Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 94: Chapter 52 Zhou Mu King’s Decree

“Evildoer, we shouldn’t be exposing our identities like this…” Gu Changsheng nervously continued to whisper, as she didn’t want to attract any trouble.

Zhou Mu frowned and glanced at her, but remained silent.

“Someone really doesn’t care about their life, huh? Do you think you are the law? Why don’t you claim you are the County Prince as well?” Unlike the women who were timid upon seeing Zhou Mu, the men were generally quite jealous, and didn’t mince their words.

“How dare you! He is the County…” Eunuch Yuan Bao, who had just gotten up from the ground, was the first to rush forward and call out to the man.

Gu Changsheng was quick to react and stretched out a foot, causing Eunuch Yuan Bao to stumble and fall back to the ground, his words left unfinished.

Eunuch Yuan Bao spat out the mud in his mouth with a sense of grievance and complained, “Lady Changsheng…”

...

Why trip him? Why was it always him getting hurt?

“Eunuch Yuan Bao, how could you be so careless? You all heard that, Eunuch Yuan Bao is here, Wood, he is… an indispensable aide to the County Prince!” Gu Changsheng glanced at Zhou Mu, who was quietly observing from the side, and could only desperately try to save herself.

Keep making it up! A lie told a thousand times becomes a maxim!

Eunuch Yuan Bao, who had gotten up from the ground, looked at his master with a wronged face. When had he ever said that?

To spread rumors so shamelessly right to their faces! And the master just let her run wild!

The crowd finally recognized who the person was. It was none other than the Grand Steward of the County Prince’s Mansion, Eunuch Yuan Bao!

A rustling sound as everyone knelt down, completely changing from their previous righteous demeanor. This was Eunuch Yuan Bao! The County Prince hadn’t shown his face for ten years; in the County Prince’s Mansion, he was the one with the absolute power!

When commoners see an official, they have only one reaction: kneel!

“This commoner pays respects to Eunuch Yuan Bao!”

“This commoner pays respects to Eunuch Yuan Bao!”

…

The sound of continuous kowtowing filled Gu Changsheng’s ears, assaulting her fragile nerves and nearly pushing her over the edge!

“Eunuch Yuan Bao really commands quite the presence. Should this common girl also offer her respects?” A bunch of blind fools, just sitting nicely here, one by one clambering to worship a fake immortal so eagerly, what idiots!

Eunuch Yuan Bao glanced at his master sitting aside and then turned to Gu Changsheng, begging for mercy, “Lady Changsheng, don’t scare the servant. My bravery is small, and I can’t withstand being frightened…”

Oh dear, his own mother! Lady Changsheng is the master’s sweetheart, and although her status is inappropriate, the master is set on her! In the future, if by some misfortune she truly becomes his Matriarch the County Princess Consort, then not even ten heads would be enough for him to lose!

“Are you done playing?” Zhou Mu raised an eyebrow and looked at Gu Changsheng.

That one glance told Gu Changsheng that the gentleman was growing impatient. Done!

“Done playing, but they don’t seem happy about it…” She had been wanting to end the scene, but why wouldn’t this group of people leave after being beaten?

Zhou Mu helplessly glanced at her and asked, “Then how do you plan to wrap this up?”

He shouldn’t have asked, but now that he did, Gu Changsheng perked up, her smile unnervingly wicked, “There’s a saying, the fox never became a spirit only because it wasn’t cunning enough. I think I went too easy on them. How about I add a few more kicks?”

Zhou Mu pondered for a moment and then nodded, “As long as you’re happy.”

The kneeling crowd was shocked…

Eunuch Yuan Bao was speechless…

Gu Changsheng’s eyes widened in surprise. Damn! That all actually worked, she was just talking nonsense!

“That was just a joke, fighting is not right…” Gu Changsheng wiped the sweat from the tip of her nose. Holy smokes, Zhou Mu, the evildoer, must have taken the wrong medicine!

The people kneeling on the ground with swollen faces began to tear up collectively. You’ve already beaten them up, and now you say fighting is not right? Why didn’t you have this realization when you were hitting people earlier?

“There’s no need for you to suffer in silence. It’s better to just do as you please. Those few words you said earlier were very good,” Zhou Mu patted the hand by his side, his tone indescribably indulgent.

Gu Changsheng looked blankly at the hand that was being patted and asked in bewilderment, “Which ones?”

“Those who deceive me, perish! Those who insult me, extinguish! Those who belittle me, slaughter! Those who disrespect me, life worse than death!” Zhou Mu repeated each word deliberately, his expression enigmatic.

Eunuch Yuan Bao wiped the cold sweat from his brow. Was the master really going to condone Lady Changsheng committing all manner of atrocities?

Gu Changsheng also wiped away her cold sweat. Oh heavens! How long had he been eavesdropping?

“Yuan Bao, brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.” Zhou Mu glanced at Eunuch Yuan Bao and commanded coldly.

Eunuch Yuan Bao resignedly stepped back.

“Why do you need the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone?” Gu Changsheng asked cluelessly. At this time, could it be time to write an apology letter?

No way! She’d rather die than write!

“Today, some people came to make trouble. Although you handled it well enough, you were ultimately too kind and lenient. In the future, there will surely be others who will come to cause trouble. How will you handle them?” Zhou Mu took the writing materials handed over by Eunuch Yuan Bao and passed them to Gu Changsheng, “Write down any warnings you have for those who might come knocking with trouble in the future.”
