Previous Chapter

I have to say that Immorton is really talented. Killing two birds with one stone, he fabricated a fake life story, and sent the child left behind by Sinuye with Andos.

I stood in the courtyard of the temple and watched him quietly.

Immorton stood there with such composure.

If we talk about status, then the ruler of Egypt, Pharaoh Memphis is undoubtedly the most status. But...... I think that in terms of momentum, Immorton is really on par with him, and he has the same sense of calm and unshakable as a mountain.

"Let's go, if you want to see them later, it's very convenient. It's just that you don't want others to notice. ”

I nodded.

The afternoon air was roasted hot, and when inhaled into the lungs, there was a feeling that the whole person was being roasted by the heat.

"Ah, by the way, did the ladies tell you?"

"Say what?"

He was stunned for a moment, smiled slightly, and said, "Maybe they're too busy to take care of it." Nothing, it's just that Memphis seems to be running a big celebration lately, and the days are approaching, and your female officers will probably be borrowed to do their work. ”

I thought for a moment: "Is it because of the victory against the tribe in the south a while ago?" ”

It was a big victory, and the hard bones that my father couldn't gnaw when he was there were wiped out by Memphis in one fell swoop.

And since he came back, there has been a lot of discussion among those people in Upper and Lower Egypt, and there are different opinions about right and wrong. He is now holding a big celebration, which can also play a role in stabilizing people's hearts.

"I didn't have anything to do, he wanted to use manpower, so I gave it to him."

The smile on Immorton's lips deepened, and every time he smiled, I felt a sense of intoxication, as if I had drunk an old wine, and my chest was full of emotions called happiness and sweetness.

I feel so happy now.

Immorton was right, and the entire palace was immersed in a tense and expectant mood, and there was a kind of excitement on everyone's faces. The same is true of the people around me, who are constantly bringing rare gifts, clothes, and jewels to the palace...... What I liked was the beautiful pairs of ornamental fish, with scales like colorful gemstones, with a light body, and dexterous and graceful movements when swimming. After putting it in the lotus pond in front of the court, I did not forget to feed the fish once a day in the morning and evening, and the slave girl held a small box of fish food and whispered on the side: "Such a beautiful fish is really rare in the world." And coming from such a distant place, this gift is truly precious. ”

I didn't speak, I twisted the fish food and sprinkled it.

"And the Pharaoh really thinks of His Majesty Isis very important, and all these rare gifts are sent directly to you."

I didn't say anything. The fish swim in the water in a variety of ways, and the deep blue water is dotted with colorful lights.

"Well, I heard from my sister in the front hall just now that there are also specialties shipped from far away from Biteido, and they will be delivered to the harem at dinner time."

"Really?"

Beatado......

King Bitaido has already been overthrown, and Prince Izmi is the real ruler, the de facto king of Bitaido.

I hastily met him in Thebes at the time of the coup d'Γ©tat and had to work with him at that time......

I have not forgotten the humiliation and hurt he gave me, but ...... If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to defeat Sinuye's main force that time.

The relationship between people is sometimes not so simple, and it is not either kindness or hatred.

Just like between black and white, there are different shades of gray areas.

Izmi and I will never be friends, but there is no eternal hatred between nations.

I will never forget it, but I will never mention it to Memphis.

Moreover...... At that time, Immorton hurt his eye, and I am afraid that in his life, if he wants to lead the army by himself again, or fight against others, he will no longer be able to do it. My revenge can be regarded as revenge, right? If it hadn't been for the circumstances that forced me to make a contract with him, I think Immorton would have ...... will do whatever it takes to kill him.

As the sun sank in the west, the evening breeze blew from the direction of the sea, and I reached out to hold my hair and handed the bait to the slave girl beside me.

Alan knelt at my feet and saluted, "Your Majesty Isis, Your Majesty Pharaoh, please go to the front hall. ”

"Huh?"

"Tomorrow is the big celebration, and tonight has already started the feast, so ......"

"Got it." I asked, "What kind of guests have you invited?" ”

"Ah, that's a lot, not only nobles and high-ranking officials, but also people from other countries and tribes sent envoys, so it's not lively."

I smiled slightly, Memphis deliberately did this, and it also meant to show intimidation, so how could I, as a sister, not give face?

I asked people to open the door of the wardrobe, a burst of elegant fragrance came out of it, the clothes were brilliant, hung with all kinds of gorgeous clothes, Alan was stunned, I reached out and gently brushed between the decorations, the gold beads and feathers gently collided with each other, and the light sound of tinkling made people feel like they were in a fantasy.

"Hey, you don't usually wear these beautiful clothes."

I smiled and pointed to a silver-white dress: "That's it." ”

Silver threads were woven between the garments, and silver was not found in Egypt, so silver jewelry was more valuable than gold. Alan knelt down to straighten the corners of my skirt for me, and the female officer next to me took a lotus tiara wrapped in silver thread and gently buttoned it in my hair.

I took the light gauze shawl and slowly walked to the bronze mirror. The person in the mirror looked beautiful and ethereal, and I was in a trance for a moment. I don't know anyone in the mirror, and it has nothing to do with me. But as soon as I moved, the figure in the mirror also moved, and when I turned to walk, the hem of my skirt fluttered like a cloud, faintly stacked, like a real illusion.

I am her, she is me.

I didn't apply grease powder on my face, but I had a light red on my lips, the eyeliner was slender, the peacock green and silver lined eyes were extremely bright, and the curvature of the corners of the eyes seemed to be about to fly. I rode my way to the front hall, where Memphis stood at the front of the steps to greet me. He wore a snow-white robe, a gold belt, and a ring-shaped golden eagle-shaped forehead ornament on his head.

I smiled at him, and Memphis smiled, her handsome face that was momentarily intimidating.

"Sister Wang, I have something to show you."

"What is it?"

Maybe it's some kind of rare treasure. Memphis and I are both in love with each other, we are sisters and brothers, brothers and sisters. It's just that my support for him is hidden behind him, but Mephis's love for me is really shown, so that everyone can see and know.

He took me by the hand and walked to the front of the temple, the night was falling, the platform in front of the temple was lit with bright copper lamps, and there was something placed in the middle of the platform, covered with a large silk cloth, and the shape should be a humanoid statue.

"What is this?" When I looked up, the statue was very tall, almost half as tall as the big pillar next to it.

"Sister Wang, tomorrow is your birthday, and this statue will be transported to Karnak tomorrow and placed in the temple of Elsis that I have built for you."

Memphis?

I turned to look at him in amazement.

Oh, birthday...... I really don't remember.

Memphis raised his hand, and the attendants next to him tore the silk cloth with all their might, revealing the golden statue inside. The face of the statue was very similar to mine, and it looked dignified and solemn. I raised my hand to cover my mouth, I couldn't speak for a long time, my eyes were hot, and I almost lost my temper.

"Sister Wang, do you like it?"

I nodded, my voice a little choked: "I like it very much." ”

He smiled slightly, turned around and bowed his head.

I turned my head, and Immorton walked slowly over in his dark robes.

Memphis took me by the hand and took two steps forward, and Imorton stopped and stood in front of the two of us.

"Immorton, you and Sister Wang love each other with all our hearts, and we will never be separated from each other. Although I am reluctant, I hope that Sister Wang will be happy. ”

I looked at Memphis fixedly, his eyes were also a little red, and his voice trembled slightly: "You have to take good care of my sister Wang in the future, otherwise, I will never spare you." ”

Immorton took my palm from his hand, and held it firmly and gently, his voice calm and firm, and every word seemed to be deeply engraved in my heart.

"You can rest assured, in this life, I will never let down Isis, and I swear by my soul that I will make her happy and happy for the rest of her life."

All the voices around me seemed to disappear in an instant, and the silence in my ears was surprising.

I saw only Immorton in my eyes, the cool wind blowing on his face, his eyes deep and wide, like the boundless ocean. My hair and robe's straps were fluttering in the wind, and I felt unsteady on my feet, as if I were ...... With the wings of joy and love, it is about to fly.

At this moment, there is only me left in his world, and there is only one him in my world.

"Okay, Sister Wang, let's go in." Memphis smiled and said, "Tomorrow the statue will arrive at Karnak, and then I will ask the priest to celebrate your wedding in the new temple." Of course, because of the hurry, you can't invite too many people, but these guests at today's banquet will be there tomorrow. In the past, my wedding with Sister Wang was not finalized, and Imorton was now a farmer, no longer a priest, so ...... Sister Wang doesn't need to scruples, just do what you want to do. ”

Memphis?

I turned to look at him.

I was married to him before, and now he ...... And then make such a decision?

"I want my sister to be happy, instead of always hiding in front of people, you should stand side by side under the sun."

I hung my head and pursed my lips.

This...... This bad boy, when did he learn to be so sensational, a few words sound indifferent at first glance, but in the bottom of his heart, it is like a thunderbolt.

I never thought that Memphis would be willing to do this for me.

He seemed unaware of my agitation and smiled and invited me to sit down, with Immorton's seat next to me.

I didn't know what to say, so I just didn't say anything. Memphis raised the golden cup to invite everyone to drink, he talked and laughed freely, swaying freely, from the aggressive domineering of the forward has now become subtle and restrained, but more powerful, people spontaneously have a sense of admiration.

Those guests are not fools, and what the Egyptian pharaoh said was decided, how could others doubt and object?

The statue shone brightly in the firelight, and looked resplendent in gold.

Memphis doesn't know how long he's been preparing, but she's only hiding it from me.

I look at Immorton, he may not know about the wedding, but he must know that this statue is still for my birthday.

He looked at me and explained in a low voice, "This is what Pharaoh meant, and he wants to surprise you." ”

I looked at him with disgust, but in my heart I only felt sweet and happy.

It was at this time that some of the fungible people came to offer gifts, and they came to curry favor with Memphis, such as swords, famous horses, jewelry, and so on, all of which were priceless and hard to find in the world. Among them was a man from a small country in the south, who presented a necklace of diamonds, shining with brilliance and brilliance.

Memphis asked someone to show me the necklace: "Sister Wang, this is the best thing you can wear at the ceremony tomorrow." ”

I nodded.

It's really beautiful, it's rare to be so pure and crystalline, it's really beautiful.

There are also dancers and beauties, and they are ordered to perform in court, with fragrant clothes and sideburns, flowing music and dancing light, I drank two more glasses of wine, and I already felt a little drunk, squinting at the dancing girl's fire-like skirt shadow, and the tambourine sound seemed to be hitting people's ear drums.

In my confusion, I heard a man say, "Your Majesty the Great Pharaoh, the Sun King of Egypt, the Lord of my tribe has commanded us to come and congratulate us on the occasion and to offer the most precious gift in the world." ”

The most precious gift? After so many rare treasures had been unveiled in front of him, what could he call the most precious thing to compare with all the gifts presented by those people in front of him?

"The Nile is shining brightly and shining with golden light. There is a song that has been passed down for a long time, and when the sun rises on the Nile, there will be a golden beauty and the most wise and heroic pharaoh. We saw this legend on the banks of the Nile and it really came to life. ”

A few seconds after the man finished speaking, my wine flew away, and I sat up straight, watching the man clap his hands triumphantly as he lifted a delicate long box.

Is he talking about ......

Man in the box...... Will it really be what we think?

"Your Majesty, please come and open this box with your own hands and verify the manifestation of the legend!"

Memphis placed his hand on his heart and slowly stood up.

He walked down the steps step by step, and I only felt that my heart was in my throat, and I didn't dare to look at his expression.

If, if it is not what we suspected

The music and dancing stopped, and the singing stopped.

Everyone's eyes fell on the box.

Memphis pulled out the long sword at his waist, held his breath, and the tip of the sword picked up the golden silk rope tied on it, and then gently pulled the lid of the box.
