This was the captain of the light cavalry who once fought against a hundred enemies alone at the border. He was extremely fierce and terrified the enemy!

Xin Che's icy face didn't hold back, and he revealed an expression that looked unbearable: "Although our Zhaoping Marquis Mansion has fallen on hard times, people can't... at least shouldn't..."

"Master, please listen to my explanation!"

When Cheng Jiayu saw his master's expression become guilty and helpless, he knew that his master was overthinking it and he was innocent!

Xin Che sighed. He didn't need Cheng Jiayu to explain. It was his fault.

"Get up, after all, it's me who has implicated you."

"Let's talk about something more important. How many of us are left? And how did you end up in Guanjiazhai?"

Upon hearing this, Cheng Jiayu said sternly, "After you returned to the capital, a mutiny broke out at the border. Some people betrayed us, and we had no choice but to stay behind to survive."

"The scene was extremely chaotic, and everyone had no choice but to flee in all directions. A rough estimate is that there were less than 300 people left."

Xin Che frowned when he heard this. Of the five batches of elite soldiers he had personally trained, less than one-third were left.

Cheng Jiayu poured Xin Che a pot of hot tea and said, "Two months ago, I fled here from the northern border. I traveled three thousand miles and lost two horses before I finally escaped the pursuers."

"I was seriously injured and fainted, and was picked up by the leader of Guanjia Village. Information is very limited here, and I only heard the news that Zhaoping Houfu was sentenced to exile in Haizhou ten days ago."

"Guanjiazhai is very close to the route of your exile, so I stayed to see if there was any chance to rescue you."

"Who knew that the village chief was not only very wary of me, but also forced me to get married in the bridal chamber!"

Cheng Jiayu recalled the events of her wedding night: "But something strange happened."
