Mother Shen was standing by and also spoke to Wu Junrou in surprise, "This is strange. If she was tricked into coming out, she shouldn't have refused when Madam invited her to come. Now Madam just invited her to come and asked for the reason, but she didn't want to come. I don't know what the Prime Minister's Mansion did to her that made her not want to come again. It's really strange."

Wu Junrou narrowed her eyes and said in a deep voice, "Who would have thought that such a good chess piece would be gone just like that? It was originally a good move. In such a short time, it was resolved by this couple. It's really incredible. But since she has left the mansion and is unwilling to tell me the reason, I'm afraid I can't use her anymore in the future."

Mother Shen said slowly to Wu Junrou, "Since this move is out of the question, what are you going to do now, Madam?"

Wu Junrou just said nonchalantly, "Guan Surong was originally sent here by Mr. Bai from the Zhongping Marquis's residence. I sent her to the Prime Minister's residence out of kindness, but who knew she was useless? It was originally a matter of going downhill. But now, I still have a lot of things to do. Since she is useless, let's think of other ways."

Mother Shen was standing by and also said with dissatisfaction, "Who would have thought that Guan Surong would be so disappointing? Madam has been running around everywhere to get her in, but in the end, it was all in vain. If I had known earlier, I would have supported someone new."

"It's not that easy to play chess with the people in that mansion. How many times have our plans failed? Many times, we have suffered ourselves." Wu Junrou sighed and said slowly, "Forget it, there is still a long time to live, let's not worry about the couple for now. The little vixen in our yard is getting pregnant, and the master likes her more and more. I should also think of a way to deal with this little vixen and the baby in her belly."

Mother Shen echoed, "Madam is right. It's not surprising that Song Wanning is difficult to deal with. After all, Song Wanning has a strong foundation and background, and she has a close relationship with the Prime Minister. But who would have thought that this girl in our mansion is just a concubine, and she is not favored in her family. She came to our Yin Mansion. Madam has thought of many ways, but she is still standing firm until now."

"At first I thought it was strange that Song Wanning agreed to take a concubine for Yin Yichen. Now it seems that she has been planning to send Yuan Xian, the little vixen, to our house. Firstly, she wants to disgust me, and secondly, Yuan Xian is a scheming woman and a concubine. I can't sell her out at will. Now she holds the master's heart tightly in her hands. It's hard enough for me to deal with this little vixen, so how can I have more energy to deal with her?"

Mother Shen was also quite helpless, "Madam, you can't just let her go like this, right? This is really too easy for the two of them."

"Let her go?" Wu Junrou sneered. "How can I let her go like this? The two people in the Prime Minister's Mansion have occupied so much of the Yin family's money and live such a luxurious life. Don't dream of letting them go. I will definitely take back all the property that belongs to me. The Yin Mansion is so big now, and it depends on me to support it. Think about how much of my own money my housekeeper has put in over the years to make this mansion more decent. It looks bright and beautiful from the outside, but only we know what's going on inside."

After Wu Junrou finished speaking, she turned her head and glanced at Mother Shen, and continued, "Just wait and see, there will be something interesting to watch in the future. I still don't believe that Song Wanning and Yin Yichen will fall sooner or later. After all, the court and the imperial city are not peaceful now. Look at how prosperous Yin Yichen is now, and we are just waiting for the day when his mansion collapses. Let's just wait and see. By then, all the property of the Prime Minister's Mansion will be in our pockets."

After Wu Junrou finished speaking, she slowly said, "Let's go. I'm tired too. I should think about the things in our house."

Wen Tingbai of the Marquis Zhongping's Mansion had also heard about Guan Surong, but he was not polite at all, so he immediately went to the gate outside the Song Mansion and waited for Guan Surong to come out of the mansion.

After all, he knew exactly what Guan Surong was like in the Song Mansion. She would definitely leave the Song Mansion soon. Wen Tingbai guessed correctly. Not long after she waited at the gate of the Song Mansion, she saw Guan Surong coming out of the gate.

As soon as Guan Surong walked out of the gate, the servant beside Wen Tingbai immediately stepped forward to block Guan Surong's way and said with a smile, "Miss, our Second Master Bai is asking you to sit in the carriage and have a few words with me."

When Guan Surong saw the boy, she just smiled faintly and said, "I still have a lot of things to do now, so why don't I go?"

Seeing this, the servant did not move aside and continued to say to Guan Surong, "Our Second Master will certainly not be able to say a few words, so please go up and talk to him."

Seeing this, Guan Surong was really at a loss as to what to do, so she had to listen to the servant and get on the carriage.

Seeing Guan Surong's appearance, Wen Tingbai immediately asked the question in his heart, "Didn't we agree at that time that you would wait for my signal at any time in the Prime Minister's Mansion? Who knew that you would come out on your own now?"

Guan Surong saw the blaming look on Wen Tingbai's face, and tears welled up in her eyes instantly. "Second Master, what you said really made Surong very sad. Since Surong left the Prime Minister's Mansion without saying anything, there must be a reason."

"What's the reason you're telling me?" Wen Tingbai frowned, but his expression looked better.

"The Prime Minister and his wife both disliked me. They colluded with each other and said that if I didn't come out on my own, they would assign a servant in the Prime Minister's Mansion to marry me. They also said that if I didn't agree, my innocence would be ruined. How could I bear such a great humiliation? Because of this, I had to come out on my own. If not, I don't know what kind of life I would have to endure in the Prime Minister's Mansion."

Guan Surong's words were so miserable and pitiful that Wen Tingbai felt compassion for her. He immediately said to Guan Surong, "If this is the case, then you really can't be blamed for this. I just said something unpleasant, please don't take it to heart. I have seen Song Wanning, a cruel woman. She was indifferent when I and her son Wen Xu went to see her, let alone your cousin."
