Although the times are different, one thing seems to be the same.

Before the enthronement ceremony, envoys from all countries came, except Nubia, whose spies were captured by Sinuye, and the army on the border was also killed twice, and the Nubian princess Tayili plotted to kill Pharaoh...... Nubia is basically an enemy of Egypt - only this enemy is really weaker. I think Memphis will have to clean it up as soon as she's done with this part of the business.

My injuries are getting better day by day, and things are getting worse day by day. Envoys from all nations had to be warmly received and guarded with all their hearts. In these days, there is no such thing as a peaceful ally, only the strong and the weak. If you are strong, others will please you and be affectionate. If you are weak, immediately everyone will turn their faces and deny people, and they will bite at the fattest and weak places with a fierce bite, and take away all the benefits that can be plundered.

"Where else is the messenger coming today?"

"Those who arrived today have come from afar. The messengers of Bittado, the messengers of Assyria, and the messengers of Babylon......" Ari thought for a moment, "It seems that there is also an envoy from Minoa, the kingdom of the island, and it is said that he is still a priest. ”

I nodded: "It's a real headache, nothing to worry about." ”

I often feel tired, and I don't know when such a day will end?

Maybe when Memphis matures and becomes independent, I will have no worries at all, right?

At that time, I would like to take a small boat and go down the Nile, wherever it flows...... I sighed, I don't know when or when it was a luxury that could be realized.

"Go, I'll go and see what the messengers are here for."

"Before the messenger of Beattado arrived, the prince of Babylon's messenger had already seen him and sent him to rest. Only the messenger of Assyria was still waiting outside the palace, and he was the younger brother of the present king of Assyria, and his name was Shalu. ”

This Xia Lu, who should be regarded as a prince, is a very thin and arrogant young man. He has a pair of soft black eyes, and when he looks at people, his eyes always flicker a little timidly. I think about his old brother Yar'an's reputation for brutality and murder - it is said that when he ascended the throne, he slaughtered a lot of his father's women and his own siblings, and this Xia Lu was let go because he was born to the same mother as him, and he was cowardly and timid, but he did not have any real power, and he was put aside, and his position was really embarrassing.

He hardly dared to look up at me, and his voice was short of breath, thinking that he had prepared his words in advance, memorized them several times, and now recited them in front of me like an endorsement.

"The messenger has come from afar, and he has worked hard, please rest well, although Memphis is not a particularly prosperous place, but if you have leisure, you can also relieve your worries and pastimes. On the day of the ceremony, please be sure to attend the ceremony. ”

He nodded, raised his face and said, "The princess is too polite......"

I smiled, but he froze, and the next word was silent.

Ali gently placed the glass of water in front of him and said in a voice that was enough to sober him, "Messenger, please drink some sherb." ”

He woke up like a dream, and said again and again: "Yes, thank you, thank you." ”

But the action of stretching out his hand was panicked, and the water cup was not picked up, but was knocked over.

Yali calmly called the palace maid to clean up, and Xia Lu was ashamed of herself, and her face was flushed, and she didn't dare to look up at me again.

"Hey, the princess's beauty, what a fascination he gets......"

I shook my head.

"Ally, you can't just look at the surface...... Tell a man to pay close attention to his behavior, and to be on his guard. ”

"Huh?" Yali wondered, "Could he ......?"

"To be able to escape at the hands of someone like Yar'an, it may be a wreck, or it may be a ......"

Ally, startled, straightened up and said, "Yes, I will definitely order someone to guard him tightly." ”

"Sometimes, after a long time of disguise, people often have the illusion that they can't tell the difference between disguise and reality. If his incompetence is faked, it will undoubtedly be dressed every day under the nose of Aran, but I always feel that there is something wrong with him......"

Those black eyes......

When he stared at me, he seemed to be an idiot obsessed with beauty, but under those eyes, there seemed to be a trace of clarity that I didn't have time to discern carefully.

Seeing that Yali was so nervous, I said, "You don't have to be nervous, his pretense is not necessarily to calculate us, but he has pretended to be a habit, and he can't peel off this layer of skin." ”

I was very firm when I spoke, but I felt a little strange when Arrie went down.

How can I be so sure that I can see so much in those eyes?

I...... Why do you know so much about his situation and mentality?

From those seemingly unfocused eyes, they suddenly penetrated into his heart.

What a familiar feeling...... Like, as if I had ......

I've ever experienced those days, those days of disguising myself all the time......

But when I think about it, I don't feel anything.

Until now, I can only remember my name, but my sense of identity is weak.

On the contrary, it was the name of Isis, which was slowly imprinted on her body.

By the way, there is also a messenger.

The messenger of Minoa is said to have been a clergyman.

After giving the order to come in and return to the court, the messenger of Minoa told our people that he still felt more comfortable in the temple, so he would not come to the palace. In the past few days, I have been in the temple to have a good exchange with our priests, and on the day of the enthronement ceremony, I will naturally come to pray for the new king.

We don't have a stake in Minoa, their naval division is great, but there is no friction with Egypt, and the stakes are much shallow. Presumably, sending a priest here also has this kind of peaceful coexistence in it.

Finally, there is a comparative, worry-free thing.

The messenger of Bittado has not yet come, so who could it be?

We are across the sea from Bittado, and we are not on the same page, and we have not had any contact with each other before.

So this time the envoy they sent may be an important person, deciding whether the two countries will be friends or foes after that.

I met the Assassin again at dinner, and now it is so common to meet the Assassin, and I feel that this day is not complete until I meet one or two of them. The assassin's timing was wrong, and he came out of the corner when the courtyard was full of guards, which shows that as an assassin, choosing a good time is very important.

Ally stood in front of me and covered me tightly, and I reached out and gently pushed her away, watching as the scimitars and spears of the guards had knocked the assassin's weapon off and cornered the wall, and Kim was thrilled to winch in my hand.

I suddenly felt a little itchy and depressed all day, and it happened that I had a fun time to deliver it to my door.

"Get out of the way," I said, turning my head, "give me the sword." ”

Ary's lips moved, but she didn't object to me, and let the maid bring my sword.

I took the iron sword, which I had tried to fight once, and walked slowly down the steps, saying to the desperate assassin who was cornered, "Come, come, fight me." If you win, I'll let you go. ”

He looked at me with a blank look.

I waved my hand to let the guards disperse: "Let him come." ”

The guards slowly dispersed and formed a circle around them, and the assassin seemed to find a sense of realism, slowly picked up the short knife that had fallen to the ground, and sprang down towards me.

I slashed him back, and he moved very nimblely, and his hand bounced back again and again on the ground.

I repelled him nine times, and he finally realized that he couldn't kill me without them.

I also felt that my sulking was almost out: "Okay, spare him a life, throw it out." ”

The guards agreed, and the two men rushed up and knocked the assassin down, punching him with both fists and kicks, and then dragging him down like a dead dog.

After a lot of exercise, I felt extra fragrant when I slept.

I suddenly woke up in the darkness of the night, alarmed, and reached for the dagger next to my pillow, but as soon as my hand moved, it was firmly pressed to the side of my neck.

"I haven't seen you in a while, and you're as clever as a snake now."

I was stunned.

The voice......

The poisonous needle hidden in the ring that I wanted to stab out was also in the air.

The man reached out and flicked it lightly, and the candlestick at the bedside lit up.

A little bit of dim light lit up faintly, like a star falling into the pool, so calmly and gently, reflecting his face.

The man was thinner than I remembered, but his eyes were brighter than before, like two bright stars.

He reached out and gently brushed my hair loose on the pillow, "You've grown up, Elsie." ”

I narrowed, "But you're old, Immorton." ”
