Han and Song Pengju had discussed not showing Song Lan's letter to their grandchildren, lest the two children accidentally let it slip outside and then get it to the emperor, who would then punish them for deceiving the emperor."

They used the excuse that the little girl had "sent a message" through the system in her dreams and sent high-yield crops and other things, so being cautious is useless!

Ten minutes later, Yun Wan led Song Zihan and his sister out of the main courtyard. After their footsteps faded away, Song Jinxing asked Song Pengju and Han: "Dad, Mom, you are still hiding something from me, right?"

"What can I hide from you?"

Song Pengju stared.

Han smiled and shook her head. Then, she took out a letter from a purple carved wooden box and handed it to Song Jinyan: "Here, this is a letter from Lan'er."

After a pause, she continued, "Your father used 'dreams' to explain to the Emperor why Lan'er gave us Daxia's high-yield crops and other things. You'll understand the reason for this after reading this letter."

Song Jinyan finished reading the letter with tears in his eyes. His voice trembled slightly, "That's great! That's great. Lan'er is still alive. As long as she is still alive, no matter where she is, this is great news for us!"

Song Pengju and Han were infected by his emotions, their eyes reddened, and they nodded and said, "That's right."

"However, the words on this letter are a little small, but fortunately they are clearly readable. Dad, Mom, what kind of pen do you think Lan'er used to write it?"

Looking at the lines of words on the letter, Song Jinyan was full of curiosity.

Song Pengju and Han shook their heads.

Song Jinyan folded the letter, stuffed it back into the envelope, and handed it back to Han, saying, "I don't know what Lan'er's husband is like in that world. If he treats Lan'er badly, we won't be able to teach him a lesson even if we want to!"

"What are you imagining? Lan'er has good taste. Since she said in the letter that the man she married is very good, then she must be right!"

Han glared at Song Jinyan and said, "When the things Lan'er gave us are fully promoted in Daxia, Daxia will surely be a thriving place!"

"Lan'er is thoughtful!"

In their Great Xia, in order to let the people on the border live a stable life and to prevent the territory of Great Xia from being invaded again, he took up the responsibility of the Duke's Mansion, went to the border, and after several years, completely eradicated the Tartars on the grassland. However, he himself was poisoned and left this world.

You are lucky enough to live a new life in another world, but instead of living a good life for yourself, you are still thinking about Daxia. What a fool, what a big fool!

Song Jinyan loves his sister, especially her!

The next day.

At the end of the morning court session, Emperor Wen Zhao made two announcements in succession that shocked all the civil and military officials like thunder and were unbelievable.

The first one was that after Song Lan died in battle, he "ascended to become an immortal", but he did not forget the development of Daxia and the lives of the people. He gave Daxia a "divine object" that could enable Daxia to develop steadily and prevent the people from suffering from hunger and cold; the other one was to build temples for Song Lan in various places in Daxia, and erect a bronze statue of Song Lan in the square outside the imperial palace!

After a while, all the civil and military officials came to their senses and looked at each other.

"Why, my dears, do you think I lied in court, or do you think I shouldn't have issued an edict to build a shrine for the Marquis of Zhanbei? No, I should have erected a bronze statue of the King of Zhanbei in the square outside the palace gate?!"

Emperor Wen Zhao half-narrowed his deep eyes and looked at the civil and military officials in the hall, his aura fully revealed.

"I don't dare!"

All the officials knelt on the ground.

Fight the Northern King?

It was already an exception to confer the title of Marquis of Zhanbei on a woman, and now, he has further conferred the title of King of a different surname. The emperor is truly partial!

There are a few individuals among the civil and military officials who secretly complain!

"Don't dare? I think you dare very much!"

Emperor Wen Zhao spoke with authority without anger: "Queen Zhanbei led her army for several years to completely annihilate the Tartars on the grasslands, freeing Daxia from invasion by their cavalry and freeing the people on Daxia's borders from the experience of burning, killing, and looting. Who among you can compare with her achievements?

At such a young age, she sacrificed her life for Daxia, moving the heavens. King Zhanbei was fortunate enough to ascend to immortality, but she never forgot Daxia, nor the millions of people who inhabited this land. She sent them high-yield grain and cotton seeds that they could use to make warm winter clothing...

Any of these grains, or even just the cotton seeds... are enough for me to confer upon her a title, build a temple, and erect a bronze statue!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Xiao Yu was the head of all officials, and he spoke loudly.

At the same time, he was very annoyed that he did not take the lead in expressing his agreement when Emperor Wen Zhao told the civil and military officials about the two things Song Lan said about Song Lan.

At that time...what was he thinking at that time?

By the way, at that moment, his mind was filled with the figure of that person, Song Lan, so much so that he was unable to respond in time after the emperor finished speaking!

As soon as Prime Minister Xiao Yu finished speaking, the officials in the hall shouted in unison, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Emperor Wen Zhao flicked his sleeves and snorted coldly, then assigned Xiao Yu and officials from the Ministry of Agriculture to be in charge of related matters. Then, at Yuan Bao's "dismiss the court", he left the hall with a sullen face.

Ningren Palace.

"Why do you look so bad?"

Emperor Wen Zhao left the palace and rode his imperial sedan chair all the way to the Empress Dowager's palace. After paying his respects to the Empress Dowager, he heard her concerned voice. He sat down on the chair brought by the palace maid and said:

"Before the morning court session ended, I mentioned my aunt's situation and proposed building shrines for her across Daxia and erecting a bronze statue in the center of the square outside the palace gate. But everyone just stood there in a daze, and no one responded!"

"Didn't you tell me what the sweet potatoes, potatoes, and corn your aunt gave you meant?"

the Queen Mother asked.

"Of course the child did talk about it."

Emperor Wen Zhao snorted and said, "They were probably shocked by my story about my aunt's 'ascension to immortality' and thought it was impossible. Mother, you didn't see how they all stared with their eyes wide open like they were commanders. They were so surprised by something they had never seen before!"

"You've used 'Ascending to Immortality' well!"

The Queen Mother laughed and said, "The officials probably just didn't react immediately because they were stunned for a moment. You're the Emperor, you can't get angry over such a small thing."

Emperor Wen Zhao didn't respond. He said, "Mother, I conferred the title of King of Zhanbei on my aunt during the morning court session. Do you think my aunt would be happy if she knew about this?"

"Would your aunt care about these false reputations?"

Shaking her head, the Queen Mother said, "Your aunt has never cared much about fame. She has always known what she wants to do and what she will do. As for whether or not she will leave a good reputation, she has never cared!"

Emperor Wen Zhao smiled and said, "I am self-righteous, but considering the contributions my aunt has made to Daxia, she deserves to be a king of a different surname."

"That's true!"

The Queen Mother said, "Now that your grandmother has learned that your aunt is alive in another world, she should be able to recover soon, right?!"

"I saw my grandmother in the Divine Doctor Valley yesterday. She looked much better. By the way, my great-grandfather is as healthy as ever. Mother, there's no need to worry too much."
