Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 1605 - 1235: Little Bun’s Revenge!
"If the King of Northern Mongolia is placed at Yanmen Pass, why don’t they just hand him over to us directly? It would save me the trouble of going through all this to rescue him!"
"Sir..." Under Gu Changsheng’s shout, Diao Chan’s head dropped lower and her eyes became pitiful.
Seeing her like this, Gu Changsheng sighed, then with a thoughtful look, her phoenix eyes spun a few times, she lifted her hand, resting it on her chin, and said, "But, my evildoer said, not necessarily..."
"Sir! Then why did you..." Why hit your underling, why scold your underling?
Diao Chan couldn’t finish her sentence before she saw Gu Changsheng’s ’you’re an idiot’ expression and fell silent...
"As Borjigin Lvchi’s life-saving leverage, it’s quite possible the King of Northern Mongolia is at Yanmen Pass!" Gu Changsheng said thoughtfully, "Supposedly, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Maybe they think we wouldn’t target Yanmen Pass and so they’ve placed the King of Northern Mongolia there?"
"Sir, are you suggesting we attack?"
Upon hearing this, Diao Chan immediately asked, feeling the need to defend herself.
"Splat!"
In the next instant, a slap landed on Diao Chan’s forehead again.
"Attack! Attack! Attack! Diao Chan, when will you learn to use that gold-weighted brain of yours for something other than war? I taught you military strategy not for you to fill your head with straw!" Gu Changsheng was truly helpless towards Diao Chan; she had never seen a General so unlike a General!
"Sir... did I say something wrong again? You’re the one who said the King of Northern Mongolia might be at Yanmen Pass..." After being hit twice, Diao Chan was so aggrieved she was on the verge of tears!
That pitiful expression on Diao Chan’s rough and manly face was quite strange, giving off some vibes of an unattractive woman trying to imitate a beauty!
"Diao Chan, do you think it’s faster for us to conquer Yanmen Pass, or for those holding the King of Northern Mongolia to draw a line on his neck?" Looking at Diao Chan, Gu Changsheng rubbed her forehead and said helplessly, "If everyone in Northern Mongolia were like you, Diao Chan, believe me, I wouldn’t be stuck here! With cannons blazing, attacking cities and pressing forward, Diao Chan, believe old me, I would pull it off a hundred times more exquisitely than you!"
Do they really think everyone in Northern Mongolia is idiotic?
Do they really think no one cares about what’s happening on our side?
Gu Changsheng was confident; she bet that as soon as there’s a hint of major fighting and troop mobilization on her side, the King of Northern Mongolia would be hung on the city wall in no time, without needing her to attack the city!
The King of Northern Mongolia is practically a bare death exemption token!
Moreover, even Gu Changsheng and Zhou Mu are not sure if they’ve really placed the King of Northern Mongolia at Yanmen Pass. What if he’s not?
If the King of Northern Mongolia isn’t at Yanmen Pass, mobilizing troops recklessly would be like alarming the snake from the grass, creating unnecessary trouble for ourselves!
"So, we must be careful in searching for the King of Northern Mongolia. We’ll act as if we don’t know, enter Yanmen Pass under the guise of attending the junior sister’s wedding, and probe in secret!" Zhou Mu took a glance at the aggrieved Diao Chan, shook his head, patted Gu Changsheng’s shoulder lovingly and continued, "If the King of Northern Mongolia is really at Yanmen Pass, our arrival will likely urge them to transfer him to the rear, giving us a sliver of chance to find his whereabouts. If he’s not there, we can adjust our plans, exploring further along the way."
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng nodded, clapped her hands and said, "Correct! There’s a saying: it’s easier to catch thieves for a thousand days than to prevent them for a thousand days! We’ll boldly show up, sneak into the village quietly, avoid gunfire, act covertly, and I refuse to believe they can stay alert forever without leaving any traces! Old me is going to be the difficult thief they can’t guard against; during the trip north, I will certainly snatch the King of Northern Mongolia from their hands! Then, let’s see who dares to make my Borjigin Nian marry that damned Borjigin Lvchi!"
"Sir... Sir, you’re brilliant!" Faced with her master who firmly intended to play the thief, Diao Chan’s rough face was covered with conflicted feelings, and after much struggling, she squeezed out these words.
"Hmm! You finally said something sensible!" Hearing this, Gu Changsheng’s eyebrows instantly relaxed, who doesn’t love compliments? Gu Changsheng couldn’t deny she too likes to be flattered!
"..." Having finally said something sensible, Diao Chan felt embarrassed under everyone’s gaze, at that moment, she was literally speechless before her master!
However, it’s obvious not everyone present was as headstrong as Diao Chan; there were some smart minds among them!
For example, Yue Xilou, and Liu Fengyun...
But Gu Changsheng paid no mind to these matters, for having a plan in mind, she waved her grand sleeves, taking on the role of a leisurely General, and headed out of the discussion hall...
However, just as she stepped out, Gu Changsheng was blocked right on the spot by her son!
The little baozi stared at her with an exposed bald head, shining brightly, and upon seeing his mother come out, he wobbled his short legs toward her, grasping her sleeve and refusing to let go!
"What’s going on here? Punishment too light, and now he’s starting to get all cozy with his mother?" Gu Changsheng glanced at his son clinging to him, raised an eyebrow, and asked with interest.
"Mother, mother, is Aunt Nian really going to marry that big guy Borjigin Lvchi?" The little dumpling blinked his anxious big eyes and hurriedly asked.
"In theory, your Aunt Nian might really do this to save her Father King!" Hearing this, Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but glance at Borjigin Nian’s guest room, and replied with deep meaning.
"Mother, no! Mother, please don’t let Aunt Nian marry that big guy, okay? That big guy is so ugly, and he’s the villain who killed Ning Yi. Mother, you can’t let Aunt Nian marry him, Yaoyao is going to avenge Aunt Ning!" As the little dumpling spoke, a hint of indignation appeared on his chubby little face.
Upon hearing this, Gu Changsheng immediately lowered his head and looked at his son with a mysterious expression...
Gu Changsheng was well aware of who his son’s Aunt Ning was!
Ning Er...
In the past, in Liuzhou City, they accompanied each other day and night, but now, beside the Madam Gu’s ancestral tomb, a lonely grave stands desolate...
In the battle at Hengtang, Ning Er fought fiercely to the death for him, even when his son remembers vengeance at such a young age, how could he not remember for himself?
Borjigin Lvchi!
"My son, you don’t have to worry about that big guy, for I have my own plans. But were you anxiously waiting outside the meeting hall just to break up Aunt Nian’s marriage?" Gu Changsheng’s lips curled slightly, hiding the hatred in his eyes, and when he looked at his son, his eyes were filled with an air of calm and ease, effortlessly shifting the topic.
His son was still young, and Gu Changsheng didn’t want him blinded by hatred!
As for Borjigin Lvchi, a mere clownish worm wasn’t worthy enough to occupy his son’s thoughts, sullying his originally pure and innocent mind!
Of course, Gu Changsheng just thought so, his own son was becoming more mischievous, and it wasn’t really as innocent and pure as he had hoped...
This black-hearted little servant even dared to use a Truth Gu on his own master, Gu Changsheng could hardly imagine what kind of trouble he could stir up behind his back...
Such a rascal!
"Mother, when you say that, what do you mean? Yaoyao is really anxious out of concern for Aunt Nian’s happiness!" The little dumpling sighed, patted his little chest, and spoke with sincerity.
"Oh?" Gu Changsheng raised an eyebrow at his son’s words, cast a sidelong glance at him, and caught the sly look in his eyes, "If I believe you, then I am indeed a wooden club!"
"Uh..." The little dumpling was momentarily dumbfounded upon hearing this.
And Gu Changsheng turned around and walked away.
The little dumpling naturally followed with his short legs!
In a way, the little dumpling was like a sticky plaster in front of Gu Changsheng, showing a very clingy likeness!
"Mother, you must believe Yaoyao, Yaoyao is truly doing it for Aunt Nian!"
"Hmph! I don’t believe it!"
"Mother, Yaoyao sees that the Peacock, Lion, and Tiger and Aunt Nian are quite good together, aren’t they? The Peacock, Lion, and Tiger is the most handsome man in the world, and Aunt Nian is so, so beautiful, they really match well together!"
"So, after your master hung you on the door beam for two days of sun and moon, my child, although I really wanted to believe you were thinking of your master, my intelligence prevents me from being foolish enough to believe you!" Gu Changsheng stopped, looked down at his son, shrugged and said.
Indeed, this little rascal of mine used a Truth Gu on Yue Xilou, at that time, Yue Xilou was trapped in his lost emotions, and naturally didn’t want to bother with him, but upon coming to his senses, how could Yue Xilou let it go easily?
So, unfortunately, that day, after my son had a tough time at the City Lord’s Mansion martial arts training ground, just as he returned to his guest room, he was hoisted up by his master’s cleverly arranged rope! 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦
So he dangled from the door beam for two days and a night, while Yue Xilou leisurely waved his fan below and watched. Even though Gu Changsheng, as a mother, wanted to save her son...
