Daxia Empire, within the imperial city.
At the top of the majestic and towering dome, the magnificent palace shines with dazzling brilliance in the sun.
The Tai Chi Tiger flag is swaying, and a stone sculpture of a huge sword inserted upside down into the mountains stands at the top of the palace, which represents the authority and strength of the Xuanyuan royal family in Daxia that cannot be underestimated.
Deep underground under the stone sculptures, outside an independent room, dozens of Forbidden Palace envoys stood solemnly and unsmilingly at the narrow passage, not allowing anyone to approach without authorization.
The building structure is entirely made of vinyl alloy, and is heavily guarded in turns, so that the place is like a monolith, and it is difficult for even a fly to sneak in.
The sound of steady footsteps suddenly came from not far away.
The Forbidden Palace envoy at the entrance of the passage couldn't help but be startled, and immediately became more alert and alert.
It doesn't take a while.
A tall figure gradually appeared in everyone's field of vision, heading straight towards the entrance of the passage.
"who!?"
The leader of the Forbidden Palace envoy frowned and immediately shouted: "According to the Emperor's decree, this is the forbidden area of the royal family. Without the Holy Emperor's will, no one is allowed to approach without authorization!"
Wearing golden armor and a war helmet, there is a strange long sword on his back.
The girl in front of him was silent and walked forward as usual, completely ignoring the warning just now.
"Back off!"
A group of Forbidden Palace envoys immediately assumed a fighting stance.
The leader secretly gritted his teeth and yelled loudly: "If you dare to take a step closer, you will be executed on the spot immediately!"
Silently raised his head.
Under the golden battle helmet, there is a plump and beautiful face, which is charming but exudes a suffocating sharpness.
"Get out of the way, good dogs don't block the way..."
The girl's face was expressionless and she still went her own way: "Don't force me to take action."
Before all the Forbidden Palace envoys could react, a powerful sword intent suddenly emanated from the girl's body, whizzing past like a volley of ten thousand swords, instantly suppressing all the Forbidden Palace envoys present.
"This, this breath..."
The leader of the forbidden palace messenger was stunned, with large beads of sweat oozing out from his forehead.
Not only were everyone's bodies unable to move instinctively, but every hair on their body felt a faint sting.
The girl in front of him seemed to have turned into a peerless sharp sword, and the aura she exuded was chilling, as if she might be killed on the spot if she was not careful.
"No rudeness!"
An angry shout immediately stopped the confrontation between the two sides. Lin Zerong, who was dressed in fine clothes, came to the crowd with his hands behind his hands, raised his chin and glanced at the group of Forbidden Palace envoys in charge of guarding in front of him.
"See Mr. Lin!"
See this.
The envoys of the Forbidden Palace did not dare to neglect and quickly saluted him respectfully.
After many years, Lin Zerong is now the powerful minister of the capital. He is not only the general person in charge of Daxia's "Coordinating Office", but also serves as the general manager of the Forbidden Palace Envoy. It can be said that he has great power.
The key is--
The young emperor Xuanyuan Hong, who has long since grown up, has great trust in him, almost to the point of obeying his words.
This also caused the Lin family's power in the imperial city to reach an unprecedented peak, and it was astonishing that one person was less than ten thousand people.
"No need to act so panicked."
Lin Zerong narrowed his eyes and said in an arrogant tone: "She is an orthodox descendant of the royal family, not just a random person. It's okay to let her in to visit the prisoner. You guys should get out of the way."
Hear the words.
The envoys of the Forbidden Palace were suddenly stunned on the spot. The leader of the night watchman couldn't help but smile bitterly and said in a deep voice: "But, without His Majesty's handwriting, this..."
"I will inform your Majesty."
Frowning.
Seeing that the other party seemed to be still a little hesitant, Lin Zerong said slightly displeasedly: "What's the matter? Don't my words still count?!"
"The villain dare not!"
He lowered his head in fear.
The leader of the forbidden palace messenger was sweating profusely. He turned around quickly and raised his hand. The guards under his command immediately dispersed and made way for the girl in front of him.
He nodded with satisfaction.
Lin Zerong came to the girl's side and sneered softly: "Don't forget the agreement between us."
There was a pause.
Lin Zerong emphasized: "Besides, don't stay in there for too long, otherwise it will be difficult for me to explain to His Majesty."
He ignored Lin Zerong's warning.
The girl in front of her snorted softly, raised her hand to lift the white cloak behind her, and walked towards the deep passage.
It was impossible to see anything in the dark and damp corridor. Not only was the visibility very low, but an inexplicable chill came from all directions. Even the sound of water dripping by my ears never stopped for a moment.
Fortunately, the terrain here is not complicated, and there are no unnecessary forks in the road.
Walking alone to the deepest part of the corridor, the girl finally came to a cell.
Under the dim lights, an old and stooped figure was squatting in the corner of the cell. The confined space and harsh environment filled the air here with an inexplicable rancid smell.
"Um?"
Startled slightly.
The old man with disheveled hair in the cell suddenly raised his head and asked: "Who is outside? This aura does not resemble that of an ordinary guard..."
Close your eyes.
The girl in front of her bit her lip lightly, then took off her heavy helmet, revealing her long black hair.
"Xuanyuan Qiong, a descendant of the royal family..."
Kneel down on one knee in front of the cell.
The girl lowered her head and said with a respectful expression: "Meet the Emperor's uncle!"
Hear the words.
The old man in the dark cell suddenly stood up, his dirty and tattered clothes suddenly swaying messily. He wanted to step forward to check what was going on, but was restrained by the iron chain on his ankle. He stopped halfway.
He is none other than the regent who was persecuted and imprisoned for many years for admonishing the young emperor - Xuanyuan Zhong!
"Qiong'er, is it really you?!" Xuanyuan Zhong asked excitedly.
"it's me......"
Already burst into tears.
In front of him, Xuanyuan Qiong knelt down on one knee, gritted his teeth and sobbed softly: "Uncle Emperor, Qiong'er has been released from confinement."
"Okay, okay..."
He couldn't help but slumped on the ground.
His wrinkled old face was filled with relief. Xuanyuan Zhong still had the majesty and magnanimity of the former regent. Besides being dirty, his body was even more rickety and old.
Like an ordinary old man who is about to die, he looks down and out and is already as thin as a stick.
"Unexpectedly, after more than five hundred years, someone from our Xuanyuan clan will finally be recognized by the ancestors and inherit the power of the ancestors."
Nodding silently.
Xuanyuan Zhong grinned and said sadly: "This is really the blessing of my royal family, the blessing of Great Xia!"
