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

"Dr. Feng, look at her, she doesn't remember anything, she's definitely a fake. Why lower yourself to protect her? It's not worth it!"

Su Qingshuang threatened Feng Bai, "She is a demon who uses evil magic. You are her disciple, so what are you? If you want to distance yourself from her, you have to prove to everyone that she is a monster."

"Once a teacher, always a teacher. I, Feng Bai, would never do anything to betray my teacher and ancestors!"

Feng Bai said firmly, “Master, when I first became your disciple, I wrote a letter of apprenticeship. Later, you accepted me as your disciple and wrote a letter of gift to me. The letter of gift to me is with me, and the letter of apprenticeship is with you. These two things can prove our master-disciple relationship.”

"Yu Xiang, go back and find Hong Shao. Tell her to look through my old things and see if there's the apprenticeship agreement that Doctor Feng mentioned," Song Siyao instructed.

"Yes, ma'am."

Feng Bai also went back to retrieve the book to be given to his disciple.

Yu Xiang returned to the Zhenbei Marquis's residence and relayed Song Siyao's words to Hong Shao. At the end, she asked, "Hong Shao, you've always been by Miss's side. You should know the most about Miss taking on disciples. Wouldn't it be better to just have you be a witness?"

Hong Shao looked helpless. "What if I told you I didn't know Miss had taken on a disciple?"

"You didn't know either?" Yu Xiang was even more surprised, muttering, "It seems our young lady is indeed no ordinary person."

"Sister Yuxiang, wait here for me, I'll go find this apprenticeship certificate." Hongshao stood up.

"I'll go with you to look for it; the two of us will find it faster," Yu Xiang said.

“No need. You have to go to the palace soon. Have some tea and rest first. I can’t take care of Miss right now. You’ve been accompanying Miss around all the time. It must be very tiring.” Hongshao smiled. “I also want to do what I can for Miss.”

"Okay." Yu Xiang felt that Hong Shao was hiding something from her, but she didn't want to press her for details, since she wasn't entirely Song Siyao's person yet.

As Yu Xiang had predicted, Hong Shao went to find the apprenticeship certificate alone in order to protect an even bigger secret.

She arrived at a courtyard, opened the door to a room, which was covered in dust, as if no one had lived there for a long time. The room was filled with boxes, which were locked, and she had the key.

More than a year ago, she brought these things back from the frontier, but never examined them carefully afterward, originally intending to wait for Song Siyao to regain her memory...

Unexpectedly, Song Siyao's troubles came so quickly, and she hesitated whether to tell Song Siyao those secrets.

Now, only she and the old nanny who used to serve the wife of the Marquis of Zhenbei know this secret, but that nanny was driven out of the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion by the old lady Song and her whereabouts are now unknown.

She searched for a while and finally found the apprenticeship certificate in a small box.

However, there was more than one apprenticeship application...

Hongshao had never seen these apprenticeship agreements before; she had no idea how many secrets her young mistress still held that she was unaware of.

Yu Xiang received the apprenticeship certificate from Hong Shao and rushed to the palace. At the same time, Feng Bai's letter of gift to his disciple also arrived.

"These are the apprenticeship certificate and the letter of gift to the disciple. Please review them, Your Majesty," Feng Bai presented.

Emperor Changlong presented his disciple with a letter, which read: "To my beloved disciple Fengbai, seeing this letter is like seeing you in person, bringing you joy. It has been several months since we last met; has your medical skill improved...?"

The signature is: Nansheng.

Emperor Changlong opened the apprenticeship letter again and read: "Nan Guiyi, I am Feng Bai. I have long admired your medical skills..."

Signed: Feng Bai, who looks forward to becoming your disciple.

"Miss Song, this letter of gift to your disciple is indeed your handwriting. When Physician Feng came to the palace before, he showed me a prescription you wrote a long time ago." Emperor Changlong handed the letter of gift to his disciple to Song Siyao.

Song Siyao immediately recognized her own handwriting. Judging from the ink and the paper, this letter to her disciple had been written several years ago.

"Feng Bai, I'm sorry, your master doesn't remember you. Thank you for remembering your master."

Feng Bai knelt down with a thud. The dignified divine physician, his eyes reddening in front of everyone, choked out, "Master, Master!"

"Alright, get up. You're such a grown man, why are you still crying?" Song Siyao smiled gently. She helped Feng Bai up and patted his shoulder. "As my apprentice, you can't shed tears so easily."

"Disciple obeys." Feng Bai revealed a smile, but it looked more like a grimace.

Although his master didn't remember him, his master was still the same as before, even his tone of voice hadn't changed.

Su Qingshuang watched as Song Siyao and Feng Bai recognized each other, and anger and shock welled up in her heart.

How could Song Siyao, whom she looked down upon, possibly be the world-renowned Ghost Doctor?

That's the Ghost Doctor, a god-like figure. Some people are willing to spend 100,000 gold coins to have him treat their illnesses.

Consort Xian lowered her head and looked down. Consort Jia was really lucky to have been able to befriend the Ghost Doctor. In this deep palace, having a trustworthy doctor could sometimes save one's life.

The Imperial Physician Su was almost bursting with jealousy. Song Siyao was actually a ghost doctor and had even saved Consort Jia. She would definitely be favored by Emperor Changlong in the future, and he felt that his position was threatened.

Shen Pei looked at Song Siyao quietly, his feelings were complicated. The person he had been waiting for was already by his side.

Yan Wei was excited, expectant, and heartbroken. Master, when will you recognize your disciple?

Meng Zhanting stood there, stunned, inwardly grumbling, "God, why are you playing such a joke on me? Do you know what kind of person you've made me lose?"

After complaining about God, he started cursing Song Siyao: "Song Siyao, you're so good at pretending, so hypocritical!"

……

The people on the field had different thoughts, but Emperor Changlong was overjoyed.

"The Ghost Doctor Nan Sheng acts strangely, capable of regenerating bones and bringing the dead back to life. If she so desires, she can snatch ghosts from the clutches of the King of Hell!"

Emperor Changlong watched as Song Siyao recounted the folk tales about the Ghost Doctor, and he laughed heartily, "Marquis Zhenbei is truly remarkable, a loyal servant protecting the country, and he even left me with a prodigy! Ghost Doctor, welcome back."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Siyao felt that the rumor was a bit exaggerated.

"Miss Song, I hope that you will use your medical skills to benefit the Great Zhou in the future, and become a useful person to the Great Zhou, just like your father." Emperor Changlong looked at Song Siyao with fervent eyes.

He always valued the descendants of loyal ministers, especially those who were so talented.

"Your subject obeys the decree!" Song Siyao bowed and accepted the order.

Emperor Changlong's gaze swept over the kneeling crowd, and he asked in a cold voice, "Didn't you all have a lot to say just now? Why aren't you saying anything now?"

After he asked the question and no one dared to answer, he began calling out names, "Academician Su!"

"Your subject is here," said the Imperial Censor Su, his voice trembling with unease.

"You are too old to stay in the Imperial Hospital. Go home and rest properly," Emperor Changlong said coldly.

The Imperial Censor was dismissed from his post. He lay prostrate on the ground, his voice trembling, "Your Majesty, I thank you for your great kindness."

Song Siyao ruined his future, and from then on, they were sworn enemies!

When Consort Xian noticed that Emperor Changlong was looking at her, she quickly said, "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Emperor Changlong still didn't let her off the hook, "Consort Xian, you are easily swayed by others and have a restless mind. Go and copy Buddhist scriptures ten times to calm your mind."

"Your Majesty, I obey." Consort Xian remembered that the last time she was punished was because of Consort Rou, who had been dead for more than ten years.

"Miss Su, you spoke rudely today and disrupted the Empress's birthday banquet. Go back to your residence and reflect on your actions for a month." Emperor Changlong even punished Su Qingshuang.

“Your Majesty…” Su Qingshuang wanted to retort, but was glared at fiercely by Consort Xian, so she quickly changed her words, “Yes, Your Majesty.”

She lowered her head, her eyes filled with cold light. "Song Siyao, because of you, I have lost face today. You just wait!"

"All of you, step back. Miss Song, come with me!" Emperor Changlong ordered.

Song Siyao followed Emperor Changlong to the imperial study. Emperor Changlong sat on the dragon throne and casually asked, "Second Miss Song, aren't you curious why I summoned you here?"

“This humble woman is not curious,” Song Siyao replied.

Emperor Changlong laughed loudly, "Haha..." Then his smile froze instantly, and he asked seriously, "Who exactly are you?"
