Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

"As you command!"

Zhao Wu waved his hand, and several imperial guards dragged the body away like a dead dog.

Lin Mo walked up the dragon steps again, sat on the dragon throne, and looked down at the trembling crowd below.

"I established the imperial examination system to select talents for governing the country, not to raise ungrateful wretches."

Lin Mo's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

"As long as you serve loyally, I will grant you high-ranking positions, generous salaries, and even the chance to achieve immortality. But if anyone dares to cause trouble behind my back..."

Lin Mo sneered.

"This is what will happen to these three people."

"We, your humble servants, swear to serve Your Majesty to the death! We would gladly die for you!"

The civil and military officials and the scholars who had come to offer their tribute shouted in unison, their voices reverberating throughout the hall.

In this imperial examination, Lin Mo not only selected a group of capable ministers such as Wei Zheng, but also used swift and decisive measures to completely crush the last counterattack of the aristocratic families.

From this moment on, the court of Daqian truly became a unified entity, belonging solely to Lin Mo.

After the court session ended.

Lin Mo walked out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony alone, stood on the high white jade steps, and looked down at the vast and prosperous capital city.

A gentle breeze rustled the dark gold dragon robe.

Li Dequan tiptoed up behind Lin Mo and handed him a cup of hot tea.

"My lord, now that the imperial examinations are over, 300,000 troops are ready to go, and the Heavenly Net covers the entire land. The Great Qian Empire is now as solid as a rock."

Lin Mo took the teacup but didn't drink it. Instead, he looked up at the cloudless sky.

His gaze seemed to pierce through the clouds, revealing the interdimensional passage that Luo Xue had forcibly opened and then severed.

They are indeed invincible in the mortal realm.

He had achieved the ultimate in wealth, power, beautiful women, and military power.

However, the crashed Xuan Tian Sect spirit boat, Luo Xue who escaped back to the Upper Realm, and the "Three Realms Harem" panel that was unlocked after the system upgrade...

Everything reminded him that the world was far more than the territory before him.

Early autumn in the Daqian calendar.

More than half a month has passed since the imperial examination.

Under Lin Mo's iron-fisted rule and the national policy of "making cultivation commonplace," the entire Great Qian Dynasty operated like a sophisticated machine.

The remnants of powerful clans were eradicated, and a 300,000-strong army of cultivators guarded the borders, allowing the people of the land to live in peace and prosperity.

A rare day of leisure.

Lin Mo took off his heavy, dark gold dragon robe and changed into a loose and comfortable moon-white casual outfit. He strolled to the imperial garden in the inner palace.

The sun is just right, the breeze is not dry.

In the huge pavilion beside Taiye Pond, a group of stunning beauties were gathered at this moment.

"Slow down, Qingyue, your body is getting heavier and heavier. Sit on the soft couch."

As soon as Lin Mo stepped into the pavilion, he quickly walked to Su Qingyue's side and carefully helped her sit down.

Su Qingyue is now nine months pregnant, and her once flat belly is now swollen.

She wore a loose, light gold palace dress, radiating a gentle and sacred maternal glow.

"My husband, I'm not that delicate. I've soaked in the Immortal Pool of Creation before, so I'm quite healthy."

Su Qingyue smiled gently and leaned into Lin Mo's arms.

Lin Mo reached out and touched her round belly, feeling the strong heartbeat of the little life inside, and couldn't help but smile wildly.

"Even if she's healthy, she's still pregnant. My first child, Lin Mo's child, absolutely cannot have any mishaps."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a piercing metallic scraping sound came from the side.

"Clang!"

Qin Ruxue was dressed in a fiery red outfit, with a small belly sticking out, and she was even holding the dark gold Lianhua sword in her hand, frantically rubbing it against a whetstone.

"Oh my goodness!"

Lin Mo was startled and rushed over to snatch the sword from her hand.

"You've been pregnant for months! And you're still wielding knives and guns every day! What if you hurt your back?"

Qin Ruxue pouted unconvinced and glared at Lin Mo.

"Husband, what do you know? This is called prenatal education! I possess the Xuanhuang Battle Physique; this child is destined to lead troops into battle."

"I need to let him smell the rust of metal from a young age, and feel the ruthless decisiveness within the sword's aura!"

"Prenatal education my ass!"

Lin Mo gave Qin Ruxue a light tap on the nose, clearly annoyed.

"From today onwards, your sword is confiscated. Before you give birth, if you dare touch a piece of metal, I'll punish you with family discipline in bed!"

Upon hearing the words "family rules," Qin Ruxue's usually imposing face instantly turned red to her ears, and she spat out a curse.

"shameless!"

"Crackling and popping..."

In the corner, Liu Yiyi sat at a rosewood table, rapidly moving the abacus beads, her eyes even gleaming with golden light.

"Yiyi, what kind of big deal is this?"

Lin Mo walked over and hugged her from behind.

Without even looking up, Liu Yiyi pointed to a long string of zeros in the ledger and said excitedly.

"My husband, I'm calculating how many gifts we'll receive at our little ones' one-month celebration!"

"I plan to launch a limited edition of the 'Prince's Full Moon Commemorative Qi-Boosting Powder' at the Royal Trading Company, with the price increased tenfold."

"This single wave alone could double the national treasury's silver reserves!"

Lin Mo was so shocked by what he heard that he kept gnashing his teeth.

Good heavens, this woman is obsessed with money; she's even using her unborn child for scarcity marketing.

"Alright, alright, you can handle things as you see fit, you're the God of Wealth of the Great Qian Dynasty."

Lin Mo smiled and shook his head. As soon as he turned around, he saw Gu Ling'er running over in a flurry of activity, holding a blueprint.

"Husband, husband! Look at the gift I designed for the baby's one-month celebration!"

Gu Ling'er, with her pregnant belly, ran with a wobbly gait.

Lin Mo took the blueprints and almost fainted when he saw them.

The blueprints depicted a miniature version of a "pseudo-energy destruction cannon," with the following label next to it:

It has a diameter of three inches, can be filled with low-grade spirit stones, and has a range of one mile.

"You call this a toy?!"

Lin Mo's eyes widened.

"Do you want him to hunt birds in the imperial garden, or do you want him to tear down the palace?"

"Oh, it's for self-defense! Boys always have a bit of a fear of not having enough firepower."

Gu Ling'er stuck out her tongue, trying to get away with being cute.

"No way! I'm confiscating these blueprints."

Lin Mo ruthlessly stuffed the blueprints into his pocket.

"Husband, have something to eat."

Gu Meng'er walked over carrying a plate of crystal-clear pastries, her voice soft and sweet.

"These are spiritual pastries I just made using the spiritual water from the Immortal Pool of Creation. They're good for the baby."

Lin Mo picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. It melted instantly in his mouth, and the rich spiritual energy flowed down his throat and throughout his body.

"Meng'er is still the most considerate." Lin Mo nodded in satisfaction.

Not far away, Shen Qinghe sat quietly in front of her easel, sketching with her brush, forever capturing this heartwarming scene on her canvas.

Jiang Zhiwei walked over in a daze, holding a dark pill in her hand, and stuffed it directly into Lin Mo's mouth.

"My husband...eat...nourishing food."

After swallowing the pill, Lin Mo instantly felt a surge of evil fire rush from his lower abdomen to his head.

"Zhiwei! Did you mistake the Hehuan Pill for a Qi-tonifying pill again?!"
