Chapter 1: Soft and melodious music came from a garden full of flowers.
There were bursts of laughter in the music, which made people think that the atmosphere in the garden must be joyful.
Qing Xiaomo stood at the door of the garden.
The guard at the door seemed to have not seen her.
Looking at the three large characters "Imperial Garden" on the arch, she hesitated a little and walked in.
The previously blurry picture became clear this time.
In the garden, Qing Xiaomo saw the elegant Queen Mother sitting on the main seat, and saw the ministers who she had seen or not seen coming down from the left and right sides of the main seat. , and the young girl sitting behind the minister.
Among them, Qing Xiaomo saw the younger Qing Ya, and behind him was the eight-year-old Qing Xiaomo, who was sitting in her seat quietly and indifferently.
The singing and dancing in front, the delicious food next to it, the beautiful flowers and scenery all around, and the lively conversation and laughter seemed to not arouse her interest at all.
She exuded a calmness and silence that was unlike that of an eight-year-old girl.
"The Emperor has arrived."
As a high-pitched voice cut through the noise, a handsome young emperor with a lazy and evil smile appeared in front of everyone.
This was the first meeting between Qing Xiaomo and Emperor Ouyang Rui.
At the banquet that followed, Qing Xiaomo behaved appropriately.
She was a studious person, and she was as arrogant as a man.
In such an era when men were superior to women, Qing Xiaomo was not willing to be an ordinary boudoir lady.
In addition to playing music, chess, calligraphy and painting, she was familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, poems and songs, and her favorite was to read the accounts written by celebrities and strangers.
After that, Qing Xiaomo was designated by the Empress Dowager as the emperor's personal companion.
She was more like a personal maid than a companion, and she was also a chess piece that the Empress Dowager placed beside the emperor to monitor his every move.
The Queen Mother wanted to completely control Ouyang Rui in her hands, down to every detail of his life.
Qing Xiaomo was like watching a movie, in a dream.
Watching Ouyang Rui and Qing Xiaomo meet, get along, and understand each other.
For the first time, Qing Xiaomo bumped into Ouyang Rui who was secretly studying in the middle of the night and said, "The emperor seems to be different from the rumors outside."
That time Ouyang Rui grabbed her neck.
She just looked at him calmly, without panic or fear.
Qing Xiaomo reported Ouyang Rui's daily life to the Queen Mother, telling her everything she knew. but.
They are all insignificant things, some ridiculous and dandy things, eating, drinking and having fun that have nothing to do with the country.
Qing Xiaomo has enough methods to make the Queen Mother trust her.
She helped Ouyang Rui hide some things that the Queen Mother should not know.
She helped Ouyang Rui conceal his whereabouts and helped him maintain his appearance of incompetence.
She skillfully handled the relationship between the Queen Mother and the Emperor.
There is a gap in every secret, and some of Ouyang Rui's things that are unacceptable to the Queen Mother will inevitably be noticed by her.
Whenever this happens.
Qing Xiaomo would stand up to defend Ouyang Rui and use some rhetoric to eliminate the Queen Mother's suspicion.
He took some things on himself and took Ouyang Rui to be punished.
"Why do you do this?"
Ouyang Rui looked at Qing Xiaomo who had come back from receiving the punishment with a cold face.
This was not the first time she was punished for concealing something from him.
Two years of what she did.
He saw it all, and he was confused.
Qing Xiaomo smiled calmly: "I think that following a young emperor has a better future than following an old woman."
Ouyang Rui stared at Qing Xiaomo.
The two of them just looked at each other, staring at each other.
Four years.
Five years.

Qing Xiaomo always stands in front of Ouyang Rui.
She would tell him her thoughts at the appropriate time, and often the two of them would hit it off immediately.
She advised him, and she finally gained all his trust.
She said she wanted to divert the Queen Mother's attention and plan a fight between the Queen Mother and the concubines.
Qing Xiaomo intentionally or unintentionally created a rift between the Queen Mother and other imperial concubines, and helped the Queen Mother eliminate dissidents.
Finally, the Queen Mother's attention was directed to Ouyang Che, deliberately instigating and expanding the hatred between the two.
Seven years, eight years.
Ouyang Rui's strength gradually matured, and Ouyang Che became more powerful and became famous among the people.
The Queen Mother finally realized her negligence and doubted Qing Xiaomo's position.
Three forces control the Tianyou Dynasty, restricting each other and fighting against each other.
Qing Xiaomo woke up from her sleep and looked out the window at the misty morning.
Nearly half a month had passed since she entered the palace.
Every night, Qing Xiaomo would dream, and the dreams were all about the time when Qing Xiaomo was in the palace.
What happened, the picture changed from blurry to clear, from intermittent to coherent, just like the memory in the mind waking up.
She didn't know whether these were dreams or memories, and she couldn't explain why this happened, but she always knew roughly the relationship between Qing Xiaomo, Ouyang Che, and the Queen Mother.
I remember the first day I accompanied Zhao Yunruo to the palace.
As soon as I entered the palace, the people sent by the emperor brought a library due to lack of manpower.
The daily job was to clean the books.
For more than ten days, except for the little father-in-law who brought food and water, Qing Xiaomo had not seen anyone.
"Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival."
Qing Xiaomo opened the window and looked at the vibrant autumn chrysanthemums blooming in the morning dew outside the courtyard.
Qing Xiaomo thought about the Qing Xiaomo she saw in her dream.
She was smart and arrogant, she was calm and wise, and everything she did was to help Ouyang Rui obtain the maximum benefit in the battle for imperial power.
She speaks treacherous words and has her own clear ideals.
In this era, even Qing Xiaomo from modern times admires such a girl.
Qingya once commented on her daughter: "It's a pity that you are not a man."
The Imperial Tutor once sighed: "It's a pity that you are not a man."
Qing Xiaomo smiled proudly: "I am not a man.
I, Qing Xiaomo, cannot enter the court openly, but I can be a hidden wise man and contribute to the dynasty and the country."
Qing Xiaomo's mother was Qing Ya's first wife.
She died of illness shortly after giving birth to Qing Xiaohua.
The relegated Qing Xiaomo and Qing Xiaohua became a thorn in the side of the concubines.
The young Qing Xiaomo was invincible in the house fight and firmly maintained her position as the eldest lady in the Shangshu Mansion.
She studies diligently and is not willing to use her intelligence for jealousy among women.
Looking at the autumn chrysanthemums swaying in the morning mist, the same scene made Qing Xiaomo seem to be back in a dream.
Qing Xiaomo likes Ju.
She squatted in front of a blooming chrysanthemum with joy on her face.
It was a rare species that Ouyang Rui specially brought to her from afar.
"Xiaomo, what is your greatest wish?"
Ouyang Rui leaned against the pillar casually.
Looking at Qing Xiaomo who was looking at the chrysanthemums with joy, only at this moment did he feel that she looked like an ordinary girl.
Only at this time will she show the tenderness that an ordinary girl should have.
Upon hearing this, Qing Xiaomo turned around, raised her head, raised a confident smile, and looked directly at Ouyang Rui.
Eyes bright: "My biggest wish is to become a counselor.
Always stay by your side.

Solve your problems."
"You are a girl and you will always get married."
"Marry" Qing Xiaomo raised her eyebrows and turned around.
Staring at Mo Ju, after a while, he stood up and turned his back to Ouyang Rui: "I.
Never thought about it."
Chapter 2: After talking about getting married, he wanted to ask her the most.
It would be nice to marry him However, he did not dare to ask.
She said she wanted to stay by his side forever, as a counselor.
She told him which women would be beneficial to him, and she was willing to do so much for him.
She has always been a good counselor.
Things developed smoothly according to her plan.
She was his counselor, she was his shield, she was hurt for him.
I have been punished for him since we met.
She had always protected him, and she was willing to do so for him.
But, that's just it.
In front of outsiders, Qing Xiaomo is dignified, virtuous, quiet and elegant.
In front of him, Qing Xiaomo was smart, proud, strong and confident.
"Xiaomo" Ouyang Rui felt his heart aching.
"Xiao Mo."
Like a soft call in a dream, waking up from a trance, Qing Xiaomo turned around and looked at the young emperor standing at the door.
"Rui."
It has been eight years since I have known her.
She stayed with him through the years of forbearance.
Ouyang Rui walked up to Qing Xiaomo and gently held her in his arms: "Just for a while."
"The good thing about the fatuous emperor is that he can hide you here without any scruples.
I will never let them have the chance to hurt you."
Ouyang Rui murmured in Qing Xiaomo's ear.
"I" Qing Xiaomo bit her lip.
"From now on, I will protect you."
Ouyang Rui tightened his arms.
"Thank you for coming back."
"I" wanted to tell him that she was no longer her, but there was no way to tell him.
Lift your hands hanging on your sides and climb onto his back.
Maybe he needs some comfort at this moment.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the palace was bustling with activity, and Qing Xiaomo was able to leave the library.
She was taken by Ouyang Rui as his personal maid.
Just like what Qing Xiaomo saw in her dream.
Following Ouyang Rui, she walked in the corridor filled with palace lanterns and walked towards the palace where the ministers were banquet.
This scene made Qing Xiaomo feel inexplicably familiar.
When she thought about it carefully, this scene had appeared many times in her dreams.
Qing Xiaomo’s memory.
In the main hall, Qing Xiaomo met the Queen Mother for the first time, that graceful and luxurious woman, which overlapped with her memory.
This woman used to be the person Qing Xiaomo had the most contact with in the palace besides Ouyang Rui.
She also gave her a lot of rights and valued her very much.
At this moment, she raised her eyelids and didn't even look at her again, as if she didn't take Qing Xiaomo seriously.

Qing Xiaomo knew how much the Queen Mother hated her, and she hated her so much that she originally thought she was a chess piece that she had firmly grasped, but she didn't expect that she was being played around with by the chess pieces.
This feeling of frustration and betrayal made her want to eat Qing Xiaomo alive.
In the morning, Qing Xiaomo handed Ouyang Rui the evidence that Qing Ya had collected and guarded with her life.
This was the main purpose of her entering the palace.
She successfully completed the task and finally let go of what she had been carrying for more than ten days.
Now that she had successfully completed the task, she no longer had any burden in her heart.
She entered the palace in the name of accompanying the new noble.
She could not leave the palace until the new noble was awarded the title, although she was separated from Zhao Yunruo when she entered the palace.
Qing Xiaomo thought that during this period, she would be honest and avoid the Queen Mother if she could.
Before, she was worried that she would not be able to see Ouyang Rui, but she did not expect that the friendship between Ouyang Rui and Qing Xiaomo would be so deep.
With Ouyang Rui's protection, there should be no problem in spending these few months safely.
Besides, once the evidence of guilt is handed over, it won't be long before the emperor takes action.
The Queen Mother's last support in the court collapsed, and she won't be able to remain arrogant for long.
As for Zhao Yunruo, she shouldn't have to worry about it herself.
She likes Ouyang Rui and wants to survive in the palace.
I believe she can think of the problems she faces and can solve them.
Find a time to meet her.
Now that I am with Ouyang Rui, if I have the chance to help her, I will try my best to help her.
Sometimes, maybe I am more likely to make mistakes just because I like her.
Falling in love with an emperor, is it good or bad?
Just as she was thinking about it, Qing Xiaomo felt an indifferent gaze directed at her.
Raising his eyes, he happened to see Mo Shu'er retracting her gaze.
Seeing Mo Shuer, she couldn't help but think of Ouyang Che and Mo Shaobai.
Qing Xiaomo couldn't help but feel upset.
It was Qing Xiaomo who proposed Ouyang Rui to marry Mo Shuer.
The purpose is of course to stimulate Ouyang Che.
Qing Xiaomo only cares about profit and utilization value when doing things, and has nothing to do with anything else.
She has ruthless determination that suits the battles of this era.
Her intelligence and strategies are all used to strive for the best interests of Ouyang Rui.
Becoming a counselor is an ideal, for the country, for the country, or for that person.
The dream is not over yet, Qing Xiaomo still doesn’t know why Ouyang Rui and Qing Xiaomo broke up later and why their souls returned to Xili.
Qing Xiaomo looked at the ministers, and finally fixed her gaze on Ouyang Che, who was gentle and elegant.
He and Mo Shuer knew each other and fell in love, and they were created by heaven and earth.
The bottom line is that Qing Xiaomo separated the two people who were in love, and now he is using her body.
The evil she has done requires me to pay for the sorrow of time travel and rebirth, Qing Xiaomo thought helplessly.
But from the perspective of fighting, there was nothing wrong with Qing Xiaomo's actions.
Lowering her eyes, Qing Xiaomo didn't know what she was going to do now, what kind of mentality she should have to face all this.
She was not Qing Xiaomo, and she couldn't see only interests and only the monarch Ouyang Rui.
She didn't want to get involved in their fight anymore, and she didn't want to see brothers Ouyang Rui and Ouyang Che fighting each other.
But what can she do?
After the Queen Mother's power collapses, the battle between them will surely become clear.
Wait, Qing Xiaomo suddenly realized that they were fighting over who would be the emperor, and it had nothing to do with her.
She was not Qing Xiaomo, Ouyang Rui's, or Ouyang Che's.
Why was she worried about these things?
, She, Qing Xiaomo, doesn’t care about the great love in the world.

After leaving the palace and paying back the money, the sky is high and the birds can fly.
How difficult is it to find a safe place in the vast world?
Besides, when Ouyang Che and Ouyang Rui start fighting, Ouyang Che probably won't have time to pay attention to a small person who owes him money.
He might not even have to pay back the money and take advantage of the chaos to escape.
Qing Xiaomo thought this and her mood suddenly brightened.
Imagination is always beautiful, but reality is cruel.
She is already trapped in it.
She wants to escape from the fight and be alone.
It is not easy.
How can those people let her go?
After the banquet, there was a song and dance.
Qing Xiaomo was still standing behind Ouyang Rui.
Although it was the first time he saw the graceful woman dancing on the stage, Qing Xiaomo knew that she was the soft concubine Yin Xirou, whom the Queen Mother loved very much. niece.
After Yin Xirou finished her dance, she looked graceful gg3307111:
