Chapter 44 - A World Class Actress

Elizabeth was taken aback from seeing the flowers in front of her, she grabs them and turned around curiously to see the person who gave her the flowers and standing behind her.

"Senior…"

Before she could finish what she was about to say, she notices the man raised one of his brows, "I mean Bro Ming… What are this for?"

Huang Ming did not expect the girl to show off such a soft and adorable expression that he started to stutter. "Well… Ma-My si-sister said these flowers have a good medical scent which is good for your recovery. The different leaves are also all medicinal plants that you can boil and drink."

Elizabeth brought the flowers closer to her face as she smelled them. It surprised her to smell the strong medical plants indeed. "Thanks, Bro Ming."

With her soft smile, she has fully bewitched the man as he froze and stared at her, not knowing what to say. He scratched his head as he smiled back to her instead.

"Alright now, Huang Ming get lost and get ready…" Yeng yelled as she pushed him aside so she can finish what she was doing earlier.

...

The director explained to everyone what he expects to happen in the next scene. Everyone was worried since it's an intense fight scene between the royal ladies. At the same time, they were curious if whether Li Zi can pull it off.

"Do you think Li Zi will be fine?"

"I wonder if she'll be able to pull it off…"

Everyone went to their places as they prepare for the take.

"Action!"

"Who do you think you are?" yelled one of the royal concubines as he looked at the empress, "How dare you look at me like that when you're no longer someone of great importance."

"I am born with noble blood, who are you to define who I am?" The Empress coldly looked at the royal concubine who then pushed her aside.

"B*tch you dare stare at me like that!"

The royal concubine looked at her ladies-in-waiting and signal them to punish the Empress. They pulled the Empress's hair as they slap her face and rip her clothes off.

"Dare stares at me like that again…"

The Empress did indeed stare at the royal concubine again and gave a proud look, "I am still nobler than you…"

The royal concubine grew in rage as she pulled the Empress's hair and drag her across the room. Pushing her through the ground.

Everyone suddenly froze when the door opened, came in a calm looking girl who was carrying a basket.

When the girl witness what was happening, she calmly went inside the room and dropped the basket off the table. She said nothing and just turned her back at them.

The ladies-in-waiting were scared as they saw the princess walked in.

"Princess Sun, you shouldn't come to such an awful place?" The royal concubine softly spoke, as she went and greeted the princess.

As she approached her, Princess Sun turned around with a dark, icy expression on her face. She grabs the royal concubine by the neck, causing her to tremble in fear and down on her knees.

"Who are you to tell me where to go?"

"Princess, I'm just worried about you." The royal concubine said as the princess continued to choke her.

"Dare say you are worried for me, who are you?"

She then slowly removed her hand around the woman's throat and then grab her hair. She then looked at the two ladies in waiting and yelled. "You two, how dare you still stand in my presence."

The two court ladies quickly went down on their knees and lower their heads.

"Now slap yourself."

They looked at the princess…

"..."

"Your highness?"

They both looked at each other confused about her sudden order.

"Do I need to repeat myself." Princess Sun glared at them with such a hostile look on her eyes.

The two ladies started to slap themselves softy.

Princess Sun sighed, disappointed in what she was seeing. "Is that the way you just slap that woman earlier?"

They did not dare argue and soon started slapping themselves as hard as they could when the princess questioned them.

"Now for you." Princess Sun looked at the woman in her hand. "Do you know who that woman is?"

"Yes, Princess Sun she was the former Empress." The royal concubine answered as tears rolled down her face seeing how the princess who was known to be calm was giving her such blood l.u.s.t look.

Princess Sun got down and looked at the woman in the eyes with such ill will. "What I'm asking you is do you know who she is?"

The woman trembled in fear as she does not know what the princess meant.

"Then let me ask you, who am I?"

"You are the beloved daughter of the Emperor, the First Princess Sun who is also known as the Blessed Phoenix. Who would dare not know you, Your Highness..."

Princess Sun loosens her grip on the woman's hair, "I see… So you do know me."

"Of course, who won't dare acknowledge the Blessed Phoenix who came from the heavens."

"Well, she that woman there...." Princess Sun turned the woman as she pointed her finger toward the woman on the ground. "That woman is my mother."

The royal concubine and ladies-in-waiting were all pale worriedly about the woman's identity. In rage, Princess Sun slams the woman's face to the ground making such a loud and big impact.

The whole room turned cold and erie as they felt the animosity coming out of the Princess.

She then walked to the wounded woman and removed her coat and wrap it around her as she slowly helped her up.

"I am the daughter of the Dragon King, the First Princess of The Empire, known as the Blessed Phoenix. Who gave you the right to harm my mother in front of me. By my power, I shall make you wish you did not enter the palace..."

She then gently help the woman out, leaving the three in shock as they realize they'll soon be dead.

The Empress turned around and glimpse at them giving off such a proud smile making them regret what they have done.

"Cut!"

Everyone started cheering and applauding after seeing such an intense and magnificent scene.

The director could not hold his excitement and run towards the girl with such delight, "Li Zi you were amazing, I really didn't expect you'll be so talented and your acting was on point and one in a million."

Soon everyone shared their thoughts on what they just saw.

"Empress Zheng was amazing, her proud smile, in the end, was just to die for."

"Who would have thought Li Zi could be this amazing. She was like a demon when she went in rage."

The director then approached the three actresses who look like they are still in a daze from what happened. "Everyone, you were amazing. Those expressions on your face were just perfect."

"Director, of course, our expression would be great, I was dead scared just now."

"Same here, I almost felt like wetting myself."

"Trust me, Director, if you were in our place, I'm sure you would be dead scared as well."

The three continued to comment on what they just experienced whilst everyone else found it funny.

However, from a distance, a person was in fury seeing all the praises the girl was getting.

"Bloody h*ll, who is she? I thought she was an unknown actress, yet she was able to pull something like that. Everything is now ruined, how am I gonna find proof that she just a piece of trash." Long Yiyi bit her nails as she stumps her feet in anger.

Wang Ji and Liying witness what just happened, they too did not expect Li Zi's professionalism in acting. She was like a world class actress.
