An Jing really hated Dongfang Tianyang's gaze; An Jing felt that his eyes were full of intense plunder, which made her particularly disgusted.
Fortunately, Dongfang Tianyang had many memorials to review and did not stay long in the Quiet Heart Garden. He said just a couple of words to An Jing before leaving.
...
Because her arm was injured, practicing swordplay could worsen the wound, so An Jing temporarily stopped practicing. She spent her days tending to the flowers and plants in the Quiet Heart Garden, making tea, and playing chess.
No matter how pleasant life was, An Jing especially missed her husband and child.
On this day, An Jing was sitting in the courtyard of the Quiet Heart Garden, with a chessboard laid out on the stone table. The black and white pieces were on either side, and An Jing did not want any palace maids or eunuchs to accompany her; she played chess by herself.
Her chess skills were not superb, but playing chess was a good way to pass the time.
