How to save an HTML tag as string into database?

I am using a TINYMCE text editor and I want to store text in database.

But when I tried to insert data in database using Insert query I found the error like "A potentially dangerous Request".Form value was detected from the client

TEXT THAT I HAVE WRITTEN IN EDITOR 

    for that i have used
    EncodedString = System.Web.HttpUtility.HtmlEncode(Request.Form["txtcontent"]);

But it doesn't encode the tag..

First off, I'd recommend using a Model binding instead of Request.Form[].

For the actual question at hand, you'd want to add the AllowHtmlAttribute to the property which has the HTML.

Example View Model

public class MyViewModel
{
    public string Name {get;set; }

    [AllowHtml]
    public string Content { get; set; }
}
