"Sister is okay!" The little prince Memphis flew over to help me. I stroked my toes with one hand - luckily, my nails weren't broken. I stood up in pain, wondering, "Why are you here?" ”

"I heard that my sister wants to learn swords, so I ...... it."

Curious little kids.

The men also came to him, and Pharaoh asked, "Are you not hurt?" Let the medical officer take a look! ”

The little prince didn't panic: "No need to call the medical officer, High Priest Immortun, you can help my sister take a look." ”

I'm a little scared, if it wasn't for the hilt of the sword, but the blade of the sword, then half of my foot would not be saved.

When I was dancing the sword just now, I seemed to be a little distracted, so as soon as I woke up from the sound, I took off the sword in my hand.

Immorton knelt down in front of me, picked up my foot, and pressed his fingers lightly on the place where they had been smashed. I frowned and didn't say anything, but little Memphis couldn't stand it: "Lighter." ”

In fact, I think his fingers are quite gentle, and besides, how can he kneel in front of me like this, so why do I think of it all of a sudden...... It's like a marriage proposal...... Ah, that's a ridiculous idea, how old am I, I'm just a little yellow hairy girl in his eyes.

"It doesn't matter, it didn't hurt the bones. The princess came back and applied some ointment to dissipate the blood. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and Pharaoh waved his hand: "It's okay if you don't hurt it, Isis, it's good for you to learn the sword, but be careful not to hurt yourself." ”

"Yes, I'll be careful." I promised.

The little prince said, "Father, my sister is so smart, isn't it, she learns swordsmanship so quickly." ”

I'm a little nervous, don't anyone think it's wrong, right?

Unexpectedly, Pharaoh took it for granted and said, "Of course, we have the best bloodline, and we are God's messengers on earth." When Isis was born, the previous high priest said that she could talk to God, so why is it strange? ”

Oh, this Isis is quite qualified.

Talking to God? Hey, the Egyptian pharaohs love to play this gimmick, just like our ancient emperors always proclaimed themselves the Son of Heaven, and from time to time they also engaged in activities such as sealing Zen and worshiping the heavens, in short, in order to strengthen their rule and paint their class status with a layer of reasonable legitimacy.

Maids came on either side and lifted me up and lifted me over the upholstered chairs for me to sit on. Little Memphis tossed a group of maids and waiters jumped up and down, shouting "bring water" and "go get medicine", and those maids turned like headless flies.

"Okay, I'm fine." I, the wounded, had to comfort him. No way, who made me someone else's sister and not a sister? There is a way that the eldest sister is like a mother, so you can't ignore him.

"It's all swollen."

"I didn't hurt my bones, and it will be fine in two days."

Pharaoh and Immorton were talking there, and even in the face of the supreme ruler of Egypt, he was straight-backed, neither humble nor arrogant, without flattery or crampedness, and the smile on his lips was both polite and indifferent, and seemed very measured.

"How can my sister learn swords from him?" Little Memphis bites my ear with me.

I said, "I saw a lot of weapons in his living room, and I think he must be quite proficient." ”

Little Memphis touched his chin: "My swordsmanship was learned from General Chakut...... I don't know which of them has higher swordsmanship? ”

I don't know, but I don't think that general must be as graceful or graceful as Immorton. Even when he swings his sword, it makes people think that he is ......

"Sister, did you also learn your flute from him?"

"No, it's not." I shook my head, "What did you do today?" Did you go out of the palace again? ”

"No," he said, "as soon as I went out, I saw them escorting the convicts to slavery in the quarries, and there was a little child, younger than me, and I left him as a companion." ”

"Oh," I said, "how can your companion be the child of a slave?" What do the people who follow you say? "I don't mean to care about him, I'm just curious.

Memphis pouted: "They said no, even Tasha said no, but I'm a prince!" I said yes is yes! ”

Who is Tasha?

But my question was answered immediately. Another middle-aged woman who came with Yali to get the medicine, she looked more gentle and moving, a little older than Yali, Memphis asked her to rub my feet with medicine, and it seemed that Tasha was next to him and was equivalent to Yali next to me.

and Sinuye, who came with them, his status should be equivalent to that of a companion or something, and he seems to be a child of a noble or high-ranking official family, older and more stable than Memphis, and his skills should be good, and he is very polite. I don't know if this companion was chosen by Memphis himself or by the Pharaoh, but it was a good candidate.

When Tasha came to rub my feet, he also knelt beside him and asked in a low voice, "Is the princess hurt badly?" ”

Tasha didn't bother to look up, took off my shoes, and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll be fine after two days of rest." ”

Pharaoh came and said to Sinuye, who apparently recognized him, and said, "Isn't this Sinuyeh?" You follow Memphis, and you have to persuade him to do some nonsense. ”

Sinuye replied respectfully, "Yes." ”

Pharaoh turned his head again: "Esis, I think of Sinuye, and I will find you two female companions, too?" Although Yali is careful, she alone is not enough. You see there are a few of them, so I'll pick a few for you in two days. ”

I agreed. Immorton followed him, his gaze in his eyes...... It's a concern, right?

I smiled and nodded at him, it wasn't his fault that I was hurt, but it was true that I was causing him trouble.

My wrist hurt a little, and Memphis grabbed my hand tightly, staring at Immorton with unkind eyes, as if he were guarding against something.

This child, my sister is not your property, as for looking at it so tightly?

Maybe it's because there is no mother, so my sister's status in my heart is more important?

"Alright, let's have dinner together at noon, there is very fresh game today." Pharaoh said, "It's been a long time since we've eaten together, Memphis, come here." Then he turned to him and said, "Come with you, Immorton." ”

"Your kindness is appreciated, but I still have something to do, so I won't go today." He politely declined.

Pharaoh was not reluctant: "Then I will come and talk to you the next day." ”

We left the temple in a mighty way, and little Memphis didn't sit with his father and ran to squeeze me. first asked me if I liked to learn swords, and then asked me what classes I took in the temple, and then said that the children of criminals and slaves I met today did not see that this child was still so talented in rapping, and it was really unseemly.

Pharaoh is actually not very old, his actual age is probably in his thirties and less than forty years old, but ...... Maybe it's always hard work, or maybe he's been in battle too, right? He looked very steady, but he was a standard good father who cared for his children, and Memphis had already put on a sword with a golden sheath, no worse than the one I had come from his pit. As for Isis, I think her status can also be seen from her boxes of jewelry, her luxurious clothes, the rich food she eats, the crowds of maids and palace slaves, and her freedom to do things, and the woman with the highest status in this palace is definitely not her, well, it can be said that it is none other than me now.

It's true that there is good game, but I haven't gotten used to the weirdness of the seasoning for a while. And the barley staple food here is a bit rough, so I think I'm probably used to eating rice, right?

There is no rice in Egypt, right? I don't know much about the crops here, but if I had rice and rice, I would be happy.

"Father," I said, "I have been very interested in flowers and plants lately, and some of them are not in the palace, so can I have them look elsewhere?" ”

Pharaoh was very cheerful: "Just tell them to look for it, and the bounty can be more." ”

I smiled, the princess's life is quite happy. It's not too much of a disadvantage to have no mother, as long as there is no stepmother.

Memphis asked me, "What is my sister looking for?" I can help you too. ”

I said, "Okay, I'll draw the pattern later, and you can keep an eye on it for me, but I think maybe we don't have it here, but the merchants who cross the sea should be more well-informed." ”
