God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me

The Town Martial Hall has all sided with Fan Ye, and even Liu Motian, the Vice Governor of the Capital, is unlikely to fare any better!

Beside him, Liu Motian, who at this moment had wet himself from fear, looked at the situation before him and cursed Ling Bo to the depths of hell.

This has really killed me!

Fan Ye could even command the Shadows of the Town Martial Hall and dared to incapacitate me; it seems like my status won't prevent Fan Ye from continuing his assault!

The key issue is, with just a single word from Fan Ye, the Lord of Shadows would take action and have me "snapped" in an instant.

And once the Town Martial Hall makes a move, my death would be completely in vain!

Thinking of this, Liu Motian completely lost his nerve and, stumbling and crawling, he rushed in front of Ye Fan and Ling Yifei, bowing his head and pleading for mercy, "Young Master Fan, I was wrong! Miss Ling, I was wrong... I was blind and saw you as inferior, may Young Master Fan spare my wretched life? I won't dare from now on, I won't ever oppose Second Miss Ling or the eldest sister again..."

As Liu Motian spoke, he wiped the sweat beads from his forehead!

The reason Liu Motian agreed to help Ling Bo and came forward today was that he received news from the Northwest – Ling Yanqiu's fiancé, Ye Fan, was killed in an explosion.

With Ye Fan's death meaning the collapse of the Ye Family, Prince Jin, who had been previously suppressed, would fully recover and rise!

Without the protection and deterrence of Ye Fan, the Ling Family would become nothing but a fat piece of meat on the chopping board... Liu Motian's intention in helping Ling Bo was to get a share of the benefits once Ling Bo took control of the Ling Family!

Now, Ling Bo himself had been incapacitated, his martial power completely vanished, and there would definitely be no support coming from the Huo Family today; hope was completely lost!

The consequences for Ling Bo would be clear to anyone; even if he managed to save his life, it would be impossible for him to have any say in the Ling Family.

What folly!

"If every man does not make a stand, who will be spared by heaven or earth?"

At this point, Liu Motian didn't care about appearances or influence, "It was all Ling Bo's plan, he wanted to ally with the Huo Family and marry Second Miss Ling to Huo Jie, then use the Huo Family's influence to drive Eldest Miss Ling out of the Ling Family and usurp power... I was only threatened by Ling Bo..."

"I..."

Beside him, Huo Jie had fainted and then regained consciousness, only to faint again upon awakening.

Listening to Liu Motian's words, Huo Jie felt utterly frustrated and insane, why involve me in your mess?

But just as he was about to speak out, Huo Jie quickly covered his mouth with his hand.

He dared not speak rashly anymore; otherwise, the big shots from the Town Martial Hall might indeed knock him out directly – he was afraid to die!

"Young Master Fan, after all, I am the Vice Governor of the Capital, an official appointed by the Empire! I should be directly under the jurisdiction of the Prime Minister Manor... Perhaps you could spare me this once, so that it could be properly explained to them?"

Liu Motian's words were very subtle and cautious.

But his intention was very clear, as Vice Governor of the Capital, such authority was indeed governed by the Prime Minister Manor.

If Fan Ye were to kill him over today's conflict, it would be akin to slapping the face of the Prime Minister Manor.

Liu Motian was using his identity to remind Ye Fan that there should always be room left in one's actions.

What Liu Motian didn't know was that Ji Ningxuan, the daughter of the Prime Minister Manor and future Empress, had already become Ye Fan's woman long ago!

Before coming to the Ling Mansion, Ye Fan had already had Guo Li make arrangements, and by this time, the people from the Prime Minister Manor should almost be arriving, right?

The situation on-site, the turnaround for Ling Yifei made her feel she didn't know how to express herself anymore!

"Fan Ye, maybe we should just drop it? Let's not offend so many people..."

Fan Ye had only just arrived in the Capital and had already offended so many people; how would he be able to mix in the Capital in the future?

Moreover, now that Fan Ye was publicly her boyfriend, his actions would naturally be associated with the Ling Family...

After offending so many people, it would bring big trouble for the Ling Family later on!

"Offend people? Why be afraid? I came to the Capital precisely to do just that!" Ye Fan said with a wicked smile, glancing outside the courtyard.

There, a car came to a swift stop, and two middle-aged people dressed in trench coats, a man and a woman, got out!

"Special Envoy Xiang? Lady Hong, what brings you here?"

Liu Motian's face underwent a drastic change upon setting eyes on the middle-aged man and woman before him.

These two were none other than Special Envoy Xiang, the left and right arm of the Prime Minister, specifically tasked with conveying orders from the Prime Minister Manor,

and the other, Lady Hong, was an attendant of Empress Ji Ningxuan!

Their sudden presence boded ill for the situation at hand.

"Liu Motian, I am here on behalf of the Prime Minister to convey an appointment: effective immediately, your position as Vice Governor of the Capital has been revoked… as well as all other positions related to official duties within Great Xia… Here is the decree!"

Special Envoy Xiang handed Liu Motian a document bearing the official seal.

Upon seeing the bright red seal of the Prime Minister, Liu Motian's entire body slumped to the ground.

"Why is this happening?" Liu Motian couldn't understand, was everything so harshly realistic?

Hadn't he just been crippled by Ye Fan, so how had the order to remove him from his position arrived so suddenly?

Something wasn't right!

His dismissal wasn't because he had been crippled, but rather, preparations had already been made by the Prime Minister Manor before his downfall?

Damn it all!

So, it meant that before Ye Fan had taken action, the Prime Minister Manor had already issued the appointment to revoke his position. How could such complex procedures have been completed so quickly?

Just how powerful was this Fan Ye before him, to have the capacity to even mobilize the Prime Minister Manor?

"On behalf of the Empress and the royal family, I confirm the validity of the Prime Minister Manor's appointment! And I hereby declare that, effective immediately, the Ling Family is the exclusive procurement channel for the Empress. The details will be fully coordinated by Eldest Miss Ling after this! Anyone who opposes the Ling Family is opposing the Empress, the royal family, and the Prime Minister Manor…"

The announcement by Lady Hong was even more shocking!

Ling Bo fainted on the spot after hearing her words!

It was over! There was no salvation!

Even with the support of the Huo Family, he would never be able to turn the tide.

Ling Bo, in the end, couldn't grasp why the Empress would suddenly announce such an in-depth partnership with the Ling Family, and why specify Ling Yanqiu?

Could it be because of Ye Fan?

There were already rampant rumors about the Empress giving the Emperor a metaphorical 'green hat'.

Now that Ye Fan had been blown to bits, was the Empress protecting even Ye Fan's sister-in-law?

Bang!

At the fall of Lady Hong's words, Liu Motian also collapsed to the ground.

It was done, utterly done!

He should never have come today!

Liu Motian knew very well what awaited him next.

Over the years, he had made no small number of enemies in his position as Vice Governor.

Now with his kung fu stripped away and his position removed, without the protection of being an official of Great Xia, he would not survive until tomorrow morning.

"Yifei, are you all right, you all…"

Just as the scene had quieted down for a few seconds, another car screeched to a halt at the entrance, and Second Miss Ling, Ling Yanqiu, frantically leaped out, rushing to Ling Yifei's side, anxiously looking her over.

She finally exhaled a sigh of relief upon confirming that Ling Yifei was unharmed.

But as Ling Yanqiu caught sight of the Lord of Shadows, Min Hong, and others appearing at the gates of Ling Mansion, and then saw her fallen uncle, Liu Motian, Minister Wang, and others on the ground, a hint of confusion surfaced in her eyes, quickly followed by shock!

The Lord of Shadows from the Town Martial Hall had personally intervened to resolve the Ling Family's troubles?

Yet, Ling Yanqiu was acutely aware of the Ling Family's power. Though as one of the Supreme Families of Great Xia they had considerable influence, even Ling Yanqiu in person couldn't hope to enlist the Lord of Shadows.

Unless…
