The current situation was very unfavorable to them. Du Xilun didn't know how many people the other side had brought with them. At present, they seemed to be evenly matched with them, but what if there was an ambush outside? They had brought less than 3,000 people this time, hoping to catch the king and his men off guard and cooperate with them from both inside and outside.
But if it is delayed, it will do them no good!
Du Xilun's mind was working rapidly, and finally his cold gaze locked on Lan Shuang. She was standing on the edge of the platform and was the best target!
"Catch Lan Shuang first!"
He ordered the soldiers: "Catch her, then we can escape!"
"Yes!" The soldiers moved at the sound and rushed towards Lan Shuang in unison.
Louis only symbolically asked people to stop them. After all, he knew very well how strong Lan Shuang was. It would not be easy for this group of people to kill Lan Shuang!
As the soldiers were about to climb up the platform to capture Lan Shuang, the king anxiously shouted from behind, "What are you looking at? Protect the Queen!"
Ross glanced at him. The king was confused by his look and said angrily, "Don't you know magic? What are you standing there for?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Los jumped off the platform, kicked the soldier in front of him away, and hit the people behind him, and there was immediately a gap in their encirclement.
king:"……"
How come this person doesn't understand what I'm saying?
But the next moment he heard Lan Shuang say, "Protect the king."
Then Lan Shuang tapped her toes and jumped down like a white butterfly.
king:"……"
His heart suddenly rose to his throat and almost jumped out!
Lan Shuang held his sword and moved flexibly among the crowd, causing people to fall down wherever he passed.
Her swordsmanship was extremely exquisite and her speed was so fast that the soldiers were stabbed by her before they could even react. Los also grabbed a sword, broke through the siege and came to Lan Shuang, standing back to back with her.
Lan Shuang noticed it, turned her head to look at Los, and suddenly remembered the back-to-back battle between her and Jiang Han on the boat in her second life.
Unexpectedly, the scene would be repeated one day. Although the time and place were different and their identities had changed, their inner souls remained the same as before.
This feeling was quite wonderful, and even made Lan Shuang a little excited.
Ross seemed to be able to feel her heartbeat even through the thin fabric. He raised the corners of his lips slightly and asked, "Do you want to compete?"
"What are you competing for?" Lan Shuang asked with a smile, kicking away the person who attacked her from the side.
"Let's see who can catch Dusilen first."
"OK."
The two hit it off immediately. While others were killing, they were stretching their muscles.
Each of them had a sword, and they worked in tacit understanding without using any magic, just fighting one move at a time. Du Xilun didn't know that he had become the target of the two men, and he was still hiding behind the soldiers to give orders.
But before long, Du Xilun found that there were fewer and fewer people in front of him, and he began to retreat in panic.
But through a layer of people, he still met Los's gaze. Those emerald eyes, which usually looked indifferent and gentle like the calm spring water, seemed to have set off a raging storm at this moment, and the murderous intent in them was not concealed at all.
Being looked at like this by him was like being stared at by a wolf. Dusilen felt terrified and his whole body stiffened.
"ah!"
Another soldier fell, and Du Xilun heard a chuckle behind him: "Lord Du Xilun, how dare you be distracted at a time like this?"
"Lan Shuang?!" Du Xilun wanted to turn around suddenly, but found that the person in front of him also fell down. Los swept across and kicked down everyone in front of him. Then he raised his hand and caught the long sword steadily. The tip of the sword hit his heart with a "swish".
At the same time, the tip of the sword was pressed against Dusilen's back at the same position.
Du Xilun: "..."
Lan Shuang and Luo Si looked at each other, and Lan Shuang smiled and said, "Alas, it's a draw."
Los's eyebrows softened, and there was a drop of blood from someone unknown under his eye, which just happened to cover his small mole, making him look particularly seductive.
"It's fun when the odds are evenly matched, isn't it?"
Lan Shuang was struck by this smile, and even her heart felt a little numb.
Her eyes were as bright as the moon, and she smiled and said, "Yes."
Du Xilun, who was sandwiched in the middle and held back by two swords: "..."
Why don't you just kill me? Don't be so humiliating.
You held me with swords, and then talked about love in front of a traitor like me. Damn it... No human being would do such a thing!
The king behind him was also stunned. He kept his mouth open for so long that his jaw became sore and he almost drooled.
He quickly put his chin back with his hand and looked at Lan Shuang again in disbelief.
When did his daughter become so powerful?
No one answered him. This question was destined to have no answer because the person who could answer him was already dead.
…
In the end, this premeditated palace coup ended in the disastrous defeat of the queen and Dusilen.
Lan Sisi didn't even plead for mercy. She knew it was useless. In front of so many people, the Queen and Dusilen's crimes were set in stone and could not be undone.
She stood in the crowd, looking at the ruined wedding hall, then at Lan Shuang whose white veil was stained with blood, and tears fell from her eyes.
Lan Shuang seemed to sense something and looked over. When their eyes met, Lan Shuang's eyes were gentle, but she didn't smile or speak. At this time, there was nothing more to say.
Lan Sisi also understood, so she quickly looked away and looked at the queen and Dusilen who were tied up and pressed to the ground.
The other soldiers were driven out and gathered at the foot of the steps outside, where they were guarded by Louis.
The hall returned to silence. The ministers, having survived the disaster, had their hearts still pounding. They looked at the miserable Du Xilun siblings and immediately started spitting at them.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has colluded with Dusilen to plot a rebellion. According to the laws of Mordor, she should be hanged!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the Queen is absolutely mad! This behavior is extremely evil and must be severely punished!"
"His Majesty--"
"His Majesty……"
The minister spoke one after another, making the king's head buzz. He waved his hand impatiently, "That's enough!"
The ministers then shut up.
The king walked up to the queen and looked at her with disheveled hair and confused eyes. He almost couldn't recognize her. Was this the Celia he loved back then?
The queen was also staring at him and laughing crazily: "You really gave birth to a good daughter!"
The king closed his eyes, sighed, and waved to Lan Shuang.
Lan Shuang came over, holding up the hem of her skirt. "What's wrong?"
"She and Dusilen are left to you. I'm tired and want to go back."
Lan Shuang raised her eyebrows: "Are you sure?"
The king shook his head and left the hall without saying a word. He looked a little lonely.
"elder sister……"
Lan Sisi also came over. Before Lan Shuang could speak, she gave a bitter smile and said, "I'm not here to beg for mercy. I..."
She looked deeply at the Queen and Dusilen and said, "I want to go for the marriage alliance."
