Chapter 394: A Woman's Scheming
"Hello, Pharaoh Cleopatra, we are ......"
I thought about it, but still acted according to etiquette.
Although we were walking with Iskander, it was clear that he was the only one who was respected.
Before you figure out the situation, try not to be offended to the old tricks.
"Stop, Player! In our capacity, where is the turn to salute her! However, Nero stopped me without warning, "It's just a queen of a wild land, and the shelves are quite large!" ”
Nero ...... Please don't ......"
I was shocked, and I just wanted to say something.
"Oh? Sure enough, it's a distinguished guest, and this courage is impressive......"
Cleopatra was not angry, but cast a smiling look on Nero's face.
It's just that she deliberately bit the word "distinguished guest" a little heavier.
"Your Majesty, the car is coming!"
Just when the scene was a little embarrassing, he saw two Egyptian guards arrive in two luxurious carriages and said respectfully to Cleopatra.
"Well, I'm sorry for you." Cleopatra nodded with a smile on her face, then looked at Iskandar, "Your Excellency Alexander, please get in the car now." I will arrange for them to sit in the back carriage and follow them. ”
As he spoke, Cleopatra even stepped forward and took the initiative to open the door for Iskander, appearing very polite.
It is worth mentioning that this carriage obviously looks a lot more luxurious than the one in the back.
“…… What do you mean by this, that you should separate me from my companions? Iskandar, however, had a dull face and stood still in place, "You regard them as my retinues, not as partners of equal status!" ”
"Your Excellency Alexander...... It's just an innocuous formality and doesn't affect the actual ......," Cleopatra tried to explain to Iskander.
"Enough! Either let me and the two of them ride in a carriage today, or I won't enter your palace at all!" It's up to you to do it yourself! ”
Iskandar snorted coldly, holding his arms and not giving an inch.
“…… Haha, I just made an unintentional mistake, Your Excellency Alexander, you are so serious, but are you bullying me as a weak woman? ”
Cleopatra was stunned for a moment, but soon smiled calmly again.
"Go, bring back the carriage in the back. Not needed here for the time being. All we needed was a carriage to welcome our guests. ”
She then instructed one of her guards.
"Hmph, have you finally gotten your senses? That's pretty much it. Although the specifications of this car are completely inferior to my own car, I still understand the principle of following the local customs, so I will accept your kindness! ”
Iskandar nodded with a little satisfaction, and stepped forward to enter the carriage.
"Please wait a minute, Your Excellency Alexander." Cleopatra shook her head slightly, stretched out her hand to stop and smiled, "Since you have the title of Pharaoh, then you are your own family. Come on, I invite you to get into my own car! We are all rulers of Egypt and true masters. ”
Cleopatra's eyes swept to that side, and the two guards suddenly opened the curtain of the carriage that belonged to hers.
"As for your two companions, they are the most distinguished guests! I will welcome them with the most solemn ceremony in all of Egypt, what do you think, Your Excellency Alexander? ”
"This ......"
Iskandar frowned and couldn't help but look at me.
"It's okay with us, Iskander, you can take her car as Cleopatra said."
I quickly shook my head.
"Whew...... Well, it's rude to refuse again and again, so I'll accept your offer, Cleopatra. Iskandar hesitated for a moment, then nodded slowly, "But remember, don't neglect my companions!" Otherwise, I will definitely want you to look good! ”
"How dare I, everything is at your disposal, Your Excellency Iskandar......"
Cleopatra lowered her eyebrows and smiled, looking very elegant.
So Iskandar got into Cleopatra's chariot, and Nero and I got into the carriage behind us and marched together towards the palace.
——
When I got into the carriage, I realized that the wide carriage was not empty, and that two young and beautiful maids were sitting inside.
"Distinguished guest, welcome to Egypt, and on behalf of Queen Cleopatra, we pay you the highest respect." When the two maids saw me come in, they immediately showed an extremely charming standard smile, "Please allow us to serve you along the way......"
"Excuse me, just let the performer take care of it, you guys go down!"
However, before they could finish their words, they were interrupted by Nero, who came up later.
"However, Your Majesty has an order......
The two maids were about to struggle, but after seeing Nero's face clearly, they were suddenly choked in their throats.
In all fairness, the two of them are extremely rare among women.
At least among ordinary people, it is one in a thousand or even one in a thousand, and Cleopatra probably struggled to find them.
After all, it was supposed to be arranged to serve Iskander, and the beautiful specifications must be very high.
But in the face of Nero's unparalleled beauty, they could only be ashamed of themselves.
Without further ado, Nero jumped out of the carriage very consciously, apparently planning to find a way back for themselves......
"Humph......"
Nero snorted twice in satisfaction and leaned forward and grabbed my arm.
"Why are you so fierce to them...... Are you still worried about me? ”
I felt a little crying and laughing.
"No matter what, anyway, there isn't much time to be alone with the performer, and no one can encroach on it!"
Nero looked stubborn, unwavering, and even had a smug expression on his face.
"You...... It's really child-like......"
I was no stranger to Nero's willfulness, so I could only shake my head helplessly.
"Hee-hee, the performer likes this kind of Yu anyway, doesn't he?" Nero smiled innocently twice, fragrant like a rose.
"But more than that, you must be careful of Cleopatra." It's just that soon, Nero's expression became serious, "That woman is really not simple, she is a good trick!" ”
"What does that say? I think she's quite polite and enthusiastic. "I couldn't help but wonder.
"Alas...... Therefore, you men can't see through some women's thoughts at all, and you don't even know when you are played with in the palm of your hand. Nero sighed, and then spoke to me slowly, "Didn't the musicians discover that Cleopatra had been trying to divide us from Iskandar from the very beginning?" ”
