"This entire matter is the fault of the Chengyuan Marquis Manor. Even if you, County Princess, were angry enough to refuse to see me, I would willingly accept it. Your Highness was magnanimous; not only did you not punish the manor, you even bestowed a generous gift upon me. I am deeply grateful and have come today specifically to offer my thanks."
