Chapter 135 Summoning



A trace of approval flashed in the eyes of the Empress, and she nodded gently: "This is a very good idea. It is rare for Miss Sheng to care about the world so much. However, have you discussed this academy with the Sheng family?"

Sheng Yunrong raised her head with a firm look in her eyes: "My Lady, I have my own ideas about the Sheng Mansion. I have discussed this with my father, and he also thinks this is a good thing and fully supports it. As for my mother, she also agrees very much."

The Queen smiled slightly and patted Sheng Yunrong's hand gently: "Okay, if that's the case, I'm relieved. However, we still need to be cautious about the academy. After all, it involves the royal family's reputation, and there can't be any mistakes."

The Queen said, "Miss Sheng, do you know that once this academy is built, you will be the principal of the academy, which is a huge responsibility. Do you have the confidence to take on the responsibility?"

Sheng Yunrong said calmly, "My Lady, I have confidence. I believe that as long as we work hard, this academy will surely become a cradle for talented women in the world."

A trace of relief flashed in the eyes of the Queen. She looked at Sheng Yunrong as if she saw a future heroine. She said softly, "Okay, since you have such confidence, I will leave this matter to you. However, I have something to ask of you. Are you willing?"

Sheng Yunrong immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please tell me. Sheng Yunrong will do her best."

The Queen looked at Sheng Yunrong with a serious expression: "I want you to be in charge of the selection. This is related to the royal bloodline, which is of great importance. Do you have the confidence to do it well?"

Sheng Yunrong looked determined: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best to select the best woman for the royal family."

The Queen nodded slightly. She looked at Sheng Yunrong with expectation in her eyes: "Okay, I believe you."

"I wonder if your majesty summoned me this time to..." Sheng Yunrong looked at the emperor, staring at him with eyes as bright as autumn water, with expectation and anxiety flashing in her bright eyes. The emperor smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, warm and deep, which made Sheng Yunrong's heart beat faster.

"Miss Sheng, you misunderstood." The emperor's voice was low and magnetic, revealing a hint of unquestionable majesty, "The reason I summoned you this time is not because of your status as a commoner."

Sheng Yunrong was slightly stunned. She knew what the emperor meant, but she was still a little confused. She bit her lower lip lightly, and a hint of shyness flashed in her eyes.

"So, what is your Majesty's business?" she asked softly, with a hint of tentativeness in her voice.

The emperor smiled slightly, with a hint of teasing in his eyes: "Miss Sheng, don't you know that I have been fond of you for a long time?"

Sheng Yunrong's face suddenly turned red. She didn't expect the emperor to express his feelings so directly. She lowered her head, her long eyelashes trembling slightly, and she looked a little uneasy.

"Your Majesty, I am a commoner of low status and may not be worthy of your status." Sheng Yunrong said in a low voice, with a hint of inferiority in her voice.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes: "Miss Sheng, do you think I am the kind of person who cares about status? In my eyes, status is just a piece of diploma. What really matters is a person's character and talent."

Sheng Yunrong's heart was moved when she heard this. She raised her head and looked at the emperor firmly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to sing a song for you."

The emperor smiled slightly and nodded: "Okay, I will listen to your piano music."

Sheng Yunrong walked gently to the piano, and her slender fingers gently brushed the strings, producing a melodious melody. Her piano sounded like a plaint, as if she was telling her thoughts. The emperor listened quietly, with a hint of intoxication in his eyes.

When the song was over, the emperor applauded and praised: "Miss Sheng, your piano skills are indeed well-deserved. I am very happy to hear such beautiful piano music."

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly, with a glimmer of joy in her eyes: "If your Majesty likes it, I will be relieved."

The emperor looked at Sheng Yunrong, and his heart moved. He stood up, walked to Sheng Yunrong, and looked at her affectionately: "Miss Sheng, are you willing to follow me back to the palace and become my wife?"

Sheng Yunrong blushed. She didn't expect the emperor to make such a request. She raised her head and looked at the emperor firmly: "Your Majesty, I am willing."

The emperor was overjoyed when he heard this. He held Sheng Yunrong's hand tightly, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "Okay, from today on, you are my concubine."

"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work today." Sheng Yunrong said softly. She gently rubbed the emperor's shoulders, her eyes full of tenderness.

The emperor smiled slightly and looked at Sheng Yunrong, with a hint of gratitude in his eyes: "Miss Sheng, I am really happy to have you by my side."

Sheng Yunrong's heart moved when she heard this. She looked up at the emperor with a hint of shyness in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I am also very happy."

Sheng Yunrong looked at the emperor with a hint of expectation and trepidation in her eyes. This summons was of great significance to her. The emperor smiled slightly, and that smile was like the warm sunshine in spring, illuminating the haze in her heart.

"Miss Sheng, I summoned you this time because I have something to entrust to you." The emperor's voice was low and magnetic, revealing a sense of unquestionability.

Sheng Yunrong bowed slightly and replied, "I am very frightened. May I ask what Your Majesty has entrusted me with?"

The emperor's eyes flashed with admiration, and he said, "I have heard that the eldest daughter of the Sheng family is both talented and beautiful, and she is very intelligent, so I would like to ask you to assist me in handling some government affairs."

Sheng Yunrong was shocked when she heard this. She knew what this meant. She took a deep breath and said slowly, "I will obey your order, but I am afraid that I am not talented enough to do the job."

The emperor chuckled and said, "Miss Sheng, you are too modest. I see that you have an elegant temperament and excellent conversation skills, so you will definitely be able to do the job. Besides, I will be there to assist you, so don't worry."

Sheng Yunrong felt warm in her heart, smiled slightly, and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will do my best."

The conversation between the two was like the sound of a zither, full of tacit understanding. At this time, the atmosphere in the palace became relaxed.

The emperor suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Miss Sheng, what do you think are the shortcomings of my way of governing the country?"

Sheng Yunrong thought for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and your way of governing the country is perfect. But I think Your Majesty is too strict. Can you relax the standards a little and allow the people more freedom?"

When the emperor heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "Miss Sheng is indeed extraordinary. She can point out my shortcomings. I will consider your opinion."

An hour later, the emperor suddenly asked, "Miss Sheng, what do you think of my queen?"

Sheng Yunrong was slightly stunned. She didn't expect the emperor to ask such a question. She thought for a moment and replied, "The Queen is a great mother of the country and has both talent and wisdom. She is the best wife for your Majesty."

The emperor's eyes flashed with satisfaction when he heard this, but he turned and asked, "Then do you think that there is harmony between me and the queen?"

Sheng Yunrong's heart tightened, she knew this question involved the secrets of the palace. She answered carefully: "Your Majesty and the Queen have a deep affection for each other, I think they should be very harmonious."

The emperor smiled and said, "Miss Sheng is indeed smart. There are indeed some misunderstandings between me and the queen. But I believe that if we communicate with our hearts, we can resolve them."

Sheng Yunrong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that the emperor had put aside his doubts.
