Chapter 266: Saving the Paranoid and Vengeful Business Leader 10
Wen Yang's current performance has deviated from the script.
But Director Zhang didn't call for a stop, so the staff on the scene all kept silent tacitly.
The most confused person at the moment was Lu Lianchuan, who was acting opposite Wen Yang.
Logically, he should be holding the sword in his hand, pointing at the princess played by Wen Yang.
But now, the sword was snatched away by Wen Yang, and the director didn't call for a stop, which meant that he had to take over Wen Yang's impromptu performance...
Lu Lianchuan quickly adjusted his expression, his cold eyes tinged with disbelief. He raised his finger and pointed at Wen Yang, saying coldly, "Who allowed you to get up? Return the sword to me!"
Wen Yang lowered his hand to hold the sword, raised his eyes and met Lu Lianchuan's gaze directly. His eyes were no longer as sad as before, but rather a little self-deprecating. Even the corners of his lips curled up in a mocking arc. He asked in return: "If I return the sword to the prince, will the prince point it at me?"
When these words came out, Lu Lianchuan was stunned for a moment. Just when everyone thought that the play was about to end, he heard Wen Yang's clear voice: "I am the legitimate daughter of the general who assists the country. I have been able to be both civil and martial since I was young. Even the Empress Dowager praised me as a role model for women..."
When saying this, Wen Yang raised his chin slightly, looking stubborn and proud.
Wen Yang then raised the long sword in his hand and pointed it steadily at Lu Lianchuan and Jiang Mengran standing in front of her. His voice suddenly became shrill, "Your Highness, do you still remember the promise you made to me after my father and brother shed their blood on the battlefield?"
"I..." Lu Lianchuan murmured and fell silent.
He was shocked. He didn't expect that he would be so suppressed by Wen Yang's acting skills!
Seeing Lu Lianchuan remained silent, Wen Yang chuckled while holding his sword. "It seems that Your Highness doesn't remember. Then I will help Your Highness recall... Your Highness said at that time that he would be with me for the rest of my life. As long as you are here, I will never let anyone bully me."
"I believed it then..." After saying this, a drop of hot crystal fell from Wen Yang's face with a sad smile on it, and quickly fell into the cold snow and disappeared.
Lu Lianchuan looked at Wen Yang in front of him, and suddenly his heart was filled with an indescribable bitterness. It felt like his heart was being tugged at, as if he had really become that unfaithful prince! He subconsciously let go of the hand on Jiang Mengran's shoulder, took two steps towards Wen Yang, and said in a much softer tone than before, "Xinyue, put down your sword first..."
Jiang Mengran was completely stunned when she saw Lu Lianchuan actually let her go. Originally, she could have just hidden in Lu Lianchuan's arms and acted aggrieved and delicate, and the scene would have ended smoothly, but what on earth was going on?! She was clearly the heroine of the play! But why did she have the illusion that she was a mistress?!
Seeing Lu Lianchuan approaching him, Wen Yang suddenly took a step back.
In the face of Lu Lianchuan's shock, she smiled faintly and slowly placed the sword across her neck. Her eyes were moist and her voice was ethereal. "Your Highness, do you know that I have not been happy in the past five years of being married to you? As a princess, I have to take care of the household chores and entertain the rich and powerful. I am always entangled in trivial matters and have no time to rest. Now, Your Highness wants to humiliate me by calling me a concubine and insulting me as a jealous and vicious woman..."
"Although I respect and love His Majesty, this does not mean that I can allow His Majesty to trample on me at will. After all, people are made of flesh and blood..."
Wen Yang had been in the snow for a long time. When she knelt on the ground just now, the snow water had wet her sleeves, and her hair was also soaked by some of the melted snow. Coupled with her pale makeup, she looked extremely disheveled.
Although he looked so miserable, the love, hatred and unwillingness in his eyes were so bright that people couldn't take their eyes off him.
Everyone present was attracted by Wen Yang's performance, especially Director Zhang, whose clenched fists had never loosened from the beginning to now!
"No, it's not like that... Xinyue, listen to me..." Lu Lianchuan stretched out his hand, trying to explain something weakly.
But at that moment, Wen Yang's jealousy, hatred, and resentment disappeared, leaving only a relieved smile. She said softly, "Your Highness, there is no need to say more. Xinyue's only sin in this life is that she trusted the wrong person. I only hope that in the next life... we will never meet again."
After saying that, Wen Yang made a feint with the sword across his neck, followed by a neat spin and gracefully falling to the ground.
The movements are as beautiful as a dance.
The pink palace dress swayed gently in the wind and snow. At this moment, the snow fell silently, and in the snow-covered courtyard, only the pink figure lying on the ground remained, like a plum blossom fallen from a branch, no longer having any breath of life.
"No!!!" Lu Lianchuan let out a heartbreaking roar, then he stumbled into the snow and knelt down beside the pink figure. He carefully picked up Wen Yang, his eyes red as he trembled and murmured, "Xinyue, I don't want you to die..."
Although, in the original plot of this drama, the princess played by Wen Yang should have ended up dead, Wen Yang's suicide now only brought the plot back to the original plot.
But Lu Lianchuan felt a deep sense of regret and reluctance towards the role of the princess... Especially Wen Yang's final words, "I only hope that in the next life... I will never meet the prince again," made him feel a sudden and intense pain in his heart...
"Cut!!!" Director Zhang's voice suddenly rang out.
Many staff members only came to their senses at this time.
They had just watched Wen Yang's acting skills up close on the scene. Many people were moved by Wen Yang's acting skills and unconsciously immersed in a kind of sadness...
After hearing Director Liu shout "Cut", Wen Yang immediately jumped up from Lu Lianchuan's arms. There was no trace of the tragic love on his face during the performance just now.
She pushed herself up with her hands and stood up lightly from the snow without even giving Lu Lianchuan a glance.
Sister Yu quickly came forward with a cup of hot drink and a blanket. She wrapped the blanket around Wen Yang, then stuffed a cup of hot millet porridge into Wen Yang's hands and urged, "Hurry up, drink something to warm yourself up!"
Wen Yang took a sip from the cup and said thank you.
At this time, Director Zhang stood up from the small stool behind the camera and walked in front of Wen Yang. His face was no longer as cold and gloomy as it was at the beginning. Instead, there was a hint of appreciation at the corner of his mouth.
Wen Yang took the cup away from his mouth and smiled at Director Zhang, "I'm sorry, I changed the lines today without telling you in advance..."
Unexpectedly, upon hearing Wen Yang's words, Director Zhang clapped his hands and laughed, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. Great change, great change! With this change in dialogue, your character instantly came to life! I'm sure after this episode airs, everyone's opinion of the role you've played will be transformed!"
"Wen Yang, you are a good actor. I misunderstood you before. Congratulations on finishing the filming today!" Director Zhang extended his hand to Wen Yang.
