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

Chapter 255 He will always be the man you can't have.

“How could it be him? I saw him when the fire started. The fire was so fierce that he couldn’t leave the mountain village.”

The third brother couldn't believe it. He asked in a cold voice, "Have you searched every part of the mountain stronghold?"

"We've already contacted them, Third Master."

"What about outside the stronghold? Have you searched those woods and other places?" The third brother's face grew increasingly grim.

“No, those aren’t there,” the subordinate replied.

“He couldn’t possibly run down there,” Song Siyao said.

The third brother looked at Song Siyao with a puzzled expression, "Why?"

“It’s human instinct,” Song Siyao explained. “The fire was so fierce at the time, going downhill would have meant certain death. Staying in the mountain stronghold meant certain death, and going downhill offered no chance of survival either. Why would he go to all that trouble to go downhill?”

The third brother didn't say anything.

Song Siyao continued, "Third Master, it's time to go. Once the truth comes out, we'll know where your First Master went."

"I'll go with you." The third brother didn't hesitate any longer.

Three days later.

When the entire capital thought that Song Siyao and Shen Pei had perished in the fire, the two of them appeared at the city gate with their men.

In the city, a grand mansion.

"What did you say? Song Siyao is back alive?"

"Yes."

"How did you guarantee me this? You said Song Siyao would definitely die this time! And what happened?"

"You deserve to die!"

"You do deserve to die!"

……

Prime Minister's House.

Jiang Yu's eyes were red and swollen from crying.

Upon hearing the news that Song Siyao and Shen Pei had perished in the fire, her feelings were extremely complicated.

Song Siyao is dead, and she wishes she could set off firecrackers to celebrate.

However, Shen Pei also died.

So far, Shen Pei is the only man she has ever been attracted to.

After Shen Pei's legs became crippled, she did indeed give up on him.

But she didn't think she had done anything wrong.

People like to pursue perfect things and people. In the past, when Shen Pei was disabled and no longer perfect, she gave up on him.

Now that Shen Pei's legs have healed, she sees no one in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty but Shen Pei as perfect, and only Shen Pei can catch her eye.

Such a perfect man has disappeared from this world. She is so sorry that she never won his heart.

"Miss, the Prince is back! The Prince is back alive!" a maidservant came in and told Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu burst into tears of joy, "Really?"

"Of course it's true, everyone's gone to see it," the maid said.

Jiang Yu suppressed her joy, "Where is Princess Youfeng?"

"They'll return alive..."

"roll!"

Before the maid could finish speaking, Jiang Yu sneered and overturned the tea set in front of her.

The extreme emotional swings she experienced in a short period of time nearly drove her to a breakdown.

"Song Siyao, how can you be so lucky? God, since you gave birth to me, why did you also give birth to Song Siyao?"

Jiang Yu roared, her face full of resentment. As she laughed, her face began to contort, and her eyes turned evil and eerie.

royal palace.

"Your Majesty, Princess Youfeng and the Prince have returned," a guard reported as he entered.

"What did you say? Say it again!" Emperor Changlong had already heard the guard's report clearly.

But he couldn't believe it.

The wounded soldiers returned very slowly; Emperor Changlong only received the news last night.

In just one night, his temples had turned white.

The people he sent out were still on their way, and he thought he would never see Song Siyao and Shen Pei again in his life.

This unexpected surprise instantly brought him back to life.

"Your Majesty, Princess Youfeng and the Prince have returned; they are already at the city gate," the guard reported again.

"Excellent, wonderful! I will go out to greet them personally!" Emperor Changlong was overjoyed. "Wang Fu, help me change my clothes!"

When Emperor Changlong arrived at the palace gate, Song Siyao and Shen Pei also arrived.

"Youfeng greets Your Majesty!"

"My son has met my father!"

Song Siyao and Shen Pei bowed to Emperor Changlong in unison.

Kneeling behind the two were living soldiers and bandits from Yokoyama.

Further on, there were charred skeletons, the remains of soldiers who had died in the bandit suppression operation.

They were covered with white sheets...
