01.
After knowing that Princess Lydia was prevented from going to the Demon Realm, the rest of the crew were still very anxious. Of course they knew the importance of the role played by Princess Lydia. And they also think this matter is quite difficult, even though Mr. Greenwald is the prince of the Demon Race, but it is Emperor Yulan who made this decision... So, everyone is quite worried. After all, at present, most people's thinking is still limited to "how to get Emperor Yulan to agree with Princess Delia to go to the lower realm".
In comparison, Hill was much calmer and calmer. He temporarily put down the matter at hand, took Erwin to the human world, first notified the old Jackson, and then let Olivia contact Princess Lydia, and had a private meeting with her at the Duke's mansion.
Princess Lydia was told in advance that Greenwald was going to meet her, so she also made some mental preparations. When she walked into the room, she saw Greenwald sitting on a recliner and taking a nap. His hair was silver at this time, and it was casually scattered on a black luxurious cloak.
There is only a small lamp lit inside the house, but the moonlight outside is very bright, covering everything with a thin light blue veil.
Lydia thought in her heart, it really is a demon, this gesture has never been seen on humans before... However, she immediately remembered Theodore's bright eyes, and she still prefers people like Theodore .
"Mr. Greenwald." Princess Lydia spoke first, "Good night."
"Good night, honorable lady." Hill opened his eyes, and Princess Lydia found that his eyes were blood red... Today Hill did not change the color of his hair and pupils, but maintained a strange appearance, "except Besides this polite greeting, do you have anything else to say?"
Although Lydia had already made mental preparations, she didn't expect the other party to say it so directly... This made her pride as a princess a little damaged. She was silent for a moment, "I'm sorry."
"You should feel sorry, you will delay a lot of things." Hill said relentlessly.
"... yes." Lydia backed off again.
"You can also see how hard our entire crew is working to make movies during this period of time. At least during this period of time, we all have a common dream-to make this beautiful story into a movie and show it to everyone. And you are clearly in During the audition, you also said that you can do what you need to do when you make a movie, and now you have broken your promise."
If others dared to say such things to her, Lydia would probably be angry, but now she only feels guilty. She didn't receive much princess treatment in the crew, and everyone treated her as an ordinary girl (except for human actors), so Lydia felt quite relaxed at the time, and the role she played during this period was just tired of all kinds of The escaped princess of the royal tedious affairs, coupled with some drama, so at this moment she is really talking to Hill as an ordinary girl.
"But it's not your fault, after all, you have to listen to your father." Hill saw that the reproach was almost finished, so he changed the subject, "He said that your father is also your king, whether as a daughter or Subject, you have to listen to him. I can understand it too."
What he said... actually added fuel to the fire.
At this moment, Princess Lydia couldn't help feeling dissatisfied with her father.
"You've done a major damage to the crew," Hill continued.
"... I'm sorry, and I'm willing to compensate for these losses." Princess Lydia said softly.
"Not only on gold coins, but also on emotions." Hill said, "Theodore is looking forward to filming the next plot with you."
Lydia bit her lip.
"Since you are part of the crew, I will directly explain the current situation." Hill said, "Next, I have three options. You will be removed from the crew completely.”
Lydia frowned.
Of course she didn't want this to happen... But through this incident, she suddenly realized that she really couldn't make any decisions. Or to be precise, she can only make decisions on some trivial matters.
"Personally, I really don't want to do this, because your performance is really good. It would be a loss for the crew to delete your previous scenes." He is quite a tough guy, and he is very convincing when he is sincere.
The more you praise Lydia's acting skills at this time, the more dissatisfied Lydia will be with Emperor Yulan who made this decision. Of course Hill knew this.
"What about the next choice?" Lydia asked, regardless of her other ideas, but at least she really wanted the movie to be completed.
"The second option is to rewrite the script so that you die halfway. You only need to shoot a death scene in the human world. The disadvantages of this are also obvious." Hill spread his hands, "You have read the script , You should know that you were supposed to become a queen, but you died halfway because you couldn’t film the following plot... This in itself is disrespectful to the character, and it will also have an impact on the entire story.”
'You should have been queen. '
This sentence is a little too obvious with a strong hint.
Will the other party see Hill's intention to sow discord? It doesn't matter if you see it, this is actually a conspiracy, because after all, Emperor Yulan really didn't let Lydia go to the Demon Realm, this is an unchangeable fact.
Lydia's complexion changed a little, and she didn't know what she thought of.
"The third option." Hill didn't care. Induction and bewitching are things that are done step by step. Haste and waste may have the opposite effect, so Hill continued, "You should know that human magic There is a very magical face-changing technique in the movie, and there are very few people who can use this kind of high-end magic. I will try to find such a mage and persuade him to change into your appearance and take pictures instead of you to complete the following plot. I Personally, I prefer the third choice, although I don't think anyone can replace your acting skills."
It can be seen by now that what Hill said was pure nonsense... What he used was the unequal information between the two parties.
Higher demons can transform into other forms-this is something most humans don't understand.
In fact, human beings really don't understand the information about the demons. There are all kinds of messy rumors, both true and false. In fact, there is also a saying in those rumors that "demons can turn into human beings to deceive human beings", but Hill successfully confuses it and pretends it is true.
Lydia felt a powerless anger again. After a while, she finally calmed down and asked, "I heard from Olivia that you are the prince of the lower world?"
"Demon Realm." Hill corrected.
"Okay, Demon World." Lydia nodded.
Hill nodded, "I am the Prince of the Demon Realm." That's right. Broken cans. he thought.
"Why do you have so much power?" Lydia asked, with doubts in her eyes, "You have more power than my brother."
"There are two reasons, one, because there is only one devil king in the devil world; two, I am a prince, and theoretically I am the most noble demon clan other than the devil king, so it is normal to have great power." Hill opened his eyes and said nonsense: "The devil king Losing the war, I told him his way wasn't going to work, and persuaded him to give me some power."
It's just... make it up.
Hill even planned to have a relationship with Lydia's elder brothers, Caesar and Luis Lara, and tell them later that he had killed the Demon King and rose to power, so as to confuse the brothers and sisters... But to be honest, Hill feels that the current Emperor Yulan is also very good, at least easy to deceive. It is said that Caesar and Louis have the ambition to be a wise king, so although Caesar and Lydia may be more friendly to the demons at present, Hill still prefers the stupider Emperor Yulan.
Politics, politics.
Lydia fell silent after hearing Hill's words.
Hill didn't quite know what she was thinking. He just did what he should do and said what he should say. He felt that the other party's thoughts should also be in his plan... "In short, the film still needs to continue shooting .” Hill sighed, showing weakness on purpose: “I’m not sure either, but I hope it goes well.”
"Well..." Lydia nodded and said slowly.
"By the way." Hill said, "I heard Baker talk about the conflict between Theodore and your maid. Presumably your maid has already filed a complaint?"
"Vera told me." Lydia said.
"Well. If I were you, I would change to a personal servant. Obviously your servant lacks education." Hill said.
"She's doing it for my own good too." Lydia retorted, but her tone was not strong, obviously she was also dissatisfied with Vera.
"Emperor Yulan is also doing it for your own good." Hill said in a plausible way.
Lydia froze for a moment, "I see..."
"I'm just expressing my opinion." Hill shrugged, and then got out of the matter, irresponsible, like a scumbag: "I'm a demon, I just acted according to the ideas of the demons. I said it. I don’t understand how you human beings think. Maybe your situation is different from ours. But I personally think that birth is not a problem. In the devil world, the strong are respected. Of course, the strong are divided into various types. But it doesn't look like you humans are like that."
Hill felt that he had given enough views to the princess today, so he got up to say goodbye and left.
The above words were all for Princess Lydia. As for the actual plan, Hill decided from the very beginning to let the high demons transform into Lydia. As for the meeting with Princess Lydia just now, he said that he did something bad.
As for feeling guilty...
"I'm also doing it for her." Hill said to Erwin next to him with a kind smile: "If the princess doesn't change, 80% of the future will be married to a nobleman or the prince of the lord. It must be very painful for a thoughtful princess to live her life like this."
Erwin nodded, "That's true..."
But why do you always feel that the Demon Lord is a bit scary...
02.
After Hill returned to the Demon Realm, he directly approached the succubus who filmed "He is a Dragon" last time. The other party is already familiar with making movies, so it is also convenient to use. However, the succubus can only change the facial features initially, and it cannot be refined enough to completely become another person. Hill used the power of the Demon King to make her look similar to Princess Lydia, but it was only similar, not exactly the same, it was the kind of familiar people who could tell that they were not alone—to such an extent.
This was Hill's intention.
If Hill really moves out someone who is exactly the same, he is worried that it will arouse the vigilance of Emperor Yulan. Yes, this is Tibetan clumsiness. Moreover, Hill also planned to let the succubus make a good film, and he would write a movie review after the final release, saying that the succubus in the back is not as good as the princess in the front. This is the only regret of this movie...
The fact that Emperor Yulan did not let Princess Lydia go to the Demon Realm, Hill wanted to maximize its influence as much as possible.
At present, only Monroe knows Hill's overall plan, and Hill is not worried that Monroe thinks he is cunning. After all, Monroe was tricked into being a demon by Hill in this way.
In addition, Hill published this matter in the next issue of the magazine, saying that he was sorry for the delay in the release time, which was due to the actor's personal reasons, so it is unnecessary to mention it. Emperor Yulan was also reading the magazine. He was very satisfied with the fact that the magazine did not name anyone for personal reasons. He felt that this was taking into account their identities... As a result, in private, the old Jackson's family had already passed the "unobstructed" Olivier Ya, spread the word about it. At least the nobles who should know know about it, and the princess herself also knows that this matter has caused a commotion outside.
—So, Hill likes Emperor Yulan.
The movie was temporarily suspended, and then the consequences were widespread.
Everyone in Helen Lester's recent salon was complaining about it.
"Really, such a thing happened."
"I don't care what His Majesty thinks, I want to watch a movie!"
"I want, too!"
"Let's petition together."
"Yes, a joint petition."
Helen and Lester suppressed everyone's emotions. She told Hill about the incident and asked for his opinion. Hill thought about it, and at first he felt that it was too much, but then he thought that Emperor Yulan was a soft guy, so he can be tossed about like this. He has been at ease for too long, it's time to be tossed and tossed.
Hill convinced himself on a psychological level, and then sanctimoniously agreed with Helen and Lester.
Emperor Yulan has been quite depressed lately, every now and then a minister would chat with him, and then "accidentally talk about" why the filming of that movie stopped recently, and his wife kept complaining about things like that. After a few times, Emperor Yulan got angry and said directly: "Then let your daughter go to the lower realm."
The minister said: "My daughter has long wanted to go to the lower realm, and now she thinks about the dragon taking her away every day... Seeing her being so naughty, I wish a dragon like Arman would take her away. It’s okay to be happy because of that.”
All right. Emperor Yulan was also speechless.
In fact, at this moment, Emperor Yulan is stubborn. He originally said "I think what you said makes sense but I don't want to stop", but now it is "everyone tells me to do this but I don't want to do it." The latter is more capable It reflects his majesty as an emperor, at least he thinks so.
Old Jackson is naturally clear about this matter. He watched all the reactions of Emperor Yulan in this incident with cold eyes, and finally realized for the first time with a clear attitude of a bystander that his old friend, his majesty, and his king are really Abandoned.
At this moment, Emperor Yulan tore up their joint petition and yelled at the ministers: "Will I be the emperor or you will be the emperor? I have already decided, and this order cannot be changed!"
As a result, Emperor Yulan thought in his heart after returning to the bedroom, hey, he actually wanted to watch a movie, and now he actually regretted it a little bit, and felt that it would be okay to let Lydia go to the lower realm... But he let go, Wouldn't it be embarrassing to talk back? Forget it, let's wrong Lydia and the film crew, after all, his face is more important.
It has to be said that in this incident, Emperor Yulan fully demonstrated the inferiority of many ordinary people.
Lydia was quietly drinking the blackberry juice taken out of the restaurant in the complex in the bedroom. She listened to the report of her subordinates and nodded, "I see, it looks like it's really not working." She said.
"Your Highness Princess..." the maid Vera called out worriedly, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Lydia stood up, "There are so many people out there speaking for me, I'm better than ever."
"They're not talking for you, they just want to watch a movie." Vera said.
"Grandpa once taught us to know how to 'follow the trend', and today I finally understand what it means." Lydia said.
Vera was a little confused.
Lydia turned around and looked directly at Vera, "You have been with me for a long time, Vera."
"Yes, Your Royal Highness."
"It's time for you to live your own life for two days." Lydia said, "I will restore your identity, and you can go."
Vera turned pale in shock: "My lord, Your Royal Highness! You, I... have you listened to someone's slander! I am loyal to you!"
"The director said something to me that benefited me a lot." Lydia nodded.
"It turned out to be that demon, you can't listen to that kind of person!" Vera said, "He is just a humble..."
"Humble?" Lydia raised her voice and interrupted Vera, "He is a noble prince! And his power is much greater than that of my brother and me combined! He can make so many decisions by himself, but What about us?"
Lydia's words undoubtedly expressed her heartfelt feelings all along.
Ambition... In the royal family, how could you not have some ambition
Sitting in the bedroom now, I know that there are so many people outside who want me to continue acting in movies. Although they know that their focus is on movies, they are still eagerly looking forward to her—in fact, there are some who scold her, but they are filtered out by her subordinates Yes, no report.
Vera turned pale in shock, "Princess Lydia, you just need to learn to be more like a princess, and marry a noble man in the future, this is your mission!"
A sentence from the protagonist Theodore in "The Evil Lord" suddenly appeared in Princess Lydia's mind: My fate is up to me. Then she remembered the domineering slogan in the promotional text, "If the sky presses me, it will split the day; if the earth holds me, it will crush the ground." She suddenly had a feeling of excitement in her blood, and she said: "My mission is not determined by others, nor is my destiny determined by others." She looked directly at Vera, her voice was sonorous and powerful, "I am the empire The most honorable person besides my father, I should be able to grasp more things."
When she said this, her eyes were quite bright, as if a bright flame was burning inside.
Vera froze. After a while, she finally found her words, "Then, Princess Lydia, don't drive me away, okay?"
"Since you know that I am driving you away, you must also know the reason." Princess Lydia said.
"I... I'm sorry Your Royal Highness, I will never do that again! Forgive me! I have been with you for so many years, I..."
Lydia looked at Vera's unpretentious expression, "There is another choice."
"Please speak, Your Highness Princess!"
"Go to Baron Baker's side," Lydia said lightly, "If you still want to do things for me, go to his side, he will arrange for you."
Vera didn't hesitate this time, "Okay, Your Royal Highness!"
"If you do well, I can let you come back." Vera thought for a while and drew such a big cake for her.
"Okay! Princess!"
In ancient European courts, there were no female officials like those in the East—Europe did not use multiple concubines like the Chinese emperor, and then many female officials could be sealed, such as in charge of weaving, distribution of concubines, and so on. Women in European courts were either noble ladies or maids-in-waiting of noble ladies.
Oh, by the way, those ladies all have husbands.
As for why they live in the palace, there are generally two reasons. One is that their families or husbands send them to the palace, hoping to gain benefits for themselves through their communication with the monarch... Well... This is a very interesting statement, which makes It's so interesting to imagine people's wild dreams.
In fact, a lot of fantastic things happened.
Otherwise, why are there so many noble ladies who cheated on the king in the Middle Ages...
There is another reason, that is, the court needs the services of noble ladies, such as taking care of the queen and educating the little princess.
So Lydia couldn't arrange Vera in other positions in the palace, so she was sent directly out of the palace.
As a result, after Vera reported to Joan and Baker, Joan and Baker actually assigned her to Theodore. Yes, he asked her to be Theodore's subordinate.
Vera immediately felt very humiliated, but at this moment she had no choice but to obey Theodore's order. She thought Theodore would make things difficult for her, but in the end, Theodore smiled and said: "The limitations of my background make me unable to see some things clearly. If there are any problems in my decision-making in the future, please ask Miss Vera You just name it."
Vera was stunned, and nodded.
This Theodore seems to be different from the noble young master she usually comes into contact with.
03.
Hill temporarily put aside the matter of the movie and let it settle down. After finishing the scenes that should be arranged in the lower world, he began to think about something new.
jelly!
If it is the kind of more natural and healthy jelly, it is not only delicious, but also has good nutritional value. It itself contains very low calories and contains a lot of dietary fiber, and different styles of jelly also have unique nutrition, specifically the nutrition of various fruits, and some other additives, such as high calcium Jelly, AD calcium jelly. In addition, laxative, weight loss and beautification... There are some effects of this kind.
But these are not the focus for Hill, the focus is... delicious.
Most of the jelly on earth currently uses seaweed glue. There are many ways to make jelly. Hill has made inquiries and plans to try "agar" to make it. If it was on Earth, Hill could directly buy agar online, but not now, he had to extract the agar from some seaweed first.
Agar is a good thing. It is one of the most widely used seaweed gels on the earth. It is widely used in food, medicine, daily chemical industry, and bioengineering. And its main nutrients are dietary fiber and protein, so it can detoxify and nourish the skin, lower blood sugar and so on... And with agar, Hill can produce more things.
But first, Hill was going to make jelly.
It took him nearly an hour to figure out how to extract agar on Baidu. After all, all kinds of information on the Internet are too complicated. He directly asked the dwarves to make the corresponding mechanical equipment, and planned to mass-produce it. Anyway, that thing is very useful, and it's not just for jelly, not just for appetite.
The dwarves were pretty quick, and Hill had his first batch of agar in two weeks, and he rolled up his sleeves and started making jelly.
It is actually very simple to make jelly after having agar. Hill peeled and cut the peaches and grapes, and then took the dried rose buds from the blood clan. First soak the rose buds in hot water to get rose water (ordinary water can also be used), then soak the agar in warm water and boil it in boiling water until it completely melts, then Hill carefully filters the impurities inside Go out, this is related to the appearance of the finished product.
Then Hill put honey, rock sugar and rose water into the agar slurry, and boiled it until the honey and rock sugar melted. Finally, put the fruit in the container first, and then add the agar solution. After cooling down, let the Lich make a refrigerator, put it in and it will be OK the next day.
When Hill was doing this, he thought to himself, this is really simple. You can make it casually on the earth before, but after thinking about it, if you want to eat it when you are on the earth, you can just buy it, and you don’t need to do it...
Thinking about these things, he dismantled the refrigerator by hand, then took out the container inside, and his eyes lit up after removing the lid.
Whoa, jelly.
Dig a spoonful into the mouth, smooth Q bomb, this is the wonderful taste! Although it is not crystal clear, but the appearance is also very good-looking, not to mention the taste, it is elastic and refreshing, the sweetness is not greasy, and there is a strong fruity aroma spread out.
... Eating snacks is really blissful!
Hill narrowed his eyes in happiness. think.
Magnolia City and Josh Kenny are in dire straits.
... We want to watch a movie ah ah! ! !
