Chapter 209: Dripping Grace

spy?
They hurriedly walked over and looked away from the crowd. The leading soldier was carrying a ragged child by the back collar. The child was constantly struggling and kicking.
Taking a closer look, Nan Yan's eyes widened.
This child is not someone else, but the one who was chased by Xiaoer because of stealing steamed buns in front of the restaurant in Nan'an Town.
He was not tall, and was carried by the tall soldier, like a puppy.
At this moment, he turned his head back abruptly, grabbing the soldier's hand and biting hard. The soldier was in pain and yelled to let him go. As soon as the child landed, he pushed aside the crowd and rushed forward.
People around yelled: "Catch him!"
The child panicked and rushed into Nan Yan's arms.
"Ouch!"
Nan Yan was hit by him and almost fell.
When the child looked up and saw her, he stopped immediately.
Nan Yan covered his stomach with one hand, and grabbed his shoulder with one hand: "It's you, why did you come here?"
At this moment, the soldiers immediately surrounded them, shouting loudly to catch the spies, but Ye Wei on the side saw that they seemed to know them. He stretched out his hand to stop those people and asked, "Nanyan, do you know him?"
"Well, Master Jian and I met this kid in Nan'an Town."
A soldier next to him said, "Master Ye, this kid is a spy."
"spy?"
Nan Yan and Ye Yu both frowned, and the child immediately said loudly, "I am not!"
Someone in the crowd said, "Then why are you hanging around outside our barracks?"
"I--"
The child was biting his lower lip and was a little speechless, but Nan Yan saw that he was still holding a slingshot in his hand, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Last night, the person who hurt Xiahoujiao's eyes with a stone ,It's you?"
The child looked up at her and nodded gently.
The people around were shocked when they heard Nan Yan's words. Ye Yu immediately said, "You just said that Xiahoujiao's eyes were injured. He did it?"
Nan Yan lowered his voice and said in Ye Xun's ear: "Last night, the emperor took me back. When I was on the in front, I was almost shot by Xia Hujiao's strong bow. As a result, I saw the underneath. Someone hit Xia Houjie in the eyes with a stone."
Ye Xu also saw the slingshot in the kid's hand.
He still couldn't believe it: "This kid, hurt Xiahoujiao?"
"..."
"Why are you doing this?"
The child's fierce eyes stared at the people around him like wolves. Only when he looked at Nan Yan, his gaze eased slightly. He said, "My mother said, the grace of dripping water will be rewarded by the spring."
"Repaying your favor? You—"
Nan Yan also understood immediately: "You, have you been following me until here?"
The child nodded.
She took a deep breath.
She did not expect that this child would come to Yongzhou because of herself, outside the camp, and even rescued her and the emperor.
Just because, to repay the grace of that drop of water.
The people around were a little at a loss, not sure what was going on, but Ye Xun had already understood it by and large. He thought for a while and said, "I have to ask the emperor about this matter, and I have to ask Master Jane to come over."
Nan Yan understood that in the military camp, everyone should be cautious about everything. She nodded and said, "Of course."
Ye Yu said, "This kid---let you take care of it first."
