Master of Chinese Opera

Chapter 205 A Different Deduction
When Shen Yuelou said that she is my butterfly, Li Xiqiao's eyes slowly turned to the direction of Shen Yuelou's line of sight, as if there really was a butterfly that just flew away there.

The scene was very quiet and no one spoke. Zhang Cheng looked at the picture he just took again and applauded first.

Then, the applause slowly rang out.

From the beginning to the present, Shen Yuelou only said one line, she is my butterfly, but his performance made all the actors present recognize his acting skills.

Wu Junmei looked at Mei Jinxia and smiled, "Did you hear that, she said you were his butterfly."

Mei Jinxia shook her head and said, "The original script doesn't seem to have this line, but when I think about the future plot, this line is so beautiful that it breaks my heart."

Gong Xue took Wu Junmei's hand and said with a smile: "Jinxia is his butterfly, so what are we his? I am the queen, you are the imperial concubine, and we are actually compared by his cousin."

"It was a good performance, better than I expected."

Director Zhang Cheng gave a rare compliment, and suddenly said to Shen Yuelou seriously: "It's just that next time you break away from the script, it's best to discuss it with the actors who are acting first. Not every actor has the adaptability of Mr. Xiqiao. Ordinary actors, I'm afraid they can't keep up with your thinking."

Li Xiqiao hurriedly laughed and said, "Hehe, I just acted for a few years more than others, and I just have some experience."

Shen Yuelou nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, Director Zhang taught me that next time, I will definitely say hello in advance."

If the actors don't act according to the original script, it will indeed cause a lot of trouble for the actors in the play. Shen Yuelou didn't intend to break away from the script.

It's just that, sometimes when a flash of inspiration occurs, the flash of inspiration is beyond my control, and I have to enter a specific situation, which is not something that can be expected in advance.

Pei Qingfeng and Chai Xun watched with smiles all the time, and were very satisfied with Boss Shen's performance. Even the producer Han Yuanzhen nodded slightly and did not criticize anymore.

After the transition, Zhang Cheng filmed the scene where Eunuch Lan went to report to the Queen Mother, while Shen Yuelou went back to the nearby dressing room to clean up his appearance, and even changed into a set of formal court clothes.

Next, it's his rivalry with Zhou Hechun.

Before this rivalry scene, there is still a plot and background foreshadowing. Of course, these scenes outside the palace have not been filmed yet, so we will focus on filming what happened inside the palace first.

Chai Yuan grew up gradually, and the time has come to [-].

At this time, China has no leader, and there are many factions of Beiyang warlords. There is also the famous government-court dispute in Chinese history between President Li who has no real power and Prime Minister Duan who secretly controls the situation.

Under such a background of the times, Chai Yuchuan, the little princess, was expelled from the palace by the Queen Mother, and returned to Yongwang Mansion from the palace.

After the little princess returned to Prince Yong's mansion, Prince Yong planned to marry her to Beiyuan and ration her as his wife.

Before getting married, Chai Feng also asked his daughter to recognize General Kawashima of Yingzhou as her adoptive father.

However, making peace with Bei Yuan is a major event between the two countries, and must be approved by the Great Zhou Emperor.

So, in the main hall of the imperial palace, Prince Yong gathered his ministers together and wrote a letter to Chai Yuan about this matter.

"Uncle Wang don't need to say anymore, I will never agree to this marriage!"

Shen Yuelou suddenly stood up from the dragon chair, and said to the officials in the hall righteously: "Bei Yuan is only a handful of small states, what qualifications do you have to marry the princess of my celestial dynasty?"

The officials in the palace looked at each other, not knowing how to answer the words for a moment, they had to turn their heads to look at Prince Yong.

Zhou Hechun took a step forward, sighed and said: "Your Majesty, today is different, the small country of Cuoer still has an army and territory, but our Great Zhou has no place to belong to and no soldiers to use.

Now that Yuan Thief is dead, Duan and Li are having a dispute between the government and the court. This is a good opportunity for us to restore the orthodoxy of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The dispute between the government and the court is getting bigger and bigger. Marshal Zhang of Jinling will soon come to Beijing to mediate. General Kawashima has already told me that Marshal Zhang has secretly contacted Dongying, saying that he intends to restore the imperial system and wants His Majesty to re-enter. Dabao, I hope to get support from Japan.

After he succeeded, he didn't want much, he just asked His Majesty to grant him the title of king with a different surname.

Of course, before that, he needs His Majesty to marry his 12-year-old daughter Zhang Wenxiu and canonize her as Queen of the Great Zhou Dynasty. "

"A king with a different surname? Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty?"

Shen Yuelou mocked lightly: "This Marshal Zhang really has a lot of appetite."

After mocking this sentence, he suddenly turned his head to look at Zhou Hechun, and said meaningfully: "Uncle Huang has been getting very close to Dongying people recently, and they even told you such a confidential matter."

Hearing Shen Yuelou's words, the expression of Prince Yong played by Zhou Hechun suddenly changed.

He knelt down on the ground immediately: "Your Majesty, I have learned that there is no private transaction between the minister and the Dongying people. Everything I do is for the country and society of the Great Zhou."

"Hey, what is the emperor doing?"

Shen Yuelou suddenly helped Zhou Hechun up with a kind face: "I have never doubted the loyalty of the emperor, but they must have a plan to help China restore orthodoxy. I don't believe that the Dongying people will have such kindness."

Zhou Hechun frowned and said: "Your Majesty's worry is not unreasonable, but compared to the schemes of the Dongying people, it is more important to regain power from the Republic of China government. You might as well agree to the two conditions of Marshal Zhang first.

It won't be too late to take care of him when His Majesty regains control of the world.

With Marshal Zhang's army, coupled with the support of Dongying people and Beiyuan, the restoration of orthodoxy is just around the corner. "

After listening to Zhou Hechun's words, Shen Yuelou pondered for a while, then slowly sat back on the dragon chair.

"I can promise to marry Zhang's daughter, but I can't make peace with Bei Yuan."

Zhou Hechun led all the officials to kneel down together: "I implore Your Majesty to put the great Zhou's country and society as the most important thing."

"Retreat!"

Shen Yuelou snorted coldly, ignored them, got up and left the hall directly.

Seeing that the emperor could not be persuaded, the ministers stopped kneeling stupidly and went home.

Glancing at the direction in which the emperor was leaving, Prince Yong's eyes flashed, and he sneaked into the Queen Mother's bedroom.

It turned out that Prince Yong Chaifeng had always had an affair with Queen Mother Guo.

This can be regarded as a palace secret.

After some tenderness, Queen Mother Guo agreed to persuade the emperor to agree with the little princess to go to Beiyuan for marriage on behalf of Prince Yong.

It's just that she wants to leave the position of queen to her niece Guo Wanyi.

She asked Prince Yong to discuss with Zhang Dashuai, Zhang's daughter can only be named a concubine.

This matter is not difficult to handle, Prince Yong agreed immediately upon hearing it.

Chai Yuan could ignore the letter from Prince Yong and the ministers, but he could not disobey the Empress Dowager's words.Under the intimidation of Queen Mother Guo, Chai Yuan had no choice but to sign the marriage letter of the little princess and his relatives.

However, he also had an agreement with Queen Mother Guo that he could agree to the marriage between the little princess and Prince Beiyuan, but he would not marry Chai Yuchuan for the time being because he was still young, and remarried in two years.

Chai Yuan thought in his heart, as long as he becomes the real emperor, there is still room for repaying all these.

"Kah, okay, this one is over. I'll take pictures here today, everyone go back and rest."

As soon as Director Zhang Cheng said that it was time to rest, everyone immediately cheered in unison.

Shen Yuelou also felt a little tired.

A total of four scenes were filmed today, except for the one about chasing the little princess, the scenes with Eunuch Lan, the scenes with Prince Yong, and the scenes with Queen Mother Guo. Each scene was more arduous and exhausting. .

Perhaps because yesterday's scene was too heavy, Director Zhang didn't arrange many scenes for him the next day. After a few cutscenes, he asked Shen Yuelou to rest.

After the work break, Shen Yuelou took the soundtrack "Where Does the Fragrance Come From" that she wrote yesterday for the young Chai Yuan chasing the little princess's sedan chair to find Ichiro Sakamoto and Zhu Guoping, and naturally got praise from the two of them.

After a few more days, Shen Yuelou finally filmed the second important scene, the new Grand Tutor's entry into the palace.

Different from the unrestricted free play when he first appeared on the stage, this time, Director Zhang gathered a group of actors together the night before to explain the script and check the lines.

According to the script, Zhang Cheng looked at Du Xinzhi and said, "Mr. Du, the Wen Xijiang you played is a real character in history, and has an inherent or generally recognized character image.

But you don’t need to be too rigid about these when you perform, you can play it properly and dig out more possibilities in the character.

Of course, the main focus is still on the character's new ideas and new culture. He is the opposite of the old culture represented by Chai Yuan. You want the audience to see the impact of the old and new culture in this scene. "
