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

The main gate of the Marquis of Zhenbei's residence.

When Shen Pei arrived with his men, Jiang Hexia was still waiting at the door.

"Your Highness, Physician Feng has been inside for quite some time now, and he hasn't opened the door yet. I heard several screams coming from inside, and I don't know what's going on."

Hearing Jiang Hexia's words, Shen Pei's expression turned even colder, and he directly ordered, "Break down the door!"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Wei Xin led his men in a fierce assault, and soon the gate was forced open.

This is the scene that Shen Pei saw when he appeared in the front hall.

Song Yu'er was lying on the ground, writing something diligently. Large beads of sweat streamed down her forehead, but she didn't even bother to wipe them away.

Old Madam Song, her clothes disheveled, knelt and prostrated herself beside Song Yu'er, guarding her.

Vice Minister Song knelt beside him, glaring at Song Siyao with his eyes practically popping out of their sockets.

Song Wenwu was crawling forward desperately, heading towards Song Siyao. His eyes were filled with hatred; he was going to kill Song Siyao.

The old lady sat beside her, completely dazed, as if she had lost her soul.

There were also more than a dozen men in black scattered there, all seriously injured.

The servants in the manor were either injured or kept their distance.

As for Song Siyao, she sat in a chair with her legs crossed, with Hongshao and Yuxiang by her side, showing no sign of being in danger.

She's more like a mountain bandit king, carefree and cheerful; anyone who bumps into her is in danger.

"Your Highness, I really heard the sounds of weapons clashing inside, and quite a few of them, but why is it different from what I expected?"

Jiang Hexia was completely bewildered. Could all this mess and subjugation be Song Siyao's doing?

"I know you are not lying. Thank you for bringing the news. I owe you a favor."

When Shen Pei heard from the medicine boy that Song Siyao was in danger, he rushed over without stopping.

Seeing that Song Siyao was safe and sound, the tension in his heart instantly eased.

"Your Highness is too kind. I should be thanking you for saving Sister Song."

After Jiang Hexia finished speaking, she ran towards Song Siyao, "Sister Song."

"Xiao Hexia, you're here," Song Siyao said. "Wait here for a bit, I'll come and play with you after I finish dealing with my family matters."

"Sister Song, the Prince has arrived too." Jiang Hexia looked around. "Dr. Feng came in a while ago, why don't I see him?"

"Have you seen enough? If you have, get down here!" Song Siyao shouted.

Feng Bai nimbly flew down from the rooftop, saying, "Disciple greets Master."

Just then, Shen Pei arrived in front of Song Siyao.

"Greetings, Your Highness." Feng Bai bowed to Shen Pei.

"Your Highness, what brings you here?" Song Siyao asked, somewhat surprised.

"It was Miss Jiang who went to find the disciple, and the disciple then told the Prince," Feng Bai answered for Shen Pei.

Shen Pei looked at Song Siyao, his eyes filled with undisguised worry, "Such a big thing happened, and you didn't even tell me?"

"It's a small matter, I can handle it myself," Song Siyao said with a faint smile.

Jiang Hexia added, "Your Highness, even if Sister Song wanted to tell you, she couldn't. The gates were closed when we arrived."

“Yes, Your Highness, my young lady has been trapped and cannot get away,” Yu Xiang explained.

Looking at the tragic scene before him, Shen Pei already understood the general outline of what had happened.

If Song Siyao had lost today, then she would be the one kneeling on the ground right now, covered in bruises.

"Your Highness, this humble official has come to pay his respects. Your Highness, you must do justice for us!"

Song Shilang had already stood up. He walked up to Shen Pei and knelt down again with a thud.

"Your Highness, you must stand up for us! Song Siyao is going too far! Look what she did to us!" Song Yu'er guessed that Shen Pei had come to support Song Siyao.

However, despite Song Siyao's stunning beauty, such a fierce woman is not attractive to men.

Men, well, they all like delicate and charming women.

As she spoke, she deliberately brushed a stray hair behind her ear, a gesture that appeared as gentle as could be.

She decided to give it a try, just in case Shen Pei really helped them. However, Shen Pei's words shattered all her illusions.

"Do I look like I've come to stand up for you?"

Song Yu'er was so angry she almost spat out blood, but she still wouldn't give up. "Your Highness, don't be fooled by Song Siyao's appearance. She's a complete wicked woman. Even after being kicked out of the General's Mansion, she still has her eyes on her ex-husband. She's a ruthless killer..."

"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Shen Pei interrupted Song Yu'er, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

Once Song Yu'er was certain that Shen Pei wouldn't help them, she gave up completely and sneered, "So Prince Ling is also a person who abuses his power for personal gain. Aren't you afraid that if word gets out, it will ruin your reputation?"

"For slandering me, give him ten strokes of the cane! Wei Xin, drag him away and carry out the punishment immediately!" Shen Pei's voice was icy.

"Yes, Your Highness." Wei Xin stepped forward and pulled Song Yu'er.

Song Yu'er hurriedly begged for mercy, "Your Highness, spare my life! I know I was wrong, Your Highness..."

Wei Xin directly pressed Song Yu'er's pressure points and quickly dragged her away.

"Your Highness, my daughter is young and ignorant, please forgive her." Vice Minister Song pleaded on behalf of Song Yu'er.

Shen Pei didn't even glance at Minister Song, and gently asked Song Siyao, "Have you obtained all the evidence?"

Song Si nodded and handed the evidence of their crimes to Shen Pei.

Shen Pei took it and glanced at it briefly, his eyes instantly turning icy cold.

"Is this how you plotted to murder the orphan of a hero?"

Minister Song and his wife were too frightened to reply.

"Guards, take these confessions and take all these people away to the yamen."

At Shen Pei's command, the guards he brought stepped forward and took away Old Madam Song, Granny He, and all the assassins.

Minister Song, Song Wenwu, and the old lady were unaware of what happened today; they were kept behind.

Song Siyao looked at Minister Song and said, "Lord Song, I give you three days to move out of the Zhenbei Marquis's residence!"

"Why should I? Song Siyao, what more do you want after all this?" Minister Song questioned.

"We're splitting up! From now on, the Zhenbei Marquis's residence is my home. You, all of you, get out of here!" Song Siyao's voice was as cold as ice.

"I do not agree to the division of the family. Your grandfather said when he was alive that the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion would never allow the division of the family. If you dare to divide the family, it would be a great disrespect to your grandfather and an act of filial impiety!" The old lady spoke up, and she became anxious upon hearing about the division of the family.

“My home doesn’t need your permission, much less my grandfather’s.” Song Siyao said firmly.

"You!" The old lady was so angry that she couldn't catch her breath. The maid quickly patted her back to soothe her.

"Today, I, the King, hereby decide that Miss Song and Minister Song's family shall separate." Shen Pei looked at Minister Song, "Minister Song, if you feel this is unfair, you can go and invite someone you trust."

Song Shilang was somewhat helpless. With the family temporarily separated, where could he find someone to help him?

Moreover, if he goes to find someone now, all the scandals in the manor today will definitely be exposed, and he doesn't want outsiders to know what happened here today.

"I can't find anyone. I'm in a mess today. Let's talk about this another day."

Vice Minister Song attempted to stall for time.

"Do you think I'm discussing this with you?" Song Siyao said coldly.

Vice Minister Song did not respond.

Song Siyao continued, "After my father and brothers sacrificed their lives, the imperial court provided them with a pension every year. You must return every single penny of this money to me."

“After my mother passed away, return everything you took from us. Don’t try to deny it. I have all the records.”

“This mansion was originally bought by my father. Later, he made meritorious contributions, and the emperor bestowed houses upon him. After he expanded it, it became the current Zhenbei Marquis's mansion. Therefore, the house is mine.”

"The properties under the name of the Marquis of Zhenbei have always been separate, and the income has also been separate, so there's nothing to separate them."

"I want to split the money in the public accounts in half."

"These are my demands. If you agree, I'll give you three days to find a new place to stay. Otherwise, I'll throw your things out right now! You'll get nothing!"
