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.'"
