Lan Shuang rushed to the king's bedroom as soon as she received the news. At that time, the queen had already arrived. After all, she lived closer to Lan Shuang, and there were many spies in the palace, so she was the first to arrive. As soon as she arrived, she asked the guards to guard outside and not allow anyone except the doctor to enter or leave at will.
Several old ministers who came with the king were also turned away.
"We want to go in and see how His Majesty is doing. Why are you stopping us outside?"
"What are you doing in there?"
The old ministers were very excited, and when they saw the queen inside, they became even more worried about the king's safety.
But the queen's guards only obeyed the queen's orders. No matter how the old ministers scolded and cursed them or tried to reason with them, they remained unmoved and blocked the door without giving an inch.
"What's the point of making so much noise?"
Lan Shuang got off the carriage and walked side by side with Los. When several old ministers saw her, their eyes lit up as if they had seen a life-saving straw.
"Your Highness the Princess!"
"Your Highness, we wanted to go in and check on His Majesty, but the Queen wouldn't allow it. She only let in doctors she trusted."
"We are really worried."
Several old ministers surrounded Lan Shuang and began to complain.
Lan Shuang raised her hand, her expression calm and composed: "Everyone, please be patient for now. The situation is unclear and we must not panic."
As she spoke, she strode forward and stood at the door. The guard immediately reached out to stop her, "Your Highness, the Queen has ordered that no one is allowed to enter until the King wakes up."
"I can't do it either?" Lan Shuang's eyes became sharp, and there was a strong sense of oppression.
The guards looked at each other and shook their heads: "No."
"Oh, if something happens to His Majesty in there, who among you will be held responsible?"
Lan Shuang asked coldly.
The guards pursed their lips and remained silent. They couldn't win the argument anyway, so they simply resisted passively.
"You two need to understand one thing. Although she is the queen, she is only the successor queen. I am the crown prince appointed by His Majesty. I will be the one who rules this country in the future. How can my words be less effective than those of a successor queen?"
Lan Shuang's words made the guards a little shaken.
"elder sister."
Lan Sisi walked in from outside, her skirt lifted. Seeing several old ministers with white hair and beards, she nodded at them and said, "Your Excellencies are here too."
The old ministers looked at her and saluted respectfully, but their intimacy was very different from the one they showed to Lan Shuang.
Obviously there is a layer of separation.
Lan Sisi didn't notice. She turned her head to look at Lan Shuang at the door. The two sisters met again after many days. When their eyes met, they exchanged signals silently.
Lan Shuang's attitude is already very clear, and Lan Sisi...
She looked away and said to the guard at the door, "Open the door."
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows and glanced at Los beside her. Los narrowed his eyes. It seemed that Lan Sisi did not choose to stand with the queen in the end.
"I'm sorry, Second Princess, this is the Queen's will. Even you are no exception."
The captain of the guards coldly refused.
Lan Sisi frowned, "But His Majesty..."
"nonsense."
Lan Shuang gave Los a look and raised her hand. Los immediately understood what she meant. While the guard was not paying attention, he snatched the sword from his hand and threw it away.
"What do you want to do?!" The head guard was shocked and shouted.
The next moment, in full view of everyone, Lan Shuang raised her hand to catch the hilt of the sword. After making a sword flower, she swung the sharp tip of the sword straight at the captain of the guards and his entourage, and said in a cold voice: "Open the door! Anyone who dares to disobey my orders will be killed!"
"In times of crisis, the Crown Prince can act on behalf of the King. Do you want to test the swiftness of my sword?"
Lan Shuang straightened her arms, raised her sword slightly, and pointed it at the captain of the guards. Her eyes were sharp and fierce, which frightened the captain of the guards.
He had heard people say before that the eldest princess was a completely different person after escaping death, but he didn't believe it at that time. Everyone knew that the eldest princess was the number one soft persimmon in the palace, and anyone could pinch her. How could she change?
But when he faced her today, he realized that he was totally wrong. The eldest princess had not only changed, but was reborn!
At this moment, he clearly felt the murderous intent from Lan Shuang!
He swallowed hard and said, "Princess, please don't embarrass us..."
Lan Shuang didn't waste any time talking to him. She thrust her wrist forward and the tip of the sword touched the button on the captain's collar. Even through the layer of cloth, the captain could vaguely feel the pain.
"Are you still troubled?" Lan Shuang asked softly.
The captain of the guards' hair stood on end, and he immediately raised his hands in surrender, "No, no, no, no—I won't make it difficult for you!"
Lan Shuang sneered and put down the sword.
The chief guard immediately turned around and shouted, "Open the door!"
The guards immediately rushed over to open the door and no longer dared to stop Lan Shuang. This princess really knew how to kill people!
Seeing this, the old ministers behind were immediately relieved and exchanged knowing glances with each other.
Lan Sisi looked at Lan Shuang's cold profile and suddenly realized the gap between herself and Lan Shuang.
This is the man who was born to be a king.
The king's bedroom is divided into two parts, inner and outer parts. Passing through the reception room outside, Lan Shuang rushed straight to the bedroom inside with a sword in hand.
The queen was standing at the end of the bed, looking at the person on the bed with worry, feeling torn between her conscience and her desires.
The doctor was busy examining the king, trying his best to stimulate him to wake up.
"How is His Majesty?"
Lan Shuang's voice suddenly rang out in the room, frightening the queen so much that she shuddered and almost twisted her neck.
She turned around and saw Lan Shuang and a group of people rushing in. Her expression suddenly changed. "Who let you in? Get out! Can't you see the doctors treating the king?"
"I let them in." Lan Shuang still held the sword in her hand. She stabbed the tip of the sword into the carpet in front of her, leaning on the hilt as a crutch, and said coldly: "I am the crown princess of Modor, His Majesty's biological daughter. His Majesty is in trouble, so it is only natural for me to come and visit him. No one can stop me, including you-"
The queen felt her authority was being challenged as never before. She gritted her teeth and said, "So you brought a bunch of people here to cause trouble? Don't you know the king needs to rest and recuperate? What are you thinking?"
Lan Shuang sneered: "I should be the one asking you this. Normally, I wouldn't be so anxious, but..."
She turned to glance at the senior officials behind her and said, "Your Excellencies have just reported the crimes of the Dusilen family to His Majesty. His Majesty was so angry that he fainted. Queen, how can you not arouse suspicion by not allowing anyone to enter the palace at this time?"
The queen clenched her fists immediately: "So you all doubt me?"
Her gaze fell on Lan Sisi behind Lan Shuang, and her mood suddenly became more complicated: "You doubt me too?"
Lan Sisi shook her head: "I didn't, I just came to see my father."
"Really?" The queen snorted, not knowing whether to believe it or not. She turned to Lan Shuang and asked, "Now that we can see that the king is fine, please leave immediately."
