The year is the 112th year of the Orchid calendar, in the middle of summer.

Orchid Leaf Empire.

This is a powerful empire that is not ancient, the Lan calendar is only one hundred and twelve years since the Yuan Tai Emperor set the name of the country as Lan Ye as the first year of the Lan calendar, but no one can deny that this is one of the three most formidable empires in the world.

The Lanye Empire is located at the northern end of the continent, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and only the south has a long border with other countries, if you look at the area, the three empires are roughly the same, and together they divide more than eighty percent of the land of the two continents, but at the same time, it also loses the opportunity to expand - when you are faced with a behemoth similar to yourself, no matter who you are, you will choose to think twice.

In short, the empire has enjoyed peace for one hundred and ten years since the great emperor who defeated the gods with his own hands surrendered the ancient city of Yeye, which owns the academy. Since the establishment of this large and powerful northern empire, it has never been baptized by war, relying on convenient water transportation and fertile land, and the people who have lived here for thousands of years have ushered in their best time.

Now, let us set out from the small igloo on the shore of the holy lake, and gallop along the shore of the lake for a hundred miles, stepping on the way through countless flowers, grasses, falling flowers and flying leaves, and stop your haughty steps before a broken ice bridge.

It was a huge, ice-crystal python that plunged its body into the lake, leaving only its tail like a giant broken bridge.

This is the Ice Crystal Tunnel, the only creation of the two gods in the world, it is completely made of ice chips as thin as cicada wings, and does not even use any metal and magic devices, it is such an incredible underwater tunnel, opening up an ice and snow path at the bottom of the holy lake dozens of feet below. According to legend, it is the same as the snow-clothed road in the Shattered Star Lake, both of which were made by the Ye Ye Sage, not to mention how the thin ice could bear dozens of feet of water pressure and be unharmed, just to say that this ancient existence that was built for more than two hundred years and is still fresh today, which is enough to make mortals sigh and marvel.

This ice crystal corridor is the only umbilical cord of life connecting the Blue Blue Emperor Capital to the outside world, and thousands of heavy carriages are transported to and from it every day, transporting cloth, grain, tea, and porcelain to this great city in the lake, and full of heavy silver horns. It's not that Lanlan doesn't have its own water transportation, but because it is extremely difficult to obtain the qualification to travel in the holy lake.

The difficulty is roughly equivalent to asking a commoner to obtain the title of earl.

In the event of a battle, the Ice Crystal Corridor is closed, and no other Imperial warships can enter the Sacred Lake, which is an inland lake. In addition to the natural danger, this lake is also home to the world's strongest naval army, the Frost Wings, the invincible armada that has always defeated the gods at the hands of Emperor Yuantai. Therefore, Lanlan is also known as the city that never falls.

At the bottom of the sacred lake, you follow the merchant travelers through the colorful swimming fish, and if you are curious to touch the thin ice that separates you from the outside waters, it is slightly cool as if you are only touching the pebbles at the bottom of the stream in early spring. As for the hardness, there was a student of Ye Ye who found the leftover ice chips used by the sage in the academy and was curious to study the subject, and he later became a tenured professor of Ye Ye Academy, and he described this material in his paper that year: "We have always thought that this kind of ice chips are just harder ice, but can it withstand the flame of molten copper for a quarter of an hour without melting the ice?" And with a thickness only slightly thicker than gauze paper, it can carry as many as eleven blows of the hammer and be unscathed? I think that the Sage has used the simplest and purest water to create a new material that we have never heard of. ”

And in the center of this immortal city, there is a magnificent palace with many high eaves and wide arches, where the Lanye royal family lived, and on the side of the palace, there is a stone pillar hall with a white vault.

For many Lanye people, the most sacred and inviolable place in this empire is not the palace of the royal family, but the stone pillar hall next to the palace.

As it is: Imperial Parliament Chamber.

This luxurious marble hall, which is more than 20 zhang high, enjoys the supreme right to rule the entire empire. With incredible openness and foresight, the Founding Emperor of Lanye gave supreme authority to this marble hall in the form of a legal code, and even the proudest Lanye Emperor had to bow his forehead humbly before it.

What kind of existence is the Lanye Imperial Council?

To be precise, it consists of three parts, namely the Council of Ten, the Lanye House and the Imperial Family.

The Council of Ten naturally consisted of only ten people, and they were generally considered to be the ten most powerful men in the empire. But in fact, this is not the case, it is true that the vast majority of these ten people have the strength above the Heaven Realm, but the reason why they are sitting here has nothing to do with their strength. In short, among them are the head of Lanye's largest mercenary group, the most powerful president of the Chamber of Commerce, two city lords, two generals, a former prime minister and two princes, and a dean. Naturally, there was no doubt that this dean was from Ye Ye Academy.

Together, they hold the lifeblood of this empire, and in their respective realms, they are the undisputed kings.

There are one thousand and one people in the Ranye House, and the extra one is the Speaker, who comes from all the fields and lakes of the empire, and is selected proportionally to represent the will of the people of the entire empire, and in fact, they also have the greatest power of the three - the power to amend laws and the power to review and inspect the cabinet.

The third party is the imperial family, generally only the emperor and the empress are present here, all are special circumstances, and the existence of the imperial family in the council chamber is not more than 4 people - this is also the limit of the founding emperor, the imperial family has a unilateral veto power over the other two parties, and the normal governance of the country and the power to appoint local officials are also under the responsibility of the cabinet and the seven ministries under the imperial family.

The Imperial Diet meets every seven days and lasts for four hours, and today is the day when the Diet opens.

It's just that no one knew that as early as last night, someone came here and left something very personal for this most noble building in Lanye.

Or rather, this person was hiding in the Imperial Diet Chamber at this time, and she was in no hurry to show up, because she knew what would happen if she did appear in front of those people. Although she was still very young, and although she was not fierce and vicious, and it was difficult for anyone to hate her at first sight, she was a haunting blue nightmare for the Imperial Council.

Please remember her name.

Ye Qing.
