My mother is the first dancer in the capital city, entrusted to perform dances for the Emperor and the Imperial Consort.
But because the Emperor praised her "good figure," Consort Yi became consumed with jealousy.
She ordered someone to chop off my mother's legs, threw her into a pigsty, and forced her to eat pig food and drink urine and feces every day.
In the end, my mother's body rotted and stank, dying a miserable death in the pigsty.
Seven years later, Consort Yi took an interest in me, who had just entered the palace.
She wanted me to teach her the world's best dance, to please the Emperor.
But she didn't know:
I was indeed there to teach her.
To teach her to repay one debt with another!
