After hearing Lu Chuan's last sentence, Ye Ci stood there dumbly without recovering from her shock for a long time, until the next scene was cleared by the staff...

Since she still had her part to play, she went to the corner with her makeup on. Team B's Liu Xia had already finished filming, so she came over to chat with her.

"How is it? What does it feel like to be in a play with the movie emperor? " Liu Xia excitedly asked.

Ye Ci shook her head. "There's no competition. I'm just a background board next to him."

"Do you know how many people wants to be his background?" This is a chance to be on the same frame as the Male God, a golden opportunity that is hard to come by! "

Ye Ci did not answer. Her eyes were drawn to the actors on the set who were caught by the lights. There were crowds of people. The camera moved in and out of motion.

And the people on the set who had no work to do, like Ye Ci, were all watching the play of "Kawasaki". Lu Chuan had grown up on a movie set and was extremely familiar with everything here. Once the director shouted "begin", he quickly entered the "hidden deep", "extremely deep" state of the Son of Heaven.

The scene was still played in the royal study, where two cabinet ministers discussed political matters with the emperor. On the surface, it looked like there was harmony between the emperor and his officials, but the relationship between the imperial court and the emperor was very complicated. Every sentence is a hidden knife, and to put it bluntly, this was a game of checks and balances between the two dynasties' elders and the young Son of Heaven.

Ye Ci watched the interaction between the actors, the tone of each line, the subtle expressions and movements of the key points, and watched as if she had really returned to a time she was familiar with.

Later on, she realized that this thing was called acting.

Liu Xia saw that Ye Ci had been staring unblinkingly at the filming process, and she suddenly smiled. The two of them hid in the distance, whispering to each other without disturbing the filming.

"Do you think that the senior actors are really awesome?"

Ye Ci's gaze shifted to Liu Xia. She did not speak, but the desire for knowledge in her eyes could not be deceived.

Liu Xia turned his head and looked at the three people on the set, saying, "Teacher Li Pingqi and Teacher Jiang Duo, both of them are seniors whose acting skills are unbeatable." But when it comes to playing with them, Lu Chuan doesn't feel like his aura is being overpowered at all. "

Pausing for a moment, she continued as if she had thought of something, "Now that many of the celebrities are based purely on their looks, popularity and marketing skills. The teachers all sigh at the fact that the actors these days are more like marionettes than actors, but no one has ever said such things about Lu Chuan."


"There's a legend in the circle that Chuan Deity never forgot his lines when he was acting. He normally looks like a slob, but once the camera is switched on, he can instantly enter a state."

As Liu Xia said this, her face revealed a wistful look, and her eyes revealed unconcealable envy. Ye Ci did not know much about Lu Chuan, but when she heard these words, she could not help but look in Lu Chuan's direction. After a long while, she slowly spoke — —

"So, you're his fan?"

Liu Xia shook his head. "No, I'm his mother."

"…" said Ye Ci. "

"I am the mother of the god!"

Ye Ci's last scene today was when the emperor is having 'insomnia'. He had already gone to bed, but his interest was piqued. He decided to take a stroll in the imperial garden, and Ye Ci was waiting for the emperor to dress and clean himself.

Lu Chuan was lying on a makeshift dragon bed, while Ye Ci was standing guard outside the door. He heard the man say in a husky, low voice, as if he had just woken up. "Someone," he said.

Ye Ci lowered her head and quickly entered the 'room' without any hesitation. Although her feet did not stop moving, she did not make any noise or sense of urgency. She stood one meter away from the bed and knelt down softly.

Lu Chuan said, "Who's on duty tonight?"

Ye Ci did not get up when she heard this. She said in a low voice, "Reporting to the Emperor, I am your servant." … …. This is the first line of Ye Ci's act.

The man on the other side of the bed paused for a few seconds, then said, "Serve this Emperor out of bed."

Yinxiu, the maid played by Ye Ci, whispered, "Yes."

When the court ladies and eunuchs came in, Ye Ci naturally followed the procedure, rinsing the emperor's mouth, wiping his face, and changing his clothes. The process was smooth, without any pauses, and during the whole time her eyes remained level and downcast, so that from Lu Chuan's point of view, all he could see was her lowered bun and the back of her neck.

Xie Penghui had originally thought that he would have to cut "twice" no matter what, but he did not expect that Ye Ci would actually be able to complete this rather difficult "waiting on" process for modern people in one go.

What does this mean? Through the monitor, he could see that Ye Ci is like a well-trained palace maid, with no trace of unfamiliarity or hesitation.

Although Lu Chuan was also surprised by Ye Ci's performance, he was not as surprised as Xie Penghui was. This was because in the first scene, he had already discovered that the entire scene of this palace maid was filmed.

What did that mean? As long as the camera isn't focus on them, most actors would not be able to resist moving their legs and shaking their hands. At the very least, they would have to relax their tensed backs.

However, Ye Ci did not do so. She was like a real palace maid, and did not show any signs of disrespect in front of her master. Her actions also unknowingly infected Lu Chuan, who was writing "King's Pesticide" on the side …
