Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 833: Chapter 661: Guiding the Realm

Unable to bear it any longer, Gu Changsheng, who was in an ethereal place, finally shouted out loudly.

”Help! Molestation! Help! Molestation!”

The hollow voice echoed throughout the treasure vault, startling those outside the vault, and of course, the two young people holding hands inside.

General Er and Jin Zhuer were scared half to death by the sudden voice, immediately jumping apart and looking around in confusion.

”Who?”

”Who? Come out!”

General Er’s face was beet red with rage, hopping mad. Damn it, was it easy for him to find a wife? Who was so heartless to come out and disrupt at this moment?

Not afraid of heavenly retribution for breaking up lovers!

”Who? Which little brat is causing trouble, come out for Second Master to see if I don’t strip your clothes and parade you around the camp!” The oppressive might of the Great General was fully on display from General Er, his eyes flashing with anger, furious to the extreme!

A row of soldiers who heard the commotion and rushed over immediately lowered their heads and dared not look.

Beside him, Jin Zhuer’s face was burning red, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into!

Gu Changsheng, who was watching them, gritted their teeth even harder upon hearing the words ”strip clothes!”

Some things can be tolerated, others cannot. Don’t rip open old wounds like that!

Damn it, it hurts! Just like being stripped naked by Hongyan Jiaojiao and Wuchang Yue again! Damn it!

Gu Changsheng cursed under their breath!

Meanwhile, below, everyone’s gaze turned to Jin Zhuer, making her even more ashamed, with her noble lady demeanor lost. Her face blushed as red as fire, hurriedly explaining, ”No! No, it’s not me!”

That wasn’t her shouting!

General Er was also certain that the cry of molestation wasn’t called out by Jin Zhuer because she was right beside him at the time, and he hadn’t heard her speak!

For a moment, the atmosphere in the treasure vault became exceptionally strange!

A figure, walking in with strides reminiscent of Zhou Mu, looked up, glanced around aimlessly, and uncertainly spoke to the air, ”His Highness Changsheng?”

The person was Jiang One, who wasn’t far from the treasure vault and had a sensitive feeling of being watched. The chill behind him prompted him to come over as soon as he heard the hollow, gender-ambiguous voice resounding from the vault.

That voice was so familiar, as if it came from the void, with hidden authority; he had heard it on the day of the expedition to Liaodong, at Great Zhou’s Northern Frontier!

Back then, His Highness Changsheng had transmitted his voice over a thousand miles to plead with his own master to stop the fighting...

”Brother, are you out of your mind? His Highness Changsheng is still in Southern Chen, isn’t he? Who knows, it might be some little brat hiding in the shadows messing with me!” General Er was still somewhat aggrieved.

Jiang One remained silent, casting a searching gaze around.

Having been discovered, Gu Changsheng let out a cold snort.

The snort came from the void above the vault, creating an indescribably eerie feeling, sending chills down everyone’s spine.

”Jiang One, long time no see, your cultivation has become more refined. No wonder you can exist as a Stand-in for the evildoer...” Gu Changsheng’s breezy words conveyed through a skewed dimension, perceptively recognizing his distant spying, indicating Jiang One to be quite a master.

There was no one above, yet the voice came from nowhere.

Upon hearing this, Jiang One immediately knelt on one knee, lowered his head, ”Subordinate Jiang One pays respect to His Highness.”

Beside him, General Er’s eyes bulged in surprise.

The line of soldiers, surprised, soon knelt down as well.

Jin Zhuer couldn’t care about being shy anymore, lifting her head in terror and looking around aimlessly.

”Little brat, I heard you want to strip me and plant a flag around the camp? Hmm?” Grinding her teeth, Gu Changsheng’s anger was transmitted across the void.

”No... no!” General Er snapped back and immediately knelt down with a thud, ”Subordinate General Er pays respect to His Highness.”

”Hmph!”

A cold snort came, and General Er instantly broke into a cold sweat, speaking timidly, ”Your Highness, no need to frighten people like this, can’t we forget about this matter?”

”Obviously not! Just wait, I’ll strip you bare and hang you on the city gate of Liuzhou for display!” Gu Changsheng’s vengeful and petty nature was on full display.

”Can I apply to be stripped and have a flag planted around the camp instead?” Being hung up on the city gate of Liuzhou? That would indeed be a humiliation brought right to his doorstep! General Er struggled.

”No! No bargaining allowed, go home, take a clean bath, and wait for me!” Gu Changsheng glanced at him in disdain from the void, turning to the panic-stricken Jin Zhuer, her voice slightly subdued, ”Jin Linyuan’s sister?”

”Ah? Yes.” Jin Zhuer’s legs went weak, and she immediately knelt down beside General Er, looking extremely apprehensive.

”The Crown Princes of the Four Kingdoms have gathered in Liuzhou City. Your brother joined forces with the Three Kingdoms, causing such destruction at Hengtang Lake, leading to the fall of my attendant Ning Er. Over a hundred dead soldiers perished, and nearly had my son buried in the fires of Baili Mountain. This account, I originally intended to cleanse your Northern Country’s Jin Family Imperial Family to settle it...”

At this moment, the imperial might belonging to the Southwestern Co-Ruler was undeniably revealed with the hollow voice.

”Your Highness?” General Er was startled upon hearing.

Jiang Yi and others’ faces were also somewhat apprehensive.

Jin Zhuer’s face turned ashen, collapsed on the ground, overwhelmed with fear.

In the end, can’t escape?

Offended the forbidden tribe, under the Celestial Tome, disaster arrives, can’t escape in the end?

Jin Zhuer at this moment felt that Liaodong of the Northern Country was certainly doomed...

But at this moment, the hollow voice in the void came again, carrying boundless authority, ”Yet I am about to marry, the evildoer still has a trace of benevolence, how can I not fulfill his happiness? Liaodong is to wed with my Great Zhou, from now on bloodlines are connected, no distinction between us, Jin Zhuer, convey my words to Dowager Empress Xiao, she is a smart person, she knows what to do.”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yi was shocked and his eyes widened.

Narrow escape, Jin Zhuer broke out in a cold sweat, crawled and bowed down, ”Jin Zhuer will surely convey the words of Emperor Changsheng!”

Gu Changsheng heard and hummed lightly with a hint of unwillingness, looked at the distinctly shocked Jiang Yi, smiled slightly, ”Jiang Yi, you are indeed perceptive, however, I do not have the ambition to unify the Central Plains, thus handing over Liaodong to your Great Zhou could be considered a respectable dowry.”

”Your Highness...” Jiang Yi trembled all over, unable to express his excitement.

”My thousands of soldiers will arrive in the Central Plains, and will use the blood of Southern Chen to offer sacrifice for my royal flag, and will end the fighting in the Southern Country. Henceforth, the Southern Country will belong to my Southwest Barbarian Tribes. Liaodong harbors hostility towards us, and I will not allow it to establish itself as a nation again. If it seeks preservation, it should submit to Great Zhou. As long as Zhou Mu remains, Liaodong’s people will remain safe under his protection. Otherwise, my soldiers will surely trample Liaodong and turn it to ruins!” Gu Changsheng’s words carried difficult-to-contain resentment, echoed through the void like thunder.

Below, as a member of the Liaodong Royal Family, Jin Zhuer’s delicate body trembled, bowed low to the ground, not daring to lift her head.

”Your Highness?” Jiang Yi was truly startled by Gu Changsheng’s words, listening to the meaning, under the Nine Layers of the Celestial Tome, their Lady Changsheng actually had intentions to cease the fighting, yet she wanted to designate the frontier and delineate the grand situation?

For a moment, besides Jiang Yi, General Er’s face was also panic-stricken, everyone felt somewhat incredulous.

Gu Changsheng looked at them, smiled silently, ”You are very adept at looting, I like it, thus, after looting, immediately return to Great Zhou, relay my intention to that old man, Borjigin Nian and I have shared life and death camaraderie, the Northern Mongolian Land, I cannot offer it graciously. Henceforth, the world will be divided into three, the Southern Country entirely in my hands, the northern frontier, Great Zhou and Northern Mongolia coexist, after the southern affairs are settled, I will abide by the agreement of that day and go to the Capital to marry the evildoer.”

”Yes, Your Highness.” General Er bowed and took orders.

The soldiers within the treasury celebrated and cheered.

Gu Changsheng mused, his gaze lingering on the fearful young girl, his brow furrowed, he murmured softly, ”Such a nice cabbage, was uprooted by a pig...”

General Er instinctively categorized himself among the pigs.

Jin Zhuer was stunned, uneasily lifted her head, gazed into the void.

”Hmph! Others’ dowries may be partially allowed to remain, yours, I took it, General Er, you little brat, I will definitely not let you enjoy carefree happiness that surpasses nobility, you just wait obediently, wait for me to come back and tidy you up!” Gu Changsheng hadn’t forgotten about General Er’s intent to strip her clean.

Jin Zhuer was instantly dumbfounded.

”Uh...” General Er was dark all over, speechless and choked, ”How severe is the grudge, how deep the animosity, that you regard the small ones so rigorously?”

”Very deep!” Gu Changsheng glared from the void, ”I absolutely cannot stand this kind of threat!”

”Little ones didn’t know it was you, if I knew, even with the courage of a giant, I wouldn’t dare to shout...” General Er regretted so much that he wanted to bite off his tongue, looking aggrievedly, they all knew Gu Changsheng’s temper, hence even more resentfully...

”Hmph! Once Dowager Empress Xiao makes a decision, you may take the submission document back to the court, remember, before you leave, make sure to sweep Liaodong thoroughly clean for me, I love money the most!” Gu Changsheng spoke resentfully.

”As you command.” Jiang Yi and General Er bowed their heads in acquiescence.

In an instant, silence returned to the void, no more sounds were heard.

After a while, General Er broke into a cold sweat with a shiver, spoke resentfully, ”No wonder it’s Emperor Changsheng, this grand presence is increasingly terrifying! Elder brother, it looks like I’ve offended Emperor Changsheng, how should this matter be resolved?”

Upon hearing, Jiang Yi rose from the ground, glanced disdainfully at his younger brother, spoke, ”Be sensible, once back at the court, hang yourself at the city gate, don’t trouble His Highness to take personal action, when His Highness strips you bare, Master will have no choice but to finish you off.”

Upon hearing, General Er shivered instantly, let Lady Changsheng take personal action to strip him bare?

Well, Master will absolutely make sure to cut him up first!

”Oh my, why is my life so bitter! My foul mouth, why did I defy His Highness’s taboo!” General Er cried out, then froze, ”Wait, why does His Highness have such a taboo against being stripped?”

”Do you want to court death?” Jiang Yi cast a cold glance.

General Er immediately kept his doubts to himself, dared not speak, yet internally still wondered, could it be that someone indeed had the audacity to strip Lady Changsheng? Incredible, truly incredible, this matter must be told bit by bit to Master...
