Wen Tingbai was standing beside the carriage, half-believing and half-doubting, and was about to lift the curtain to take a look.

Song Wanning signaled Yi Chen in a very low voice, "Help me."

Just as Wen Tingbai was about to take action, he heard a man's voice coming from the carriage, "Zuo Sijian is free now, so he has time to come to the street and look at any carriage he sees."

Yin Yichen's voice has always been very unique among court officials. It is deep yet a bit cold. Wen Tingbo knew who this person was after just one sentence.

Yin Yichen was always generous in mocking the court officials. Many officials of the court had been mocked by Yin Yichen, and Wen Tingbai could never forget this voice.

"Cheng..."

Wen Tingbai was about to say hello to Yin Yichen, but he heard Yin Yichen say, "If you have nothing to do on weekdays, just go and help your father sort out the books of the Ministry of Personnel. It will save him from having to sort out the books with so many mistakes and omissions for several months, and he still has time to wander around the streets."

Yin Yichen is now a very popular person in the court. Young and energetic, but also knows how to control his position, the Prime Minister Yin has a lot of people wanting to curry favor with him. Unfortunately, he has never liked to give face to others, and has made many enemies in the court.

"Yes, I'll go right away." Wen Tingbai felt ashamed now. His father's official booklet had been impeached by Yin Yichen several times in the court, and now he was mocked here. Wen Tingbai didn't dare to provoke Yin Yichen again, let alone lift the curtain to find out what was going on. He turned around and quickly left the carriage and stood aside.

He stood beside the carriage and frowned, looking at it in front of him, wondering, "It's strange, why is Yin Yichen in the carriage of the general's mansion.

The servant next to Wen Tingbai was sharp-eyed. He immediately pointed to the carriage running towards him and said, "Second Master, is that the carriage of the Second Madam?"

"Damn it." Wen Tingbai knew that he had seen it wrong, and immediately followed the people behind him to chase after him.

Song Wanning recalled that when she had a reunion dinner at the Marquis' Mansion last time, Wen Xian, the father of Wen Tingbo, who was also Song Wanning's father-in-law, mentioned the prime minister Yin Yichen in front of the whole family. At that time, she was so angry that she hated Yin Yichen for not giving her any face, and she hated her son for not living up to expectations.

The prime minister of the dynasty was only one character different from Yi Chen. Yi Chen's style of doing things was indeed not like that of a merchant, but rather like that of an outstanding talent from a noble family.

After the people walked away, Song Wanning said to Yin Yichen, "Thank you for today..."

Song Wanning looked at the person in front of her and said directly, "Thank you very much, Boss Yin, for today. If you need my help in the future, I will definitely help you."

Yin Yichen raised his eyebrows, not thinking about hiding it from Song Wanning, and just said, "Is the Second Madam playing hide-and-seek with the Second Master now?"

Song Wanning was a little surprised. Yin Yichen didn't give any face to Wen Tingbo in front of her, but he was willing to call Wen Tingbo "Second Master" in front of her. It seemed strange now.

Seeing that Yin Yichen had helped him, Song Wanning did not hesitate to explain, "The couple is not getting along, and they are planning to divorce."

Yin Yichen chuckled and said slowly, "General Song is now in the emperor's favor, but the Marquis' Mansion is getting worse and worse. I'm afraid the Marquis' Mansion is unwilling to let go of you, a big tree."

Song Wanning sighed in her heart. Yin Yichen became the prime minister at the age of twenty. His eyes were vicious. "I don't want to marry into the Wen family. Even if we have to go to court, we must divorce."

"Then wait for good news from Miss Song." After Yin Yichen said this, he leaned back in the carriage and closed his eyes. This was an order to expel him.

"Thank you." Song Wanning thanked her and got off the carriage in small steps.

Song Wanning walked around and finally saw the colorful bird on another street.

Cai Que was always smart. When she saw Song Wanning, she told her about the danger just now. "The Second Master saw my carriage and chased after me. I was really scared. I thought of leading him away and circling around him twice so that he couldn't find me before coming back."

Song Wanning smiled and patted Caique on the shoulder, "How smart."

Cai Que still felt frightened when she thought about what happened just now, and she just asked, "Miss, are we going back now?"

"No, since they have all left, they will probably not come back." Song Wanning whispered, "I can't come out here in vain. I want to meet the owner of the rouge shop and see who he is. How dare he play tricks under my nose?"

Caique whispered, "Miss, that's what you said. That servant will go with you."

Song Wanning shook her head and said, "No need, I'll go, you wait here for me, too many people will attract more attention."

Song Wanning arranged for Caique and turned back to the rouge shop.

The women who were selling goods in the Rouge Shop were all easy-going women. When they saw Song Wanning, they thought she was a customer and went straight up to her and asked, "Young lady, are you here to buy rouge? We just happened to have some new goods in our shop. Would you like to take a look?"

Song Wanning stood in the shop, "Call your shopkeeper over, I have something to say."

"Miss, please wait a moment." The woman turned and went upstairs, and soon called the head of the family down.

Song Wanning had never seen this shopkeeper before, but she heard that he was hired directly from a shop outside to manage things. When the shopkeeper saw Song Wanning wearing a veil, he was puzzled, but still asked, "Miss, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"Are you the owner of this shop?" Song Wanning said calmly, looking at the owner through the veil.

"Exactly."

"I'm the owner of this shop. I'm free today so I came to see how the shop is doing." Song Wanning said in a deep voice, "Please show me the account book, boss."

The shopkeeper frowned and said, "The account books are copied every month and sent to the boss. How can he come to check the accounts in person?"

Song Wanning waved the deed in her hand in front of the shopkeeper and said, "It's a genuine deed, just present it to me."

"Yes, yes, yes..." The shopkeeper dared not doubt it after seeing the land deed and went upstairs to meet Song Wanning.

The shopkeeper placed the account book in front of Song Wanning and poured her a pot of tea.

Song Wanning looked at the account book in front of her, opened it and looked through it. She put the opened account book on the table, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip of tea.

Seeing that Song Wanning didn't say anything, the shopkeeper glanced at the open account book, feeling a little anxious. He immediately looked at Song Wanning and said, "Boss, do you see something wrong with the previous account book? The price of spices has increased recently. The materials we use in our shop are all first-class, so the cost is a bit higher. I hope you can understand."

Song Wanning raised her eyes to look at the shopkeeper's flattering face, and just chuckled and said, "Really?"
