Sinuye sent me back to the palace and took my leave. I wanted to say something to him, but after thinking about it, I didn't say anything.

Actually, there are a number of things, needless to say.

It was impossible for me to be with him.

I sat down quietly, and Memphis chose a good family affair for Sinouye, of course, but ......

Why did Memphis do this?

I just want to believe that he is really thinking about Sinuyah.

We all went through so many difficult times together, and we were each other's only support.

But now, he is already a king.

I stood up and looked out the window, night had fallen, and the stars were gradually shining in the sky.

Memphis, if I marry you, then we are still one power. If I am united with Sinuye, then you will not be able to control the power of Upper Egypt.

Do you think so?

In my eyes, you have always been the simple, bent on protecting my brother.

But......

The world changes like this sky, and in the blink of an eye, it is plunged into darkness.

It's too fast for you to ...... Embrace this change.

Maybe my existence has become an obstacle for Xiao Man.

Our father, the previous Pharaoh, had an older brother and a younger brother before he succeeded him, both of whom died. After he succeeded him, his sister also died of illness.

Maybe it's all a coincidence, the father is so kind to us, can such a person kill a brother and sister?

Yes......

For if he hadn't done it first, Pharaoh wouldn't have been him. He will be like those who are buried in the Valley of the Kings, but do not have a tomb of their own.

There are countless mummies in the Valley of the Kings, which are the white bones of the royal power.

Do Xiao Man and I still have to go down this road?

…… Maybe I'm thinking too much.

I walked forward step by step.

I hate to think so, but how can there be true peace in this court?

If it is really like the Nile Daughters, the union of Carol and Memphis...... Maybe it's not as bad as I thought.

Carol was not in the slightest threat to Memphis's position, and she was never a successful political figure herself. After so many conspiracies and assassinations, with her, she will probably be truly relaxed and taste the sweetness of true love, right?

I don't want to take the place of Memphis...... After so much going through, I just want peace.

Even if I don't think so, maybe others will look at me.

Even if Memphis doesn't want to be against me, the people around him will want more and more centralized power, which is an inevitable conflict.

My existence has been ...... for him It's not a help, it's an obstacle, right?

The king didn't share anything, and I never wanted to marry him.

"What?"

He jumped up: "Sister, why are you leaving?" ”

I smiled and said, "It's time for me to go back to Upper Egypt, where things were very urgent last time, and I didn't have a clue." It's over here, and I don't need to stay here. ”

"But ......"

"Memphis, you are the Pharaoh, and you should be able to stand alone. And I was very tired, going back to Egypt and living a comfortable life is the life I want. It's too dry and hot here, and I like Thebes, at least the rainy season in Thebes is more pronounced and long-lasting. ”

"Sister," he grimaced, "you don't have to say it, I won't agree." ”

"Memphis, you're not a kid anymore." I said, "You don't need me to take care of you anymore, let me live the life I want to live." By the way, how is Kyrol? You don't really want to hurt her. ”

"I'll take care of her!" Memphis said angrily.

"You," I smiled as I took the map that Carol had drawn, I didn't want anyone else to think that girl had any unusual skills, but now my mind changed, "Let's take a look at this." ”

Memphis's eye was definitely not bad, and he could tell at a glance the value of this map.

"This is what Carol painted." I said, "This girl knows a lot more than you think." I have no objection to letting her learn some rules, but it's a bit wrong for you to put her in the quarry. Pick her up tomorrow, she's a very simple girl, I think you treat her well, and she won't go against your will. ”

Although he was silent, I could tell that his mind had changed.

"Let's go tomorrow." I smiled and gently straightened his knotted hair ornament: "You are the king of Upper and Lower Egypt, don't be reckless in the future." When you are to get married, I will give you back that half of the authority as well. At that point, I really don't have to worry about it anymore......"

"Sister!" Memphis suddenly grabbed my hand hard: "Let's get married!" I just want to be with my sister! ”

I was stunned for a moment: "What are you talking about, I ......"

"This throne, everything my father left behind, I want to share it with my sister and protect it together!" His voice was urgent: "Don't leave me!" ”

"Memphis, you forgot what I told you? If the blood is too close together, you will not get healthy offspring. I will always love you, my sister, my relatives, you have to remember that. Even if we don't unite, it will never change. ”

"Why? Sister, do you have someone else in your heart? For a while, Memphis became the unreasonable child again: "Sister, didn't you say that you only love me and will marry me in the future?" Why do you want to change the hexagram? Isn't it, do you still like that person? ”

"Who?" I was amazed.

"Immorton!" Memphis said, "He left his post without permission and sneaked back as a Minoa priest, thinking I didn't know!" I just don't want to clean him up for a while! But he must have tempted you again, didn't he? I shouldn't have ......" He suddenly turned his head: "Guard! Guardsman! Someone! ”

I hurriedly grabbed him: "Xiao Man! What are you doing! ”

"I'm going to kill him!" Memphis's eyes were red: "I killed him!" ”

"Nonsense!" I said, "This has nothing to do with him?" ”

"Doesn't matter?" He approached me: "Hell, it's okay! Sister, how could you not figure it out! Who is he? Why did he approach you? He covets more than just your beauty! You are the queen of Upper Egypt, his plans are far-reaching, if you don't kill him now, there will be endless troubles! ”

"You don't have to!" I slammed his hand away: "I can tell you that I will not marry in this life!" ”

"What?"

"I'm not married!" I said word for word, "You don't have to worry about someone threatening your throne. Even if I fall in love with someone one day, I will not marry him, so that no one can threaten you as the king of Egypt. You can rest assured! I won't marry Sinuye, I won't marry any military general with a heavy army, and I won't marry a capable high-ranking official or a famous minister, are you relieved? I will never compete with you for the throne, don't force me again! ”

"Sister, you're ......" Memphis was stunned, the look on his face I had seen before......

When Pharaoh decided to marry Tayili, Memphis went to fetch me back, and that look of loss, resentment, and grievance, the look of distress I had once greater, appeared on his face again.

This time, it's because of me.

"Sister, in your eyes...... Everything between us...... Is it just for kingship? ”

My throat felt like I was choking.

Am I wrong?

Wasn't Memphis's marriage for Sinuye a sign that he was going to do something to secure the throne by eliminating dissent? Isn't he what I guessed......

My chest was buried in remorse and apology, and I stretched out my hand: "Mephis......"

He turned and strode out, shouting, "Someone! Come! ”

I hurriedly took two steps after him: "Memphis! You stop! ”

Memphis looked back outside the door, and the moonlight reflected a cold, murderous silver light on his body.

He said in a deep voice: "Sister, Immorton, I have to kill!" If you want to stop me, kill me!" ”
