They actually didn't want it to be like this.
But if it weren't for this, many people would have attacked him.
Before, they were worried about his identity, but now that he had no such identity, he had become a thorn in the side of many.
What they feared was not those families, but Ye Longlin.
After all, even if Ye Longlin had stepped down, he was still a top martial arts master!
The status of a martial arts master was no less than that of a commander of the three armies!
"Think about it, the influence these families possess, combined with their connections and numerous industries, if all of it were unleashed, it would cause tremendous upheaval in society. And who could withstand this upheaval? At least we can't!
Not only would it trigger stock market volatility, but it would also lead to hundreds of thousands of people losing their jobs. And when these people are unemployed, what about their mortgages and car loans? These are things that the lowest strata of society should consider, so we should be considering these people."
"I'm worried that Ye Longlin, in his rage, might exterminate all these people. The ensuing upheaval would be something no one could bear. Therefore, we must keep him under our control.
To be honest, I've never worried about him, nor have I ever worried that he would go too far. I'm afraid of those people going too far. Once they push too hard, I fear Ye Longlin will get angry, and if he gets angry, none of you, except for me, can restrain him!"
Li Chengyao stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the small goldfish in the flowing water of a rockery in the inner courtyard.
The goldfish seemed unwilling to stay in the small pond, desperately trying to get into the stream and then into the larger pond next to it. httpδ:/m.kuAisugg.nět
"Look, this goldfish is also trying to improve its status. Tell me, if this goldfish were to go out later, after having stayed in the inner courtyard of the Hall of Honor, would someone bid a very high price for it?"
Li Chengyao said with a chuckle, a smile playing on his lips. But the next moment, he suddenly started coughing.
"Cough, cough."
As he coughed, he quickly took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth, and there was fresh blood in the center of the handkerchief.
"You, your body is not well enough. You should go home and rest. I've taken over all your responsibilities. I'm taking over all your work, and these matters are no longer your concern. Go home and stay there."
The Great Elder looked at Li Chengyao, sighed deeply, his eyes filled with sadness.
He had worked with this old fellow for many years, and he knew his temperament well.
Li Chengyao shook his head, "Forget it. What I wish for now is to see him wear his general's uniform one more time while I'm still alive. This uniform was tailored precisely to his physique."
Yes, that uniform was indeed made according to Ye Longlin's physique. After all, only they knew who their one and only commander of the three armies was in their hearts.
The Great Elder lowered his head and looked at the goldfish, then reached out and placed it into another large fishpond.
"The main event that has been weighing on our hearts for decades, perhaps before I die, I will be able to see a clear blue sky."
"We were the ones who painted this blue sky gray; now it's time to paint it blue."
...
Commander's Mansion.
Ye Longlin looked at the completed courtyard before him, and his mood was quite good.
Ever since he learned that these people were here to monitor him, he hadn't left the courtyard. Everything was procured by Xuan Niao and Mu Hanqi, while he and Yuan Gang stayed in the courtyard.
Sometimes they would prune the flowers and plants, other times they would play chess or practice calligraphy.
"Boss, the incident at the Lingfeng Resort by the Martial Arts Association has caused quite a stir. In the past period, many martial arts masters have come from all over the country. According to the statistics from the Town Martial Division, there are ten Dao realm masters and over a hundred Dragon Elephant realm experts. It is said that many elders have gone to various places to invite some reclusive masters. It seems that this time, the Martial Arts Association is determined!"
Yuan Gang placed a piece and slyly removed a white piece, chuckling.
Ye Longlin rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Why are you just like old man Li, always wanting to take back your moves in chess?"
"I've won this game again. I say, you've been playing for so many days, and you haven't improved at all. Can't you learn properly? What kind of chess are you playing?"
Yuan Gang smiled helplessly, "Brother, I'm not a chess player. You are the strategist."
Ye Longlin smiled, looking at the chessboard before him, and chuckled without speaking, a smile appearing at the corner of his lips.
"Since the Martial Arts Association has invited guests, we should invite some too, shouldn't we?"
"Prepare the car."
Yuan Gang grinned, "Got it!"
Chen Fuzi, Ye Longlin's master.
This was a top expert in the capital. He once dared to turn the capital upside down for a student.
This was no simple matter. How many heads rolled in that incident? How many people realized the true wrath of a teacher?
He appeared at the battle of Shenglong Lake.
It also reminded countless people why Chen Fuzi was called Fuzi!
He was a truly good teacher.
After that incident back then, Chen Fuzi went to teach in the countryside, and he stayed there for twenty years.
Many people in the capital thought he had died. But his reappearance also brought back memories for many old generation experts.
This man also acted alone, but he knew many top experts.
"We have already found Mr. Chen's address. He hasn't hidden it either; in fact, he's been quite high-profile. This old gentleman has probably been waiting for you."
But just as he finished speaking, someone knocked on the door.
After the incident in the morning, Yuan Gang had someone replace the door. Mu Hanqi was not satisfied with it, but there was nothing she could do. If they changed it again, it would be somewhat impolite.
"I'll go open the door."
When Yuan Gang opened the door, someone they hadn't expected appeared.
Mu Ye!
Mu Ye had returned to the capital and once again taken charge of the Murong family, with Mu Hanqi becoming the little princess of the Murong family again.
"I say, Longlin, it's a bit impolite of you not to invite me when you move into your new home. Hahaha."
Mu Ye started laughing as soon as he entered, looking at Ye Longlin with great happiness.
His son-in-law was truly remarkable, causing great commotion as soon as he arrived in the capital.
Originally, many people in the Murong family had reservations about him retaking charge of the Murong family, but after the Lunar New Year period, no one dared to say anything more.
After all, his son-in-law was the current commander, so who would dare to say anything?
"I was originally planning for Xiao Qi to call you this afternoon, but I didn't expect you to come yourself."
