Xu Zhaozhao almost tripped and made a fool of herself.
But his heart started beating faster than usual because of what he said.
Following Gu Qingyan, they arrived at the filming location.
"Quiet--!"
The director shouted again, and the previously noisy scene gradually quieted down.
Xu Zhaozhao was also brought back to her senses by this shout.
"Action!"
At the same time, the director slammed down the clapperboard.
All eyes were on Gu Qingyan and Xu Zhaozhao, who were standing in the center of the photo booth.
In an instant, they seemed to transform into Shangguan Du and Zhaoyue.
On the fifteenth, Shangguandu admired the moon at the pond in the backyard of Zhaoyue Palace.
"What brings Your Majesty here today?"
Zhao Yue walked closer to Shangguandu, saying, "This moon is probably more beautiful in the Taihe Palace."
Shangguan Du lowered his head, turned to look at Zhaoyue, and the two looked at each other without saying a word.
Finally, Shangguan Du stepped towards her and took her hand. "A-Yue, tomorrow is the coronation ceremony."
He looked down at their intertwined hands and said, "After tomorrow, you will be my empress."
Zhao Yue lowered her eyes and gave a barely audible "hmm".
"Okay, card—!"
In the quiet filming location, the director's voice rang out clearly, "Cut!"
It even angered the onlookers.
What's with the card?!
Zhao Yue and Shangguan Du, keep acting!! I haven't had enough!!
Being forcibly pulled out of the drama is painful not for the two lead actors, but for the onlookers.
Although there are only a few green sheets, they make you feel like there is a pond and a moon.
After hearing the director say "cut," Xu Zhaozhao breathed a huge sigh of relief and shook off Gu Qingyan's hand.
Because she had to immediately prepare for the second shoot.
The man could only slow down her speed in drawing her sword.
The second scene was Xu Zhaozhao's solo scene, and as soon as it ended, a large number of staff members surrounded her.
"Zhaoyue, Furong, get ready!"
Furong is the second female lead, played by Yuan Li. On the surface, she is Zhaoyue's personal maid, but in reality, she is a Miao girl with superb seductive skills.
"Action!"
The sound of a clapperboard being struck could be heard.
At the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), in Zhaoyue's bedroom, she was doing her hair and makeup.
Furong lifted the curtain and walked towards her. "Your Majesty, it's time to get ready, or you'll miss the auspicious time."
Zhao Yue paused in her combing of her hair, then gently put the comb down.
"good."
“Someone come here!” Furong called out.
The palace maids, who were extras, filed in one after another, carrying things.
Zhaoyue was ushered behind the screen.
*Smack*
All the lights went out, except for the light shining through the screen, revealing the girl's graceful figure.
Zhaoyue was stripped down to her inner garment, which was visible through the screen, making it almost as if she wasn't wearing anything at all.
Gu Qingyan and Yu Yao, who had no scenes to perform, just watched her act from the sidelines.
When the lights went out, Gu Qingyan took a step forward, blocking Yu Yao's view.
The royal robe he wore was so large that it completely blocked Yu Yao's view.
"If you don't know where to look, you can gouge your eyes out."
In order not to affect the filming on the other side, Gu Qingyan kept his voice very low.
Yu Yao could hear it.
Not wanting to waste time with Gu Qingyan, she unconsciously moved her feet to the side.
It was as if that guy had eyes in the back of his head; he followed him around, making sure Xu Zhaozhao was out of his sight.
After a while, the two were locked in a stalemate.
Finally, Yu Yao saw Xu Zhaozhao behind the screen.
However, the person behind the screen was already dressed in a phoenix robe, her back straight, and her exquisite headdress swayed gracefully as she stepped out of the screen.
She has finished dressing.
Yu Yao's eyelashes drooped. "Can you control my eyes? Can you control the countless eyes here?"
He wasn't looking at Gu Qingyan in front of him, but those words were indeed spoken to Gu Qingyan.
Others appreciate beauty, but you want to defile it.
Gu Qingyan's voice carried a warning, "We're all men, there's no need to pretend."
When they appeared on the children's variety show, there was no cross-border behavior between the two.
But a man's intuition can sometimes be more accurate than a woman's.
When Gu Qingyan noticed that his gaze never left Xu Zhaozhao, he became certain of his guess.
His brilliance can be appreciated by others, but it cannot be taken away from him.
She can shine, but only when she's by his side.
This is Gu Qingyan's possessiveness.
The director hasn't yelled "cut" yet, and filming is still going on.
"Your Majesty, you are so beautiful."
Furong came to Zhaoyue, who had finished dressing up, and kept circling around her, making sounds of amazement.
"This phoenix robe was tailor-made for Your Majesty!"
Zhao Yue didn't answer. She slowly walked to the bronze mirror and looked at herself in her gorgeous robes.
She showed no joy or anticipation at becoming empress; her eyes were filled with unfamiliarity.
"Hibiscus..."
Her voice was soft and ethereal, "If I were to wear this phoenix robe and throw myself into the river, would Shangguan Du hate me for the rest of his life?"
"Your Majesty!"
Furong's expression changed, and her voice became more forceful.
"Card--!"
The director glanced at Yuan Li and Xu Zhaozhao, paused, and then continued, "Very good, that's a wrap."
Xu Zhaozhao relaxed instantly and exhaled a deep breath.
Passing both tests on the first try was undoubtedly the greatest encouragement for her.
Yuan Li leaned against the bronze mirror and smiled at her, "Wow, Sister Zhao, how many years have you been pretending to be weak while actually being strong?"
The look in Xu Zhaozhao's eyes when she saw herself in the bronze mirror truly startled Yuan Li.
"Sister Li is a good leader."
Xu Zhaozhao also gave a compliment in return.
This phoenix crown is really heavy. Xu Zhaozhao was barely hanging on, and her neck almost gave way.
While things were harmonious and joyful on this side, the scene on Gu Qingyan's side was quite different.
"Senior Gu, you've kept Sister Zhaozhao by your side, guess what..."
As the director spoke, Yu Yao's voice only reached Gu Qingyan's ears: "Will she hold a grudge against you for the rest of her life?"
His fists clenched, his expression turned cold, and he suppressed the urge to punch this guy on set.
Sister my foot!
Gu Qingyan only regretted that he hadn't discovered this guy's intentions sooner and kicked him out of the crew.
At this moment, Xu Zhaozhao, who had temporarily removed her phoenix crown, found Gu Qingyan and quickly walked towards her.
She nudged his arm twice, her smile bright, "Your Majesty, what are you standing there for?"
The unconscious little gesture instantly calmed Gu Qingyan's restless emotions.
The filming went smoothly, which made Xu Zhaozhao very happy.
Gu Qingyan, beneath his wide sleeves, took her hand and praised her without reservation, "The Empress is so handsome!"
He didn't use "beautiful," he used "handsome"...
The shameless Xu Zhaozhao was a little shy.
"Zhaoyue, Shangguandu, Shangguan Jie, take your positions! Extras, take your positions!"
After a short break, the director started shouting again, and everyone got moving.
We're about to start filming today's big scenes.
During the coronation ceremony, the two brothers fought fiercely over Zhaoyue, officially setting the stage for the cremation.
