"Lu Yu, do you know what kind of person the Great Qin Huang is?"

Lu Yu didn't quite understand why Li Ke would ask this.

Ever since it was revealed that Qin Mu was the author of that eternal masterpiece, he had become world-famous overnight.

All the common people knew him.

"Learned, possessing extraordinary talent, and also capable of making many inventions. Besides that, his civil and military achievements are quite good. I heard that on the battlefield, he is also an invincible fierce general!" Li Ke sighed and shook his head.

"What you said is all correct, but it's too superficial!

The Great Qin Huang has a broad mind, a higher vision, unparalleled intelligence, and his plans never fail.

Let's put it this way: in front of him, you had better not use even the slightest bit of petty scheming. Otherwise, in his eyes, you are just a joke!"

Lu Yu listened and nodded repeatedly. "647"

Hearing the end, her expression suddenly changed and became very ugly.

"So just now, he treated me like a joke, which is why he couldn't be bothered to talk to me?"

Li Ke nodded seriously.

"That's why I said you were stupid. If you don't reflect on your attitude, you might not even be able to leave Changancheng in the end!" Lu Yu finally started to feel a bit scared.

This was the tactic she feared most.

"Prince of Wu, don't scare me. If he detains me for no reason, it will have a huge impact on Great Qin's reputation."

Upon hearing this, Li Ke raised his head and looked at the ceiling with hollow eyes.

"The Great Qin Huang has a free-spirited nature and has never cared about these hollow reputations; he acts as he pleases.

But generally speaking, he won't detain you for no reason. It all depends on your attitude."

Lu Yu felt like crying.

She had always had this attitude since she was a child, and her family had even praised her many times for being shrewd and mature in handling affairs.

It was precisely because she had this talent that the caravan was handed over to her to manage.

How could she have imagined that the one thing she had been proud of since childhood would become the thing he hated most in front of Qin Mu?

"Then what should I do? Should I stop making requests?

But this grain cannot be sold to Great Qin for nothing; it must serve some purpose."

Li Ke finally gave Lu Yu a suggestion.

"You should only mention Li Tai. As for the others, they are not people you can manage."

Only mention Li Tai?

In Lu Yu's heart, the gap was still a bit too large.

She still wanted to save a few more noble ladies; those people were her close friends.

Li Ke looked like he was doing better than her and didn't need her to save him.

"What about those noble ladies? This is your mission; are you confident you can save them and take them back?" Li Ke smiled bitterly again.

"I have already defected to Great Qin. Don't even think about those noble ladies; they cannot be saved.

Only Li Tai is someone Great Qin has prepared for you to save. If you mention him, the mission can be completed."

"It's that simple."

Lu Yu was almost going crazy.

After listening to Li Ke's words, she felt that she was completely in a game controlled by someone else.

She couldn't do anything!

All she could do was what others had arranged for her.

This was a huge blow to her confidence.

She still couldn't accept it and decided to find a time to talk to Qin Mu again.

Even if she could only save one more person, that would be her achievement.

"I don't believe the Great Qin Huang would disregard the big picture just for his own personal preferences!"

Facing such a stubborn girl, Li Ke was also helpless.

He had already done his best.

As for how her affairs would end up, it was no longer his business.

"Drink your soup!"

At the same time.

The Laundry Bureau.

Qin Mu had arrived here.

Last time, three noble ladies had already left here because they were proficient in the weaving techniques of cloud brocade.

There were still twelve left, who remained here washing clothes.

Seeing Qin Mu arrive, the girls were particularly excited.

"Greetings, Your Majesty! Your Majesty, is there another assessment this time?"

The assessment had become their only hope of leaving this place.

Not seizing the opportunity last time had already left them with great regret.

They were eager for Qin Mu to give a few more assessment topics; what if they happened to encounter one they were good at?

Qin Mu nodded slightly.

He was very satisfied with the change in the girls' attitude.

This is how it should be; striving for improvement is what makes a good girl!

"There are twelve spots this time."

All twelve girls were excited, which meant that each of them had a chance.

Perhaps they could all leave the Laundry Bureau together.

"Your Majesty, what is the assessment this time?"

Qin Mu looked at their figures and smiled meaningfully.

These noble ladies were all capable of singing and dancing.

This time, Qin Mu wanted to make use of this special talent of theirs.

Qin Mu planned to introduce the first dance manual...

But it would no longer be the currently popular Western Regions Hu dance, nor would it be the Han Palace dance.

In the present world, there is a lack of new-style dances that are fast-paced and have a strong sense of rhythm.

"The content of the assessment is choreography! But it will no longer be the kind of dance you are familiar with."

"Choreography?"

These girls were all very curious.

They didn't know what kind of new-style dance they were to choreograph?

They were proficient in all kinds of dances and were confident that there was no dance that could completely baffle them.

The palace female official took them to the Inner Music Bureau.

Empress Zhangsun, Changle, Li Xueyan, and Wu Meiniang, upon hearing that the Emperor was going to choreograph a new-style dance, all came over as well.

Qin Mu knew that if this kind of dance relied solely on words, it might take them a long time to understand.

He simply stepped in himself.

Street dance had once been Qin Mu's strength, though he hadn't danced it for many years.

As soon as the initial style was set, it caused bursts of screams.

"Wow, so cool!"

"I don't know what kind of dance move this is, but it feels very cold and arrogant!"

"These moves are so powerful, aren't they?"

"What kind of dance is this?"

Even though the women present were all knowledgeable and experienced.

Yet in their lives, they had never seen this kind of dance before.

Qin Mu's movements seemed to have merged with his heartbeat.

Every beat had a strong sense of rhythm, driving their heartbeats.

Backflips, mid-air triple spins...

Qin Mu's limbs looked very relaxed, but his movements were extremely powerful.
