The entire village witnessed this miracle—Yu Shaoqing had finally been cleared of his injustice. He was no longer guilty of stealing military achievements. He was a great hero who had saved the people at the border! More importantly, he had been conferred the title of… Marquis of Zhongyong!
The entire village was stunned.
"Hurry up and accept the decree and thank His Majesty," Eunuch Wang reminded him.
"I thank you for your kindness!" Yu Shaoqing kowtowed piously and stood up to take the imperial edict from Eunuch Wang.

As soon as he finished speaking, Little Chen, who was beside him, pinched his waist hard. He screamed in pain. "Ah—you woman! You're really pinching!"
