Chapter 438: The cause is unknown
The script naturally had to be rewritten, but Mai Xiaoji was really not at ease with Di Renjie.
Even if the format is right, the content lacks interest, and if the TV series is based on thick pathos, it will not be able to attract contemporary young people.
Mai Xiaoji emphasized Li Zhi's wise decision, not to bury a conscientious and benevolent emperor, and so on.
At the same time, Mai Xiaoji also discussed with everyone in the Fengyue Boundless Group that the heroine of the next part is Wu Zetian. The voices for and against are half apart, which means that there is no position.
Proponents believe that the only empress in history, is the glory of women, and should be filmed. Moreover, such themes usually have good results, and they are also feasible from the perspective of cost.
Opponents, the subject matter is rotten, and it is a high-cost production, so it doesn't make much money. In addition, Wu Zetian is too ruthless, he even wants to kill his own daughter for the sake of his superiority, he is not a good class, what is there to admire?
Everyone has different opinions, the discussion is also intense, and even the group leader is in a dilemma, so it makes sense to listen to the opinions of the supporters. Listen to the opposition again, it seems that Wu Zetian is quite hateful, and the TV series wants to justify it, can it be that in order to achieve the goal, you can use any means to mutilate your flesh and bones?
Except for Mai Xiaoji, the group members are all women, and gradually the opposition voice has the upper hand, and they are also mothers, and they can't accept the patriarchal behavior that their daughters can strangle to death.
That is, if such an act had taken place in modern times, it would have been shot long ago.
For this reason, Mai Xiaoji specially asked Di Renjie, "Elder Guo, ask a question." ”
"Please. ”
"Did the Empress really kill her own daughter?"
"I didn't see it with my own eyes, so it's a rumor. ”
Di Renjie replied, of course Mai Xiaoji was not satisfied, it was too vague, and the more this was the case, the more suspicious it became. "Ancient women had no status, and so did princesses. ”
That's not true. The princess of the royal family, born to the favorite concubine, as far as I know, on the day when Princess Anding was alive, she enjoyed the same treatment as the princess, and there were guards around her all the time, and the princess was really a violent death, and the cause was unknown. Di Renjie explained.
"That wasn't killed by the queen either?"
"Queen Wang's status in the middle palace was stable at that time, so why bother with the princess. ”
"Elder Guo, you won't be partial to the empress, right?" Mai Xiaoji couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, with the mind of the empress, the queen is determined to win, so why take the risk!"
Oh, Wu Zetian has the skill, it is very simple to deal with any queen and queen Xiao Shufei, in case the murder of the princess is revealed, she will not be able to escape the blame, but it is not good.
When the princess was born, everything was fine, but when she died suddenly, and it was time to compete for favor, it was inevitable that people would speculate. The emperor was furious and demanded a thorough investigation into the matter, but strangely, one of the palace maids serving the princess committed suicide, and the empress did not suspect it, but protected her and gave her a generous burial with two pieces of silver.
Therefore, there was also a popular saying at that time, the palace maid was not used to seeing the empress who was still Zhaoyi at that time being bullied, so she made this decision and apologized for the princess's funeral afterwards.
"What the elder means is the idea of the subordinates, and it has nothing to do with anyone?" asked Mai Xiaoji.
"Royal secrets, outsiders don't know. In the end, the matter was settled, and then the queen's concubines fell out of favor one after another, and there were villains who made trouble and created rumors. But Gaozong is not a faint king, how can he let women run rampant. I have followed the empress for many years, and her benevolent and magnanimous side is often the case for the sake of the overall situation, and she is by no means narrow-minded and vicious. ”
Overall, this is a historical coincidence. In ancient times, the level of medical care was low, the neonatal mortality rate was extremely high, and the princess was born in winter, and there were also body temperature imbalances caused by excessive warmth.
Di Renjie also reminded the empress not to ask about this matter, the loss of her beloved daughter is a huge thorn in her heart, and every time she mentions it, it hurts incomparably.
"Xiao Ji, what are you busy with!" shouted Jiang Wenqian, who was taking a bath in the bathroom.
"Oh, nothing. Mai Xiaoji hurriedly put the Golden Circle mobile phone away.
"Every day when I go home, I only know how to play with my mobile phone, and I am not afraid of being blind!"
Mai Xiaoji rubbed his eyes, don't say, this phone really doesn't hurt his eyes. Moreover, he is not playing with his mobile phone, but using his mobile phone to communicate with the ancients through this treasure.
didn't pay attention to Jiang Wenqian, but she didn't stop, "Ah, the hot water pipe is broken, help me bring some hot water." ”
Defect!
Mai Xiaoji muttered quietly, took off his pajamas, and went in.
"Hey, where's the hot water?"
"Believe it or not, I fixed it as soon as I touched the faucet?"
"Ah, that's amazing!"
"The acting is good. ”
Poof, ahh
They went back to their rooms to rest, and the group was still discussing, and Mai Xiaoji made a comprehensive analysis of Princess Anding's premature death, ruling out the possibility that Wu Zetian killed his daughter with his own hands.
This incident has always been the biggest stain on Wu Zetian's body, and if it is taken away, the plot will not be justified. Even the actions of loyal servants are too ignorant and cruel.
The group was filled with the brilliance of maternal love, and everyone's argument was still fierce, and the group leader jumped out: "Look, a historical node, there is such a big attraction, I think this TV series is still interesting." ”
"I'd better write the script first, the old rule, after the sisters pass it, we'll decide on the rest. Mai Xiaoji said it politely, but he actually insisted on filming.
After calmly thinking about it, everyone was relieved that as long as the script was suitable, it could be filmed. However, this time it was not the theater line, but the Internet and TV stations.
These two have a larger audience, but they also have greater risks, and the competition is as fierce as theatricals.
A few days later, Di Renjie sent the second draft, Mai Xiaoji was quite satisfied with it, and Wu Zetian's love for his children was portrayed.
"Has the Empress seen it?" asked McEigh.
"It's nature. Di Renjie replied.
wrote twice, but Wu Zetian didn't do it himself, which shows that his arrogance is not ordinary. But I didn't write my memoirs, and the one with the pen was an old man, and he still looked rigid and lacked softness all day long.
Not to mention the humor, there is basically none, it is decent from beginning to end, and it can't be bad.
"Empress, is there anything else you need to add?" Mai Xiaoji asked tentatively, actually hoping that Wu Zetian could make changes.
"Nine out of ten, almost. ”
Wu Zetian replied lightly, and he also sealed his mouth, and he would not add any more content.
People who have been emperors have arrogance, and it is even more difficult for female emperors to serve, Mai Xiaoji thinks that he can't convince her, but he politely rewarded Di Renjie with three hundred grams of gold, how he distributes it, it doesn't matter.
As usual, the work of revising the script still has to be sent to Li Qingzhao.
In half a day, the script came over, and when Mai Xiaoji saw it, there was basically no change, just the correction of individual words.
"It's not for you to pick a typo, it's too coping, right?" Mai Xiaoji was unhappy.
"Brother only said that he wanted me to see, but didn't say anything else. A wicked laugh followed.
There is no way, you get what you pay for, and I refuse to pay a little more, and a gold red envelope worth 300,000 yuan is sent over, "Change it to the script format, change it well, change it seriously." ”
"There are a lot of problems, and it will take time!"
Li Qingzhao spoke very angrily, and when he didn't give money, he didn't point out any problems!
