Song Wanning changed back into her own clothes and returned to the pavilion.

Now the Queen Mother and Consort Xian were gone, and only Princess Xiangyu and the other ladies were chatting in the pavilion. Princess Xiangyu was now pretending to be asleep with her eyes closed, and the ladies below were also laughing and playing, much more relaxed than before. After Song Wanning entered the pavilion, several ladies came up to her immediately. The leading lady smiled and asked Song Wanning, "Madam Yin, which cloth shop did you buy the material for the dress you are wearing now? It looks so good on you."

"It's the Shengjing Fabric Shop in Xifang, Beijing. Their materials are very good." Song Wanning responded calmly and neither humbly nor arrogantly, and she didn't seem to be putting on airs.

The lady beside Song Wanning spoke up at this time, wondering, "The material I'm wearing was also bought from that cloth shop, why is the effect so different when I wear it on you?"

Another Shangshu's wife teased, "Hey, don't you see what kind of figure Madam Yin has? What kind of figure do you have?"

Everyone was laughing and joking, but Mrs. Xu and Wu Junrou, who were watching the show, were a little confused.

Today's plan was to embarrass Song Wanning, but for some reason, she has been liked by these ladies instead. It is really unexpected.

Song Wanning usually stays at home and does not have much contact with the wives of officials. Now, because of her second marriage, her reputation was not very good when she married Wen Tingbo. Now that she is married to Yin Yichen, she comes out to attend so many banquets. Now Song Wanning's performance at the banquet is generous and decent. As the prime minister, many people want to curry favor with Yin Yichen.

Seeing that Song Wanning had this kind of temper, the ladies naturally came forward to welcome her. In this way, the ice was broken between Song Wanning and these ladies.

Wu Junrou felt like her nose was about to be crooked by anger, and she sat in the chair without saying a word.

Princess Xiangyu, who was sitting on the upper seat, saw this and felt that the behavior of these ladies was really annoying, but she had no way to stop Song Wanning from interacting with these ladies. She just sat on her chair and waved her hand, forcing a smile and said, "Ladies, you are tired from coming to the Peony Banquet at Dehua Palace today. Now it looks like the weather is getting bad, so you ladies should go back home quickly."

Upon seeing this, all the ladies responded and dispersed out of the palace.

Princess Xiangyu did not leave, Madam Xu did not leave, and Wu Junrou also sat in the chair shyly and did not leave.

After everyone had left, Madam Xu stepped forward to look at Princess Xiangyu and asked in confusion, "Your Highness, we had already made plans for today. I don't know what went wrong and allowed Song Wanning to leave so peacefully?"

Princess Xiangyu was also very angry when she said this, "How should I know? Everything was arranged, but something like this happened. God knows where it went wrong. I am so angry."

Mrs. Xu couldn't figure out what was wrong when she saw this. She just murmured in confusion, "Why is there no reaction when the aphrodisiac is on the clothes? This shouldn't be the case. Could it be that the aphrodisiac is fake?"

"I asked my maid to buy it myself. If something went wrong, it would be a shame." Princess Xiangyu frowned and thought about it, but she couldn't figure out what the problem was. She held her forehead with a headache and said in a deep voice, "Okay, okay, I don't care about these things. Anyway, this opportunity is gone now. If I have any good ideas in the future, I will plan it. Today, I have been a bad person and made wedding clothes for Song Wanning in vain."

Madam Xu and Princess Xiangyu couldn't understand what was going on. They stared at each other for a while, and then Madam Xu and Wu Junrou left.

But Song Wanning, who was walking out of the palace now, was walking with an open mind. Fortunately, today's situation was resolved without suffering much grievance, and she could also win some opportunities to clear her reputation, which was not a loss.

Song Wanning was thinking, and soon she arrived at her own carriage. When Song Wanning was about to get in, she heard a familiar voice, "Mrs. Yin."

Song Wanning turned her head and saw Tang Heng, who had just played with her.

Song Wanning smiled politely and looked at Tang Heng and said slowly, "Master Tang, I wonder what Master Tang is waiting for you here for?"

Tang Heng looked at Song Wanning with a burning gaze, "Today I am fortunate to play a piece with Madam Yin. I was astonished by her beauty. I wonder where Madam Yin learned from to acquire such a skill."

Song Wanning knew that Tang Heng was a true qin lover, so she spoke slowly, "I may disappoint Master Tang. I learned this qin from an ordinary qin master in Bishuitang, not some peerless master. It was only when I had nothing to do that I found some music scores to study carefully, which is how I got my current qin skills."

Song Wanning looked a little embarrassed. Her piano skills were cultivated because she had nothing to do in the Zhongping Marquis's mansion in her previous life and could only play the piano for entertainment. However, these words were not enough to be told to outsiders.

"Madam Yin is truly gifted. If she practices diligently, she will surely become a national player in the future." Tang Heng's eyes were full of admiration. "I just don't know if I will have the opportunity to play other songs with you in the future."

"I have a lot of things to do in the mansion now, and I haven't played the piano for a long time. I'm afraid Master Tang will be disappointed." Song Wanning's words were full of respect, and she said lightly, "If Master Tang has free time in the future, you can visit the Prime Minister's Mansion. There will always be a chance to learn from Master Tang."

Tang Heng was delighted when he heard Song Wanning's words. He immediately looked at Song Wanning and said slowly, "That's great. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely visit the Prime Minister's Mansion."

As soon as Tang Heng finished speaking, Yin Yichen's voice rang in Song Wanning's ears, "Wanning."

Tang Heng and Song Wanning both turned their heads to look, and happened to see Yin Yichen walking towards them from a distance. He was wearing a blue-gray robe with a emerald green jade pendant hanging around his waist. His eyebrows and eyes were picturesque and he was as gentle as jade.

Tang Heng was stunned when he saw Yin Yichen. He was already a handsome man, but he didn't expect that the prime minister of the dynasty was even more outstanding than him. No wonder there was a rumor in the capital that all the girls in the boudoir were dreaming of marrying the prime minister.

While Tang Heng was thinking, Yin Yichen had already walked up to Song Wanning and put his arm around her shoulders. When Song Wanning saw Yin Yichen, her expression immediately softened and she whispered softly, "Why are you here?"

Tang Heng looked at the two of them, and only one word came to his mind: a perfect match.
