Return of the Mummy
Chapter 75
Therefore, in Hollenhib's view, it is necessary to cast plaster.
Holunhib explained the method, and Min was about to go out to make plaster materials, but was stopped by Tutankhamun: "If you get it on, won't you be unable to move at all? I don't want that!" For Tutankhamun For Meng, this is too uncomfortable!
Min paused, and turned around in embarrassment—he didn't dare to mess around without the king's order.
"Don't want that?" Horunhib's mouth curled into a soft smile, and he leaned over to Tutankhamun, who was half lying on the bed, "My dear Majesty, I must have misheard just now, right?"
Putting his hand over the injured leg, Horunhib looked at Tutankhamun's stubborn expression with great interest: "Do you want to put on a plaster cast and be unable to move for a short ten or twenty days, or do you want it later?" Walking with a limp... Ah, or my bones hurt very badly in rainy weather..."
In order to intimidate Tutankhamun, Hollenhib put up all the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, heh heh heh, it's an honor to be sick at a young age, isn't it? !
Tutankhamun gritted his teeth, and simply stretched out his hand and pressed Horunhib's head down, sealing the opponent's lips that kept saying hateful words: "...you won, remember it for me!"
As for Min, with a gentle and shy smile on his face, he was ready to put a plaster cast on the Pharaoh's injured leg—ahem, he knows the time well.
Of course, he definitely didn’t gloat that His Majesty would be the first test subject(?) for his plaster casting...he is a compassionate(?) medical officer...

93. The latest chapter...
The Battle of Kadesh did not immediately resolve the contention between the two sides for the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea. After the Battle of Kadesh, Egypt and Hittites continued to carry out large and small continuous wars, but most of them were small in scale.
Because of the experience and lessons of the Battle of Kadesh, Egypt adopted a steady and gradual approach in the subsequent wars in Palestine and Syria, and was finally able to occupy some city-states in the Oronte River Basin and break into northern Syria.
After three days in a coma, Musiri finally woke up.Knowing that the Hittites had lost the area of Kadesh, although a little annoyed, they also knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion.
However, it is not reconciled to let Musiri give up the territory of Syria in this way. Therefore, in the various small battles of Egypt's recovery of Palestine and Syria, the Hittites took corresponding countermeasures, sticking to the castles scattered in Syria, and trying their best to avoid conflicts with Egypt. Armies clash on the field battlefield.
Both sides failed to achieve a decisive victory.
Although Egypt's military capabilities are gradually improving, in fact, the military supply is not as sufficient as imagined-after all, Egypt is a big country, and there are so many people who need food.Even if the production tools are improved, it cannot change the dependence of the Egyptian people on the Nile River since ancient times.
Although the production of food is increasing year by year, with the peaceful and stable living environment, the population of Egypt is also increasing.Hollenhibb thought about family planning—well, it was a pretty unrealistic idea, actually.
After all, which country doesn't want to have many citizens?In ancient times, whether it was Egypt or China, the people were linked to the labor force—perhaps now it can also involve military combat effectiveness.
So the solution is either to increase the planting area of food, or to find new types of food.
Tutankhamun planned it long ago, and now Egypt's population and agriculture are mainly distributed along the Nile River and the delta at the mouth of the river, and the arable land only accounts for 4.5% of the country's land (well, this is the calculation method of Helen Hibb), and this Most of them depend on the Nile for irrigation.
Besides meat food, wheat and rice are the main food... oh yes, corn, sugar cane, peanuts etc...
Maybe we should really plan for foreign trade...
If it was Tutankhamun in the past, he would never have had so much patience to manage these trivial matters-yes, trivial matters.Even if Tutankhamun felt that he was a good king, in his opinion, these things are not what he, a pharaoh, should worry about. This should be the matter of those ministers.
But... now he has nothing to do but these things.
He glanced at the thick plaster cast on his leg—oh, he dared to say that even the mummy made after his death in his previous life didn't have such thick legs!
"What's the matter with you?" Holunhib put down the tray, and looked at the young king angrily.It will be his 19th birthday in more than a month. I really don't understand that Tutankhamun, who is usually calm and cruel like an adult, would lose his temper with the plaster at this time.
"If you lie on the bed motionless for so many days like me, you will be like me." Because of his body, although Tutankhamun returned to Thebes, he completely lost his freedom... Uh, the only thing that makes him feel relieved is that Hollenhib has to watch over him all day long.
Hmph, little sister or something, all retreat and retreat!
However, in front of Horunhib, Tutankhamun would not show such a naive look.Just like this time, the boy king with black and bright hair was leaning on the soft pillow behind him, his slightly sunken eye sockets and thick eyelashes concealed his deep eyes, and the thick eye shadow made his whole eyes look sharp With the charm of a woman... The eyes that looked at Helunxib showed deep affection.
Hollenhib seemed unbearable to be stared at by such gazes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a gentle and harmless smile on his lips, like a handsome and elegant young man who is not surprised... okay , ignoring his slightly powdered ears: "Don't look at me like that, I won't promise you... Min said that the plaster cast can be removed in a few days. Don't worry, you will definitely recover before your birthday The image of a wise man."
In order not to let those people see him like this, Tutankhamun has not been in court since he returned to Thebes—although he is indeed not suitable for exercising everywhere—except for the major events that must be handled by the pharaoh Handled by chancellors Ay and Eumensis.
Horunhib took care of Tutankhamun—because of the plaster cast, Tutankhamun had to ask for help if he wanted to turn over, otherwise it would be easy to crush the injury.You know, even a healthy person would feel stiff and uncomfortable lying on the bed in a motionless position for a day, not to mention that Tutankhamun was still injured.
Moreover, Tutankhamun didn't let other people come to help, and pointed out that Horun Heeb would come - so everyone silently added another level to the degree that Horun Heeb was deeply loved by the pharaoh.
For Hollenhib, this is not a troublesome matter. Anyway, he is now a general. After the war, basically his affairs will be gone.He was also relieved to stay with Tutankhamun in the palace.The only one who feels guilty is sister Hathor...but think about Seke and his baby sister...
Well, maybe the border of Egypt is not very stable now, so Seker should go to exercise again?
So, when you meet a sister-in-law, you have to stand aside, brothers and everything.
Enjoying Holunhib feeding the apple into his mouth, Tutankhamun said that he was busy correcting documents, his hands were busy, and he had no time.
Hollenhib is very good at peeling apples. After "snapping" with a small silver knife, a thumb-thick, translucent complete apple peel appeared-at the beginning, Edjo was very concerned about this thin and long apple peel. The long, snake-like apple skin has been ravaged for a long time—cut the apple into eight pieces, and Horunhib fed them into Tutankhamun's mouth one by one, and the young king expressed his satisfaction.
Sure enough, there are a lot of foreign fruits. The taste of this apple is crisp and sweet, and there is a fragrance in the mouth after eating: "This apple is better than pomegranate, but it is not as good as the pomegranate seeds I ate last night."
After finishing speaking, Tutankhamun swept Holunhib's chest very directionally, and his gaze stopped at a certain two small pink flowers, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Seeing Tutankhamun like this, Horunhib wished he could stuff the whole apple that had been washed but not peeled into Tutankhamun's mouth—why didn't this guy learn well?
Although Tutankhamun could not move around so as not to aggravate the condition of his legs, this young king was young and full of energy.It's too uncomfortable for him to watch the person he loves take care of him in every possible way in front of him every day, but he can't eat it in his mouth.
Therefore, Tutankhamun finally used shameless words and behaviors—for example, expressing to Holunheb that he died of a knee wound in his previous life, asking for pity, comfort, and tiger touch—and finally made Holunheb Promise to make the boy king comfortable with his hands.
Who made Tutankhamun express that he was afraid that he would not control his emotions when he did it himself, which would make the injury worse?
Tsk tsk, although it's a pity that the young king who played the sympathy card didn't trick his general into sitting on him to make his "brother" happy... Well, the future is long, this "great and beautiful" wish will definitely come true!
And last night, even though the two of them didn't make it to the last step, the other things they should do were not at all in decline.What angered Hollenhib the most was that Tutankhamun was lying there like an old man, but his hands were not honest at all, and in the end he was still sucking and licking on two points on his chest...
Early in the morning, he struggled with wearing clothes to cover the two spots that hadn’t subsided, and felt that the two spots rubbed against the fabric, and Horunhib finally got angry at Tutankhamun’s language tone/teasing: " Since your majesty, you have eaten such delicious food, don't be careless and do more exercise to eliminate food."
After finishing speaking, he piled up the things on his case table on the low table in front of Tutankhamun. Holunhib smiled softly: "...You think so?"
If you have the energy to toss in bed, what are you doing pretending to be sister Lin all day long? !Now Egypt is in troubled times, and the labor force can be squeezed as much as it can be squeezed.
******
Not to mention that Egypt felt that the consumption of war was too great, and even Hittite felt that it could not just go on like this-compared with Egypt with a long history, although Hittite is powerful, it cannot withstand the long-term consumption of war.
So after the war between the two sides gradually subsided, shortly after the Hittites congratulated the Egyptian Pharaoh on his 19th birthday, the Hittite King Musiri proposed that with Tutankhamun's consent, the two sides concluded a peace treaty.
As a result, the famous international military treaty document that has been preserved to date and has written records was born in advance.
It was supposed to be the Hittite king Musiri who sent the draft peace agreement written on the silver plate to Egypt, and Tutankhamun drew up his own draft based on this, and then sent it to the Hittite king.In the end, the full text of the treaty was engraved in hieroglyphs on the walls of the temples of Karnak and Ramesium in Egypt, but I don’t know why the Hittite king got mad and said that such an important matter should be discussed face to face.
The news that King Hittite came to Egypt not long ago spread quickly throughout the courts of Egypt.
The other ministers felt quite proud - King Hittite came in person, what a face!As long as he is not afraid of being detained in Egypt, what does Egypt have to fear?
But upon learning of this, Tutankhamun, who had healed from his injuries without leaving any scars, clenched his hands into fists—he knew that Musiri had no good intentions!
******
On a sunny day, the Hittite king came to the land of Egypt with a team of guards and brought the draft contract he wrote.
After discussions between the two parties, the terms that both parties were satisfied with were finally settled.
The treaty stipulates that the two sides will achieve permanent peace, never hostile, and will always maintain "beautiful peace and a beautiful brotherly relationship". The two sides will implement mutual military assistance and jointly defend against any invading enemy. Obligation to extradite fugitives.
On the surface, such conditions seem to be impartial and fair to both Egypt and Hittites.But Tutankhamun smelled a hint of conspiracy (?) from Hittite's easy speed of agreement.
Indeed, judging from the treaty, the ministers of both Egypt and Hittites were satisfied.As long as this treaty is signed, the peace treaty can bring stability to Egypt's northern border.
When the borders are stabilized, Egypt can then open trade routes to Europe, the Black Sea and the Eastern Aegean Sea, making Egypt's maritime trade flourish like never before.In this way, on the one hand, Egypt's commerce and trade prospered, and on the other hand, it promoted the rebirth of Egypt.
Not only that, the peace treaty also allowed Tutankhamun to focus on solving the constant annoyance of Libyan incursions that had plagued northwest Egypt.Although there is a strong general like Holunhib, it is impossible for him to go to every battle... Besides, he has been fighting outside all the year round, not to mention that it is not good for life and health, even Tutankhamun can't bear it. .
Seeing Musiri sitting in front of him, Tutankhamun had to admit that this handsome man in his 30s with black hair and eagle eyes was a qualified king.
Although Tutankhamun has trained himself desperately these years and has a strong physique, no one dares to despise himself because of his slightly feminine appearance, but in the face of Mu Tankhamun, who is tall, strong, muscular, and bronze-skinned Siri, Tutankhamun's natural man's compulsion arose...
In particular, Tutankhamun was brooding over Musiri's affection for his general: "...King Hittite, what else do you want... Didn't you say it?"
Musiri stroked his beard - this beard did not make him look sloppy, but more masculine - looked at the Egyptian minister who was sitting still, and laughed: "Yes, we have A way to make the relationship between our two countries better."
Tutankhamun narrowed his eyes, and his muscles tensed a little, but his expression remained unchanged: "...you mean, marriage?"

94. The latest chapter...
Everyone in Upper Egypt knows that they have three beauties in Egypt.
Their pharaoh Tutankhamun is handsome and domineering with sword eyebrows and starry eyes; the general Holunhib is a man of talent, calm and elegant; and His Royal Highness Anksanna is gorgeous, charming, dignified and noble... Any one of them will give Egypt a good face.
Especially Holunhib, who is not as lofty as the royal family. After more than 20 years, there is no one he likes, and there are no scandals or the like-this is definitely a shining diamond king with blinding titanium alloy eyes Five!
Not to mention those girls who want to fall in love at first sight, fall in love at second sight, and decide for life at third sight, there are many teenagers who have flushed cheeks and fantasize about having an affair with this general.
So, Tutankhamun said, as a man of Horunhib, with such a charming lover, he was really under a lot of pressure.
Although aware of this situation, Tutankhamun expressed that he was not worried at all.Which of those men and women can compare to him?Is it as powerful as him?Is he rich?Does he look good?Is he in good shape?The most important thing is... Does he know Hollenhib?
As a result, the young king's aggrieved mood relaxed, and he felt that he and Horun Heeb were a match made in heaven.But...he forgot that the so-called corners are for digging.
Looking at Musiri's eyes that could not stop looking at his general, Tutankhamun asked "...you mean, marriage?" After this sentence, he immediately added: "Haha, I almost forgot , Prince Zanhananshi is also 16 years old this year, right?"
Zanhananshi is the eldest son of Musiri. He just turned 16 not long ago. He has had two concubines but no concubine.And according to Tutankhamun’s memory, the last life, Anksanna, asked Hittite to send a prince to marry her, and promised him that he could enjoy the power of pharaoh... At that time, Hittite sent Zanha Nash.
It's a pity that this kid was blessed and was killed halfway.
So your son is not too young, so I will reluctantly give you an Egyptian princess to marry—of course, the premise is that I am willing to marry.
Musiri paused, and his gaze fell on Tutankhamun was a bit complicated. After a while, he showed a smile: "Pharaoh Tutankhamun remembers it right, Zanhananshi just turned sixteen not long ago. But that Children are nothing compared to Pharaoh Tutankhamun."
As a child, there is no need to "scourge" the beautiful princess of Egypt. I don't understand anything at a young age, and it won't be good if something goes wrong.But my son is only 16 years old, a child, and you Tutankhamun is only 19 years old, and you are not a kid with no hair yet!
A sharp light flashed in Tutankhamun's eyes that didn't look feminine at all even though they were painted with eyeshadow, but there was a soft smile on his mouth: "How could it be? It is said that heroes come from youths since ancient times, praise Prince Hananshi is still very young and has great potential."
Young people are full of vitality, so, King Hittite, don't come out and jump around like you "old bones".When the time comes, where will I bump into, and say that I am bullying "old people" in Egypt.
Except for Tutankhamun and Musiri who were joking, the other Egyptians and Hittites were silently painting murals.The villain in Hollenhib silently covered his eyes——what kind of trouble are there in the air with sparks, lightning and thunder? !
******
When the top leaders of Egypt and Hittites were fighting each other with spiritual power (?), it was not calm on the other side of the temple.
The temple of Thebes is the largest temple in Egypt.The city of Thebes straddles the banks of the Nile River, and the east bank is the residence of the pharaohs, with resplendent palaces and majestic temples.In addition, there are a hundred gates that make this place known as the "City of White Gates".
First along the edge of the Nile River, the tens of miles long area is the burial area.
During the period of the New Kingdom, when the country was at its peak, temples replaced the pyramids and became the main form of architecture in Egypt. At the beginning, the pharaohs were to promote the divine right of kings; God's temple.
So if the Old Kingdom period was the period known as the Great New Kingdom, then the New Kingdom was the golden age of temple arrowheads.
Those with unique shapes and different styles are either magnificent, simple and elegant, or exquisitely decorated.
Among all the temples, only the temples of the worshiped main god "Amun" have similar characteristics-almost all of them are large in scale, and their architectural design and shape are fixed.
The Karnak Temple on the back of Thebes is the largest temple of Amun.Moreover, Tutankhamun also used this temple as the main building, and further repaired the Temple of the Mut Goddess built in the south, and the Temple of Kongsu built in the southwest corner to make it even grander—of course, it is also far away from Amon. The temple is closer.
Others think that their majesty put the temples of Father Amon, Queen Mutt and Son Kongsu close together for the blessing of Egypt. Only Tutankhamun himself knows...
Well, no matter whether his general is favored by the goddess Mut or the reincarnation of the god Kongsu, he has to be by his side.
In the largest temple of Amun, the north-south square building is surrounded by walls, and all the buildings are located on a central axis, with tower gates, open-air courtyards, columned halls and temples arranged in sequence.
At this time, in the temple, there was a man and a woman, who were the high priest and Anksanna.
Compared with the immature feeling of a girl before, Anksannamen now exudes a mature and attractive demeanor.No one knows why the famed Anksanna will not marry for a long time-people think that Anksanna has devoted herself to the gods.
But only Anksanamen and Tutankhamun knew why she would rather stay in the temple than get married.
Ankesana Gate's status in the temple has been improved step by step. In her heart, the increase in status means that she is getting closer to that person—oh, there are countless people bowing down to the Anksana Gate under her skirt, but To approach him in this way...
Who told that person to be a lump of wood?
Every time she thinks of this, Ankesana feels a little resentful and a little sweet—isn't it his persistence and single-mindedness that she likes?
After praying, the high priest stood up and looked at Ankesanamen, who was quietly standing aside, with a soft smile on his lips: "Okay, Your Highness Anksanamen, we should go."
Anksanamen frowned slightly, and then quickly let go: "Okay, High Priest Immorton."
If it was during the reign of the previous pharaohs, the status of the priests and monks in the temple was very high.Not to mention that during the heyday of the temple, there were about 400 slaves in Thebes, and they were distributed in more than 40 courtyards and more than 80 building plots.In addition, the temple at that time also had more than [-] large ships.
However, since Akhnaton attacked the god Amon, even after Tutankhamun succeeded to the throne, the influence of the temple was not so great.But High Priest Imerton doesn't care about this - in his opinion, power is good, but for those who work hard to maintain power, it's better to entrust their body and mind to the gods as soon as possible...
To some extent, Imerton has a tendency to "see through the world".
However, although Tutankhamun intends to suppress the power of the clergy, the clergy cannot be lacking on this occasion.So Tutankhamun ordered the high priest to come to the palace early in the morning - of course after the contract was negotiated.
******
When High Priest Emerton and Anksanna came to the palace, they saw Musiri and Tutankhamun smiling at each other. For some reason, that smile made both of them feel creepy.
He looked around without any trace, and found that the ministers on the side also seemed to have a little stiff facial expressions, and only Hollen Heeb was there, as if he didn't feel anything.
The arrival of High Priest Emerton and Anksanna Gate broke the weird atmosphere. Musiri touched his short beard with his index finger, looked at the beautiful but quiet and dignified Anksanna Gate, Suddenly he laughed and said, "His Royal Highness Anksanna is indeed the most beautiful woman in Egypt!"
Anksannamen was very calm, originally she just wanted to smile slightly, but when she saw High Priest Emerton's frown seemed to be slightly frowned, Anksannamen was in a happy mood and endured He couldn't help but widen his smile a little bit: "King Hittite praised you."
"I'm not talking nonsense...the saying that beauties came out of Egypt is indeed true. If I, Hittite, are lucky enough to marry one, that would be great."
As soon as Musiri said this, several people changed their expressions again.
Holunhib: Hittite king, what do you mean?What are you looking at me when you say this? !
Tutankhamun: Does the former sentence "beauty" become "beauty" after the latter sentence?Ah, the old Musiri guy really lived too long, he dared to stretch his claws into my territory...
Anksanamen: Married? !Why do you say such things at this time?Could it be that King Hittite wanted to marry himself?That's right, I am the only unmarried princess now... what should I do?Has His Majesty agreed?
Emerton: ...
"Haha, but I also know that this is not something that can be obtained by force." Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became dignified again, Musiri let out a haha in a calm manner.
"King Hittite said the same thing, everything must follow the instructions of the gods... I heard a saying - a twisted melon is not sweet. It's not yours, and it's useless to work hard, don't you think?" Tutankhamun There was still an unpredictable smile on his face, but the words he said meant something.
"You're right, haha," Musiri smiled, and a stream of light flashed in his yellow-brown eyes, "But, if you just obey the gods, wouldn't your life be too boring? Some things , Maybe you can get it if you fight for it? I still believe in the saying 'don't miss the opportunity'."
"Your Majesty Musiri is right." Seeing that the air pressure on Tutankhamun's body seemed to be lower and darker, Horunhib laughed and continued, "As a general, I also think 'Don't miss this opportunity. ’ That’s quite true.”
Before the words were finished, Musiri's eyes suddenly lit up, and a storm had already rolled up in Tutankhamun's pair of black pupils.
Not paying attention to Anksanna's surprised eyes, Hollenhib still calmly said: "However, I also feel that sometimes, this life is as fast-changing as a battlefield—maybe I caught someone who thought he was very A good opportunity, but a trap set by the enemy? Therefore, it is also very important to 'think twice before acting'."
So, this time it was Musiri's face that was stiff, and Tutankhamun was full of joy: "Yes, my general is right. It is also very important to plan before you move. Although the idea of getting what you want is to get it." I agree very much, but I have to weigh whether I have the ability."
The words of Tutankhamun and Horunhib were not very clear, as if they were discussing the "opportunity" issue with Musiri, or they seemed to be talking about other aspects.However, Musiri's bronze-colored face turned black.
He pulled out a smile: "It's true, after all, we are two countries, and we can't rashly make things difficult for the people according to our own preferences."
Only then was Tutankhamun satisfied, and he said with a smile that a grand dinner would be held to celebrate the friendship between Hittite and Egypt.
After the matter came to an end for the time being, and watched Musili and his party leave the palace to rest in a special palace, Tutankhamun, Horunhib, the High Priest and Anksanamen also went to another hall to discuss.
******
After Musiri read the treaty again in the palace, a thin figure slipped into the door without anyone noticing.
"Change your clothes first, what did you find?" Musiri didn't raise his head, and didn't give a single look. He held a smooth red-skinned apple in the fruit bowl and looked at it - it was brought from a foreign country by Egypt. thing……
The visitor took off the maid's clothes, washed his face with clean water, and wiped it clean. The indistinguishable face was Murphys.
At this moment, he knelt down on one knee, with faint excitement on his face: "My lord, the place where Queen Nefertiti lives has been found!"

95. The latest chapter...
Autumn in Egypt still has a lingering sense of dryness. The pomegranate trees are already in bloom, and even at night, you can vaguely feel the vigorous vitality of the crowded flowers.
When Helunxib returned home, he heard the maid said that his mother, Toho Iris, had gone to the Buddhist hall where his father's spiritual tablet was placed, and asked the maid to tell him that if he came back, he would go to the Buddhist hall.
Although Hollenhibb drank some wine at the banquet, he was not actually very drunk.After going back to his room and changing his clothes, and washing off the smell of alcohol on his body, Helunxibu went to the Buddhist hall.
The Buddhist hall in Holunhib's house is like a small temple, with shrines and statues enshrined. Under the statue is the spirit of Hapoquites, and beside it is a small statue of Ugin, the god of Anubis. .
Toho Iris placed the prepared food and incense offerings again, then turned his head and smiled softly at Holunhib: "You are back, have you drunk the hangover soup?"
Hollenhib shook his head, walked over to pay homage to his father, put his robe on Toho Iris, and said softly, "I'm not drunk...you know, you can't get drunk on that kind of occasion. Yes Why are you here at this time, the wind is strong at night, it would be bad if you catch a cold."
"...I know, it's just that I have something to say. I want to talk to the general, and I want to talk to you." Toho Iris looked at his gentle and polite son who was already a head taller than her by the bright moonlight, with the corner of his mouth revealing A faint smile.
"Ah, yes." Hollenhib let Toho Iris sit on the cushion at the side first, and then he sat by the window to block the cool night wind.
"Unknowingly, my son has grown up so much..." Toho Iris still had a smile on her lips, and she reached out and gently stroked the chiseled face of Hollenhib, lovingly, "I Both the general and the general know that you are a sensible child, and the general has always believed that you are blessed by the goddess Mutt, so he has tried his best to create the best learning environment for you, and hopes that you can become a better student than him. An even better general... It turns out that you have indeed lived up to the general's expectations."
Hollenhib attached his hand to the back of Toho Iris's hand—this is a pampered hand, but it is also a mother's hand, as soft as cotton.
Toho Ayres was still looking at Helen Heeb, because Helen Heeb's back was facing the window, so he saw Toho Ayres's eyes were particularly bright: "Counting it, it has been more than 20 years. A few days ago , Hathor told me about the matter between her and Seke..."
"She, told you?" Hollen Heeb was a little surprised, he didn't expect his sister to have a showdown.Is it because I sent Seke away before that it deepened the relationship between the couple?
"Don't you know?" Toho Iris said in surprise, seeing Holuncib shaking her head, she smiled and patted on Holuncib's shoulder, "I said how could Hathor's change be possible?" Didn't you notice, I thought... After all, October conceived and gave birth to you and watched you grow up. As a mother, I naturally hope that you can have a good home..."
The more Holunhib listened, the more he felt that something was wrong... It is normal to say that his younger sister Hathor has a good home, but why did he get involved in the issue of "home"?
"I watched Seke grow up. He is honest but not dull, loyal but not stupid, brave but not reckless... Most importantly, I can see that he is sincere to Hathor." Hoares seemed to remember something, and the smile on the corner of his mouth widened a bit.
"I have been in love before, so I naturally know that as Hathor grows up, Seke's more and more gazes on Hathor represent what it means..." Speaking of this, Tuohe Ai Rui Si shook his head, and glanced at Hollenhib with a half-smile, "You young people are still too immature. In this regard, I just need to look carefully, and I can tell..."
Hollenhib's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little nervous for some reason.His Adam's apple moved up and down: "You mean to say..."
"You are not young anymore. Although I am still in good health, I hope to see my lovely grandchildren as soon as possible... Now that Hathor already has someone he likes, you also need to find someone Girls..."
"Mother..." Holuncib interrupted Helunxib dryly, "Didn't you say..."
"I said let you brothers and sisters find someone who is pleasing to each other, no matter who the other party is, as long as I am satisfied, it is not a problem, right?" Toho Iris paused, looking into his proud In the son's bright black eyes, "But... the person you like can't be married back?"
"?" Hollenhib's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Toho Iris in surprise, as if he didn't know this gentle and kind mother—she, what he said just now... was the one he thought of mean?
Toho Iris looked at Hollen Heb in a daze at this time with some nostalgia. Since his son learned to speak, this kind of cute, dazed appearance has become less and less common: "...but, Mother knows, you and that person's identities... don't you want to have children for the rest of your life? Maybe you can, but that... Even if it's his reason, those ministers and nobles will not be willing..."
After a moment of silence, Hollenhib spoke, with a sense of relief in his words: "You know everything..."
"You are my son after all, I
Holunhib explained the method, and Min was about to go out to make plaster materials, but was stopped by Tutankhamun: "If you get it on, won't you be unable to move at all? I don't want that!" For Tutankhamun For Meng, this is too uncomfortable!
Min paused, and turned around in embarrassment—he didn't dare to mess around without the king's order.
"Don't want that?" Horunhib's mouth curled into a soft smile, and he leaned over to Tutankhamun, who was half lying on the bed, "My dear Majesty, I must have misheard just now, right?"
Putting his hand over the injured leg, Horunhib looked at Tutankhamun's stubborn expression with great interest: "Do you want to put on a plaster cast and be unable to move for a short ten or twenty days, or do you want it later?" Walking with a limp... Ah, or my bones hurt very badly in rainy weather..."
In order to intimidate Tutankhamun, Hollenhib put up all the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, heh heh heh, it's an honor to be sick at a young age, isn't it? !
Tutankhamun gritted his teeth, and simply stretched out his hand and pressed Horunhib's head down, sealing the opponent's lips that kept saying hateful words: "...you won, remember it for me!"
As for Min, with a gentle and shy smile on his face, he was ready to put a plaster cast on the Pharaoh's injured leg—ahem, he knows the time well.
Of course, he definitely didn’t gloat that His Majesty would be the first test subject(?) for his plaster casting...he is a compassionate(?) medical officer...

93. The latest chapter...
The Battle of Kadesh did not immediately resolve the contention between the two sides for the east coast of the Mediterranean Sea. After the Battle of Kadesh, Egypt and Hittites continued to carry out large and small continuous wars, but most of them were small in scale.
Because of the experience and lessons of the Battle of Kadesh, Egypt adopted a steady and gradual approach in the subsequent wars in Palestine and Syria, and was finally able to occupy some city-states in the Oronte River Basin and break into northern Syria.
After three days in a coma, Musiri finally woke up.Knowing that the Hittites had lost the area of Kadesh, although a little annoyed, they also knew that the matter was a foregone conclusion.
However, it is not reconciled to let Musiri give up the territory of Syria in this way. Therefore, in the various small battles of Egypt's recovery of Palestine and Syria, the Hittites took corresponding countermeasures, sticking to the castles scattered in Syria, and trying their best to avoid conflicts with Egypt. Armies clash on the field battlefield.
Both sides failed to achieve a decisive victory.
Although Egypt's military capabilities are gradually improving, in fact, the military supply is not as sufficient as imagined-after all, Egypt is a big country, and there are so many people who need food.Even if the production tools are improved, it cannot change the dependence of the Egyptian people on the Nile River since ancient times.
Although the production of food is increasing year by year, with the peaceful and stable living environment, the population of Egypt is also increasing.Hollenhibb thought about family planning—well, it was a pretty unrealistic idea, actually.
After all, which country doesn't want to have many citizens?In ancient times, whether it was Egypt or China, the people were linked to the labor force—perhaps now it can also involve military combat effectiveness.
So the solution is either to increase the planting area of food, or to find new types of food.
Tutankhamun planned it long ago, and now Egypt's population and agriculture are mainly distributed along the Nile River and the delta at the mouth of the river, and the arable land only accounts for 4.5% of the country's land (well, this is the calculation method of Helen Hibb), and this Most of them depend on the Nile for irrigation.
Besides meat food, wheat and rice are the main food... oh yes, corn, sugar cane, peanuts etc...
Maybe we should really plan for foreign trade...
If it was Tutankhamun in the past, he would never have had so much patience to manage these trivial matters-yes, trivial matters.Even if Tutankhamun felt that he was a good king, in his opinion, these things are not what he, a pharaoh, should worry about. This should be the matter of those ministers.
But... now he has nothing to do but these things.
He glanced at the thick plaster cast on his leg—oh, he dared to say that even the mummy made after his death in his previous life didn't have such thick legs!
"What's the matter with you?" Holunhib put down the tray, and looked at the young king angrily.It will be his 19th birthday in more than a month. I really don't understand that Tutankhamun, who is usually calm and cruel like an adult, would lose his temper with the plaster at this time.
"If you lie on the bed motionless for so many days like me, you will be like me." Because of his body, although Tutankhamun returned to Thebes, he completely lost his freedom... Uh, the only thing that makes him feel relieved is that Hollenhib has to watch over him all day long.
Hmph, little sister or something, all retreat and retreat!
However, in front of Horunhib, Tutankhamun would not show such a naive look.Just like this time, the boy king with black and bright hair was leaning on the soft pillow behind him, his slightly sunken eye sockets and thick eyelashes concealed his deep eyes, and the thick eye shadow made his whole eyes look sharp With the charm of a woman... The eyes that looked at Helunxib showed deep affection.
Hollenhib seemed unbearable to be stared at by such gazes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and there was a gentle and harmless smile on his lips, like a handsome and elegant young man who is not surprised... okay , ignoring his slightly powdered ears: "Don't look at me like that, I won't promise you... Min said that the plaster cast can be removed in a few days. Don't worry, you will definitely recover before your birthday The image of a wise man."
In order not to let those people see him like this, Tutankhamun has not been in court since he returned to Thebes—although he is indeed not suitable for exercising everywhere—except for the major events that must be handled by the pharaoh Handled by chancellors Ay and Eumensis.
Horunhib took care of Tutankhamun—because of the plaster cast, Tutankhamun had to ask for help if he wanted to turn over, otherwise it would be easy to crush the injury.You know, even a healthy person would feel stiff and uncomfortable lying on the bed in a motionless position for a day, not to mention that Tutankhamun was still injured.
Moreover, Tutankhamun didn't let other people come to help, and pointed out that Horun Heeb would come - so everyone silently added another level to the degree that Horun Heeb was deeply loved by the pharaoh.
For Hollenhib, this is not a troublesome matter. Anyway, he is now a general. After the war, basically his affairs will be gone.He was also relieved to stay with Tutankhamun in the palace.The only one who feels guilty is sister Hathor...but think about Seke and his baby sister...
Well, maybe the border of Egypt is not very stable now, so Seker should go to exercise again?
So, when you meet a sister-in-law, you have to stand aside, brothers and everything.
Enjoying Holunhib feeding the apple into his mouth, Tutankhamun said that he was busy correcting documents, his hands were busy, and he had no time.
Hollenhib is very good at peeling apples. After "snapping" with a small silver knife, a thumb-thick, translucent complete apple peel appeared-at the beginning, Edjo was very concerned about this thin and long apple peel. The long, snake-like apple skin has been ravaged for a long time—cut the apple into eight pieces, and Horunhib fed them into Tutankhamun's mouth one by one, and the young king expressed his satisfaction.
Sure enough, there are a lot of foreign fruits. The taste of this apple is crisp and sweet, and there is a fragrance in the mouth after eating: "This apple is better than pomegranate, but it is not as good as the pomegranate seeds I ate last night."
After finishing speaking, Tutankhamun swept Holunhib's chest very directionally, and his gaze stopped at a certain two small pink flowers, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Seeing Tutankhamun like this, Horunhib wished he could stuff the whole apple that had been washed but not peeled into Tutankhamun's mouth—why didn't this guy learn well?
Although Tutankhamun could not move around so as not to aggravate the condition of his legs, this young king was young and full of energy.It's too uncomfortable for him to watch the person he loves take care of him in every possible way in front of him every day, but he can't eat it in his mouth.
Therefore, Tutankhamun finally used shameless words and behaviors—for example, expressing to Holunheb that he died of a knee wound in his previous life, asking for pity, comfort, and tiger touch—and finally made Holunheb Promise to make the boy king comfortable with his hands.
Who made Tutankhamun express that he was afraid that he would not control his emotions when he did it himself, which would make the injury worse?
Tsk tsk, although it's a pity that the young king who played the sympathy card didn't trick his general into sitting on him to make his "brother" happy... Well, the future is long, this "great and beautiful" wish will definitely come true!
And last night, even though the two of them didn't make it to the last step, the other things they should do were not at all in decline.What angered Hollenhib the most was that Tutankhamun was lying there like an old man, but his hands were not honest at all, and in the end he was still sucking and licking on two points on his chest...
Early in the morning, he struggled with wearing clothes to cover the two spots that hadn’t subsided, and felt that the two spots rubbed against the fabric, and Horunhib finally got angry at Tutankhamun’s language tone/teasing: " Since your majesty, you have eaten such delicious food, don't be careless and do more exercise to eliminate food."
After finishing speaking, he piled up the things on his case table on the low table in front of Tutankhamun. Holunhib smiled softly: "...You think so?"
If you have the energy to toss in bed, what are you doing pretending to be sister Lin all day long? !Now Egypt is in troubled times, and the labor force can be squeezed as much as it can be squeezed.
******
Not to mention that Egypt felt that the consumption of war was too great, and even Hittite felt that it could not just go on like this-compared with Egypt with a long history, although Hittite is powerful, it cannot withstand the long-term consumption of war.
So after the war between the two sides gradually subsided, shortly after the Hittites congratulated the Egyptian Pharaoh on his 19th birthday, the Hittite King Musiri proposed that with Tutankhamun's consent, the two sides concluded a peace treaty.
As a result, the famous international military treaty document that has been preserved to date and has written records was born in advance.
It was supposed to be the Hittite king Musiri who sent the draft peace agreement written on the silver plate to Egypt, and Tutankhamun drew up his own draft based on this, and then sent it to the Hittite king.In the end, the full text of the treaty was engraved in hieroglyphs on the walls of the temples of Karnak and Ramesium in Egypt, but I don’t know why the Hittite king got mad and said that such an important matter should be discussed face to face.
The news that King Hittite came to Egypt not long ago spread quickly throughout the courts of Egypt.
The other ministers felt quite proud - King Hittite came in person, what a face!As long as he is not afraid of being detained in Egypt, what does Egypt have to fear?
But upon learning of this, Tutankhamun, who had healed from his injuries without leaving any scars, clenched his hands into fists—he knew that Musiri had no good intentions!
******
On a sunny day, the Hittite king came to the land of Egypt with a team of guards and brought the draft contract he wrote.
After discussions between the two parties, the terms that both parties were satisfied with were finally settled.
The treaty stipulates that the two sides will achieve permanent peace, never hostile, and will always maintain "beautiful peace and a beautiful brotherly relationship". The two sides will implement mutual military assistance and jointly defend against any invading enemy. Obligation to extradite fugitives.
On the surface, such conditions seem to be impartial and fair to both Egypt and Hittites.But Tutankhamun smelled a hint of conspiracy (?) from Hittite's easy speed of agreement.
Indeed, judging from the treaty, the ministers of both Egypt and Hittites were satisfied.As long as this treaty is signed, the peace treaty can bring stability to Egypt's northern border.
When the borders are stabilized, Egypt can then open trade routes to Europe, the Black Sea and the Eastern Aegean Sea, making Egypt's maritime trade flourish like never before.In this way, on the one hand, Egypt's commerce and trade prospered, and on the other hand, it promoted the rebirth of Egypt.
Not only that, the peace treaty also allowed Tutankhamun to focus on solving the constant annoyance of Libyan incursions that had plagued northwest Egypt.Although there is a strong general like Holunhib, it is impossible for him to go to every battle... Besides, he has been fighting outside all the year round, not to mention that it is not good for life and health, even Tutankhamun can't bear it. .
Seeing Musiri sitting in front of him, Tutankhamun had to admit that this handsome man in his 30s with black hair and eagle eyes was a qualified king.
Although Tutankhamun has trained himself desperately these years and has a strong physique, no one dares to despise himself because of his slightly feminine appearance, but in the face of Mu Tankhamun, who is tall, strong, muscular, and bronze-skinned Siri, Tutankhamun's natural man's compulsion arose...
In particular, Tutankhamun was brooding over Musiri's affection for his general: "...King Hittite, what else do you want... Didn't you say it?"
Musiri stroked his beard - this beard did not make him look sloppy, but more masculine - looked at the Egyptian minister who was sitting still, and laughed: "Yes, we have A way to make the relationship between our two countries better."
Tutankhamun narrowed his eyes, and his muscles tensed a little, but his expression remained unchanged: "...you mean, marriage?"
94
94. The latest chapter...
Everyone in Upper Egypt knows that they have three beauties in Egypt.
Their pharaoh Tutankhamun is handsome and domineering with sword eyebrows and starry eyes; the general Holunhib is a man of talent, calm and elegant; and His Royal Highness Anksanna is gorgeous, charming, dignified and noble... Any one of them will give Egypt a good face.
Especially Holunhib, who is not as lofty as the royal family. After more than 20 years, there is no one he likes, and there are no scandals or the like-this is definitely a shining diamond king with blinding titanium alloy eyes Five!
Not to mention those girls who want to fall in love at first sight, fall in love at second sight, and decide for life at third sight, there are many teenagers who have flushed cheeks and fantasize about having an affair with this general.
So, Tutankhamun said, as a man of Horunhib, with such a charming lover, he was really under a lot of pressure.
Although aware of this situation, Tutankhamun expressed that he was not worried at all.Which of those men and women can compare to him?Is it as powerful as him?Is he rich?Does he look good?Is he in good shape?The most important thing is... Does he know Hollenhib?
As a result, the young king's aggrieved mood relaxed, and he felt that he and Horun Heeb were a match made in heaven.But...he forgot that the so-called corners are for digging.
Looking at Musiri's eyes that could not stop looking at his general, Tutankhamun asked "...you mean, marriage?" After this sentence, he immediately added: "Haha, I almost forgot , Prince Zanhananshi is also 16 years old this year, right?"
Zanhananshi is the eldest son of Musiri. He just turned 16 not long ago. He has had two concubines but no concubine.And according to Tutankhamun’s memory, the last life, Anksanna, asked Hittite to send a prince to marry her, and promised him that he could enjoy the power of pharaoh... At that time, Hittite sent Zanha Nash.
It's a pity that this kid was blessed and was killed halfway.
So your son is not too young, so I will reluctantly give you an Egyptian princess to marry—of course, the premise is that I am willing to marry.
Musiri paused, and his gaze fell on Tutankhamun was a bit complicated. After a while, he showed a smile: "Pharaoh Tutankhamun remembers it right, Zanhananshi just turned sixteen not long ago. But that Children are nothing compared to Pharaoh Tutankhamun."
As a child, there is no need to "scourge" the beautiful princess of Egypt. I don't understand anything at a young age, and it won't be good if something goes wrong.But my son is only 16 years old, a child, and you Tutankhamun is only 19 years old, and you are not a kid with no hair yet!
A sharp light flashed in Tutankhamun's eyes that didn't look feminine at all even though they were painted with eyeshadow, but there was a soft smile on his mouth: "How could it be? It is said that heroes come from youths since ancient times, praise Prince Hananshi is still very young and has great potential."
Young people are full of vitality, so, King Hittite, don't come out and jump around like you "old bones".When the time comes, where will I bump into, and say that I am bullying "old people" in Egypt.
Except for Tutankhamun and Musiri who were joking, the other Egyptians and Hittites were silently painting murals.The villain in Hollenhib silently covered his eyes——what kind of trouble are there in the air with sparks, lightning and thunder? !
******
When the top leaders of Egypt and Hittites were fighting each other with spiritual power (?), it was not calm on the other side of the temple.
The temple of Thebes is the largest temple in Egypt.The city of Thebes straddles the banks of the Nile River, and the east bank is the residence of the pharaohs, with resplendent palaces and majestic temples.In addition, there are a hundred gates that make this place known as the "City of White Gates".
First along the edge of the Nile River, the tens of miles long area is the burial area.
During the period of the New Kingdom, when the country was at its peak, temples replaced the pyramids and became the main form of architecture in Egypt. At the beginning, the pharaohs were to promote the divine right of kings; God's temple.
So if the Old Kingdom period was the period known as the Great New Kingdom, then the New Kingdom was the golden age of temple arrowheads.
Those with unique shapes and different styles are either magnificent, simple and elegant, or exquisitely decorated.
Among all the temples, only the temples of the worshiped main god "Amun" have similar characteristics-almost all of them are large in scale, and their architectural design and shape are fixed.
The Karnak Temple on the back of Thebes is the largest temple of Amun.Moreover, Tutankhamun also used this temple as the main building, and further repaired the Temple of the Mut Goddess built in the south, and the Temple of Kongsu built in the southwest corner to make it even grander—of course, it is also far away from Amon. The temple is closer.
Others think that their majesty put the temples of Father Amon, Queen Mutt and Son Kongsu close together for the blessing of Egypt. Only Tutankhamun himself knows...
Well, no matter whether his general is favored by the goddess Mut or the reincarnation of the god Kongsu, he has to be by his side.
In the largest temple of Amun, the north-south square building is surrounded by walls, and all the buildings are located on a central axis, with tower gates, open-air courtyards, columned halls and temples arranged in sequence.
At this time, in the temple, there was a man and a woman, who were the high priest and Anksanna.
Compared with the immature feeling of a girl before, Anksannamen now exudes a mature and attractive demeanor.No one knows why the famed Anksanna will not marry for a long time-people think that Anksanna has devoted herself to the gods.
But only Anksanamen and Tutankhamun knew why she would rather stay in the temple than get married.
Ankesana Gate's status in the temple has been improved step by step. In her heart, the increase in status means that she is getting closer to that person—oh, there are countless people bowing down to the Anksana Gate under her skirt, but To approach him in this way...
Who told that person to be a lump of wood?
Every time she thinks of this, Ankesana feels a little resentful and a little sweet—isn't it his persistence and single-mindedness that she likes?
After praying, the high priest stood up and looked at Ankesanamen, who was quietly standing aside, with a soft smile on his lips: "Okay, Your Highness Anksanamen, we should go."
Anksanamen frowned slightly, and then quickly let go: "Okay, High Priest Immorton."
If it was during the reign of the previous pharaohs, the status of the priests and monks in the temple was very high.Not to mention that during the heyday of the temple, there were about 400 slaves in Thebes, and they were distributed in more than 40 courtyards and more than 80 building plots.In addition, the temple at that time also had more than [-] large ships.
However, since Akhnaton attacked the god Amon, even after Tutankhamun succeeded to the throne, the influence of the temple was not so great.But High Priest Imerton doesn't care about this - in his opinion, power is good, but for those who work hard to maintain power, it's better to entrust their body and mind to the gods as soon as possible...
To some extent, Imerton has a tendency to "see through the world".
However, although Tutankhamun intends to suppress the power of the clergy, the clergy cannot be lacking on this occasion.So Tutankhamun ordered the high priest to come to the palace early in the morning - of course after the contract was negotiated.
******
When High Priest Emerton and Anksanna came to the palace, they saw Musiri and Tutankhamun smiling at each other. For some reason, that smile made both of them feel creepy.
He looked around without any trace, and found that the ministers on the side also seemed to have a little stiff facial expressions, and only Hollen Heeb was there, as if he didn't feel anything.
The arrival of High Priest Emerton and Anksanna Gate broke the weird atmosphere. Musiri touched his short beard with his index finger, looked at the beautiful but quiet and dignified Anksanna Gate, Suddenly he laughed and said, "His Royal Highness Anksanna is indeed the most beautiful woman in Egypt!"
Anksannamen was very calm, originally she just wanted to smile slightly, but when she saw High Priest Emerton's frown seemed to be slightly frowned, Anksannamen was in a happy mood and endured He couldn't help but widen his smile a little bit: "King Hittite praised you."
"I'm not talking nonsense...the saying that beauties came out of Egypt is indeed true. If I, Hittite, are lucky enough to marry one, that would be great."
As soon as Musiri said this, several people changed their expressions again.
Holunhib: Hittite king, what do you mean?What are you looking at me when you say this? !
Tutankhamun: Does the former sentence "beauty" become "beauty" after the latter sentence?Ah, the old Musiri guy really lived too long, he dared to stretch his claws into my territory...
Anksanamen: Married? !Why do you say such things at this time?Could it be that King Hittite wanted to marry himself?That's right, I am the only unmarried princess now... what should I do?Has His Majesty agreed?
Emerton: ...
"Haha, but I also know that this is not something that can be obtained by force." Seeing that the atmosphere suddenly became dignified again, Musiri let out a haha in a calm manner.
"King Hittite said the same thing, everything must follow the instructions of the gods... I heard a saying - a twisted melon is not sweet. It's not yours, and it's useless to work hard, don't you think?" Tutankhamun There was still an unpredictable smile on his face, but the words he said meant something.
"You're right, haha," Musiri smiled, and a stream of light flashed in his yellow-brown eyes, "But, if you just obey the gods, wouldn't your life be too boring? Some things , Maybe you can get it if you fight for it? I still believe in the saying 'don't miss the opportunity'."
"Your Majesty Musiri is right." Seeing that the air pressure on Tutankhamun's body seemed to be lower and darker, Horunhib laughed and continued, "As a general, I also think 'Don't miss this opportunity. ’ That’s quite true.”
Before the words were finished, Musiri's eyes suddenly lit up, and a storm had already rolled up in Tutankhamun's pair of black pupils.
Not paying attention to Anksanna's surprised eyes, Hollenhib still calmly said: "However, I also feel that sometimes, this life is as fast-changing as a battlefield—maybe I caught someone who thought he was very A good opportunity, but a trap set by the enemy? Therefore, it is also very important to 'think twice before acting'."
So, this time it was Musiri's face that was stiff, and Tutankhamun was full of joy: "Yes, my general is right. It is also very important to plan before you move. Although the idea of getting what you want is to get it." I agree very much, but I have to weigh whether I have the ability."
The words of Tutankhamun and Horunhib were not very clear, as if they were discussing the "opportunity" issue with Musiri, or they seemed to be talking about other aspects.However, Musiri's bronze-colored face turned black.
He pulled out a smile: "It's true, after all, we are two countries, and we can't rashly make things difficult for the people according to our own preferences."
Only then was Tutankhamun satisfied, and he said with a smile that a grand dinner would be held to celebrate the friendship between Hittite and Egypt.
After the matter came to an end for the time being, and watched Musili and his party leave the palace to rest in a special palace, Tutankhamun, Horunhib, the High Priest and Anksanamen also went to another hall to discuss.
******
After Musiri read the treaty again in the palace, a thin figure slipped into the door without anyone noticing.
"Change your clothes first, what did you find?" Musiri didn't raise his head, and didn't give a single look. He held a smooth red-skinned apple in the fruit bowl and looked at it - it was brought from a foreign country by Egypt. thing……
The visitor took off the maid's clothes, washed his face with clean water, and wiped it clean. The indistinguishable face was Murphys.
At this moment, he knelt down on one knee, with faint excitement on his face: "My lord, the place where Queen Nefertiti lives has been found!"

95. The latest chapter...
Autumn in Egypt still has a lingering sense of dryness. The pomegranate trees are already in bloom, and even at night, you can vaguely feel the vigorous vitality of the crowded flowers.
When Helunxib returned home, he heard the maid said that his mother, Toho Iris, had gone to the Buddhist hall where his father's spiritual tablet was placed, and asked the maid to tell him that if he came back, he would go to the Buddhist hall.
Although Hollenhibb drank some wine at the banquet, he was not actually very drunk.After going back to his room and changing his clothes, and washing off the smell of alcohol on his body, Helunxibu went to the Buddhist hall.
The Buddhist hall in Holunhib's house is like a small temple, with shrines and statues enshrined. Under the statue is the spirit of Hapoquites, and beside it is a small statue of Ugin, the god of Anubis. .
Toho Iris placed the prepared food and incense offerings again, then turned his head and smiled softly at Holunhib: "You are back, have you drunk the hangover soup?"
Hollenhib shook his head, walked over to pay homage to his father, put his robe on Toho Iris, and said softly, "I'm not drunk...you know, you can't get drunk on that kind of occasion. Yes Why are you here at this time, the wind is strong at night, it would be bad if you catch a cold."
"...I know, it's just that I have something to say. I want to talk to the general, and I want to talk to you." Toho Iris looked at his gentle and polite son who was already a head taller than her by the bright moonlight, with the corner of his mouth revealing A faint smile.
"Ah, yes." Hollenhib let Toho Iris sit on the cushion at the side first, and then he sat by the window to block the cool night wind.
"Unknowingly, my son has grown up so much..." Toho Iris still had a smile on her lips, and she reached out and gently stroked the chiseled face of Hollenhib, lovingly, "I Both the general and the general know that you are a sensible child, and the general has always believed that you are blessed by the goddess Mutt, so he has tried his best to create the best learning environment for you, and hopes that you can become a better student than him. An even better general... It turns out that you have indeed lived up to the general's expectations."
Hollenhib attached his hand to the back of Toho Iris's hand—this is a pampered hand, but it is also a mother's hand, as soft as cotton.
Toho Ayres was still looking at Helen Heeb, because Helen Heeb's back was facing the window, so he saw Toho Ayres's eyes were particularly bright: "Counting it, it has been more than 20 years. A few days ago , Hathor told me about the matter between her and Seke..."
"She, told you?" Hollen Heeb was a little surprised, he didn't expect his sister to have a showdown.Is it because I sent Seke away before that it deepened the relationship between the couple?
"Don't you know?" Toho Iris said in surprise, seeing Holuncib shaking her head, she smiled and patted on Holuncib's shoulder, "I said how could Hathor's change be possible?" Didn't you notice, I thought... After all, October conceived and gave birth to you and watched you grow up. As a mother, I naturally hope that you can have a good home..."
The more Holunhib listened, the more he felt that something was wrong... It is normal to say that his younger sister Hathor has a good home, but why did he get involved in the issue of "home"?
"I watched Seke grow up. He is honest but not dull, loyal but not stupid, brave but not reckless... Most importantly, I can see that he is sincere to Hathor." Hoares seemed to remember something, and the smile on the corner of his mouth widened a bit.
"I have been in love before, so I naturally know that as Hathor grows up, Seke's more and more gazes on Hathor represent what it means..." Speaking of this, Tuohe Ai Rui Si shook his head, and glanced at Hollenhib with a half-smile, "You young people are still too immature. In this regard, I just need to look carefully, and I can tell..."
Hollenhib's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a little nervous for some reason.His Adam's apple moved up and down: "You mean to say..."
"You are not young anymore. Although I am still in good health, I hope to see my lovely grandchildren as soon as possible... Now that Hathor already has someone he likes, you also need to find someone Girls..."
"Mother..." Holuncib interrupted Helunxib dryly, "Didn't you say..."
"I said let you brothers and sisters find someone who is pleasing to each other, no matter who the other party is, as long as I am satisfied, it is not a problem, right?" Toho Iris paused, looking into his proud In the son's bright black eyes, "But... the person you like can't be married back?"
"?" Hollenhib's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at Toho Iris in surprise, as if he didn't know this gentle and kind mother—she, what he said just now... was the one he thought of mean?
Toho Iris looked at Hollen Heb in a daze at this time with some nostalgia. Since his son learned to speak, this kind of cute, dazed appearance has become less and less common: "...but, Mother knows, you and that person's identities... don't you want to have children for the rest of your life? Maybe you can, but that... Even if it's his reason, those ministers and nobles will not be willing..."
After a moment of silence, Hollenhib spoke, with a sense of relief in his words: "You know everything..."
"You are my son after all, I
