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

The next day, dawn.

Yu Xiang opened the door of the milk tea shop and began business.

Wei Xin was ordered by Shen Pei to deliver a book to the Marquis of Zhenbei's residence. Song Siyao picked up the book and flipped through it. Once she finished reading a book, she had read it all. She had a photographic memory.

At this moment, Cang Yue entered, "Sect Master, there is a letter for you."

Song Siyao unfolded the letter and saw that it read: "1:15 PM, Wujiang Ferry."

She asked Cang Yue, "Who delivered the letter?"

“It’s just a little kid. I asked him, and he said someone gave him candy and asked him to deliver a message,” Cang Yue replied.

Song Siyao folded the letter and said, "Someone has asked me to meet them. You'll have to come with me then."

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

At the appointed time, Song Siyao brought Cang Yue to Wujiang Ferry.

Upon arriving at the room door, Cang Yue knocked, and Su Yizhou opened the door.

Song Siyao stepped into the house, and Cang Yue was about to follow, but Su Yizhou reached out to stop him and reminded him, "We don't need to go in while they're talking."

Cang Yue remained unmoved, his face cold.

Song Siyao turned around, looked at Cang Yue, and said, "You wait outside."

"Yes." Cang Yue obeyed the order and stepped back.

"Miss Song, you didn't expect it to be me, did you?" Grand Tutor Su looked at Song Siyao, trying to see through her.

Song Siyao's eyes were clear, like a stream whose bottom could be seen at a glance, clean and empty.

But, how is it possible?

Anyone who dares to challenge him is full of scheming and cunning.

Song Siyao met Su Taifu's scrutiny directly, and instead of answering, asked, "Grand Tutor, are you pretending to be mysterious because you think you can scare me?"

Wujiang Ferry was her territory. When she received the letter, she ordered Cang Yue to investigate. How could she not know that the person who wanted to see her was Grand Tutor Su?

Grand Tutor Su's expression was gentle, but his tone carried the sharpness of a superior, "It's obvious that Miss Song was frightened, going out in broad daylight with guards."

"Has Your Excellency the Grand Tutor ever heard the saying?" Song Si asked calmly.

Grand Tutor Su smiled and said, "Please speak, Miss Song."

"Besides the sun in the sky, the most unbearable thing to look directly at in this world is the human heart." A cold smile appeared on Song Siyao's face. "When you are gazing into the abyss, the abyss is also gazing into you, and even more so, swallowing you up."

Su Taifu kept staring into Song Siyao's eyes. In that instant, he felt that there was a strange and terrifying power in Song Siyao's eyes, a power that was pulling him hard, as if to drag him into an endless abyss.

He abruptly looked away, leaned back, and took a deep breath.

When he looked at Song Siyao again, he found that Song Siyao's gaze was still bright and pure, as if it had just been his imagination.

But the coldness on his back didn't lie to him.

Since he became Grand Tutor, nothing and no one has been able to frighten him.

Song Siyao is clearly just a young girl, so where does she get such a strong aura?

Grand Tutor Su, being a man of experience, let out a long sigh of relief, quickly calming down, his eyes filled with probing, "Does Miss Song mean that you are the Abyss? And that you want to devour this old man?"

Song Siyao smiled lightly, her tone nonchalant, leaving Su Taifu puzzled.

"Grand Tutor, you are joking. I am a human being, how could I be an abyss?"

Grand Tutor Su stared at Song Siyao for a long time before bursting into laughter. “Miss Song is right. I was overthinking it. You are clearly a person, how could you be the abyss?”

He meant that Song Siyao was just a person, a very ordinary person, and that he had overestimated her.

What he didn't notice was that he, who was usually calm and composed, was completely out of control today in front of Song Siyao, sometimes breaking out in a cold sweat and sometimes laughing out loud.

And what did Song Siyao do? She only said a few words.

Song Siyao sat opposite Su Taifu, smiling knowingly. She watched Su Taifu quietly, like an ant trapped in a glass bottle, able to see the outside but unable to find a way out.

Grand Tutor Su stopped smiling and began to get to the point, "Miss Song, I specially chose this restaurant. You and Prince Ling often come here, so you must really like the food here."

He was reminding Song Siyao that he knew her inside and out.

"Grand Tutor invited me here today just to have a meal?" Song Siyao asked.

"Miss Song is so intelligent, why don't you guess my purpose?" Grand Tutor Su said meaningfully.

"What the Grand Tutor is trying to say is that if I behave well, you will guarantee my admission to the academy regardless of my assessment results; otherwise, even if I get first place, I will not be able to enter the academy."

Song Siyao bluntly revealed Su Taifu's schemes.

Grand Tutor Su raised an eyebrow, showing no shame at having his secret exposed, and said as if it were the most natural thing in the world, “Miss Song, to be honest, I admire you, but you said something wrong.”

He paused, then continued, "You don't have a chance to get first place."

"There's a saying that goes, 'If you offend Grand Tutor Su, you won't live past noon tomorrow.' The Grand Tutor's ability to control everything is indeed well-deserved." Song Siyao's words seemed like a compliment, but were actually sarcastic.

Grand Tutor Su secretly enjoyed the rumors circulating in the streets, but on the surface he pretended to be angry. "Those are just rumors spread by the common people. It's just that the Emperor respects me and has granted me this position. I am in this position and have to do my job. Sometimes, for the sake of official business, I have to use some means. Some people are afraid of me, so they make up stories about me."

"So, I am also within the scope of Grand Tutor's official duties?" Song Siyao went straight to Grand Tutor Su's heart, leaving him no room for beating around the bush.

Su Taifu retorted to Song Siyao, "Miss Song's understanding is correct."

"Since that's the case, then let's wait and see. I also want to see what Grand Tutor's methods are like. Grand Tutor, please don't disappoint me." Song Siyao's eyes were filled with provocation and arrogance.

"It's good for young people to have backbone, but don't be overconfident."

Su Taifu's voice turned cold as he warned Song Siyao.

“There’s nothing I can do, I’m naturally confident and don’t want to change.” Song Siyao laughed unrestrainedly.

Grand Tutor Su, intending to deflate Song Siyao's arrogance, asked, "Does Miss Song know how to play chess?"

"I know a little bit," Song Siyao said.

"They say the chessboard is like a battlefield. Miss Song, how about playing a game with this old man?"

"To accompany you."

Grand Tutor Su ordered someone to bring a chessboard, and Song Siyao said, "Grand Tutor, you are old, you shall play the black pieces."

"Youth is wonderful; a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger, and ignorance is bliss," Su Taifu said sarcastically, picking up a black piece and placing it on the plate.

Before the time it takes to drink a cup of tea is up, Song Siyao stood up, placed the white piece in his hand into the plate, and said to Grand Tutor Su, "Grand Tutor, it's over. The next game will be over, and we'll see who wins."

She finished speaking and left the room.

When Su Yizhou saw her come out, he hurriedly went into the house and saw Su Taifu staring at the chessboard. He then spat a mouthful of blood onto the chessboard.

"Father!"

Su Yizhou yelled and pounced over.
