Chapter 423
When I went to see Han Zhuo again, Shangguan Pianrou was no longer as nervous and well-dressed as before.

Pianruo is right, the members of Shangguan's family are strong, she shouldn't let others look down on her just because of a rejection or a disappointment.

The surface of Cuiwei Lake is rippling with microwaves. The wind in late autumn blows across the lake, carrying a strong chill. On both sides of the lake, the green leaves become golden, fluttering with the wind, sometimes falling, swirling in the cold wind, leisurely However, it landed on the surface of the lake and flowed with the waves.

Shangguan Pianrou boarded a small boat that was swaying on the shore.

Standing on the prow of the boat was a boatman, dressed in a blue shirt and wearing a hood, his face could not be seen clearly.

After Shangguan Pianrou was seated, the boatman let go of the rope tied to the bollard, supported the long bamboo pole, and slowly rowed the boat towards the center of the lake.

Shangguan Pianrou was sitting in the small cabin, and Han Zhuo was sitting opposite her.

Facing Han Zhuo again, especially after such an embarrassing meeting last time, Shangguan Pianrou said she was not nervous, she must be lying.

She took a deep breath, clenched her hands tightly into fists, hid under the low table, and grabbed the hem of her skirt.

"Sorry, I invited you here so abruptly."

Shangguan Pianrou's clear and pleasant voice was like a mountain lark.

Han Zhuo was not as merciless as last time, he took a sip of the blue tea soup in the thick cup, waiting for Shangguan Pianrou's next words.

"It's just that it's about my second sister's innocence. I really hope that you can help me."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to feel that her words were inappropriate, and immediately changed her words: "Our Shangguan family really hope that you, Mr. Han, can help us."

"Oh? You Shangguan family?"

Han Zhuo put down the teacup in his hand, and looked with great interest at this girl who was still childish but pretended to be mature and calm. The members of the Shangguan family really had their own merits.

Although this fourth lady is young, she is also a transparent person. Just because she is knowledgeable and interesting, she is cuter than most girls.

It's a pity that he will never like her in his life.

"Yes, we are Shangguan."

Han Zhuo picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Shangguan Pianrou.

"Since the girl came here today to ask for something from me, then I won't go around with you. Let me ask you, do you know my rules?"

"rule?"

Shangguan Pianrou seemed a little at a loss.

She never knew that there were any rules for asking him for help.

Thinking about it, she is still young, her parents and sisters are not her turn in dealing with people, and now she is surrounded by only two dog-headed soldiers Shangguan Jingyun and Shangguan Jinghong who have not dealt with the princes and princes in the capital for a long time .

The two of them, one of them traveled all over the world with Master Yixian all the year round, and whenever he had free time, he spent all day in the alchemy room, wishing he could grow up in it.

One didn't go home once for several years, and every time he came back, it was only a few days in a hurry, so he didn't have that much time to deal with those people.

Leaning on these two people, she suddenly felt a little distressed, and she dared to invite Han Zhuo out.

"I...I don't know."

Shangguan Pianrou was a little embarrassed, she lowered her head and kept twisting the hem of the skirt in her hands, wishing she could ruin it.

Han Zhuo didn't expect at all that this girl who was raised in a boudoir all day could understand what it means to be sinister.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to, because he had saved her once, and he had a spring heart without knowing it.

He pushed the thick tea cup in front of Shangguan Pianrou, and said patiently: "My rule is that when there is coming, there must be going."

Where there is coming, there must be going.

These five words seem simple, but when you savor them carefully, you will know the deep meaning.

Shangguan Pianrou is not a fool. Although she hasn't experienced many things, she still understands the basics of the world.

What Han Zhuo meant was equivalent exchange.

There is no free lunch in the world, if she hopes that he can help, then she must pay the corresponding reward.

However, he is the direct son of General Zhen Guo, and he has been accompanied by the prince since he was a child. What he wants is definitely not ordinary jewelry and jade, or antique calligraphy and painting, and spiritual stone weapons.

What's more, as a concubine with three bedrooms in Shangguan's mansion, she has very few things that she can sell.

No wonder Pianruo said before that she only knew one-sided Han Zhuo, not the real him.

It turned out that before he gave her a helping hand, it was really just a little effort, not worth mentioning.

Suddenly, her heart felt a little sour, and those emotions that she had suppressed with great difficulty suddenly rushed out like mushrooms after a spring rain.

Aggrieved?
It seemed that in front of him, she was really easily wronged.

It turns out that the difference between liking and disliking is that he doesn't care about her grievances, but she can unconditionally forgive him for her grievances.

"what do you want?"

At this moment, Shangguan Pianrou realized how naive her thoughts were when she boarded the boat just now.

She thought she was ready, she thought she was completely ready to deal with him calmly.

Unexpectedly, at this time, she was even more nervous and at a loss than when she was at the hot pot restaurant last time.

"Don't be afraid, I'm just negotiating a deal with you. I'm not a poisonous snake or beast, let alone eat you. Why do you get so nervous every time you see me?"

Han Zhuo thinks that his affinity has always been good, and his looks are not intimidating, so why does this little girl look like a mouse meeting a cat every time she sees him?
"But, I'm afraid... I won't be able to meet your request."

Even though there were comings and goings, she couldn't help worrying, would she not be able to fulfill the first request he made to her?
She was afraid of disappointing him, and even more afraid of seeing his disappointed eyes.

"Don't worry, my requirements are different from person to person."

As soon as Han Zhuo's words fell, the boat they were on suddenly started to bump in the water.

"what……"

Shangguan Pianrou couldn't sit still, her body was heavily on one side, and she slammed into the small cabin wall.

Cups of tea and bowls on the table crackled and fell to the ground.

"Be careful."

The boatman made a nervous noise, and the hat on his head fell into the deep lake.

The underwater tide was surging, and countless men in black swam to the bottom of the boat very sensitively. Han Zhuo had grasped his weapon as early as possible. The sword accurately pierced into the eyes of the man in black and pierced through his entire head.

"what……"

There was a scream, and as the man in black fell into the water, bright red blood rippled on the surface of the lake, and even the air was filled with a faint smell of blood.
