Chapter 207 Making a fool of yourself and showing contempt
  Everyone spoke in a moderate voice. Shen Xinjiao, who was being discussed, bit her lips and regretted it, wishing she could hit her head to death.
  She originally thought that everyone would give her some face when she danced the Dongchen dance, but who knew that there would be such merciless comments.
  Shen Heshan felt extremely embarrassed and had to endure the situation with his colleagues. He couldn't get angry and his body was trembling.
  Shen Xinjiao recommended herself but failed. The emperor looked worried and obviously did not intend to say anything, so the queen had no choice but to say: "Miss Fourth is still young, and it is already very good to be able to dance like this."
  He also gave some symbolic rewards, but they were obviously worse than what he had just given to Princess Dundup.
  Dunzhu looked at the reward given to Shen Xinjiao by the Empress, and said with a smile: "Miss Shen's dance is very beautiful, in the style of Dongchen State, but she is not strong enough, and it is because she is young. It would be better if she practices for a few more years."
  "I didn't bring anything with me, so I borrowed flowers to offer to the Buddha. I gave one of the golden hairpins that the Queen gave me just now to Miss Fourth."
  This was clearly a slap in the face to Shen Xinjiao, in the name of excusing her.
  Shen Xinjiao's face turned red, she was both angry and embarrassed, but she couldn't care less.
  The surrounding chatter continued, but it was very small due to the emperor's sullen face. Every sentence was belittling Shen Xinjiao, and even ridiculing the Taishi Mansion.
  Shen Xinjiao's eyes were red and she looked at Shen Zhuoxi, hoping that she could help rescue him.
  Wei Zhiting was a little worried when she saw this scene. She looked at Shen Zhuoxi's expression and whispered, "This situation is not good. Shen Xinjiao is your sister, and now you are the only legitimate daughter of the Taishi Mansion."
  "Both will be prosperous and both will be harmed. The emperor is not too happy about it either. He may feel that Shen Xinjiao has disgraced Dongchen State. What are your plans?"
  "If Shen Xinjiao doesn't come forward, I will be the unlucky one." Shen Zhuoxi turned his head and whispered to Wei Zhiting: "Dunzhu's target at the beginning was me, but Xinjiao blocked it."
  "How do you know?" Wei Zhiting asked suspiciously.
  Shen Zhuoxi smiled faintly: "She said my name to the queen, and I saw the shape of her mouth. Moreover, the emperor agreed. It is probably because His Royal Highness King Yu did not show up."
  "But..." Wei Zhiting glanced in Dunzhu's direction, quite anxiously: "I'm afraid what those people said is the truth. You have only recovered a short time ago, and your literary talent is acceptable."
  "Dancing requires years of hard work and hard work. No one can do Shen Xinjiao's simple lower back dance just now, even those without skills can do it. Moreover, Princess Dunzhu's ribbon sword dance is considered to be the best and cannot be surpassed easily."
  "The emperor is already angry because of Shen Xinjiao. If you don't do well and stand short in front of the Rongqiang clan prince and princess, the emperor will definitely not let you go easily."
  Shen Zhuoxi picked up the tea in front of her and took a sip. Just as she was about to speak, the Queen suddenly spoke and said, "Miss Shen is young, so she is really good at doing this dance, and her courage is commendable."
  Everyone who was talking just now suddenly became silent.
  The Queen paused and continued: "I heard that Miss Shen Er is outstanding in learning, so she will definitely be good at it. Why don't you give Miss Shen a try?"
  With sweat on his forehead, Shen Heshan rushed in front of Shen Zhuoxi and said: "Queen, the dog girl has never learned to dance. I am afraid that I will make the magnanimous people laugh, so please take back your life."
  "Take it back?" The queen said with a smile on her face, but without any warmth: "The Grand Master is joking. The words you say are like water thrown out. How can you take them back?"
  "Yes." Although Princess Dunzhu didn't know why the queen and the emperor agreed to let Shen Zhuoxi come forward, she saw that there was something going on and said helpfully: "Just give it a try, and you won't lose any meat."
  "The dignified second young lady of Taishi's Mansion cannot be incapable of even this skill."
  An obvious provocation.
  In response, she would definitely not be able to dance and would end up making a fool of herself.
  Not saying anything means being cowardly and equally embarrassing.
  Whichever you choose is wrong.
  Everyone was silent, watching how Shen Zhuoxi responded.
  Some people are curious and curious, while others are eager for Shen Zhuoxi to make a fool of himself.
  After all, her life has been so smooth since she recovered. She is the only one who is protected by His Royal Highness King Yu and the Queen Mother!
  Facing the different eyes, Shen Zhuoxi stood up, bowed to the Queen, and said calmly: "I am willing to show my embarrassment. If I don't dance well, I ask the Queen to forgive me."
  "Okay." The Queen smiled and said, "Do you need the musicians to prepare anything?"
  "No need." Shen Zhuoxi glanced at the musician and said, "Just play the song that Princess Dundup used just now. It's majestic and majestic."
  As soon as he finished speaking, someone couldn't help but question: "Miss Shen Er didn't even change her dance clothes?"
  The clothes she wore today were really plain and dull, not suitable for dancing at all.
  Moreover, the outermost part of the clothes is a layer of gauze. If you make any big movements, you will definitely trip over your feet and fall into pieces.
  Shen Zhuoxi remained indifferent: "It's okay, I don't know how to dance. After watching Princess Dundup's dance, I came up with some ideas to make everyone laugh."
  "Oh, the second young lady is so arrogant, what should we worry about?" The man said with a hint of displeasure, "It's just a reminder."
  Shen Zhuoxi glanced at the person and vaguely remembered that she was the lady from the Earl's Mansion, but she couldn't remember who she was.
  The Queen didn't care about the man's interruption, and looked at Shen Zhuoxi with a warning: "The music played by Princess Dunzhu has a fast tempo, and I'm afraid it won't be in tune with Dongchen Guo's dance."
  "It's better to ask the musicians to change the song to a more suitable one, so as not to end it as soon as it begins."
  "Thank you very much for your kindness, Queen." Shen Zhuoxi was blessed again and knew the etiquette and etiquette: "My daughter is also going to dance the sword dance. The repertoire is correct. I just need to clear a table."
  The queen frowned, feeling that she was ungrateful, so she simply ordered the nanny: "Bring a table to the middle."
  Everyone doesn't know what Shen Zhuoxi is going to do. Does dancing require a table?
  Unable to suppress their curiosity, everyone began to speculate again——
  “What kind of dance could use a table?”
  "Who knows, just to impress people, she said it was a sword dance. Hehe, she probably doesn't even know the dance of the Dongchen Kingdom. How could she know the sword dance of the Rongqiang people?"
  "Then why did she respond to the call, and also use the same song in a big way? Isn't she sticking her face in to beat the princess of the Rongqiang tribe?"
  "Oh, she is willing to do it, but she has caused misfortune to us, and she has been embarrassed in front of the Rongqiang people one after another."
  "..."
  Even Dunzhu was quite surprised and interrupted: "Sword dance has no foundation and it is impossible to master it easily. Miss Shen Er should think carefully before she hurts herself."
  "Thank you for your concern, princess." When Shen Zhuoxi looked at Dunzhu, his eyes were a little sharper: "I have no foundation, I have never practiced before, I don't know anything, and the same is true for other dances."
  "Watching Princess Dundup's sword dance is really cool. It doesn't hurt to give it a try. I just want to borrow Princess Dundup's sword to use."
  Dunzhu felt a sense of contempt in his heart - the rumored second lady of the Shen family in Shengdu was nothing more than that.
  She responded and said, "Use it as you wish, as long as you don't get hurt."
  The disdain in my heart became even worse.
  Humph, she really thinks she is a god. She has practiced sword dancing since she was a child to achieve her current results. Shen Zhuoxi watched it once and expected to be able to do it?
  what!
  Doza, the eldest son of the Rongqiang clan, frowned deeply as he watched this scene, unable to guess the purpose of Shen Zhuoxi's actions.
  Shen Zhuoxi ignored everyone's suspicions, glanced at the musician, and signaled that it was time to start.
