Pharaoh

The weather in Egypt is very hot when the sun is hot in the sky, but when the fiery sun sets, the temperature will drop rapidly.Therefore, nights in Egypt are always cool.

In the evening, because the sun was mostly blocked by thick clouds during the day, it was a bit cooler tonight than usual.

Because the young Pharaoh had said from the very beginning that he wanted to rest in the courtyard, the female officials carefully laid a layer of comfortable soft quilts on the cool and breathable linen mats in advance to prevent the cool air from the ground from seeping through.

At this time, the young Wang brother, who was full of food and drink, was lying on the soft quilt with a contented face, and his white porcelain cheeks rubbed against the soft fabric.

The young pharaoh sat beside him, leaning against a soft cushion behind him, looked at the stack of papers in his hand for a while, turned his right hand over, stamped the paper with a ring, and handed it to the next to Mahart.

The middle-aged female officer who was close to the Boy King came over, she knelt down, and carefully presented a fist-sized exquisite gold box in front of Atum.

Atum took it casually and put it beside him.

Yugi lay beside him, watching Atum take out dozens of white pills from the box with his eyes open.

"Brother Wang, are you sick?"

The young Pharaoh didn't answer this question, but gently rubbed his brother's soft hair.

He took the water glass handed over by a maid, and threw the dozens of pills into the clear water.The small white pill melted when it met water, as if a wisp of green smoke disappeared without a trace in the water at once.

The young king raised his head and drank the glass of water.

Watching Atum handing the water glass back to the kneeling maid, Yuyu saw that Atum was frowning tightly, and the hand on the side curled up and squeezed tightly. After a while, Only slowly let go.

That medicine must be very bitter.

You Yu thinks, it can be so bitter that the other one even frowns.

In the past, he didn't like taking medicine very much, so every time he was sick and needed to take medicine, he would ask another to help him take it.Sometimes the other he persuaded him a few words, and he shrank into his heart and pretended not to come out. The other he had no choice but to replace him every time.For this reason, his mother happily praised him, saying that he had finally grown up and could take medicine without being coaxed.

Who said that is the proof of growing up?

The game thought angrily.

Mahat came over with a look of perplexity on his face. He bent down and said a few words to the Boy King.

Atum glanced at him, stood up, and walked towards the high priest Seth who was standing not far away.The three of them stood there talking, and could vaguely hear the word Libya, as if they were discussing the credentials sent that day.

Karin on the side was also whispering something to the attendants around her.

The young prince sat up, and the delicate gold box that Atum casually placed next to him attracted his attention, and he took a pill out of it curiously.

The small pills are pure white, translucent crystals, like very beautiful milky white gemstones.

It's really not easy for the medicine to be so bitter that the other one would frown.

He took another look and felt that his curiosity had been satisfied, so he decided to put the pill back.

"My brother—Karin!!!"

Suddenly Seth's voice suddenly came over.

Yu You was stunned, but before he could react, the old lady officer who had her back to him turned around following Seth's call, and immediately stepped forward, stretching out her hand and knocking out the pill in Yu Yu's hand.

The small pure white pill rolled on the ground, just in time to catch a little water, and disappeared without a trace.

The young pharaoh had been talking with his brother and the two great priests with his back turned. Suddenly, he saw Seth showing a desperate look, and he didn't care to shout Karin's name loudly in front of him.

When he turned his head and saw Brother Wang holding the white pill, his eyebrows frowned immediately.

Turning around, he strode towards his younger brother.

Uh... is this medicine expensive?

Why is everyone reacting so much?

Seeing Karin's relieved expression, Mahat's wry smile, Seth's unhappy face, and Atum's crimson pupils who walked over and stared at him with obvious displeasure, the young man The younger brother looked at his brother innocently in confusion.

The young pharaoh bent down to pick up the golden box, handed it to Mahat behind him, and then looked at Karin.

"Are you all right?" he asked.

"Your Highness is just holding it in your hand." Karin replied with a smile, "There shouldn't be any problem."

what is the problem?

The young brother Wang was at a loss, and his brother Wang glanced at him with warning eyes, then turned and continued talking with the two priests.

"Karin..."

So, Brother Wang looked for help to the old female official who was quietly staying beside him.

"Your Highness, please don't touch that box in the future."

"Is that medicine expensive?"

Karin hesitated.

"It's okay to say it's expensive." She looked at Brother Wang with a little worry and helplessness in her eyes, "But no matter how expensive it is, the king will not be mean to you... It's just that you can't touch this thing."

"Your Highness, that is poison." The old female officer's expression became serious, "The one you took just now is enough to send you to Anubis, the god of death."

"Huh? Poison?! But brother Wang—"

He clearly saw Yatum eat it by himself, and he ate dozens of pills in one go.

"The king will be fine, he is used to it. Among the pharaohs and their descendants in the past, countless people were poisoned or bitten to death by poison. The king is also, since he was a child, he often encountered such things as being poisoned in his diet. Therefore, this kind of poison was specially formulated. When Wang was very young, he was given a little bit, and then gradually increased the dose when he grew up to let his body get used to the poison. Although there are many types of poison, they may not be completely effective. But it can delay the time for treatment to some extent."

There was a wry smile on Karin's face, "Although I've been used to it for so many years... But no matter what, taking poison will definitely make my body uncomfortable, but I can't stop it..."

Having said that, Karin suddenly stopped.

The young pharaoh who had finished talking with the priest had already walked over, he sat down casually, and glanced at Karin.

Karin bowed her head, saluted and retreated.

Seeing the violet pupils staring at him, showing obvious worry, the young Pharaoh was startled for a moment, and then he reacted, his bright red eyes warmed up.

He touched Wang Di's head and lowered his head, as if he wanted to kiss his Wang Di.

But he seemed to have thought of something again, moved his chin to the left, and just kissed the soft white cheek of the prince's younger brother.

"Go back to your room first."

"Oh."

The young Wangdi nodded obediently.

He stood up, and Karin walked over quickly, wrapping a thick cloak around him.He glanced at Atum who continued to talk to the priests, and then turned to leave.

"Brother Wang, there is nothing to worry about." The old female officer said with a smile, "Because Wang just took the poison just now, I'm just worried about passing it on to you."

"I know……"

Yu Yu muttered softly, he hesitated for a while before asking, "Karin, don't I need to take that poison?"

"You can't eat it. This poison is fatal to you. It must be taken from a young age. However, please don't worry too much. It is just a precautionary measure after all. No one should kill you." poisonous."

"Seth did that."

"Ok?"

Because she was not by Wang Di's side from the beginning, Karin was not very clear about some things.

"It's nothing." The young prince smiled, "Anyway, Seth said that as long as I'm still in Egypt, he won't let me die."

"Master Seth seems to be rude to you, but I think he is really worried about you."

"Well, if you don't have an awkward personality, you won't be like Seth."

"……Indeed."

On the way back, Brother Wang met a guard, a man who made his maid Tia subconsciously frown.But this time, the guard knelt down very flatteringly, and thanked Brother Wang earnestly.

Yu You was not a person who liked to make small reports, so he didn't bother to mention what the guard did to his brother Wang after the incident. The guard was lucky and escaped.But when he triumphantly went back to talk to his uncle, he was scolded bloody.

The guard is straight-minded, which doesn't mean that his noble uncle who grew up in the upper class of Egypt is also straight-minded. He naturally asked someone to investigate what happened to his nephew. stumbling block.Seeing the various behaviors of the old king doting on his younger brother... It is obvious that once the king is really angry, even he can't keep this precious nephew.

After being reprimanded by his uncle, the guard finally understood that although Brother Wang seemed to have humiliated his face, he actually saved his life.Although this guy has a lot of bad deeds and is not a good person, at least he recognizes the grace of saving his life.So today I found an opportunity to come over to thank Brother Wang, and by the way, curry favor with this good-tempered Brother Wang.

At this moment, he secretly looked at the handsome Tia standing next to Wang Di, and didn't care about Tia's angry appearance towards him.It seemed that he still didn't give up on Tia.

The young brother Wang didn't bother to talk about him, so he couldn't force him not to think that way, right?Anyway, after such a fuss last time, this guy would definitely not dare to force anything on the maid beside him.

Although he wanted the guard to step down, but he couldn't stop talking without taking a breath, Yu Yu didn't find a chance to ask him to step down.

At this time, they were all standing in the bluestone corridor. The terrain of the corridor was high and uphill, and it was specially built a little higher, so the vision was very wide.The bored brother simply turned his gaze outside to look at the scenery.

Suddenly, the young Wang Di's eyes froze, followed by his whole body.

He stared at a certain direction, with a strange and unbelievable expression on his face.

He suddenly jumped over the stone railing of the promenade, and ran towards the direction he had been staring at, regardless of the surprised or frightened cries of the attendants behind him.

Brother Wang's sudden action made the stunned attendants quickly follow, but during the time they were stunned, Brother Wang had already run away.

Why...how could that person be here?

The game in his mind was completely messed up. The speed of running was already the limit he could reach, and he finally found the person he saw just now.

The man was surrounded by several people and seemed to be taking a leisurely walk.

He stopped, panting heavily.

Is it really...

Unable to hold back the overwhelming confusion and surprise that surged up from the bottom of his heart, he rushed over and grabbed the girl's hand.

"Rebecca?!"
