The film crew officially started work the next day, and in James Chip's own words, it was his first time encountering so many issues as a director after so many years.
After arriving in King Town, the work went much smoother, but for the actors, it became a lot more demanding.
The weather in King Town kept dropping day by day, and after a rain, the temperature plunged into the single digits.
In King Town, Jane Sampson had a scene where the Honored Princess Consort Dawn performs a dance for divine favor. To ensure a good effect, Jane performed personally. After spending a long time learning several dance moves with a dance teacher, she danced in self-absorption at night in the single-digit temperatures, wearing nothing but a thin gauze dance costume.
After shooting the scene, Jane successfully caught a cold.
Lucy Brisk made ginger tea for Jane continuously for a week and used cold medicine to no avail; the cold lasted an entire half a month.
