Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 1599 - 1229: Prepare, Press Forward Relentlessly!
Everyone turned to look at Gu Changsheng as soon as they heard her words!
Under their gaze, Gu Changsheng felt a bit awkward and couldn’t help but touch her nose, mumbling, "What I meant was, if I had known that Borjigin Lvchi had such a plan, I wouldn’t have shown mercy and just crippled him. I should have slapped him to death and let him have tea with Lord Yama! Then I wouldn’t have all these troubles!"
Gu Changsheng never regrets what she has done!
For Borjigin Lvchi to stir up trouble between her and Borjigin Nian, it was a fool’s dream. Gu Changsheng and Borjigin Nian had a bond forged through life and death situations. If they could be swayed by Borjigin Lvchi’s words, it would indeed be strange!
But now, she hesitated to kill Borjigin Lvchi and kept him alive, only for it to become a problem!
Killing Borjigin Lvchi would have spared the trouble of being trapped in the North Mongolia Royal City, but if they didn’t act, those rebellious imperial families and their instigators wouldn’t go for broke either!
But now, Borjigin Lvchi was still alive and even brought up Longevity Heaven!
This was truly...
"There’s no medicine for regret. If you regret now, it’s probably too late!" Shi Wujue also stepped down from his high seat, looking at Gu Changsheng, and said slowly.
"Indeed! If we had killed Borjigin Lvchi, it might have been easier. But now he’s slipped away, which means he has other tricks up his sleeve. I’m afraid in North Mongolia Royal City, your father is definitely under their control!" Zhou Mu looked at the empty door of the Flower Hall, speaking worriedly. "Borjigin Lvchi is a big problem, dead or alive!"
This point is beyond doubt!
As the emissary from Northern Mongolian, Borjigin Lvchi must have something backing him!
And that backing is precisely what everyone present is most concerned about—Borjigin Nian’s Father King!
If it weren’t for Borjigin Nian’s Father King, they would have acted long ago without hesitation!
But now, they’re stuck, unable to advance or retreat!
"So what now? That girl isn’t really going to marry that cripple, right? Marrying him would ruin her whole life!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man looked at the gloomy faces around him, spread his hands, and asked helplessly.
"Borjigin Lvchi is now a cripple. Even if Borjigin Nian marries him now, it wouldn’t ruin her life! The key issue is Longevity Heaven—it is an invisible shackle for Borjigin Nian!" Gu Changsheng said in a deep, somber voice. "Damn Longevity Heaven! Those fools of Northern Mongolia, sticking to old ways, they’re such a nuisance! Why do I feel that for her Father King, Borjigin Nian might really jump into this pit?"
Hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but look at each other, faces full of worry.
They had to admit, this was also their concern!
Given Borjigin Nian’s concern for her Father King, they didn’t doubt that she would agree to Borjigin Lvchi’s conditions...
Everyone’s expressions grew heavier!
To them, Borjigin Nian was like family. Watching her jump into the fire pit, how could Gu Changsheng and others be willing?
But right now, what can they do even if they don’t want to?
To be honest, Gu Changsheng secretly harbors a rebellious thought: Borjigin Nian’s Father King might as well be dead!
If Borjigin Nian’s Father King died, they wouldn’t be led around by the nose!
Of course, Gu Changsheng was just thinking about it. She’s filial herself and can fully understand Borjigin Nian’s feelings now!
A biological father, blood ties—how could Borjigin Nian let go of that?
"Actually, this matter is as easy as it is difficult!" The Medicine Immortal Old Man rubbed his grizzled beard and said with a mischievous expression, "Killing Borjigin Lvchi is impossible, because if not handled properly, Borjigin Nian would end up fatherless! But now, with Borjigin Lvchi being a cripple, marrying him loses nothing. As long as she doesn’t care about Longevity Heaven or the status of a married woman, why not just go with the flow and return to Northern Mongolia openly?"
Saying this, the Medicine Immortal Old Man blinked to everyone’s amusement, "See, didn’t I say it right?"
"Nonsense!" Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes dramatically and looked at her master twitchily, "Nonsense! Absolute nonsense! Even if Borjigin Nian doesn’t care about being married, she would never disregard Longevity Heaven!"
As she spoke, Gu Changsheng’s bright face was full of conviction, "In Borjigin Nian’s heart, Longevity Heaven is like the Buddha to a devout Buddhist—high and unyielding! Asking her to ignore the matrimonial pledge witnessed by Longevity Heaven is like forcing a Buddhist to break vows and eat meat!"
"Uh..." The Medicine Immortal Old Man blinked and glanced around, mumbling, "Well, I think, eating meat for a believer isn’t that hard. Little Monk Bu Jie eats plenty of meat daily without much difficulty!"
"That freak! You think everyone in the world is like him?" Gu Changsheng retorted furiously!
Can Little Monk Bu Jie really be considered a proper monk?
In a certain sense, he is indeed considered to be, for example, his little head is always shaved shiny and bright, but, his shiny head doesn’t have burn scars from branding!
Moreover, he doesn’t abide by the Buddhist precepts either, living somewhat like a person who indulges in the world while keeping Buddha in his heart!
However, it’s evident that Borjigin Nian, as someone who believes in Longevity Heaven, doesn’t possess the same enlightenment as Little Monk Bu Jie!
Isn’t this quite troublesome?
"What should we do now?" Upon hearing this, the Medical Immortal Old Man shrugged his shoulders helplessly.
"I don’t know! Everything depends on Borjigin Nian’s choice! If she is willing to take the risk, we may well find another way to rescue her Father King! However, my concern is that she is so filial, for her Father King, she might not be willing to take any risk, and even if there’s a fire pit ahead, she would jump into it without hesitation!" Gu Changsheng mused and spoke very practically.
The crowd couldn’t help but nod upon hearing this.
Clearly, they all had the same thought!
In the Flower Hall, everyone instantly fell into hesitation and difficulty!
Finally, it was Gu Changsheng who first broke the silence, waving her hand heartily and saying, "Three days, neither long nor short! Everything depends on Borjigin Nian’s choice! No matter what decision she makes, I will support her! Life is long, let’s deal with the present first! It’s time for us to prepare!"
As she spoke, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but look out of the Flower Hall, her gaze lingering in an empty place, her eyes deep and slowly speaking, "Northern Mongolia, this land believed to be chaotic, we must be cautious!"
Needless to say, Gu Changsheng, though confident, is a very rational person!
Gu Changsheng would absolutely not be careless, understanding deeply that complacency leads to defeat; she would never make such a simple mistake!
She is accustomed to being fully prepared, to greet the best result!
Of course, things rarely go so perfectly!
Therefore, knowing that there must be someone secretly orchestrating behind the chaos in Northern Mongolia, Gu Changsheng has no choice but to be exceedingly cautious!
"Diao Chan, mobilize the Dark Night Army! Prepare all the supplies, provisions, and cold-resistant items for the journey north within three days!" Without turning back, Gu Changsheng spoke to Diao Chan behind her.
"As you command!" Diao Chan responded immediately, bowing.
Although her master’s words were not complete, the phrase about things needed for the journey north felt as heavy as a thousand pounds to Diao Chan!
Were her master referring to things needed in Northern Mongolia, Diao Chan might not be so tense, but her master spoke of the journey north!
Clearly, her master has no intention of stopping at Northern Mongolia; her ultimate goal remains the Divine Demise Land located in the Far North...
Diao Chan understood the underlying meaning in Gu Changsheng’s words, and among those present, few were fools?
They naturally understood the deep meaning in Gu Changsheng’s words!
In the end, she still would not give up! A single thought would make her become a demon, relentlessly moving northward, even without the calculation of the secret plotter, solely for the person within the coffin!
This is the Gu Changsheng they know!
Unyielding and decisive, never hesitating!
You may say she isn’t a qualified emperor, but you can’t deny she isn’t a good daughter!
On this point, everyone present knows it is utterly impossible to stop Gu Changsheng!
Unable to stop her, all they can do is accompany her on the journey!
Shi Wujue stood behind the crowd, his world-shaking face carried a hint of confusion as he watched Gu Changsheng finish instructing Diao Chan and then leave, his expression somewhat lost...
Until the Flower Hall was empty, leaving only Shi Wujue standing there!
His slender figure expressed indescribable loneliness...
"Finally, you chose to move north, step by step, walking into the chessboard I personally set..."
