I read from: Chasing Jade (Zhu Yu) I think the Wattpad link you posted is better since it has chapter titles too. This one doesn't.

Let's just hope Xie Zheng would have told her one day about him saving her by performing gusha
but just not in the timeline we know.
The whole camp scene was exaggerated for nothing in the drama imo. The grain hunt was cut, bear hunting was cut, and changed to some lousy jail break and threatening the rival army to 'submit' their provisions. Fake marquis scene which never happened in the novel - imo those scenes looked more fake than real. And the Princess was never on the battlefield, it was another female apprentice. But with the changes made, we got a proper GSY - QS track which was not in the novel. Coming back to what I wanted to say
the emotional manipulation in the camp was the result of the changes they made. In the novel Xie Zheng was fuming inside knowing that she went to loot grains from the enemy camp but couldn't show it cuz he's playing the pitiful hubby in front of her
she bought him fur cloak and salt for cooking, who could say she broke the rules
she was just reprimanded.
And according to Chinese novel logic, the effect of aprodisiac can be supressed with loss of blood. He was cut, he deepened it to play sober for those few mins. Again in the novel there was no grand fair. The scene was set in the dark and he played a drunk man who accidentally tripped and fell into the water constantly leaning on Fan Changyu the whole time (which is more believable) SIGHHHH
Atp I'm just replying to everything in one post 
The author wrote the Marquis character really well. He is someone who would go crazy for Fan Changyu but he also knows his priorities and the weight of his responsibilities. So according to Xie Zheng FCY would be safe with Li Huaian's team rather than with himself, who's constantly out there fighting.
Plus Xie Zheng is worthy of his name and title, idkw the drama didn't have any fight scenes for him. They just show one move and scene cut! Someone even asked if Xie Zheng got the title Marquis of Wu'an as his birthday gift and from the drama perspective, it looks like that only.
