Daohua grabbed Dong Yuanyao by the arm, but before they could exchange pleasantries, Sun Changze sternly said to Xiao Yeyang, "On my way back to Beijing, I noticed two passenger ships with very deep drafts docked at Jingyun Port."
"Normally, passenger ships don't sit that low in the water. I thought about going over to investigate, but before I could get in the water, I spotted a big man patrolling the ship. Guess who that man was?"
Xiao Yeyang raised an eyebrow, "Could it be Tartars?"
Dong Yuanyao interjected, "They're the very Tartars we followed here."
Xiao Yeyang's expression became grave, "No wonder my men haven't been able to find them; they've been hiding on the water."
Sun Changze added, "There must be something hidden on those passenger ships. I was afraid they would find me, just like last time, and I didn't want to startle them, so I didn't dare approach. Instead, I brought Yuanyao here to inform you immediately."
