Zhou Mu was very satisfied with everyone’s reaction, and he couldn’t help but tighten his grip on Gu Changsheng’s hand, a rare smile hanging on his face in front of the crowd.

Gu Changsheng rolled her eyes at him, unable to resist whispering a low reminder, “High and cold, evildoer, high and cold is your style!”

What’s with that charming smile? It’s making her feel embarrassed!

Really now!

Zhou Mu didn’t seem to mind at all, standing tall and noble beside Gu Changsheng.

“Long live His Highness Prince Mu, long live, long live!”

“Long live His Highness Prince Mu, long live, long live!”

After the shock, everyone knelt down and saluted devoutly.

Zhou Mu waved his hand noncommittally, his smiling face undiminished, saying breezily, “Today is the joyous occasion of my beloved Changsheng’s housewarming, and I too am here as a guest to offer congratulations. You need not stand on such ceremony, rise!”

Zhou Mu’s voice was neither loud nor soft, but clearly reached the ears of the kneeling crowd.

“Thank you, His Highness Prince Mu!”

Upon hearing this, smiles also appeared on everyone’s faces.

The beloved of His Highness Prince Mu, the Medicine God Changsheng they revered as the Divine Residence!

One is an unequaled Undefeated War God, the other a once-in-a-millennium Medicine God, a perfect match! A perfect match indeed!

In the midst of everyone’s admiration and envious glances, Zhou Mu slowly turned around, took the scissors from Uncle Song, and spoke warmly as the breeze, “My love, cut the Red Silk Ribbon from the door bolt and open the door to your mansion!”

Gu Changsheng looked at him with a smile and took the scissors.

Looking up, she saw the brilliantly lighted and towering gate, her name hanging in the most conspicuous place, and his royal decree next to it…

Her mansion!

With a swift motion, Gu Changsheng decisively cut the Red Silk Ribbon and pushed open the grand doors of the medical hall.

A rich scent of herbs wafted over, familiar and comforting, causing Gu Changsheng to take a deep breath involuntarily.

“Congratulations on the opening of your mansion, my love. Yuan Bao, present the gifts!” Zhou Mu couldn’t help but chuckle softly as he spoke.

Yuan Bao, who had been waiting at the side, decisively stepped forward two steps with a liu jin-decorated list of gifts in hand, followed by dozens of guards carrying gift boxes.

“On the occasion of your mansion opening, we’ve prepared some modest gifts: the Green Glazed Incense Burner with Mythical Lion Design, Purple Clay Teapot with Purple Gold Glaze and Blue Splatters, Auspicious Red Gold Ruyi Hairpin, Pair of White Jade Lotus Pendants with United Hearts, two dou of North Sea Black Ink Pearls of the highest quality, Fat Jade ‘Longevity’ Character Hairpin, jade relief carving…”

As Yuan Bao recited each item, a guard stepped forward and respectfully presented it.

Uncle Song, watching as each brocade box was handed over, was struck dumb…

The spectators were twitching their eyes and trembling their lips.

This is a “modest gift”?

Each item here is extremely valuable; if these are modest gifts, then what about what they prepared–aren’t they too shabby in comparison?

“Gold filigree with gemstone double phoenix hair ornament, twelve pure silver gilded openwork filigree flower decorations, twelve pairs of inside-out painted clear floral patterned vases, two three-foot-tall South Sea coral trees, two sets of color-glazed gold-threaded submersible incense baskets…”

As Yuan Bao kept talking, the observers’ mouths were wide enough to fit an egg.

This, this, this…

These were priceless treasures!

Envy overwhelmed them, eyes turning red–these were rare treasures that even with ample silver one might not obtain!

Gu Changsheng watched as Yuan Bao’s mouth opened and closed non-stop, prattling on, then glanced at the mountain-high pile of gift boxes in front of Uncle Song, and turned to look at Zhou Mu with a twitching mouth corner.

“Are you moving in?”

Could it be that he moved the entire Treasure Pavilion from the County Prince’s Mansion here?

Such a grand gesture!

She loved it!

“I really do want to move here, but I just don’t know if my love…” Zhou Mu turned his head, his smile wicked and full of temptation.

“Dream on! Leave the gifts, but you’re not staying!” Gu Changsheng promptly interrupted him.

This is Liuzhou City; if she lets Zhou Mu stay in her mansion, what would that look like?

Without a formal engagement, wouldn’t Zhou Mu become her uninvited guest?

No way! Let her enjoy some peace and the pleasure of freedom for a while!

“Alas, my love is truly heartless and unfeeling…” Zhou Mu immediately adopted a pitiful tone like a neglected wife, seemingly abandoned and complaining in a whining voice.

Seeing this, Gu Changsheng glared, “Stop it, so many people are watching!”

High and cold, high and cold! Where did the high and cold Iceberg Handsome Man Zhou Mu she knew go? Did he turn into bubbles and disappear?

Gu Changsheng really wanted to say she didn’t recognize the current Zhou Mu, truly!

“So what if they’re watching, I’m talking to my love; if anyone dares to gossip, I’ll cut out his tongue,” Zhou Mu’s eyes flashed coldly for a moment, then returned to a gentle smiling expression.

“Get out of here, what happened to non-violence and peaceful non-cooperation, huh?” Gu Changsheng responded resentfully, pinching his hand sharply.

As the two whispered to each other as if no one else was there, Yuan Bao, who had been reciting the list until his mouth was dry and his tongue sore, flipped through the remaining pages with hands ready to weep and stopped talking, looking at the two above with a plea, “My Lord, Lady Changsheng, there’s a lot more, if I continue like this, it won’t be finished even when it gets dark, please have mercy on me…”

“Hehe…” Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but cover her mouth and laugh upon hearing this.

Zhou Mu watched her laugh, beautiful as a blooming flower, his lips curving up slightly, and he waved his hand toward Yuan Bao.

Yuan Bao immediately stuffed the thick list of gifts into Uncle Song’s arms as if he had received a great pardon, “It’s all here, all of it; you look at it yourself, I can’t finish reading!”

The onlookers watching this scene were filled with envy, their eyes reddened and hearts pounding.

“`

Finally, eyes are opened!

Leading Gu Changsheng by the hand, Zhou Mu fluttered his purple sleeve and spoke again, “I decree that on the occasion of my beloved Changsheng’s establishment of her office, Puzhou joins in celebration. Let the order be passed down, exempting all lands under my domain from annual taxes and levies for three years!”

“Ah!”

“Wow!”

“Godfather!”

“Long live!”

After successive gasps and exclamations, the onlookers in Liuzhou City smiled so widely that they couldn’t close their mouths, and they knelt down to shout in unison.

“Long live His Highness Prince Mu, long live long life; long live Lady Changsheng, long live long life!”

“Thank you, Your Highness Prince Mu, thank you, Lady Changsheng!”

The voices were so loud, they nearly lifted the roof off.

Zhou Mu noncommittally waved his sleeve, signaling them to rise.

Once standing again, the people hugged each other excitedly, some leaping high with joy–the exemption from three years of taxes and levies, such prosperous times ahead!

Lady Changsheng establishing her office, truly a blessing from heaven!

Zhou Mu and Gu Changsheng looked into each other’s eyes, both filled with affection.

As the crowd’s excitement had not yet subsided, suddenly a commotion arose in the distance, stirring unrest among the people.

“Oh my goodness!”

“So beautiful!”

“A fairy! A fairy has descended to the mortal realm!”

“Look, look, the fairy is walking this way!”

Amidst the exclamations, Gu Changsheng’s brows furrowed slightly, and she murmured doubtfully to Zhou Mu, “Could it be the Flower Peacock from Yue Xilou? That shouldn’t be, I had asked him to bring the Little Monk into the mansion early this morning to choose a room…”

Zhou Mu directed his gaze toward the far-off disturbance, his brow also slightly furrowed.

Yuan Bao, seeing this, suddenly felt a bad premonition.

A fairy? A fairy! Could it be…

Goodness! This is not going to be good!

“Such a grand scene, could it be that someone has come to make trouble?” Gu Changsheng said, already rubbing her hands together in impatience.

Oh dear, her fiery temper! Should there be such irreverent persons, let them not blame her, Gu Changsheng, for showing no mercy as she fiercely strikes in all directions, a warning to the others!

A good name may endear, but a fearsome one keeps at bay.

Gu Changsheng felt that her perfect performance lay in embodying both beauty and ferocity.

“Lady Changsheng, what are you dreaming about in broad daylight? His Lordship is right beside you, who would be so blind as to make trouble here?” Inwardly nervous, Yuan Bao instinctively retorted.

But truly, he was not confident at all!

If it was indeed the person he had in mind, then perhaps they’ve come with ill intent!

Gu Changsheng glanced at the towering Buddha beside her, Zhou Mu; Yuan Bao made sense–how could anyone dare to create a scene on his turf, right next to him? That would be illogical, even in seeking one’s own doom!

Thus, all Gu Changsheng could do was stand on her tiptoes, trying her best to peer into the distance.

On Tongji Street, the crowded masses seemed to be slowly torn open at one corner, where a line of figures passed, the people willingly stepping aside to make way for them.

Gu Changsheng clearly saw the astonished faces in the crowd.

She had just seen such expressions…

Huo Shuixian, followed by several maids and house servants, walked with a dignified grace.

Countless onlookers lost their hearts to her, their gasps of admiration and praise incessant…

This was her charm, Huo Shuixian’s, turning the world upside down wherever she went!

Only she was worthy of Zhou Mu, dazzling and divine. Since Brother Mu had not been disfigured, why should she settle for anyone else?

Brother Mu was hers, hers alone, and anyone who dared to encroach would meet their death at her hands!

The disturbance drew closer, and Zhou Mu, with his powerful eyesight, was the first to see the newcomers, his face inadvertently stiffening.

Gu Changsheng felt the hand holding hers tighten, and she looked at him quizzically, noting the change in his expression.

“What’s this now? Who could this great Buddha be, stirring even you?” Gu Changsheng turned with uncertainty and saw the group approaching.

There, a woman in red, her red silk garment as dazzling as fire, excessively captivating, attracting everyone’s attention.

“Ha! Dressed alike!” Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of the red attire.

Wasn’t it a case of identical dress? She, Gu Changsheng, was wearing a red outfit herself!

Yuan Bao, upon seeing the newcomer, stomped his foot in annoyance. It’s done for, whatever you fear comes upon you, and indeed, it was Miss Huo of the Huo Family who had arrived!

What to do now?

But Gu Changsheng was unaware of these matters, her gaze fixed on the approaching woman; the red Luo tasseled skirt fluttered with the breeze, swaying elegantly, her bearing so graceful as if she were a celestial being. The flying fairy hairbun seemed ready to soar, and her beauty was indeed marvelous–delicate features, perfect and flawless as if bestowed by the creator, not of this world!

She seemed fragile as a willow in the breeze, a touch of sorrow between her brows, tugging at the heartstrings.

Even Gu Changsheng couldn’t help but inwardly sigh in admiration–the woman was a stunning beauty that could topple empires!

After gazing at her for a couple more moments, Gu Changsheng turned her head to Zhou Mu and smiled teasingly, “A Sister Lin has fallen from the sky; is she also here to congratulate me on the establishment of my office?”
