The Holy Emperor shouted coldly, "What are you all doing?"

"This servant deserves death. Please spare my life, Holy Emperor. We were simply captivated by the music and singing inside and forgot everything for a moment."

Everyone knelt on the ground before the Holy Emperor.

"Singing? Why didn't I hear it?" Si Mingyuan held his breath immediately, and then he could faintly hear the sound of the piano and singing. Taihe Palace was very large, and the sound became faint when it reached the outside.

"Hahaha, little Su Yue has so many surprises." The Holy Emperor went straight into the gate of Taihe Palace.

Inside, the Queen Mother instantly transformed into a three-year-old girl, pestering Yun Suyue to play and sing another song for her. "Just one song, the last one. Little Suyue, you should digest your food."

"Haha, okay, okay, as long as you are happy, this is just one song. I have to get up early tomorrow to do important things, so I want to rest early." Yun Suyue was helpless. She didn't expect the empress dowager to be like this. She was so old, but she acted coquettishly and cutely, making it impossible for her to refuse.

"Little Su Yue, please start now. I also want to hear some fresh little songs. They are definitely much better than the ones sung by the concubines in my harem."

Si Mingyuan lifted his dragon robe, sat down next to the empress dowager, grabbed a handful of snacks and waited quietly.

Yun Suyue's mouth twitched. "Well, I can do that, but your concubines certainly can't. I just tried to trick them, but your charm was too great, and I failed."

Finally, Yun Suyue shrugged her shoulders, looking very playful. Her hands were already on the strings of the zither. The touching music started to sound, and the next second, the singing of fighting spirit began to float:

"In this ever-changing world, there are too many rains and winds. Ten years in the west, ten years in the east. Don't despise the young and poor. Unable to see through the grudges of the world, unable to distinguish between north and south, east and west, step by step, difficult to reach the peak.

······

I can't forget your smile, and I can't bring back my heroic spirit. I draw my sword and ask the heavens, who is the hero... I charge forward and fight to the heavens!"

"Hmm?" Si Mingyuan, who had originally been playing a relaxing tune, suddenly stiffened his expression and held his breath. "Ten years in the west, ten years in the east. Don't look down on the young and poor? Hasn't the Canglan Empire always been bullying my Maple Forest Dynasty?

It is obvious that the Beiming Kingdom has been the second largest country for a thousand years and its national strength is stronger than Fenglin, but it only dares to plunder small cities on my border and has not dared to attack the main city of Canglan for ten years.

But Canglan has been attacking my main border city continuously for ten years. Those two shameless countries are going too far!

Fight!

This emperor must fight Canglan! Fight Beiming! Fight Canglan! Break Beiming!

"I'll be able to produce a batch of repeating crossbows soon. I'm going to catch Canglan off guard, scare them into retreating a hundred miles away! We'll fight to the death until they voluntarily sue for peace!"

Yun Suyue's song inspired Si Mingyuan's ambition and immortal soul.

The Queen Mother was horrified. "Alright! I support you, son. Isn't the treasury empty? Take my savings first. I'm tired of seeing those dead things sitting there. When your treasury is full, I'll take them back."

However, Si Mingyuan refused. "Thank you, mother, but I won't need it for now. Just a quarter of an hour ago, the Tai family, the richest family in the imperial city, suddenly sent me one million taels of silver, saying they would support Fenglin in fighting Canglan."

In fact, it was because Old Master Tai heard that his only grandson Tai was rich and accidentally offended the Seventh Prince. He was so scared that he immediately asked someone to prepare one million in cash overnight and asked the Minister of Revenue Mei Guanghan, the father of Mei Beiyao and Mei Jingxian, to deliver it to the palace overnight and place it in front of the Holy Emperor.

The Tai family seemed to be cursed, with only one son in the family for three generations. It was very strange that in each generation, no matter how many wives and concubines they married, they only gave birth to one son, and the rest were all girls.

For this reason, every male member of the Tai family is a treasure, a super treasure, and is accompanied by both visible and invisible guards when he goes out.

But no matter how rich he is, he dare not compete with the prince of the current dynasty. Mr. Tai has been in the business world for his entire life and is very shrewd.

He knew that the Seventh Prince was not short of money, there was a war going on on the border, and the Seventh Prince and the current Holy Emperor were brothers on good terms, so he gave the silver directly to the Holy Emperor.

Old Man Tai was afraid that something might happen to his only grandson, Tai Youqian, so he kept track of every detail of Tai Youqian's whereabouts since he was born. He even knew every time Tai Youqian went to the toilet.

Of course, he knew about offending the seven kings.

The Queen Mother asked the Holy Emperor's son, "I don't understand why the Tai family gave you one million taels of silver for no reason? Hasn't the Tai family always only engaged in business and not interacted with anyone in the royal family?"

Si Mingyuan smiled and nudged his chin, motioning the Queen Mother to look at Yun Suyue who was drinking water, "Then you have to ask little Suyue."

Yun Suyue drank two cups of tea in a row and said, "Nothing much. It's just that when I went to the auction house, Tai Youqian, the only grandson of the Tai family, bumped into me. Then he saw that I was pretty and wanted to tease me. Si Yan revealed his identity."

"Hahaha, I see. No wonder Minister Mei said he didn't know either. He only said it was related to you, little Su Yue. Hahaha.

Old Master Tai really treasures his only grandson, who is more precious than any of my other princesses.

I never thought I'd be scared like this by you and Old Seven. Well, the Tai family is the richest in the imperial city, so it's not too much to let him bleed a little."

The Queen Mother was not very happy after hearing this. Instead, she became worried. "Post the news that Little Su Yue has been named Princess. Let everyone in the Maple Forest Dynasty know about it. Let's see who dares to disrespect Little Su Yue in the future."

"My Queen Mother and I were of the same mind. Before I came to see my Queen Mother, I instructed Sun Dazhu to pass on the decree."

Si Mingyuan stood up after he finished speaking. "Mother, you should rest. I will take Little Su Yue with me. Before she died, Concubine Lian requested to see me and Little Su Yue. I would also like to hear why Concubine Lian wanted to see Little Su Yue."

"Go." The Queen Mother waved her hand.

Yun Suyue followed on the left side of Si Mingyuan. Having been in a high position for many years, Si Mingyuan had developed a natural aura of a king, and he walked with great momentum.

When she returned to the imperial study, Concubine Lian, who looked as miserable as a dog, was already kneeling on the ground waiting.

"Your humble concubine pays homage to the Holy Emperor." Hearing the footsteps, Lian Fei stiffly turned her head to look over, her eyes somewhat moved. This was her man, who had been with her for a full ten years. She had given him the best years of her youth from fifteen to twenty-five.

Even though Simingyuan is no longer young, his unique kingly demeanor and calmness are enough to impress any woman in the world.

Unfortunately, she bet on the wrong horse and embarked on a path of no return.

Look at the girl next to him. Even though she is an abandoned woman, she is more dazzling than any noble concubine in the palace. Moreover, as a daughter of a merchant, she can walk shoulder to shoulder with the Holy Emperor, and she even says that it is not because the Holy Emperor is attracted by her beauty.

However, all this has nothing to do with her anymore, and all she can live for is to see tomorrow's sun.

"The emperor and little Su Yue are here. Just say whatever you want to say." Si Mingyuan said indifferently as he sat behind the huge desk. Yun Su Yue naturally stood on the right side of the desk.

Lian Fei said, "Doesn't the Holy Emperor want to know why I want to harm you?"
