The Emperor's heart is won, she sits on the Phoenix Throne! The Divine Physician's Eldest

At this moment, Granny Lin stepped forward, looking at Old Madam Song with eyes full of hatred, "Old Madam, do you still remember me?"

When Madam Song saw Granny Lin, she was first taken aback, then asked in surprise, "You're still alive?!"

Granny Lin gave a cold laugh, "Did the people you sent to kill me say I fell off a cliff and you thought I was dead?"

Back then, after Madam Song drove Granny Lin out of the Zhenbei Marquis's mansion, she sent people to hunt her down. Granny Lin was chased to the edge of a cliff and fell off. The assassins thought she was dead.

She tripped over tree branches a few times during her fall, but was only injured and unconscious; she did not die.

After that, she fled all the way to Sang County and lived in the slums there until Song Siyao arrived.

"You're lucky you survived falling from such a high cliff!" Old Madam Song said viciously.

"You wicked person are still alive! How dare I die? Even if I die, I will drag you down to hell to avenge my old lady!" Granny Lin gritted her teeth.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" asked Madam Song.

Granny Lin snorted coldly, "You're still pretending. Back then, you kicked me out of the manor and sent people to hunt me down. Wasn't it because you were afraid of Gao Mi? Did you kill my old lady?"

Old Madam Song stubbornly denied it, saying, "You're talking nonsense..."

Song Siyao interrupted her, saying coldly, "I have already investigated and found out that when my father and brother passed away, my mother was devastated and fell ill. She started taking medication, which was effective at first, but later stopped working because you switched her medication!"

When Madam Song saw that what she had done back then had been exposed, she was stunned. She had done it perfectly. Lin Mama only suspected it, but had no evidence. She did not expect that Song Siyao had investigated so thoroughly.

Song Siyao continued, "Originally, you could have spent the rest of your life in prison, but you harmed my mother, and I'm going to kill you to avenge her. Today is your death day!"

Better to die than live.

Even though she was tortured like this in prison, Madam Song never thought of ending her own life.

She wanted to wait until a general amnesty was granted, so that she could go out and live in the sunlight.

A person as wicked as her is most afraid of losing her life.

So when she heard Song Siyao say she was going to kill her, she immediately became frightened and shouted, "Song Siyao, this is a prison cell! You killed someone here, do you think you can get out alive?"

"You think that if you shout like that, someone will come to save your life?" Song Siyao asked sarcastically.

Madam Song looked around, and indeed there was no sound at all.

Normally, even the slightest sound from inside the cell would trigger a loud warning from the guards outside. Just now, she deliberately spoke loudly, but failed to attract the guards' attention. Thinking of this, she was filled with fear. Had Song Siyao become so powerful after not seeing her for several months?

Just then, Granny Lin added insult to injury, "My young lady is now Princess Ning'an, a title bestowed by the Emperor himself. She can crush you like an ant."

Madam Song's pupils dilated suddenly, her face filled with disbelief. "Princess Ning'an? You've actually been granted the title of princess? How is this possible?"

Song Siyao revealed his waist token, and Old Madam Song collapsed to the ground. It was a waist token that only a princess could possess.

She used to disregard Song Siyao, but now she has to kneel and pay her respects to her.

Such a disparity was simply unbearable for Madam Song.

"You've lived this long, you should be content. Go down and join my mother, atone for her sins." Song Siyao took out a poison pill, pinched the old lady's chin, and said in a fierce voice, "This poison will rot your internal organs and cause you unbearable pain. The pain you inflicted on my mother, I will repay you tenfold today!"

"No!" Old Madam Song clung tightly to Song Siyao's hand, her eyes filled with pleading. "It's not that I want to kill your mother, it's that someone wants to kill her."

Upon hearing this, Song Siyao released her hand from holding Old Madam Song's chin and asked in a deep voice, "What did you say?"

“I admit I did want to kill your mother, but I didn’t have the guts. Someone instructed me to do it,” said Madam Song.

"Who is it?" Song Siyao asked.

She believed what Madam Song said because she discovered some oddities during her investigation, things that didn't make sense and that Madam Song couldn't have done.

Madam Song said, "Unless you promise to spare my life, I will tell you. Otherwise, don't even think about getting the truth of who that person is from me."

"Are you trying to negotiate with me?" Song Siyao grabbed Old Madam Song's chin again, making Old Madam Song feel like her chin was about to be crushed. "Even if you don't tell me, I can still find out, it's just a matter of time. But, you won't die so easily. And your daughter..."

"Don't touch Yu'er!" Old Madam Song said fearfully.

Song Siyao said coldly, "That depends on whether you're willing to cooperate."

"As long as you don't hurt my Yu'er, I'll tell you everything." Old Madam Song was not a good person, but her maternal love for Song Yu'er was unconditional.

“As long as she doesn’t provoke me, she can live a good life,” Song Siyao said.

Madam Song could only pray that Song Yu'er would not provoke Song Siyao. She smiled bitterly, "Yu'er, this is all I can do for you."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Siyao and revealed the secret she had kept in her heart, "The one who really killed your mother was ***, Song Siyao. I have given you the answer you wanted. I hope you will keep your promise. Yu'er will not cause you any trouble. You cannot hurt her, otherwise, I will haunt you even as a ghost!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she snatched the poison from Song Siyao's hand, shoved it into her mouth, and quickly swallowed it.

Song Siyao is now a princess. If Song Yu'er dares to provoke Song Siyao, Song Siyao has a thousand ways to deal with her.

As Song Yu'er's mother, this was the last thing she did for Song Yu'er.

As soon as the poison entered her stomach, Old Madam Song knelt on the ground, her face contorted in pain. Then, she clutched her abdomen with both hands and rolled around on the ground, feeling as if a million ants were gnawing at her insides. It was a feeling worse than death.

She wailed incessantly, in unbearable pain, desperately begging Song Siyao to give her a quick death.

But how could Song Siyao possibly do as she wished?

Song Siyao stared intently at her, watching her suffer in agony for a full half hour, her body convulsing until she died.

At this moment, the sky began to lighten with the first light of dawn, and Song Siyao led Granny Lin out of the prison.

When dawn broke, the jailers discovered that Old Madam Song had died, and the warden reported that she had died from a sudden illness.

In the prison, people like Old Madam Song could never leave for the rest of their lives. It was normal for them to die suddenly in prison, and no one would investigate the truth.

At noon, at the General's Mansion.

Song Yu'er was leisurely drinking chicken soup, continuing to nourish herself.

At that moment, Xilan rushed in, looking flustered.
