"Crack!"

"Good! Pass this one, move on to the next one."

Chu Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She originally came from a talent show and rose to become a top star thanks to her stunning looks and excellent singing and dancing skills.

However, the peak of an idol's popularity is too short, and she wants to take advantage of her prime to try her hand at cross-industry ventures, making it easier for her to transition to other fields later.

After a long period of careful selection, the studio finally helped her choose the role of the female lead in a top-rated S+ drama on Taobao.

Most importantly, the male lead of this drama is the legendary low-key and mysterious three-time Golden Horse Award winner, Chu Xuan.

Chu Xuan's low profile is not only due to his almost complete lack of participation in any activities other than promoting his works, but also because of his status as the heir of the Chu family.

The Chu family of the capital city is a household name, a prestigious family that has been passed down for centuries and now has a presence in various industries around the world.

Chu Xuan is the only son of Chu He, the current head of the Chu family, and is undoubtedly the next head of the Chu family.

No one knows why this academically gifted young master, who was admitted to university through direct admission, would deviate from the norm and enter the entertainment industry to make movies after graduating early.

Chu Yu went through rounds of auditions and finally won the role based on her talent.

Three months before filming began, the director asked the main actors to join the crew for a script reading session, including Chu Xuan.

When she first met the movie star, she only felt that he was aloof and indifferent, and rarely talked to people except for necessary work-related exchanges.

As they were the male and female leads of the drama, they were seated together during the reading session.

At first, Chu Xuan's agent was very wary of her, fearing that she would harass Chu Xuan under the guise of work, just like those female celebrities before her.

Chu Yu was speechless and a little angry. She was definitely a career-oriented idol!

Although Chu Xuan's face, resembling Nuwa's graduation project, was indeed on her mind.

However, she knew very well that male gods were meant to be admired from afar, not touched, so she had always been careful to keep a safe distance from Chu Xuan.

I just don't know why, even though she has always been self-disciplined and polite, this legendary movie star who is supposed to be unapproachable is becoming more and more strange?

She never contacted him outside of work hours, but he would often come over and chat with her for a few trivial things.

Legend has it that Chu Xuan, the movie star who never participates in group activities on set, actually treated the entire cast of actors to more than twenty meals in three months, and each meal was different from the last.

Not only that, but starting from some unknown day, Chu Xuan would order coffee for everyone every morning, and there would also be a delicate afternoon tea in the afternoon.

Strangely, every restaurant, whether it was coffee, afternoon tea, or a gathering, had the same flavors that Chu Yu liked.

This historical drama, titled "Hua Qing Yin," is adapted from the novel of the same name.

The story tells of Pei Cheng, the grandson of the former emperor, who goes by the alias Shen Hui and infiltrates the Great Wei Dynasty. After a series of struggles, he finally succeeds in overthrowing the Great Wei regime, ascends the throne, and completes his mission of restoring the country.

Chu Yu plays the female lead, Wei Qingshu, the only daughter of the old King of Wei, and the peerless Princess Shuhua of the Wei Kingdom.

In male-centric scripts, the female lead's role is actually quite small. Her main function is to provide timely assistance to Pei Cheng when he is still Shen Hui, and to add a touch of romance to this male-dominated epic.

Princess Shuhua fell in love with the dashing young general Shen Hui, but was heartbroken after being rejected repeatedly.

Just then, the old King Wei abdicated due to illness, and her elder brother Wei Qingzheng was appointed to the throne in a time of crisis. Wei Qingzheng was skilled in calligraphy, painting, music, and chess, but he was not good at governing the country.

After he ascended the throne, he was misled by treacherous officials, and soon the court of Wei was controlled by the treacherous faction.

Pei Cheng was brainwashed by his father from a young age, firmly believing that the downfall of the Yunzheng Dynasty was caused by the old King Wei. His father's only wish before his death was that Pei Cheng could complete the mission of restoring the country.

In the third year of Wei Zhao's reign, General Shen Hui raised an army and forced the emperor to abdicate.

Princess Shuhua, Wei Qingshu, holding the tiger tally and the imperial seal, was willing to surrender, only asking to save the lives of her father and brothers.

Pei Cheng looked at his beloved, who should have been sent to the palace to avoid danger. She was dressed in gorgeous palace clothes and was as beautiful and charming as when they first met.

At this moment, she knelt on both knees, holding the tiger tally and jade seal as a token of surrender, pleading with herself.

Pei Cheng clung to his last shred of hope, "A-Shu, get up first. I promise I won't harm your father and brothers in the slightest. You will all live well."

Wei Qingshu didn't get up, and with red eyes, she asked again, "Is this true?"

“Pei Chengke hereby swears an oath to the heavens.”

"Okay. I believe you." For the last time.

Pei Cheng kept his promise and, after obtaining the Tiger Tally and Jade Seal, did not lay a single stone on the ground, thus completing the dynastic change without bloodshed.

When the old King Wei fell seriously ill, Pei Cheng granted Wei Qingzheng special permission to take care of his father at a villa in the suburbs of the capital, and he was not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned.

Wei Qingshu was kept in the palace.

The day before the new emperor ascended the throne, the palace maids responsible for taking care of Wei Qingshu could not find her anywhere. Pei Cheng was so anxious that he sent people to search the palace room by room.

Finally, Wei Qingshu was found standing alone on the palace wall.

When Pei Cheng arrived, she was gazing sadly at the former princess's residence—the place where they first met.

He trembled uncontrollably, his voice pleading, "Ah Shu, please come down, okay? I'll give you anything you want, just come down, okay?"

Wei Qingshu was wearing the same dress she wore when they first met, the hem of which fluttered in the wind.

"Shen Hui".

"I'm here."

"Don't forget your promise, farewell."

Having said that, he didn't give Pei Cheng a chance to speak again and jumped off the city wall.

Overthrowing the Great Wei Dynasty and restoring Yunzheng was his destiny, while Princess Shuhua, who betrayed her father, brothers, and country, could only atone with her death; this was her destiny.

Fate is like a dead game of chess, with countless entanglements that leave one with no way to struggle.

The following day, Pei Cheng ascended the throne, changed the country's name to Shuhui, and posthumously honored Wei Qingshu as Empress, placing her in the imperial mausoleum.

Pei Cheng never married, and later made Pei Zheng, a member of the imperial clan, the crown prince.

Thirty-one years later, Pei Cheng died of illness and was buried in the imperial mausoleum alongside Empress Wei Qingshu.
