Chapter 590

~~

At this time, Ling Xiongjie and Ling Xiongfeng were sitting in a small hall chatting in Ling's house. Although Ling Xiongfeng is the acting head of the Ling family, he still sits at the bottom with a respectful expression towards Ling Xiongjie.

"Xiongfeng, how do you think I treated you in the past?" Ling Xiongjie said in a low voice.

"The Patriarch treated me very well in the past, and Xiongfeng is very grateful." Ling Xiongfeng said, but he was full of slander in his heart. He has never been Ling Xiongjie's confidant, and has always been on the periphery of the family. He and Ling Yu have a bit of sympathy , although he is temporarily acting as the head of the family, most of the family power is still in the hands of Ling Xiongjie. He didn't dare to show any disrespect to Ling Xiongjie, otherwise, if Ling Xiongjie or Ling Xiongjie's son Ling Cheng ascended to the position of Patriarch again, then he would not have a good life in the future.

"Very well, Xiongfeng, if you obey me, I will not treat you badly. The Snow Emperor has ignored family affairs for many years, and the Ling family is completely different now. It is not the Snow Emperor who can do it alone. The Lord." Ling Xiongjie said lightly, a stern look flashed in his eyes.

Ling Xiongfeng naturally understood that there was an obvious threat in Ling Xiongjie's words. He understood that Ling Xiongjie's methods were vicious, and Ling Yu's parents were killed by Ling Xiongjie back then. Although Snow Emperor has a great say in the Ling family, and can even remove Ling Xiongjie as the head of the family, it is difficult to completely change the status quo of the Ling family. Whether it is the Law Enforcement Hall or the family's various businesses, it is Ling Xiongjie's. The confidant is in control.

Ling Xiongfeng sighed. Although Ling Yu had the support of the Snow Emperor, unless the Snow Emperor stayed in the Ling family or could change the structure of the Ling family first, Ling Yu would still not be able to ascend to the position of Patriarch.

"The monarch's envoy has arrived!" Suddenly, there was a shout from outside.

Ling Xiongjie and Ling Xiongfeng couldn't help being taken aback, isn't the monarch holding a feast, why did he suddenly send an envoy to the Ling family?

They came back to their senses and immediately filed out. All the Ling family members gathered in the front hall, bowing down to welcome the envoys of the monarch.

"I will accept the order." Ling Xiongfeng stood in front of everyone respectfully as the Acting Patriarch, and everyone in the hall knelt down following his words.

The envoy of the monarch is a guard in golden armor. He glanced at Ling Xiongjie and Ling Xiongfeng, unfolded a bright yellow scroll, and read aloud: "The imperial edict, Ling Yu, the third son of the Ling family, has both ability and political integrity. Specially betrothed Princess Zhaoming Ji Zixuan to Ling Yu, specially named the Lord of Lingxiao Holy City, and bestowed a territory of hundreds of miles..."

After receiving the imperial edict from the monarch's envoy, both Ling Xiongjie and Ling Xiongfeng were a little stunned and unable to react. The monarch actually married the princess to Ling Yu? This is too unbelievable! There are so many young talents who are pursuing the princess from the big families, how could that old fox Ji Haotian choose Ling Yu?

The current Ling Yu is just the third heir of the Ling family. What method did he use to marry the princess?

If it was only the Snow Emperor's support, Ling Yu's chances of becoming the Patriarch of the Ling Family are not great, but now that he has the support of the King, the result will be different. The King will allow his son-in-law to even be the Patriarch of the Ling Family Can't you?

In terms of means, can Ling Xiongjie compare to Ji Haotian who is the king of a country?

The six wealthy families in the imperial capital are all under Ji Haotian's surveillance. Ji Haotian can use any means to kill Ling Xiongjie easily, after all, he is the king of a country!

With the support of the royal family, no matter how Ling Xiongjie struggles, Ling Yu is assured as the head of the Ling family! If he had to use some means, not only would he not be able to kill Ling Yu, he might be killed by Ji Haotian first!

Without extraordinary means,

How could it be possible to easily sit on the throne of the monarch?

After hearing this oracle, Ling Xiongjie's face was gloomy and gloomy. Even if he was deposed as Patriarch by the Snow Emperor, he didn't feel as powerless as he is now. If he wants to help Ling Cheng fight for the position of Patriarch, he will not only face For Snow Emperor, he had to face a terrifying Ji Haotian.

What kind of shit luck did Ling Yu have? !

Until the monarch's envoy left, everyone in the hall hadn't recovered for a long time. Ling Yu actually married the princess. Isn't this a dream? Ji Haotian would definitely not marry the princess off lightly. Royal marriages are often closely related to politics, but what exactly did Ji Haotian like in Ling Yu?

Ling Xiongfeng was also extremely surprised, and only then did he realize that he really underestimated Ling Yu! From the beginning after being arrested by the law enforcement elders and brought back to the Ling family, he talked freely at the clan meeting, then later with the support of Xue Huang, he dropped Ling Xiongjie's position as the patriarch, and now he suddenly became Ji Haotian's son-in-law, this is definitely not the case. Means that ordinary people can have!

Ling Yu's dullness and concessions before were probably just a low-key forbearance. Such a thunderous method knocked Ling Xiongjie into a daze at once.

Ling Xiongfeng suddenly wanted to laugh, and couldn't help but burst out laughing, the whole hall was full of Ling Xiongfeng's laughter.

"Ling Xiongfeng, are you out of your mind?" Ling Xiongjie said angrily. Starting today, he felt that he had gradually lost his prestige in the Ling family.

"Of course I'm not insane!" Ling Xiongfeng looked around at the people in the hall, and laughed, "It happens that all the law enforcement elders, as well as the heads and supervisors of the branch families are here. I, Ling Xiongfeng, want to say a few words. The princess is getting married Ling Yu, this is a great joy for my Ling family! Ling Yu is undoubtedly the best candidate for the next head of the Ling family, do you have any objections?"

Everyone in the hall looked different, but no one said a word. Ling Xiongfeng continued: "I, Ling Xiongfeng, are willing to support the succession of the new patriarch. As for the law enforcement elders, branch patriarchs, and supervisors, you can do it yourself. Support Ling Yucheng is the new head of the family, please stand up."

There was no sound in the hall, and after a moment of silence, one person after another walked towards Ling Xiongfeng. The heads of the various branches went first. They were less restricted by Ling Xiongjie and had a certain degree of autonomy. First, they expressed their respect for Ling Xiongfeng. The support, then the various supervisors, and even Ling Xiongjie's confidantes in the Law Enforcement Hall walked towards Ling Xiongfeng one after another.

This is the choice of everyone in the Ling family. If it is said that Ling Xiongjie was only dropped from the position of Patriarch, with so many years of prestige, Ling Xiongjie will not lose power easily. changed.

Everyone knows that continuing to follow Ling Xiongjie will only lead to a dead end!

Except for Ling Gong and a few others who are still on Ling Xiongjie's side, more than 60 people in power of the Ling family in the hall have come to Ling Xiongfeng's side, and now no one can stop Ling Yu from succeeding as the head of the Ling family.

"You're fine! You bastards who are on both sides of the fence!" Ling Xiongjie's expression was grim and contorted, and he cursed in public angrily. He didn't expect that his business in the Ling family for so many years would collapse in an instant and fall short. All this happened so fast that he was caught off guard, and he was powerless to save it.

Ling Gong was also extremely depressed at the side. He did not expect Ling Xiongjie to lose power so quickly. Even if he voted for Ling Xiongfeng at this moment, it would not help, because he had offended Ling Yu a long time ago on the way to escort Ling Yu back. , who would have thought that Ling Yu, who was still a prisoner some time ago, would become the son-in-law of the monarch and the future head of the Ling family in the blink of an eye?

"Grass!" Ling Gong couldn't help cursing, he could only blame himself for his bad luck, if he hadn't offended Ling Yu before, he would definitely stand by Ling Xiongfeng's side without hesitation like everyone else, he knew , now everything is irreversible, as the consort of the princess, and with the support of the Snow Emperor, Ling Yu will become the most powerful head of the Ling family!

Ling Xiongjie never imagined that Ling Yu would come back quickly in such a way, he didn't even have time to prepare.

"It's impossible for me to concede defeat!" Ling Xiongjie gritted his teeth and hated, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Yu will soon succeed the Patriarch, and there will be a way to deal with him in a short while, he will still find a chance after all!

*****

In the inner hall of the imperial city, the banquet is still going on. It is said that there are still three important people who are not present, and it is unknown who those people are. It is so big that so many war emperors are waiting here.

I heard that there are two war emperors who are members of the Taoist court, but I don't know what their background is.

A group of people were chatting, suddenly, the flying knife in Ye Chen's mind buzzed and trembled.

Ye Chen frowned, even these powerful warriors couldn't see the flying knife in his mind, only Ye Chen felt the strangeness of the flying knife.

What exactly triggered the flying knife?

Ye Chen was a little puzzled.

"Emperor Yu, Emperor Qin, and Miss Ruoyun have arrived." At this moment, a guard came in and reported loudly.

"Please come in quickly!" Ji Haotian hurriedly ordered, and he immediately got up and said excuse me to all the war emperors present, and then hurriedly went to greet them in person.

Hearing that Emperor Yu, Emperor Qin and Miss Ruoyun were coming, all the war emperors who were chatting in their seats got up and stood up.

Seeing that all the battle emperors got up, Ye Chen naturally wouldn't still be sitting there, he also stood up, and asked the Snow Emperor beside him: "Master Xuehuang, Yuhuang, Qinhuang and that girl Ruoyun, are you who?"

"You have to be careful when you speak, that Yu Huang and Qin Huang are the proud disciples of the Lord of the Dao Court, Shen Huang, and they are both geniuses with a star-soul fusion degree close to 70, but in their twenties, they are already at the first level of the War Emperor As for Miss Ruoyun, her status is extremely noble, no one knows her true identity, and no one knows her cultivation level. Some people speculate that she is the daughter of the servant god, but no one can be sure so far." Snow Emperor whispered beside Ye Chen.

It turned out to be a big shot in the Dao Court. No wonder these war emperors treated these two young war emperors from the Dao Court courteously even though they usually dominated one side.

Ye Chen thought to himself, the flying knives in his mind were buzzing and trembling all the time, the profound energy surged out and flowed through his whole body, this time the overflowing profound energy was even purer than before, and it quickly merged into the into the dantian.

The nine stars in the dantian also experienced a slight change, and various mysterious spirits wandered on the surface of the nine stars.

These mysterious spirits are like living creatures, and Ye Chen seems to be able to feel their joyful mood.
