  Chapter 129   Birds in Cage Linyuan City is located in the Imperial court of Great Yan King, named after 'Luohunyuan' near the capital.

Fallen Soul Abyss is a Great Rift Valley, the narrowest part is only half a mile, and the widest part has become a basin, traversing the Yuyao Island, almost tore the Yuyaozhou into two pieces; and this rift valley The instigator was the Southern Lord'Stealing Pill', who broke free from the shackles of Heavenly Dao.

Under the Quanyu Yaozhou cultivator work with a common purpose, the extinction of the natural disasters has long been suppressed, and the Fallen Soul Abyss has also stabilized, becoming a Secret Realm similar to the barren mountain; although it was lost during the war. Nine Sects’ magic weapon has already been scoured by Nine Sects, but there will always be two pieces left, waiting for the benefactor in some places where no one has set foot before, attracting cultivators from all sides.

Luohunyuan is too long, Linyuan City is located in the middle of Luohunyuan, there are several hundred li away from the rift valley; there are ominous beasts, Spirit Beast, Great Yan Dynasty in Luohunyuan A checkpoint was built between the capital and Luohunyuan. The people are forbidden to step in to avoid accidents. Only people in the cultivation can enter. The name of the checkpoint becomes "Linyuan Port" over time.

Compared to the immortal Linyuan Port, which is flying all over the sky, Linyuan City, which is not too far away, looks much calmer. Apart from its huge scale, it is no different from a mortal city.

Linyuan City is built with 108 squares. There are eight main streets across the city, about 16 feet wide, and three thousand willows are planted along the banks; there are three long vertical streets and Azure Dragon Street in the middle. , The imperial city directly south of the city.

The population of Great City is no less than one million. Whenever the sun sinks into the mountains and the lights are on, Linyuan City is like a giant beast that occupies the vastness between Heaven and Earth-a street that weaves vertically and horizontally. The alley is the blood vessels of the giant beast, the constant flow of pedestrians is the blood of the giant beast, and the heart of this giant beast is the Great Yan imperial city at the top of the mortal world.

At the end of Azure Dragon Street, the cascades of pavilions and palaces pile up the largest imperial city in Yuyaozhou.

To the east of the imperial city, there is a slightly smaller palace called Xingyan Palace. It was originally the site of the Great Yan imperial city before it was expanded, and was later renamed as the East Palace; now in the Imperial Capital Immortal mortal people generally call this place the "Toffee Palace" or the "Toffee Hall". The "Second Sage" of the Great Yan Dynasty, the imperial concubine Shangguan Lingye, lived here.

Although it is the former site of imperial city, the scale of the Toffee Palace is still very large. Without the various internal affairs agencies of imperial city, there is only one person living in it, making the city of Omiya seem rare and only bright. With little lights.

On the branches of the moon, in the great hall in the middle of the Toffee Palace, four giant winding dragon pillars support the dome of gold and jade in glorious splendor.

A beautiful woman in palace costume sits on the carved soft couch in the middle of the great hall, looking through the bead curtain in front of her, looking at Yinheng Mountain, which is invisible at the end of the field of vision.

The age of the beautiful woman in the palace dress cannot be seen from the appearance. The long black hair hangs down from her shoulders and is scattered on the gorgeous palace dress. The color is crystal clear as jade. The pale-gold waistcoat is placed on the shoulder and embroidered. The belt decorated with auspicious patterns, tied up at the waist, wearing a golden bead hairpin, elegant and elegant, looks like just a beautiful and alluring improbable secular concubine.

But the eyes of the beautiful women in palace costumes are different from those of ordinary women. They don’t have the slightest smoke and fire, and between the clear eyes, they seem to contain the vast Star Sea, empty and lonely, as if from above Nine Heavens, Looking at all kinds of in front of him, he was clearly close at hand, but it felt like they were thousands of miles away.

This look is very similar to the woman in the golden skirt at the top of Yinheng Mountain, but if someone takes a closer look, you can see the difference between the two-the woman in the golden skirt at Yinheng Mountain looks like the Star Sea in the sky and the feet Mountains and rivers; and the eyes of the palace-dressed beauties can only see the vastness of the sky, but not the thickness of the earth.

Unfortunately, there are very few people in the world who can see these two women at the same time, and no one can put two transcendent women side by side to observe and play, naturally no one will notice. at this point.

The clear and beautiful eyes of Star River are implied, so that the imperial city of the imperial city, but isolated from the world, under the background of the eaves corner palace lantern, it is like a pear blossom between three thousand palace pavilions. .

This innate dust, coupled with the makeup of a secular concubine, is like Fairy on Nine Heavens accidentally falling into the mundane, beautiful and alluring with a bit of cage Sparrow-like sadness.

The beautiful woman in the palace dress is Shangguan Lingye, and the owner of this palace of concubines. The reason why she was called the "Second Sage" was not because of the detached background of Sharp Iron Mansion, which emptied the sovereign of Great Yan from power, but because of the high level of hard work and the high level of seniority that earned her such a title.

Shangguan Lingye has lived in this palace for 80 years and has experienced three emperors. Now the Great Yan emperor has to call her grandmother.

Eighty years is also a long period of time for people in cultivation.

Shangguan Lingye was the Sharp Iron Mansion green veteran of the year, born as an immortal, and crowned Nine Sects with extraordinary talents. At that time, she had a special honorary title called'Little Shangguan'. Everyone in the world regarded her as the heir of Shangguan Old Ancestor, even she herself thought so.

But one day, the person sitting on the top of Yinheng Mountain threw her a secular marriage letter and asked her to enter the palace as the concubine of the Great Yan King’s Imperial Emperor, without any reason, even Neither of them showed up in person.

Shangguan Lingye felt that Old Ancestor's arrangement was so meaningful that he left Sharp Iron Mansion and entered this huge cage.

This has been eighty years.

In the turn of the spring and autumn of eighty years, Shangguan Lingye watched his nominal Husband, from being in prime of life to becoming very old, and finally dying on the sickbed; to the new monarch, repeat The same Life and Death Reincarnation Cycle; then looking at the babbled child, he becomes a monarch sitting thousands of miles in the mountains and rivers, life and death seem to have no end.

And she stayed in this mortal city, dealing with insignificant mundane matters all day; the cultivation is like a boat on the ground, if you don’t advance, you will retreat, Shangguan Lingye watched that she hadn’t paid attention to it. The weak in here has become the core figure of various sects; watching rounds of newcomers, catching up from behind, walked in front of her.

In 80 years, Shangguan Lingye was confident that she could reach the top of the world, even to the front of Old Ancestor, but she stayed in a worldly prison without making any progress. ten years.

Shangguan Lingye thought at first that Old Ancestor was polishing her, but after 80 years, even the best unpolished jade has been polished away. What's the point of such polishing?    ……

There are no palace servants in the great hall, only a few bronze cranes burning incense. On the side of the incense table, there is a portrait of a woman in a golden skirt, burning three Stick incense.

The silence of absolute silence lasted for an unknown period of time. A water curtain slowly emerged from the bead curtain, and gradually condensed into a picture—on the vast river, the ferry is galloping against the current, and the top of the ship building. , Squatting a burly beard man.

"Martial Uncle? Can you see it? Hello?..."

The rough voice echoed in the great hall.

The beautiful woman in palace costume put her mind away and leaned on the soft couch, her soft but cool voice, and a green jade bead curtain came out:    "How?"

Situ was shocked behind the water curtain. After squatting on the Masked Moon Sect emblem on the top of the ferry, he cautiously noticed all around:

"Young Mansion Lord has already boarded the ship, and he will arrive in Linyuan City, Old in ten days. An mortal little girl incarnation of Ancestor, has been in front of him, following closely. I didn’t want to take a boat, but I didn’t take this boat. The next one had to wait half a month. I don’t know if Old Ancestor found out that I didn’t..."

The beautiful woman in the palace dress gently raised her hand, the water curtain dissipated in the temple, and the dead silence of the past was restored.

She got up from the soft couch, opened the bead curtain, came to the picture scroll with three incense sticks, and looked up at the woman on it. Being clear within both eyes, emotions are constantly changing, and occasionally negative emotions such as resentment, dissatisfaction, etc. may be revealed without any cover. After all, the person in the picture scroll has not seen her for many years, and may have forgotten her a long time ago.

She didn’t understand, how could the Old Ancestor, who lived above Nine Heavens and was almost omnipotent in the past, choose such an ordinary mortal to become the green chief of Sharp Iron Mansion, even at the expense of surrendering his status to that person personally Protect the way.

She didn't see that the person was better than her. The only bright spot from beginning to end might be the ability to "sword one" in one hand.

But this bright spot is very different from her back then; she was born as an immortal, and the difference between Heaven and Earth from the beginning of her birth. There are only things she doesn’t want to do, she doesn’t do nothing. When it comes to the matter, if she takes the sword dao, she will not be half way worse than the ordinary man, and will even do better than him.

But the person chosen by Old Ancestor happened to put her in this earthly palace for eighty years; she was not convinced, but she didn't even have the qualifications to talk to Old Ancestor... …

The beautiful woman in palace costume stood in front of the portrait for a long time, her eyes changed, and she finally couldn’t hold her back, she asked:

"That Southern Desolate wild boy, what's the point? Better than me?"

The silence in the great hall, with a tone of anger and injustice, seems to be a little crazy to himself when alone.

After receiving no response for a long time, the beautiful woman in palace costume raised her hand and pulled out three sticks of incense from the incense altar that had been enshrined for decades, and smashed it on the portrait of the woman in the golden skirt:    " I have been in Linyuan City for 80 years, and I have been conscientiously assisting the king and supervising the courtiers. There has never been a day of slack, and I have never missed one thing. Why did I not do it badly?"

"You locked me up here." Eighty years, at least give me an explanation, what did I do wrong?! I am also your discipline, why do you treat me like this?"

"I know, you are afraid of me, you are afraid that I will exceed You, taking your place, exiled me to the mortal world, didn’t you?"

"You speak!"

……

gradually hysterical His words, from start to finish, are all a one-man show. You can listen to the beautiful women in the palace costumes. Only the palace lanterns can drag a long shadow on the ground.

Shadow's shoulders trembled slightly.

The beautiful woman in palace clothes clenched her hands tightly, her eyes were red, and after staring at the portrait woman for a long time, she picked up the incense altar and smashed it over.

Dong Dong——

The copper incense altar played a few times in the great hall and made a few muffled noises.

The beautiful woman in the palace costume tried her best to restrain her emotions, but couldn't restrain the grievances and injustices in her heart. She gritted her teeth and said:    "Okay, you break my road, and I won't let others live, you are believing or not I put that kid..."

The words stopped abruptly.

Even if the woman in the portrait didn't respond, she was just a dead thing, and the beautiful woman in palace costume didn't dare to say the angry words afterwards.

Because she knew that that person would definitely hear her, but she just didn't want to respond to her.

gu lu lu ——

The incense burner rolled several times, and finally stopped in the center of the great hall.

The beautiful woman in palace costume stood for a long time, waiting for the portrait's response, even if it was a sentence of scolding.

Unfortunately, the results have been obtained, which are exactly the same as in the past few decades.

With the passage of time, the mood of the beautiful women in palace clothes gradually calmed down.

She took a breath, turned around and picked up the incense burner, placed it under the portrait again, took three sticks of incense, lit it and inserted it.

When the blue smoke ignited, the beautiful woman in palace costume returned to the elegant and poised Imperial Empress, and gave a serious salute:    "Lost self-control, also Please don’t blame Master."

But this sentence is also just for yourself...
