Emperor Yu went to the piano room.
When he was not in the harem, he only had three places to rest - the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Imperial Study, and the Qin Room.
It is common knowledge among the people of Beiyue that the tyrant Emperor Yu loves the sound of the zither.
Emperor Yu's personality was not like this originally. When he was still a prince, he was the same as everyone else.
She is loved by her mother and favored by the palace ladies.
The late emperor had many princes, and Emperor Yu was just the most insignificant one among them, simply because his mother was of low status and had been a palace maid.
After being taken advantage of by the late emperor, she became pregnant and was then granted the title of Wan Jieyushi of the late emperor.
Although Concubine Wan gave birth to a prince, she was excluded by other concubines in the harem because of her low status.
With three thousand concubines and beauties in the harem, the emperor soon forgot about her.
Except for that day when he visited her while drunk, the emperor never set foot in her palace again.
Emperor Yu never experienced fatherly love in his childhood, but despite this, he lived a happy childhood.
His mother, Concubine Wan, and the eunuchs and maids in the palace all doted on him.
It was not until he was fifteen that war broke out in the northern border. The emperor originally wanted to send Concubine Jing's son, the third prince, to quell the war.
But Concubine Jing was afraid that something might happen to her son in the northern border, so she pushed Di Yu out.
Emperor Yu was ordered to go to the northern border to quell the war, and he was away for five full years.
After finally pacifying the northern border, he could not wait to rush back to the palace to see his mother, but was told that Concubine Wan had died.
It turned out that news of Emperor Yu's victory in the northern border came frequently. The emperor was very pleased to hear it, and Concubine Wan regained her favor.
She broke away from being a mere concubine and ascended to the position of Concubine Hui!
Seeing that Concubine Wan was the only one favored by the emperor, and Emperor Yu was victorious frequently, he became the promising talent in the emperor's eyes.
At that time, the crown prince had not yet been decided, and any of the princes could become the next crown prince. The queen and other concubines who had princes could not sit still, so they joined forces to kill Emperor Yu's mother, Concubine Hui.
When Concubine Hui died, Emperor Yu was furious.
The harem was stained with blood and a massacre took place in the harem.
He killed all those who were involved in the murder of Concubine Hui.
The Empress, the Imperial Concubine, the Jing Concubine, the Shu Concubine, the Rong Concubine, and so on, all those suspected of murdering Hui Concubine died under Emperor Yu's sword.
Killing the concubines in the harem was not enough, the blood-thirsty Emperor Yu turned his attention to the princes.
He knew that the reason the Queen and others murdered his gentle mother was because they were afraid that he would take that position.
In order to take revenge, Emperor Yu disregarded the ties between brothers and rushed into the fight for the throne, killing all the princes who had plotted to murder his mother for the throne.
Later, he stepped on the blood of his brothers and concubines in the harem and stepped onto the position that everyone coveted.
Criticize the tyrant crazily and become famous in one battle!
Nowadays, no matter if it’s the common people in Kyoto or a three-year-old child, their faces turn pale with shock when the name of the tyrant is mentioned!
Emperor Yu came to the piano room and sat casually in front of a piano.
He gently plucked the strings a few times with his fingers and then went to the inner room.
Concubine Hui loved the zither and often played it for Emperor Yu.
Now that Concubine Hui has passed away, Emperor Yu has not even seen her for the last time and can only rely on the sound of the piano to remember his deceased mother.
In order to gain the emperor's favor, the concubines in the harem practiced the piano hard.
However, there were three thousand beauties in the harem, but Emperor Yu could not find one who could play the piano as well as Concubine Hui.
There was no light in the piano room. Moonlight shone through the window onto Emperor Yu's black dragon robe embroidered with gold, adding a touch of loneliness to his tall figure.
There have been many affairs in the court recently, and Emperor Yu was tired, so he lay on his side on the dragon bed in the inner room.
At that time, Chuxiu Palace was not far from the piano room.
Jiang Jingyu arrived at Chuxiu Palace on time along with the other beautiful ladies.
Aunt Rong was already waiting for them in Chuxiu Palace.
Looking at the concubines' disheveled clothes and messy hair, Aunt Rong frowned.
He sternly scolded: "Your clothes are disheveled and your hair is messy. How can you be so unbecoming!"
Shen Weining pouted in displeasure and muttered softly, "It's all because of you, Aunt Rong, that you don't play by the rules. You didn't even tell me in advance that you wanted to teach me the palace rules at night. You only told me when we were about to go to bed!"
Aunt Rong's eyes instantly locked on Shen Weining, and she walked towards her quickly.
Snap——
The ruler in his hand fell mercilessly on Shen Weining's shoulder.
"How dare you talk back! If the Emperor summoned you at night without a message, would you have contradicted him like this?"
Shen Weining shuddered, then realized that he had said the wrong thing, and bowed hurriedly.
"Aunt Rong, don't be angry. It was Ning'er who said the wrong thing!"
Aunt Rong glared at Shen Weining and said in a deep voice, "After you finish teaching today's palace rules and etiquette, the others can go back and rest. You will copy the palace rules and etiquette three times here. You can go back when you have finished copying them!"
Shen Weining's eyes widened, and she was about to refute, but after seeing the captivating expression on Aunt Rong's face, she swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
Aunt Rong snorted coldly and walked in front of everyone.
"Since today is your first day in the palace, I'll forgive you this time. But if you dare to show up like this again, it won't be as simple as copying the palace rules!"
As soon as Aunt Rong finished speaking, everyone hurriedly straightened their crooked clothes, threw all the black hair in front of their chests behind them, and tried their best to make themselves look less unkempt.
Aunt Rong walked among the crowd holding a ruler.
"The conduct of the concubines in the harem must be dignified and graceful, not spoiled; they must manage the palaces diligently and diligently, not slacking off; they must not abuse their power, but must win the support of the people with virtue and not abuse their authority."
…
Aunt Rong has been chattering non-stop since the concubines stepped into Chuxiu Palace.
