Chapter 774: Mr. Li Arrives

egligible. But, what if after the party, he accidentally reveals some unknown secrets to these two girls"When Ye Fan's words fell, Kunka's face had completely changed. There was even a feverish joy, b..."Are you here to participate in the handover, Lao Li" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise.

Li the secretary, however, only drank tea and did not answer.

Yu Fei gently shifted her body and gracefully stood up, saying, "I'm going to the washroom for a moment. Excuse me." Then she walked away with poise.

Looking at Yufei's back, Li Da said meaningfully: "You lucky boy, this girl is pretty good."

Ye Fan smiled wryly, “Just get to the point, old man.” Though he trusted Yu Fei, Li Lao had only just met her for the first time. Some things were still inconvenient to say in front of her. Ye Fan naturally understood this.

Li Lao straightened his face and said earnestly: "Originally, I was not qualified to participate in this election, but several high-ranking officials within the system jointly recommended me, which is how I came to Beijing..."

"Who" Ye Fan sensed something was amiss.

"There are quite a few, some from the Ye family and some from the Yan family," Li Lao said meaningfully. "They all want to vie for my support and vote in their favor."

"No wonder! Ye Fan suddenly realized, but then he immediately thought of something and said curiously: "If I'm not mistaken, today is the second day of the term change. Since you are a member with voting rights, how could you have time to drink tea"

This is obviously not logical.

Li Lao let out a hearty laugh, “You wouldn't believe it, the transition although officially lasts five days on the surface, it actually ended already!”

"What It's over" Ye Fan was truly astonished this time.

Usually, each election cycle lasts for five days. After five days, the judging panel announces the results, and then various media outlets scramble to report on them. But why did this year's election end after only the second day

Ye Fan asked the question that had been in his mind.

Li Lao replied: "In fact, on the first day of the term change, I already felt that this year's term change meeting would end early, and as it turned out, that's exactly what happened."

"Could there be some ulterior motive" Ye Fan was puzzled.

"Great! This is the big news of this year's election. When results like this come out, there’s usually an explanation: one side has won a decisive majority in this turnover, meaning the vote outcome can bypass the judging panel and take effect immediately!"

As I expected! Ye Fan finished the tea in his hand in one gulp, “If I’m not mistaken, the biggest winner this time around is the Yan family, right”

The Ye family was in turmoil, and with the recent passing of Old Master Ye, those within the Ye family's system were unsure of their direction and wouldn't easily make a move. The Chen family generally didn't concern themselves with political matters and couldn't possibly take any action. Therefore, the only one who could win the vote overwhelmingly was the Yan family!

"Not bad," said Lao Dao Li. "This time, the Yan family is indeed the biggest winner. They almost got all their people placed in the positions they wanted. At the beginning, they entered the venue with a strong posture. Their people suddenly attacked, and when the judges realized it, it was too late."

Through Lao Li, Ye Fan learned about the big things that happened in this year's election.

The Yan family took control of the venue with thunderous force. Most people voted for the person supported by the Yan family. Among them, Yan Wuque was appointed as the chief of staff of the Imperial Group Army. The Ninth Column surged into the system and became a special forces unit that could rival "Dragon's Tooth," directly led by Yan Wuque. In other words, it was nominally under the state but actually still his private army!

This is unprecedented in the Empire. You have to know that the military power has always been controlled by the Ye family, and now the Yan family has infiltrated it all at once, and it's even the important position of the group army chief of staff.

What's even more incomprehensible is that Yan Wuque had never trained in the military before. At most, he was just the captain of the Ninth Column, worlds apart from a general or chief strategist.

This proposal would normally never pass, but since it was nominated by General Wu Tianying, the army group commander, and received a supermajority of votes - four out of five - it surprisingly passed!

The Empire had a rule that any candidate who received the support of two-thirds of the votes could be directly appointed or dismissed without going through the review committee.

After the fact, discerning individuals analyzed that the Yan family had, unknowingly, taken control of this imperial election committee. With so many members leaning towards the Yan family, it indicates that they had been building relationships for this term change for several years, or even more!

The Yan family's schemes are too deep!

Besides the Yan family, there were some changes among other people, but not significant ones. Ye Qingcheng officially joined Longya and became the deputy captain, while He Liang disappeared for unknown reasons and was reportedly out of Longya.

And the Dragon Girl continued to serve as the captain of Dragon's Tooth. At the meeting, she proposed that Ye Fan return to Dragon's Tooth, and most people supported her. Even the Yan Family Faction couldn't oppose it.

This time during the changing of the guard, a power struggle with conflicting interests emerged, something unprecedented in a century.

It's the Chen family and the Yan family, who argued for a long time over the position of the Student Union. The Yan family wanted to remove Chen Ming from his position as leader of the Student Union and replace him with one of their own. However, although the Chen family hasn't been paying attention to politics these years, it doesn't mean they are unknown. As the leading family in the north, they naturally have their own strengths.

The panelists all turned to the Chen family, although the Yan family held most of the voting power, this heavyweight position still required discussion among the panelists. If it were to be included in the process, the discussion results would definitely not pass, so they did not insist on this matter any further.

However, this time the Yan family and Chen family's direct confrontation has given other families in the Empire a signal. Is the Yan family already deciding to go to war with other families

After hearing this, Ye Fan felt a little disappointed. He had prepared for so long, and the much-anticipated reshuffle ended up being so hasty

Yan Family, I underestimated you...

Although most of the Ye family members were implicated, Ye Qingcheng was able to enter Longya. Although she assumed the position of squad leader, her status within the Ye family remained largely unchanged. The Ye family didn't suffer significant losses overall.

This time around, Ye Fan was particularly watching one person: the Imperial Group Army commander. Would he move

As expected, Wu Tianying did not participate in the election. However, his position remained as stable as Mount Tai, and no one present questioned his abilities!

This Wu Tianying is really quite a character...

"So, where were you promoted to" Ye Fan suddenly replied with a mischievous smile.

"Good job," said Lao Li with a smile.

Generally, people often look forward to retiring from their jobs, and most choose to spend their retirement in these places. This is understandable.

Although Da was not as powerful as the head of the Liming branch, Li was getting older and it was time for him to rest. Besides, the Kyoto Da's rank was higher than the head of the Liming branch, so it could be considered a promotion.

"You should take it easy now, consider it an upgrade, congratulations," Ye Fan said with a chuckle. Having such a prominent figure in the capital would be helpful in future dealings. Though the first seat in the National People's Congress didn't hold much real power, its level was undeniable. Suddenly, Ye Fan thought of something and asked, "Since you've come to Hai City, who will take over your position there" security guards stood a portly middle-aged man. Behind him were five or six male and female teachers wearing glasses."Principal Lü, come quickly and save me!" Upon seeing this middle-aged man, Xie Sh...
