Kangxi looked at Mingxiu helplessly and said, "You can walk around inside for a bit, okay? Don't wander around. I'll be done soon, and then I'll go with you for a walk."
Mingxiu nodded obediently, then watched as Chen Sheng pulled Kangxi away.
Looking around, Mingxiu realized that everyone was busy with their own things and that she seemed to be in the way, so she sat down in the spot Chen Sheng had pointed out earlier.
Mingxiu moved her stool a little further away so as not to disturb their work. After idly scrolling through her phone for a while, Mingxiu saw Kangxi come out from inside.
The moment Mingxiu saw Kangxi's attire, she knew why the director insisted on casting Kangxi in this role.
Although this is a story about love and hate in the martial arts world, the character of Kangxi is a villain and the former crown prince of the previous dynasty. Kangxi's noble and dignified demeanor makes him a perfect match for this role.
However, it must be admitted that Mingxiu was indeed thoroughly outmaneuvered by Kangxi.
With his flowing bangs, long hair, and black and gold patterned clothes, even without makeup, Kangxi exuded a noble, aloof, and elegant aura from the inside out.
Chen Sheng was also greatly impressed by Kangxi's experience. In fact, he had conceived of this role a long time ago, but he couldn't find a suitable candidate, so he just put it aside until he saw Ye Xuan. He knew at first glance that this person was Ouyang Ban, so he specifically contacted him, but was directly rejected.
After being rejected, Chen Sheng tried to find someone else, but he couldn't find a suitable candidate. Even after filming started, there was still no suitable candidate. However, because the role had a lot of screen time, he didn't want to just find someone to fill in. So he had no other choice. In addition, he was quite familiar with Ye Xuan, so he could only shamelessly persuade him to play the role. Today, after putting on the costume, Chen Sheng felt that his previous hard work had not been in vain.
Mingxiu has already started snapping photos; they look absolutely gorgeous.
Today was just for the official makeup photos. Kangxi came out and strolled around for a bit, and after everyone was satisfied, he went in to get his makeup done.
After the makeup was done, the whole person looked even more like the emperor. Mingxiu couldn't help but swallow hard as she looked at Kangxi taking his makeup photos. If it weren't for the different hair, she would have felt like she had been transported back to the Qing Dynasty for a moment.
Mingxiu stood behind the cameraman and took many photos of Kangxi, intending to admire them when she returned.
After taking the costume photos, Kangxi could stop and took Mingxiu for a stroll around Hengdian.
Mingxiu looked at the film crews passing by every now and then and sighed, "I wonder who they are, and if any of my favorite stars are among them."
"You should just honestly like me. Come on, you must be tired from the journey today. Let's go back to the hotel and rest for a bit. I'll take you out to see the world later." After saying that, Kangxi took Mingxiu's arm and went back.
Mingxiu looked at Kangxi with amusement. He spoke in a high-sounding manner, but in reality, he just didn't like him looking at other men.
That scoundrel, he's so stingy.
Mingxiu pouted and happily followed Kangxi back home.
It was indeed getting late, and Mingxiu was determined to take a good look around to see which celebrities were present.
Unexpectedly, this was the first time she had ever actually seen a celebrity in her two lifetimes.
"A dappled horse, a thousand pieces of gold, call the boy to exchange them for fine wine, to dispel our eternal sorrows together, tsk tsk tsk, you really took this role to the extreme." Mingxiu said, looking at Kangxi's script in the hotel.
This character is truly a prime example of living for the moment.
“Indeed, he’s the kind of person who lives for the moment, but I really can’t understand why someone like that would seek revenge,” Kangxi said, puzzled.
Mingxiu chuckled lightly: "You don't understand, do you? Look, your teacher gave you the script for the first few episodes. This kind of plot clearly shows that the man doesn't really want revenge, but the people behind him are pushing him along, which is why he's so conflicted."
Kangxi shook his head, he really didn't know the answer to this: "But since he promised to take revenge, he should do it properly. If he really doesn't like it, he should just deal with the people behind him. How can we keep forcing him to do things he doesn't like?"
Emperor Kangxi ascended the throne at a young age. Although many people initially forced him to do things he disliked, he eventually purged them all, ensuring they could no longer force him to do anything he didn't want to do.
"My goodness, who are you? You are the famous Emperor Kangxi in history! Not everyone has your abilities. He doesn't want to do these things. Without your abilities, he can only drown his sorrows in alcohol, can't he?" Mingxiu said helplessly.
Kangxi's lips curled up; Mingxiu's flattering words pleased him greatly.
The next morning, after getting ready, Kangxi looked at the person still lying in bed and said softly, "I'm leaving now. Call me when you get up, or come directly to me, okay? If you're hungry, just have the hotel send you some food."
After Kangxi finished speaking, he quietly watched the movements inside the quilt.
A moment later, a hand emerged from under the covers, made an OK sign, waved, and then crawled back under.
Emperor Kangxi left satisfied.
Mingxiu slept straight until noon. She sat up in bed in a daze, looked at the outside environment, scratched her hair, and finally woke up completely.
I got up, tidied myself up, and then ordered the hotel's food, which I ate slowly.
Mingxiu stared at the TV on her phone for a long time, but didn't know what to watch, so she simply stopped watching altogether.
When Mingxiu first arrived, she had already seen that the entertainment industry in this world was the same as in her previous world. There were many celebrities that Mingxiu already knew, and some of the TV shows and novels were also the same.
Mingxiu had initially thought that if there wasn't any, she could act as a porter and bring all of them over, so she even did a special search. As it turned out, they really did have everything, so Mingxiu had no choice but to give up her idea and honestly start writing.
After finishing her meal, Mingxiu told Kangxi and then prepared to stroll over. It wasn't far from the film set, so walking there was an option.
