waiting for your starlight

Chapter 116

"It's nothing serious, it's just... Even if Han Meng's fans are dissatisfied, a large group of people ran to Tianya to build a building. Those stupid people posted pictures of you from an unattractive angle, complained about your ugly appearance, and said they only recognized Han Meng My Wu Meiniang won't watch tonight's premiere. You said she has been dead for so long and still has so many fans, is it true?"

Yixi: "Are there many people who agree?"

Xia Xintong looked at her, "Well, there are quite a lot... You know, Han Meng's reputation is much bigger than yours, and the brainwashing of fans is terrible! And although your Liu Ji played very well, that role is still too charming Well, everyone said that even if you are not playing the Little White Rabbit version of Emperor Wu, you are also playing the version of Demon Concubine who is similar to Lu Yan, so I don’t like it anyway.”

In other words, the Internet is waiting to see jokes.

Xia Xintong: "Did I make you more nervous?"

Yixi shook her head, "No, I'm more relaxed now. Anyway, everyone has sentenced me to death, so I'll just wait for my life to come back from the corner and see them slap me in the face!"

Xia Xintong: "This is the morale!"

After the news broadcast ended, a few more minutes of commercials were played, and the theme song of "The Empress" finally sounded.At this time, many people across the country sat in front of the TV, or switched to Capital Satellite TV intentionally or unintentionally, and then stopped.Ordinary people watched the excitement, and those who cared a little about the entertainment industry began to wonder whether Zhou Xingfang's masterpiece of transformation after repeated failures would reverse the defeat, or push her career into a more terrifying abyss?

As a first-class director of historical dramas, Zhou Xingfang's works will not go too far even if they are jokes. The costumes and makeup of "The Empress" refer to historical documents, and the plot strictly follows historical records at the beginning, and there is no tampering

In the ninth year of Zhenguan, the founding hero of the Tang Dynasty, Ying Guogong, warrior Xun died of illness. After he left, his cousin and the son born to his original wife were rude to the warrior Xun's stepwife, Yang. Yang and her three The situation at home is increasingly difficult for the daughter.

After a series of conflicts, a turning point occurred in the 11th year of Zhenguan, when His Majesty heard that the second daughter of the samurai Xun was beautiful in appearance and behavior, and ordered her to be called into the palace.

That is the 14-year-old Wu Meiniang.

At that time, she still didn't call her by that name. Women in the Tang Dynasty were used to being called by their surname plus their family rank. The future Empress is just a second mother of the Wu family who has a humble status and has to endure the bullying of her half-brother.

Although she lost her father, Wu Erniang was also raised by her mother in the palm of her hand.Hearing that she was going to the palace, Yang was worried about her daughter's fate, so she secretly cried in her room, but was bumped into her face.

The door of the room was ajar, and the girl was wearing a light blue chest-length skirt, her crescent eyebrows were lightly swept away, her skin was snow-white, and she was standing by the door with a backlight.That face was still immature, but her black eyes showed determination. She pursed her lips and walked in front of Yang's step by step.

Wu Erniang knelt down in front of Yang and asked, "Why are you crying, Aunt?"

The tears on Yang's face were still wet, and she looked at her sadly, "Second Niang, it's Grandma who is incompetent. If your grandpa is still here, you will definitely stop this matter..."

"Mother doesn't want my son to go to the palace?"

Yang smiled bitterly, "You are still young, so you don't know the dangers of the palace. A Niang is afraid to even think about such a place..."

Of course Wu Erniang understood what her mother meant.She is not a little girl who knows nothing, and usually reads secretly behind her brother's back. She knows about those power struggles, and even more knows that countless women's youthful bones have been buried in the harem of the past dynasties.

But so what?

The situation would not be better if she continued to stay in this family, her elder brother persecuted her, her uncle bullied her, her mother was clearly the wife of the wife, but the place she lived in was dilapidated and empty, and her temples had grown hair early.

She didn't dare to imagine, if it wasn't for His Majesty's call, who would her brother marry her in exchange for what kind of benefits.

"How could Aunt know that going to the palace is not a blessing..."

Yang was stunned, "What?"

The girl in the cardamom age was prematurely infected with solemnity, she held Yang's hand and knelt for a long time before slowly standing up.Yang's eyes followed her, and she straightened her back, raised her chin, and looked down at Yang.There was disdain and even arrogance in her expression, as if the one in front of her was not the mother who gave birth to her and raised her, but the younger siblings who needed to be taught by her.

Wu Erniang's eyes were firm, and she slowly repeated what she said just now, "My son is going here to serve the Holy Son of Heaven, how can I know that this is a blessing? Why are you crying and acting like a child!"

The girl's voice was stern, and Yang stayed there completely.

In relevant records, this sentence was said by Wu Zetian when she said goodbye to her mother, and almost all historians believe that this is the first time that her distinctive character is reflected in historical materials.

Not afraid of the possible danger ahead, but looking forward to the opportunity hidden under the danger, she is eager to get rid of the current difficult situation, so she is not afraid to pay any price for it.This kind of momentum branded in her bones has also become the root of her legendary life.

On the screen, Yixi stood dignified, as beautiful as a proud peacock.She stopped looking at Yang Shi who was in a complicated mood, and turned to leave after saluting.The moment the door was opened, the girl looked longingly in the direction of the palace, with a smile on her lips.It was at this moment that people saw her innocence again.At this time, Wu Erniang was still naive, she believed that she could cope with future crises, and even thought that she could be favored by His Majesty, and she would no longer have to look at anyone's face to live.

Young and mature, calm and impulsive.so contradictory.so charming.

Xia Xintong didn't realize that Yixi's performance was so contagious. From the very beginning, she caught everyone's attention like a magnet.Even though the story of Emperor Wu has long been photographed, the audience can't help but look forward to it, wondering if this ambitious girl can really rewrite her own destiny, and what is unknown in the nine palaces? Challenges await her...

At the end of the first episode, the ending song was melodious and sweet, Xia Xintong slowly turned her head, beside Yixi was looking at her expectantly, as if she was waiting for feedback.

Xia Xintong swallowed, grabbed Yixi's hand, and said seriously: "Xixi, I think you will be popular! You will definitely be popular!"
