Before AD [Babylonian Favorites]

My whole body's attention was instantly focused on the wrist held by Alexander.Even if I have ever had a lover, this experience is really the first time for me to be led away by a man in public, especially this man is still an emperor, and he is also a very famous emperor in history.

The eyeballs of the female relatives wished they could stare down, and the old lady was trembling with anger.

"Barbarian!" she shouted, "Are you insulting me on purpose! I don't want to see this eunuch!"

Alexander let go of my hand, sat down, and asked me in a low voice, "What is she talking about?"

... Translator is really a difficult and great task.

"She's saying hello to me," I replied.

"Why does she look so angry?"

"...She was so excited to see me."

Alexander nodded thoughtfully, looked around, and said suddenly, "Come here, bring the gift I prepared."

I heard Ptolemy moaning in despair behind me.

"Ah, is he really going to take that out? Antigono, stop him, stop him, oh no...I don't want to be ashamed..."

Another voice calmly said: "You give up, the decision made by Alexander will not bring back ten cows."

While talking, several waiters brought up a bag the size of a dining table and placed it on the carpet in the center of the hall.

Alexander clapped his hands.

The waiter untied the bag, revealing a bunch of white... wool?

Alexander turned to me and said cheerfully, "Bagoss, hurry up and tell Madam, I want to watch her knit."

"Oh, Your Majesty said he wants to see you knitting...what!" I suddenly turned to look at Alexander, almost choking on my own saliva, "Knitting a sweater?"

Ptolemy's groans became exasperated.

I feel like something is wrong with my head.

Alexander Road: "Well, knitting."

The old lady's eyes widened: "Eunuch, what did this barbarian say? What does he want me to knit?"

It's over, I can't hide it anymore.

I closed my eyes and turned my heart: "Your Majesty said he wants to see you knitting a sweater."

The old lady's mouth was opened into an O shape, she couldn't catch her breath, and almost rolled her eyes.

"Medical officer! Call the medical officer!" A woman screamed.

Alexander stood up and held me back with an inexplicable expression: "Bagos, what's wrong with the old lady?"

The female relatives hastily summoned the medical officer, and a group of people escorted the old lady back to the dormitory.

"She was stunned by you." Ptolemy's voice sounded like he was dying from behind.

"I just asked her to knit a sweater, why should I be angry?" Alexander was puzzled.

I am helpless.The old lady is used to being pampered by nature, so doing this is obviously humiliating her, so it's no wonder she isn't angry.

"My grandma loves knitting sweaters the most. When I was a child, I often watched her knitting sweaters for me, and then told me very interesting stories." Alexander Road.

The chestnut-haired man looked at him for a long time with the eyes of rare animals, and said, "You are too innocent."

Ptolemy covered his face and sighed: "It's been a day or two since I was ashamed."

Alexander turned to look at Hephaestion: "Are you saying what I did is right?"

"You're right, Alexander." Hephaestion's blue eyes were so gentle that water could be squeezed out, "But you have to take your time, otherwise the old man will easily be overwhelmed."

Alexander thought for a while, nodded, and did not forget to turn his head to Ptolemy and say, "Look, Hephas is supporting me."

Ptolemy twitched the corner of his mouth: "If you want to knock down the pyramid someday on a whim, Hephaestion will be there to cheer you on. Do you think we don't know?"

When Alexander came out, the night was already deep, and the moon was in the middle of the sky.The wind howled in the courtyard.

There was a layer of chill on my body, and I couldn't help rubbing my arms.Even a midsummer night is not so pleasant without clothes on.Why did you forget to bring it?

I was annoyed in my heart, and accidentally bumped my head into the back of Alexander who stopped suddenly in front of me.

"Well, Your Majesty, Your Majesty." I quickly stepped back.

"Bagoss? I thought you had already gone back." Alexander looked at me and said in surprise, "It's late, go to bed."

I said: "Your Majesty, I actually want to discuss something with you."

"what's up?"

"Your Majesty, I want to go home."

Alexander was startled, and then said, "Isn't there no one in your house?"

Ah, forgot to make up the reason.

"My family... I..." Before I could finish my sentences, my nose itch and I couldn't help sneezing.

A cloak suddenly fell down and covered me.

The faint incense on it is somewhat familiar.

I looked down at the cloak, then looked up at the person in front of me, feeling a little dazed for a while: "Your Majesty..."

"Shh." He put his index finger to his lips, smiled at me, and held out his hand.

With his slender fingers, he tied the slipknot at the neckline, and he pulled the cloak to wrap me tightly.

The moonlight is no longer so cold and biting.

Alexander's deep eyes were full of stars.

"It's too cold outside, let's talk when we go back."

To be precise, the place where Alexander lived should not be Darius' bedroom, because it was too small and inconspicuous.

The inside is spacious and gorgeous, but it doesn't have the sharp and domineering beauty of the main hall.Such exquisite and graceful small palaces are everywhere, whether it is the embroidered tapestry hanging on the wall or the white wool blanket on the bed, they are all beautiful and subtle.

He leaned on the cashmere cushions, looking relaxed.

"Bagoss, leave here, where do you want to go?"

I said, "Go home."

"Don't lie to me, Bagoss, I know your family is ruined." He glanced at me lightly and said, "Where can you go if you leave here?"

Just such a light glance, I was a little flustered.

That's right, where to go after leaving here is what I am most confused about.

How does he know all about my thoughts?

I became more and more nervous, and said indiscriminately, "I...I can go anywhere, as long as it's not here."

He looked at me again: "You hate me?"

I felt anxious and said, "Yes, ah, no, no, Your Majesty. I just... don't like this place, yes, I don't like it here."

"Well, I don't like it here." He fell into deep thought and didn't speak for a long time.

The fire in the fireplace was burning vigorously, I looked down at my feet, but didn't dare to make a sound.

Why, why do I have the illusion that Alexander doesn't seem to want me to go so much?

He has no shortage of servants, servants or even male favourites, why is he keeping me?

I'm absolutely out of my mind.

After a long time, he sighed softly.

"You don't like this place, so let's leave, shall we? Go to the farther east, to Central Asia, to Bactria, to India, to the east that is farther than India—I've longed for that place since I was a child, it must be beautiful."

Of course it is beautiful there.

There are the most beautiful mountains and rivers, and the most vast sunset in the sky. That is my hometown, the great Alexander.

I suddenly feel sad.

But, can you take me back to my hometown?

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry." I bowed my head.

There were light footsteps behind him.

"Why are you still awake so late?" Hephaistion's voice sounded.

I quickly turned around and said, "Lord Hephaestion."

Hephaestion waved me absently and walked over to Alexander.

in his hands

I am stunned.

"I don't want to sleep, I can't sleep." Alexander said in a muffled voice, "Talk with me, Hephace."

"In a bad mood?" Hephaistion said, looking at me quite casually, and smiling.

I know it's time for me to leave, but...

"Lord Hephaestion!"

I called him to stop.

Hephaestion lay lazily on the other side of the sofa, propped his chin with one hand, and smiled half-smile: "What's the matter?"

I knew I was a little out of control with excitement: "My lord, can I see your hand, left hand."

He frowned slightly and looked at Alexander without moving.

"Bagos, what do you want to see?" Alexander asked curiously.

On that hand...

"My lord, I beg you, just raise your hand!" My voice began to tremble.

Alexander Road: "Hephas, just do it."

Hephaistion slowly raised his left hand.

"Is there a problem?"

I was dizzy for a while.

On his ring finger is a very shiny ring, gold ring, ruby.

It's that ruby ​​ring again!

I stared greedily at the ring, and a thought of the utmost audacity flashed through my mind.

If I go up and snatch that ring now, and then break it, will all of this end like a dream?
