Under the gaze of everyone, Ye Chen returned to the seat next to Ling Yu. Whether it was the wealthy children or Ji Zhuoxu, they were all very respectful to Ye Chen. Just kidding, Ye Chen just talked directly to those fighting men. When talking to the Emperor, although they are of similar age and most of them are older than Ye Chen, many of them are not even qualified to speak to the Emperor. wwW!QUaNbEn-xIAoShUO!coM
Ji Zhuoxu's heart froze when he thought that he was actually seeking trouble for Ye Chen just now. Although he was the prince of the Zihua Dynasty, finding trouble for Ye Chen was no different from seeking death. Fortunately, his sister was married to Ling Yu, and those previous grudges It was just written off.
"I'd like to pay a toast to the prince." Ye Chen raised his glass and said to Ji Zhuoxu. He is not the kind of person who holds grudges. Any resources that can be used must not be let go easily. The marriage between the Ji family and the Ling family is beneficial to him. harmless.
Ji Zhuoxu felt flattered when he saw Ye Chen toasting him. He was also worried whether Ye Chen would hold a grudge against him, but he didn't expect Ye Chen to be so generous.
"I was reckless just now. I hope brother Ye Chen won't take offense. I'll punish myself with three drinks first!" Ji Zhuoxu raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. After drinking three glasses in a row, the previous arrogance was gone and his attitude was extremely sincere.
"Ling Yu is my brother. I will ask His Highness the Crown Prince to take care of you in the future." Ye Chen said with a faint smile.
"Of course, Ling Yu is not only your brother, but also my brother-in-law. We will all be a family from now on. How dare I not do my best?" Ji Zhuoxu laughed.
"Your Highness, I'd like to toast you too." Ling Yu on the side also raised his glass.
Seeing this, all the children from wealthy families came together to toast. Although they didn't have the confidence to deal with Ye Chen, they might be able to climb Ye Chen's big tree through Ling Yu.
Ling Yu suddenly became a big hit, but Ling Cheng and Ling Xu, who were also members of the Ling family, were left out in the cold at the moment.
Although Ling Cheng and Ling Xu are the first and second heirs of the Ling family, who will care at this time? joke. Anyone who is still entangled with Ling Cheng and Ling Xu is going against Ling Yu. To go against Ling Yu is to go against His Highness the Crown Prince, and to go against the terrible Ye family behind Ye Chen!
Ling Cheng and Ling Xu asked for trouble and slipped away quietly.
Before leaving, Ling Cheng glanced at Ling Yu's back bitterly, gritted his teeth and said, "This kid is really lucky!"
"Brother, what should we do?" Ling Xu asked. Although he and Ling Cheng had never been enemies, they faced a common enemy. They finally stood together.
"Go back first!" Ling Cheng snorted depressingly. The only people they could rely on were their parents.
When Ling Cheng and Ling Xu left, their backs looked somewhat dingy.
The banquet continued until late at night, and everyone slowly dispersed.
These War Emperors are all planning to stay in the Imperial City of the Zihua Dynasty for a while. Emperor Yu and Emperor Qin also want to lead the Tao Ting people to build a passage to the Purple Ring Star in the Ling Mars Small Tianyuan Realm, so naturally it is even more impossible to leave.
As for the girl Ruoyun, she disappeared before the banquet was over.
Ye Chen returned to Ling's house with Xue Huang and Ling Yu before leaving. Ji Zhuoxu and a group of wealthy disciples sent them away very politely before going back.
"Sir Snow Emperor, where did that girl Ruoyun come from?" Returning to the Snow Emperor's courtyard in the Ling family, Ye Chen hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively.
"I don't know either." Snow Emperor shook his head. Regarding the matter of Ruoyun Xinghun's fusion degree being 0, he promised not to leak it.
"No news at all?"
"Although there are many rumors that she is the daughter of a certain servant god, no one has confirmed it. If you really want to know her origin, I guess you have to go to the Lord God Emperor to find out."
"Ask the Lord of the Court..." Ye Chen choked, but he didn't think so. With his current status, being able to meet the Lord of the Taoist Court, he was full of curiosity about the identity of Ruoyun, especially he wanted to know why Ruoyun could trigger the flying knife in his mind.
The Snow Emperor should be hiding something, maybe he couldn't tell, and Ye Chen could only hide his doubts in his heart for the time being.
"Sir Snow Emperor, I want Ling Yu to ascend to the position of head of the Ling family within three days. Do you think it will be difficult?" Ye Chen looked at the Snow Emperor and asked. He must first use thunderous means to help Ling Yu win it. The position of the head of the family, otherwise Ling Xiongjie would still counterattack.
The Snow Emperor glanced at Ye Chen indifferently and said indifferently: "There is basically no problem for Ling Yu to become the head of the Ling family. If the princess marries Ling Yu, if I let Ling Yu succeed the head of the family, most of the people in the Ling family will surely I won’t object, but becoming the head of the Ling family doesn’t mean you can sit back and relax.”
"I understand this." Ye Chen nodded.
"Thank you, Brother Ye Chen. If it weren't for Brother Ye Chen, I would have no chance to compete for the position of the head of the Ling family, let alone marry the princess." Ling Yu said sincerely, and he felt a heartfelt gratitude to Ye Chen.
Ye Chen understood that Ling Yu had completely returned to him. He smiled slightly and said nothing.
"Even if you take over the Ling family, you must be careful, lest Ling Xiongjie fights to the death." Ye Chen warned Ling Yu.
Ling Yu nodded solemnly.
The next day, the morning light dewed slightly.
In the square in front of the Ling Family Law Enforcement Hall, everyone in the Ling Family in the Imperial City had gathered early. The Snow Emperor had already informed people last night that a morning meeting of the whole family would be held here today.
Many people have already guessed the purpose of the Snow Emperor's morning meeting. The square is crowded with people, and most of the powerful people from the Ling family are present. There are different expressions on these people's faces, some are looking forward to it, some are depressed, and some are resentful. , there are also happy ones...
Everyone still clearly remembers that at the previous gathering, the head of the Ling family, Ling Xiongjie, was preparing to lock Ling Yu into the Xuanjing ice cellar. At that time, everyone thought that Ling Yu was dead, but they did not expect that it had only been two months. Things have changed. The former patriarch Ling Xiongjie is no longer the head of the Ling family, but Ling Yu has become a popular candidate for the head of the Ling family, and has even become the prince-consort of the Zihua Dynasty. Who could have predicted this fate in life? Accurate
Several people who had offended Ling Yu back then, including Ling Gong and others, were all depressed to death. This time they were in a dead end, and they would probably never have a chance to turn around again in their lives. Do you expect Ling Yu to forgive them? Even they themselves wouldn’t believe this kind of joke! They almost killed Ling Yu!
Ling Xiongjie, Ling Gong and several others stood in the square, their hearts filled with gloom. Ling Xiongjie's face was even more frighteningly grave, his eyes were deep and unreadable, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
The acting head of the family, Ling Xiongfeng, as well as the heads and supervisors of each branch family, as well as the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall, all stood respectfully in front of the crowd, waiting for the arrival of the Snow Emperor.
Nearly three thousand Ling family members crowded the entire square, much more than the last time Ling Yu was tried.
After everyone arrived, the Snow Emperor appeared, followed by Ye Chen and Ling Yu.
As soon as they appeared, everyone's eyes were focused on these three people.
The Snow Emperor sat down on the chair at the front of the square, looked around at all the Ling family members, and said in a deep voice: "I have summoned everyone here today because I have something to announce."
Ye Chen and Ling Yu stood aside. Ye Chen had no expression. Although Ling Yu was a little excited, his eyes were bright and he didn't show anything on his face.
Ling Xiongjie had a gloomy face, standing below and looking at Ling Yu, the vicious light in his eyes flashed away. Two months ago, he was sitting above looking down at Ling Yu. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, their status would be reversed. , how could he be willing to do so!
At this moment, Ling Xiongfeng, who was standing in front, suddenly knelt down on one knee towards the Snow Emperor.
"Dear Snow Emperor, please forgive Xiongfeng for being reckless. We also have some things we want to report to Lord Snow Emperor." Ling Xiongfeng said respectfully. He was afraid of being upstaged, so he rushed to speak in advance.
"Oh? If you have anything to do, it doesn't matter." Snow Emperor said.
"Ling Yu is young and promising. He was appreciated by the king and married the princess. This is definitely the most glorious thing that our Ling family has done in decades. Xiongfeng boldly has a proposal. Since Ling Yu is one of the three heirs of my Ling family , now is the best time to choose a new head of the family. The new head of the Ling family is born, and he is married to the princess. This is a double happiness!" Ling Xiongfeng said with a spring breeze on his face.
"The acting head of the family is right."
"We are willing to support Ling Yu as the new head of the family!" All the branch heads of the Ling family and the law enforcement elders knelt on one knee and said loudly.
It is already a certainty that Ling Yu will become the new head of the family. Why don't they all show their loyalty quickly
"Have you made a decision about the new head of the family?" Snow Emperor said calmly. He thought it would not be easy to shake Ling Xiongjie's authority in the Ling family, but he didn't expect that he didn't need to say anything more. Everything had already been done. Reversed too quickly.
Sure enough, the wall fell and everyone pushed it down, and the tree fell and the hozens scattered.
Since Ling Xiongfeng took the initiative to bring it up, some trouble was saved.
Behind Ling Xiongjie, Ling Cheng and Ling Xu felt unhappy. Their position as head of the family was snatched away by Ling Yu, and they were too unwilling to accept it.
Ling Xiongjie also felt a little powerless. He was already helpless in the current situation.
The Snow Emperor said in a deep voice: "I announce that Ling Yu has become the new head of the Ling family. The succession ceremony will be held today. Ling Xiongfeng will be the new chief elder of the Law Enforcement Hall and will be responsible for marrying the princess. Do you have any objections?"
"no disagreement!"
“But it’s up to the Snow Emperor to make the decision!”
Many tribesmen expressed their opinions one after another.
Ling Xiongjie gritted his teeth and suddenly knelt down towards the Snow Emperor and said, "Sir Snow Emperor, I have no objection to Ling Yu becoming the new head of the family, but I still have something to say."
"Whatever you want to say, just say it." Snow Emperor looked at Ling Xiongjie calmly.
"In the past few decades, I have worked hard for the Ling family, and I have worked hard even if I don't have any merit. I hope that the Snow Emperor will be more generous and allow me to go to the Tianhua Divine Dynasty and run the business there for the family. I will have no regrets. Yes." Ling Xiongjie lowered his head and said sincerely.
