After being forced to travel through time by accident, I became famous in the entertainment industry

The opera actor on the stage was still singing, and he was now singing the part where the king was captured.

The country that was destroyed was Zhao, and the country that destroyed Zhao was Li.

The audience on the first floor clapped and cheered, and the music became more urgent.

Shen Yu thought for a moment and said, "I guess there are two possible outcomes."

"Oh? Tell me about it." Xu Zhao was curious about what he could say.

It is precisely because this drama is a newly-staged one, its story is novel, and its ending is even more unpredictable, that so many people are willing to patiently watch it.

"The best outcome would be that after the King of Zhao restores his country, he would remember the contributions of these former subordinates. Their merits as his followers would be enough to promote them to higher positions."

Xu Zhao was suddenly struck by something. "A benevolent monarch would certainly reward those who helped him regain his throne. The counselor who offered such a plan should surely be made a king or a prime minister."

It's a happy ending for everyone.

Shen Yu agreed, "Yes, all of this is based on the fact that the captured King of Zhao is a benevolent king who remembers the help his ministers have given him."

But kings have always been ruthless.

"Look at how miserably the King of Zhao is being enslaved." Shen Yu looked straight ahead, watching the king on the stage being enslaved to become the groom of the King of Li, and even forced to become a stepping stone. It was a great shame and humiliation.

Xu Zhao looked towards the stage and agreed, "Yes, it must be uncomfortable to fall from the sky into a quagmire. This is humiliating him and trying to break his spine."

"Look at his old subordinates. Most of them are doing rough and tiring work. If they want to restore the country, they will definitely need military generals. Those few are all dressed like warriors." Shen Yu pointed at the actors who were working in the corner of the stage.

Actors on stage use different facial makeup and clothes to distinguish the roles they play.

"So what is the second guess?" Xu Zhao looked in the direction his finger was pointing. He already had an idea in his mind, but he didn't know if it was the same as Shen Yu's.

Shen Yu whispered, "He's favored in the morning, but sentenced to death in the evening. The cunning rabbit dies, and the running dog is cooked!"

Xu Zhao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought the same thing as her.

"Despite such humiliation, his mind remained strong and he didn't even think of committing suicide. This king must have been quite ruthless."

Shen Yu continued Xu Zhao's words, "To demonstrate his benevolence, the king will certainly reward these former subordinates, but they have all witnessed the King of Zhao's shameful behavior. I'm afraid the King of Zhao won't let them continue to live."

If a king wants to kill someone with justification or quietly, there are many ways to do it.

While the two were talking, a new character appeared on the stage. It was the beauty that the waiter had just mentioned. Her beauty, so stunning that it could captivate fish and geese alike, had successfully bewitched the King of Li.

The story has entered its second half, and the ending is about to be revealed.

The surrounding environment is lively. Every time we arrive at an exciting place, the people below will applaud, which boosts the atmosphere of the whole place.

The noise outside made the private room seem much quieter.

"If, I mean if, one day, you also face a king acting like this, what would you do?"

She was originally a person outside of history, and she came here by chance and met Shen Yu. After spending such a long time together, she inevitably fell in love with this flesh-and-blood Shen Yu, who was not just a few scribbled words in history books.

But this situation reminded Xu Zhao of Shen Yu's ending.

Shen Yu did not answer immediately, but turned his head to look at Xu Zhao beside him and met her moist eyes.

Xu Zhao also stared at Shen Yu.

The two were very close, and Xu Zhao could clearly see himself in Shen Yu's eyes, and also saw the indescribable emotions in his eyes.

"Chaoxi, how is it?" Shen Yu answered the question irrelevantly.

"..."

Xu Zhao: "What?"

She turned her head away and no longer looked directly at Shen Yu.

"The nickname you asked me to give you on the road just now," this was the word that suddenly popped up in Xu Zhao's mind after he asked Shen Yu a question.

"Chaoxi..." She repeated it a few times, and it sounded quite nice. "What is the character for xi?"

Xu Zhao originally thought it was the "xi" (set in Chinese) meaning of sunset, and the meaning of the two words together seemed very ordinary.

"The sun rises in the east, and the morning dawn shines. 'Xi' means sunshine. The morning dawn is full of hope, vitality and energy. I think it fits you very well."

After some explanation, Xu Zhao knew which character it was and the meaning of the name. "It's a nice name. I like it very much. You can call me by this name from now on."

Xu Zhao asking Shen Yu to help him choose a name naturally had a deeper meaning.

She explained to Shen Yu: "In this era, I am just Chao Xi. I used to be at the border, far away from the court, and no one cared about me. But now I am in the imperial city, and everyone is in the eyes of His Majesty. I cannot leave a mark in history."

"I see."

The drama behind the scenes soon turned to the rebellion of King Zhao and his old subordinates. The King of Li lost the support of the people under the instigation of the beauty, and countless good generals died in the conspiracy.

Soon, the King of Zhao and his former subordinates joined forces to behead the King of Li, and the State of Zhao was successfully restored.

The beauty beside the monarch of Li State fled from the palace immediately after receiving the news of the country's fall. No one knew where she was, so she could be considered to have retired with honor.

In accordance with the original agreement, King Zhao promoted and bestowed titles on his former subordinates who had helped him restore his country.

Many of the audience thought that the final outcome was the restoration of the King of Zhao and his appointment as king and prime minister, so they quietly slipped away because they did not want to pay for tea. Some thought that the final outcome was just the same as usual and without any novelty, so they threw down a few copper coins and left.

Almost one-third of the people in the lobby on the first floor had left, and there was more space between people.

When everyone thought the problem was solved, the beating of the drums behind the stage became more urgent, causing the spectators who were about to leave to pause and prick up their ears.

It turned out that among the old subordinates who were rewarded, there was a counselor who was different from the others. He was the counselor who presented the beauty. After King Zhao restored his country and was rewarded, he disappeared with the gold, silver and jewelry, leaving only a short letter to his colleagues.

The actor then sang, "When the birds are gone, the bows are put away; when the rabbit dies, the hound is cooked. The King of Zhao is a man with a long neck and a bird's beak. He can share hardship but not happiness. Leave now."

"I didn't expect that this theater dares to write and sing. If you are not careful, you will lose your head." Xu Zhao sighed. If someone is narrow-minded, he will probably no longer exist tomorrow if he criticizes the king so bluntly.

"If they were really beheaded tomorrow, I'm afraid our Majesty would lose the support of the people. He would certainly not do something that would hurt the enemy by a thousand and hurt himself by eight hundred."

Shen Yu saw things very clearly. His elder brother was almost deprived of the crown prince position by his father in his early years. He had been working hard to handle the affairs of state in order to prove that he was the wise choice for the monarch.

Therefore, his royal brother would never play the trick of killing the dog after the rabbit is dead at this time.

But in the future, everything is hard to say.
