In front of Xuan Mo, he still retained some dignity for himself. He just gently touched Lan Ning's forehead with his finger, and the smile on his face did not diminish. "Very impressive."

Xuan Mo also admitted, "I have taught many people, and your talent is indeed unmatched."

If she could grow up safely, she would definitely be a princess much more outstanding than Furou, and the most qualified heir to Wanjing Kingdom.

After spending just two days with Lan Ning, Xuan Mo had gotten to know the little princess's personality. She was much more hardworking and strong than he had imagined, and she never considered the scars on her body as a shame.

This kind of mentality is worth learning from for many people.

He originally wanted to sit in the Narcissus Pavilion for a while, but unfortunately the regent used his eyes to drive him away, fearing that he would stay and ruin the atmosphere.

The high and mighty Regent can actually be so stingy.

Xuan Mo rarely smiled. He was too lazy to argue with Xuan Heng. He stood up and said goodbye. "Your Highness has finished studying today. I will take my leave first."

He came and left like the wind, and Lan Ning didn't have a chance to ask him to stay.

Xuan Heng was very satisfied with Xuan Mo's attitude of avoiding suspicion. He directly hugged Lan Ning into his arms, held her soft little hand, and lowered his head to rub her soft ears.

"Meow~" On the floor, the beautiful little orange cat was happily grabbing Lan Ning's skirt. When it was tired of playing, it lay down at Xuan Heng's feet to rest. It looked up at its most secure fellow cat and wanted to be held in her arms.

The little orange cat stared at the hem of Lan Ning's skirt, jumped up, hooked its claws on the hem of Lan Ning's skirt and pulled it up with a grunt. After finally climbing into Lan Ning's arms, it found a good position, stretched comfortably, and curled up to sleep.

Xuan Heng stared at the little orange cat, moved his fingers slightly, and woke it up without any hesitation.

Lan Ning, who was watching the whole process, said: "......"

The kitten didn't know what was going on, and naturally didn't know who was disturbing it. After opening its eyes and looking around, it went back to sleep.

Xuan Heng raised his eyebrows. He disturbed his time with Lan Ning and still had the nerve to sleep next to him?

He flicked the kitten awake again.

Lan Ning couldn't help it this time, "What are you doing? Don't you like it?" The cute kitten just wants to sleep! What's wrong with it?

Xuan Heng stared at her, "I only like you, not other cats."

He has been particularly fond of saying this lately.

Lan Ning's cat ears trembled, "I like the prince too."

Seeing her innocent look, Xuan Heng sighed helplessly. He conjured up a book and handed it to Lan Ning, "Have you read all the books I bought for you before?"

Lan Ning nodded, "But Master Xuan said that I should focus on studying at the moment, so I didn't take it out."

When Xuan Mo was mentioned, Xuan Heng snorted, "I have the final say in the Regent Palace. Just flip through it during your break."

Lan Ning pretended not to know Xuan Heng's plan. She obeyed obediently and really nestled in Xuan Heng's arms to read. The cat in his arms fell asleep peacefully and was never disturbed by Xuan Heng again.

But the gaze that fell on her became more and more scorching.

Lan Ning pursed her lips and looked up at Xuan Heng, "Why are you staring at me?"

Xuan Heng smiled and said, "I was just thinking that the things in the books are all boring, so why not put them into practice? Xiaoguai, do you know what you will do when you really like someone?"

Lan Ning paused, then she raised the book in her hand and said frankly: "Visiting temple fairs, boating on the lake, eating together, sleeping together..."

She listed a bunch of them, and Xuan Heng listened with a smile on his face, "Yes, then let's learn this first. Do you want to go shopping today?"

Perfect Xiaoliu: "Master! Brothel! Promise now!"

The voice in his head was giving orders, and Lan Ning quickly spoke to comfort him, "I know, I know."

Lan Ning nodded without changing his expression, only his eyes brightened a little, "I want to! Last time I went to Linlang Market, I didn't even finish shopping! But has the prince's business been completed? Is the street safe?"

She was a good child who listened to her father, and Xuan Heng was happy to see her anxious little look.

Xuan Heng: "With me here, no one dares to hurt you."

Lan Ning nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Then I will follow the good prince and never leave him alone!"

When it comes to coaxing people, Lan Ning is very good at it.

Wanjing City, Linlang Market.

After the assassination incident, Linlang Market returned to its former bustle, but there were also many more soldiers patrolling the city.

People were coming and going on the street. Lan Ning was wearing a light purple glass dress and a pair of white cat ears were very eye-catching. Her beautiful jewel eyes looked around, as if she was very interested in everything.

Xuan Heng followed beside her. His black clothes made her figure even more graceful, making her particularly conspicuous among the crowd.

Jing Ye, who was in charge of this area, saw it from a distance. He was hesitating whether to go up and pay his respects. That day in the temple, he was busy protecting the empress and ignored her. If according to what his mother said, he should have stood firmly by Lan Ning's side.

Fortunately, she is fine.

Jing Ye still stepped forward and saluted, "Meet the Regent, meet His Highness Lan Ning."

He was still wearing silver armor today, with a lifelike wolf head pattern on his chest. Lan Ning heard from Xuan Mo that the only people in Wanjing City who could wear this style of armor were from the wolf clan, and they only obeyed Jing Ye and were loyal to the empress of Wanjing City.

"General?" It was a pleasant surprise to meet Jingye here. "Long time no see."

[Jing Ye's favorability +3, total favorability 28. ]

While she was recuperating in the Regent's Palace, Jing Ye was busy sending his wives back home. After finally finishing his work and returning to the capital, the job of patrolling the city fell on him again.

Linlang Market is some distance away from the Regent's Palace, and he doesn't have the spare time to visit and say hello.

Jing Ye looked at the girl's smile. He felt a little nervous for some reason. "Long time no see."

Xuan Heng stood aside and watched silently. He calmly observed the atmosphere between the two. When he found Jing Ye's cold face uncomfortable, he said, "The city is busy these days, so we won't delay the general."

Jing Ye paused. He glanced at the smiling Lan Ning. He felt a little reluctant, but he still said goodbye to the two of them. "If you two need any help during the parade, you can always come to me."

Xuan Heng smiled wryly, "Of course."

After a few polite words, Xuan Heng took Lan Ning away. There was a rare hint of sourness in his words, "It's okay to be just Xuan Mo, but how come Jing Ye is also obsessed with him."

He tilted his head to look at the excited Lan Ning, "There are more and more flies around Xiaoguai."

Lan Ning: “???” Sometimes this person’s intuition about his love rival is terrifyingly accurate.

Fortunately, Xuan Heng didn't dwell on this matter, but he held Lan Ning's hand even tighter.

He was much taller than Lan Ning, and when he walked, Lan Ning had to jog to keep up with him. Finally, they reached the most prosperous area of ​​Linlang Market. Lan Ning noticed the place with the most people.

"Your Highness! Where is that?" Lan Ning pointed at the golden building with a look of curiosity, but Xuan Heng's expression changed when he saw that place.

Luchunlou is a brothel famous in Wanjing.
