Chapter 456 - 456: Great Xia’s Number One Agent! Regret (3)

This unveiled a significant historical enigma.
Historians scoured all the records but failed to discover the name of Emperor
Yin.
In the five thousand years of the Great Xia, no emperor had ever left without a trace of his name.
Speculation was rife.
Some even suggested that Emperor Yin had ordered all historians not to record his name, fearing that future generations would remember his tyranny.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiheng fell silent for a moment.
After a long pause, he said indifferently, “Because he never had a name.”
Si Fuqing was taken aback, “No name?”
“He was the ninth son of the previous emperor, abandoned outside the palace at birth, not even given a baby name,” Yu Xiheng said coolly. “Picked up by the abbot of a temple, even though he was a castaway, the temple folks dared not name him casually, hence they simply called him ‘Nine.”‘
“After he returned to the palace, no one called him by his name, and no one thought he would ascend to the throne.” Si Fuqing’s gaze gradually hardened.
Before, no one cared about his name.
Afterward, no one dared to speak his name directly.
Yu Xiheng met her eyes and smiled, “So, having a name or not doesn’t matter anymore.”
“Is that so...” Si Fuqing nodded, “This perspective is quite novel, not many historians have proposed it.”
Yu Xiheng brushed a petal off himself, raising an eyebrow imperceptibly,
“Simple analysis.”
Si Fuqing gave a thumbs up, “Boss, you really are capable of anything.”
Yu Xiheng hummed, “How much?”
Si Fuqing paused, then realized what he meant, raising her hand, “120% of sincerity!”
Indeed, being with the Black-hearted Monster, one must always be wary of their verbal traps.
Thinking she could be easily fooled was out of the question.
In the afternoon, Tianle Media released an announcement online.
It was as if the RM publicity slogan had been written for her.
Unbowed and unyielding.
Yet, in the vast melting pot of the entertainment industry, even the toughest bones eventually break.
Entering the company, the first floor was bustling.
Meng Xue caught a glimpse of a tall woman, who disappeared into a private elevator before she could see clearly.
“That’s Teacher Tong Luoyun,” Brother Zhou pointed out, “I’ll arrange for you
to meet her.”
Meng Xue nodded.
She was well aware of Tong Luoyun’s standing in the film industry.
The foremost among the four leading actresses.
She had won all three major domestic movie awards and was now advancing into the international entertainment industry.
It was rumored she had landed a role in a big-budget sci-fi movie by Glenn.
Though just a supporting role, it was already far beyond her peers.
“She was discovered by that person,” Brother Zhou shook his head, “Such a pity, after the film emperor committed suicide,”
Meng Xue paused, “Who?”
“The one once hailed as the greatest agent in Great Xia, Sang Yanqing!” Brother Zhou counted on his fingers, “Let me tell you about the stars she’s managed. Not to mention Tong Luoyun, the grand slam film emperor who was just a step away from the Glenn Award.”
“And there are two others, pillars of the film industry. Truly remarkable.” Meng Xue engraved the name Sang Yanqing in her memory.
She continued to acquaint herself with the new company alongside Brother Zhou.
A few agents just happened to come out from the pantry, talking excitedly.
“Did you say Sister Sang is taking on someone? She’s actually making a comeback? Who could possibly persuade her?”
“It’s been six years since Sister Sang vanished from the entertainment scene, along with her legends.”
“Her discerning eye is legendary; not many can catch her attention, but those who do, at the very least, turn out like Tong Luoyun.”
Brother Zhou was also surprised, “Sang Yanqing is back? Who is she managing?
“Brother Zhou,” one of the agents greeted him, “Yes, Sister Sang is back. We should be notified soon, wait and see. She’s bound to make a big splash..”
