This year is the 112th year of the Lan Calendar, midsummer.
Lan Ye Empire.
This is a powerful empire that is not old. Counting from the first year of Lan Li when Emperor Yuan Tai named the country Lan Ye, it has only been a mere 112 years. But no one can deny that this is the first year of Lan Li. One of the three most awesome empires.
The Lanye Empire is located at the northern end of the continent, surrounded by the sea on three sides. Only the south has long national borders with other countries. In terms of area, the three empires are roughly equal, and together they have divided up more than 80% of the land of the two continents, but at the same time , it also lost the opportunity to expand-when you face a behemoth similar to yourself, no matter who it is, you will choose to think twice before taking action.
In short, since the great emperor who personally defeated the gods a hundred years ago surrendered the ancient city of Ye Ye with the academy, the empire has enjoyed peace for one hundred and ten years. This huge and powerful northern empire has never been baptized by war since its establishment. Relying on convenient water transportation and fertile land, the people who have lived here for thousands of years have ushered in their best period.
Now, let us ride horses, starting from the small igloo on the shore of the holy lake, and ride along the lakeshore for hundreds of miles. On the way, we will pass countless flowers, grass, fallen leaves and flying leaves. We ignore it for the time being. In front of a broken ice bridge, Please stop your arrogant steps.
This is a huge ice crystal python. It plunged its body into the lake, leaving only a tail like a huge broken bridge.
This is the Ice Crystal Tunnel, the only god's creation in the world. It is entirely made of ice sheets as thin as cicada wings. It does not even use any metal or magic devices. It is such an incredible underwater tunnel, dozens of feet below. An ice and snow path was opened at the bottom of the holy lake. According to legend, it was the same as the snow-clothed tunnel in Broken Star Lake, both of which were built by Saint Ye Ye. Not to mention how the thin ice could bear tens of feet of water pressure without any damage, it was only said that it was built over two hundred years ago. The fact that its ancient existence is still fresh today is enough for mortals to marvel at it.
This ice crystal tunnel is the only umbilical cord connecting Lanlan Imperial Capital to the outside world. Thousands of heavy carriages pass through it every day, transporting cloth, food, tea, porcelain, and porcelain to this great city on the lake. Heavy silver horn. It's not that Lanlan doesn't have its own water transportation, but it's because it's extremely difficult to get the qualifications to sail in the holy lake.
The difficulty is roughly equivalent to asking a commoner to obtain the title of earl.
And if there is a war, the ice crystal tunnel will be closed, and no other imperial warships can enter the Holy Lake, which is an inland lake. While sitting on natural dangers, this lake is also home to what is known as the world's strongest navy - the invincible fleet that once defeated the gods at the hands of Emperor Yuantai: Wings of Flowing Frost. Therefore, Lanlan is also known as the city that will never fall.
At the bottom of the holy lake, you follow the merchants and travelers walking among the colorful fish. If you are curious and touch the thin ice that separates you from the outside water, the slight coolness seems to be just touching the pebbles at the bottom of the stream in early spring. . As for the hardness, a student of Ye Ye once discovered the leftover borneol used by the saint in the academy, and out of curiosity, he conducted research on this subject. Later, he was named a tenured professor of Ye Ye Academy in his paper that year. Describing this material: "We have always thought that this kind of ice flakes are just harder ice. However, can it withstand the flames of molten copper for a quarter of an hour without melting the ice? And because it is only slightly thicker than gauze paper Is the ice capable of bearing up to eleven hits from a heavy hammer without being damaged? I personally think that the saint used the simplest and purest water to create a new material that we have never heard of."
In the center of this eternal city, there is a magnificent palace with high eaves and wide arches. Here is where the Lanye royal family lives, and on the side of the palace is a stone pillar hall with white vaults.
For many Lanye people, the most sacred and inviolable place in the empire is not the royal palace, but the stone pillar hall next to the palace.
Because its name is: Imperial Council Chamber.
This luxurious marble palace, which is more than twenty feet high, enjoys the highest authority over the entire empire. The founding emperor of Lanye, with his incredible enlightenment and foresight, endowed this marble hall with supreme power in the form of a code. In front of it, even the most proud emperor of Lanye must lower his forehead humbly.
What kind of existence is the Lanye Imperial Council?
To be precise, it consists of three parts, namely the Council of Ten, the Orchid Leaf House and the Royal Family.
The Council of Ten naturally only has ten people, and they are generally considered to be the ten most powerful people in the empire. But this is not the case. It is true that most of these ten people have strength above the heaven level, but the reason why they are sitting here has nothing to do with their strength. In short, they include the leader of Lanye's largest mercenary group, the most powerful president of the chamber of commerce, two city lords, two generals, a former cabinet prime minister, two princes, and a dean. Naturally, there is no doubt that this dean is from Ye Ye College.
Together they hold the lifeblood of this empire, and they are the undisputed kings in their respective fields.
There are a total of one thousand and one members of the Lanye House, and the extra person is the speaker. They come from all the fields and lakes of this empire. They are selected in proportion to represent the will of the people of the entire empire. In fact, they also have The greatest power among the three is the power to amend laws and the power to review and inspect the cabinet.
The third party is the royal family. Generally, only the emperor and the queen are present here. These are special circumstances. The presence of the royal family in the council hall cannot exceed 4 people. This is also the restriction of the founding emperor. The royal family has control over the other two parties. unilateral veto power, and the normal governance of the country and the power to appoint local officials are also responsible for the cabinet and the seven ministries under the royal family.
The Imperial Parliament opens its session on the seventh day, and the session lasts for four hours, and today is the day when the Parliament opens its session.
But no one knew that as early as last night, someone came here and left some very personal things on this most noble building in Lanye.
In other words, this person is hiding in the Imperial Council Hall at this time, and she is not in a hurry to show up, because she knows what will happen if she really appears in front of those people. Although she is still very young, and although she does not look evil, it is hard for anyone to hate her at first sight, but she is a lingering blue nightmare to the Imperial Council.
Please remember her name.
Ye Qing.
