Jiang Jingshu's eyes drooped slightly, and her long and thick eyelashes covered a shadow, so she couldn't see her face clearly.

Her words were calm, as if she had seen through everything.

After Jiang Taigong's meal, he really wanted to accept Peiyuan as a disciple. Peiyuan is a plastic talent and won his favor. Wouldn't it be better if he could marry shu'er as his wife in the future?

Jiang Taigong just wanted to answer. Jiang Jingshu sat opposite and smiled faintly, "Grandpa, we haven't played chess together for a long time. Let's have a game today."

"OK."

Jiang Taigong orders Jiang Bo to set up the chessboard. He holds the white son and Jiang Jingshu holds the black son.

The sunspot fell first. They were silent and began to play chess seriously. They only saw the chessboard in front of them.

As the chess game unfolds, Jiang Jingshu twists the sunspot, thinks slightly, and then falls in a place. The dull sound of chess pieces falling was not loud. Under her plain hands, the situation changed completely.

She is like holding a knife, cutting the thorns forward, every step is killing.

“……”

Jiang Taigong raised his eyes and looked at the person in front of him. The woman was beautiful and had a good look. She was no longer like a child who was ignorant and knew nothing but naughty. Now she exudes brilliance and calmness.

In a short time, she has grown to such a point... It's hard to see through.

"Your way of playing chess has changed a lot. You used to be defensive and play steadily... But now..."

Jiang Taigong frowned when he saw that Jiang Jingshu's chess routine had completely changed.

Now Jiang Jingshu, every son is killing.

Jiang Jingshu looked at the chessboard in front of her. Her face was indifferent. Playing chess was like her character. Once she was timid. Under the guidance of Jiang, she remembered the teachings of three obediences and four virtues. She felt that a woman's gentle nature would be liked by Peiyuan.

But she retreated step by step. What did she get in the end? It's just the wanton bullying of Pei Yuan and Lin Qingqing.

"Guard, can't guard anyone." Jiang Jingshu murmured, twisted up a sunspot and fell heavily on the chessboard.

"It's better to kill all the hostile people. Without threats, we can naturally protect the people we cherish most... Grandpa, don't you think so?"

The corners of her mouth lifted up, showing an indifferent smile, but her voice was cold.

Jiang Taigong always felt that Jiang Jingshu was different. Her innocence decreased and she could no longer see her previous carefree.

"Shu'er..."

"You are guarded by Jiang's house, and the huge Lin's house has become your pillar. What else can threaten you?"

Jiang Taigong is overbearing. He won't let anyone hurt Jiang Jingshu.

Jiang Jingshu will always be the apple of everyone's hand and the most gorgeous woman in the world. She doesn't have to worry about anything at all.

"Yes... What else can threaten me..." Jiang Jingshu murmured, with cold haze in her eyes and bloody memories in her memory. Her heart was like angina pectoris. But now she will bear it all until she pulls all those people to hell.

"Grandpa, have you heard that different ways do not conspire?"

Jiang Jingshu stopped, raised her face to look at Jiang Taigong, and then slowly told the story. "A year ago, Pei Yuan accompanied the prince of Anping to deal with the flood. He was decisive and powerful, so he was deeply valued by the prince."

"The place to deal with the flood is Shuihu town. Relying on the dam to build the town, the flood can kill thousands of people..."

"Pei Yuan is on his way day and night, thinking of countermeasures and preparing to lead the people to resist the flood. On the way to the town, they will pass through the winding mountain road. On the way, they see a woman who goes up the mountain to collect firewood fall to the ground. The woman is pregnant for more than eight months, her amniotic fluid has broken and is about to give birth."

Jiang Jingshu's voice is calm, and her quiet narration can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Jiang Taigong frowned and listened carefully to Jiang Jingshu's words.

"Someone suggested that the woman should be sent to the village. If she is delayed, her life may be in danger. They stopped to wait for Peiyuan's decision. Grandpa, guess what Peiyuan did?"

Jiang Jingshu raised her face, with a smile on her face, and her dark eyes were cold. "He said, don't care about small things. There are thousands of lives hanging in front of the town."

A group of people rode by directly in the dark, leaving the woman behind.

The woman cried with despair all over her face. Her only faith was to save her child... But no one helped her.

"Pei Yuan excellently fulfilled the orders of the prince of Anping, managed the flood, and became a man of high moral integrity in the hearts of all people."

Jiang Taigong listened to Jiang Jingshu's words, and his face became gloomy.

"Pei Yuan has ambition in his heart. What he sees is the supreme power. In the future, he will become a dragon and Phoenix among people..." Jiang Jingshu's words are calm and have no intention of slandering at all, but speak quietly. Two people's roads are different, how can they come together.

What she wants is not high power.

All she wants is a pair all her life

Pei Yuan's mind is too heavy. He plans how to climb up all day. He will use Lin's house, Jiang's house, and even all the people around him to achieve his goal.

"Different ways do not conspire."

"Grandpa, even so, do you still want to take him as a disciple?"

Jiang Jingshu questioned again. Jiang Taigong was violently shaken in his heart. He was silent for a long time. Finally, he tightened his eyebrows and shook his head.

It seems that he hasn't seen through some things. He only sees the surface of Pei Yuan and can't guess his mind. On the contrary, Jiang Jingshu has seen through Peiyuan's inside and outside, and wants to draw a clear line with him and go his other way.

Jiang Jingshu looked at the chessboard and finally dropped a son.

PA, a heavy voice sounded.

Jiang Taigong reacted that he had lost and lost to his granddaughter in chess.

"I lost..."

Jiang Jingshu bent her eyebrows and smiled softly. "My grandfather always said that I was not good at chess. Now I can win this set!"

The previous haze seemed to be swept away. Jiang Jingshu's smile was still bright and looked carefree. What she just said was just casually, not too heavy at all.

Jiang Taigong breathed a sigh of relief. He thought Jiang Jingshu had experienced too many things, which would lead to changes in her mind. It turned out that he was worried too much.

"Cough, shu'er, where did you hear those things? How can you know so clearly?"

"I..."

Jiang Jingshu sorted out the chessboard, picked out the sunspots and put them back in the box. Her action was slow. "After Peiyuan left, I missed him very much. I was worried, so I sent someone to inquire about him. As long as there was news, people would report it to me. Of course they would know."

"I see..." Jiang Taigong nodded.

In fact, no one can know Pei Yuan's whereabouts. She is just a young lady in the inner house. How can she be able to ask people to explore through mountains and rivers.

It happened only after she was blind and married Peiyuan.

One day she was soaking tea in her room. A servant reported that a rickety old man was making trouble outside and wanted to see Lord Pei.

Pei Yuan and Lin Qingqing go out together in the residence. She is the only one who can decide. She wants to see the old woman and want to hear what it is.

The old woman was introduced into the house. When she saw Jiang Jingshu, she rushed up to hurt her.

She cried to let the Pei family compensate for her son's life.

The old woman has been thinking about it for five years. She washes her face with tears all day. As soon as she closes her eyes, she can think of her stillborn son.

She felt that all this was because Pei Yuan was cruel. If Pei Yuan could send someone to send her back to the village that day, he would not let the fetus die in vain.

Day and night torture, so that women are only 30 years old, all seem to be as old as an old man.

Jiang Jingshu was shocked when she heard this. The man as perfect as a jade man should be so cruel.

Jiang Jingshu settled the old woman and told Peiyuan about the matter, hoping that he could make compensation and appease the woman.

Peiyuan coldly warned her that Pei's house is not a place where everyone can enter. Don't take in these dirty people in the future.

She never heard about women again.

After a long time, she asked about it. The servant replied that Peiyuan had solved the matter and gave the woman a sum of silver to send back.

But now I remember, how could Pei Yuan's ruthlessness make the handle fall outside? He solved the woman. In this way, the matter will be hidden forever and will not be known.

"Pei Yuan..."

Jiang Jingshu trembled. The more she understood Peiyuan's character, the more she felt that he was cruel and frightening. How can a person's heart be so cruel!

……

"Taigong, the seventh Prince and childe Ning came to visit." at this time, uncle Jiang came over and said, how could it be so lively today? Dignitaries came one by one.

"Ningluo seven?"

Jiang Jingshu looked so moved that she immediately remembered the man who was as gentle as jade. Ning LUOQI's appearance was perfect and her temperament was indifferent. As long as she saw it, she would never forget it. "How could he visit Jiang's house?"

Jiang Jingshu doesn't know what connection Ning LUOQI has with Jiang Taigong.

Jiang Taigong answered and asked Jiang Bo to lead people to the front hall and make a pot of superior tea.

"Shu'er, it seems that I can't play chess with you today..."

"There will be a chance in the future," Jiang Jingshu smiled. "On the contrary, it's a noble person like the seventh prince. Why do you visit Jiang's house?"

"It's a long story." Jiang Taigong paused and had a aftertaste in his eyes. "When I was an official in the imperial court, I met his highness and taught him for a period of time. He was intelligent and understood many principles at a glance, just like Peiyuan's child..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Taigong frowned. It was obviously Jiang Jingshu's words that left a lump in his heart. When he mentioned Peiyuan, it was not as pure as usual.

"Well, you rest here. I'll meet them for a while!" Jiang Taigong got up and left.

Gu Mingzhu sat alone in the pavilion, touching the vicissitudes of the chessboard.

There were waves on the lake not far away, as if a figure flashed by, which didn't attract anyone's attention.
