"Alright! Thank you, Master, for your guidance!"

Dou Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead and expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

Watching Gu Lan leave for the exam, he turned to instruct the yamen runners behind him, "You, go to the nearby Mount Dengyun, and invite a few immortal sect elders to help. Also, find the Langzhou Commander, request an order to mobilize the troops! Quickly!"

"Yes!"

...

Time passed, seven days went by.

Langzhou yamen continued patrolling every day, but they still hadn\'t caught the murderer. Even with the help of immortal sect elders and the presence of Ma Bo, who was close to the King Realm, there were still no clues.

What was even more frightening was that every night, people continued to be killed!

The victims had the exact same appearance as the previous ones—torn clothes, blood flowing everywhere, a pitiful scene!

Facing the anxiety of the common people and the furious Ma Bo, Doufu was anxious and incredibly haggard!

On this day, as the Autumn Examination was about to conclude, Gu Lan handed in all his blank exam papers. Walking out of the Chief Secretary\'s office under the astonished gaze of the officials, he felt satisfied.

During these days, he had been staying in the courtyard of the Lin family. Initially, Gu Lan and Old Yang took care of the recovering Lin Tan\'er. However, later on, Lin Tan\'er felt embarrassed and realized that the medicine she was taking daily was expensive. She took the initiative to propose being Gu Lan\'s maid, wanting to repay her debts.

To take in the Fated Lady had great temptation, but Gu Lan resolutely declined, "Miss Tan\'er, you can\'t remember many things right now. If I let you serve me at this moment, it would be taking advantage of your vulnerable state. Moreover, I have a family."

Thinking of his wife, Gu Lan felt that this underdeveloped and delicate girl was just so so.

Finally, under the persuasion of the kind-hearted Old Yang, it was agreed that Lin Tan\'er would stay in Gu Residence temporarily and help with some ordinary chores.

...

The last day of the Autumn Examination.

At dusk.

Mu Yuyan and Liu Yexi finally returned to Langzhou City.

Along the way, they had seen the fireworks set up for tonight\'s temple fair in Langzhou to celebrate the completion of the exams.

Of course!

Because the man-eating demonic beast had not been found, this year Dou Fu brought many patrol guards and soldiers to watch over various places at the temple fair.

Hearing about this, Mu Yuyan, who was already worried, became even more uneasy.

Gu Residence.

Mu Yuyan instructed Liu Yexi to prepare dinner and decided to go out to find Gu Lan herself.

She also hoped to see if she could track down and kill the man-eating demonic beast that had been plaguing the people of Langzhou these past few days.

But as soon as she reached the doorway, three figures appeared timely at the end of Pear Blossom Lane, walking slowly towards her.

In the middle was a figure in green clothes, with an ethereal temperament and starry eyes—Gu Lan. On both sides were Old Yang and Lin Tan\'er, who had returned to the residence.

Mu Yuyan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Gu Lan safe. However, due to the mutual attraction between beauties, her gaze involuntarily shifted to Lin Tan\'er.

"Yuyan!"

After a whole Autumn Examination, Gu Lan returned home and was greeted by his beautiful wife, putting him in a great mood.

"Master Gu, is this Miss Lin?"

Mu Yuyan waited quietly for Gu Lan to approach before asking with a charming face.

"Why are you... oh, right! You two know each other."

Gu Lan was initially a bit puzzled but suddenly remembered that Mu Yuyan should have met her when they were doing tea business with the Lin family last year, so she recognized her.

"Yes, she is Lin Tan\'er."

Gu Lan smiled and explained, "She will probably work in our house from now on. Her brother entrusted her to me before he left."

"However, Tan\'er has recently recovered from a long illness and has forgotten most of her memories, so she may not recognize you."

"Long illness recovery? Memory loss?"

Mu Yuyan was momentarily stunned. Looking at Lin Tan\'er, she indeed seemed somewhat unfamiliar and confused when gazing into her eyes. She looked delicate, helping Gu Lan and Old Yang carry luggage, her figure appearing fragile.

"Quickly, call Madam."

Old Yang unexpectedly urged her, reminding her in a low voice.

"Oh, oh."

Just as Mu Yuyan was admiring the beautiful face of this sister she had never seen before, Lin Tan\'er suddenly came back to her senses. She obediently bowed towards Mu Yuyan and softly said, "Tan\'er pay my respects to Madam."

Realizing that this girl came from a humble background, now also suffering from memory loss, Mu Yuyan couldn\'t help but feel a bit sorry.

She gently said, "Master Lin is a friend of Master Gu, and Tan\'er and I already know each other. No need to be so polite, just call me sister."

Upon hearing this, Lin Tan\'er\'s watery eyes blinked, feeling that this beautiful sister in front of her was amiable and kind. Grinning, she said, "Thank you, sister, for taking me in."

Mu Yuyan nodded and then furrowed her brows, saying, "Old Yang, Tan\'er is a guest of Gu Residence. How can you let her carry luggage?"

Old Yang was caught off guard and hesitated, saying awkwardly, "No, Madam, I\'m innocent..."

"No, sister, please don\'t misunderstand Uncle Yang."

Lin Tan\'er, hearing Mu Yuyan scold Old Yang, quickly explained, "Master bought a lot of medicine for my illness, and I volunteered to do it. I\'ll be working in Gu Residence from now on and will try to repay Master\'s money..."

Hearing this, Mu Yuyan glanced at Gu Lan beside her, and her expression finally softened.

"Alright, since it\'s like this... Tonight, let Yexi tidy up the West Wing, and Tan\'er will stay at the Gu Residence."

Seeing this scene, Gu Lan breathed a sigh of relief!

Although he felt justified, he was genuinely worried. Taking Lin Tan\'er into Gu Residence might upset his wife.

Fortunately!

The imagined battlefield of beautiful women repelling each other did not occur.

Even due to their past acquaintance and Lin family\'s pitiable circumstances, they got along quite harmoniously.

Lin Tan\'er even positioned herself properly, recognizing her role as a servant, repaying her debts and naturally falling into the background. They walked into the Residence together.

Old Yang, seeing smoke rising from the kitchen, went straight to help Liu Yexi prepare dinner. Lin Tan\'er followed suit.

In the corridor leading to the main hall, only Gu Lan and Mu Yuyan remained at the moment.

"Darling, do you still remember the promise you made to me before the Autumn Examination? After dinner, let\'s go to the temple fair?"

Mu Yuyan smiled charmingly and eagerly.

For the female Emperor, who had seen all the splendors of the world, the city\'s temple fair was not particularly interesting. What attracted her was being able to go together with Gu Lan.

"Of course, when did I ever break my promise, my love?"

As the crescent moon began to rise, Gu Lan smiled and gently embraced her.

"Tonight, the moonlight will surely be beautiful."

"Yes."

...

"Old Yang! Tonight, you and Yexi take Tan\'er out to have some fun. Show her the grand scene of the temple fair!"

Gu Lan remembered something and called out to the kitchen.

"Huh? Master, aren\'t you joining us?"

Old Yang popped his head out from the kitchen.

"No."

Gu Lan said lightly.

Then, unexpectedly, before Mu Yuyan could react, he lowered his head and gently kissed her cherry lips.

"Mmm~"

Someone is still watching... Mu Yuyan widened her beautiful eyes, her face instantly blushing. However, after a moment, her delicate body softened.

After a brief separation, he really wanted to have some time alone... Let him be a bit unruly for a while, hmph!

Mu Yuyan was no longer embarrassed and gradually closed her eyes to enjoy the kiss. Meanwhile, Old Yang, who unexpectedly ate a mouthful of dog food, smirked and said, "Oh! Master doesn\'t want us to tag along, afraid we\'ll be the third wheel!"

Moonlight spilled into the courtyard, making the female Emperor\'s cheeks even redder.
