Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times

Chapter 968: Chapter 2918

Who gets to decide who the King of the Mermaid People is? No matter what the entire Mermaid People say, His Majesty has yet to clearly state the Second Princess’s crime, so the Second Princess remains the Second Princess of the Mermaid People...

Luo Sang doesn’t care about anything else!

Nor does he care if it will become a joke later!

Anyway, they can’t act without orders while in the Royal City before His Majesty’s command arrives; that’s out of the question. What can be done? After all, they are loyal ministers, aren’t they?

As a loyal minister, he is only responsible to the King of the Mermaid People!

”Uh... cold dishes are actually... also a good solution...” Luo Sang’s subordinate was first stunned upon hearing this, but quickly reacted and said...

That’s right!

At the moment, cold dishes are indeed the best solution!

Isn’t it?

...

Second Princess Yushu and Gu Changsheng’s group appeared openly near the Royal Army’s garrison...

To be honest, Second Princess Yushu felt very uneasy right now, because she had a constant feeling that with her current identity, appearing near the Royal Army was asking for trouble. One false move, and she might get herself into a mess...

Indeed!

She might get herself into a mess!

Because she is now a known traitor to the Mermaid People, a suspect of treason...

”Um... do we really have to go this way? Shouldn’t we be avoiding these Royal Army? Isn’t it like a wolf entering the household when we show up so openly?” After some hesitation, Second Princess Yushu spoke again.

Honestly...

Second Princess Yushu truly felt that Gu Changsheng having her pass through the Royal Army was an inappropriate move...

”A wolf entering the household? Why?” Gu Changsheng responded indifferently upon hearing this.

”Well... I’m now labeled with treason, a traitor to the Mermaid People. If it weren’t so, the Royal Army wouldn’t be garrisoned near East County...” Second Princess Yushu answered awkwardly upon hearing this...

This answer...

It’s actually well-known, isn’t it?

Gu Changsheng should understand this more clearly...

But, even knowing this, Gu Changsheng insisted that she pass through the Royal Army. If Second Princess Yushu wasn’t convinced that Gu Changsheng held no malice towards her, she might have suspected that he was trying to get her killed...

”A reputation for treason? A traitor to the Mermaid People? Haha...” Gu Changsheng sneered upon hearing this and said, ”Did you really commit treason? Are you really a traitor to the Mermaid People?”

”Of course not!” Second Princess Yushu immediately denied upon hearing this, ”How could I commit treason, how could I become a traitor to the Mermaid People? I am the Second Princess of the Mermaid People!!”

”That’s right! You still remember you are the Second Princess of the Mermaid People, that’s great! Whether you committed treason or whether you are a traitor to the Mermaid People, what others say doesn’t count. Only when your mother, the Queen of the Mermaid People, issues an official decree will it count, so what are you worried about now?”

”But this is, after all, the Royal Army garrison...” Second Princess Yushu hesitated...

”What of the Royal Army garrison?” Gu Changsheng replied, his lips slightly curled, looking at the Mermaid People soldiers suspended in the water not far away, and said slowly, ”If the Royal Army was under your sister Yuruo’s command, East County would have long turned into scorched earth, with no peace to speak of. The reason the Royal Army hasn’t moved for a long time after you withdrew your troops proves that the Royal Army isn’t your sister’s private army, and your sister doesn’t have the final say. Therefore, your mother has the final say! Since your mother hasn’t given the order for the Royal Army to move, nor decreed your guilt, you still hold the position of the Second Princess Yushu of the Mermaid People. Remember this, then walk through with your head held high and chest out!”

”...” Upon hearing this, Second Princess Yushu was immediately shocked, her eyes widening in disbelief.

”You must remember, you are destined to become the Queen of the Mermaid People in the future. If you are so timid now, you’ll only become a joke among the Mermaid People, a shame to the Royal Family, and you won’t be qualified to lead these Royal Army loyal to the Queen of the Mermaid People, understand?” Gu Changsheng turned to look at Second Princess Yushu and said one word at a time, ”From now on, learn the spirit to reign supreme over the world! Learn the decisiveness to stand alone against adversity! Learn the mindset to be successful in every venture! More importantly, learn the mindset of being peerless, fearless!”

Is being a ruler so easy?

Being a ruler has never been easy!

Otherwise, how could they possibly rule everyone?

How could they possibly intimidate their ministers?

Gu Changsheng was imparting to Second Princess Yushu the way of being an emperor...

”... Okay!” Upon hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, Second Princess Yushu was initially shocked, then nodded unconsciously...

Even she didn’t know why she nodded...

She just knew that what Gu Changsheng said seemed right, she should do as Gu Changsheng said...

”Yushu, trust my mother, my mother wouldn’t hurt you. She is a woman who became a ruler, and everything she says comes from the experience of someone who’s been there. You must believe her!” the baby said, seeing Second Princess Yushu like this, suddenly felt Second Princess Yushu was quite pitiful...

Also suddenly feeling that if they didn’t have to be rulers, they would indeed be very happy...

They don’t want to become the kind of person their mother described, just thinking about that kind of life seems exhausting, without any fun at all, right?

”I know, I will try my best, I will try my best to be a good princess of the Mermaid People, to become the Queen of the Mermaid People!” Second Princess Yushu said, taking a deep breath upon hearing this.

Then, Second Princess Yushu walked towards the Royal Army’s garrison without looking back, holding her head high and chest out...

Gu Changsheng was right...

Without that kind of spirit, without that kind of ability, on what basis could she ascend to the throne of the Queen of the Mermaid People?

To wear the crown, you must bear its weight...

From now on, she must adapt to the weight of the crown. Only then can she be a qualified emperor for the Mermaid People and a qualified king for their Fish Clan!

”Here she comes, here she comes, the Second Princess is really coming our way, what do we do, what do we do? What should we do?”

”What do you mean what should we do? Didn’t you hear the orders from the General? Just ignore it! Pretend we didn’t see it!”

”Didn’t see, didn’t see! I didn’t see anything! I didn’t see anything!”

”But just now... just now, a suspected traitor walked past me. I’m in the Royal Army, yet I let that suspect walk past...”

”What suspect? The majesty hasn’t spoken, no one can convict her, she is still the Princess of our Mermaid People!”

”Right! She is the Princess of the Mermaid People! She is the Princess of the Mermaid People!”

”...”

”...”

”...”

The arrival of Yushu had thrown the Royal Army into such chaos that words could hardly describe the disorder...

They were truly, in a state of panic, weren’t they?

Clearly, Yushu was such a conspicuous person, followed by four people, and she boldly passed through their Royal Army like this...

The scene that unfolded was simply too impactful, wasn’t it?

If word got out, they the Royal Army, would simply be a joke!

Very soon, Yushu and Gu Changsheng’s party arrived near the General’s tent...

The doors of the General’s tent were closed, making it impossible to view the situation inside...

And Yushu paused not far from the General’s tent, watching it with her eyebrows slightly raised...

”The General is really quite calm, Yushu passed through the army, yet the General could turn a blind eye...”

Looking at the General’s tent, Yushu smiled slightly and slowly said...

At this moment, Yushu’s eyes held not a trace of fear, nor any panic, as if she was merely passing through her own courtyard, instead of the Royal Army, and she herself wasn’t a Mermaid People traitor accused of treason...

”...” Inside the tent, Luo Sang heard Yushu’s words and honestly felt...

His feelings were quite complex!

Could he say he didn’t actually want to receive praise from the Second Princess?

Because this praise came too ironically, didn’t it?

Deep breath!

Luo Sang had to suppress his bad temper with great effort to resist the urge to drag Yushu in and spank her!

”But rest assured, General, the innocent are innocent. Yushu did not commit treason, nor betray the Mermaid People!”

Very quickly, Yushu’s voice came again from outside the tent, accompanied by a slight laugh, ”So, General, there’s no need to worry about being guilty by association with me!”

After saying this, Yushu didn’t linger but raised her foot to continue moving forward...

Gu Changsheng said, to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!

Gu Changsheng said, as an emperor, one must understand the Emperor’s Mind Technique!

Yushu speculated that the Great General of the Royal Army turned a blind eye to her with some idea in his heart, and she said these words just to reassure him...

Upon hearing Yushu’s words, within the tent, Luo Sang was ”...”

Gu Changsheng following behind Yushu was ”...”

In their eyes, there was an involuntary flash of appreciation, wasn’t there?

This Yushu was truly a teachable one, wasn’t she...

In such a short time, she had already learned to begin understanding people’s minds?

Although Yushu could speak such words because of Gu Changsheng’s prior guidance, to achieve this step at such a young age was already quite impressive...

And as Yushu and others left the Royal Army, smoothly passing through it and heading towards the Royal City, the General Luo Sang, who was hiding inside the tent, finally dared to emerge...

Standing at the tent entrance, Luo Sang watched the direction Yushu left, his old eyes full of thoughtful expression...

”Golden Scales are not things bound by a pond! It seems I underestimated the Second Princess before...” Finally, Luo Sang couldn’t help but let out a sigh...

”General, what do you mean by that?” Luo Sang’s confidant asked, unable to resist after hearing his words.

”The literal meaning! This time, Eldest Princess Yuruo is likely to hit a hard wall. She has always considered herself to have hidden her nature well, believing the Second Princess could never be her match. Yet, she probably never anticipated that Second Princess Yushu would have such courage and spirit...” Luo Sang replied, his gaze still resting in the direction of the Royal City, speaking slowly...
