Did they stuff someone in there?
Luo Jianpeng was stunned for a moment, but then burst into laughter and said, "Qi Luo, you're so funny. The crew is missing a source of joy like you."
There's more to that than meets the eye.
It's obvious they want to finalize the decision to cast Ning Qiluo as Empress directly.
Luo Jianpeng was very satisfied. Whether it was Ning Qiluo's demeanor or her slightly humorous personality, she was very likable.
When Luo Jianpeng was halfway through his laughter, Ning Qiluo reluctantly told him the truth: "I really do have a baby in my belly, and I'm almost six months along."
Luo Jianpeng's smile froze.
The gaze returned to Ning Qiluo's stomach, and everyone around her was also staring at it.
Is there really a baby inside that round belly?
So, the crowd's gaze gradually shifted from inquiry and curiosity to surprise and disbelief. Under everyone's eager gaze, Ning Qiluo nodded again and said, "Actually, I really am pregnant."
Luo Jianpeng suddenly stumbled.
Someone helped him up from behind, and he was able to stand up with difficulty. His incredulous gaze remained fixed on Ning Qiluo's stomach.
"You're pregnant..."
"You're pregnant..."
"You really are pregnant!"
Luo Jianpeng was no stranger to big storms; he was a seasoned veteran who had seen it all, and nothing could shock him into being speechless.
But this time, it was really unexpected.
A new play was recruiting actors for auditions, but unexpectedly, a pregnant woman was chosen to audition.
The key point is that initially, without knowing that she was really pregnant, he showered her with praise and even thought that Ning Qiluo was a good candidate to play Empress Xiancheng.
It turns out she really was pregnant!
No wonder the pregnant woman's expression was so realistic!
"Miss Ning." Luo Jianpeng addressed her again, but this time he had changed his form of address.
Ning Qilu smiled modestly and said, "Just like before, you can just call me Qilu."
Luo Jianpeng stared at Ning Qiluo's stomach and asked, "You...you're really pregnant. Will this affect your audition?"
Seeing Luo Jianpeng's reaction, Ning Qiluo probably regretted speaking too soon. They needed to find an actress who could portray the demeanor of a pregnant woman, but it didn't necessarily have to be a real pregnant woman; after all, this was no small matter.
Many unavoidable accidents can happen during filming. If something really goes wrong, it will be a big deal and may even affect the entire crew.
Therefore, this is a very careful consideration and decision, and we cannot take risks lightly.
Thinking about all this, Ning Qiluo said, "I know your concerns, Director. How about this, I'll do an audition first. Aside from the fact that I'm actually pregnant, if you think everything else is fine, we can talk again. If you're not satisfied with my audition results, the final outcome is obvious."
So, it's mainly about watching the show.
Luo Jianpeng is also a straightforward person.
After all, he took a liking to Ning Qiluo's portrayal of Empress Xiancheng at first sight.
If it really works, then we'll make the decision and go with her.
...
The script for the audition was a section of Empress Xiancheng's lines from the original script of "Drunken Power Yao".
After receiving the audition notice last night, Ning Qiluo made a special effort to research Empress Xiancheng, whose love story with Emperor Mingzhen was indeed very profound.
After Empress Xiancheng passed away, Emperor Mingzhen did not appoint another empress.
This is a favor that even history acknowledges.
After reading the lines, Ning Qiluo spent a long time immersing herself in the story.
