[Women disguised as men/Marriage first, love later/Secret love comes true/Two female protagonists]
Qiu Che's elder daughter disguised as a man to take the imperial examination for her brother. For the so-called great plan of her father and brother, she married Li Qingwu, the most favored princess of the dynasty, at all costs.
But after ten years of marriage, he never touched her finger.
On the day she became the prime minister with power over the court, she died at the hands of her biological father.
Her brother stepped on her corpse and became successful.
And she died quietly in the prime minister's mansion in the cold spring night.
It was the wife she had never seen before who collected her corpse for her, set fire to the prime minister's mansion, and finally committed suicide with a sword in front of her grave. When she
opened her eyes again, she returned to Zhenfeng for eighteen years.
It was the year when she had just won the first place in the imperial examination and was riding high with great pride.
She rode her horse through the streets and suddenly looked up to see a man standing by the pavilion surrounded by people, looking at her quietly from top to bottom.
With a cinnabar mole and red lips, she was extremely beautiful.
There were endless sparks in her eyes. It was not
until this life that Qiu Che finally knew that the bad fate that she thought was calculated by despicable means in her previous life was actually the fate that Li Qingwu had sought after by bowing three times and nine times in the Golden Palace.
She was Li Qingwu, a model of a lady from a noble family, and she rebelled only once in her life.
It was also what the other party had been seeking for countless days and nights.

Qiu Che had a long dream after the reunion .
In the dream, she lived a miserable life and finally became a powerful minister with all the power in the world.
But on the night she accepted the imperial edict and became prime minister, her biological father deceived her into the backyard and sent her to the west with a bowl of poison.
On the second day, the Prime Minister's Mansion was in flames.
Someone carried her cold and stiff body from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the quiet and uninhabited wilderness until she was laid to rest.
...Then he stood in front of her grave and killed himself with a sword.
When she closed her eyes, she still held half of the comb in her hand. Qiu Che subconsciously looked at it, and when the blood spattered, the scarlet liquid seemed to penetrate the hazy dream and fell on Qiu Che's face.
Her pupils shrank.
Immediately, the pictures that flew by in front of her eyes shattered in front of her.
A floating dream, a ephemeral life.
Qiu Che opened his eyes suddenly, gasping for air, his vision was dark.
Light filtered in from the window sill, spreading into the unfamiliar yet familiar bedroom, quietly revealing the fact that she had been reborn.
ââThat's right.
Qiu Che is dead.
But came alive again.
From the time of her death to her rebirth, she had been witnessing from a bystander's perspective the prime minister's mansion being burned to the ground by his wife Li Qingwu, and then committing suicide with a sword.
At this time, three days had passed since she woke up again and returned to ten years ago.
This year is the 18th year of Zhenfeng.
It was also the year when she became the number one scholar and suffered from horse hoof disease.
Qiu Che raised his hands and covered his eyes slightly tiredly.
After a long time, she lifted the quilt and got out of bed, stood in front of the mirror, and looked at her young body at the age of 18.
Eighteen-year-old Qiu Che is not much different from her ten years later, with three-dimensional and beautiful facial features.
By making her eyebrows thicker, she can disguise herself as a handsome man with excellent temperament. Coupled with her stature, which is taller than most men, there is absolutely no flaw.
Women's clothing is bright and beautiful, and men's clothing is handsome.
Soon after he is beaten and paraded through the streets, this face will become the dream lover of countless women in the capital.
The only thing that is different from ten years later is probably the eyes.
A person who has been in a high position for a long time and has been walking on thin ice all year round has different eyesight from a person who only reads books from sages and has never seen much of the world.
For a moment, Qiu Che seemed to see himself ten years later through this dim mirror.
She stretched out her hand and the moment her fingertips touched the mirror, a face suddenly flashed in her mind.
Li Qingwu.
In his previous life, Qiu Che never imagined that after ten years of ups and downs in the officialdom, he would not be sincere.
In the end, it was Li Qingwu, his wife whom she had never laid eyes on once and whom she had never laid a finger on since marrying her, who collected the bones for her and avenged her.
He even committed suicide with her in front of her grave -
as if he had committed suicide for love.
Qiu Che has thought about it countless times in these three short days, why did Li Qingwu do this, and what are the benefits of doing so?
But there is only one conclusion that can be drawn:
she likes Qiu Che.
But wasn't this marriage forced by Qiu Che through despicable means because of his father and brother's request?
It was a good thing that Li Qingwu didn't hate her, and she had been neglected by her for ten years -
I heard that many outsiders even laughed at her for not being favored by her husband, and that sooner or later she would be a concubine.
Then why she still...
can't figure it out.
Then donât think about it.
Qiu Che lowered his eyelids, changed his clothes, and called out: "Yunyan."
A young maid held a basin for washing, pushed the door in from the outside, and said, "Second Young Master, are you awake? You are here for the palace examination. The time is coming, my servant will help you wash up. "
"...Well."
Today is April 26th, the day when the tributes take part in the palace examination.
Qiu Che washed his face as she served him, and looked at her strangely from time to time.
Yun Yan was a little creeped out by his stare, and couldn't help but blush: "Second Young Master, is there something on this slave's face?"
Qiu Che retracted his gaze and smiled lightly: "No, it's just that Yun Yan seems to be more beautiful than before. She 's become more supple in the past few days."
Yun Yan's face turned red. She didn't understand why the second young master, who had just been busy studying in the past, suddenly started to praise others. She subconsciously touched her face and said, "Young Master, I'm sorry."
Qiu Che didn't seem to notice. Seeing her ecstatic and proud expression, she threw down her face scarf, dusted her sleeves casually, and said, "Let's go."
Yun Yan subconsciously asked, "Where are you going?"
After saying that, she hit it again in annoyance. He opened his mouth, as if regretting that he had talked too much.
Fortunately, Qiu Che didn't care about it, he just glanced at her and said calmly: "Palace examination."
Yun Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then froze for a moment: "Master, don't you go to pay your respects to the master and his wife?"
Qiu Che twitched the corners of his lips and said nothing . Respond.
Yun Yan couldn't figure out what her smile meant, so she had no choice but to shut up anxiously.
Qiu Che walked in front, thinking about the clues he had compiled in the past few days, and combined with his own memories,
he had a clear picture of the situation of the Qiu family ten years ago in his memories.
Ten years ago, the Qiu family was still a declining old clan that had not yet risen because of her high school education.
Her father had lost all his remaining wealth and was drunk all day long. He didn't care about her imperial examination at all.
Even the news that she had won the tribute was sent by the eldest lady to tell him.
Her brother, on the other hand, hangs out with a group of dandies every day, playing chickens and fighting dogs. He is uneducated and has no skills. He is away from home for ten and a half days out of the month, and he cannot have much affection for her.
They had been together for decades in their previous life, and they had just been using her.
As for Madam Liu?
Qiu Che is the daughter of the second concubine Wang, and with Liu's magnanimity, she has been unhappy with them for a long time. It is a miracle that the two of them have been able to live well in the house for so long. How could they be separated from each other.
And her biological mother Wang is an aunt. In today's era of numerous rules and strict hierarchies, there is no way to step out of the house without the instructions of the head of the family.
Moreover, the Qiu family's gold and jade have been in ruins for a long time, and there are countless arrears.
The huge house looks classic, but it doesn't smell like a human being at all.
On the short road from the courtyard to the outside of the house, there was only one Yunyan, carrying a box containing exam preparation items, accompanying Qiu Che.
Qiu Che thought about this, thoughtfully.
The Qiu family only has a horse sedan in the backyard. But when the two of them arrived at Wanhe, the carriage was nowhere to be seen, and even the guarding groom slept like a dead pig.
This was the norm when the Qiu family was in decline, but Qiu Che had been in a high position for many years, so he couldn't help but frown when he saw this.
Yun Yan had always been smart, but when she saw something wrong with her expression, she immediately stepped forward and shouted with eloquent words.
The groom yawned and woke up. When he saw it was Qiu Che, his fearful expression instantly turned into impatient. He waved his hand and said: "Master Ma rode away this morning, and the sedan cannot drive. Second Master, please forgive me."
Qiu Che noticed that Yun Yan glanced at him with his peripheral vision.
But before she said anything, Yun Yan stamped her feet and angrily said, "Didn't you hear that the second young master is going to take the imperial examination today? How can you let the horse go to the eldest young master?! Do you know the importance of this?"
The groom was a little unhappy. , but still listened with drooped ears.
Qiu Che allowed her to lose her temper, and then stopped her softly: "Yunyan, let's go."
"Second Young Master, what should we do?" Yunyan stopped talking and looked at him with a worried face, "There is no carriage. "Is it too late to go to the palace gate? How about I ask Madam..."
Qiu Che took the box from her hand, waved his hand and said, "I can go by myself."
Yun Yan was stunned for a moment: "Huh?" But Young Master..."
But before she could finish her words, when she regained consciousness, Qiu Che's figure had already gone away.
She frowned while looking at Qiu Che's back, and whispered: "It's strange, why do I feel that this second young master... has been so uncertain lately."
Qiu Mansion is located on the edge of the capital, and has been affected by the Xuanyin coup three years ago. After that, he had been in poverty for a long time, his house was deserted, and many of his servants ran away because of this.
Qiu Che had just left the palace and was thinking about whether to use the few taels of silver he had left to hitchhike or to just fly over the wall in order to reach the palace gate quickly without any trouble or money -
even though this might lead to being caught by the city. The Jin Yiwei patrolling inside thought she was a flower thief and captured her on the spot, but she had learned martial arts for several years and was considered to be both civilized and martial.
What if I'm lucky and didn't get caught? Maybe it's actually possible.
While he was thinking, a sedan came in at the city gate, driven by a guard with a saber, and walked slowly towards the palace gate.
Qiu Che recognized him - he was Fufeng, the secret guard next to Li Qingwu and a member of the Jinyi Guards.
Qiu Che's mind was filled with thoughts and he stopped for some reason. He stood quietly in front of the door and watched the carriage pass by.
It seemed that when the wind blew, the curtains in the car were lifted for a moment.
Qiu Che wasn't sure if Li Qingwu was sitting in it. After all, the sedan was indeed very low-key and not like the rumored car that the eldest princess would ride in.
She just looked at Fufeng and suddenly remembered that in her previous life, she asked to marry Li Qingwu at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet one month after the palace examination.
No matter what Li Qingwu thinks about her, Qiu Che already owed her a lot in his previous life. In this life, she does not intend to involve Li Qingwu in the Qiu family's right and wrong.
Let her be her golden eldest princess.
A life of peace and joy like this might be the ending she deserves most.
But then, as soon as he finished sighing, Qiu Che watched helplessly as the carriage passed by him, then slowly turned around and arrived in front of him.
She: "?"
The secret guard driving the carriage had a straight face: "Candidates who are going to the palace to take the exam?"
Qiu Che nodded in confusion: "How did you know?"
Fufeng glanced at the box in her hand and did not answer. , just raised his chin: "My master is kind-hearted. I am afraid that you will miss the time, so I will let you sit on it, but I will take you to the palace gate."
Qiu Che couldn't help but glance at the tightly closed curtain of the carriage, thinking, but he just let you Such a good thing happened to her?
She cupped her hands and asked: "Thank you for your kindness. I wonder which kind person is sitting in the sedan? I will come to the door to say thank you someday."
In order to pretend to be a man, she specially practiced her voice, so that she could express her original voice clearly. The exquisite female voice turned into a man's voice without any flaw.
Then put on a fake Adam's apple that could be mistaken for the real one, and no one would be able to recognize that she was actually a woman after so many years.
After hearing this, Fufeng was a little impatient: "Are you going to sit down or not?"
There was still no movement in the carriage.
Qiu Che thanked him, and without further delay, he neatly lifted his robe and got on the horse.
Oddly enough, the originally slow carriage started to speed up after she got on it.
After galloping steadily all the way to the alley not far from the palace gate, An Yi stopped the carriage and said, "Come on down."
Qiu Che glanced at the motionless curtain inside the carriage again, then thanked and left.
After she had gone far and entered the palace gate with all the tributes, Fufeng said:
"Your Highness, that person has left."
"Yes," a gentle voice from the sedan chair said, "I know.
" A hand as white as green as jade slowly opened the car curtain, revealing a hibiscus face and a little tear stain at the end of the eye, adding a bit of charm.
But her expression was dignified and gentle, which suppressed the bright and charming color.
Li Qingwu glanced in Qiu Che's direction one last time, then put down his hand, glanced down at the half-finished embroidered handkerchief in his hand, and said softly: "Go back to the palace."
