Whats going on here?

Okay so chapter five was pretty confusing to me. It might be because I read when I was tired, but once I re-read I still have some questions. Particularly on the first page of the chapter. Here is the passage:
"'Missis,' returned the gallant sergeant, 'speaking for myself , I should reply, the hounor and pleasure of his fine wife's acquaintance ; speaking for the king, I answer, a little job done."
It might just be me, but I'm so confused with the context and I just don't understand what they are trying to say there. Thanks for any help :)
