The Actress Queen's Rebirth: She's a Bigshot Loved by All Her Uncles!

Changing the Scenes

Because Lu Zhen was the heroine. She bore all the attention. Of course, her imperfections would be infinitely magnified.

Those bloggers could gain traffic and popularity as long as they posted topics about her. Why would they care that Lu Zhen was just a young lady who wasn’t even twenty years old? They wished that Lu Zhen had more dirt and scandals.

After Lu Zhen’s makeup was done, the crew’s preparations were almost complete. They were filming a very important scene today.

In the drama, the enemy army suddenly launched an attack and arrived at the border city. The female general, Qin Qing, played by Lu Zhen, led less than 20,000 troops to face the enemy. Although she immediately sent a distress letter to Luoyang City, which was 500 miles away, this distress letter was detained by the county magistrate.

It turned out that the county magistrate had already colluded with the enemy to commit treason. Seven days later, without any reinforcements, Qin Qing decided not to sit around and wait for death.

Before dawn, she took advantage of the enemy’s weak defense and led her subordinates to attack the enemy from the flank. After taking the head of an enemy general, she quickly retreated to the city gate. However, at this moment, the county magistrate ordered the city gate to be closed.

Qin Qing was furious and asked the county magistrate to open the city gate immediately.

Unexpectedly, the county magistrate said that Qin Qing was a spy sent by the enemy. He even took out a letter written by the enemy general to Qin Qing, saying that this letter was evidence.

That letter was naturally fake. Only then did Qin Qing understand that this county magistrate had probably colluded with the enemy.

The enemy troops had already arrived behind her. Qin Qing could only lead her subordinates to turn around and fight. In this battle, the 5,000 people she had brought out were almost completely wiped out. Only four severely injured trusted subordinates were left beside her. As for herself, she had also been shot twice, and her battle robe was stained red with blood.

Just as Qin Qing thought that she was going to die under the enemy’s blade, the male lead arrived with his subordinates and saved her.

The scene they were filming today was Qin Qing’s scene after she returned to the city and woke up.

Almost all the 5,000 people Qin Qing had brought out had died in battle. These people had followed her for two years and had a deep relationship with her. 5,000 lives had been lost because of a traitor. How could she tolerate this?!

Qin Qing went crazy and wanted to behead the county magistrate.

However, the male protagonist dissuaded the female protagonist, saying that the county magistrate was an official of the imperial court. Moreover, the county magistrate was the grandson-in-law of a high-ranking official in the imperial court. If the female protagonist killed the county magistrate just like that, the official in the imperial court definitely wouldn’t let her off. When the time came, he would send a few memorials to the emperor to slander Qin Qing for killing an official of the imperial court. Qin Qing would have to pay with her life!

Qin Qing knew that the male lead was right, but she couldn’t take it lying down. She pretended to listen to the male lead’s arrangements. After the male lead let his guard down, she arranged for her subordinates to assassinate the county magistrate and took revenge for her subordinates.

This was the original plot, but a few days ago, Lu Zhen had discussed it with the director. She said that based on Qin Qing’s personality, it was impossible for her to secretly assassinate the county magistrate. This county magistrate had caused the deaths of so many of her subordinates. She had to behead him in front of everyone to comfort the spirits of those dead soldiers in heaven.

Lu Zhen looked at the director sincerely. “In these scenes, the heroine has made many mistakes. She didn’t discover the county magistrate’s betrayal. She even took the risk of leading her subordinates out to attack the enemy troops. Her decision led to the deaths of her soldiers. In the eyes of the audience, even if she is the heroine, this is an unforgivable mistake. We need a scene to enrich the heroine’s image. Yes, she is a person who makes mistakes, but she has also grown from this fiasco. The audience needs to see her determination to take revenge.”

The reason Lu Zhen had these thoughts was naturally because in her previous life, she had seen netizens’ comments in the comments section. In the comments, many people scolded the female protagonist for being too naive and said that she didn’t consider how unpredicatable the human heart was. The county magistrate had already made it so obvious, but she had yet to realize that the county magistrate was a traitor.

In the original script, the reason for writing this scene was to reflect the growth and transformation of the female lead so that she would understand the evils of the human heart and the cruelty of war. However, the audience wouldn’t consider that.

Lu Zhen didn’t want to intervene too much, but she thought there could be a better way to handle the scenes. There should be something to keep the heroine from seeming too stupid.

In her previous life, Lu Zhen saw many posts saying that her character wasn’t as likable as Lu Rou’s character. For example, in this war scene, the audience said that she relied on the male lead no matter what she did. Without the male lead, she couldn’t do anything well.

Naturally, the reborn Lu Zhen wouldn’t let that happen. She had to do her best to change the heroine’s persona.
