Chapter 216 Belongs to the Night
After seeing Pianruo return home with his own eyes, Shangguan Zhanhai finally let go of the hanging heart.

In the study room, there are only their grandparents and grandchildren.

Shangguan Zhanhai stopped hiding, and said straight to the point: "I was at the court yesterday and told Your Majesty that I wanted to send your father back to the capital to recover from his injuries. Your Majesty only said one sentence before we discuss it. Then I retreated directly, and for the past two days, I haven't been able to eat well or sleep well, and while I'm worried about your safety, I'm also worried about your father's safety."

In just two days, Shangguan Zhanhai began to look old, and there were a few strands of gray in his hair that had never been gray before.

"Grandfather is tired, I think, in a short while, father will be able to return to Beijing in a legitimate way."

Pianruo told Shangguan Zhanhai exactly what she heard in the palace, and Shangguan Zhanhai's brows were full of worry.

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy for your father to come back."

Shangguan Zhanhai said: "Your Majesty has always protected his weaknesses. He did this to Princess Yuehua back then, and now he is even more so to His Royal Highness King Xiang. My grandfather is afraid that King Xiang will make trouble."

"I won't give him a chance to get in the way."

In Pianruo's eyes, a trace of chill flashed across.

Di Tianlin protecting his weaknesses?
He is just a character in her writing, even if all the plots have changed, she is still the creator.

She is more defensive than he is.

Shangguan Zhanhai felt that Shangguan Pianruo seemed to have changed.

But what changed specifically, for a while, he couldn't tell.

"Mother's side..."

Pianruo raised her head and looked at Shangguan Zhanhai.

"Don't worry, apart from our grandparents and grandchildren, only Jingyun who is far away in the border town knows about these things."

Pianruo nodded, "The servants in the mansion must also keep their mouths shut, and anyone who chews their tongue will be severely punished."

"I will arrange these."

Shangguan Zhanhai is not a man of courage. He was able to achieve his current status entirely by relying on his own talent and hard work.

Pianruo knew that he was not a person belonging to the dark, at most he kept some dark guards, just to protect the safety of the Duke's mansion.

He only does what he thinks he can do.

Those activities that hurt people secretly are not suitable for him, and he can't do it either.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Pianruo left the Duke Protector's Mansion. It was almost midnight, and there were already no pedestrians on the street. From a distance, it seems to be integrated with the night.

Even she didn't realize it herself, she seemed to be born to belong to darkness.

From the Huguogong Mansion to the Grand Hyatt Restaurant, one needs to cross three streets, and Pianruo tried to choose hidden places, but she was still being watched.

An unusual aura surged from all directions, surrounding Pianruo.

Pianruo deliberately picked an open place to stop, and the strong wind blew her clothes flying, "I followed all the way, are you tired?"

There is still no moon tonight, and even the stars are much less than last night. You can vaguely see a large swath of dark clouds rolling in the sky. Tomorrow will be another rainy day.

When Pianruo stopped, those people swarmed like sharp swords out of their sheaths. With a strong killing intent, dozens of knives stabbed at the place where Pianruo was.

Pian Ruo condensed the miraculous space, and Bai Lian froze, immobilizing all the sharp knives half-inserted into the space, unable to move.

The plain white hand was raised lightly, without any weapon, it was so soft and soft, as if it was stroking the strings.

The black mist, like a ribbon, wraps everyone around it.

It was a beautiful dream, and black mist began to appear in Pianruo's eyes, gradually engulfing her big black and white eyes.

All the people were immersed in the beautiful dream of shuttling and intertwining, unwilling to wake up.

Qingling's body is dancing like a spirit dancing at night, and the black mist overflowing from her coquettish eyes seems to melt the night.

Without her knowing it, her skin gradually turned pale and cold.

The evil spirit is fully manifested, devouring the hazy starry sky in the darkness.

Those people, sinking in their dreams, their expressions changed from happy to hideous, painful and suffocating.

Death came quietly, and they died in dreams.

Pianruo slowly raised her dark red lips.

It was as if he was admiring the painful appearance of those people before they died.

The almost cruel smile looked extraordinarily pervasive in the dark.

No blood, no blood, no wounds, no howling, not even a little sound.

The twenty people who assassinated her all died in an instant, leaving no one alive.

Moreover, everyone's expression when they die is the same.

Smiling ferocious, painful and happy.

Chilling.

When Pianruo woke up the next day, she found herself in Wenshan Xiangxie.

The lingering mist keeps transpiring, the warm room and the familiar layout make Pianruo's heart suddenly stagnate.

Ming Yeli is back?

She got up from the couch, before she even had time to put on her shoes, she pushed open the door, and at a glance, it was empty.

Ming Yeli did not come back.

Barefoot, Pianruo searched Wenshan Xiangxie back and forth, but she didn't see a single person.

She couldn't remember how she got here.

Pianruo had a splitting headache and plunged into the hot spring pool. The warm spring water was steaming, which relieved her tense emotions a little.

She was trying to recall what happened last night.

Where did those killers go?

Pianruo checked herself, she didn't have any wounds on her body, and she didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere. It can be seen that there was no fight last night, but how did she come here?
I can't figure it out, the more I think about it, the more I feel a headache.

Pianruo shrank herself in the hot spring pool, soaked abruptly for half an hour, and then felt more comfortable, and crawled out of the pool wet.

The sky was gloomy, like a heavy rain at any moment, and the air was so oppressive that it made her feel sick.

When Pianruo arrived at the Grand Hyatt Restaurant, it was already pouring rain. She was wearing a white dress, holding a pure white umbrella with a smoky blue light boat floating on the lake, standing quietly in the rain, watching The lacquered gold signboard at the entrance of the restaurant.

On a rainy day, the restaurant was not as busy as usual, and Dai Mo saw the figure in the rain from a distance, like her own lady.

So she came out holding an umbrella, "Miss, why are you here alone? Hurry up and get warm."

It's already early autumn, with one autumn rain and one cold, although it's not too cold, the temperature in the world after being soaked by rain is always a little bit lower.

Pianruo entered the door, put down the umbrella in her hand, and asked, "Where's Yu Ze?"

Damo replied: "The store is not busy today, I arranged for him to rest, he should be in the room now."

Yu is a deep person, even if he is resting, he only shuts himself in the room and doesn't like to go out, so Dai Mo guessed that he is probably in the room.
