The clip of the trailer for "Powerful Intrigue" was edited and released on the official Weibo soon, sparking a heated discussion online.
In the rest area, Lu Wenxing and Gu Yanshen walked in with a tablet, while Wen Miao and Xu Yichen sat in a row with a few people. At first glance, they looked like children sitting in a row in a kindergarten.
"Hurry up, I haven't seen the finished film yet."
“I haven’t seen it yet either.”
The trailer started playing, and Lu Wenxing and Gu Yanshen joined them with two small stools.
A childish voice sounded.
"I, Feng Xiao, swear to heaven that I will never compete with my brother, the Crown Prince, for the throne. He is the king and I am the minister. I will keep this promise for my entire life, at any cost."
In the picture, a child in a purple robe is kneeling upright on the ground, looking up at his Jade Concubine.
"Mother, I'm done."
Yu Fei's beautiful brows furrowed.
"How many times have I told you not to call me mother? Your mother is the Empress, and the Crown Prince is your biological brother. You have to accept my calling you the Seventh Prince and bowing to you."
"But……"
——Snap.
The slap landed, and five finger marks were immediately left on the delicate little face.
"I am of humble origin, and I am not worthy of being called mother. If you do it again, you don't have to come to my yard again."
"Feng Xiao knows he was wrong. Don't chase Feng Xiao away. Feng Xiao won't do it again."
The five or six-year-old child lowered his head, tears as big as beans fell to the ground, he was afraid that he would be driven out of the yard by his mother, and said with sobs.
"Feng Xiao's mother is the Empress Dowager, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is Feng Xiao's biological brother. Feng Xiao will be filial to the Empress Dowager and respect the Crown Prince for the rest of his life."
Yu Fei turned her head away, unable to bear to look at the little boy on the ground. Tears quietly rolled down her cheeks and she covered them with her sleeves.
The screen was filled with yellow sand, and Feng Xiao was walking slowly towards them on horseback.
There is a subtitle in the upper right corner: The previous emperor passed away, and his half-brother Fengsheng tampered with the imperial edict and ascended the throne himself.
"Have you heard? General Xiao has returned victoriously and will arrive in Kyoto tomorrow."
"Really? I've heard of General Xiao's reputation for a long time. If I could meet him at the city gate, it would be a wish come true."
"What? General Xiao is back in Beijing! What are you waiting for, sisters? This is a rare opportunity."
"I want to go."
On the way, I met a few burly men surrounding the young man in white clothes. "Young man passing by, please save me."
"If you don't want to be punished, get out now."
Feng Xiao used three moves and two styles to make the bandits flee in all directions.
Lu Feixue's eyes fell on Feng Xiao, and her handsome face was full of admiration. "I can't repay you for saving my life, I can only repay you with my body."
"……roll."
The palace banquet began with singing and dancing.
"Tonight's palace banquet is to celebrate General Xiao's achievements, to welcome him, and thirdly... I will reward General Xiao with a mansion and ten boxes of gold, silver and treasures. From now on, General Xiao will live in Kyoto and be named King Xiao. Do you think this is meaningful, my dear ministers?"
The important officials in the audience looked at each other, and finally kowtowed together, "We have no objection."
"I have another reward. The Great General Protecting the Nation has a beloved daughter who is extremely beautiful and a perfect match for Prince Xiao."
…
On a rainy night, Feng Xiao grabbed Prince Feng Yue.
"Brother, please listen to my explanation."
"I'm not your royal brother." Feng Yue stretched out his hand, pushed Feng Xiao, and ran into the rainy night.
Feng Xiao looked at the figure of Crown Prince Feng Yue dejectedly as he left. Suddenly, the rain stopped falling. Feng Xiao raised his head dully. An oil-paper umbrella was propped above his head. Standing behind him was Lu Feixue.
…
"Husband and wife bow to each other."
The two people, dressed in wedding clothes, completed their final bow.
"The ceremony is over. Send Prince Xiao and Princess Xiao to the bridal chamber."
The scene turned to the rooftop, where Feng Xiao was lying on the tiles, watching the two of them step into the bridal chamber, with a smile on his face, "Congratulations, Prince Brother got what he wanted."
"Is this the solution you came up with?"
Feng Xiao turned his head and saw Lu Feixue squatting on the tile house nervously.
"You're willing to cut your own face just to get the emperor to agree to let you wear a mask at your wedding? And then let the prince wear a mask and pretend to be you to marry Xue Qingruo?"
"That's a good idea." Feng Xiao took a sip of wine. He was in a good mood and was willing to talk to Lu Feixue more. "Look, lovers finally get married."
Lu Feixue complained, "Can you help me up? I can't stand steadily."
Feng Xiao smiled and said, "Why did you come up if you can't stand steadily?"
"You said that lovers will eventually marry." Lu Feixue smiled brightly, "If you don't come down, I will have to come up to find you."
Feng Xiao was stunned for a moment, his eyes full of Lu Feixue's smile.
The next moment, the scene turned to a snowy winter.
"Lu Feixue, I have taken back what you owed me. From now on, we are even and we will never see each other again."
Feng Xiao threw down his fox fur cape and left resolutely.
——With a thump.
Feng Yue smashed the long sword down, "Feng Xiao, I wish you were dead. I will never forgive you."
"Feng Xiao, you are so cruel."
Lu Feixue wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said, "In your heart, apart from helping your brother, the crown prince, ascend the throne, there is really no room for anything else."
"Yes." Feng Xiao looked at him coldly.
"Have you ever thought about it? Does your prince brother really want to sit on the throne? You put in so much effort, but in the end it's all in vain. He doesn't need you, he hates you, he... uh."
Feng Xiao grabbed Lu Feixue's neck, with a fierce look in his eyes, "Stay away from me, or I will really kill you."
"You won't kill me. You just can't bear to hurt anyone. The only person you've hurt from beginning to end is yourself."
Lu Feixue held Feng Xiao's wrist, but let Feng Xiao pinch her neck, with a gleam in her eyes.
"Feng Xiao, no matter what you want to do, let me accompany you, okay?"
After the trailer ended, Wen Miao was still immersed in Lu Feixue's last words, with a pure smile on her face.
"That's great! Woohoo, let me stay with you."
Xu Yichen shook his head and sighed, "I also said this to you in the play."
"oh."
Wen Miao didn't care. She looked at Lu Wenxing with burning eyes.
"what?"
Meeting Wen Miao's strange gaze, Lu Wenxing immediately became alert.
"Interview Xingxing. When filming this scene, Brother Shen looked at you tenderly and affectionately. Was there a moment that made you fall for him?"
The crew of "Powerful Intrigue" is also known as the "Melon-eating Squad". As soon as Wen Miao finished speaking, everyone present looked at Lu Wenxing, even Gu Yanshen, who was a melon eater, looked at Lu Wenxing with curiosity.
Lu Wenxing: “…”
Gu Yanshen's eyes dropped, Lu Wenxing raised his eyes, looked at him, and answered.
"Yes, I have."
"What, what? Did I hear wrong?"
Several people widened their eyes. They didn't expect Lu Wenxing to take this question seriously. The sudden answer stunned everyone present.
Gu Yanshen's heart skipped a beat and he looked at Lu Wenxing in surprise, only to hear him speak slowly.
"Feng Xiao must have fallen."
Gu Yanshen: “…” His mood fluctuated greatly.
Everyone: “…” My stomach was fully prepared, but there’s not even any melon rind?
"Let's go, let's go." Xu Yichen stood up, as if he was going to collect the chair. "The melon field is gone."
"Alas, it turns out that there is no such thing as a ripe fruit falling off the tree."
"I left disappointed."
"I don't care! I can be single, but the couple I support must be real."
Wen Miao's words once again stabilized the army's morale.
"That makes sense. My CP will come true sooner or later."
"Wait for a 'together'. Before that, I don't believe in any clarification."
Lu Wenxing propped up his chin, watching the jokes with a smile in his eyes. Filming on the set was tiring, but the artists in the same group were easy to get along with, and even the fatigue disappeared as they joked around.
His eyes moved and met Gu Yanshen's slightly helpless look.
"Does it bother you much?"
Gu Yanshen was still immersed in disappointment, "What?"
"They are joking, don't take it seriously."
Obviously, Lu Wenxing mistakenly thought that Gu Yanshen was helpless because the entire crew was supporting the couple.
Gu Yanshen was silent for a moment, "Actually, you can keep it in mind."
Um? ? ?
Take it to heart?
Take this matter to heart?
Lu Wenxing was confused for a while. Was that what he thought it meant?
Gu Yanshen stood up and rubbed his furry head. Other artists in the crew also liked to rub Lu Wenxing's hair, saying that his hair was soft and felt good to the touch.
Then, Lu Wenxing asked Chen Che to buy a lot of smooth wigs for everyone.
Everyone who received the gift unexpectedly: "..."
"Teacher Gu." Lu Wenxing sat on the chair, looking up at him with a face full of resentment, "I will go bald."
"No." Gu Yanshen chuckled.
"It's not your hair, you don't feel bad at all."
"I feel bad, I really feel bad." Gu Yanshen's dark eyes were tinged with a smile, "Only let me touch it, I won't go bald."
Lu Wenxing: “…”
He discovered that Gu Yanshen had been saying some weird and naughty things recently. He suspected that Gu Yanshen was so immersed in the role of Lu Feixue that even his cool and aloof personality was deviated.
"Tsk. If you two had restrained yourself a little, I wouldn't have been so crazy."
"That's right."
"What are you talking about?" Wen Miao interrupted, "Brother Shen and Xingxing, please don't consider my feelings and don't hold back. I have low blood sugar and I need some sweets from my CP."
During the college entrance examination season, in order to provide candidates with a quiet examination environment, many cities are advocating that factories or construction buildings stop operations.
Qin Yu generously gave them a holiday, and Lu Wenxing flew directly back to City C to accompany Xie Chengfei to take the college entrance examination.
Gu Yanshen also accompanied him to take the exam.
The night before the exam, Gu Yanning moved into Gu Yanshen's house as he wished. Without his parents' supervision, he felt so free.
"Don't be happy. Dad and Auntie will be waiting for you outside the examination room tomorrow."
"Ah?" Gu Yanning collapsed in a second, looking sad, "Parents waiting outside the examination room, that's not cool at all."
"You should go to bed."
"I don't want to. It's only what time. You're making me nervous. I usually go to bed at twelve o'clock."
Gu Yanshen looked at him expressionlessly, "Go to bed at 12 o'clock today, get up at 10 o'clock tomorrow, and go to the entrance of the examination room to wait for other candidates to come out. Is that cool?"
"But I just couldn't sleep."
Gu Yanshen ignored him and went back to his bedroom. Gu Yanning followed him like a tail, "What are you doing?"
"I'm so bored in the hall alone. I'll stay in your bedroom for a while. You won't be sleeping anyway."
"Go back to your room."
"I won't." Gu Yanning slipped directly under Gu Yanshen's arm, "I'll just stay for a while."
Gu Yanshen suddenly smiled, "You are still afraid of the dark, you are already eighteen."
"No, I'm just bored and alone. The hall is so bright, I have nothing to be afraid of."
Gu Yanshen was too lazy to expose him.
Gu Yanning sat down on the sofa. His brother's room was still so monotonous and boring... His eyes moved around and suddenly fell on a portrait.
Gu Yanning didn't think his brother would be so narcissistic as to buy a portrait of him, and he understood immediately. "Brother, who gave you this painting?"
Gu Yanshen raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Do I need to report to you?"
Gu Yanning leaned in closer and saw the date of painting in the lower right corner of the portrait, but there was no signature. He said with certainty, "It was sent by Xingxing."
Gu Yanshen put down the book in his hand and raised his eyelids to meet Gu Yanning's proud gaze.
"Are you curious about how I know this?" Gu Yanning was able to win back a rare match, and he immediately showed off. "I won't tell you unless you tell my parents not to come tomorrow."
"Not curious."
Gu Yanshen withdrew his gaze and continued to flip through the book in his hand.
Less than five minutes later, Gu Yanning was the first to lose his temper and asked, "Are you really not curious?"
Gu Yanshen ignored him. Gu Yanning was feeling uncomfortable and told everything with a sour face.
“Because the words on the painting are so easy to recognize.”
"Didn't you ask me before why I liked Lu Wenxing?"
Before becoming a fan of Lu Wenxing, Gu Yanning's idols were all members of girl groups. His idol collapsed for every one he chased. Gu Yanshen was not surprised by this.
"Xingxing was not famous at the time, and the agency he signed with always exploited him. He had never appeared on the big screen, so I didn't know him at all. I knew him because... my homeroom teacher was Xingxing's teacher."
Gu Yanshen shifted his gaze away from the book again.
"I often skipped classes at that time. When I was caught by the head teacher that day, I thought he would call my parents again. But he didn't. He told me a story instead."
"About the stars?"
"right."
City C holds a provincial painting competition every year, which is organized by University C. High school students who win the first prize can be directly admitted without taking the college entrance examination. Of course, the majors admitted are also design and painting.
"Xingxing won a prize?"
To Gu Yanshen's surprise, Gu Yanning shook his head. "After the results of the competition came out, Lu Wenxing didn't even get a rank, let alone a prize."
Gu Yanshen cannot judge Lu Wenxing's painting skills in the professional field, but as a non-professional, Gu Yanshen likes Lu Wenxing's paintings very much.
"At that time, my head teacher and subject teachers went to comfort Xingxing, telling him not to be sad and to concentrate on preparing for the college entrance examination."
But Lu Wenxing remained very calm. He was not unhappy and continued to prepare for the exam as usual.
"Just before the college entrance examination, University C called our school and said that Lu Wenxing's entry had been swapped out. The student who originally won the first prize actually submitted a work that was drawn by Lu Wenxing."
"Everyone thought that the problem was discovered by the teachers and professors of C University, but it wasn't...it was Lu Wenxing himself."
When the first-place student took Lu Wenxing's painting to the stage to receive the award, Lu Wenxing did not make any statement or explain to anyone. Without anyone knowing, Lu Wenxing quietly contacted the teacher of C University and produced double evidence.
Lu Wenxing later took the college entrance examination, proving with his actions that whether in painting or studying, he could get the results he wanted through his own efforts.
What the head teacher wanted to say to Xie Chengfei was, "Fighting and skipping classes are neither cool nor awesome. Being calm and composed like Lu Wenxing when faced with a situation, handling it calmly, without making a sound and yet taking people by surprise, is awesome."
Gu Yanshen did not express surprise or sigh after hearing this. He was concerned about something else.
Lu Wenxing had encountered too many bad things before he met him. His works were used by others and he almost took the place of the recommended student. After entering university, he met Mango Entertainment and had an agent like Wang Man.
Gu Yanshen found it a bit strange. It seemed that Lu Wenxing was unlucky and always ran into trouble, but these things seemed a bit deliberate, which made him have to pay attention.
He called an old professor he knew at C University.
"Hello, Teacher Wang."
"Yan Shen!"
"It's me." Gu Yanshen was filming a movie before. Due to professional requirements, he was introduced by a friend and had the honor of meeting Professor Wang. He also received Professor Wang's professional guidance. "Sorry to bother you so late."
"Well, you know that I've become a night owl because of those students. I don't go to bed that early." Professor Wang smiled. "You're calling at this time. Is there something going on?"
"Yes. I have something I want to trouble you with, teacher." Gu Yanshen summed it up in a few words.
"You're a student from the School of Art. No problem. I'll ask for you."
Professor Wang acted quickly and replied to Gu Yanshen in less than ten minutes.
"I have said hello to them. If you have any questions, you can ask Professor Xu from the Art Academy. He was in charge of that competition."
"Professor Xu still finds it strange that everyone is asking about this all of a sudden."
All?
Gu Yanshen: "Who else?"
"Two days ago, Wen Zheng, the president of Wen Group, also went to C University to ask about this matter."
Wen Zheng?
Gu Yanshen’s first reaction was not why Wen Zheng was investigating this matter. His focus was on... whether Wen Zheng had also discovered something wrong.
The author has something to say: Brother and Shen Shen formed the Avengers (bu shi novel thing... The Internet has memory, brother will find out~
