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

Are the heirs in trouble?

"What I want is not offspring." Jing Ye felt that his mood improved a lot after he said this.

The first time he saw Lan Ning was in Penglai Palace. He was standing behind the empress at the time. Wolves have a keen sense of smell, and he confirmed Lan Ning's identity almost instantly, so he did not rush over the moment Lan Ning pounced on Fu Rou.

After learning about Lan Ning's story, he also felt that the little princess was very pitiful.

Wolves value friendship and loyalty, and they also appreciate people who value friendship and loyalty.

Besides, Lan Ning was the first woman, other than his mother and women outside his tribe, who didn't find him scary, so if he stayed with her, she would probably treat him well.

Thinking of this, Jing Ye became a little nervous. He raised his head firmly and said, "I want the right to be with her."

Jingye himself didn't expect that this sentence came out so smoothly.

But it was really relaxing. When he thought about the future when he could hold that sweet and soft person in his arms and smell his scent, he wanted to wag his tail happily.

"What about you?" Xuan Heng looked at Xuan Mo again. He felt that this person had the biggest problem at the moment.

Xuan Heng had to admit that Xuan Mo was very good-looking, with delicate and gentle features. He always had a faint smile on his lips, and he exuded the aura of a good person from head to toe.

He had tricked Lan Ning into getting close to him before.

He is also the candidate for husband highly recommended by Bian Zhao's group of nobles.

The more Xuan Heng thought about it, the colder he felt, so severe that Xuan Mo pulled his down coat closer.

"Your Highness, are you afraid that we will surpass your position in His Highness' heart?" Xuan Mo's words were heartbreaking, and he didn't seem to want to give Xuan Heng any face at all.

Xuan Heng looked indifferent. He stared at Xuan Mo for a moment and suddenly smiled, "You seem very confident."

Xuan Mo lowered his eyes and looked at the tea in his hand. Because there was a cold snake nearby, the hot tea had gone cold.

Thinking of the strong smell on Lan Ning just now, Xuan Mo felt that the regent had an extremely bad temper. Last time, he went to torment Lan Ning because the two children were afraid of him. What was the reason this time?

Did he teach Lan Ning how to write? Or was Lan Ning chatting with Jing Ye in a friendly manner?

There should be both.

Xuan Mo smiled, "I don't have that confidence. You are special in His Highness' heart. I have the same idea as the general. I just want a qualification."

He could see that Lan Ning was reserved when interacting with them, and that she trusted Xuan Heng, not to mention that Xuan Heng had saved her life.

With all these factors added up, how can these latecomers compete for the first place?

Xuan Mo didn't even think about competing for the first place. He was born with poor health, and the only advantage he had was his good brain. He liked the tenacity and liveliness in Lan Ning. It didn't matter whether he was the first in her heart or not, as long as he could be with her.

"This is our attitude." Xuan Mo put down the cup that froze his hands. "Does the Regent have anything else to ask?"

Xuan Heng snorted. He knew he couldn't defend himself. "I don't have anything to ask. The rest depends on whether Lan Ning is willing or not."

Her wishes are what matter.

When Lan Ning brought the three little ones back to Narcissus Pavilion, the three men were sitting together discussing recent state affairs.

From what they said today, Lan Ning knew that the empress had not woken up yet, and it seemed that her body was seriously damaged. Even if she used the rewinding pill, she would still need time to recover. Bian Zhao took the initiative to volunteer to take care of the empress, and the affairs of the court fell on them.

As the regent, Xuan Heng was the first to bear the brunt. Without the empress, he was the one who made the decisions on all major affairs in the court.

However, Furou's faction knew that the prince of Diandu Kingdom was about to become Furou's husband, and they were a little too arrogant in handling the matter.

Xuan Mo, who is so good-tempered, couldn't help but frown and sigh when he thought of today's court. "Heng Yue will bring Cai Shang into the city tomorrow. After the court is dismissed, someone will ask us how we are going to receive him."

Xuan Heng served tea to Lan Ning and said indifferently, "Isn't this kind of thing arranged by the Ministry of Rites? Why do they keep them around even for such trivial matters?"

That being said.

"Some people think that the Hair-Turning Banquet cannot be held, so they have to hold another banquet to celebrate and pray for blessings." Xuan Mo reached out and picked up the little guy who was chasing and playing around him. "This is also a welcome ceremony for the Crown Prince of Dian Du Kingdom. He is a person who pays great attention to face."

Xuan Heng looked at his little cat eating pastries tenderly, "Then follow the rules set by the empress for taking in a new nobleman."

Although Furou is not an imperial princess, her current expenses are similar to those of an imperial princess. However, the husband she chooses in the future will not be as lucky as Hengyue.

In Lan Ning's words, it is the difference between a wife and a concubine.

The Crown Prince of Diandu Country is arrogant and conceited. He probably won't allow himself to get less than other men.

And some are making noise.

Lan Ning listened silently. She took the osmanthus cake and fed it to the little one in her arms bit by bit. She was distracted for a moment and was picked up by Xuan Heng and held in his arms. She felt his cold skin against her cat ears.

"When the empress recovers, we can get married." Xuan Heng rubbed the soft touch. He had thought about this for a long time because the empress's health had never been put on the agenda.

He wanted to become Lan Ning's closest person openly.

Xuan Mo reminded, "The covenant within the tribe will not affect the wedding in the future."

These words caused Xuan Heng to look at him coldly. Don't think that he didn't know what Xuan Mo was up to. He wanted him to return to the tribe to sign a contract first, and then give Lan Ning to them?

Xuan Heng held the warmth and softness in his arms, and Xuan Mo's words gave him some good advice.

The beastman's covenant takes three days, and it is different from the intimacy between them now. It is a ceremony that leaves a mark on the soul, and once the seal is made, there will be no betrayal between the two parties.

It’s a pity that Hengyue brought a troublemaker back to the city. I’m afraid the next period of time will be very busy.

"I'll go when I'm free." Xuan Heng said, but he was calculating the time in his mind.

As it got darker, Xuan Heng began to send people away. He accompanied Lan Ning to finish dinner, then carried her to the hot spring to soak for a while. Only when the little face looked sleepy did he carry Lan Ning back to the bedroom.

The kitten in his arms was sleeping peacefully. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but the marks on his face had faded a little.

Xuan Heng was concerned that he had tortured her too harshly last night, so he didn't do anything excessive tonight. He just stared at Lan Ning's increasingly familiar face with a heavy gaze. He recalled many people he had met, but even the Empress and Bian Zhao could not match them completely.

Only...the statue of the beast god in the Temple of the Ritta Terrace.

Some things really become more and more similar once you put yourself in their shoes.

However, Xuan Heng seemed to have discovered something very interesting. He stared at the scar on Lan Ning's face that was enough to disfigure him. He gently touched it with his fingers, feeling the warmth, but in his heart he was wondering what this face would look like after it was fully restored.

By then, the situation should become more complicated.

Early the next morning, Lan Ning was still asleep. She was awakened by the noise outside the house.

"What's wrong?" Lan Ning was so scared that she sat up. She looked around in confusion. It was her room, right? Could there be an earthquake?
