After staying in the Mu Family for two days, Gu Xiaoqi's harvest was extremely plentiful.

Not only did he receive Mu Shilian's acknowledgement, he even ate until his stomach was full.

Pinching her face which had clearly gained weight by two rounds, Gu Xiaoqi lamented: "Sigh, all of these women in the entertainment circle are bone-eating, wouldn't she turn fat like a penguin if she's shown like this?"

Although she said that, Gu Xiaoqi still followed Ji Ruyu to the audition.

The play they were going to try was called "The Dreamlike Order" and it was an official historical play adapted from the novel. It told the story of how a small palace maid made a comeback in the palace and eventually ascended to the top.

Gu Xiaoqi was even a super fan of this book.

The female lead was the top celebrity in the country, Zhao Yalan. The ones she was compatible with were the popular Lil 'Hua in the industry, so this movie was destined to go viral.

The reason the two of them were able to get the audition was entirely because Ji Ruyu's father was the executive director. But Ji Ruyu had also said that she would bring her to see the world, and she might not even be able to choose one.

The audition venue was the movie city with the largest Rong City. Ji Ruyu walked in familiarly, and continuously greeted people along the way.

They turned and turned into an open yard. There were two cabins opposite, full of people outside, and Xiao Qi could see a lot of familiar faces on TV.

Gu Xiaoqi muttered to Ji Ruyu in a low voice, "Ruyu, isn't that just a small palace maid? Why are there so many people?"

"Stupid!" Ji Ruyu tapped Xiao Qi on the head, "This is no ordinary palace maid, she grew up with the female owner, the scenes played out through the entire drama, and she even died for the female owner, this kind of happy role, it was good for acting, it was definitely absorbing the powder."

With her two lifetimes worth of experience, Gu Xiaoqi didn't have any experience crawling around in the entertainment circle. She obediently listened to Ji Ruyu giving her general knowledge.

Very quickly, it was Gu Xiaoqi's turn. She took her number plate and walked in, with five girls following her.

However, when they entered, they found that there was a quarrel going on inside.

A man with a smooth head and a bulky body was holding his hat in anger.

"Who are you all looking for? I want the Liang Shuang who looks gentle, but is also devoid of emotions and ruthlessness, not a shallow woman who only knows how to talk!"

The person beside him tried his best to explain, "Director Ji, this request of yours is really too difficult. A supporting role is not pleasing to the eye, and there is even a bit of acting who is unwilling to accept this role.

"Not bad?" Ji An's head was about to spew fire, he shouted with a hoarse voice: "Let me do it! "Then I'll beat you up right now and expel you. Can you make do with it and forgive me!"

The assistant who had been scolded had a wronged look on his face, but he was well aware of Director Ji's temper. He also knew that he had said the wrong thing. "Director Ji, I didn't mean it that way. I will look for him again."

"No need!" Ji An's brows fell into a deep pit, his expression was ugly as he said: "Since so many people have already been interviewed, inform the screenwriter, delete this role!"

As an original fan, Gu Xiaoqi naturally knew about Liang Shuang's role. It could be said that she liked Liang Shuang the most. Compared to the experience of the female lead, Liang Shuang was nothing. After the new emperor ascended the throne, he was sent to the palace, where she made an exception and became the official second rank imperial concubine, the Frost Princess. During her first year in the palace, she gave birth to the Sixth Prince and was promoted to a first rank imperial concubine. But she shouldn't have, she shouldn't have fallen in love with the emperor, and she hated him for it. With so many beauties in the harem, it was normal for the emperor to dislike the old and the new. Liang Shuang was unable to accept the Emperor's "kindness". She used all sorts of methods to deal with the people from the harem, but was later forsaken by the Emperor for the female lead's tragic scheme. Without her Royal Pet, Liang Shuang went insane. She continuously used her son to fight for his favor, even abandoning the loyal servants who had followed her for many years. Such a heartless and heartless woman had ultimately died to save the Emperor.

Gu Xiaoqi remembered that there was this phrase written in the book, "I, Liang Shuang, have let down the people of this world, but I have never let down the emperor. This was probably what the man meant by being infatuated and heartless.

Hearing that her favorite role was to be cancelled, Gu Xiaoqi's heart stirred. She bit her lips, mustered up her courage and walked out, "Excuse me, can you let me try out Liang Shuang's role?"

Ji An was annoyed, he glanced at Gu Xiaoqi and asked: "Who are you?"

Xiao Qi replied in a neither humble nor haughty manner: "My name is Gu Xiaoqi, I am an actor who came to audition. I am a loyal fan of the Dreamlike Order, and when I heard you say that you wanted to delete the role of Liang Shuang, I wanted to give it a try! "

"Gu Xiaoqi?" Recently, this name had been resounding in Ji An's ears.

He finally raised his eyes and looked at the other side — it was a woman with delicate features and graceful figure. She was indeed a beautiful woman, but she lacked the charm of having a sharp edge.

"You're trying on a palace maid, Susie?"

"Yes sir!"

"I can give you the role right now, but do you still want to try Liang Shuang?"

"Yes sir!"

"If you fail, you will get nothing!"

"I don't regret it!"

After thinking for a while, Ji An nodded to everyone, "Alright, I'll let you try." Saying that, he took out a piece of paper and handed it over to Gu Xiaoqi, "You only have ten minutes, in ten minutes I want to see your performance."

"Alright." Xiao Qi nodded seriously.

Gu Xiaoqi was given a new chance to audition, which made the girls that came with her very jealous.

The leftmost girl pointed angrily at Gu Xiaoqi, "Director, why did she suddenly change from a palace maid to a female partner with just a few words? This is not fair!"

"Fair?" Ji An laughed and put his hands behind his back, "Alright, alright, alright, I'll give you fairness. You can try out Liang Shuang's role, but if she fails, you can't try it out anymore, do you dare? "

The girl did not speak anymore. In the end, she was still afraid. She knew her limits were too low, she wasn't even one bit confident, and yet she mentioned Liang Shuang.

If he failed, wouldn't he become a laughingstock?

"I dare!" At this time, Xia Ran, who was standing beside Gu Xiaoqi, stepped forward, "Director, please give me a chance too!"

"Alright!" Ji An openly agreed.

The two went off to look at the lines while the others continued their audition.

What Gu Xiaoqi had received was the scene of Liang Shuang's death. She lay in the emperor's embrace, reminiscing about the past.

The lines were very long, but luckily Gu Xiaoqi had read the original books many times before.

Ten minutes quickly passed.

When Gu Xiaoqi raised her head, she realized that there were a lot of people in the room, and even Ji Ruyu had squeezed herself into a corner.

"Which one of you will go first." Ji An asked.

"Me!" Xia Ran said confidently.

The preparation time was only ten minutes, and the first one to arrive seemed to be at a disadvantage. However, Gu Xiaoqi knew in her heart that this battle would not be difficult. After the first person finished performing, it would be difficult for the people in the back to compete with the people in the front.

Xia Ran was indeed powerful as she fell to the ground, tears flowing down her face within a second. Her face was filled with grief and despair as she screamed out a long line of words to the air.

As expected, after Xia Ran finished his performance, Ji An's face revealed a trace of a smile.

"Worthy of being the daughter of the movie's empress. She's so young, yet her acting skills are so good."

"That's right, that Xiao Qi doesn't seem to need to continue acting. I don't want to embarrass myself!"

"In my opinion, she was still too young. She had appeared out of nowhere and ended up getting married to someone else."

Covering off the sounds of discussion around him, Gu Xiaoqi took a deep breath and stood at the center of the stage.

She and Xia Ran fell to the ground, but Xiao Qi's face was very clean. She didn't shed a single tear.

"Your Majesty, it has been an entire 12 years since chenqie entered the palace to become a concubine. After the concubine's death, the Emperor no longer has to worry about the concubine, and he indulged the Liang family in every way possible, begging you to spare their lives. In addition, Zhennan Wang had repeatedly communicated with the Liang Family. Your Majesty, please be careful, and … "Under my bed, there is a secret box. Inside is the recipe for some snacks, which are the emperor's favorite foods."

"Your Majesty, do you still remember that year when you passed by Xiangyang on your southern patrol? I was standing under a peach tree, and you once told me that 'peach blossoms in the sky and shines brilliantly'. Her cheeks are like snow and her eyes like flowers. "

Gu Xiaoqi who was performing the technique had no thorns on her body, making him look peaceful and beautiful. She just stared into the distance, her tone filled with longing and longing.

It was like her love for the Emperor was pure and paranoid.

Two people, two ways.

Xia Ran's Liang Shuang's heart was filled with hatred towards the emperor, her wife and her family before she died.

As for Gu Xiaoqi's Liang Shuang, she was more like that little girl who had just entered the palace twelve years ago, innocent and pure.

After saying her last line, there were no tears on Gu Xiaoqi's face at all. With a satisfied smile, she closed her eyes.

Perhaps, this was the best ending for Liang Shuang.

"Director, I'm done." Gu Xiaoqi calmly stood up from the ground.

When they saw Xia Ran's performance, they thought that Gu Xiaoqi was definitely going to lose. They never thought that she would actually choose a different path and go in a completely different direction.

He had to admit that Gu Xiaoqi's Liang Shuang was more touching and profound.

"This is Liang Shuang!" A girl beside Ji An stood up excitedly as he clenched his fists with hot tears in his eyes.

"Teacher Zhu, we still need to discuss it." the assistant advised.

"There's no need to discuss it, my Liang Shuang is just a woman who has lost all the people in the world, a woman who loves only one person!" Zhu Zi Qing said resolutely.

As the original author and investor, Zhu Ziqing has great power in the selection of actors.

Seeing that Zhu Zi Qing was about to rush over, Ji An frowned and stood up: All of you go back and wait for the news, the rest of you go back to your seats!

After exiting the examination room, Gu Xiaoqi heaved a sigh of relief. She patted her chest with lingering fear.

Ji Ruyu happily jumped to her side, "Xiao Qi, you've played too much, this role is definitely yours!"

Gu Xiaoqi was not that optimistic. To be honest, Xia Ran's acting was also very good.

Furthermore, if she hadn't misheard, Xia Ran's mother was a film queen. Wasn't there only one with the surname 'Xia' in the entertainment industry?
