Chapter 337 Indispensable contribution
The next morning, in the court, Shang Zhanchen and General Su recounted the events in Lingbei in detail in front of all the civil and military officials.
Everyone present could hear them frowning and clenching their fists nervously, knowing that the environment in Lingbei was difficult.
But he did not expect that the soldiers had already reached the point of eating grass and had no clothes to change into. The emperor frowned even more when he heard this.
"I'm sorry to have made you suffer." The emperor looked at Shang Zhanchen and General Su.
Even though it sounds easy to hear them talking now, I can still feel how difficult the environment was at that time.
Fortunately, all this is over, and the Tiansheng Kingdom signed a peace agreement, so the suffering of the soldiers was not in vain.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has made an indispensable contribution to the success of this battle." General Su stepped forward and bowed respectfully to the Emperor.
Without the help of the Crown Princess, let alone winning the battle, I'm afraid not many soldiers would survive.
"Oh? What do you mean?" The emperor's eyes lit up.
He didn't know that Shen Yiyi was in the military camp, and when he heard General Su say this, he felt very curious.
Even the other ministers were confused as to how this matter was related to the Crown Princess.
General Su did not waste any time and reported truthfully.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is a skilled doctor. If she hadn't brought the soldiers with her to prepare a large amount of medicinal materials,
It is unknown how many soldiers had died, and the Crown Princess personally took part in rescuing the wounded together with the military doctors.
The ones who were treated were the most seriously ill. Because of the Crown Princess, countless soldiers saved their lives.
The conditions in the military camp were extremely harsh, but the Crown Princess never complained about it, and even the food she ate was the same as everyone else.
All the soldiers in the army admire the Crown Princess. She is truly as capable as any man. "
General Su bowed to the emperor again. What he said was true. The Crown Princess had a very noble status.
He actually did not look down on these rough guys and followed everyone to treat the wounded, which really made them admire him.
"Oh? Are you saying that the Crown Princess has been in the military camp in Lingbei?" The emperor's eyes sparkled.
I had heard that the Crown Princess had escaped from her marriage, but I didn’t expect that she actually went to the military camp. I didn’t expect that she even knew medicine.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess has been in the military camp in Lingbei." General Su bowed respectfully to the emperor again.
"Oh." The emperor's lips curled slightly.
When the Crown Princess ran away from the marriage, he was also very upset. His son was so outstanding, yet he ran away from the marriage. He didn't expect that she would go to the military camp in Lingbei.
"..." Shen Ze looked at General Su.
Even the always upright General Su praised Yi Yi so much, it seems that her medical skills are really good.
It seems that I have paid too little attention to her over the years, and I didn't even know that she had learned such powerful medical skills.
As he was thinking about this, Right Prime Minister He Yuan took a step forward.
"Your Majesty, although the Crown Princess has made great contributions, running away from the marriage is a great disrespect to the royal family. Such behavior of contempt for the royal family makes her unworthy of being the Crown Princess, let alone the mother of the country."
He Yuan saluted respectfully towards the emperor. Although no emotion could be seen on his face, he was extremely sarcastic in his heart.
It was unacceptable for him to think of re-entering the royal family as a woman who had escaped from her marriage.
As soon as he finished speaking, several court officials behind him came forward.
"Your Majesty, what the Right Prime Minister said is that the Crown Princess disrespected the Emperor's grace and fled on the day of her wedding. This is a great disrespect to the royal family and she should be punished."
"I second the proposal."
One by one, they came forward and asked the emperor to punish Shen Yiyi. They were undoubtedly all members of He Yuan's party.
Upon hearing what they said, Shen Ze became anxious. Just as he was about to step forward and argue with them, Shang Zhanbai laughed sarcastically.
"Your Excellency is wrong."
Shang Zhanbai came up to him in a nonchalant manner and looked at He Yuan and the court officials behind him with a smile.
"What is running away from marriage? Running away from marriage means that the bride is away from her husband. The Crown Princess ran away from home on the day of her wedding.
But she went to find the prince, and lived and ate with him every day. Do you think this is also running away from marriage?"
Shang Zhanbai looked at He Yuan and the others with a smile. These old guys were really omnipresent and would not give up any opportunity to suppress the royal family.
Now that he has directed his anger towards the Third Emperor's wife, I have no choice but to speak up.
"This..." He Yuan and the others choked.
I was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say, but the emperor was happy.
"Bai'er, are you saying that the Crown Princess has always been with the Crown Prince?" The Emperor looked at Shang Zhanbai.
If it is really as Bai'er said, then running away from the marriage is another matter.
"Father, after the Crown Princess left on the day of her wedding, she has been with me. She first went to the military camp in Lingnan, and then followed me to Lingbei.
General Wei and General Su can both testify to this."
Shang Zhanchen also saluted respectfully towards the emperor, his face still showing the calmness that showed he was in control of the world.
Upon hearing what the prince said, General Su and General Wei stepped forward at the same time.
"Your Majesty, what the Crown Prince said is correct. The Crown Princess eats and lives with the Crown Prince every day, and also helps the military doctors treat the wounded."
"Yes, she even brought the soldiers with her to make medicine. Even the formula of the medicine was provided by the Crown Princess."
General Wei and General Su talked about Shen Yiyi's glorious deeds.
Not only did everyone present look shocked, but even the emperor laughed excitedly.
"Really? Hahahaha... Left Prime Minister, you really raised a good daughter." The emperor looked at Shen Ze with approval.
He had previously disagreed with the Crown Princess's escape from marriage, and now he heard what General Wei and General Su said.
The unhappiness in my heart was completely gone, and I felt happier.
He didn't expect that his daughter-in-law actually knew medicine. He remembered what Chen'er told him yesterday about the profitability of the pharmaceutical factory.
I was so happy that I couldn't express it in words. No wonder the Imperial Observatory said that the Crown Princess was Chen'er's lucky star. It was really true.
Fortunately, the queen insisted and did not cancel the marriage, otherwise the loss would be great.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your compliment." Shen Ze bowed to the emperor.
He was very happy in his heart. He didn't expect that his daughter, whom he had always been the least optimistic about, would be so proud.
The fact that the usually conservative General Wei and General Su praised her so much is enough to show that Yiyi's medical skills are quite impressive.
How could He Yuan be willing to accept this when he failed to depose the Crown Princess? He took a step forward and was about to continue arguing when he was interrupted by the Emperor.
“Although it was ill-considered for the Crown Princess to leave on the day of her wedding, she has always been with the Crown Prince, so it can’t be considered running away from the marriage.
Now that he has made many military achievements, he really deserves a reward." The emperor stroked his beard happily and looked at the court officials seriously.
"The Crown Princess was not afraid of hardships. She treated the wounded in the army and made medicine for the soldiers. She is as brave as any man.
I hereby reward you with ten thousand taels of gold, one hundred rolls of brocade, ten pairs of pearls, and a pair of ruyi. The left prime minister has taught his daughter well. I hereby reward you with ten thousand taels of gold, one hundred rolls of brocade, and ten pairs of pearls..."
The emperor spoke excitedly about the reward, saying that since the Crown Princess had made such a great contribution to this battle, she deserved a generous reward.
The most important thing is that he is rich now, and the national treasury and the gold vault are almost full, so this reward is nothing.
