The calligraphy skills displayed by the queen were eye-opening, and everyone also understood one thing, that is, as the princess's biological mother, Cao Qinmo only had the power to choose what kind of performance the named person would perform.

Therefore, when Cao Qinmo reached into the box again, everyone present began to look forward to it.

If it were me, even if I didn't have any special skills, Cao Qinmo shouldn't have found it difficult.

Anyway, this is indeed a rare opportunity to perform in front of the emperor. If you don’t cherish it, it would be a shame to take advantage of this good opportunity.

With this thought in mind, everyone was eager to try and waited for Cao Qinmo to announce the next name.

"Okay, please come up, Master Wan!"

Cao Qinmo called out Zhen Huan's name, then slowly opened the paper. She then widened her eyes slightly, as if she had seen something extraordinary, and said, "Please ask Lady Wan to perform a stunning dance for us!"

As soon as Cao Qinmo said this, everyone in the room was shocked.

Not only was Zhen Huan, who was called out, stunned where she was, but even Yongzheng and the Queen, who were in the highest positions, had slightly changed expressions.

Different from Yongzheng's unpredictable expression, the Queen still had a smile on her face, but the smile did not reach her eyes.

Cao Qinmo...came up with this ingenious idea. Although it was nominally for the purpose of accumulating blessings for the little princess, it was also for the purpose of entertaining everyone.

But now it seems that this was clearly prepared in advance, so he was waiting here for Zhen Huan!

Realizing this, the queen's smile widened.

Never mind, it has nothing to do with her anyway, so she is happy to watch the show.

"The Jinghong Dance is said to have been composed by Tang Gaozong's concubine Mei Fei. It is a piece of music that is so magical that no one can perform it after so many years."

Just when the entire hall was in complete silence, Concubine Hua suddenly spoke up: "However, I vaguely heard someone say that when Empress Chunyuan was alive, she took great pains to restore her image, and it was extremely lifelike, as graceful as a swimming dragon or a stunning swan!"

"Hua Fei, don't you see how old Wan Guiren is? How can she perform such a stunning dance?"

Concubine Qi still remembered what the Queen had told her before, that she should target Concubine Hua as soon as she had the chance.

Now, it was clear that Concubine Hua was deliberately ridiculing Zhen Huan, so Concubine Qi felt that this was a good opportunity and began to confront her again.

"Besides, Empress Chunyuan's grace is unmatched. If Concubine Wan imitates the late Empress' dance, if she dances well, it would be nothing more than an ugly imitation of a beautiful woman. If she dances badly, it would inevitably be disrespectful. It's a dilemma. How do you want him to choose?"

When Concubine Qi said this, her tone was very fluent, and her eyes looking at Concubine Qi were full of pride.

However, the queen did not expect Concubine Qi to jump out at this time.

With every word Concubine Qi said, the smile on the Queen's face became dimmer.

What a stupid teammate!

You said that since Concubine Hua wants to make things difficult for Zhen Huan, just let her do as she pleases.

Concubine Qi had to intervene at this time. Isn't this stupid? What else could it be?

Having said that, seeing that Yongzheng rarely showed a look of approval towards Concubine Qi, the Queen silently closed her eyes.

Well, the emperor is now happy with anyone who can help Zhen Huan.

At this point, the queen didn't want to say anything more.

"What's wrong with this?"

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the drunken Prince Dun also decided to wade into the muddy water, and said with a big tongue: "Empress Chunyuan can do it, because Empress Chunyuan is a beautiful woman. I heard that the emperor has found a beautiful woman, and it is this Concubine Wan, but now it seems that she is just so-so. If she can't even dance this 'Jinghong Dance', she is really more useless than the singing girl in my mansion!"

At the end of his speech, Prince Dun burst into laughter, not caring at all that people around him were looking at him with embarrassment.

"How can you be so presumptuous in front of the Emperor! You've drunk too much, why don't you sober up!"

The wife of Prince Dun was almost scared to death by her husband. At this moment, she had a dark face. She first scolded Prince Dun, then asked him to shut his big mouth, and then apologized to Yongzheng.

"That's all."

Yongzheng looked at everyone arguing over this matter and his expression became very unpleasant.

No matter what the wife said, Prince Dun's words had already been spoken. Even though those present were all members of the royal family, Yongzheng knew very well that they were not of the same mind as him!

Therefore, this time, Zhen Huan had to jump whether she wanted to or not!

"Lady Wan, you can just dance as you like."

Yongzheng's tone sounded very calm, but the unquestionable feeling revealed in it made Zhen Huan feel a chill in her heart.

It seems that I have been caught up in a strange storm again.

"Yes." Zhen Huan took a deep breath and turned to look at Shen Meizhuang and An Lingrong. She saw that they were both looking at her with worried expressions. Her heart warmed up a little and she turned to Yongzheng and said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to change my clothes!"

Since dancing the Jinghong Dance is inevitable, she has no choice but to face the challenge!

"Well, you go."

Yongzheng also knew that his request to Zhen Huan was a bit unreasonable, but Prince Dun was really going too far. For the sake of his own dignity and face, he insisted that Zhen Huan dance.

Since Zhen Huan wanted to make some preparations, Yongzheng would certainly have no objection.

However, Prince Dun did not think so. He did not believe that a mere Zhen Huan could actually dance the "Jinghong Dance" that Queen Chunyuan had performed.

Therefore, after Zhen Huan asked Yongzheng to "change clothes", Prince Dun said with a smile: "I hope you really want to change clothes, and not run away and take the opportunity to pee!"

As soon as Prince Dun uttered this, not only did Yongzheng's face suddenly change from gloomy to stormy.

Even the Queen and others looked at this prince as if they had seen a ghost, thinking, he really is not afraid of death!

Maybe he feels that he is the son of the Holy Ancestor and a brother of the current emperor, so he is so fearless?

"you!"

Prince Dun's wife was almost mad at him as she watched her husband commit suicide again and again in front of the Emperor.

She really didn't want to care about Prince Dun, but when she thought of her children, she took a deep breath and prepared to apologize to Yongzheng again.

"Yun?! You are so presumptuous!"

Yongzheng had been patient and tolerant, but at this moment, he could no longer bear it. He ignored Fu Jin who was about to ask for forgiveness and said, "Come here! Bring Prince Dun out to me!"
