I opened my eyes quietly.

I don't remember what I saw in my dream, I just felt ...... It's sad, indescribably sour.

"Your Majesty."

Tasha led the slave girls to bow down in front of the bed, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is very happy." ”

The female slaves said in unison in their crisp voices: "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”

I sat up and nodded, "Get up." There are so many things to do today, and I can't do it without hurrying up. ”

Tasha stood up, she also wore a new and bright palace dress today, took a silk dress and came to serve me to get up, the noisy voices and music gradually came from outside the palace, Tasha said: "Your Majesty, you have received a lot of congratulatory gifts in the past two days, you haven't had time to pass the purpose one by one, and many people rushed to the gate of the palace early this morning, up and down Egypt, how many people rushed here, just to see this happy event." ”

Surrounded by twelve noble ladies, dressed in fine clothes and gold ornaments, each holding auspicious objects of different significance, I went to the temple fountain to bathe and change my clothes. I stripped off my silk coat and stepped into the pool. The palace ladies poured incense and flower petals into the pool, and the prayers of the priests gradually sounded outside the hall.

The door outside was shut, and the thud came in, but I didn't know why I remembered that I had gone to the Valley of the Kings to bid farewell to Immorton. Finally, the sound of closing the sarcophagus in the dark.

The female musicians of the temple were singing lingering and cheerful love songs outside, and I lowered my head, and droplets of water meandered down my face and fell into the pool.

If people don't die, there is hope. When a man dies, all his vows and hopes are turned to ashes, scattered with the wind, and there is no trace to be found. Death is the last despair.

At this time, I couldn't help but think of him.

Died in a distant foreign land, died at the hands of the enemy, died in a place without a lover to accompany him, died in intrigue and intrigue, died in the unwillingness that everything was not perfect, all the life and death promises have been buried by the tomb in the collapsed Valley of the Kings, and everything has become empty words.

And I can't do anything for him. I didn't avenge him, I didn't stay by his side, I didn't even ...... Soon after he left, he was already going to marry someone else. I just silently saw him off, holding his cold hand, and I could no longer hope for the unpredictable future.

I have a strange feeling about the strange tragedy in the Valley of the Kings.

I am not afraid of that terrible unknown power, and I don't want to run away.

I even vaguely looked forward to the truth of all this, and I longed to know what the legend of the scorpion was all about.

Perhaps it was the punishment of the Babylonians for the foreign invaders, the wrath of Anubis that implicated all the creatures there.

Maybe...... Whose unwilling resentment rose into the sky, wanting to seek justice for himself.

Perhaps, nothing, everything is just a coincidence, nothing more than a terrible devilish sandstorm and a sudden collapse of the sand......

I raised my hand and watched as the water trickled down from between my fingers, and the crystal droplets fell back to the surface of the water one by one, just like ...... A tear in the eye.

"Your Majesty, it's almost, please don't miss the time."

I turned, and Tasha was lying on the ground outside behind a curtain of gauze. I said, "Prepare the dress." ”

Underwear, petticoats, long skirts, overskirts, overalls, strands, and finally the outer gown. While Tasha and the ladies of the court served me to put on these intricate garments one by one, they smeared lock by lock of my hair with perfume and head oil, adorned it with gold ornaments, and fastened it to the top of my head with a hair pin, and a cloak made of gold thread and feather feathers of birds, the hem of which was long and dragged to the ground, and the flower ornaments on it resembled the wings of a golden eagle.

Finally, I sat down with the tiara on, Tasha half-bent on her knees, put the golden crown firmly on my head, adjusted the front and back positions, fastened the tie, and fastened it with a pin.

"It's a bit hard, but please bear with me."

I nodded.

Tasha took out the lipstick again, and I said, "No need for that. ”

Today's weather ...... It didn't seem so hot, otherwise I would have fainted if it had been as hot as the weather had been the other day.

"Your Majesty, there are many people who have come to watch the ceremony today, including the people, nobles, and envoys from all over the world, you should be the most flawless and bright." Tasha whispered, "A little makeup, right?" ”

I looked at the brilliant ornaments reflected in the bronze mirror, those splendid and rich clothes, but I seemed to have no sense of existence wrapped in them. I looked at my blurred face in the mirror as if I were looking at a stranger I didn't know.

"Okay, just paint."

Ta dressed me carefully, I just closed my eyes and counted in my mind, exhaled, inhaled......

The various sounds in my ears seemed to gradually fade away, and there was silence around me, which made people feel uneasy.

"Your Majesty, please depart. The wedding ceremony will be held in the main hall of the shrine. ”

The priest held a scepter into my hand, and I took out one of the golden sutras of the sun that I had placed aside, and gave it to him to hold.

With everything ready, I stood up and turned slowly.

The twelve noble ladies and the twelve female musicians of the temple followed me along a path lined with long tapestry.

Many people stood on both sides of the road, and I saw Idhombu, I saw Sinuye, I saw Unas, I saw many people I knew and I didn't know, and their faces had different expressions that were worth exploring. Idhombu had a smile on his face, but it seemed like it was glued to his face, so unreliable. He's been working hard for this wedding these days, but I think the reason why he's so haggard is probably ...... A large part of it was what Holdia did, and it was a heavy blow to him.

Sinuye's expression was nervous, and although his gaze was scanning around for vigilance, it still fell on me from time to time.

The last time I heard someone mention it, Sinuye was about to become a father. He should have let go of all those former moods, right?

Unas stood in the ranks of the guards on the periphery, and because of the celebration, their weapons were wrapped in a layer of colored silk yarn, which did not look like weapons, but like colored ceremonial staffs. He was different from Sinouye, his gaze did not look at me from beginning to end.

I walked slowly, step by step.

The petals of flowers that people have picked float in the air, the lotus flowers that are tied together in their hands are waving, and an intoxicating fragrance floats in the air.

I looked up slightly, and Memphis was watching me in a splendid gown, with a crown and a scepter. His expression was serious and could not hide his joy, although it was still far away, but I seemed to be able to experience the complex and excited mood.

It's not a long road, but I feel like it...... It seems to have gone through a long, long journey.

As I reached the bottom of the steps of the main hall, Memphis greeted me slowly from the steps, holding his scepter flat in one hand and reaching out to me with the other.

"Isis."

I lowered my eyes and slowly lifted one hand into the palm of his.

Memphis took me by the arm and walked up the steps of the temple together.
