Mr. Sheng was silent for a moment, his face gradually becoming solemn. He stood up, walked to the bookshelf, took down a thick ancient book, and opened one of the pages. There was a map drawn on it, which was exactly the same as the map on the jade pendant in Sheng Yunrong's hand.

Mr. Sheng spread the map on the table and studied it attentively. Sheng Yunrong couldn't help but get nervous when she saw this.

As expected, Master Sheng studied it for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he said, "Sheng'er, I know the location of this passage. It is located in the rockery in the back garden of Sheng Mansion. Let's go find the treasure immediately and save Sheng Mansion from crisis."

Sheng Yunrong was delighted and asked hurriedly, "Father, when are we leaving?"

Mr. Sheng pondered for a moment and said, "We will set off early tomorrow morning. Before that, you should go and inform the Sheng Mansion of all matters and arrange the affairs at home. This operation is related to the future of the Sheng Mansion, and we cannot be careless in the slightest."

Sheng Yunrong agreed and turned around to arrange things.

Her mother's last words seemed to still echo in her ears. Sheng Yunrong knew that this action was not only related to the future of the Sheng family, but also to her relationship with her father. She secretly made up her mind to find the treasure, save the Sheng family, and fulfill her mother's last wish.

The next morning, Master Sheng and Sheng Yunrong led a group of people to the back garden of the Sheng Mansion. They followed the instructions on the map and found the passage in the rockery.

The passage was deep and winding, and Sheng Yunrong and Master Sheng walked cautiously in front, while the servants behind them held torches to illuminate the way. They walked along the passage and encountered many traps along the way, but they were all cleverly resolved by Master Sheng.

Finally, they came to the end of the passage, in front of a huge stone door. Master Sheng looked at the lock on the stone door, his eyes flashing with determination. He took out the jade pendant, compared the map on it with the pattern on the stone door, and found that it was a perfect match.

Master Sheng took a deep breath and pushed the stone door hard. The stone door slowly opened, revealing a spacious secret room. There were many treasure chests filled with gold and silver treasures in the secret room.

Sheng Yunrong looked at the scene in front of her and couldn't help but feel deeply moved.

…

Qin Wenyuan was dumbfounded by the sight of so many people, his brows furrowed, his eyes revealing a hint of impatience. Sheng Yunrong stood quietly aside, her eyes gentle, a faint smile hanging from the corners of her mouth. She seemed to be accustomed to this sudden farce.

"Sheng Yunrong, what do you mean?" Qin Wenyuan's tone was cold, his eyes were like knives, staring straight at her.

Sheng Yunrong smiled lightly, with a sly look in her eyes: "Master Qin, I just want you to see the prosperity of our Qin Mansion. After all, this was once your home."

Qin Wenyuan's face became more and more ugly. He knew what Sheng Yunrong meant. Back then, he was forced to leave the Qin Mansion and parted ways with his ex-wife Sheng Yunrong because of his failure in the political struggle. Now, he has returned to glory, but he doesn't want to fall into this vortex of power again.

"Sheng Yunrong, do you think you can make me surrender like this?" Qin Wenyuan snorted coldly, with an unyielding look in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong shook her head gently, her tone becoming gentle: "Master Qin, you misunderstood. I just want you to know that this is still your home, and no matter where you go, this place will be waiting for you."

At this time, a middle-aged man hurried over. He was Qin Wenyuan's loyal subordinate, named Zhao Tiexin. He saw the conversation between Qin Wenyuan and Sheng Yunrong and couldn't help frowning.

"Lord Qin, Madam Sheng, what are you doing?" Zhao Tiexin asked in a serious tone, with worry in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly and said to Zhao Tiexin: "General Zhao, I just want to invite Lord Qin to visit the Qin Mansion, what's wrong with that?"

Zhao Tiexin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Madam Sheng, you know what Lord Qin is thinking. The situation is turbulent now, and we need to focus on dealing with external enemies, and not creating internal strife again."

When Qin Wenyuan heard this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.

Zhao Tiexin was doing this for his own good, but he had a knot in his heart, and that was Sheng Yunrong.

"Zhao Tiexin, please step back." Qin Wenyuan's tone was calm, yet revealed his unquestionable majesty.

Zhao Tiexin reluctantly retreated, but he was worried about Qin Wenyuan. The grudge between Qin Wenyuan and Sheng Yunrong could not be resolved overnight.

Qin Wenyuan looked at Sheng Yunrong with mixed emotions in his eyes. He knew that he and she were no longer husband and wife, but opponents in a political struggle.

"Sheng Yunrong, what exactly do you want?" Qin Wenyuan said in a low voice, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes.

Sheng Yunrong smiled lightly, with a hint of determination in her eyes: "Master Qin, what I want is very simple. I just hope that you can put aside the grudges of the past and think about the future of the Qin Mansion together."

Qin Wenyuan was silent for a moment, and the fatigue in his eyes became more and more intense. He could no longer be an enemy of Sheng Yunrong, because the future of the Qin family was the most important.

"Okay, Sheng Yunrong, I promise you." Qin Wenyuan's tone was calm, but his eyes revealed a hint of helplessness.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Yunrong showed a bright smile on her face.

Sheng Yunrong seemed to feel Qin Wenyuan's gaze, she raised her head slightly and happened to meet his gaze. There was a faint smile in her eyes, as if telling him that she was already prepared. Qin Wenyuan's heart tightened, this scene, the three of them were destined to continue.

"Miss Sheng, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still as charming as ever." Qin Wenyuan was the first to break the silence. His voice was calm, but with a barely perceptible tremor.

Sheng Yunrong smiled gently, and that smile was like a spring breeze, warming people's hearts. "Mr. Qin, you are too kind. Time flies, and everyone has changed."

The conversation between the two was polite and distant, as if the past had disappeared. Qin Wenyuan couldn't help feeling a little bitter in his heart. He looked at Sheng Yunrong, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.

"Ms. Sheng, what do you think about today's banquet?" Qin Wenyuan changed the subject, trying to break the awkward atmosphere.

Sheng Yunrong smiled slightly, and a glimmer of wit flashed in her eyes. "Mr. Qin, I think that at today's banquet, why don't we have a poetry competition?"

Qin Wenyuan was stunned. He didn't expect Sheng Yunrong to make such a suggestion. He looked at her with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

She must have come prepared for this competition.

"Okay, let's do as Miss Sheng says." Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes.

In the banquet hall, everyone took their seats, and a poetry contest was about to begin. Sheng Yunrong sat in front of the zither, gently plucking the strings, and a piece of music "High Mountains and Flowing Water" began to play. Her music was as clear as spring water and as majestic as a mountain, which made people feel awe.

Qin Wenyuan sat aside, his eyes focused and deep. He looked at Sheng Yunrong, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.

"Mr. Qin, please." After Sheng Yunrong finished the song, she smiled gently and handed the zither to Qin Wenyuan.

Qin Wenyuan took the zither, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes. He gently plucked the strings, and a song "Ambush from All Sides" suddenly sounded. The sound of the zither was as deafening as thunder and as exciting as a war drum, making people's blood boil.
