouldn't be any problems.

Zhou Yu came back to his senses after hearing Li Lizhi's question.

After taking a deep look at the girl, he shook his head and said, "No need."

Although he guessed that the couple might be his parents, he could not confirm it based on the current evidence until he found the bearded man.

If the other party was looking for a time traveler, he would have noticed the movements in Chang'an City a long time ago.

Now that I am heading south on a yacht, I am likely to be under the other party's surveillance.

Even these little beggars were sent by the other party as a test.

Originally, he wanted to use himself as bait to lure out those aristocratic families.

I didn't expect that I would encounter such a thing just half a day after leaving Chang'an City.

Now that I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark, it is better to lure the snake out of its hole than to investigate aimlessly.

"In that case, let's have a good meal!"

Li Lizhi heard this and didn't say anything else.

Although she didn't quite understand, she knew that Zhou Yu must have his own ideas.

Upon hearing this, Chengyang, who was standing next to them, quickly stood up and offered the little beggars food and drink.

It’s just that because of what happened just now, the atmosphere in the cabin suddenly became much more depressing.

Even the little baby's big eyes began to roll around.

Because everyone had their own preoccupations, the meal was quite dull.

After the group of little beggars wolfed down their meal, Zhou Yu arranged for someone to take them off the yacht.

After sending them ashore, Li Lizhi looked at Zhou Yu in confusion and said, "Young Master, since they know the clues, why don't you keep them here?"

"Yeah~ They look so pitiful~"

Upon hearing this, the little kid quickly nodded in agreement.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu first reached out and rubbed the little girl's head, then looked at the shore and said, "Since those people were able to deal with the bearded man and burn down his house, do you think they couldn't find a few children?"

"You mean to say that they are under surveillance by those people?"

Upon hearing this, Li Lizhi exclaimed in disbelief.

Even Cheng Yang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but frown.

Only the little kid was blinking his big sparkling eyes, with a look of innocence and cuteness on his face.

"Whether it is true or not, we will know when the people sent by Li Junxian come back."

As Zhou Yu spoke, he pointed to the fishing boat next to him.

He originally planned to arrange someone to follow the children after they left.

Unexpectedly, before I gave the order, Li Junxian had already made arrangements.

After all, he is a famous person in history, and he is really not comparable to ordinary people.

Fearing an ambush, Zhou Yu simply ordered the boat to stop in the middle of the river.

Not only that, even the guards of the Flying Cavalry Battalion had adjusted their compound bows and repeating crossbows to a state where they could be fired at any time.

As for the little princesses, Zhou Yu also sent them back to the villa.

If you really encounter an attack with full firepower coverage, even a yacht cannot guarantee 100% safety.

During the following period of time, Zhou Yu waited quietly in the yacht's cockpit.

I thought it would be very troublesome to investigate this matter, but not long after, Li Junxian returned to the yacht with a pointed-mouthed and monkey-faced old man.

Behind the little old man, there was a group of little beggars with tearful eyes.

The siblings who had just left were actually inside.

When the beggars saw Zhou Yu, they quickly stepped forward and pleaded, "Young Master, Grandpa Xiao is a good man. Can you please not arrest him?"

Upon hearing this, the other little beggars also hurriedly followed suit and began to pray.

"Yes, Grandpa Xiao is a good man. If it weren't for him, we would all be starving~"

"Young Master, if Grandpa Xiao offends you, I am willing to take the punishment for him. Please don't blame him, okay?"

"That's right, I'm also willing to take the punishment on behalf of Grandpa Xiao~"

Hearing the beggars' pleading, Zhou Yu couldn't help but look at Li Junxian in confusion.

Seeing this, Li Junxian hurried forward and whispered, "Young Master, this man, after inquiring about the yacht, prepared to leave the city overnight. If our men hadn't revealed their identities and stopped him at the city gate, he would have already left the city on his horse."

As he said that, he walked forward and tore off the old man's clothes.

As the coarse linen clothes on the outside were torn open, the delicate clothes inside were revealed.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu immediately understood that this little old man with a pointed chin and monkey-like face must be of extraordinary status.

Not only him, but even the group of little beggars all looked confused.

Even the little guys who were clamoring for conviction just now all shut up.

"I have something to ask your little grandfather. Can you guys eat something here first?"

Although he knew that the old man's identity was questionable, Zhou Yu did not interrogate him in front of those little beggars.

He first took out a bunch of snacks and placed them in front of them, then winked at Li Junxian.

When the old man saw that Zhou Yu was going to take him away alone, he immediately wanted to shout at those little beggars.

But just as he made a move, Li Junxian secretly punched him in the heart.

The next moment, the little old man who was about to struggle turned into a big shrimp.

At the same time, two sergeants from the Flying Cavalry Battalion tactfully carried him out of the cabin.

Seeing the old man leave, the group of little beggars looked somewhat confused.

However, as the aroma of snacks entered their noses, they were quickly attracted by the snacks on the table.

Seeing that the little beggars had all diverted their attention, Zhou Yu waved to the little girl who had just told the story.

The little girl hesitated for a moment, but finally followed.

Seeing this, her two younger brothers and two younger sisters also hurriedly trotted to catch up.

Several people came to the second-floor cabin of the yacht. Zhou Yu first motioned them to sit down, and gave each of them a bottle of AD calcium milk. Then he said in a gentle tone: "I believe you all saw what happened just now.

If this matter is not mistaken, there is definitely something wrong with your Grandpa Xiao.

If you want to understand what happened to your parents, tell me in detail about Grandpa Xiao!"
