The Emperor's heart is won, she sits on the Phoenix Throne! The Divine Physician's Eldest
Chapter 5 First Encounter
When her parents told her that she had been seen naked, Song Yu'er felt embarrassed and angry. She was too ashamed to look at them and wished she could dig a hole in the ground and disappear without daring to utter a sound.
Meng Zhanting's face turned ashen with rage. He pounded the floor and roared, "You madman! You just wait for my letter of divorce!"
Song Siyao had already reached the outside. She didn't have time to argue with these people; she had more important things to do.
At this moment, the doctor whom the second lady had sent to fetch arrived.
The doctor went to the room to set Meng Zhanting's arm, and Song Yu'er followed.
Old Madam Song looked at Second Madam and asked, "Second Madam, what do you think about the marriage between Meng Zhanting and my daughter?"
"Didn't we already reach an agreement just now?" the second lady asked instead of answering.
"You promised to guarantee that you could get Song Siyao to handle the wedding, restore my daughter's reputation, and make my daughter a second wife so that she wouldn't be wronged, but you have no control over Song Siyao at all!" Old Madam Song's attitude was firm.
"Why are you in such a hurry? What's done is done. Do you think I'm going to deny this marriage?" The second old lady said with some dissatisfaction.
"Hmph, do you dare to deny it? If you don't, I'll go out and make a scene, saying that your son Meng Zhanting has defiled my daughter's innocence. Let's see who's afraid of who!" Old Madam Song said fiercely.
The second lady's expression changed. She had invited Minister Song and Madam Song to try and control them, but she never expected to become the one being controlled instead.
What she didn't know was that Old Madam Song was never a kind person. Before, when Song Siyao's mother was alive, with her in charge of the household, Old Madam Song couldn't cause any trouble. Even if there were any minor problems, they were suppressed by Song Siyao's mother, and outsiders had no idea.
This time, the two old ladies underestimated their opponent.
"Madam Song, you ruined my son and your daughter at the same time. I advise you to think twice!" the second madam threatened Madam Song.
Madam Song stood up abruptly, pointing at the second madam, "It was your son who ruined my daughter! Your son is shameless! He took advantage of my daughter's youth and ignorance, forced her, and defiled her purity. Such a person should be sent to jail!"
"You're talking nonsense..."
Old Madam Song interrupted Second Madam Song and continued her tirade, “What did you promise when your General’s Mansion married Song Siyao? Even if she’s stupid for the rest of her life, you would never take a concubine. You’re so ungrateful! You bullied Song Siyao and now you want to bully my Yu’er? No way! If we can’t have a good life, you can’t have one either! I’ll let the whole world know your hypocritical true colors!”
She brought up Song Siyao not to vent her anger, but purely to scold the two old ladies.
The second old lady turned pale from the scolding, and couldn't utter a single word while pointing at Old Madam Song. She fainted from anger.
"Madam!" Green Pepper shouted, "Someone come quick! The old lady has fainted!"
Regardless of whether the Second Madam lived or died, Old Madam Song ordered her maid, "Go and call the Third Miss back to the manor!"
As soon as she stood up, Vice Minister Song followed her.
A short while later, Song Yu'er also caught up.
"Mother, did you make the Second Madam faint?" Song Yu'er asked.
"What? You're already defending that old woman before you've even married into the family?" Old Madam Song said unhappily.
“Mother, what are you saying? You are my own mother. I used to treat her with some respect because of my brother-in-law, but today I have seen her true colors and I will never give her a kind look again!” Song Yu’er said.
Hearing this, Madam Song's expression softened a bit. She looked at Song Yu'er and said, "Yu'er, everyone knows about your affair with Meng Zhanting now. You have no other good place to go. If you're going to marry, be the principal wife. Being a secondary wife only sounds nice; it's no different from being a concubine."
Song Siyao's mother has passed away, so she can only vent all her hatred for her mother on Song Siyao.
"Mother, that's what I think too." Song Yu'er said with a happy expression.
If she becomes Meng Zhanting's legal wife, then Song Siyao will be divorced. A divorced person cannot get back their dowry, so she and Meng Zhanting can live a carefree life with Song Siyao's dowry.
Song Siyao's dowry was far too much, making her extremely envious!
While listening to their conversation, Vice Minister Song was also calculating how he could use Meng Zhanting to get promoted.
The couple did not utter a single word of blame or reprimand for Song Yu'er and Meng Zhanting being caught in the act of adultery. With parents like these, it's no wonder that Song Yu'er would do something so shameless.
However, Song Yu'er's scheme was destined to fail.
Song Siyao was also somewhat shocked when she saw the dowry list handed over by Hongshao.
"This dowry is too much!"
Gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy and paintings by famous artists, silk fabrics, fertile fields and shops...
His wealth rivals that of half the capital!
“Miss, this dowry is not entirely from the Marquis, his wife, and their son; part of it was earned by you yourself,” Hongshao explained.
"I earned it myself?" Song Siyao was a little confused. The original owner of this body had the mental capacity of a three-year-old, was blind and deaf. How could she earn her own dowry?
“Yes, Miss.” Hong Shao looked at Song Siyao and thought to herself that her young lady seemed to have no memory of the past.
Song Siyao didn't delve into it. "Hongshao, let's check the dowry list."
“Miss, I have records.” Hongshao handed Song Siyao another ledger. “This records the time, amount, purpose, and signatures of the borrowers each time the General’s Mansion borrowed your dowry.”
Song Siyao glanced at the ledger a few times and showed an appreciative look. "Well done. With this ledger, it will be much easier for us to get our dowry back."
“Miss, but we are now outnumbered and powerless. Do you and your servant think you can get your dowry back? A divorce requires the support of the bride’s family. Now we have no one to support us. If the General’s Mansion forcibly divorces us, we will not be able to take anything with us.”
The Zhenbei Marquis's residence housed two families: the eldest, Song, was the Minister of Works, and the second, the Marquis of Zhenbei. They had not separated their households.
Now, only Song Siyao remains from the Zhenbei Marquis's branch of the family. After the incident with Song Yu'er, the eldest branch will definitely not help Song Siyao.
Song Siyao knew that Hongshao's concerns were not unfounded, but she had her own way of dealing with it.
"Don't worry, just rest here. I'll go write a letter."
Just as Song Siyao finished writing the letter, Hongshao came in to report, "Miss, Miss Yuxiang has arrived."
"Fish-fragrant?" Song Siyao didn't recognize it.
“Miss Yu Xiang is the personal maid of the Lady of Ding’an Marquis, and she is very capable in both inside and outside the household,” Hong Shao explained.
As Song Siyao walked out of the room, Yu Xiang greeted her with a bow, "This servant Yu Xiang greets Miss."
His movements were crisp and clean, yet steady and graceful.
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yu Xiang." Song Siyao gently touched Yu Xiang's arm, accepting only half a bow from her.
Seeing Song Siyao's actions, Yu Xiang felt even more respect for him.
"Miss, my mistress sent me here to do this. Please feel free to give me any instructions."
"Then I'll trouble Miss Yu Xiang to deliver this letter for me." Song Siyao handed the letter to Yu Xiang and gave her the address to send it to.
"Yes, ma'am."
Yu Xiang left with the letter, and Song Siyao also left the general's mansion.
In less than half an hour, Song Siyao stood at the entrance of Yi Tianxia.
Yi Tianxia is the largest medical clinic in the capital.
The medicinal herbs inside Song Siyao's Soul-Capturing Bracelet are currently unable to grow; she came here to buy medicinal herbs.
She continued walking towards the Medical World, and when she looked up, she saw a guard pushing a man out of the Medical World.
The man was dressed in purple, with striking features and an air of nobility about him.
Even though he was in a wheelchair, his extraordinary charisma could not be concealed.
This handsome man of noble birth had one unique quality: upon closer inspection, his icy, sharp eyes revealed a hint of fragility.
You would never notice it unless you looked closely.
Based on her memory, she knew that this person was Shen Pei, the seventh son of the current emperor, also known as the Prince Ling, who was awe-inspiring throughout the world.
At this moment, Shen Pei spoke up, "Divine Physician Feng, please inform me immediately if you have any news about your master."
The divine physician, dressed in a moon-white robe, stood beside the man, cupping his hands in greeting. "Yes, Your Highness."
Hearing their conversation, Song Siyao's gaze fell on Shen Pei's legs, and she slowly spoke...
