The military insignia on his shoulders was also something everyone present saw for the first time!
The stitching on this uniform seemed to possess a unique charm, as if it could reveal a map of mountains and rivers faintly shimmering under the light.
This signified shouldering the weight of the nation!
Mu Hanqi personally helped Ye Longlin put on this military uniform, her eyes brimming with tears.
“Silly girl.”
Ye Longlin couldn’t help but smile, ruffling her small head.
Mu Hanqi smacked his hand away, stubbornly retorting, “You’re the silly one!”
Everyone present watched them, silent, their gazes fixed upon them.
However, apart from the soldiers present, no one wished to see this scene, especially Li Zhaoyuan. Upon seeing Ye Longlin in this military uniform, his eyes began to emit a chilling glint.
To them, Ye Longlin’s existence was more like a time bomb; no one knew when it would explode, nor when he would become a blade that would end their lives.
An intense hatred surfaced in Li Zhaoyuan’s eyes, his fists clenched tightly, utterly helpless.
“I hope your Dragon Observation Bureau will thoroughly purge a portion of its personnel, especially those connected to various prominent families. The Supreme Court is the same. The longest period from the occurrence of this incident to now should not exceed twenty-four hours. Within twenty-four hours, this case can be judged. Does this mean the Li family has paid a price in all aspects in this matter?
I need to know the detailed answer and process regarding Han Qingshan’s involvement later. Additionally, all involved personnel in this matter who have violated regulations are to be directly reported to the Supervisory Group once discovered.”
Ye Longlin rose and spoke slowly.
People are indeed so realistic.
Before he had his identity restored, he was merely an ordinary person, a martial arts magnate. Even with heaven-defying cultivation, in the face of reality, he had no choice but to bow his head.
But now, having become the Grand Commander of the three armies, who dared to act presumptuously in front of him?
Humans are inherently complex beings, and gregarious animals at that. In such a large environment, leaders and executors naturally emerged. Of course, with leaders, there naturally came many ordinary people.
“Li Zhaoyuan, you know better than anyone how many things your son has done. Do you really think that with the Li family backing you, no one can do anything to him? Or do you believe that Li Ming could not possibly die?”
A hint of amusement played on Ye Longlin’s lips as he looked at Li Zhaoyuan.
Li Zhaoyuan shot Ye Longlin a dark glance and sneered, “Ye Longlin, if you hadn't become the Grand Commander of the three armies now, do you think you’d be qualified to speak to me here?
Before becoming the Grand Commander, you remained silent. Now that you have a position, you’re being aggressive. Don’t you think you’re even more opportunistic?”
Ye Longlin chuckled, “Then have you forgotten that I am also a Dao Realm expert? You overstepped your authority. Do you really think this matter will just pass so smoothly?
Why has the Zhenwu Division never intervened from start to finish? Have you never considered this question? Also, why did the Dragon Pavilion and other departments not make a move when I was arrested?”
Li Zhaoyuan took a deep breath, a look of profound shock appearing in his eyes. As if recalling something, he said nothing and simply left in silence.
After leaving the court, the capital city, which had been quiet for over a month, was once again stirred into a frenzy, even though it hadn't been peaceful during that month.
“It seems this year’s Spring Festival will be spent in the capital.”
As the Lunar New Year approached, red lanterns were hung by staff on the streets, and the entire thoroughfares exuded an atmosphere of peace, amplifying the festive spirit of the Spring Festival to its utmost.
But this year’s festival was destined not to be peaceful.
For the past month, there had been signs of troop mobilization along the Hetao River, the southern border, the eastern border, and the western border. A great war seemed on the verge of breaking out.
Currently, it is known that over a hundred thousand troops have gathered along the Hetao River. Keep in mind that just a month ago, there were only fifty thousand troops. This means that in the past month, fifty thousand more have been amassed.
Furthermore, according to military intelligence, more troops were en route, and a major war appeared imminent.
The other three border regions also seemed to have troops gathering.
By the time Ye Longlin finished his affairs at the military department, it was already a day later.
“Tomorrow is the Ye family’s ancestral worship ceremony, and you promised them you would attend,” Mu Hanqi said softly beside Ye Longlin, massaging his shoulders.
Yes, he had promised Ye Nantian to attend the ancestral worship ceremony. Tomorrow certainly wouldn't be peaceful, and the thought of it felt troublesome.
Who could have predicted the events at the Hall of Glory before this?
“The Ye family declared today that the newly appointed Grand Commander of the three armies is one of their Ye family members, and that he will accompany them to the ancestral worship ceremony tomorrow.”
This matter had caused quite a stir in the capital, after all, the title of Grand Commander of the three armies was a hot topic. Anything involving these four words was bound to generate significant repercussions.
“Let’s go and see.”
Ye Longlin tilted his head, looking up at Mu Hanqi from bottom to top, and playfully pinched her cheek, a smile blooming on his face.
Mu Hanqi pouted, clearly displeased with his demeanor.
The Ye family’s ancestral worship ceremony tomorrow, due to Ye Longlin’s current status as the Grand Commander of the three armies, would undoubtedly elevate the Ye family’s influence if he attended. Of course, this assumed nothing untoward happened tomorrow.
The Hall of Glory had not yet disclosed any information regarding the identity of the Grand Commander of the three armies, keeping everything secret from the public.
However, for certain individuals within the capital, this matter could not be kept hidden, especially with several outsiders present in the court.
“Boss, the Supreme Court and the Dragon Observation Bureau have released a list of quite a number of people. The processing of these individuals has already begun. Furthermore, Han Qingshan was behind all these arrangements. Do you want to go settle accounts with Han Qingshan?”
Xuan Niao walked over from outside the courtyard, his tone calm, no different from before.
They had long known that their boss wouldn’t remain silent forever. They just hadn't expected things to happen so quickly, catching them slightly off guard.
“Han Qingshan, if I recall correctly, he is the actual controller behind the Han Group?” Ye Longlin inquired.
Xuan Niao nodded, “Yes, the interest group led by Han Qingshan relies heavily on the Han Group for many of its dealings.”
“In that case, prepare the car.”
