Chapter 774: Li Lao Arrives

issued a new order: encircle Ye Fan through two routes. 。"Boss… it's not good, a large number of special forces are coming…" 。Ye Fan didn't know that Xu Chu had sent a special forces team, and they a..."Elder Li, are you here to participate in the term change" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise.

Li, the secretary, however, merely drank tea without answering.

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

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

Ye Fan smiled wryly, "Old man Li, just speak your mind." Although he believed in Yu Fei, Li Lao was only meeting her for the first time. Some things were still inconvenient to say in front of her. Ye Fan naturally understood this.

"Lao Li adjusted his face and said sincerely, 'Originally, I wasn't qualified to participate in this election, but several influential figures within the system rallied behind me and recommended me for the position in Beijing...'

"Who" Ye Fan keenly sensed something.

"There are several, including people from the Ye family and the Yan family," Li Lao said meaningfully. "They all want to curry favor with me and then vote in their own interests."

"No wonder!" Ye Fan suddenly realized. However, he immediately thought of something and asked curiously, "If I remember correctly, today is the second day after the election. As a member with voting rights, how could you have time to drink tea"

This is clearly not logical.

Li Lao let out a hearty laugh and said, “You absolutely wouldn't guess it, the transition period although superficially lasts for five days, but in reality, it’s already over!”

"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 will announce the results, and then various media outlets will scramble to report on them. But why did this year's election end after only the second day

Ye Fan voiced his doubts.

"In fact, on the very first day of the term changeover, I had a premonition that this year's term changeover would end early. As it turned out, my prediction was correct."

"Could there be something fishy going on" Ye Fan was utterly perplexed.

"Great! This is the big news of this session. When results like this come out, there's usually an explanation: one side won the right to lead this transition with overwhelming votes. That means the voting results can take effect immediately without needing the judges’ approval!"

As expected! Ye Fan drained the tea in his hand in one gulp, "If I'm not mistaken, the biggest winner of this term change is the Yan family, right"

The Ye family was in turmoil, and with the recent passing of Old Master Ye, those within the family's system were unsure of their direction and wouldn't act hastily. The Chen family generally didn't concern themselves with politics and wouldn't have any moves to make. Therefore, the only ones who could win the vote by a landslide were the Yan family!

"Not bad," Lao Dao Li said. "This time, the Yan family is indeed the biggest winner. They almost moved everyone they wanted to their desired positions. At the beginning, they entered the venue with a tough attitude. Their people suddenly attacked, and when the judges realized it, it was too late."

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

The Yan family, with thunderous force, controlled the venue. 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 instantly entered the system and became a special forces unit that could rival "Dragon Teeth," directly led by Yan Wuque. In other words, nominally belonging to the state, it was actually his private army!

This is unprecedented in the Empire. You have to understand, the military power has always been controlled by the Ye family. Now the Yan family has managed to infiltrate it, and they've even taken the crucial position of Group Army Chief of Staff.

What makes it 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. He's completely different from a general or an adjutant.

This kind of proposal would normally never pass, but since the candidate for chief was nominated by Group Army Commander Wu Tianying and received an overwhelming four-fifths majority vote, it passed!

The empire had a rule that anyone 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, some people analyzed that the Yan family had actually taken control of this year's Electoral Committee members of the empire without anyone noticing. The fact that so many committee members were leaning towards the Yan family showed that the Yan family had been making connections for several years, even more than that, in advance of this term change!

The Yan family's schemes are too deep!

Besides the Yan family, there were some minor changes among the others. Ye Qingcheng officially joined Longya as deputy captain, while He Liang disappeared for unknown reasons and is rumored to have quit Longya.

As for the Dragon Girl, she continued to serve as the captain of Dragon's Teeth. At the meeting, she proposed that Ye Fan return to Dragon's Teeth and received support from most people. The Yan family faction wanted to oppose it but was powerless to do so.

And in this reshuffling, there was a power struggle and clash of interests unseen in a century.

It was the Chen and Yan families, locked in a debate over the position of the student council president. The Yan family wanted to remove Chen Ming from his leadership role and replace him with one of their own. However, despite the Chen family's recent disengagement from politics, they were far from insignificant. As the foremost family in the north, they possessed undeniable influence.

The judges all turned to the Chen family, although the Yan family held most of the voting rights, this high-level position still required discussion among the judges. If it were to be put into the process, the result of the discussion would certainly not pass, so they no longer insisted on this matter.

But this time, the Yan family and Chen family's direct conflict gave other families in the empire a signal. Is the Yan family deciding to go to war with other families

After hearing this, Ye Fan felt that the thunder was loud but the rain was small. He had prepared for so long and this much-anticipated turnover ended up like this

I underestimated you, Yan Family…

Fortunately, most of the people in Ye Family are still alive. Although Ye Qingcheng entered the Dragon's Teeth, her position as the captain remained, which can be considered a promotion. The Ye family didn't suffer too much loss.

This time around, Ye Fan was particularly paying attention to one person, that being whether the Imperial Group Army Commander would make a move.

As expected, Wu Tianying did not participate in the election. However, his position was as solid as a mountain. Surprisingly, no one present questioned his abilities!

This Wu Tianying is quite a character...

"Then, where did you get promoted to" Ye Fan suddenly replied with a smirk.

"That's good," Lao Li said with a smile.

Generally speaking, people look forward to retirement and usually choose from these places. This is understandable too.

But the human resources director, Da, didn't have as much authority as the head of Limhai. However, Li was getting older and it was time for him to rest. Besides, the Kyoto HR director was higher ranked than the Limhai head, so it was considered a promotion.

"You should also take it easy and relax. It's considered an upgrade, congratulations," Ye Fan chuckled. In the future, coming to Beijing would be easier with such a powerful card in hand. Although the first seat of the National People's Congress didn't have much real power, its level was undeniable. Suddenly, Ye Fan thought of something and asked, "Since you've come to Linhai, who will take your place"time came to noon on the second day. After another rehearsal, even Yu Fei, who was very demanding of the performance, smiled and said: "I am truly amazed. I didn't expect you all to cooperate with Ye...
