Chapter 1217

Goss led Su Xiao through the courtyard and into the somewhat dilapidated two-story residence. It was cleaned very neatly, just not repaired for a long time.

Goss pushed the door and entered the residence, coming to the living room.

"Her Highness the Princess is indeed resting. Please wait a moment."

Goss walked upstairs along the stairs. Su Xiao didn't wait in the living room but walked up the stairs together.

"Iron Hand, stop right there..."

Boom!

Su Xiao suddenly kicked Goss in the lower abdomen. Goss never expected Su Xiao to take action, so he was kicked away directly.

Bang, bang...

Goss stabilized his figure after crashing through two walls. He landed in a half-squatting position, covering his lower abdomen with one hand, his face pale.

"You think I'm here to request an audience with Alisa Herbert? If you dare to nag again, I'll slaughter Alisa Herbert along with you."

Su Xiao glanced at Goss and continued to walk upstairs.

Goss half-squatted on the ground, his face changing constantly. Amu and Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang blocked his way. If he dared to step forward again, he would die here today. Su Xiao's patience had a limit. Although he wanted to use this guy as cannon fodder, he wouldn't allow this guy to keep nagging.

Goss's face was as gloomy as water. It was true that his mission was to guard Alisa Herbert, but was that really the case?

Long-term guarding made Goss's loyalty begin to twist. I don't know when it started, but the weak princess had been regarded by him as a personal possession. Of course, he didn't have the guts to profane the princess, but he strongly rejected outsiders approaching Princess Alisa.

Su Xiao's visit to Alisa Herbert wasn't a private visit, but an order. It wasn't a question of whether Alisa Herbert wanted to see him, but that she must see him.

In a study on the second floor, a girl with long golden hair and a white dress was flipping through a book. Hearing the sudden loud noise from downstairs, she was startled, and the book in her hand slipped to the ground.

With a creak, the door was pushed open. Alisa Herbert turned her head to look, and a strange man walked into the room. The man's gaze gave her an instinctive fear.

"H-hello."

Alisa Herbert spoke in a low voice, but her voice was very low, and Su Xiao didn't hear what she said at all.

Su Xiao stepped forward, only about a meter away from Alisa Herbert. Alisa Herbert's breathing was a bit rapid. Except for her father the King and the guardian knight Goss, no man had ever been this close to her. As for touching her, since Alisa was sensible, no man had ever touched her, which was inseparable from Goss's somewhat twisted "guarding."

"D-do you have any business?"

Alisa Herbert had her right hand behind her back, holding a very thick book. This was her "weapon" for self-defense.

However, Alisa Herbert's expression wasn't that tough. That expression clearly meant: if you dare to come over again, I'll cry for you to see.

Su Xiao seemed to have discovered a "new species." He had seen many princes and princesses. Those people were either elegant in speech or generous in behavior. A princess like Alisa Herbert was indeed rare.

The reason Alisa Herbert was like this was because she often stayed at home reading books, which was her biggest hobby, because in her view, the outside world was too dangerous. The way those strange men looked at her seemed like they wanted to eat her at any time. As for those older brothers, they were even more terrifying.

Alisa Herbert didn't want to die, so she protected herself in an alternative way, which was to make herself unthreatening.

Facts proved that Alisa Herbert succeeded. When the Third Prince learned that Su Xiao had come to find Alisa Herbert, the Third Prince's expression was very wonderful. His first thought was that the somewhat arrogant holy warrior was dead, and his second thought was that Alisa Herbert, this little rabbit, might be very miserable.

That's right, the princes and princesses privately called Alisa Herbert a little rabbit, a beautiful "herbivore," the most useless princess in history. None other.

The reason Alisa Herbert had no fiefdom wasn't that the old King didn't give it to her. Originally, Alisa Herbert had obtained a fiefdom that wasn't rich but had a good geographical location.

However, a few months later, the old King was surprised to learn that an insurgent army had actually appeared in that fiefdom. Even the calm old King was stunned for a few seconds. After learning the reason, the old King drank some wine that night before barely falling asleep. Before going to bed, he issued an order to bring Alisa Herbert back to the royal capital, grant her a residence, let her live in the royal capital, and not go out to disgrace the royal family.

In fact, when the old King issued the order, the castle where Alisa Herbert was located had already been surrounded by the insurgent army, and she was shivering inside the castle.

That night, Kingdom Legion Commander Heslet rushed over overnight and wiped out all the insurgent army early the next morning. After Heslet learned the reason for these people's uprising, he was speechless for a long time and finally only said, "His Majesty is wise."

Just like that, Alisa Herbert, whose management ability was so poor it was eye-stinging, was sent to the royal capital. The old King really didn't want to see this waste, so he arranged for Alisa Herbert to be on the edge of the royal capital.

Alisa Herbert was a beautiful princess. If some drunkard with guts dared to break into her house, it would be a scandal for the royal family. Therefore, the old King granted the holy warrior Goss to Alisa Herbert to protect Alisa Herbert's safety.

In the words of the Seventh Prince, Goss's strength was very strong, but he regarded himself too highly, commonly known as having no self-awareness. Among the holy warriors, Goss belonged to the ranks of being extremely rejected because he was too arrogant and almost looked down on everyone.

Just like that, two oddballs settled in the royal capital, one master and one servant, the master was useless to the point of being hilarious, and the servant was arrogant to the point of being insolent.

Even so, all the princes and princesses had a cognition that Alisa Herbert was an unthreatening "herbivore."

Usually when this situation occurred, Alisa Herbert was either a scheming bitch or a scheming bitch. Initially, those princes and princesses all thought so, but a few years later, they were surprised to find that they had misunderstood this younger sister. She was really useless; that wasn't pretended at all.

The old King chose Alisa Herbert actually for no special reason, simply to make use of waste. He knew that those princes or princesses wouldn't have a good end if they fell into Su Xiao's hands, so he chose a relatively useless one, indirectly preserving strength for the kingdom.

"T-that, it's lunchtime. Can I go have lunch?"

Alisa Herbert spoke very weakly. Su Xiao's brows twitched. It was already this situation, and this princess was still thinking about lunch? It was indeed rare to be this useless to the point of waiting for death.

"Y-you say something, could it be..."

Alisa Herbert seemed to think of something terrible. Seeing her expression, Su Xiao felt that he finally understood the current situation.

"Could it be... you're here to rob?"

Alisa Herbert was very serious, while Su Xiao put away his previous thoughts. This guy's brain circuit was on par with Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang's, who was currently acting stupid.

"Follow me."

Su Xiao turned and walked out of the room.

"I, I won't."

Alisa Herbert became tough. If she wasn't shivering, perhaps she would be a bit more convincing.

"Don't talk nonsense."

Killing intent surged in Su Xiao's eyes.

"Help!! Even if I die, I will... wait, don't, don't kill me, I'll go."

Su Xiao carried Alisa Herbert downstairs. Beyond doubt, such a stupid princess was very suitable to be taken under the throne. If it were a competition of IQ, even Xiang Ignoring Bubu Wang in its stupid state could crush her.
