Pharaoh and her queen

The flickering firelight illuminated the palace path, and the thick, ink-like night quietly slipped into the most secret corner of the palace.

As soon as Prime Minister Gite and Priest Kanak left the palace gate, they saw General Xitu and General Hirsch waiting outside the palace.

Nodding their heads, they separated tacitly.

Seeing that Prime Minister Gite and General Xitu walked away, Hirsch nodded slightly to the High Priest Karnak, "Father."

There is no sense of intimacy between father and daughter after five years of separation, but it is full of a strong sense of alienation.

Five years ago, after Hirsch's mother, Ritia, the high priest, died suddenly of a serious illness, Hirsch left Thebes and never came back during the five years. Hirsch thought she would choose to stay in Zhong Hai for the rest of her life.

Facing Hirsch's indifferent and alienated attitude, Kanak's eyes flashed a dim light, his reaction was equally cold, and he walked slowly towards the mansion.

Hirsch handed over the reins to the guard behind him, waved his hand to signal the guard to step back, and followed up alone.

The sound of dull footsteps is especially clear in the empty night, spreading to the distance bit by bit through the gaps between the blue stone slabs under the feet.

"The Hittite mission will arrive in Thebes in five days, and Princess Manefti will also come. You will go to greet her personally, and I will propose to His Majesty that you be responsible for receiving the Hittite mission."

The hand hanging on one side suddenly exerted force, and the palms with fingertips poked painfully. Hershey's face was condensed, and he sarcastically said without hesitation, "Prince Karnak, you are still not giving up, you should know that betraying His Majesty will bear the burden." s consequence."

With a pause in his footsteps, Kanak sneered, "Betrayal? The Karnak family will always be loyal to the blood of the Sun God. God's will is for Prince Inanhot to sit on the throne of Egypt."

"God's bloodline? Great Priest Karnak, ten years is not enough time for you to see who is the most suitable for that position? Do you really think that a mediocre person with no ambition and no talent can sit firmly? Is that the location?"

The volume suddenly rose, and the fact that her father chose to betray His Majesty Edith had been gnawing at her all the time for five years, easily causing her to lose control.

Pa~ The crisp applause echoed in the empty street, Kanak's hypocritical face revealed a bit of ferocity and madness under the dim light, "Hersh, shut up, Prince Inanhot is not something you can talk about , you just need to know that only by pushing Prince Inanhot to that position, can the Kanak family regain the pinnacle of power in Thebes."

Bits of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth, and Hirsch's right face quickly swelled up with bright red fingerprints. He swallowed the blood foam in his mouth, without changing his face, and said in a colder tone than before, "In the end, you are only here to satisfy your selfish desires." , You don’t need to make these high-sounding excuses, do you really think you can beat His Majesty Its? It’s just that you drag the whole family to be buried with you.”

"Huh~" Kanak snorted lightly, "You don't need to think about this, you just need to complete my order, His Highness Manefetti specifically mentioned you in the letter, you know what to do on the fifth day, otherwise... you Know what the consequences are."

He glanced at Hershey in disgust, "Remember to apply the medicine, and don't let His Majesty Itis notice the abnormality tomorrow." After that, Kanak quickened his pace, leaving Hershey far behind. If it wasn't for some use, He wouldn't waste so many words with that disgusting thing.

Hirsch stood there without moving for a long time, her eye sockets were covered by the soreness that swept over her, and every part of her body was trembling slightly for the news she just heard. Manefetti specifically mentioned her, mentioned her.

With a low growl, Hirsch smashed his fist against the wall on one side, and dark red blood quickly seeped out from the gap. How long has it been? Only the sharp pain can temporarily shield the bone-biting torment in his heart.

But she knew very well that she couldn't, she couldn't make the same mistakes again and again.

The relationship between her and Manefetti, which started five years ago, was originally a mistake, never possible.

Hirsch moved her body slowly, turned around and walked in the opposite direction. Fortunately, she now has her own mansion, so she doesn't have to go back to that dirty and dirty place.

He staggered, and there was a strong sense of sadness radiating from his body, and he was no longer in high spirits like when he was at the border of Zhonghai.

***

Ye Zhiqing fell asleep until the moon hung on the treetops. He slept for so long that his head was still a little groggy when he woke up.

Having nothing to do, eating a little something to fill his stomach, and not knowing when Edith will come, after thinking about it, Ye Zhiqing took a few maids with him to go outside the hall for a few laps.

As soon as he walked out, Ye Zhiqing realized that there were only two palaces in this area, Ari Palace and Confucius Palace.

The Confucius Hall is the one I am visiting now, and the Ari Palace is on the side of the Confucius Hall. Ye Zhiqing pointed to the blurred outline in the darkness, "Lan Masu, is the Ari Palace over there?"

"Miss, yes, the Ari Palace is the palace of His Majesty Itis, and you live in the Kongsi Palace." Seeing Ye Zhiqing's interest, Lan Masu continued to explain, "Ari is the Egyptian sun god, Kongsi The god is the Egyptian moon god."

The palace named after the god of the sun and the god of the moon is not surprising according to the customs of Egypt. The ancient Egyptians had their own theory of creation. They believed that the world was originally chaos, with no beginning and no end, and the brilliance of the sun and the moon moistened it alternately. Everything in Egypt.

Ye Zhiqing lowered his eyes to study carefully, but didn't notice the teasing smile on Lan Masu's face. The sun and the moon, one Yin and one Yang, from another perspective, obviously represent a certain kind of intimacy.

Looking at the ancient inscriptions carved on both sides of the stone slab under his feet, Ye Zhiqing was a little dazed. The god Kongsi was the first moon god in ancient Egypt, and the time of the Battle of Kadesh obviously did not match. The dynasty's estimation was wrong, or there were some deviations in this different world.

The night was getting darker, and the chill in the evening wind made Ye Zhiqing shiver unconsciously. It was very late, but Edith still didn't make any movement.

Ye Zhiqing belatedly thought about the question of how to sleep at night, "Lan Masu, does His Majesty Edith sleep in Kongsi Palace at night? Or Ari Palace?"

The voice was clear and clear, and the question was very straightforward. Just as Lan Masu was about to answer, he caught a glimpse of a figure appearing behind him, bent down and followed Edith's gesture and led the other maids back quietly.

Ye Zhiqing didn't notice the slightest difference, and he didn't hear Lan Masu's answer when he walked to the lake, so he turned around in doubt, "Lan Masu?"

At the same time, a warm cloak fell on Ye Zhiqing's shoulders. When he raised his head, Itis's eyes with a slight smile fell into his eyes. The bottom of his eyes seemed to retain the warmth of the sun. All he needed was a look. , it seems to be wrapped in a harmonious warmth.

Itsis fastened the straps on the cloak slowly, and ran her cool fingertips across Ye Zhiqing's neck, "I'll stay where you want me to stay," said Itis.

The understated tone, gentle and focused eyes collided fiercely in the air, and made a buzzing sound, which exploded in Ye Zhiqing's mind, leaving nothing.

The gentleness of the Egyptian queen is indeed irresistible. The smile on Ye Zhiqing's lips is getting bigger and bigger, and the deep black eyes are filled with unfathomable sharpness, "Your Majesty Edith, do you still remember our deal? My bargaining chip It is to resolve the dispute between Egypt and the Hittites over mineral and port resources in Nusyria."

The light and shadow in the amber eyes flickered imperceptibly, and Edith closed the cloak, "Remember."

"Your Majesty, I want you to add a bargaining chip now, may I?"

Brows raised slightly, Etis's expression remained unchanged, "Okay," quietly staring at Ye Zhiqing, never seen Ye Zhiqing smile as freely as tonight, the warmth in his eyes gradually condensed into an undisguised enthusiasm , passing over the water lilies, passing over the stone steps, passing over the hanging hair tips, and passing over everything surrounding Ye Zhiqing.

The colorful light and shadow gradually become blurred, and strands of fiery breath linger around the thick night.

Ye Zhiqing walked slowly in the direction of Itsis, touched Ittis' collarbone with her slender fingertips, then slowly moved up, and finally stopped on her shoulders.

The whole upper body seemed to be tightly attached to Ittis' body, the red lips were slightly parted, as if nothing had brushed against Ittis' ears, and the warm breath sprayed thinly on the skin behind the ears, arousing a layer of fine pimples.

"Have you seen that white water lily, Your Majesty? I want it, and I want Your Majesty to pick it in person," the cold face was tinged with a slightly drunken charm, and the heart-wrenching posture was absolutely clear.

Its lowered her head, and the entangled eyes of light and shadow became deeper and deeper, converging into bright spots of light, wantonly scattering a burning temperature.

Etis clearly felt that the dark corner that had been silent for a long time seemed to be slowly pushed away, and bright light shone in. The heart under the left chest was still beating steadily, but it was hidden in the warm blood. The trembling in my heart has already been trembling in my limbs.

Ye Zhiqing was still in a charming and drunken posture, the two were very close to each other, their eyes were facing each other, Edith who was close could see her trembling eyelashes and the earnestness and persistence in her eyes.

The ridiculous and even absurd request was not a joke. The smile on Edith's face did not diminish, but his breathing slowed down.

Looking at the lake, the only pure white water lily is very eye-catching among the clusters of blue water lilies, not far from the lake but not close.

There was a moist touch on the shoulder suddenly, and Ye Zhiqing's slightly moist fingertips were circling back and forth on his shoulder, and Etis suddenly lowered his head and pressed his forehead to each other, with a low and hoarse voice wrapped in wisps of bewitching. To confuse people, "Since you know what you want, then I will pick it for you."

Edith took a small step back, supporting Ye Zhiqing Xuxu, and when she stood still, Edith walked towards the shore of the lake with steady steps.

Plop~, there was a clear sound of falling into the water, Ye Zhiqing for a moment withdrew all the seductive gestures, and then returned to a calm and self-sufficient appearance, walking towards the shore of the lake, his eyes followed closely all the time A figure swimming in the water.

The temperature difference between day and night in Egypt is huge. It is cold and cold to enter the water at this time. No matter how good the physique is, Itis will not feel good.

Unexpectedly, after a few strange shakings, Ye Zhiqing's calm expression suddenly changed, and he saw layers of ripples on the dark lake surface, but the swimming figure was nowhere to be seen.

"Your Majesty Its, Your Majesty Its..." After Ye Zhiqing calmed down, he immediately realized that this was a prank by Its.

But as time went by, Ye Zhiqing's expression turned slightly chilly. Thinking of the injury on Ittis' shoulder, she panicked like thorns growing wantonly in the dark, piercing Ye Zhiqing's delicate skin unexpectedly.

All the maids have left, and she is the only one.

Ye Zhiqing never hated her ignorance as much as now. She could only pray that Edith was joking with her. The established historical track always seemed to be a knife hanging in her heart. fall.

"Your Majesty Itis..." trembling slightly, the time was getting longer and longer, Ye Zhiqing's voice of calling became smaller and smaller, and he murmured in a daze, "If there is a god, I will never be with her, with Ithy. It's just too ridiculous for Si to make such a joke."

And just when Ye Zhiqing calmed down again and was about to go into the water, a familiar figure suddenly broke through the water and appeared in front of Ye Zhiqing unexpectedly.

Yingying drops of water slipped from her cheeks, her long wet hair hung behind her, and her thin long gown clung to her exquisite body curves, hiding in the deep lake water, holding a white water lily in her left hand.The water droplets on it seemed to be trembling, and they were even more glamorous than Ye Zhiqing.

"The water lily you want?" Ye Zhiqing was stunned, looking at him dully, a sly smile flashed in his eyes, and Edith passed the water lily in his hand forward again.

Suddenly came to his senses, Ye Zhiqing took the water lily, pulled Ittis up in a hurry, took off the cloak on his body, put it on Its, and hurried to Laytis to go back to the temple after doing everything.

She regretted a little, regretting why she made such a ridiculous and reckless temptation on a whim tonight.

He was suddenly grabbed by the person behind him, and fell backward into his wet and cold arms.

Since her limbs were cold, and she stayed in the water for a long time, her whole body was a little stiff, and she couldn't bear to let go of the person in her embrace who was exuding warmth, "Don't move, let me hug you for a while."

Ye Zhiqing stopped struggling, and the breath that touched his skin seemed to be cold.

The violent tremor of the heart caused a dull pain in the ribs under the left chest. Ye Zhiqing closed his eyes, trying to calm down his slightly chaotic breathing.

Warmth continued to flow through the skin that was close to her, and Etis moved her slightly warmed body, turning Ye Zhiqing to face herself.

Ittis's relaxed smile suddenly lingered on his face, Ye Zhiqing's light black eyes were filled with deep worry, his calm and self-possessed elegant demeanor disappeared, even if he regained his calm expression now, he can still I can feel her panic in the clues.

In Edith's view, this was just a prank on the spur of the moment, and it was regarded as revenge for Ye Zhiqing's rude request, but she did not expect Ye Zhiqing to have such a violent reaction.

Like a gust of warm wind, it easily touched the most secret and dark corner of Edith's heart that had never been touched by anyone.

Stretching his arms and hugging him tightly, Ittis' pupils dimmed slightly, and the throbbing that had been suppressed in his heart seemed to be a beast that had broken free from its cage, eager to swallow the Xiangruan in his arms one by one.

He tentatively placed a kiss on Ye Zhiqing's forehead, struggled slightly, and was soon suppressed by Itsis.

The wet tip of the tongue slid from the center of the eyebrows to the eyelashes, nose bone, and cheeks, inch by inch, sucking up the wet and salty teardrops, stroking Ye Zhiqing's back with his right hand, and pressing them hard into his arms, making the two of them fit tightly pasted together.

"Um~" The unconscious murmur stirred up the already ambiguous atmosphere even more fiery, the panting gradually became more intense, and everything seemed to be developing in an uncontrollable direction.

Ye Zhiqing was paralyzed in Ittis' arms, unable to lift a bit of strength, his thoughts were ups and downs, and he was in a state of confusion, unintentionally letting Ittis do whatever he wanted.

"Ye Zhiqing, stay by my side, willingly, and never betray," a chant that seems to be floating on the edge of heaven and below, piety is mixed with wisps of forbearance and depravity.

The cool touch touched the warm skin, Ye Zhiqing's only reason forced her to speak, "Your Majesty Edith, stop."

The faintly weeping tone seemed more coquettish, but it made Itsis stop successfully, and a little unbearable struggle flashed in her deep eyes, and she brushed Ye Zhiqing's messy hair behind her ears, and wiped away the oozing from her temples. sweat, and then slowly let go.

Night Breeze wandered between the two of them, their eyes became clearer, and the ambiguous atmosphere quickly dissipated.

Ye Zhiqing's face was still flushed, and he looked away with inexplicable guilt, and some creases were faintly visible on the white water lily petals.

After a long silence, Etis saw Ye Zhiqing staring at the water lily without speaking, with a playful smile on his brows and eyes, and took the initiative to take a step forward, "I'll go and pick another one for you."

Seeing that Ye Zhiqing still didn't respond, he turned around and was about to walk to the lake, but his sleeves were pulled as he wished.

"Don't go," the always cold voice was a little hoarse, silently rippling in the empty night.

Eyes met again, and after a brief silence, Ittis looked away helplessly, and said slowly, "Go back, if you don't go back, you'll catch a cold."

"Yes," Ye Zhiqing avoided Edith's hand, and responded softly.

As soon as I returned to Confucius Hall, I was greeted with the astonishing eyes of the maid as expected, and there was another burst of panic.

The two showered separately.

Letting the warm water flow by, soothing the tense nerves, Ye Zhiqing closed his eyes and submerged himself in the water. Everything that happened tonight was too unbelievable, and the moist touch seemed to be still on his lips.

It wasn't until the water turned slightly cooler that Ye Zhiqing came out unhurriedly and walked to the main hall, but there was no sign of Etis.

After thinking about it for a while, he should have gone back to Ari Palace, and without asking any further questions, he took something similar to ginger soup from the maid, drank it, and walked straight to the bedroom.

The quiet promenade connected the square courtyard, Ye Zhiqing walked through the sparsely lit path, pushed open the bedroom door, and then closed it.

Its, who was changing clothes, suddenly froze, and slowed down after seeing the person coming.

The beautiful carcass is outlined with beautiful and attractive curves by the bright lights, not as weak as most women, and the smooth and tight muscle lines make her look more wild and tempting.

The base of the ear was repeatedly washed by the blood, and the fever quickly spread to the cheeks. Ye Zhiqing swallowed unconsciously, and after being stunned for a long time, he was extremely embarrassed and turned around in a panic.

Why did Edith change clothes in her dormitory naked, and she was annoyed with Edith's playful laughter.

Ittis put on her clothes slowly, with a casual and lazy arrogant posture, and her playful eyes fell on Ye Zhiqing from the beginning to the end, without moving away for a moment, "Come here and get the medicine."

Ye Zhiqing moved the corners of his lips, breathed a long sigh of relief, calmed down, and walked slowly towards Ittis, healed the wound with familiar movements, and his expression was calm after deliberately suppressing, "Your Majesty, you should leave. "
