In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, a counselor came to Jingbei Hou Mansion in the north.
She has no name. Don't remember the past. Whoever pays does the work.
Marquis Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment when he saw her for the first time.
She knew what he was looking for - the shadow of a person on her face. But she didn't ask. When you get paid to do things, you don't need to understand the employer's thoughts.
There is a ghost in the house. The chief strategist Lu Yuan stared at her with a smile: "I heard that the girl didn't have the past?" She replied: "The past is not important." He smiled: "That's right. Some of the past is good, so forget it."
That night she had a dream. Fire. A man's back. "I'm sorry." When she woke up, the old scar on her wrist was hurting - a scar from childhood, she didn't know where it came from.
Later she found a name - Shen Zhao. The Shen family's daughter was exterminated three years ago. It is said that he has been asked to behead. She is twenty-two years old. Three years ago, nineteen.
Everyone was lying to her. Xiao Heng said "I don't know him." Lu Yuan said "a dead man". Ah Qi pretended to be mute.
Until Ah Qi spoke.
"Your name is Shen Zhao. Three years ago, Xiao Heng ordered your execution. But he changed his mind and asked me to save you." "Why?" "Because he loves you."
She looked at Xiao Heng. This man who destroyed her entire family, saved her life, and personally erased her memory. "You owe me." "I know." "What can you give me in return?" "My life."
——She didn't leave. She stayed in the North. Not forgiveness, not reconciliation. He has stood firm in his own way and is on an equal footing. "You owe me everything you'll ever owe me."
Intention: There is a third way besides hatred - don't forgive, don't let go, use your own ability to stand firm, and let the person who owes you remember what he owes.
