Ossi looked at the king in shock, but the sword in his hand had already been thrust out and there was no time to retract it.
Lan Shuang's eyes flashed: "Los, be careful!"
She raised her hand to use magic to stop it, but Ross took a step ahead, seemingly stepping aside but not completely. The sharp tip of the sword pierced the clothes on the shoulder, leaving an immediate red mark. Blood flowed down the sleeve, staining a large area red.
"Los!" Lan Shuang widened her eyes slightly, lifted her skirt and walked down the stairs quickly. When she passed by Osi, she grabbed his wrist and took away the sword.
Osi said in surprise: "Princess, I...ah!"
Lan Shuang also hit him on the arm with her backhand.
Osi covered his arm, and the pain made his already narrow facial features squeezed together tightly.
The king frowned, "Lan Shuang!"
Lan Shuang casually threw the sword to the ground. "What's wrong? Can't I help Los return the sword? According to the laws of our country, those who maliciously hurt others should return the sword in kind. He stabbed Los's arm, so I stabbed him back. It's fair. Even if the Osi family comes, they can't say anything."
"because……"
She stood beside Ross, turned to look at the screaming Ossi, and said coldly but clearly: "The one who teases first is the bitch."
Now the king had nothing to say.
Lan Shuang took out her handkerchief and wiped the blood off Los's wound, but unexpectedly, his wound healed on its own so quickly.
888 promptly explained: "Host, mermaids have a special physique and will heal quickly even if injured, so don't worry."
Lan Shuang: "I actually forgot about this, so this guy didn't do it on purpose, did he?"
888: "Well, I don't know about that~"
Lan Shuang snorted and stuffed the handkerchief into Luo Si's hand: "Wipe it yourself."
Los was a little confused by her sudden cold attitude, but he quickly realized that in his previous life, he had deliberately injured his hand with a rose thorn, and she had the same reaction.
I have stepped on a landmine again.
Los was at a loss for words and stopped making trouble. He took a handkerchief and pressed it on the wound, pretending that it was still bleeding.
Lan Shuang turned to look at Osi and the king. The captain of the guard had already very tactfully told them what had just happened without favoring anyone.
After hearing this, the king's face turned very ugly and he looked at Los coldly. This face was indeed very good, so beautiful that it was hard to tell whether it was male or female. However, apart from his beauty, this person had no good qualities. He had no family background and no connections, so he was the easiest to control.
And Ossi...
Thinking of what Lan Shuang had just said, and Osi's actions, the king's eyes darkened. "Osi, I have granted your family the favor of allowing you to enter the palace and bear swords, but this is only a symbol of honor, not a means of showing off your power, and I certainly do not allow you to hurt anyone in the palace!"
Ossi's arm wasn't seriously injured, just a puncture. His chest heaved with anger, but seeing the king's gloomy expression, he lowered his head and said, "Dear Majesty, please forgive my momentary offense. I was so angry that I lost my mind and acted so rudely."
Osi glared at Los, then looked at Lan Shuang, feeling quite uncomfortable.
"Your Highness, I am your fiancé. Why do you want to break off the engagement with me without my consent?"
Osi is really confused. He is still questioning Lan Shuang at this time. Doesn’t he see that the king’s face is almost as black as the bottom of a pot?
888 was worried about this fool.
Lan Shuang took in the king's changing expression from the corner of her eye and said with a smile, "Viscount Ossi, let me remind you that you were the first to be unfaithful. At the palace dinner a month ago, you were very attentive to my sister in front of me, and later flirted with the daughter of a noble in the garden. Do I need to find witnesses to these things?"
Osi's face changed drastically. He could explain the first one, saying that he admired the Second Princess's talent and had no other intentions, but the second one...
"you……"
He felt guilty and wanted to refute but couldn't, as he was afraid that Lan Shuang really had witnesses.
"Ossi! I'm so disappointed in you!" The king finally found an opportunity to vent his anger. "I've watched you grow up since you were little, and it's because I truly love you that I arranged your marriage to the eldest princess. But your current actions have deviated further and further from being a qualified husband for the king. Therefore, I declare that, effective immediately, your engagement with the eldest princess is canceled. From now on, your marriages are no longer yours. I wish you happiness."
Lan Shuang lowered her eyes and smiled slightly. She had originally told the king about this, but the king was still hesitant because he was afraid of the family power behind Osi. But now that Osi had personally handed over the evidence, how could the king tolerate it?
I really want to thank my teammates for their great help.
Osi was completely panicked. "No, Your Majesty, I was just confused at the time. Please forgive me! Please give me another chance!"
The king waved his hand with disappointment on his face and said, "Please ask Viscount Ossi to leave. Oh, and by the way, Viscount Ossi is not allowed to carry a sword into the palace in the future."
"yes."
The captain of the guards immediately changed his attitude, walked up to Ossi and said in a tough tone: "Viscount Ossi, please leave."
"No... Your Majesty, Princess! Please listen to my explanation!"
Osi stretched his neck to look back in despair. Lan Shuang immediately winked at the guards standing by and said, "It's not convenient for the captain of the personal guard to be alone. Go and help him."
The guards looked at each other, and when the king didn't say anything, they assumed he agreed. "Yes, Your Highness."
A group of people rushed forward and carried Ossi out.
As soon as the noisy people left, the garden became quiet, so quiet that it was a little awkward.
The king stared at Los without saying a word. Los didn't look at him, but just moved closer to Lan Shuang, seeming a little timid.
The king's eyes flashed when he saw this, and he immediately showed a bit of disdain.
Lan Shuang glanced at Los beside her, then raised her eyes to meet the king's gaze, and saw the king's thoughts clearly. "Your Majesty, please consider what I have said to you. Los's hand is still injured, and I want to take him back. Excuse me."
The king nodded, said nothing, and watched them leave.
…
Luo Si and Lan Shuang returned to the bedroom. As soon as they closed the door, Luo Si hugged Lan Shuang tightly from behind and pecked her gently on the back of the neck: "I was wrong, don't be angry, okay?"
What a preemptive move.
Lan Shuang gritted her teeth: "So you are implicitly admitting that you didn't dodge on purpose just now?"
Ross nuzzled against her neck and said flatteringly, "It wasn't intentional. I just had a sudden inspiration and thought this would be more helpful to you."
"But I don't need your help hurting yourself!"
Lan Shuang wanted to pull his hand away, but Los had anticipated this and put more strength on his hand, making it impossible for her to break free.
Lan Shuang: “…”
Why does it feel like this mermaid is getting smarter?
