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

what? !

Lan Ning's words are full of information.

Without the veil, all the highly skilled people present could see the severity of her injuries. With those eyes and the empress's acknowledgment, no one dared to step forward to stop her, for fear that if they were too heavy-handed, they would accidentally kill the princess who had suddenly appeared.

There were also people who knew the details. They knew that the truth must not be allowed to come to light, so they took the risk and teleported in front of Lan Ning. They used all their strength to strike at her, but they met Xuan Heng who was prepared. He had to change direction and save Fu Rou.

Lan Ning knew that she could not succeed, so she conscientiously played the role of a person with a blood feud. Even when Xuan Heng held her in his arms for protection, she did not forget to glare at Fu Rou who was coughing and crying.

Xuan Heng checked Lan Ning's injuries and made sure he was fine. Then his voice suddenly dropped. "Minister Zuo's palm strike was very powerful. Did he want to kill the young prince?"

The young man who was protecting Furou snorted coldly, "Your Majesty, we must provide evidence for everything."

Xuan Heng: "Bring the evidence up."

They came here today just to cause trouble, and they were well prepared. Lan Ning even went to the mall to buy a bottle of trace-leaving potion, so that he could find an excuse to approach the corpses and fix their remaining resentment.

Dozens of guards in black-scale armor walked into the hall holding vermilion wooden boxes. Xuan Heng asked the eunuchs to bring a few long tables and placed the wooden boxes on the tables in an orderly manner. The guards in black-scale armor opened the wooden boxes one by one, and they found the skeletons of different animals inside.

Lan Ning began to cry when she saw the corpses. Her pair of jewel eyes were filled with sorrow and tears as big as beans rolled down her cheeks. She reached out and tore off the gauze on her neck, revealing the scar that was sewn with needle and thread. The wound was torn by her movements and was now oozing blood, which was particularly creepy with her face.

"These..." Even though it was just a pile of bones, Empress Wan Jing could tell by their breath that the box contained her children, big and small, and each one of them made her heart ache.

Lan Ning choked up when she saw this. "My name was given by Sister Wen Jing. Furou gouged out her eyes and hung her in the dungeon to bleed to death. And Sister Bai Zhi, Brother Chong Ming and the others..." She pointed at the hideous scar on her neck. "I should have died too, but I was lucky enough to escape and be saved."

Her eyes turned and fell on the pale Furou, who was holding her bloody neck and lowering her head, not daring to look at her. "I was protected by them when I grew up, but I could only watch them die in front of me. And you want to step on our flesh and blood to become the empress? Why?"

Her strong hatred resonated with the more than 20 corpses. The long table shook, and wisps of black smoke appeared above the corpses. For a moment, a strong wind blew in from outside the hall, carrying fallen leaves and filling every corner of the hall with black smoke. The whistling sound was accompanied by shrill screams, which made people turn pale.

Lan Ning's words pierced his heart. "I came here today to tell you that I will not let you get what you want. Just because I can't do anything to you now doesn't mean I will never be able to do anything to you. One day, I will avenge them!"

After saying this, Lan Ning seemed to have exhausted all her strength. She fainted without any warning, and the strong wind gradually calmed down as she fainted.

Lan Ning did not actually faint. Her consciousness entered the system space and she observed the subsequent developments with Perfect Xiaoliu.

Because of her big fuss, Furou’s birthday party could not go on.

The descendants of the Wanjing royal family have always been valued by the court officials. Over the years, they have watched the empress become pregnant and give birth to children, hoping that Wanjing will prosper. However, the royal heirs gradually died out, and in the end only Furou grew up. To be honest, many people had doubts in their hearts, but they had no evidence.

Seeing that it was time to appoint a crown prince, everyone thought that the position would belong to Furou, but suddenly a seriously injured princess with heterochromatic eyes appeared. She alone caused strange phenomena in heaven and earth, and said that those royal heirs who died in accidents were tortured to death by Furou.

Because of this incident, the two opposing factions quarreled on the spot. In the view of most court officials, this matter must be investigated thoroughly. They must not allow a person who harmed his brothers and sisters and disregarded Wan Jing's safety to ascend the throne.

Under pressure from the situation, the empress had no choice but to place Fu Rou under house arrest and handed over the investigation to the neutral Right Minister Xuan Mo and the State Guarding General Jing Ye.

As for Lan Ning, Xuan Heng took her back to the Regent's Palace on the grounds that the palace was unsafe.

[Revenge mission progress 5%, congratulations to the host for obtaining 5000 points. ]

"Master, your acting skills are just amazing." Perfect Xiaoliu was almost stunned. After leading so many hosts, Lan Ning was the first one he admired so much.

Lan Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, "How much is Xuan Heng's favorability?"

Perfect Xiaoliu brought up the capture character favorability page, "Xuan Heng's favorability has increased by 10 points, and two new capture targets have been added, with initial favorability of 5 points each."

Lan Ning paused, she looked at the page of possible targets, the newly added avatars on it had already lit up.

[Jing Ye: Favorability 5.]

[Xuan Mo: Favorability 5.]

【Xuan Heng: Favorability 25.】

Lan Ning looked at the few points of favorability that had increased and sighed. "It's not that the heroines are treated differently. I remember that in the original story, all the men around Fu Rou fell in love with her at first sight. I can only increase her by 5 or 10 points. It will take me forever to conquer her."

Perfect Xiaoliu comforted her, "Our main focus is career, and love is secondary. Besides, after comparing the two sides, I think we can conquer this side, the quality is much higher than theirs."

At this point, Lan Ning couldn't help but wonder, "Isn't this a sweet and brainless romance? Aren't all good men the heroine's property? How come it's my turn?"

Perfect Xiaoliu said with a guilty conscience: "Because these targets have some flaws."

defect?

Lanning: "What defect?"

Perfect Xiaoliu: "This is a hidden side quest that you need to discover by yourself. After completing it, you will be rewarded with free attribute points."

Regent's Palace, Narcissus Pavilion.

After being brought back by Xuan Heng that day, Lan Ning slept for a day and a night. After she woke up, she asked Perfect Xiaoliu to increase the speed of her body's recovery.

"The most urgent thing is to improve Xuan Heng's favorability." Lan Ning's goal was clear. "When the time is right, I will go meet the empress and get a chance to attend court."

Although that was what he said, Lan Ning did not have many opportunities to meet Xuan Heng. She heard from the servants in the palace that the empress was ill and Xuan Heng would be in charge of the court. He also found a tutor for Lan Ning and asked her to start learning from the history of Wanjing.

Lan Ning: "Hey, this is a great feeling! It saves me the effort of making up a story!"

She was happy and at ease, but Fu Rou, who was under house arrest in Furong Palace and had her source of information cut off by Xuan Heng, was going crazy.

Furong Palace was full of people sent by Xuan Heng, who were monitoring her all the time. The fact that the empress was ill alone made her extremely anxious. Now she didn't know how the investigation outside was going. When she thought of the woman who messed up all her arrangements, Furou wished she could tear her apart alive.

Furou thought about it and decided to start with the Empress first. "Go and inform the Regent that my mother is ill. As a son, I must be filial. I will go to Fengluan Palace to take care of her."
