I pulled my hand back, but he held on.
"Sister, I'm not a child anymore. I know what I'm doing, and I know what kind of choices I should make in my position. In fact...... I think the person who hasn't grown up is you. ”
I looked up at him, and Memphis softened his voice and said, "Sister, although you are three or four years older than me, I feel that there are times when you don't seem to be older than me. We are a royal family, ruling Egypt. What to do and what not to do, in fact, sister, you also understand, but you are still very stupid sometimes. You've liked Immorton before, and this time you're risking your way to Minoa for him...... You know, a few days ago Minoa came back with the news that the Egyptian envoys and their retinue and their guards had all been murdered by Mikenny's spies, and you know, you know what my heart was like when I heard the news? I feel like I'm going to die...... I felt so painful, it hurt so much that I couldn't stand it, I couldn't speak, I couldn't breathe. I want to kill! I want to scream like crazy, I want to destroy everything I can see! Sister, do you think I'm still the same as before, like a child who wants to marry you? No, it's not...... For the days I thought you were dead, I felt like I was living in purgatory! My heart seemed to be burning in a fire, and it was as if someone was holding a knife and cutting and tormenting me, I couldn't close my eyes, and at night I was irritable and afraid, I didn't know how to free myself, I didn't know what I could do to make myself less miserable! I...... I ......"
He gasped for air, and I finally pulled my hand back, but ......
I noticed that Memphis was different from what he used to be, and I noticed his growth. But I didn't think that he had changed because of what he had changed from before, his growth was so bloody, and he was forced to face the cruel reality. Such a sudden change, an unprecedented heavy blow, and the pain of losing his loved ones forced him to grow.
My hand, in turn, gently wrapped around his palm and whispered, "Memphis ......"
But I, who always thought I was smart, didn't know what to say to him now.
Can I apologize lightly as if nothing had happened?
What words can I use to comfort him in making up for all the terrible injuries he has experienced?
"Sister, do you know when I made up my mind to marry you and let you stay with me forever? It is...... When I saw you again in the port, the moment I hugged you, I decided that I could no longer let you do whatever you wanted, and go wherever you wanted. Yes, we are sisters and brothers, and you have always used this reason to refuse to marry me. Well, I will not only be your brother, but also your husband, and you will not be able to leave me again, Issy. ”
I looked at him in amazement.
This is his ...... The first time he called my name, but it didn't seem to be awkward, as if he should have said it, and it was a matter of course.
"Isis, on the next Sun God Day, we will get married."
After he said this, he paused and said in an unquestioning tone, "Well, let's not discuss this matter anymore." Because I want to marry you, this is a fact that has been decided, and now everyone knows it, and Imkhodb and they are also very happy, which is also a good thing for the stability of the royal power, and Idhombu knows that the two of us are the most suitable. You have wisdom and talent, and I have courage and strength. We have the noblest bloodline, and together we will grow stronger and stronger. ”
He said this sentence categorically, and then said:
"I've come to discuss something else with you, about that Babylonian king Lagsio."
"This man has ill intentions, and he should be on guard."
"Yes, I know that too." Memphis said, "He must have come here with a plan." Although he keeps saying that he is here to propose, but he has not even met you, so what is he for? The beauty of someone you've never met? Joke. ”
I whispered, "Of course he's not doing it for." He is trying to make me the "power" of the queen of Egypt, but he is just trying to plot against our Egypt, and the marriage proposal is just a pretense. ”
"Yes, sister, you're right. I've got people to keep an eye on him. However, when he said goodbye just now, he said that he would stay and wait until the ceremony was over. I'm afraid he's a thief, or he's got his mind somewhere else. ”
He looked calm and organized. He was still used to calling me sister just now, but ...... It doesn't seem to matter what to call it now.
I knew in my heart that he wasn't a kid anymore, and that's true.
He's not a kid anymore, and I'm not anymore.
We've all grown up.
When he mentioned the veins on the other side of the Copper Mountain, I suddenly asked, "What about Carol?" Did she go back? ”
Memphis paused for a moment and said, "She's gone." ”
I nodded, and mumbled.
"Well, nothing else is particularly important, and it's not too late to talk about it tomorrow." Memphis said, "You must be tired, rest early." Tomorrow will you come to the main temple to discuss politics, or will you go to the temple to pray for blessings? ”
I looked down at my fingers, "I'm going to finish it...... Immorton's afterlife. ”
He sighed, "Then I'm leaving." ”
He stood up, and I got up to see him off.
Mephiz walked to the stairs of the entrance to the temple, suddenly turned around, hugged me, and kissed my hot lips my face, forehead, and lips.
I was stunned for a moment, and was about to push him away, but Memphis had already let go of his hand, and just stood there looking at me, and without saying any more, turned away.
The slave girls kneeling at the bottom of the steps and the guards standing there, one by one, made a gesture that they saw nothing, that nothing had happened. I stood on the steps, blankly reaching out to hold the top of the statue on the side, only to feel that I had no strength at all, and the whole person was hollowed out.
