When Lin Wan opened her eyes, she became the infamous Lin family's third wife, A Yuan.
One second she was crazy about Pei Jia Qi Lang, running to Pingkangfang at night and becoming the laughing stock of the whole city;
At the last moment, she had clearly seen the world of cannibalism - the jokes of noble girls, the chess pieces in the hands of her stepmother, and the baggage in her father's eyes that was waiting to be sold or urgently needed to be discarded.
After reviving her life, she will no longer be a obsessed and resentful girl.
When the whole city was talking about whether she should twist her hair and become a sister-in-law, or marry into a poor family,
Ayuan held her sprained ankle and walked step by step towards the cold-faced, taciturn and powerful Duke Wei who was twelve years older than her.
"Concubine, I would like to marry into the Xie family."
The whole hall was in an uproar.
Xie Tingyun married her to silence the public and to cope with the Holy Will.
She married Xie Tingyun to find a roof over her head and live in this majestic Chang'an.
On the wedding night, he held a glass of wine and his eyes were calm:
"Be your princess's wife, stay safe, and don't have any delusions."
She lowered her eyes and responded, hiding all the blood, tears and unwillingness from her previous life in her gentle brows.
From now on——
She learns how to be the head of a family, and navigates every step of the complicated government palace;
She circles around ladies and ladies, weaving her own web in silent places;
She watched him play chess with various forces. Occasionally, with a gentle push of his fingertips, he would make one or two inconspicuous chess moves.
At first, he looked on coldly, thinking that there was an extra decoration in the house.
It wasn't until the palace banquet that a hidden arrow struck her. While talking and laughing, she turned her murderous intention invisible.
In the study room late at night, he was playing chess under the lamp and suddenly raised his eyes:
"Madam, you are taking a dangerous step today."
She refilled the hot tea for him with a light smile:
"It's not dangerous to play chess with the Duke of Guo. How can I enter the game?"
Later, when Pei Zhao was the top prospect in high school, he stopped a driver with red eyes while riding a horse in the street:
"Ayuan, if I had--"
The car curtain did not move, only the woman's calm voice came out:
"Mr. Pei, please call me, Mrs. Xie."
In the car, Xie Tingyun held her slightly cold hand and put a warm black jade chess piece into her palm.
"This game," his voice was low, with a warmth that no one had ever heard before, "you and I win together."

——This time, I will not be a chess piece, I will play the Chang'an chess game with you.
Purpose: Women should be self-reliant. Even if they are stuck in the quagmire, they can still break through the situation with their mind. The best marriage is to meet your opponent in chess, stand side by side, and guard the mountains and rivers together.
