In the moonlight, the city of red roots.

A private room.

Queen Redroot stands quietly in front of the window.

Her expression was sometimes melancholy, sometimes serene.

Whenever this time.

Ant Valley is quiet, and her body and mind are showered in the bright moonlight, enjoying the rare purity of the day.

This queen, she really doesn't want to be.

Deep down, I prefer to be an ordinary worker ant, working at sunrise and resting at sunset, my heart is like water, and there is no great joy or sorrow.

As a queen, she was tired, bitter and lonely.

But she had no choice, who made her born to be a princess? Who could really get rid of the arrangement of fate?

In front of the independent window, there are many thoughts.

I remember that on the first day of marriage, she was looking forward to a happy life with her husband and wife, and was full of joy to welcome her first honeymoon in life, when her dearest lover died suddenly the next morning, so hurried that she didn't even have time to say a word of goodbye, as if cursed by a mysterious invisible vicious term.

Not only her, but all the queens of the ant tribe suffered from their first marriage, which means that on the first day of their marriage, they all became poor widows.

And this is only the beginning of bad luck.

Because, after she became a mother and had tens of thousands of children, before she had time to witness their growth with a loving mother's eyes, she had to meet their death with miserable eyes.

Every day a daughter is killed, every day a daughter is born. She is used to seeing her own flesh and blood, constantly coming and going between the cycle of life and death.

Again and again, the white-haired people sent the black-haired people.

Let her heart repeatedly burst on the verge of collapse.

……

Faced with the untimely death of her husband, there is nothing she can do!

Faced with her daughters in the cardamom years, they left her one by one, and the only thing she could do was to live every day!

Fill one life with another.

But the wounds and guilt in my heart can never be filled.

Not even for a long time!

Why why?

Why was fate so cruel to her!

Every silent night, this question tears her heart countless times!

She was in pain, she roared, she was helpless, she was numb.

She is unwilling but unable to do anything.

If she lives in the human world.

Then she must be the most miserable queen in history, there is no one.

This!

It's my life!

It's the life of all the ant queens!

Finally, she chose to accept her fate.

Choose to be this queen well.

Until the day when the tentacles are no longer able to raise themselves.

……

"Your Excellency, the Minister of Statistics asks to see you!" a crisp voice sounded beneath him.

This is the voice of her personal maid Ant Tinghua.

It's a maid and a daughter.

The Queen's thoughts were interrupted, she sighed, and when she turned around, a loving smile immediately changed to her face.

She often taught her daughter to face the hardships of life with a smile at all times, and the creed of life that she had personally formulated in the tribe had to start from her face.

She often has two groups of people around her.

A group of people are guard ants, arranged to patrol outside the living room, guarding her personal safety 24 hours a day, according to the squadron establishment of 1,500 people in peacetime, and it will increase tenfold to 15,000 in wartime. And they are all the toughest, most elite and most capable soldiers and ants in the tribe.

Because in any ant tribe, the queen is the most important, core and critical being, even if the tribe is completely wiped out by the enemy, as long as the queen is alive, this tribe can make a comeback.

Ants are extremely special animals.

Not only is it very different from humans and most mammals, but it is also truly different from the insect kingdom.

The ant queen has amazing fertility, and after the marriage, the sperm in her body is enough for her to last 15 to 20 years, that is, to use them until the end of their lives.

The queen of the leafcutter ant tribe can give birth to more children than the total population of 1.4 billion people in China, which is equivalent to the total number of births of 6 or 700 million human mothers in their lifetimes.

And.

Unlike humans and most other animals, she can be born every year, every month, every day, whenever she wants, and can give birth until the end of her life.

What's even more eye-catching is.

She can also control the sex and number of births. That is to say, you can give birth to as many as you want, and if you want to give birth to a man, you can give birth to a boy and a girl if you want to give birth to a girl.

This makes human beings extremely envious, jealous and hateful!

In the ant tribe, the queen is higher than a qiē!

The queen is born and the queen is born, and the queen dies.

As long as the queen survives, the tribe will live forever!

Therefore, every tribe member from the 2cm tall soldier ant to the 0.5cm tall gardener ant, once the life of the Queen Mother is threatened, all of them will show their teeth and claws, and they will not be afraid of death, even if they die with the enemy, they must also ensure that the Queen Mother is safe and sound!

Long live the Queen, long live long live!

……

The other group of people are serving worker ants, arranged in the living room, accompanying her 24 hours a day, carefully taking care of her diet and daily life, the number is not large, only 150 people, but all of them are one in a hundred, all of them are the nursing elite selected by the queen herself from the nursery class of the Tribal Survival Academy.

Ant Tinghua is the elite of this group of elites.

She is gentle, thoughtful, considerate, empathetic, and always has a smile on her face.

can always think about what the queen thinks, be anxious about what the queen is anxious about, and do what the queen does at the most critical moment.

Every time the queen has not yet spoken, she can find out the queen's mother's mind for the first time, just like the mandarin duck in the ancestor's personal body and Ping'er in Wang Xifeng's house in "Dream of Red Mansions", big and small things are done properly.

Therefore, this little girl is very much loved by the queen's mother, not a hundred miles but one in a thousand, and is designated by the queen as the chief attendant among the 150 maids around her.

……

Hear the ant flower return.

Queen Redroot couldn't help but "chuckle" in her heart.

Because as the chief attendant, this little girl has a lot of tasks, and such small things are handled by ordinary maids on weekdays, unless there is a serious incident, Ant Tinghua is busy and comes to report in person, so that she can see the queen's intentions and send the queen to give instructions as soon as possible.

What's the big deal today?

Alas, hope is not a bad thing.

The queen was a little apprehensive in her heart, the development of the tribe has not been going well recently, she was defeated by the neighboring fire ant tribe a month ago, and lost a valuable woodland......

Although Queen Honggen's heart is turbulent, her face is still calm and breezy, and the cruel tempering over the years has made her control over her facial expressions perfect.

She looked out of the window, turned around, bowed her head, and smiled.

Looking down at Ant Tinghua's face at a 75-degree angle, and reading Ant Tinghua's facial language with a penetrating gaze, if there is special bad news, this girl can't hide something in her heart, and she will definitely write it on her face.

And Ant Tinghua is at a 120-degree angle, looking up at her queen mother, every time she talks to her mother, her neck is always sore and unbearable, but she always gritted her teeth and endured it, and did not say a word.

As the most intimate maid beside her mother, she has the most experience of the pain behind the queen's mother's smile.

She works hard and has no regrets.

……

In front of the silent window, the moon shines like water.

This is a peculiar picture of a 6cm tall tribal queen looking down at a maid less than 2cm tall.

Just like in the human world, Yao Giant is looking down at the little pot friend in the kindergarten.
