Li Mi was already interested in Shanshan, and was about to go back to his home and turn back to Cai Ge Village to find a breakthrough, but he didn't expect that the little official of the Jiading County Nursing Home would stop him halfway!

"Li Zhutou, I am in the yamen, it is inconvenient to tell you, there is something that you must be interested in..."

Seeing the mercenary smile on the officer's face, Li Mi also took a small piece of silver and threw it to the officer.

The official took the silver, smiled, and put it in the sleeve, and then said to Li Mi.

"The head catcher is also a public person, you should know that there is no oil and water in the nursery, and even if there is, no one dares to fish, and life is tight..."

Li Miben still had some hopes, but he could see that this official looked obscene, so he didn't have much hope.

"A certain solid is known, and it is not verbose, and it is important to say it."

The official nodded again and again: "Yes, yes." ”

"The ship that Li Zhutou wants to ask about is indeed such a situation, but there is a slight difference in time..."

"In time? Not at the beginning of the year? ”

"No, that was three years ago..."

"Three years ago?" Li Mi couldn't help but be interested, although it had nothing to do with Zhou Yu's investigation, he was also very curious about why this little official still remembered a small boat that was lost three years ago!

"Why do you remember it so clearly when it was three years ago?"

The official snorted and sneered: "I don't remember it clearly, but the entire Jiading County government officials remember it clearly!" ”

"Why is that?"

"Because at that time, a young man said that he wanted to donate a sum of materials to the nursing home, and the county magistrate at that time had not yet been transferred, and seeing that this person was very popular, and it was by no means an ordinary child, he personally received it, but the man proposed to use these materials to exchange for the first child in the nursing home."

Although Li Mi has only been a catcher in Wu County for three or four days, he has done his homework before he becomes a catcher, and he knows the inside story.

These people only need to donate a small amount of money to be able to adopt the children in the home, which is much more profitable than hiring slaves and maids.

These people either really want to adopt benevolent children, or they want to raise them as slaves, and some even adopt girls just to be child brides.

But in any case, this can also solve the trouble of the county government, after all, the county government is too bloated, there is not much spare power to take care of the almshouse, most of them have to rely on the squire rich to fund, and there are also many greedy for fame, often come to donate some old sesame rotten grain.

There are even some scholars and literati who donate books and the like, or come to the nursing home to write poems and inscriptions, and are compassionate and compassionate, but they are just pretending to satisfy their selfishness and seek peace of mind.

This is also the reason why the nursing home gradually only left the elderly waiting to die, but rarely saw the children.

Of course, if the likes of human traffickers adopt these children, after all, it is against the peace of heaven, and the government cannot do these things, and the adopters must be law-abiding and good citizens, with a certain economic foundation, if there is really no power to raise them, the county government will not take them away.

Li Mi heard the ordinary thing, and it was inevitable that he was a little impatient, but after all, he endured it and said to the officer.

"That's a good thing, what's so strange about that?"

The official wanted to play tricks on Guan Zi, but seeing that Li Mi was a little impatient, he replied directly.

"It's strange that the county magistrate not only didn't let him adopt, but also kicked him out, and he didn't even accept his funding!"

When Li Mi heard this, he couldn't help but be curious, and said to the officer: "Do you want to come to the county master to see that person's face clearly and know that he is not a person who can be trusted?" ”

The official smiled, shook his head and said, "The problem is not with that person, but with the child he wants to adopt is really weird..."

"Eccentric? What can be strange about this child in a hospice? ”

The official looked around, and then lowered his voice and said, "That kid is not an ordinary person, that is the eldest grandson of Qi Yin, the righteous son of General Qi Jiguang!" ”

"Qi Changkong!"

When Li Mi heard this, he had goosebumps all over his body, and he only felt that countless pictures appeared in his mind, like the fire trees and silver flowers, fireworks jumping wildly, and his mind was chaotic, obviously flooding with countless reveries, but he couldn't catch a clue!

"Huh? How did the head catcher know that the child's name was Qi Changkong? This... But also, the county government knows about this... I knew that the head catcher knew the inside story, this silver... I'm embarrassed to accept the small ones..."

Li Mi didn't pay attention to what he said, and immediately asked, "That child was finally taken away?" ”

"Where is it possible to take it away, at that time, the county lord admired the majesty of General Qi Yin, although he didn't dare to adopt seriously, but he cared about Qi Changkong's child very much... But later, the boy was lost..."

"How can this living child be so lost?"

"It's also scary, the young scholar didn't get angry when he learned that the county lord should not admit it, but just scared the county lord, saying that the county lord would definitely ask to come to him within three days, and he wouldn't bother to help if he didn't kneel..."

When Li Mi heard this, Zhou Yu's posture had already appeared in his heart, and only he could do such a thing.

"Three days later, the county magistrate really knelt down, right?" When Li Mi asked this, the official was also stunned, and then shook his head with a wry smile, and stuffed the silver coin back into Li Mi's hand.

"I thought the head catcher was a brother from another county, and I wanted to say that I would earn you a meal of tea, but it seems that you know everything, and the little one is really a trick..."

Li Mi waved his hand, motioned for him to accept the silver, and then continued to ask: "I am also hearsay, where is it clearer than the little brother, and what happened later?" ”

When the official heard Li Mi say this, he became proud again, but he raised his head and looked at the sky, with a yearning face.

"That man... Young in white, standing on the river, with long hair flying, leading Qi Changkong, standing on the small boat you are looking for, going down the river, that demeanor... I've only seen it once in my life..."

The official said this, and when he thought about it, he realized that he was too forgetful, and when he came back to his senses, he smiled and said to Li Mi.

"It made the head catcher laugh, because this happened, the county magistrate also resigned and went home to farm, and the county was not allowed to mention it, but people said that the geese had left a voice, the boat and the people, but they all had a case record..."

"In the future, there was no one who didn't know about this incident in the Yamen, that is, the people of Jiading County, and they were all talking about it after tea and dinner."

Li Mi listened like this, and held his breath like this, and he couldn't come back.

He thought that Zhou Yu intended to adopt Qi Changkong, but he just valued Qi Changkong's talent potential, who knew that he had already accepted Qi Changkong three years ago, what did this mean?

It means that Zhou Yu has long known about his secret! From the beginning of Li Mi's entry into the tooth shop, from the beginning of Li Mi's contact with Qi Changkong, and even a group of children such as Jiu Bucket, I am afraid that they are all Zhou Yu's people!

And all of this, to prevent Kaoru Asakusa from assassinating Li Mi, seizing the Ma Wangye Temple, all kinds of things, everything, will be branded as Zhou Yu, the mastermind behind the scenes!

Li Mi thought that he had escaped Zhou Yu's schemes, but until this time he knew that since he entered this era, he had already let Zhou Yu target him, and he just chose to appear in Cai Ge Village!

He has always wanted to investigate Zhou Yu's origins, but Zhou Yu has already wanted to investigate his secret from the moment he entered the tooth shop!

Li Mi now thinks back that he was in the Guandi Temple in Polongqi, talking to Zhou Yu, talking about the world and the scene after a thousand years, it was really a stupid decision!

He thought that Zhou Yu was just alone, relying on his almost demonic resourcefulness and vast knowledge reserves, playing with everyone between applause.

Only then did he know that Zhou Yu was like a camel's thorn in the desert, revealing only the branches of tenacious and unyielding alone against the storm and dust, but the underground was a huge root system that penetrated deeply into the ground and spread out unknowingly wide!

Li Mi was silent for a long time, unable to speak.

He had suffered many setbacks and failures, and even in the case of Yao, although he tried not to think about it, it still left a shadow on him.

He prides himself on having the knowledge and experience of later generations, he thinks he doesn't have much ambition, he just wants to be a detective and become the first detective of the Ming Dynasty, although it is a bit arduous, but he still has a lot of self-confidence.

However, at this time, he realized that from the beginning, he had become the prey and became Zhou Yu's prey!

He was even thinking, maybe the Zhang family was also Zhou Yu's person, and Qiu Dong might also be his person, otherwise how could Xie Yingluo save him in such a timely manner?

After Li Mi was Shen Jiang, it was easy for Xie Yingluo to steal his treasure knife and belongings, but why didn't Cai Ge Village make any moves? Didn't they find out that something was stolen, didn't they have the slightest suspicion?

Besides, Xie Yingluo didn't know the importance of the ship's gangway, and it was forgivable to steal Li Mi's treasure knife back, but even stealing this rotten wood back, it was inevitable that there was some deliberate intention to guide Li Mi.

At present, Li Mi is also a soldier, and he only feels that everyone he comes into contact with has the shadow of Zhou Yu, and everything has the possibility of Zhou Yu's plan.

Even if this official took the initiative to sell intelligence news and tell these rumors, it is very likely that it was arranged by Zhou Yu!

This is the first time since the crossing that Li Mi has been shaken so greatly, as if everything he has experienced is just a dream.

It was as if he was the chess piece that Zhou Yu handed over to him, standing in his chess game from beginning to end, and he was high up, overlooking it all!

Zhou Yu has an incomparable vision of ordinary people, maybe Li Mi thinks he is useless, but Zhou Yu sees the value of Li Mi, maybe it is the map analysis method, or maybe it is the advanced thinking that Li Mi often shows.

All of this made Li Mi the prey of Zhou Yu.

However, Li Mi also knew very well that Zhou Yu wanted to kill him Li Mi, there were countless opportunities, and there were thousands of means and methods, but he did not do this, but let Li Mi investigate his origin, maybe this was also a test for Li Mi.

And his tolerant attitude only shows one problem, he has no hostility towards Li Mi, he just wants to adopt Qi Changkong, let Li Mi also become his pawn, and let Li Mi submit to him and obey him!
