Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 933: Chapter 741: The Evildoer Dies, the Immortal Daoist Lives (Part 2)

This change, isn’t it a bit too fast?

They are having a hard time keeping up!

Not to mention the officials of the Southern Country, even Mr. Ban Shan was stunned. Everything was fine when Changsheng’s adopted daughter came to pay her respects in the morning, wasn’t it? How did it become so disastrous in just half a day?

Mr. Ban Shan was very puzzled, but he couldn’t hide the trace of worry and heartache in his eyes!

”Dad... sob...” Seeing the tall, thin figure standing at the door, still brimming with anger, Gu Changsheng lifted her head with difficulty, wiped her eyes with her hand, and hesitantly called out.

”Changsheng!” Confirming it was his own daughter, Gu Taitian immediately panicked, hurried a few steps forward, and took his daughter from Xiao Cui and Han Qiu, with his anger vanishing instantly, leaving only worry.

”Dad, I thought I would never see you again, sob...” Gu Changsheng said, her eyes red and speaking pitifully.

Behind her, the young one shivered swiftly at her words, and Yue Xilou and Borjigin Nian lowered their heads, their shoulders trembling slightly.

Meanwhile, the officials of the Southern Country kneeling on the ground lost their balance and fell face-first to the ground, getting even closer to the Mother Earth!

”How could this be? You were full of life when you left Liuzhou, full of spirit, so how did you become so weak upon reaching the Capital City?” Gu Taitian adjusted the stray hairs by his daughter’s cheek, speaking anxiously, ”Are you ill? Has the Imperial Physician seen you? What did they say?”

”Dad...” Seeing the sincere concern from her father, Gu Changsheng felt guilty in her heart.

But in Gu Taitian’s eyes, that look made him feel more and more that his daughter had been wronged in the Capital City, his expression darkened immediately, ”Did someone in Zhou Mu’s family give you a hard time? Or did someone bully you? Changsheng, don’t be afraid, your father is here, tell your father who bullied you, and I’ll get justice for you!”

As Gu Taitian spoke, the murderous intent in his eyes gradually rose.

”Huh?” Gu Changsheng was dumbfounded upon hearing it, someone gave her a hard time? Who would dare to do that?

Why did her father’s concern focus on her being wronged? Shouldn’t he be taking her back to the palace quickly to have the Imperial Physician treat her? She had already instructed the palace physicians!

Why didn’t things go as she planned?

Why did her father seem ready to fight someone to the death?

Gu Taitian withdrew his hand from tidying his daughter’s stray hairs, twitched his fingers, and his eyes subtly twinkled when no one noticed, then spoke again, ”Changsheng, quickly tell father who made you sick like this, father will avenge you!”

”Dad! It’s not like that! No one harmed me or gave me a hard time!” Gu Changsheng was almost in tears, heavens! Why didn’t anyone dare to give her a hard time? She desperately needed a scapegoat!

”Not bullied, not harmed, how did you become like this?” Gu Taitian shouted coldly upon hearing this, ”My daughter Changsheng, a treasured body worth ten thousand gold, and now you’re sick like this, how can it be for no reason? Changsheng, don’t prevaricate with father! Father is well-versed in mysticism, are you forcing him to divine for you? Just tell father the truth, who harmed you like this? Was it that brat Zhou Mu?”

At this point, a flash of sharpness flickered across Gu Taitian’s weary, doting eyes.

”Huh?” Gu Changsheng was stunned again, seeing her father who wouldn’t stop until he got to the bottom of it, feeling desperate and teary-eyed. Taking advantage of her makeup-enhanced sickly appearance, she nodded weakly under her father’s gaze, ”Yes... it was him... he insisted on cooking for me, it was so awful that it made me vomit and caused stomach problems... Dad...”

It’s better to sacrifice the evildoer than for her dad to burst out and tear down the palace!

Gu Changsheng really regretted devising this lousy plan of pretending to be sick.

It’s all Xiao Roubao’s fault!

Thinking of this, Gu Changsheng involuntarily lowered her head, looking at the little one following her, her gaze almost devouring.

”Old Handsome Grandpa... mom really ate something bad...” Uncle Wood, I’m sorry! Under his mother’s intense gaze, Xiao Roubao shrunk his neck, spoke timidly, then stepped forward to perform a formal bow, ”Grandchild Yaoyao greets Grandfather, welcomes Grandmother, may Grandfather be well, and Grandmother rest in peace!”

Xiao Roubao’s interruption reminded everyone of the ceremony.

In an instant, even Gu Changsheng couldn’t care about anything else, collected herself, knelt, and respectfully bowed, ”Daughter welcomes Father and Mother.”

”Welcome Sovereign Highness, The Lord!”

”Welcome Uncle Gu, Aunt Gu!”

Seeing everyone not forgetting to inquire about his beloved wife during the ceremony, Gu Taitian’s expression improved a bit, he glanced back, and a nostalgic look was cast towards the carriage behind him, his mouth slightly curved.

Now, the onlooking commoners were even more confused. They finally understood, the man daring to shout at the Heavenly Palace Gate was the biological father of the Southern Emperor, the Lord of the Southern Country. No wonder he dared to be so bold, because he had ample confidence. See, even the Southern Emperor kneeled in welcome, this is tradition and ethics, even the Southern Emperor cannot skip the ceremony!

But, since this man is the biological father of the Southern Emperor, standing right in front of them, where is the Sovereign Highness everyone talks about? How come they haven’t seen him?

Just as Gu Taitian helped up his daughter and called everyone to rise, a line of figures hurriedly came speeding over...
