The eunuch took Sheng Yunrong to the imperial study. She was nervous because it was her first time to enter this place. Sheng Yunrong looked curious as she looked at the furnishings in the imperial study. She saw neatly arranged bookshelves filled with various ancient books, and the four treasures of the study on the desk. The whole study looked solemn and elegant.

The eunuch knocked on the door gently, and the emperor's voice came from inside: "Come in." The eunuch pushed the door open, and Sheng Yunrong followed him, lowering her head and walked in. She looked up and saw the emperor sitting in front of the desk, wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and with a serious face.

The emperor looked at Sheng Yunrong, his eyes revealing a trace of scrutiny, and he said softly: "Miss Sheng, you are finally here." Sheng Yunrong bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "Your Highness, I greet you, may your Highness be blessed with good health."

The emperor nodded slightly and motioned Sheng Yunrong to sit down. Sheng Yunrong carefully sat on a chair opposite the emperor, and her heart became nervous. The emperor picked up the brush on the table and wrote something on the rice paper, then raised his head and looked at Sheng Yunrong sharply: "Miss Sheng, do you know why I summoned you?"

Sheng Yunrong was slightly stunned. She didn't know why the emperor suddenly summoned her, but she still answered carefully: "I don't know, please tell me clearly, Your Majesty."

The emperor smiled slightly, with a hint of deep meaning in his smile: "The Sheng family has an extraordinary status in the court, and the talent of the eldest lady of the Sheng family is also known to everyone. I would like to ask you to help with some government affairs."

Sheng Yunrong was slightly startled. She had not expected the emperor to let her participate in government affairs. She knelt down hurriedly and replied respectfully: "I obey your order and will do my best to live up to your expectations."

The emperor looked at Sheng Yunrong with a hint of admiration in his eyes. He said softly, "Get up, Miss Sheng."

Sheng Yunrong stood up, but her heart was stirred. She understood that this summons meant that she would enter the court and become the emperor's confidant.

The eunuch watched all this silently, with a hint of worry in his eyes. He knew that Sheng Yunrong's talent and beauty made her the focus of attention in the court, but this also meant that she would become the target of everyone's attack.

The emperor looked at Sheng Yunrong and suddenly asked, "Miss Sheng, what do you think of the situation in the court?" Sheng Yunrong was slightly stunned. She knew that this question was not simple. She answered carefully, "I think the situation in the court is complicated and various forces are competing, but as long as the emperor is wise, he will be able to stabilize the situation."

The emperor smiled slightly, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes: "The eldest lady of the Sheng Mansion is indeed smart. I really didn't make a mistake in her."

Sheng Yunrong was delighted. It was obvious that she had won the emperor's trust. She raised her head and looked at the emperor, with a firm look in her eyes: "I will do my best to help the emperor."

The emperor nodded gently, and he looked at Sheng Yunrong, but his heart was stirred. He understood that Sheng Yunrong's appearance would bring new changes to the court, but he also believed that Sheng Yunrong was capable of this position.

At this moment, the eunuch suddenly walked in with a stack of memorials in his hand: "Your Majesty, these are memorials from various places, and you need to review them."

The emperor nodded slightly, took the memorial and began to review it carefully. Sheng Yunrong looked at the emperor with more respect in her heart.

In the imperial study, the emperor was sitting on the dragon throne, reviewing memorials. He was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and a golden dragon crown, and his expression was so majestic that people dared not look directly at him.

After the eunuch reported, the emperor nodded slightly and motioned Sheng Yunrong to come in.

Sheng Yunrong lowered her head and slowly walked into the imperial study. She glanced at the emperor and saw a heroic look between his brows, which made her heart tremble.

The emperor looked at Sheng Yunrong with a sharp gaze and said in a calm tone, "Miss Sheng, do you know why I summoned you?"

Sheng Yunrong trembled slightly and replied, "I don't know, please tell me clearly, Your Majesty."

The emperor smiled and said, "You know, your father, Lord Sheng, is highly trusted by me in the court."

Sheng Yunrong nodded slightly and said, "I know that my father has worked diligently in the court and devoted himself to the country."

The emperor said, "That's right. I trust your father very much, so I want to entrust you with a matter."

Sheng Yunrong was stunned and said hurriedly, "I obey your order, but please let the emperor know clearly."

The emperor said, "I heard that something happened in Sheng Mansion recently. Do you know about it?"

Sheng Yunrong's heart tightened. It was obvious what the emperor was referring to, so she said hurriedly, "I heard a little bit. There were indeed some trivial things happening at home."

The emperor said, "I know you are smart and good at handling household affairs. I want you to go back and take good care of the Sheng Mansion to ensure peace in the Sheng Mansion."

Sheng Yunrong felt warm in her heart. It was obvious that the emperor cared about her. She knelt down and said, "I will obey your order and will not disappoint your expectations."

The emperor nodded gently and said, "Get up. There is one more thing I want to remind you of."

Sheng Yunrong stood up and looked at the emperor nervously.

The emperor said: "Although the Sheng family is prominent, they cannot break the law. Recently, someone reported that the Sheng family embezzled government funds. I have sent people to investigate. When you return, you must take good care of this matter."

Sheng Yunrong's face changed. It was obvious that someone was secretly framing the Sheng family. But she did not panic. Instead, she said calmly, "I will definitely find out the truth and clear the name of the Sheng family."

The emperor said, "Okay, I am relieved that you have this determination. When you return, deal with this matter as soon as possible."

Sheng Yunrong left the imperial study, feeling both worried and determined. It was obvious that when she returned this time, she would not only face the trivialities of the Sheng Mansion, but also this conspiracy.

After returning to the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Yunrong immediately called the elders of the family to discuss countermeasures. She wanted to investigate all the affairs of the Sheng Mansion and find out the mastermind behind the scenes.

During the discussion, Sheng Yunrong met the eunuch chief steward of Sheng Mansion, who looked at Sheng Yunrong with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong asked: "General Manager, do you know that someone in the Sheng Mansion recently reported the embezzlement of government silver?"

The chief eunuch said, "My dear Miss, I have heard a little about this matter. But I believe that the Sheng family would not do such a thing."

Sheng Yunrong nodded and said, "I know, but this matter involves a lot of seriousness, so we have to deal with it carefully. Steward, do you know if there is anyone in the Sheng Mansion who might be related to this matter?"

The chief eunuch pondered for a moment and said, "I think this matter may be related to the second young lady of the Sheng Mansion."

Sheng Yunrong was stunned. She didn't expect the chief eunuch to say such a thing. But it was obvious that at this moment, she couldn't let her emotions get the better of her and had to analyze calmly.

She said, "Butler, why do you think so?"

The chief eunuch said, "My dear Miss, I just feel that the second young lady's behavior has been a little strange recently. She often comes into contact with strangers and looks panicked."

Sheng Yunrong nodded and said, "Okay, I will send someone to investigate this matter. Manager, you should also pay more attention. If you find any clues, notify me immediately."

The chief eunuch agreed and left the room.

Sheng Yunrong knew that she had to go all out in this crisis of Sheng Mansion. She wanted to find out the truth, clear the name of Sheng Mansion, and reassure the emperor.
