A family of widows, all shouldered, raising the dragon flag!

"Grandma, don't you feel something's wrong?"

"It's alright, I'll accompany you to the palace today!"

After saying this, the old lady put on her first-rank imperial decree attire once again.

"Grandmother, before I go, there's something I actually want to tell you."

Qin Ze's words made the old lady's eyes light up.

Yesterday, Liu Jinghong told her everything without missing a single word.

She even helped Liu Jinghong realize her own plans.

Looking back now, it must have been Liu Jinghong's scheme that succeeded.

She couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation.

"But did your senior reward you again?"

"Um!"

Seeing Qin Ze about to take it out of his pocket again.

She quickly blocked out her surroundings.

A transparent light shield enveloped the two of them.

"What is it this time?"

"Grandmother, please look!"

As he spoke, he took out a purple jade glass box.

Just by looking at the box, the old lady sensed that it was extraordinary, even better than the top-grade pills from last time.

Gently open the box.

A rich fragrance wafted out, and the pill in the jade box seemed to come alive, sprouting wings and about to fly away.

The old lady was greatly alarmed by this scene.

A seal sealed the jade box.

His face was filled with shock and solemnity.

His face paled! His voice trembled violently!

"This...this is a divine item?"

"How could there still be elixirs of divine quality in this world?"

Qin Ze hadn't expected the pills given by the system to be so powerful that they even flew away.

For a fleeting moment, he felt that if the old lady hadn't been there, the celestial elixir he had just obtained would have flown away.

"Grandmother, this was given to me by our elders."

"After all, Ningzhi comes from a scholarly family, and my recitation of 'Ode to the Goddess of the Luo River' yesterday completely won her over."

"Most importantly, she has 100% affection for me, so the reward from my senior will naturally be stronger."

"Favorability?"

The old lady looked completely puzzled!

"That's right, it's exactly the kind of telepathic connection my grandson described. Senior, can you help me see the affection my future wife has for him?"

Listening to Qin Ze's explanation.

The old lady calmed herself down.

She gave Qin Ze a deep look.

"Besides increasing favorability, is there anything else that can increase the magnitude of the rewards?"

"Talent, bloodline, looks—those things!"

The old lady pondered for a while.

"So, the more beautiful, the better the aptitude, and the purer the bloodline, the greater the reward from the senior?"

"right!"

Qin Ze gave an affirmative answer.

For a fleeting moment, the old lady even considered using her status to forcefully send the other sisters-in-law into Qin Ze's room.

"Grandmother, the senior also gave us a Heaven-rank weapon, a Heaven-rank spear technique, and a fetal protection pill!"

"What?!"

Hearing about so many rewards, and that even the lowest-ranking ones were Heaven-level, the old lady was completely unsettled.

"If the woman from that foreign vassal state is exceptionally talented and beautiful, Grandmother wouldn't mind forcibly taking her for you!"

At this moment, the old lady's aura changed.

That overwhelming aura was so domineering that he almost wanted to use his internal energy to resist it.

You know, the old lady used to rarely leave the mansion, but now she's personally going to choose a wife for him!

They still made their stance very domineering—to forcibly seize it!

"Grandma, don't worry!"

"This 'Free and Easy Pill' was prepared for you by your senior!"

"Prepared for me?"

The old lady's eyes were filled with disbelief.

"That's right, it's a real waste to have such a precious elixir in my grandson's hands."

"But Grandmother is different. This elixir can help you improve, which is of extraordinary significance to the Qin family!"

"As the elders said, the future of the Qin family belongs to the grandchildren; the present of the Qin family belongs to you."

Qin Ze's explanation greatly moved the old lady.

"Alright, alright, tell the senior that as long as I am here, no one can sever the bloodline of the Qin family."

"From now on, you just focus on having many children and grandchildren; leave the rest to me!"

Domineering!

confidence!

Qin Ze handed the purple jade glass box to the old lady.

The old lady was deeply moved.

Right now!

Qin Ze was more important to her than anything else, including her own old life.

……

Not long after.

The number of people around the palace and the training ground today is even greater than yesterday.

Especially after hearing the Great Zhou Emperor say that Qin Ze would also participate in the martial arts battle today.

The young talents and beautiful women of the entire capital city were eager to catch a glimpse of Qin Ze's charm.

Moreover, many wealthy and powerful families brought their most beautiful daughters with them, not for any other reason than to establish some connection with the Qin family.

If they could marry Qin Ze, let alone a legal wife, even a concubine would elevate their family's status.

They understand the principle that even a dying camel is better than a horse.

Especially Qin Ze's performance yesterday, even some prominent families have changed their views on the Qin family.

Qin Ze's talent is unparalleled!

Along the way, Qin Ze and the old lady were blocked wherever they went.

Just to see Qin Ze, or even just to say a few words to him.

That display made Qin Ze feel ashamed.

The old lady, however, had a smile in her eyes.

She was proud of her outstanding grandson.

But when she thought of her son who died in battle and her other grandsons, the smile in the old lady's eyes faded considerably.

"Old Madam Qin has arrived!"

"Sage of Literature, Qin Ze has arrived!"

The phrase "sage of literature" startled Qin Ze.

Before he could refuse the title, the talented men and beautiful women around the training ground cheered.

"Literary Saint!"

"Literary Saint!"

The earth-shattering shouts made Qin Ze swallow back the words he was about to say.

Emperor Renzong looked at Qin Ze's arrival with a smile in his eyes.

Today, he is determined to bring down this prodigy of the Qin family.

The old lady sensed Zhou Renzong's gaze from afar and immediately led Qin Ze forward!

"This old woman pays her respects to Your Majesty!"

"Your subject pays his respects to Your Majesty!"

"Rise immediately, Madam, you are making me extremely uncomfortable. The late Emperor said that you are not allowed to bow before the Emperor!"

These words made the old lady smile.

"Your Majesty, although my Qin family is a family of military generals, we also understand the principles of proper conduct between ruler and subject, father and son. You are the emperor, how can we not pay our respects!"

This explanation greatly pleased Emperor Renzong of Zhou.

"Grandma, please take a seat. If your Qin family's prodigy wins the duel, I will bestow another reward upon him!"

"Oh? May I ask, Your Majesty, what is the purpose of this reward...?"
