"Does Zuo Sijian really think that my decision can be changed based on your one-sided words?" Yin Yichen smiled, but it made people feel chilled to the bone. "I might as well tell you that now in the Zhongping Marquis's Mansion, there are more than just the old lady who lends money at interest. If I do my job impartially, I'm afraid your Zhongping Marquis's Mansion can't afford it."

When Yin Yichen said this, Mrs. Wang, who had always been a vegetarian and a Buddhist, panicked and hurried forward to smooth things over. "Prime Minister, my son was reckless. Please forgive him this time. He will definitely change his ways."

Wen Tingbai's face was now ashen, and he stood in the hall with his fists clenched, not saying a word.

Yin Yichen sat quietly in the chair and stopped talking. Wen Xian, who was standing beside him, had already broken out in cold sweat on his back. "Prime Minister... Prime Minister, I was really wrong in this matter. I beg you to forgive me this time. I will definitely discipline him when I come back."

"Beyond the law is nothing but human feelings." Yin Yichen picked up the teacup on the table, rubbed it, took a sip of tea, and smiled faintly, "This matter is not my business. I am not so idle now. I have to take care of everything. You guys continue."

Wen Xian was blushing on the side. Yin Yichen said that he didn't have time to meddle in other people's business, but now he was sitting in the hall as if he had nails on his butt and was unwilling to get up and watch the fun.

Mrs. Wang now just wanted to end the matter quickly and send this plague god away. She had no time to fight for her son. She said bluntly, "Since the two children are not in love, we should write a divorce letter in court and part ways. We have nothing to do with marriage."

After hearing what Madam Wang said, Wen Xian was enlightened and said quickly, "Quick, quick, bring paper and pen to write the divorce agreement and sign your name."

Everyone didn't expect that Yin Yichen, who had finally shut up, spoke again. He looked at Wen Xian and said, "Since we are going to divorce, how should the three thousand taels of silver that the Marquis' Mansion owes to the General's Mansion be settled?"

"This..." Wen Xian was stunned where he stood.

Mrs. Wang, who was standing by, saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "The general just said that if we want to divorce now, we don't want the three thousand taels of silver."

"Wait a minute." Song Lan, who was beside Song Jing, stood up again at this time and sneered, "Madam, I just said that if you are willing to divorce, the three thousand taels of silver will be given to your family immediately, but your son did not agree. In this case, the three thousand taels of silver must be returned to my general's mansion."

"What?" Mrs. Wang immediately gasped. Three thousand taels of silver was not a small amount.

Yin Yichen did not refute, but instead focused his attention on Wen Xian, "What do you think, Lord Shangshu?"

Wen Xian's expression was extremely ugly, and he almost spat out a word from between his teeth, "Return."

"Okay, in that case, I will be the judge of the government office." Yin Yichen put his hand on the chair and said slowly, "Wen Tingbai and Song Wanning are not on good terms, so they are going to divorce and part ways. The Zhongping Marquis's Mansion is required to return all of Song Wanning's dowry and the three thousand taels of silver owed within three months."

The Zhongping Marquis's Mansion no longer dared to raise any objections and quickly responded, "Yes."

Song Wanning and Wen Tingbai signed their divorce agreement under Yin Yichen's nose and had no further ties with each other.

Yin Yichen finally stood up from his chair and said, "Sir, I suddenly remembered that I still have a lot of official business to deal with, so I won't bother you for now. I also ask Sir to set up the promotion and demotion standards I mentioned earlier as soon as possible."

Wen Xian nodded repeatedly, "Goodbye, Prime Minister."

Song Wanning and Song Jing went out together. Song Lan was worried about Song Wanning's dowry in the Marquis' Mansion, so he immediately took people to move things.

Yin Yichen walked in front of Song Wanning and got on the carriage in front of Song Wanning without looking back for a moment.

Song Jing looked at Yin Yichen's back and spoke out his true feelings, "Wan Ning, the Prime Minister obviously helped us today, but I don't know why. Do you know him?"

Song Wanning didn't dare to tell others that she knew Yin Yichen. She just said, "My daughter has only been in the Marquis' Mansion and really doesn't know the Prime Minister. But now that I have been doing this favor, I should find a chance to thank him."

"That's good." Song Jing breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't worry about thanking the Prime Minister. Dad will do it for you."

Song Jing and Song Wanning got on the carriage together. Song Jing seemed to remember something and hurriedly reminded his daughter, "It's best if you don't know the Prime Minister now, and don't have any intersection with him in the future."

"Why is that?" Song Wanning looked puzzled. She really couldn't understand why Song Jing felt that Yin Yichen was not someone to be approached.

"Yin Yichen is only 21 years old now, but he is already the prime minister of the dynasty. He is second only to the emperor and above everyone else. Even the princes in the palace are no less powerful than him." Song Jing shook his head and sighed, "A tall tree attracts the wind. No prince wants to see his glory overshadowed by an adopted son. The ups and downs in the court are not something you can understand."

Song Wanning did not refute this, but held her chin and said in surprise, "If that's the case, then isn't Prime Minister Yin extremely intelligent?"

Song Jing nodded slightly, "He is a rare genius. He is able to maneuver in the court, so he is definitely not a simple person. In short, it will not be wrong to stay away from him in the future."

"I understand, Father." Song Wanning responded, and when she opened the curtain, she saw Yin Yichen's carriage leaving the street.

Song Jing wanted to give her a few more words of advice, but then he changed his mind and thought that Song Wanning had been married once. Yin Yichen, who was in a high position and had great power, would probably not have any intersection with Song Wanning, so he swallowed the words that were on his lips.

Song Jing and Song Wanning returned to the mansion first, while Song Lan and his men rented a carriage and brought fifty servants. It took them two hours to move all the dowry back to the Song Mansion. It can be seen how glorious it was when Song Wanning married into the Marquis' Mansion.

After Song Lan finished moving the things, he immediately called Song Wanning over and said, "Sister, your brother has moved all your dowry back from the warehouse in the Marquis' Mansion. You might as well take a look and make sure nothing is missing. Don't let that heartless family get away with it."

"It should be correct. At that time, my dowry was locked in the warehouse and no one else could enter." Song Wanning looked at the tall and straight Song Lan and said hurriedly, "Thank you, brother, for helping me on this trip."

"You're welcome." Song Lan smiled and raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Song Wanning didn't care whether the dowry was leaked or not, but she still remembered the treacherous shopkeeper Liu.

Song Wanning has always been a person who sticks to her word. Now that she has encountered such a cunning servant, she will definitely teach the shopkeeper a lesson. Now that she has divorced and become a girl again, and the Marquis' Mansion also knows that she has taken over the rouge shop, she is no longer afraid of her true face being seen by the people in the Marquis' Mansion.

What she has to do now is to make the Liu family pay the price they deserve.
