Seeing Su Luo like this, the old emperor smiled and said, "If it weren't for your mother, your uncle Ouyang would have died at the hands of Gui Ci long ago, so go ahead and speak, no need to be polite."
I should repay the life-saving grace with a spring of gratitude.
Su Luo paused, thinking secretly in her heart.
It was Little Stone who mentioned the spiritual dance steps. Now that Uncle Ouyang is so polite, why not...
Su Luo couldn't elaborate on the details. She seemed to ponder for a moment, "I wonder if Uncle Ouyang has any secret manuals on chain repair?"
The old emperor stroked his short stubble and laughed heartily: "There are countless secret manuals in the Western Jin Dynasty's library. Whether it's strength or speed, you can take them all. However—"
"Just what?" Su Luo asked with a smile.
But she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
As expected, the old emperor said, "Except for the shadow dance steps passed down from our ancestors, you can take anything else you like."
Su Luo's expression darkened, with unspeakable disappointment in her eyes.
She had a lot of other secrets, but she was missing a shadow dance step, and the old man didn't even give it to her.
The old emperor seemed to notice Su Luo's bad mood, and he explained carefully: "This shadow dance step was passed down by our ancestors. It is only passed down to males, not females, and only to legitimate children, not illegitimate children. If you disobey this order, you will be struck by lightning."
The old emperor wanted to satisfy all of Su Luo's demands and make her happy, but this was a rule set by his ancestors, so he couldn't go against it, right?
Su Luo smiled and said, "This is quite demanding, Uncle Ouyang. There aren't many people in the palace who meet this requirement, right?"
The old emperor sighed helplessly and sadly, "There aren't many. There's only one."
Although the old emperor looked helpless, there was unconcealable pride and satisfaction in his eyes.
Among the princes, there are not many who can make the old emperor proud.
Su Luo suddenly remembered what Princess Yulin had said to her.
Ouyang Yunqi is the child left by Empress Yuan, and he is the only one in the entire palace who is truly a legitimate child.
As expected, the old emperor chuckled and said, "The Shadow Dance has been passed on to Yunqi. If you want the Shadow Dance, there is only one way."
Su Luo's face darkened slightly.
Don't think she doesn't know what this old man is up to. Isn't she just trying to pair herself with Ouyang Liuyun? She won't satisfy his evil taste!
Su Luo restrained her expression, stood up coldly, and turned to leave.
The old emperor was anxious when he saw her, and immediately waved at her: "Look at you, girl, why are you so anxious? Come, sit down and talk."
Su Luo glanced at him and sat down again.
The old emperor Su Luo was displeased and counted on his fingers: "Look at Yunqi, this child, he is good-looking, talented, has a good character, and a good temperament. Why do you, a little girl, not like him?"
"Good character?" Su Luo turned her head and stared directly at the old emperor. "Are you sure?"
The old emperor felt a little uneasy at the sight of her, but in order to sell his son, he nodded solemnly: "Of course, his character is excellent!"
"I'm arguing with you." Su Luo glared angrily, "The only heir of the Ouyang Imperial Family? Old Emperor, I have to say, your vision is really poor. Just wait for the day when he betrays you!"
Back then, even his close friend was stabbed to death. Would the old emperor, his cheap father Yunqi, take it seriously?
"You little girl, your words are so harsh." The old emperor did not get angry, but smiled and said, "How about we make a bet?"
