A few days later, Wen Tingbai drove a carriage and brought Guan Surong to the Yin Mansion.

Wu Junrou asked Mother Shen beside her to go to the door to pick her up personally, and brought the beautifully dressed Guan Surong into the mansion.

Wu Junrou had finally made all the arrangements. When she looked at Guan Surong's appearance, she immediately laughed out loud and praised her, "I've heard for a long time that Miss Guan is a person who is unique in heaven and earth. Now that I see her, I really understand. What people outside say is true. Such a banished immortal can't be found anywhere."

Seeing this, Guan Surong immediately bowed to Wu Junrou and said, "Thank you for your praise, madam. I am just a poor man, how can I bear such praise from you. If you can avenge me in the future, my life will not be lived in vain."

When Wu Junrou heard Guan Surong's words, she immediately showed some appreciation. After all, she had originally planned to send Guan Surong to the Prime Minister's Mansion to let her think of a way to take revenge. Now that she saw that Guan Surong was so sensible, she didn't have to put in any effort.

Before Guan Surong came, Wen Tingbai told her a lot about the Prime Minister's Mansion and Wu Junrou. Now she knew what Wu Junrou liked to hear, so she naturally said the nice things, "Madam is willing to help Surong, Surong is really touched, such a great favor is beyond return, I am just waiting to repay Madam's kindness by working like a cow and a horse."

When Wu Junrou heard Guan Surong say this, she nodded with satisfaction, "Talking about repaying a favor or not is a matter for the future. Since we are all for one thing, we can't go wrong if we rush towards this goal. Believe me, if it succeeds in the future, the mansion of our Yin Mansion will treat you as our own daughter. I will find a way to compensate you for the unfair treatment you received in the past."

Guan Surong smiled faintly, and just looked at Wu Junrou and said, "In that case, Su Rong would like to thank Madam in advance. If it weren't for Madam, Su Rong doesn't know when she would find an opportunity to avenge herself."

Guan Surong looked so aggrieved and weak, which was exactly what the officials would like. Wu Junrou looked at Guan Surong and said with a smile, "Good girl, since you want to go to the Prime Minister's Mansion now, I understand. But this matter cannot be rushed now. If you go rashly, you will probably be rejected. Just wait for a good opportunity in a few days, and then we can go to the Prime Minister's Mansion together."

Guan Surong naturally agreed to this and immediately moved into Yin's house.

The good opportunity that Wu Junrou mentioned was the gathering of the elders of the Yin family in the capital at the Prime Minister's Mansion, in order to discuss what the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Yin Mansion should do now. Originally, they were one family divided into two families. For so many years, Wu Junrou had been crying in front of the elders, and finally she persuaded them to go to the house to seek justice for her.

In public, Wu Junrou brought Guan Surong to the door. When the time came, Guan Surong cried in front of the clan elders, and I'm afraid Song Wanning would not be able to refuse.

A few days later, a group of more than a dozen elders from the Yin family went to the Prime Minister's Mansion in a grand manner to discuss the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Yin Mansion with Yin Yichen.

Song Wanning only got the news the day before, and knew that Wu Junrou must have prepared for this day for a long time, and it would definitely be difficult to entertain. But she didn't expect that this battle would be more difficult than she imagined.

Yin Yichen and the elders of the Yin family were in the front hall of the Prime Minister's Mansion. A dozen elders sat on two rows of chairs. The maids of the Prime Minister's Mansion were waiting on the side. Wu Junrou was forced by the elders to sit on the main seat of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Wu Junrou stood in front of the chair and shirked responsibility, saying to the elders, "Dear elders, I am not Yi Chen's biological mother. I am afraid it is not in accordance with the rules for me to sit in this position."

The elder beside Wu Junrou spoke up immediately, looked at Wu Junrou and smiled, "Although you are not her biological mother, her aunt raised her for so many years. Even if she has no merits, she has worked hard. If it weren't for your aunt, how could he have passed the imperial examination and reached his current position? I think you can do it."

Yin Yichen, who was sitting over there, had a gloomy face and said nothing. Song Wanning, who was sitting next to Yin Yichen, was also quite worried.

Seeing this, Wu Junrou also sat on the chair with an expression of not being able to shirk her responsibility, and said to the elders with a smile, "After so many years, if it weren't for the help of the elders, Yi Chen wouldn't be here today. I'll sit on this chair for a while now. I know Yi Chen's temper best. If he's unhappy, I'll get up immediately and won't sit for a moment longer."

"Since my aunt has called so many elders of the Yin family to seek justice for you, isn't it just for you to sit in this position and let me support you? If that's the case, why is my aunt pretending here?" Yin Yichen glanced at Wu Junrou with a slightly cold look.

Wu Junrou stood up immediately after hearing this, looking at Yin Yichen with an aggrieved face, then looked at the elders around her and said with a smile, "This kid is still blaming me now. I said that this position cannot be easily taken."

"Yi Chen, you are getting more and more unruly as you get older." The elder sitting next to Wu Junrou spoke up immediately, coldly saying, "This is your aunt who has raised you for more than ten years. She treats you better than your biological mother outside. It's fine if you are not grateful, but how can you be so sarcastic?"

Yin Yichen looked at the elder and sneered, "Aunt who raised me for more than ten years? If it weren't for the current emperor who was grateful for my father's merits after ascending the throne and asked about my whereabouts in the court, my aunt and uncle would have been afraid of being punished by the emperor for what they did. I'm afraid I would have turned to ashes by now. When my aunt and uncle drove me out and let me wander outside, did they send anyone to look for me? Now you are here talking about the kindness of raising me for more than ten years, I'm afraid it's not the case."

After hearing this, Wu Junrou took a handkerchief and wiped her tears, saying, "I knew that the child still misunderstood. Back then, he was just stubborn. He broke his uncle's favorite jade cup and scolded him a few times, so he ran away crying. It was snowing heavily, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye. We sent many people to look for him for several days before we finally found him and took good care of him. Who knew that he would still hold a grudge against me."

Wu Junrou said, her eyes fixed on Yin Yichen, and she spoke slowly, "Yichen, your aunt and uncle were the ones who wronged you when you were a child, but now we are a family after all, and it has become like this, making people in the capital laugh at us. This joke has lasted until today, if you still have the heart, just make peace with your aunt and uncle's family, and we can live a good life as a family in the future."
