Since learning that Shui Qingqing was going to officially marry Mei Zijin, Nameless fell into deep pain.

But he knew in his heart that the person Shui Qingqing had always liked in his heart was Mei Zijin, even if he had the same face as him, she still liked him......

Endless pain and emptiness welled up in my heart, leaving Nameless like a wounded beast trapped in a cage, with no way out, licking my sorrow alone......

These days, he wanted to see her, but he didn't dare to face her, so he could only use wine every day to numb himself.

It wasn't until Fang Cai thought of his plan for two days later that he suddenly had the courage to see her one last time.

Seeing him go straight out, Liu Yin caught up without thinking about it, and asked worriedly, "Childe, it's so late, where are you going?"

Nameless's eyes were full of blood, his mind was dizzy, and his voice was filled with deep despair.

"I want to see her...... The last side! ”

Hearing this, Liu Yin's face became more and more anxious, and she couldn't care about anything anymore, so she stopped her waist from behind and hugged Nameless.

Of course she knew who he was going to meet, and she was even more afraid to hear what he said for the last time!

"Don't you go...... It's too dangerous, the people who have been guarding Li You by her side, don't you go to the net......"

Nameless feet do not stop, continue to walk forward with difficulty.

"She's getting married, and the person she likes is your big brother...... What else do you want to see her for? Are you going to take her away, are you really going to elope with her? What about me, what am I going to do......"

Liu Yin's heart-wrenching cry slashed through the nameless heart like a knife, which made him feel painful, but it also made him sober for a moment.

He turned around with his feet, looked at Liu Yin with tears on his face, hesitated for a moment, and finally reached out to touch her cheek with trembling, and said with difficulty: "You let me see her for the last time...... When I come back, I'll marry you—I promise you! ”

Liu Yin's whole body trembled, her desperate eyes lit up with a moving light because of the nameless words, tears also poured out again because of joy, and her voice was so excited that she trembled: "Really? Childe is really willing to marry me...... I will definitely take good care of my son, never leave my son for the rest of my life, and be with my son for the rest of my life......"

Nameless's heart hurt so much that he was numb, and the corners of his mouth barely pulled out a bitter smile and said: "Fool, in this world, you are the only one who guards me, an abandoned ominous person, and is unwilling to leave...... I killed your parents and your brother, and you don't hate me? ”

Even if he knew that Nameless was not willing to marry him because he loved him, but at this moment, Liu Yin's heart was full of happiness and satisfaction, and she couldn't help but hug Nameless again, and said in a trembling voice: "No, I don't hate Gongzi...... Because from childhood to adulthood, my son is our family, and my parents and elder brother are willing to sacrifice for their families...... Although our home has been destroyed now, I am willing to build another home with my son, a happy and complete home......"

The nameless lost and sad heart, because of Liu Yin's warm words, finally felt a trace of warmth again.

He smiled sadly and said, "Okay, I promise you, when we finish the matter of the eldest brother, we will go back to Liujiazhuang and live the most ordinary people's life."

After that, Nameless let go of Liu Yin's hand and said, "You wait for me at home, I'll go back."

Although Liu Yin was worried about him, she also knew his character and knew that she couldn't stop him, so she had to tell him to be careful......

The nameless light car came to the outside of Baifu again, looking at the high courtyard wall in front of him, his heart was sour.

He hid in the shadows and looked at the shadows around him, but what surprised him was that the secret guards of the East Palace, who had been guarding here all the time, did not have any today, and seemed to have evacuated from here.

It turned out that after Li You inadvertently learned all the truth from Aunt Jin's mouth, Li You had already thought of a way to deal with Mei Zijin and Shui Qingqing, and even a plan to capture the nameless, so the secret guards guarding the White Mansion no longer needed to stay here, they were all withdrawn.

Nameless didn't think too much about it, jumped over the high wall, and walked towards the familiar main courtyard.

At that time, it was getting late, and the people in the entire Baifu had almost stopped, and there was silence everywhere.

The nameless familiar person entered the main courtyard, and saw that the lights were still on in the main room where Shui Qingqing lived, and his familiar figure was reflected on the closed window paper.

His heart was suffocated, obviously he had been in her room many times, but at this time, Nameless's feet seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and every step was extremely heavy.

It seems that he has been walking for a long time, and when Nameless finally came to the door, thinking of Liu Yin's words, he raised his hand to knock on the door but hung down weakly-

Yes, the person she likes is Mei Zijin, and she always has been.

Now that he already knows her intentions, and she is about to marry Mei Zijin as she wishes, why should he not give up? Could it be that if she showed her heart, she would change her mind and go with him?

Nameless couldn't help but remember that when she was kicked out of the Hou Mansion before, he had said that he would take her and Yun'er to leave the capital during the Lantern Festival.

At that time, he was thinking that if she was willing to go with him, he would take her away and never come back......

Unexpectedly, she agreed to come down and was willing to go with him.

But later, everything changed, and overnight, she became the concubine of the Bai family, the county lord, and even had a marriage contract with his master, the third prince Li You......

At that time, Nameless thought that he would never have anything to do with her in this life, because she had changed her identity, from a lonely and helpless foreign girl to a high-ranking and noble county lord, and she would soon become the third princess, and she would no longer need his help.

And he is still the ominous person who lives in the shadows and can't see the light, and there is no possibility between him and her.

However, just when he cut off his mind and only thought about forgetting revenge and leaving the capital, Li You sent him to her side as a guard, and he came to her side again, and he was closer to her......

Nameless first paid attention to Shui Qingqing because of her mother-son friendship with Yun'er, and Nameless was the person who lacked the warmth of maternal love the most, so when she saw that Shui Qingqing could do anything for Yun'er, he was very moved and envious, he used her as a pawn to deal with Mei Zijin, but in the end he couldn't help but help her who was helpless......

And in the subsequent contact again and again, his long-closed heart couldn't help but open for her, and quietly put her into the bottom of his heart, every time he saw her grief and helplessness, he couldn't help but want to protect her, and even thought about giving up hatred for her and leaving with her......

Scenes from the past appeared in front of him, and the sourness and bitterness in the nameless heart were overflowing, and his eyes were red.

The next moment, he clenched his fists and was about to turn around and leave, but the door opened with a 'squeak', Xiaoxi came out with a copper basin, and was startled when he saw the figure at the door, and when he saw that the person who came was nameless, he stammered happily: "Nameless...... Nameless brother, you're here?! ”

After that, without waiting for the nameless to reply, he was already trembling at the joy in the room: "Miss, the nameless brother is here!"

Before, Shui Qingqing was worried that Xiaoxi couldn't contact Nameless, afraid that he would fall for Li You on the wedding day, but now seeing him suddenly appear at the door, he was also like Xiaoxi, overjoyed, and hurriedly welcomed him into the house.

Nameless stood stunned for a moment, and finally stepped into the house with Shui Qingqing.

This is the first meeting between the two since Tongguguan said goodbye half a year ago, and Nameless is obviously a lot haggard.

Shui Qingqing was so happy to see Nameless at this time, and the big stone in her heart also fell heavily, and said happily: "Nameless, you are really in the capital, I was thinking about finding you."

Nameless's expression had returned to his usual calm and composure, and he said indifferently: "Is there something wrong with the county lord looking for me?"

Shui Qingqing was slightly stunned by the nameless and straightforward question, and she also keenly felt that when she saw Nameless again after half a year, his whole person felt different.

She hesitated: "After coming back from Tonggu Pass, are you going back to the capital—have you been avenging Li You for Brother Liu?"

Nameless responded softly and unabashedly, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Liu's revenge must be avenged."

Hearing his firm answer, Shui Qingqing's heart sank, and after thinking for a while, she said with difficulty: "Two days later, Li You will leave the palace to come to the Hou Mansion for a banquet, do you want to take this opportunity to attack him?"

Nameless raised his eyes and looked at her fixedly, "Is the county lord afraid that we will disturb your marriage with Hou Ye?" ”

Seeing that he misunderstood, Shui Qingqing said in a panic: "No, I didn't mean that, I was afraid that you would fall for Li You...... You also know that Li You's methods are very powerful, he has always refused to give up on you, what you can think of, he will definitely think of it, and he will definitely ...... then."

"The county lord is too worried!"

Interrupting Shui Qingqing's words, he said namelessly: "I came today to tell the county lord that two days later, the county lord and I will not come to the door to congratulate the county lord in person." And also...... Liu Yin and I are also ready to get married! ”

As soon as these words came out, not only Shui Qingqing was stunned, but Xiaoxi on the side was even more shocked, and her little face turned pale.

After a while, Shui Qingqing, who came back to her senses, was happy for Wuming, but she was also worried about Xiaoxi, and was looking at her uneasily, Xiaoxi had red eyes and whispered: "...... I'll go down and make tea. ”

With that, he left the house with red eyes and ran away......

After Xiaoxi went down, Shui Qingqing smiled at Nameless: "It's really great news." Liu Yin is a good girl, and she is also very affectionate to you, you will definitely be happy in the future. In this way, Brother Liu and your adoptive parents can rest in peace in the heavenly spirits. ”

After listening to Shui Qingqing's words, the nameless eyes were deep, there was no joy in his expression, and there was a faint sadness all over his body.

Shui Qingqing asked him again, "Where do you live now, and is your marriage date with Liu Yin set?" When the time comes, I'll take Yun'er to drink your wine,"

Nameless said: "Our marriage is not as grand as the scenery of the county lord and the marquis, and we don't plan to invite guests to a banquet, so we don't have to work for the county lord."

Listening to Nameless's obviously alienated words, Shui Qingqing's heart froze slightly.

After a while, she looked at the nameless gray eyes, and said movingly: "You and Liu Yin are my benefactors, you have saved my life, and Liu Yin has raised Yun'er for me, such a great kindness, I can't pay it off in my life, how can I not go to such a happy thing as you get married?!"

At this moment, the word marriage was heard in Nameless's ears, both with ridicule and pain, and he didn't want to mention it at all, so he changed the topic and said: "Does the county lord know when we first met?"

Hearing Nameless mention of the acquaintance between the two in the past, Shui Qingqing was deeply touched in her heart, and said movingly: "Of course I know, it is in the Tingsheng Courtyard of the Hou Mansion...... I remember that night it snowed a lot, and Xiaoxi and I saw your back in the Lake Pavilion, and then you fled to the house where I lived at the time, and threatened me to use you as a pawn. At the time, I was really scared – but no one could have imagined that we would end up being friends. ”

Speaking of the back, even Shui Qingqing herself felt that she couldn't cry or laugh.

Nameless's heart was mixed, and Shui Qingqing's last sentence of 'friend' shocked his heart, and the whole person seemed to be enlightened, and he suddenly became clear.

Yes, in this life, if you can't have her, it's good to be her friend.

He comforted himself in his heart that friendship lasts as long as love.

Moreover, since she already has a loved one in her heart, why should he disturb and disturb her, let her go, and continue to care for and protect her like a friend......

Nameless paralysis comforted himself, at least at this moment, his heart was relieved a lot, and the chest that felt suffocated was finally relieved by half a minute, and he came through his breath again.

The next moment, he spoke out to deny Shui Qingqing's words, and said in a deep voice: "The encounter in the Hou Mansion is not the first time we have met, and even the time when Li You's carriage at the city gate hit you is not our first acquaintance."

After being mentioned by Nameless, Shui Qingqing remembered that the first person she met in Beijing was Nameless.

At that time, he was on an errand beside Li You, and when he saw the carriage hit someone, he immediately got down from the carriage and helped her up......

However, Nameless said that it was not their first acquaintance, and Shui Qingqing couldn't help but be curious.

She thought for a moment and hesitated, "Could it be that we met when we were in the Western Desert?"

Nameless raised his lips and smiled bitterly: "For so long, you have never asked me why I know about you and Yun'er, or even your affairs in Wangjiazhuang."

Hearing this, Shui Qingqing was stunned.

Yes, Nameless had been by her side for so long, even if she later learned that he was a masked assassin, she didn't ask him why she knew so much about her secret past in the Western Desert.

Perhaps in Shui Qingqing's subconscious, she didn't want to recall everything in Ximo and Wangjiazhuang. Naturally, I didn't want to hear him say it again from the nameless mouth.

But now, she has found her child, and is about to marry Mei Zijin, and even the gold medal for exoneration is begged for Mei Zijin and the Hou Mansion, and there is nothing to worry about. This painful experience seemed to have long since left her, completely buried in the heavy sand by time, and it would no longer make her afraid and afraid.

Therefore, now she is much calmer and asks: "You don't say that I have forgotten, how do you know about what I did in the West Desert?"

Nameless glanced at her deeply, and said slowly: "On the day you had an accident in Wangjiazhuang, I happened to pass by there and saw your ......."

Speaking of this, Nameless hid the words that saved her again, he didn't want her to know that he had saved her life by doing something on the bamboo cage that day, and he didn't want to burden her heart anymore.

After listening to the nameless words, Shui Qingqing came to her senses, and also understood why he knew about his own affairs, because on the day of her accident, she was tied up by the Wang family and paraded in the street, and finally she was immersed in a pig cage, and the entire Wang family was talking about her, so he also knew about his own affairs......

Shui Qingqing smiled bitterly and darkly, and said, "I didn't expect my ugly things to be known to you......"

"I can't blame you." Nameless said softly: "It's the Wang family who is too ruthless and unrighteous, you shouldn't have been treated so unfairly......"

As he chatted, the window paper was unconsciously dyed with the thin light of the morning light, and Nameless stood up and said softly: "I'm leaving, take care of the county lord!"

Shui Qingqing got up to send him to the door, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly called him, "Nameless, I have something to give back to you!" ”

Nameless folded his feet and turned to look at her, looking at her suspiciously.

Shui Qingqing entered the room, took out a small cloth handkerchief, hesitated for a moment and handed it to the nameless one, and said softly: "This is the thing that fell in the house when you were seriously injured and had a high fever that day, and I will help you put it ......away."

For unknown reasons, he took the cloth handkerchief, and when he opened it and saw what was inside, his whole body trembled violently, and his face turned pale.

That night, Nameless left the Hou Mansion and brought back his severed finger, but later passed out in a coma due to serious injuries and high fever, and since then, he has never seen his severed finger again.

He once thought that the severed finger was lost elsewhere and would never be seen again, but he didn't expect to be picked up by Shui Qingqing.

With embarrassment and grief in his heart, Nameless clenched the severed finger in his hand and said coldly: "Thank you for helping me keep it."

Then he turned and walked out.

Shui Qingqing caught up with him again and said, "What are you going to do with it?" Are you really unwilling to let go of your hatred for the Hou Mansion? ”

Nameless continued to walk forward, Shui Qingqing followed him and said: "If you take Liu Yin back to the Hou Mansion to see the old lady, the old lady will see you as her own son, I don't know how happy and happy she will be......

"I don't need her to be happy, I have nothing to do with her......"

"We don't know how much helplessness there was in the events of that year, but as a mother, I believe that the old lady doesn't really want to abandon you, let alone dislike you...... If there is no mother who will dislike her children, and every child is the greatest concern of the mother in her life, can't you forgive the old lady? ”

Shui Qingqing caught up with him, stopped in front of Nameless, and panted: "Nameless, I will give it back to you, not to let you watch it and remember hatred, but I hope you can let go of it and let go of hatred."

After that, Shui Qingqing took the hoe from under the flower stand, dug a small pit next to a withered and withered phoenix bush, turned back to the nameless who was standing coldly and said: "Nameless, let's bury it here - bury the hatred and let it bloom into a hopeful flower." I hope you will let go of your hatred and live a truly happy and happy life with Liu Yin, so that for you and Liu Yin, it is the real relief. ”

Nameless's eyes flickered slightly, but his body did not move, and he stood motionless with the silk handkerchief in his hand.

Xiaoxi came out of the next room at some point, and whispered to Nameless with red eyes: "Nameless brother, you just listen to Miss...... Live a happy life with Sister Liu, and don't remember unhappy things...... Then we will all be truly happy for you. ”

Nameless looked coldly at the small pit in front of him, the hatred for Hou Mansion over the years reappeared in his heart, strange and familiar, but what was finally fixed in his heart was the old lady Hou blocking the sword for him, grief-stricken.

In fact, that night, he broke into the Hou Mansion and showed his true face in front of the old lady, and the hatred in Nameless's heart had been let go a lot.

Later, the old lady blocked the sword for him, and when he heard the old lady's confession, he also believed that his mother had a hard time leaving him back then......

After returning to the capital, the old lady has been secretly sending people to look for him, and he knows it, but he has been avoiding it.

He was like a poor child who had been wandering for too long, wanting to go home and being afraid, afraid that he would be gone for too long and that he would no longer be a stranger to home......

The hand holding the silk handkerchief trembled slightly, and the moment before the tears flowed, Nameless finally gritted his teeth and raised his hand, and threw the severed finger wrapped in the silk handkerchief, the severed finger that he had cut off with his own hands, and cast it into the small pit that Shui Qingqing dug for him, and turned to leave!

Seeing Nameless throwing down the silk handkerchief, Shui Qingqing's heart suddenly relaxed, and her heart was even more excited and happy, and she smiled at the nameless departing figure: "Nameless, remember to come here next year to see the flowers!"

The nameless figure froze slightly, and finally disappeared into the brighter and brighter morning light!

After leaving without a name, Shui Qingqing and Xiaoxi sprinkled the seeds of anchovy flowers in the small pit and covered the soil.

When Xiaoxi was helping Shui Qingqing fill in the soil, her tears fell into the pit like beads of broken threads.

Shui Qingqing looked at her heartbrokenly, and comforted her softly: "Xiaoxi, a person's life is like this flower and plant going through the four seasons, there is a vibrant spring, a gorgeous summer, and a devastated autumn, but also to survive the cold and frozen winter, there is no smooth sailing and undefeated time." Flowers and plants are like this, life is even more so, there are too many unsatisfactory things, when we can't change it, we must learn to let go - like a nameless big brother let go of hatred. ”

Xiaoxi wiped her tears and nodded, and said softly: "Thank you, Miss, for your teachings, I wrote down ......"

"My husband has also been taught!"

Xiaoxi's voice did not fall, but a cold sentence came out of the way, but the master and servant who were squatting on the ground were startled.

Shui Qingqing looked back in surprise, I don't know when, Mei Zijin had already appeared behind her, looking at her with a smile on her face, and the deep affection in her eyes seemed to be overflowing!

Shui Qingqing stood up and said in surprise: "When did Master Hou come?" Why is there no sound at all? ”

Ignoring her muddy hand, Mei Zijin stepped forward and grabbed her hand, hugged her waist again, lowered his voice and pretended to be annoyed in her ear: "I heard that you talked with Ben Hou's younger brother all night - although he is your brother-in-law, Ben Hou will also be jealous."

Without waiting for Shui Qingqing to come back to his senses, Mei Zijin instructed Sanshi who was following him: "You will do the rest of the work with Xiaoxi."

After that, he pulled Shui Qingqing into the house.

After entering the house, Mei Zijin kept a straight face, Shui Qingqing washed his hands, stepped forward to pour him tea, looked at him so annoyed, smiled in his heart, handed the tea to him on his face, blinked his eyes and joked: "Little uncle, please drink tea!"

The sentence 'little uncle' brought the memories of both of them back to the day they first met in the mourning hall.

On that day, she was a Chongxi lady who wore linen and filial piety and married into the Hou Mansion.

And he is the great marquis who holds the power of the army and is high.

But it was that sight that made a lifelong ......

Mei Zijin didn't take the tea in her hand, looked at her with reluctance in her eyes, and said guiltily: "You ever resented me when I treated you like that day?"

Recalling everything that day, Shui Qingqing's heart was also full of sentimentality, at that time, she never thought that the man she once dared not look up to would soon become her husband and become her favorite man.

She smiled brightly: "Of course I hate you, so you have to compensate me for the rest of my life."

Hearing this, Mei Zijin couldn't help but raise her hand to caress her bright and moving eyes, and said emotionally: "If you do something wrong, you will have to pay the price - Ben Hou is willing to pay you a lifetime of happiness for the wrong things you have done."

Shui Qingqing said shyly: "Aren't these words going to wait until tomorrow to say them, why did Master Hou say it today, so what will you say tomorrow?"

Mei Zijin pinched her blushing face and quipped: "In this case, I will say it every day in the future - who stipulates that it can only be said on the day of marriage?!"

When it came to getting married, Shui Qingqing couldn't help but be surprised: "You are going to get married tomorrow, and you can't meet according to the regulations, why are you here?"

"I miss you - I'm going crazy, I can't help it, I can't help it!"

Mei Zijin hugged her and sat in his arms, rested his head on her shoulder, and said: "I renovated the Shaohua Courtyard, which is closest to Siyi Courtyard, for you and Yun'er to live in, and the courtyard wall between the two courtyards has also been opened, and the two courtyards have been merged into one courtyard, so that our family can live comfortably, big and quiet."

Shui Qingqing was very surprised, she had heard in the Hou Mansion that Shaohua Courtyard was one of the main courtyards, and it was to be kept for Mrs. Hou in the future.

She couldn't help but worry: "You gave me Shaohua Academy, and you will ...... in the future Where will Princess Leyi live when she enters the door in the future? ”

"There are a lot of yards in the Hou Mansion, and she can live wherever she likes - only our yard can't live!"

Shui Qingqing's heart was sweet, and she said softly: "Actually, I miss the small courtyard we live in Zhangcheng - although it is small, it is very warm."

Mei Zijin said movingly: "Where there is you and me, it is the place of home." Therefore, I will definitely give you a warm and comfortable home, and I will not wronged you and your children. ”

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the courtyard gate, but it was the people of the Bai Mansion who were about to enter the courtyard to serve, Shui Qingqing's face turned red, and she hurriedly urged Mei Zijin to leave.

Mei Zijin smiled: "After tonight, you will completely become my person, and in the future, Benhou will not have to climb the wall hard!"

After that, he kissed Shui Qingqing on the mouth, and said affectionately: "You have a good rest, you will be very tired tomorrow, I will come to pick you up early tomorrow morning!"

Shui Qingqing thought of tomorrow's wedding, her heart was pounding with excitement, and she reluctantly sent Mei Zijin away with a red face......

On October 15, the auspicious day of the zodiac, after two years, Mei Zijin, the Marquis of Dingguo, is finally going to marry a wife!
