This action is really inappropriate. How should I, Long Yin, explain to Han Lan?
Now, the deputy general of the Hanlan Feiyu Army is outside the palace gate, waiting for an explanation from the court!
"I, your humble servant, believe that the Demon Eagle King's actions were inappropriate! He should personally apologize to the Hanlan envoy and admit his mistake!"
Si Junshan, who was standing on the other side, heard this and said with a sullen face:
"According to what the old Prime Minister said, I will let my daughter be bullied by Yuan Qiuzhi in the street without any resistance?
And as the future husband of my daughter, he should remain indifferent and ignore everything? Is this what the Prime Minister wants?
"Does the old Prime Minister think that what I, Long Yin, have done requires Han Lan to be relieved before we can reach an agreement?"
Liu Yangfeng twitched his lips and said, "General Si is wrong. I am only speaking based on the facts."
Upon hearing this, Si Junshan was so angry that his body trembled. Liu Yangfeng was mocking him for being emotional!
But as a father, how could he watch his daughter being bullied and not protect her?
At this moment, he really wanted to drag him out of the hall and punch him hard twice, maybe even knocking out a few of his teeth!
At this time, He Wenqin, the Left Censor-in-Chief, stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I think the Prime Minister is wrong.
Yuan Qiuzhi is not only an envoy, but also the eldest princess. This is true!
But Si Jinxing is not only the second lady of the Si family, she is also the Princess of Anping County who saved thousands of people in Longyin from the epidemic!
"If we don't even protect our own county lord, how can we, Long Yin, have any face left if we tell others about it? How can we allow others to bully us?"
Emperor Chongde, who was sitting behind the dragon desk, heard this and nodded.
"Your words are absolutely right. The Princess of Anping has made great contributions by traveling north with you this time!
General Si Junshan had guarded the border for many years and won a great victory in the fight against Han Lan. His contribution is invaluable!
Because Lord Si has been seriously injured and recuperating, I have not yet rewarded him for his merits!
Today, I would like to take this opportunity to confer the title of Marquis of Pingguan on General Si Junshan!
I have ordered the Secretariat to draft an imperial edict, which will be delivered to General Zhenyuan's residence soon!"
As soon as Emperor Chongde finished speaking, everyone in the Southern Study was stunned. What did this have to do with anything? Wasn't he talking about how to explain this to Han Lan?
A hint of joy flashed across Qi Nanyan's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He really didn't know whether it was a blessing or a curse for his father-in-law to receive such honor!
After all, Si Junshan is a tough nut to crack!
Crown Prince Qi Nanyuan was the first to congratulate: "Congratulations to General Si, no, no, it's time to change the words, congratulations to Marquis Pingguan, it's really a cause for celebration!
Marquis Pingguan, why don't you express your gratitude quickly?"
