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

The blood of the 141 people in the Grand Tutor's mansion stained the front hall, forming a shallow river of blood.

The evil deeds committed by Su Taifu and his clansmen vanished in the River of Blood.

"Princess, all 141 people in the Grand Tutor's mansion are dead," the guard reported.

"Clean it up and move everything from the Grand Tutor's residence into the palace!" Song Siyao ordered.

"Yes, county lord."

An hour later, the Grand Tutor's mansion was an empty house.

On the pillars in the front hall, on the fence of the flowerbed, on the stone table in the pavilion...

Bloodstains from those people were everywhere.

The vast mansion was deserted; the laughter and bustling activity of the past seemed like a dream.

Only the fresh bloodstains proved that they had truly existed in this mansion.

However, they will soon disappear from this world completely, and no one will remember them anymore.

A cold wind blows, and desolation fills the scene; the grandeur of the Grand Tutor's mansion will never return.

The once illustrious Su Taifu Mansion was thus removed from the annals of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Song Siyao turned around and stepped out of the Grand Tutor's residence.

She looked up and saw the magnificent and imposing words "Grand Tutor's Mansion" which were extremely jarring and incongruous with the dilapidated and desolate Grand Tutor's Mansion.

She used her lightness skill to fly upwards, and with a swing of her broadsword, the plaque of the Grand Tutor's Mansion fell to the ground and shattered into several pieces.

She leaped down and landed steadily on one of the plaques. She then used her palm to strike the plaque, turning it into dust. A gust of wind blew the dust away.

From now on, dust to dust, ashes to ashes.

Song Siyao's eyes were icy cold as she strode forward. She led her guards into the palace to report, leaving behind the shocked and astonished gazes of the common people.

A short while later, Song Siyao returned to the palace.

All eyes turned to Song Siyao; they noticed she was different from when she went out on missions before.

He reeked of blood and exuded a relaxed aura, yet he was someone people dared not approach.

That was the relief that came after revenge.

However, her hands were now stained with even more blood, and even a single glance from her was enough to send chills down one's spine.

"Your Majesty, all 141 members of the Grand Tutor's household have been executed, and all their property has been confiscated here. Please review it, Your Majesty," Song Siyao reported.

"Wang Fu, put it into the national treasury," Emperor Changlong ordered.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wang Fu led his men to inventory the property and register it in the treasury.

Emperor Changlong's gaze fell upon his ministers, his expression full of warning.

"Gentlemen, this is the end for Su Zheng. He lost his own head and implicated his family. I hope you will all keep your integrity, be honest and upright, and not follow in Su Zheng's footsteps!"

The court officials immediately knelt down and shouted in unison, "Your Majesty's teachings will be remembered! Long live the Emperor!"

A loud drum doesn't need a heavy hammer; Emperor Changlong didn't say much, he just stopped there.

He continued, "Ning'an, lead the troops into the city. I want to reward the army!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Song Siyao went out of the city and came to the military camp. She met Shen Pei and the others and smiled slightly. "The Emperor wants to see everyone. Let's go into the city."

Upon hearing this, Shen Pei and the others knew that the task of bringing down Grand Tutor Su had been successfully completed.

Everyone's faces beamed with joy, and a cheer erupted.

Song Siyao rode her horse, walking at the front of the procession with Shen Pei.

The onlookers on both sides of the street waved, shouted, and cheered at them.

The Zhou dynasty defeated the Yan state.

Moreover, they defeated the Yan state to the point of surrender.

This will be a significant chapter in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and it is worthy of being remembered by the world.

General Jiang, Jiang Hexia, and Huo Ye walked behind Song Siyao, enjoying the people's love and gratitude for them.

The soldiers beamed with joy as they finally returned home in triumph.

Everyone stood below the imperial city, while Emperor Changlong stood atop the city tower.

Song Siyao raised his head and said loudly, "Your Majesty, we have completed our mission, recaptured Fengshadu, and defeated the Yan Kingdom. Please give us your instructions!"

"Soldiers, you have worked hard!" Emperor Changlong said loudly.

"It is our duty to protect our homeland and defend our country. We swear to be loyal to the court to the death and will never back down!"

The soldiers' voices were deafening, shaking the earth, and the people present were filled with passion and cheered.

Emperor Changlong picked up his wine bowl and ordered, "Pour the wine!"

Each soldier held a bowl of wine in his hand.

Emperor Changlong continued, "This first cup of wine is offered to Heaven, to bless my Great Zhou with peace and prosperity year after year."

After he finished speaking, he tossed the wine cup into the air.

All the soldiers threw their wine bowls into the air and shouted in unison, "Homage to Heaven, may our Great Zhou Dynasty be blessed with peace and safety year after year."

Emperor Changlong raised the second bowl of wine, saying, "This second bowl of wine is to honor the heroes. May they rest in peace in the afterlife, and may the people of the Great Zhou remember them forever."

His voice was low and filled with grief. He overturned the wine bowl and poured the wine onto the ground.

The soldiers followed his example, and the wine flowed from the bowls, poured onto the ground, and soaked into the soil, comforting the spirits of the fallen heroes.

Their eyes were filled with regret and sorrow.

They have returned, bringing with them vibrant life and glory.

But those fallen comrades will never come back. Their bones are buried in the green hills, and they can no longer see the scenery of their hometown or embrace their loved ones.

If possible, may there be no more war in the world.

Emperor Changlong picked up the third bowl of wine and pushed it forward, saying, "This third bowl of wine is to all of you soldiers who have returned home in glory. You have worked hard. May you achieve your goals and live the life you desire. I will drink this bowl first!"

He raised the bowl, drank the wine in large gulps, then turned the bowl over, revealing it completely empty.

"Thank you for your great favor, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!" All the soldiers raised their wine bowls and drank the wine in them.

"Wang Fu, reward him!" Emperor Changlong exclaimed excitedly.

He was especially happy today.

They eliminated Grand Tutor Su, a major threat who had been sidelined for many years.

The Great Zhou defeated the Yan Kingdom, and from then on, no one in the Nine Provinces would dare to underestimate the Great Zhou.

As the king of the Great Zhou, he was naturally proud.

This can be described as a double celebration.

All the soldiers were rewarded for their merits, and they received real benefits, filling their hearts with gratitude towards Emperor Changlong.

Looking at the smiling faces of his soldiers, Emperor Changlong felt their loyalty and respect, and his heart was filled with satisfaction.

He continued, "Princess Ning'an, heed my command!"

"Your subject is here," Song Siyao said, bowing slightly.

"Princess Ning'an has rendered meritorious service in leading the troops into battle this time. She is hereby granted the following privileges: she may henceforth carry weapons and freely enter and leave the palace; she will not be required to kneel before me; she is hereby promoted to Princess Youfeng; and she is granted a pardon from death!"

As Emperor Changlong's voice fell, the shouts of the soldiers pierced the sky.

They had previously thought that Emperor Changlong was really going to punish Song Siyao, so they were filled with resentment and anger.

At this moment, Emperor Changlong bestowed a reward upon Song Siyao, which made them even happier than if they themselves had received a reward.

Song Siyao is their god of war, and she deserves this honor.
