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

By the way, help them get to know the people around them.

But strangely, the two little guys didn't dare to get close to Xuan Heng.

Bian Zhao was holding the two little ones in his arms, one on each side, and was so happy that he didn't want to let go. He had taken some time to come and see Lan Ning, and he didn't expect to give him such a big surprise. However, when he learned that his daughter's blood could make animals grow into humans, he was still scared.

"I came here today because I have something to tell you." Bian Zhao's expression and tone were equally heavy.

Ever since the last incident at Rui Terrace, the criticism against Furou has resurfaced in the court. Many people feel that this is a warning from the Beast God that they cannot let Furou become the empress.

So the group of people quarreled for a few days, and at today's morning meeting, Heng Yue proposed that Lan Ning go to court to listen to government affairs.

"Attending court to attend government affairs?" When Lan Ning heard Heng Yue bring it up, he already had some thoughts in his mind. This might be Fu Rou's idea?

Bian Zhao sighed, "They think that now that you are in good health and are the only princess with heterochromia, you should attend court earlier to learn and share the empress's worries."

Xuan Heng sat next to Lan Ning, and he calmly poured tea for Lan Ning from beginning to end.

"Okay!" Lan Ning agreed readily. She had originally planned to wait for Xuan Mo's favor to grow before proposing to go to court to listen to government affairs. Unexpectedly, Fu Rou directly handed her a pillow.

How could Bian Zhao be willing to let his daughter go to the court to experience the flashing of swords and the fight between swords? Once she went there, it would mean that Lan Ning would be exposed to danger. Not to mention those people who were eyeing Wanjing's decline, the group of people in Wanjing who supported Furou would be enough to make Lan Ning suffer.

And it’s almost time for all the nations to pay homage to the gods...

Bian Zhao paused, and at this moment he seemed to have discovered the plan of the person behind this matter.

"When the countries come to pay homage, it is also the time for them to propose marriage." His face looked very bad when he said this.

Invitation to marriage.

This was the promise made by Wan Jing Kingdom to its vassal small countries when it was founded. The promise was that there was no need for Princess Wan Jing's consent. As long as the vassal countries mentioned it, they would definitely become the princess's husband.

Bian Zhao has been dealing with those small countries for many years, and he knows their strengths and weaknesses very well. How can those ugly guys be worthy of his daughter?

It just so happened that Furou was under house arrest at this time, and it was estimated that she would not come out at that time, so only Lan Ning would be left.

"No." Bian Zhao was a little anxious. "They have a very good plan. We can't agree to it."

After listening to Xiaoliu's explanation, Lan Ning roughly understood the seriousness of the matter.

The treaty between several countries is useless no matter how much the parties involved resist, unless she can make the other party look down on her or destroy their country overnight.

This is of course impossible.

"There is no choice now." Lan Ning did not find this matter difficult. What she cared about was not the person from which country could become her husband, but her own revenge plan.

Xuan Heng smiled and said, "Yes, if you don't want to go, we don't have to go."

No one can force him to do anything, and naturally no one can force the people he protects to do anything.

Lan Ning looked at him, meeting his gentle golden eyes, she smiled and shook her head, "She has given me the opportunity, why can't I go?"

If Lan Ning didn't attend the court, how could he sideline Fu Rou and the Empress and seize power and the throne himself?

Lan Ning continued, "They may not give up if I refuse, but maybe I can change the status quo if I go. As for the marriage proposal... we'll just have to deal with it as it comes."

There is no need to think too much about things that are still early, just take control of the things at hand first.

Bian Zhao couldn't persuade Lan Ning, so he came out of the palace to persuade her. He didn't expect Lan Ning to be so determined, and Xuan Heng didn't even intend to persuade her.

He couldn't help but look at Xuan Heng. The other party had already picked up the calligraphy that Lan Ning practiced today and was looking at it carefully. How could he still have time to pay attention to him?

"You make your own decision." Bian Zhao couldn't persuade him, so he had to go back and think of a way to protect him in the court.

Lan Ning, who had seen him off, was thinking about how to sleep tonight with her two cubs, while Xuan Heng stood beside her with a meaningful look on his face.

"You want them to sleep with you?" When Xuan Heng said this, his voice was unnatural and a little sour.

Lan Ning looked at the two little cubs hugging her arms tightly. In fact, she also liked to sleep alone, but the two little guys refused. They said they were afraid that Lan Ning would disappear after they fell asleep.

Xuan Heng picked up the two little ones, one on the left and one on the right, and threw them to the puppet maids. No matter how they struggled, he remained unmoved and said, "Take them to rest."

Of course, the silly puppet palace maid first obeyed her master's orders and quickly took them away in the Narcissus Pavilion.

Meanwhile, Lan Ning was still immersed in the excitement of his feelings going up and down.

"Your Majesty?" Lan Ning looked at Xuan Heng's face quietly, "What's wrong with you?"

When the favorability towards the capture character reaches 70, the system will open a separate details page for Lan Ning, which can record the usual fluctuations in the favorability towards the capture character.

Lan Ning now felt that Xuan Heng seemed to be in a bad mood.

Because of those two clingy little guys.

Xuan Heng held her in his arms. The coldness from his body made the delicate girl in his arms shiver. When he noticed it, he wanted to let go of Lan Ning, but the latter put her arms around his waist.

"I just take care of them because they are young. I don't have any other intentions." Lan Ning buried his head in his arms and said sullenly.

She liked pretty and cute little guys, and they were very obedient in front of her, which reminded her of her unhappy childhood. She didn't want these two little guys to become puppets enslaved by others, so she was very indulgent to them.

She also didn't expect that Xuan Heng would be jealous because the two little guys slept with her.

"That won't work either." Xuan Heng refused. He had never held Lan Ning to sleep, so how could he let others do that?

Lan Ning nuzzled into his arms and said, "Okay then."

She felt the icy temperature of Xuan Heng's body, and suddenly remembered that this man's true form was a black python, a very beautiful big snake.

Now it is late autumn, when most snakes hibernate. Only the brave orcs like them can still move around outside, but they still feel too cold that others cannot bear.

Although Lan Ning has made great progress in his cultivation during this period, he is still far behind Xuan Heng, and cannot fully adapt to Xuan Heng's body temperature for a while.

She sneezed softly, finally bringing Xuan Heng back from his distraction.

"Sorry." Xuan Heng blamed himself. Lan Ning's embrace was so comfortable that he forgot how cold he was and almost frostbitten his kitten.

Lan Ning shook her head. She raised her flushed face and looked at Xuan Heng's worried expression. "It's okay. I like holding you."

Xuan Heng carried her back to the room and settled her down, then told the puppet maid to light the floor heating. After a while, the coldness on Lan Ning's body finally dissipated.

"Your Highness, can't you stay in a hot place longer?" Lan Ning was wrapped in a thick quilt, holding a cup of hot tea in her hands, which Xuan Heng had handed to her.

Her inner elixir was damaged and she couldn't use her internal strength to resist the cold, so she had to use these external objects. This actually better demonstrated Xuan Heng's care for her.
