Guan Surong now knew that if she went to the Song Mansion, she would have to endure the cold eyes and ridicule of Song Zhan's wife. Song Zhan's new wife was already very dissatisfied with Mrs. Guan in the mansion, not to mention that Guan Surong would also move in.
But now, there is nowhere else to go except to the Song Mansion. When the three of them came to the capital, Guan Surong had so many ambitions, but who could have thought that in just a year or so, they would become like this.
Although Guan Surong felt upset, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk towards the gate of the Song Mansion.
Guan Surong was just thinking about finding a carriage to ride in, but a horse in a carriage in front of her got scared and almost stepped on her. This frightened Guan Surong so much that she turned pale and swallowed twice before standing still in front of the carriage.
After a while, Wen Tingbai came out of the carriage, opened the curtain, and saw Guan Surong's appearance with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He immediately said to Guan Surong, "Miss, are you okay? The horse was frightened and disturbed you."
Seeing this, Guan Surong simply bowed her head and bowed to Wen Tingbai, "Hello, sir. I didn't expect the horse to charge at me, so I was a little frightened. Fortunately, I didn't get hurt, so I'm fine."
Seeing this, Wen Tingbai said in a gentlemanly manner, "Where are you going now, young lady? If you are willing, I can give you a ride."
"Thank you, sir. I am going to the Song Mansion to seek refuge with my relatives and I need to find a carriage." Guan Surong had never seen Wen Tingbai before. Seeing such a modest gentleman, she immediately began to show a shy look, "But please don't bother me, sir. If I get on your carriage, I'm afraid it will damage our reputation."
Wen Tingbai saw this and felt that Guan Surong was a gentle and lovely person, which made him even more eager. However, it was not easy to ask in such a public place, so he just said lightly, "The girl is actually a relative of the Song Mansion. My family also has a lot of connections with the Song Mansion. I just don't know who the girl is in the Song Mansion? We can get to know each other later."
What Wen Tingbai said was right. Not only did he have a connection with the Song family, he also married two women with the surname Song.
Guan Surong had suffered because of her status in the past, and now that she saw Wen Tingbai, she couldn't be so arrogant anymore. She just said in a low voice, "I am the only daughter of Madam Guan, the niece of the old lady of the Weiwu General's Mansion. I am going to the Song Mansion to seek refuge with my relatives."
"I see." Wen Tingbai smiled at Guan Surong, but did not reveal his identity. He just said lightly, "Now I am considered a person of status in the capital. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to Fanghua Lane in the capital to find me. The largest house in Fanghua Lane is my family's property."
When Wen Tingbai said this, he found a carriage for Guan Surong, sent her to the carriage, and then turned around and got on his own carriage.
Seeing this, Clinique, who was beside Guan Surong, said to Guan Surong, "Young lady, you are really good at it. You have just come out of Yan's house and you have already met such a good-looking young man. It seems that this young man has a good impression of you. I am afraid that you will not have to worry about your future."
"That being said, I have been a concubine after all, and it would not be decent if it got out. Which young man would be willing to marry someone like me now?" Guan Surong sighed. She didn't expect that she would play a good hand like this.
But now that I think about it carefully, if it wasn't for Song Wanning's interference, I would have lived a good life long ago. Now Song Wanning is living a luxurious life in the Prime Minister's Mansion, while I have to live under someone else's roof and wander around. Now that I think about it, although I am angry, I can't do anything about it.
Guan Surong sighed in her heart, but she couldn't do anything to Song Wanning. She could only wait for herself to turn over and find another opportunity.
Wen Tingbai on the other side also talked about Guan Surong with his long-time servant. Thinking of Guan Surong's gentle appearance, Wen Tingbai immediately said to the servant beside him, "Go check the details of this girl just now. I wonder what her relationship with the General's Mansion is. At the beginning, the second brother asked me to build a good relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion, but I didn't expect that it would be in vain in the end. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is angry, and Brother Xun is even more angry at me. If this girl has a good relationship with Song Wanning, it will be good for both of us to contact her more in the future."
The servant responded and went to do his work, checking Guan Surong's background for Wen Tingbai.
Wen Tingbai had just returned to the Marquis of Zhongping's mansion when he saw his younger brother Wen Tingxun who had just returned from outside. Wen Tingxun's status in the entire Marquis of Zhongping's mansion had also risen because of his success in front of the prince. Now everyone in the mansion was quite respectful when they saw him.
However, the first and second houses of the Zhongping Marquis's mansion have always been at odds with each other, and Wen Tingcheng of the first house is not biased towards the prince's party, and can't get along with the second house. However, the people of the second house still value the prince, so naturally they will help the prince.
Although Wen Tingxun failed to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion, he still gave the prince a lot of ideas, which was why he got the prince's attention. Because of this, the prince even went ahead to find him a marriage.
This time, even Wen Tingbo's mother, Mrs. Wang, was happy.
When Wen Tingbo saw Wen Tingxun, he also smiled and said, "Second brother, have you just come back from working outside?"
"Well, eldest brother is back too." Wen Tingxun greeted him politely, but his expression did not change. It seemed that he still resented Wen Tingbo for ruining the family's reputation.
Wen Tingbai felt mixed emotions, and he was determined to get through the difficulties on his side and save some face for himself. His eyes were now on Guan Surong. If Guan Surong was useful, he would be able to make his life easier in the future.

Prime Minister's House.
Song Wanning was looking at the account book when she found out that she had a guest at her house. Liu Yuyuan and a few other mothers came to the door in a hurry.
Seeing the sweat on his forehead, Song Wanning asked in a panic, "What happened? Why are you so anxious?"
Liu Yuyuan took a few steps forward, unceremoniously picked up Song Wanning's teapot, poured herself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.
After a while, Liu Yuyuan spoke to Song Wanning, "My family has been under the rule of the prince recently. Who would have thought that the prince would introduce my sister to someone else, saying that Xun, the son of the Marquis of Zhongping, has not married yet and wanted to match them up. My father agreed immediately to please the prince. My sister is so pitiful. She is only sixteen years old now. How can she marry a man like Wen Tingxun?"
