Li Yuyu's coronation ceremony was personally presided over by the Empress Dowager.
When the concubines of the harem received the news, shock was fleeting; acceptance followed quickly.
With the vacancy in the Central Palace, the highest rank in the harem was Princess Consort De, but Princess Consort De had been at odds with Li Xiurong recently. Given the Emperor's regard for Li Xiurong, how could he allow Princess Consort De to preside over Li Xiurong's coronation?
Before 5 a.m., Hua Yin laboriously dragged Li Yuyu from bed.
Feng Yin, having recuperated for a time, was able to get out of bed and assist Li Yuyu despite a slight wobble when walking, insisting on helping her rise.
"Lady, please allow the servant to assist with your dressing. Although the servant cannot attend the coronation ceremony, I wish to make the lady beautiful and astonish the harem."
Li Yuyu couldn't refuse Feng Yin's request.
