Zhen Huan had already prepared her dancing costume and quickly changed and returned to the palace.

After entering the palace, Zhen Huan paid her respects to the emperor and then looked at Shen Meizhuang.

Shen Meizhuang stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the ordinary accompaniment is too vulgar. How about I play the piano and An agrees to sing a song to accompany Lady Wan."

The emperor thought for a moment and ordered, "Su Peisheng, fetch Concubine Shu's Chang Xiang Si Qin."

Su Peisheng agreed and told the eunuch beside him to go and get it.

Tana looked at Jinghong Wu, who was no different from her previous life, and calmed down to think about what to do next. In her next life, she couldn't live as miserably as in her previous life.

Until Prince Dun laughed and said, "It is really exquisite, comparable to the dancing girls in the palace."

Only then did Tana wake up from her thoughts and looked at Prince Dun helplessly.

Prince Dun's mother was of noble birth and had always looked down on the emperor's mother, who was of bondservant origin, and had never submitted to the emperor.

Prince Guo's biological mother was from the Baiyi tribe, and Prince Dun looked down on her.

After Prince Dun finished speaking, Prince Guo really spoke up to defend Zhen Huan and said, "Tenth brother, you are joking. The Jinghong Dance performed by Concubine Wan was passed down from Concubine Mei. In the past, Concubine Mei was called the 'essence' of plum by Emperor Xuanzong. The Jinghong Dance originated from Concubine Mei. Today, I am using the present to appreciate the past."

Prince Dun was unhappy and retorted, "Oh? Seventeenth brother, have you seen Concubine Mei? How can you make such a confident judgment?"

Tana did not cough lightly like she did in her previous life to remind Prince Dun not to go too far.

Prince Guo first said that he was an idler, and then boasted that he had read a lot of history books. These words were said to remind the emperor that I, Prince Guo, was quiet and protected the emperor, unlike other relatives.

No wonder the emperor later asked Prince Guo to investigate the affair between Prince Dun and Nian Gengyao. Prince Guo was trying to climb up by stepping on Prince Dun's face.

Prince Dun naturally fought back: "We Manchus conquered the world with our horseback riding and archery, why are the Han people showing off their history books? Your biological mother is Han, so she taught you to behave like Han people."

The emperor listened for a long time with a cold face, and finally said: "What my dynasty lacks is people who are both civil and military. You are my left and right arms. You all have your own expertise, so there is no need to compare your strengths."

Tana originally wanted to tell her dream in public so as to embarrass the emperor and humiliate him on the spot.

But after calming down and thinking about it, he changed his plan and listened absent-mindedly to the emperor and the others chattering, just like in his previous life.

I heard Prince Guo say, "I just played the flute to accompany my new sister-in-law, so please don't punish me, brother."

Tana looked at the queen's face and saw that the smile on her face had disappeared.

The emperor introduced Zhen Huan and Shen Meiyu to Prince Guo. When it was An Lingrong's turn, the emperor didn't remember An Lingrong.

After An Lingrong introduced herself, the emperor suddenly shouted, "Reward!"

An Lingrong's face froze, probably because she felt humiliated.

Only after a singing girl has finished singing will her client do this.

I didn't expect the emperor to be so unkind. After being offended by Prince Dun, he took his anger out on a concubine who had no family background.

Upon hearing this, Zhen Huan said nothing. She was usually a very eloquent person, and she did not even think of trying to save An Lingrong's words or to protect her self-esteem.

No matter what, An Lingrong sang in public like a singing girl all for Zhen Huan.

Shen Meizhuang, the person who suggested that An Lingrong sing in public, didn't seem to hear anything wrong.

No one asked An Lingrong for her opinion; Shen Meizhuang directly asked An Lingrong to sing in public.

An Lingrong was willing to sing in public because she wanted to help Zhen Huan, and secondly, Shen Meiyu had already proposed it to the emperor, who nodded. She couldn't disobey the emperor's order. However, she didn't expect that the emperor would treat her so badly.
