A sweet story about traveling into the world of beasts, killing the heroine and becoming the next in

This is obviously not the case. Xuan Heng holds 50% of the power of Wanjing Kingdom. He should want to take advantage of Lan Ning's nothingness and seize power and usurp the throne!

As the eldest princess of Wanjing Kingdom, how could she allow a man to sit on the throne?

Even if Lan Ning became a puppet, she would not allow it.

"Listen carefully to what those people are saying about you. Are you still thinking of using the baby in your belly to achieve success overnight?" Yan Xuan taunted her in her ear at the right time, "As long as she is alive, you will never be able to do that."

Furou lowered her eyes. Of course she knew such a simple thing, so she spent a lot of money to prepare a big gift for Lan Ning. This time she would definitely take her life!

-

It was Lan Ning's first time to attend such a large banquet, which was even larger than the one held in Penglai Palace that day. Xuan Heng helped her get off the carriage and she walked onto the Rui Terrace under the gaze of the people.

"Is this Princess Lan Ning? Her face is covered with scars! What a pity!"

"Isn't it? Look at that pair of heterochromatic eyes, they are the eyes of a god's messenger! How could such a thing happen to me? Is God trying to kill me, Wan Jing? I heard that all these things were done by Princess Furou!"

"How can you be the empress of Wanjing Kingdom with such a vicious heart? If she wasn't a princess, she would have been executed long ago!"

The discussions outside the Rui Terrace never stopped, and Lan Ning's sensitive ears heard it all. Her father was so powerful that he had been spreading rumors to the outside world all these days.

Lan Ning walked to their seats and met Fu Rou's eyes as soon as he looked up.

After many days, the once high and mighty Princess had lost a lot of weight, and her pretty face looked haggard, but her dark green eyes were still filled with resentment and anger.

Lan Ning raised her eyebrows slightly. She gently tugged at Xuan Heng's sleeve. When Xuan Heng lowered his head to look at her, she pointed at the big beautiful orange in the fruit bowl beside Xuan Heng and said coquettishly, "I want to eat oranges. You peel them."

Xuan Heng glanced at the oranges on the table. He rubbed Lan Ning's cat ears helplessly and said, "Okay, I'll peel them for you later."

He hadn't spent enough time with Lan Ning for a few days, and he was very kind to her. He picked up the orange and started working on it. After a while, he put the flesh to Lan Ning's mouth and wiped the crumbs from the corner of her mouth.

How many people have seen such a gentle and caring look? The courtiers who were secretly observing almost dropped their jaws to the ground. Xuan Heng, who killed people without blinking an eye and rejected many beautiful wives of Wan Jing, could actually be as gentle as water?

If they hadn't seen him enter and sit down, they would have almost suspected that Xuan Heng had been replaced.

Furou's face looked even worse. She felt that Lan Ning ordered Xuan Heng around on purpose to show her. Could it be that Lan Ning knew that she had once hinted at Xuan Heng?

Yan Xuan, who also saw this scene, was not in a good mood. Her daughter was seriously ill, and she was in a bad mood. She spoke without restraint. She slammed the cup in her hand on the table and said with gritted teeth: "Who are you pretending to be for?"

The two of them were in a bad mood, but Lan Ning was in a good mood. Facing the cold looks of the two people, she took another orange and stuffed it into Xuan Heng's hand, showing him a smile, "One more."

They got along well with each other, and the two people drinking silently across the street looked over at them together, which was a rare occurrence.

Compared to anyone else present, the scars on Lan Ning's face could hardly fail to attract attention. Xuan Mo rarely picked up the wine glass and took two sips. He wanted to seek justice for those royal heirs who died unjustly, but he could not stand the empress's cover-up.

He was respected by everyone in Jing as being impartial and just, but he couldn't even handle such a small matter. He had no face to face Lan Ning, who was so sincere in her feelings for him.

[Ding——Xuan Mo’s favorability +5, total favorability: 15. ]

When this favorability notification popped up, Lan Ning was slightly shocked. Ever since that day when Xuan Mo came to her house and asked her for the detailed reason, she had never seen this gentle Right Minister again. How come she suddenly had a good impression of him again?

Lan Ning could not help but turn her eyes to look among the court officials. At first glance, Xuan Mo, who was wearing a white official uniform among the colorful clothes, was particularly eye-catching. His jade-like face had a blush on it. The drunken handsome man looked particularly good. She could not help but stare at him in amazement.

"What are you looking at?" After peeling the orange, Xuan Heng turned around and saw his little cat staring at another man in a daze. He jealously pulled Lan Ning into his arms and pinched her slender waist with his big hands as a warning.

The pair of vertical golden eyes swept across everyone present, and finally landed on Xuan Mo, "You Shangshu is a famous handsome man in Wanjing, but it's a pity that he has poor health, otherwise he would have been one of Furou's husbands."

Lan Ning came back to her senses with a pain. What did she just hear? Xuan Mo was not in good health?

She couldn't help but look at Xuan Mo again. This time, she saw clearly the dim inner elixir and fragile meridians in his body. It was not fatal, just a little weaker than other orcs.

Otherwise, why didn't Xuan Mo follow Fu Rou? It turned out that he was weak and not in Fu Rou's range of mates. Then, if he was on her strategy list, it would be hers.

[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission, bonus points +1000. ]

Of the three targets that I have met, two have already completed their hidden missions, leaving only Xuan Heng. The reason why he was not chosen by Furou...

"Xuan Heng must have a moody temper!" Lan Ning expressed his guess.

Perfect Xiaoliu: "The master is smart."

[Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden mission, bonus points +1000. ]

Lan Ning said helplessly: "Shouldn't a true heroine overcome these difficulties? Why are you still so picky? It's really embarrassing for the heroine circle."

Perfect Six nodded and said yes, "Who said it wasn't?"

She didn't dwell on this issue too much. After all, there was a jealous man waiting for her to coax him. "I just saw it suddenly. He seemed to be in a bad mood, so I watched him for a while longer."

Xuan Heng snorted lightly. If there was anyone in Wan Jingnei who was worthy of his fear, it was Xuan Mo. He had heard more than once that Bian Zhao tried to win over other nobles and said that they wanted to arrange him to be Lan Ning's husband.

And that face was indeed good-looking, so it didn't matter that Lan Ning was bewitched by it. After all, women always yearn for beautiful things.

"Xiaoguai promised me that she wouldn't mess with other men." Xuan Heng lowered his head and leaned close to the pair of white cat ears and said in a deep voice. His hot breath made Lan Ning's delicate body tremble slightly.

She clutched the hem of her skirt tightly with both hands, and nodded with red cheeks, "I won't."

Xuan Heng liked her well-behaved look the most. He broke the orange and fed it to Lan Ning's lips very attentively as if he was taking care of a child.

This scene made the two people on the opposite side jealous and grit their teeth.

[Xuan Heng's favorability +2, total favorability: 52. ]

After coaxing Xuan Heng, Lan Ning ate her fruit obediently and waited for the hair-stroking banquet to begin. While the empress had not yet arrived, she confirmed the task process with Wanmei Xiaoliu again.

Perfect Xiaoliu: "Later, Furou will go to the terrace to kneel and pray, and then the other wives with newborn babies will follow suit. The empress will touch her hair and the ceremony will be complete."

Lan Ning: "And I just need to project the picture I imagine to everyone present when the ceremony is over. Are you sure it's okay with my current body?"
