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

The next morning.

Lan Ning woke up very early. She sat in front of the dressing mirror and let the puppet palace maid dress her up. She looked at herself in the mirror quietly. Even if it slowed down her body's recovery speed, her double-stacked medicine would slowly heal her injuries.

The effect of 'Peach Blossom Face' seems to be better.

Only three months have passed, and the scar has faded by half. With Xuan Heng using all kinds of good things to take care of her, the contours of her facial features have already taken shape. Only the knife wound on her neck is still shocking.

After tidying up, Lan Ning shook her ears. She was wearing the pearl hair necklace given by Xuan Heng today, which was just enough to hold down her long hair that was not difficult to tie up.

Putting on a fur-collared cloak, she stood up and walked out the door. Xuan Heng was already standing outside waiting for her.

"Your Majesty." Lan Ning trotted over, "Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Xuan Heng shook his head, "No." He looked at Lan Ning's outfit today. The skirt and jewelry were all bought by him. He took Lan Ning's hand and squeezed her palm affectionately, "Let's go."

-

Princess Lan Ning went to court to listen to government affairs. The ministers had been arguing about this matter for several days. Today, when she went to court, she saw a girl in a blue skirt standing next to the Regent.

"Greetings to Her Royal Highness Princess Lan Ning." All the court officials stepped forward and saluted.

Lan Ning glanced at them and said, "No need to be polite."

Many people had witnessed the temper of Her Royal Highness the Princess at the Hairpin-stroking Banquet at the Rui Terrace. Moreover, the Regent was by her side today, and everyone could see that he was protecting her. No one dared to offend her, so they quickly left after hearing this.

There were also some people who looked at Lan Ning stealthily.

"Hey, the scars on Her Royal Highness's face have faded a lot. If you look closely, you can still see that she is a beauty. Now that her status has risen, don't you really want to support someone else?"

"Yes, Your Highness Furou is not up to the task. If you have good sense, you should look for the next employer now."

Among the many whispers, there are one or two people trying to steal someone else's girlfriend.

Lan Ning's cat ears moved. She quietly tugged at Xuan Heng's sleeve and asked him in a low voice, "Why didn't you see Father and the others?"

Xuan Heng: "They will come with the Empress later."

The empress refused to punish Furou, and those nobles who had lost their children also had many complaints, so they were naturally not as warm to her as before. This was a good thing for Furou's father, who whispered in the empress's ear all day long just to get a word of forgiveness.

The empress was upset about everything that happened on the terrace.

If it was just an assassination, it would have been fine, but they also blew up the statue of the Beast God, which is the sacred symbol of Wanjing Kingdom. This cannot be forgiven in any way.

She has already given orders to repair the Rui Terrace as quickly as possible, and she will go there in person to pray for forgiveness from the Beast God.

"Let's talk about this later. Let's go to court first." The anxious and exhausted empress slowly stood up and dragged her sick body out of the bedroom.

She walked into the court and immediately saw the girl in blue skirt beside the regent. She sat on the throne amid the greetings of the courtiers and looked at Lan Ning tenderly.

The girl's face had almost healed, her features beginning to show, and it was clear that she would have a good appearance in the future, and she looked somewhat familiar.

The empress thought it was similar to Bian Zhao, so she raised her hand and called, "Lan Ning, come and sit next to the queen mother."

Lan Ning held Xuan Heng's hand tightly. She shook her head and refused, "I can stay here."

The act of drawing a clear line in this way made the empress's thin figure shake. She did not force it, but just straightened her expression and asked the court officials to report on the situation in Wanjing in recent days.

Courtier A: "Recently, the assassins who have infiltrated Mangyong have been gradually arrested. I wonder if the Right Minister has interrogated the mastermind behind the scenes. The date for the marriage proposal from the vassal state is approaching. If the assassinations at home and abroad cannot be quelled by then, I am afraid that it will damage Mangyong's reputation."

Courtier B: "That's right. A few days ago, we counted the number of babies born in Wan Jing this year, and it was half less than last year. If there is no improvement in the long run, it may damage the country's strength."

Courtier C: "Yesterday, the border town reported that the Swamp was hit by a flood and plague. The wife of the Swamp City lied to her subordinates and lied to her superiors, causing nearly a hundred people to die. Many refugees with the plague have fled towards Wanjing. If we don't tighten control, I'm afraid it will endanger the whole Wanjing."

plague?

This was a new word to Lanning.

"Is this paragraph in the original text?" Lan Ning asked.

The perfect Xiaoliu who was on standby everyday answered seriously, "Yes, I just scribbled a few words about it, saying only that Furou found a way to cure the plague."

Lan Ning: "What caused it?"

Perfect Xiaoliu: "The Swamp is hot and humid, and is prone to infection. This time, the incident was caused by a flood, which washed bacteria and viruses from deep in the Swamp to the living area, causing the people in the city to be infected."

Lan Ning took the opportunity to flip through the perfect Xiaoliu's diary. There was not much description about this paragraph, let alone any solution.

"Is there anything in the mall that can cure it?" Lan Ning gave up looking in the original text.

Perfect Xiaoliu: "No. But if your 'sixth sense' skill can be upgraded, you can directly see the virus in the patient's body and find the herbal medicine for treatment based on its source."

Which skill is needed to level up?

Lan Ning hesitated. He didn't know when he could earn the money back after writing the IOU.

She was still calculating in her mind what would be the most cost-effective way to do things, and didn't notice at all that the court officials around her were arguing over the plague, and that some of those who supported Furou were fanning the flames in an attempt to put the blame on her.

"Now that the Swampland has been conquered, if we can't find a cure, it's only a matter of time before it spreads to Wanjing City. Instead of arguing, why don't you come up with a solution?"

"I don't know the current situation of the Swamp Land. What can we do? Why don't we send someone to check out the situation and then discuss what to do next!"

"The best plan now is to quickly send someone of status to suppress the wife of Swamp City. I dare to recommend Her Highness Lan Ning to go. As a princess, Her Highness will surely be able to suppress the wife of Swamp City so that we can get information and discuss countermeasures!"

Lan Ning came back to his senses and looked back at the middle-aged man who had spoken in surprise. He looked like a high-ranking official in his official robe, but why did he speak without thinking?

"I second the proposal!"

There are really people who are not afraid of death and support him.

The last time Lan Ning was so speechless was last time.

Xuan Heng, who was standing beside her, gave them a cold look. The ministers who were speaking immediately trembled like quails, lowered their heads and shrank their bodies, waiting for the empress's reply.

"The mistress of Numa City has always been a bully who only bullies the weak and fears the strong. She has concealed the plague in the city for half a month. I have also sent many people to inquire about the news, but they were detained in the city and could not leave." In such a low-pressure situation, Heng Yue still dared to speak directly.

"If we don't find someone with the status to suppress her and let us enter the Swamp City to treat her, within a month, everyone in the Swamp City will surely die."

Heng Yue bowed respectfully towards Lan Ning and said, "Now only Princess Lan Ning is suitable. I wonder if the princess is willing to go and share the worries of the empress."

As soon as these words were spoken, nearly a hundred pairs of eyes in the court were staring at Lan Ning's movements.

The latter looked at Xuan Heng with a puzzled look on his face, "Didn't you say you came here to learn government affairs? Why are you asking me to die right here?"
