Ma Hao lowered his head in shame immediately and said in a contrite manner, "I don't dare to lie to you, Eldest Princess. I came this time because of my unfilial son. He did such a ridiculous thing, and I can only say that I didn't discipline him well. Eldest Princess, please spare him this time on my account."
Seeing the grief and anxiety on Ma Hao's face, Yu Yunxi recalled what Jiang Ying had reported to her not long ago: Ma Wanyang had been captured on the mountain and was now in prison. It was only natural that Ma Hao was anxious.
"Commander Ma, I can't do anything about this matter. If you feel that there's any injustice in the case, please look for the capital's magistrate," Yu Yunxi said coldly.
Ma Hao clenched his hands into fists when he heard this, looking slightly angry. Zuo Yingyao was very stubborn. He had gone to look for Zuo Yingyao earlier, but Zuo Yingyao refused to let his son go.
