Return of the Mummy

During the New Kingdom period of the Eighteenth Dynasty, the territory of Egypt was divided into provinces to manage.

It is generally divided into the province of Egypt, the province of Asia, the province of Nubia, the province of Libya, etc., and the province of Egypt is also divided into thirty or forty states (Nome).Each province has a governor, who manages on behalf of the pharaoh.

Generally speaking, except for the province of Egypt, the governor of the Nubian province must be a member of the royal family.

It happened that Tutankhamun thought that Smenka Rui could not stay or be killed, so he could be sent to Nubia for management.

As for Smenka Rui recharging his energy in Nubia, he wasn't worried at all—the other party was preparing, so wasn't he also preparing?And compared to Egypt, which is vast and rich in resources, how many troops can the little Nubia prepare?

Tutankhamun didn't think about Smenkarui's disapproval.He is the pharaoh of Egypt now, and his word is an order. Unless he wants to turn against him immediately, it is impossible for Smenkarui to refuse this order.

Smenkarri would be jealous of him?Ha, wouldn't Smen Khari have a problem with him if he didn't?

Ankesanamen didn't know Tutankhamun's persistence in this matter, but she also knew that her persuasion would not be listened to by the other party at all.So she didn't want to continue persuading her anymore - since the last time the nine-year-old brother talked to her, she understood that he was no longer the nine-year-old child she imagined.

He is already the pharaoh of Egypt, and the ruler of a country... Anksannamen, who felt a little bit disappointed and unwilling, sighed, and seeing Holunhib, whose expression remained unchanged, felt a pang in his heart for some reason. The gas came out.

Although she also admired Hollen Heeb, seeing Hollen Heeb's appearance, it was obvious that her pharaoh brother trusted him more, and the two of them seemed to understand each other better... She was his sister!Ankesanamen, who was frustrated in her heart, didn't want to stay here and watch their tacit interaction, so she bit her lower lip: "If this is the case, then I don't care. The ceremony is about to start later, I'll go prepare gone."

"You don't mean that His Royal Highness Anksana Gate is dissatisfied?" Horunhib is still concerned about Anksana Gate and Tutankhamun being a well-known young couple.But judging from Anksannamen's appearance just now, it doesn't seem to be a quarrel between young lovers.

Tutankhamun didn't know what Horunheeb was slandering, he just curled his lips—ah, God Amon, don't let me know that after I don't plan to marry my third sister for the time being, Horunhib likes it instead The third sister?

But... for the first time, Tutankhamun looked at Holunhib with a very objective gaze - although he was still a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, with a little femininity when he was young, he was already very handsome and dazzling; With a slender physique and a tall and straight figure; a gentle and polite attitude, a wealthy family, and a lot of power, he is quite attractive to me... Well, no matter how you look at it, why are you all young and promising talents?

"What's young and promising?" Horunhib had just circled some names from the list of winners, when he raised his head, he heard Tutankhamun muttering.

"Uh, it's nothing, the celebration is about to start, let's go down first." Tutankhamun quickly changed the subject.

Malkata is the place where the Opit Festival is held. There is a special palace built of mud bricks beside the ceremonial lake. The tall clay pots and mud plugs are marked with the wooden seal of this important occasion.

When the festival comes, the lids of the clay pots are skillfully knocked off whole.During the festivities, the pharaoh's family, courtiers, servants who fed them, and workers who provided their necessities, including glassware and glazed trinkets, lived in a large complex of palaces, villas, and cottages.

Horunhib followed behind Tutankhamun. The pharaoh went to bathe in the palace first, while Horunhib washed up hastily and then came out to the courtyard.After a while, after finishing talking with Tutankhamun, you can go back to see your parents and lovely sister.

"Let's go, let's go to the ranks!" Tutankhamun, who had just finished his bath, ran out wearing a linen tube skirt around his lower body, regardless of the nanny behind him who kept saying, "Your Majesty, alas, your Majesty, you let me go!" Maya get your clothes on first," or something like that.

The nine-year-old Tutankhamun still has some baby fat flesh on his body, because the light honey-colored skin that was deliberately exposed to the sun made him look very healthy and strong.Tutankhamun, who quickly put on his clothes, saw that Horunhib was still in the courtyard, and immediately asked the other party to follow him to the water procession for the ceremony.

This water parade is the closest opportunity to those Egyptian people. When Tutankhamun took office, he needed to let the Egyptians get acquainted with him as quickly as possible—well, didn’t Holunhib say, “Water It can carry a boat and also overturn it", which is quite interesting.

As for worrying about the assassination, it would be more reassuring to bring Holunhib - he has saved himself many times, should, probably, maybe, maybe he is really blessed by the Goddess of War, so of course he can protect himself, right?

"Let me tell you, Your Majesty, you didn't expect there to be so many people here, did you?" As usual, Aixette didn't talk too much, just kept doing it.And Seke was Holunheeb's attendant, so he certainly didn't dare to speak casually in the presence of the pharaoh, and the person who spoke could only be Herunheeb.

"I really didn't expect so many people..." Tutankhamun looked at the dark surroundings with some trepidation... Oh no, it should be the shiny head.In his previous life, he had never participated in the water parade of the Opite Festival, and he did not expect there to be so many people in this place.

"Your choice is not wise." After following Tutankhamun for a long time, Horunhib was not afraid to say something that would offend him. It's fierce, but it's dangerous for you..."

From Holunhib's point of view, the little pharaoh came here simply because he had nothing to do.As for his small arms and legs, if he is not careful at that time, it will be...

"Oh, what are you worried about! I have nothing to fear when you are here." Of course Tutankhamun knew the danger, but he felt it was worth it when he saw the Egyptian people below who were cheering and kowtowing to him.

Tutankhamun's willful words made Horunhib roll his eyes—Your Majesty, don't forget that I am still a boy of twelve or thirteen years old, and I am still "the same age as a flower bone", not someone wearing underwear.

"see it?"

"Yes, my lord, although the distance is a bit far, it is not a problem." A high-pitched voice sounded, his voice was sharp, thin and slippery, like the scales of a cold snake.

"That's the best, then I'll tell you what to do next. In order not to attract attention, I will leave first. After the matter is done, my adults will reward you." The owner of the deep and dark voice wore a After saying this, the khaki-colored cloak disappeared into the crowd in a hurry.

"Don't worry, we don't just have names." The shrill voice said with a little smug tone.

Ai Xiete belongs to the kind of eyes and ears listening to all directions, although he doesn't seem to speak much on the outside.At this time, in order to protect Tutankhamun's safety, he and Horunhib's attendant Seke had to work hard. When there were many people, accidents were most likely to happen.

With the cheers of the crowd, the Nile River began to turn from the previous small waves to big waves, hitting the bows of the boats on the water one after another, making the boats that were originally pulled by people wobble a little.

When Ai Xiete noticed a little silver light flashing in this direction, Tutankhamun happened to have his back to them, waving to the Egyptian people.Although he didn't know what it was, the subconscious sense of crisis made him rush in the direction of Tutankhamun: "Your Majesty, be careful... eh!"

The sudden movement did not interrupt the frenzied crowd, which was rarely seen here because of the orientation.However, Tutankhamun was caught off guard by Aixette's pounce, and suddenly felt a little unstable.

And when Ai Xiete shouted, Horunhib, who was beside Tutankhamun, also realized that something was wrong: "What's wrong with Ai Xie Te? Seke?"

"Someone assassinated!" Ai Xiete's lips darkened quickly after being pierced into the back by the poisonous needle, but he still insisted on blocking his body in front of Tutankhamun.

"Tsk." Hollenhib was not surprised at all. Assassination, assassination, poisoning, etc., no matter which country they are in, are indispensable.He protected Tutankhamun in the small circle formed by himself, Aixette and Seke - both Aixette and Seke were already fifteen or sixteen years old, with relatively tall physiques.

Taking advantage of this moment, Horunhib scanned the surrounding crowd, wanting to see who wanted Tutankhamun's life.As a result, it didn't matter at first glance, there were several black holes pointing here—it was blowing arrows!

And there are still quite a few of them... Hollenhib is thinking about the way to escape quickly in his mind-you can't call the guards rashly at this time, because this is the time when the people are jubilant, and if you don't handle it properly, you may It will cause panic among the people.At that time, let's not talk about the stampede incident or anything else, those assassins will take the opportunity to squeeze in, and it will be even harder for the people on my side to leave...

"Oh! Nile, please bless us, your children praise you..." When the voices of the Egyptian people suddenly sounded in unison, Horunhib felt Tutankhamun grasping his wrist, bowed his head After seeing it, Tutankhamun frowned: "I didn't think carefully this time...but soon the big waves of the Nile River will come, and then we..."

Before they finished speaking, Horunhib and Tutankhamun felt that their feet were unstable—the water was surging!

"Oops..." Because Aixiet couldn't support it, there was a gap on his side. Although Horunhib immediately asked a guard to come over to block it, after all, it was when the hull was shaking, and there was a time gap...

Gritting their teeth, Holunhib and Tutankhamun both knew that this was a bit dangerous. Just as the ship tilted, Holunhib only had time to say to Seke, "Let the rest be temporarily helped by the prime minister." Just fell into the muddy Nile water with Tutankhamun...

I said, His Majesty Tutankhamun, if you fall, just fall, do you need to hold my wrist so tightly?I can't run - Horunhib, who was tightly grasped by Tutankhamun's wrist, took a deep breath, grabbed Tutankhamun with his backhand and dived through the water.

The gold ornaments on his body were quite heavy, and Tutankhamun took off all the extra things as quickly as possible as soon as he entered the water. At this moment, he was only wearing a half skirt covering his lower body, and he was following behind Horunhib , but it doesn't feel hindered.

"What's wrong?" The assassin on the shore spat at this moment, and the scattered people quickly gathered together, "The little pharaoh is missing, what should we do?"

"What else should we do? Get out!" The leader quickly issued an order when he saw a group of guards armed with short knives and long swords coming down from the crowd.

In a very short period of time, several people scattered and disappeared among the cheering Egyptian people who didn't know what happened on the ship, just because the little pharaoh was tired and got into the ship to rest.

After holding their breath in the river for a while, Horunhib and Tutankhamun showed their heads: "It's been so long, they should have seen the guards, they think it's dangerous, let's go first..." Touching the water on their hair, they will He smoothed his hair back with his hands, still a little shocked, "But your majesty, don't play with your life like this next time, it's too dangerous, you have to be thankful that it's just a blow dart instead of a sniper rifle or something."

In desperation, Hollenhib even blurted out some of the things he had concealed.

But at this moment, Tutankhamun was only concerned with wiping off the water from his face and ears, and didn't pay much attention to what Horunhib said.But before he finished it, he felt something was wrong...

"Horunhib, do you ever feel like you're sinking?"

"Sinking..." Hollenhib was a little puzzled, but when he saw the water waves around him, his face changed drastically, "Your Majesty... breathe in!" Damn it, why did I encounter a whirlpool!

The author has something to say: In such a hot day, Shazi has been reading the biography of "Genghis Khan" for the past few days in order to make the scene when Abu leads the army to fight in a more spectacular way. The font is small five, more than 600 pages , it's hard to die...

In the last chapter, the seniors said that they couldn’t see the picture, so they reset the sand, and the seniors tried to see if they could see it...

In Chapter 32, there was a bug in the sand, and most of you probably didn't notice it.Iron hadn’t been introduced into Egypt at this time, but the sand used “blacksmith” at that time, and the sand had been changed. Let me explain here, that’s it.After uploading, I disconnected from the Internet and left~~ Well, I didn't find a suitable picture today, so there are no pictures...
