Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 278: Chapter 168: Beating You Up Chapter 278: Chapter 168: Beating You Up The onlookers watched, speechless, as they listened to that familiar self-reference.

Memories of Lady Changsheng’s fierce behaviors started to surround them unexpectedly.

Picking someone up like a small chicken and throwing them out!

A ruthless beating without mercy!

These acts, Lady Changsheng had done them quite frequently, truly quite frequently!

What shocked the spectators even more was that right after Lady Changsheng said these words, she moved the next instant!

Before they could even see clearly.

“Smack!”

“Smack!”

Two crisp and loud slaps sounded, one straight and one backhand, leaving no side of the face untouched.

“Hiss!”

“Scary!”

Gu Changsheng disregarded the surrounding gasps and nonchalantly shook her hand!

Damn it, the force of action is mutual!

She had held nothing back with those two slaps, using all her strength; now her palms were genuinely sore.

With her fine eyebrows unmarked by ink and lips unadorned by rouge, Gu Changsheng’s lips curved into a malicious smirk, “I don’t only strike the Imperial Forest Army, I’ve struck you too, what can you do to me?”

After being fiercely slapped twice, Eunuch Gui took two steps back, stabilizing his figure with the help of Little Eunuch, while holding his cheek.

“You… you! Hiss!” His face swiftly swelled with two vivid red palm prints, and Eunuch Gui sharply inhaled in pain.

“What about me?” Gu Changsheng swirled her crimson long sleeves, placing her hands behind her back, “Since you came to Liuzhou to deliver the decree, didn’t you inquire about it when you entered the city?”

Dazed by the attack, Eunuch Gui watched the audacious, unrivaled woman in front of him, uncertain of how to react.

“I’ll tell you who I am: I am the person you’re waiting for. My surname is Gu, my name is Changsheng!” She pointed at herself with her fair jade finger, Gu Changsheng declared resoundingly.

“Scary!” Eunuch Gui gasped again.

This woman, she was that Gu Changsheng?

Had he heard wrong?

In the Capital City, rumors said that Gu Changsheng of Li Mansion, who had been deserted, was weak-willed, frail, and easily bullied.

But the one before him, she was far from what the rumors suggested!

“Gu… Gu Changsheng! You really have the gall of a god, you dare to assault me and the Imperial Forest Army! I hold the imperial edict in my hands, your blatant contempt for the Imperial Family is a crime that should lead to the extermination of your nine familial kin!” Eunuch Gui, having regained his composure, was instantly enraged!

Having labored in the Imperial Harem for half his life, when had he ever been treated so indignantly?

A small Liuzhou City, and yet someone dared to slap his face in public, if he could just let this go, then he wasn’t the influential Eunuch Gui who had thrived in the Zhou Dynasty’s harem!

“In Liuzhou City, if Zhou Mu isn’t around, I’m second to none, didn’t you inquire about it before coming?” Gu Changsheng’s large phoenix eyes slowly narrowed, “The Emperor is far away in Tiangao, in the lands of Liuzhou Region, never mind using the Emperor’s edict to suppress me, even if he himself came, as a dragon he’d still have to coil before me!”

“Eunuch Gui! I, Gu Changsheng, am especially protective of my own. Will you slap your face to resemble Uncle Song, or shall I do it myself?”

In the terrified gaze of Eunuch Gui, Gu Changsheng slowly moved her neck and knuckles, making a series of crisp sounds.

This scared Eunuch Gui so much that his heart trembled, nearly reaching his throat.

He had never encountered such a brazen person who disregarded even the Emperor’s command!

“Gu… Gu Changsheng, don’t think that just because you’ve momentarily pleased His Highness Prince Mu, you can act recklessly. Over time, familiarity breeds contempt, the old replaced by the new; I always walk among the Imperial Family, I’ve seen plenty of such cases. When Prince Mu grows tired of you, by then you won’t even know how you died!” Hiding behind the Imperial Forest Army, Eunuch Gui raised the imperial edict over his head and threatened.

“Shut up!” A cold chide came from a carriage stopped in the distance.

“You get back inside, don’t come out!” Gu Changsheng immediately reprimanded Zhou Mu who was about to lift the curtain and alight from the carriage and then turned back to Eunuch Gui, “I want to see what else you have to say!”

Zhou Mu paused with his hand on the curtain, shook his head helplessly, and finally let the curtain fall again.

If she said she didn’t want him to come over, then she really didn’t want him to come over.

She was someone who always spoke directly and never beat around the bush!

“I’m giving you time, if you have anything else to say, say it quickly. If you don’t make a move, I will!” Gu Changsheng said indifferently as she blew on her crimson fingertips.
