Time Travel: The Best Doctor in Ancient Times
Chapter 1612 - 1242: The Southern Emperor’s Grand Gesture!
Gu Changsheng felt that if Borjigin Nian really had some accident, damn it, she’d regret it for the rest of her life!
For the rest of her life, even eating meat probably wouldn’t taste like a damn thing!
So this time, Gu Changsheng rammed the door with everything she had!
"Bang!"
As expected, in the next instant, the door exploded into pieces!
"Borjigin Nian! Borjigin Nian..."
Along with the flying door boards, Gu Changsheng charged straight in, shouting Borjigin Nian’s name as she tumbled headfirst into the room...
"Gu Changsheng! What the hell are you doing! My makeup!"
A sharp, girlish rebuke rang out right above Gu Changsheng’s head!
Steadying herself, Gu Changsheng only felt that in her outstretched hands were two soft, warm, squishy things...
Hearing that voice, Gu Changsheng instinctively raised her head and glanced up...
"Oh! You’re not dead!"
Borjigin Nian’s deep, exotic features came into Gu Changsheng’s line of sight, and Gu Changsheng blurted that out on reflex.
"You’re the one who’s dead! Can’t you wish granny something good for once! Gu Changsheng! Get your claws off granny!" At her words, Borjigin Nian’s little face instantly darkened; her gaze dropped, slid to her own chest, then she glared at Gu Changsheng and spoke through gritted teeth.
"Huh?"
Gu Changsheng froze, then lowered her head to look at her own hands...
That one look scared her enough that she yanked her hands back at once!
Oh my god!
She’d just been thinking, why were there two soft, warm, squishy things there...
Turns out, while she wasn’t paying attention, she’d actually pulled a damn pervy move!
"Um, Borjigin Nian, I didn’t do it on purpose. I was worried about you, that’s why I smashed the door and came in. Who knew I’d crash right into you. I really didn’t mean to attack your chest. I’m not into women, don’t worry!"
Right now Gu Changsheng didn’t even have the guts to look at Borjigin Nian’s face.
Damn it, at this moment she really wanted to grab Luoh Yurou and Li Ji and ask them: when you two women are together flirting and making out, touching here and there, you really don’t feel awkward? Seriously not awkward?
She’d only grabbed a handful out of nowhere, so why did it feel like she’d been bitten by an ant or something?
"..." Borjigin Nian looked at Gu Changsheng, who was standing in front of her with her head lowered, and her pretty little face went green, then white. She rolled her eyes at her and couldn’t even be bothered to respond.
Seeing Borjigin Nian ignore her, Gu Changsheng got even more anxious. Having done something wrong and clearly in the wrong, Gu Changsheng felt she had to say something to salvage a bit of her dignity, so...
"Borjigin Nian, I gotta say, your, uh, assets are pretty impressive. The feel in the hand is top-notch!"
"Gu Changsheng!" This time Borjigin Nian was truly grinding her teeth. She shot Gu Changsheng a furious glare, then turned around and strode toward the door...
"Heh heh..." Only then did Gu Changsheng look up with a grin, watching Borjigin Nian’s back, a glint flickering through her Phoenix Eyes...
This was, to Gu Changsheng, like the first time in years she’d seen Borjigin Nian so elaborately dressed up!
The Northern Mongolian clothes were different from those of the Central Plains, mostly fur, paired with bright, vivid colors...
Right now, Borjigin Nian was in a short, practical outfit trimmed with snow fox fur. All over the outfit were brightly colored Pearls and Jades for decoration. On her head, atop a Pearl Crown, hung several pompoms made of white fox fur, half-hidden in her long braided hair, making her look extraordinarily gorgeous! 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
It carried a kind of savage beauty distinct from both the Central Plains and the Southern Border, and at the same time, a touch of stately elegance!
So this was the attire of a Princess of Northern Mongolian?
Gu Changsheng had always known that Borjigin Nian had a set of clothes in her luggage that she’d never worn before, but she hadn’t expected the effect, once worn, to be this perfect!
Borjigin Nian’s figure was tall and slender, faintly more outstanding than any other woman present. Now that she was all dressed up, she actually had a bit of an imposing, naturally authoritative air about her!
"Senior Brother, I’m going. You don’t need to worry about me!" Borjigin Nian walked out of the guest room, went straight up to Zhou Mu, raised her right hand to her chest, and gave a solemn, dignified Northern Mongolian salute as she spoke in a low voice.
Zhou Mu looked at the elaborately dressed Borjigin Nian, his face like that of a Divine Residence, full of gentle warmth. He nodded to her. "Go. We’ll be traveling with you, it’s just that Borjigin Lvchi has never allowed us to be alone with you, so..."
"You have to take good care of yourself!"
"Mm!" Hearing Zhou Mu say this, Borjigin Nian nodded with a smile, then turned and walked out!
Not far away, Borjigin Lvchi was lying on a stretcher being carried by a group of Attendants, gazing over in this direction from afar.
Gu Changsheng watched Borjigin Nian’s departing back, walked forward a few steps to stand beside Zhou Mu, and slowly said, "I actually kept overlooking this—she’s the Princess of Northern Mongolian, the only Legitimate Princess of Northern Mongolian! And you know what, with just a bit of dressing up like that, she really does have some of that regal air!"
"Mm." Hearing this, Zhou Mu nodded, but in the gaze she cast at Borjigin Nian, there was a faint trace of worry.
Gu Changsheng tilted her head, gave her own evildoer a look, then arched a brow and said, "Since she already has the dignity of the Princess of Northern Mongolian, how can she lack the bearing of the Princess of Northern Mongolian? Let us give her a bit of momentum then!"
As she spoke, Gu Changsheng beckoned to the people behind her. Seeing Beauty Sai and Li Ji step forward, the corner of her lips hooked up, her brows curved, and she couldn’t help glancing again in the direction where Borjigin Nian had left. "In that case, I’ll trouble you two. Borjigin Nian and I have a life-and-death bond; I, Gu Changsheng, will entrust her to you both."
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry!"
"Your Majesty, rest assured!"
Beauty Sai and Li Ji bowed their heads at once and answered.
While they were eating, Gu Changsheng had already asked Beauty Sai and Li Ji, and they had gladly agreed.
Gu Changsheng would never allow Borjigin Nian to be taken away by Borjigin Lvchi alone, fighting single-handedly. Even if they themselves were traveling alongside, it still wouldn’t do!
If she couldn’t be at Borjigin Nian’s side, Gu Changsheng had no way to guarantee her safety!
"This time, I’ll have to wrong you two a bit." Toward two Masters of the Primordial Transformative Realm, Gu Changsheng still showed ample respect.
Hearing Gu Changsheng say this, Li Ji and Beauty Sai immediately shook their heads.
Li Ji turned back and glanced toward Luoh Yurou. Seeing her smiling faintly and waving at herself, she couldn’t help looking back at Gu Changsheng again, lowered her head, and said, "Your Majesty, I must trouble you to take good care of Rourou."
"Rest easy." Gu Changsheng followed Li Ji’s line of sight and glanced at Luoh Yurou. Although, deep down, the love between two women still felt a bit strange to her, she respected their choice, so she replied without the slightest hesitation.
Hearing this, Li Ji was completely at ease.
At this moment, Borjigin Nian was almost at the dispatch procession of Borjigin Lvchi and turned back toward Gu Changsheng’s side.
Their gazes met in midair. Gu Changsheng smiled at Borjigin Nian, then shifted her eyes to Borjigin Lvchi, who was slumped crookedly in the wheelchair. A flash of disdain passed through her Phoenix Eyes; she waved her hand broadly and said in a deep voice, "Borjigin Nian, exalted as the Princess of Northern Mongolian, naturally ought to have the majesty befitting the Princess of Northern Mongolian!"
As she said this, Gu Changsheng gave Beauty Sai and Li Ji a look and swept her sleeves again. "Go."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Beauty Sai and Li Ji answered.
In the very next instant, over a dozen phantoms flickered into view, with Beauty Sai and Li Ji standing at their head, quickly heading out in a rush to fall in behind Borjigin Nian!
When Spirit Bodies appear, they are without doubt Masters of the Transformative Realm!
Lying in his wheelchair, the moment Borjigin Lvchi saw Beauty Sai and Li Ji act like this, shock immediately surfaced on his face.
Even in Northern Mongolian, a Master of the Transformative Realm was one in tens of thousands!
However, in the next breath, it was as if Borjigin Lvchi had thought of something; the tension on his face relaxed again.
On Gu Changsheng’s side, Borjigin Lvchi’s expression was fully taken in. A look of realization flashed through her Phoenix Eyes.
As expected!
So Borjigin Lvchi really did have an absolute guard at his side!
It seemed that letting Beauty Sai and Li Ji accompany Borjigin Nian had been the right call!
As for Borjigin Nian, looking at the two who appeared behind her and put away their Spirit Bodies, her expression could only be described as horrified!
She had been shut indoors, so of course she didn’t know when Gu Changsheng had gained two Masters of the Transformative Realm at her side. This surprised Borjigin Nian far too much!
Borjigin Lvchi just watched as Beauty Sai and Li Ji flanked Borjigin Nian. On his rough face, the corners of his mouth curved with mocking amusement as he looked at Gu Changsheng from afar. "The Southern Emperor truly is generous. At one move, you send two Masters of the Transformative Realm to guard her—this really has broadened Lvchi’s horizons!"
"You flatter me, you flatter me! Someone’s behavior is so questionable that I have every reason to take precautions on my side." Gu Changsheng’s bright little face broke into a smile as she answered, sounding very matter-of-fact.
"You—!" At this, Borjigin Lvchi’s face darkened. He tried to stand, only to realize his body was nothing but a pile of rotten mud, completely powerless. The look he cast at the culprit who had reduced him to this state grew particularly ferocious. "Heh. Southern Emperor, don’t get cocky. I hope once you set foot on my Northern Mongolian territory, you can still keep this attitude! We’ll be going on ahead, then, and await Your Majesty’s august arrival!"
Borjigin Lvchi was not one to dither. With a turn of phrase, he said to the attendants at his side, "Invite Princess Nian into the Palanquin. We depart!"
"Yes!" The Attendant behind Borjigin Lvchi responded at once.
Seeing this, watching Borjigin Nian walk toward the carriage, Gu Changsheng immediately took a step forward.
"Gu Changsheng..." At the edge of the carriage, Borjigin Nian turned back.
"Borjigin Nian, don’t be afraid. We’ll be right behind your procession; I’ll be with you all the way!" Seeing this, Gu Changsheng immediately raised her voice to reassure her. "Trust us—I’ll stay with you."
