After Zhao Chengjun left, the dancers only dared to surround her, "Miss Tang, was that Prince Jing just now?"

Tang Shishi nodded triflingly, "It's him."

The dancers covered their mouths in astonishment and jabbered, "It turned out to be Wangye, I have grown so old and have never seen a real imperial family member."

"Shut up." The leading dancer scolded, "The prince is as noble as jade, how can you talk about him so casually?"

After finishing speaking, the leading dancer looked at Tang Shishi with vigilance eyes, "Miss Tang, the dance that Wangye talked about just now... is it true?"

"Of course." Tang Shishi wanted to roll her eyes, but she was afraid of others would found out. She could only silently cursed Jing Wang and said with reverence, "Prince Jing never joked. Whatever he said, he will get it done."

"Ah..." There were voices of different volumes from the dancers, some worried and some surprised. Looking at some spirited dancers, Tang Shishi suddenly asked, "How long have you been practicing your dance?"

"One month."

Tang Shishi showed a look of despair and asked, "How long have you been dancing together? How about tacit understanding among you?"

The lead dancer said, "Miss Tang, from the moment the newest junior girl joined, we have been practicing dancing together for two years now."

"Two years..." Tang Shishi's eyes became dark. They have been dancing together for two years and still need to spend a month practicing this dance. Hence, the probability of Tang Shishi learning this dance in a quarter of an hour would be small.

Without any hope, Tang Shishi asked, "Is your formation complicated? Is it possible to add one more person temporarily?"

"This..." The dancers were embarrassed and shook their heads slightly. "I'm afraid it won't work."

Tang Shishi also felt it was impossible. She was running out of time, and at the last moment disrupting the formation will only make the situation worse. Tang Shishi looked at the leading dancer, "We are about the same figure. Give me your dance clothes and I will dance for you. Don't worry, your reward is indispensable."

Of course, the leading dancer did not dare to refuse Tang Shishi, so she had to give up her clothes obediently. Tang Shishi chose the most comfortable venue regardless of her age or social status and immediately let the lead dancer teach her to dance. For a quarter of an hour, they all went into battle together and taught Tang Shishi all their movements.

However, the time was still too rush. After Tang Shishi learned the dance moves, she did not even have time to rehearse with the team, and someone came from the banquet hall. The eunuch stood at the doorway and said with a smile, "Miss Tang, it's your turn to go on stage."

The eunuch came, which showed that this was a person sent by Zhao Chengjun. Tang Shishi knew that delaying time was hopeless, so she could only take a deep breath and smiled, "Coming at once."

Tang Shishi comforted herself in her heart that when the boat arrived at the bridge, it would be straightened no matter what. Maybe she was exceptionally gifted and would not make any mistakes without rehearsing.

The dancers were dancing the Dunhuang's dance. Their clothes were close-fitting and brightly colorful. They have many jingles bracelets on their hands and ankles, and masks on their faces, full of exotic flair. Tang Shishi was a little grateful for the mask. Fortunately, her face was covered. As long as Zhao Chengjun did not say it, no one knew that the person on the stage was Tang Shishi. Even if she failed, she would only lose face in front of Prince Jing.
