Aziz brought back the investigation report of the slave riot from Tole City. The reason was that the magistrate Mojo tried his best to squeeze the slaves. The heavy labor caused countless deaths and injuries to the slaves. Watching his companions collapse one after another due to exhaustion, the mining area The slaves finally broke out in a large-scale escape, and Mojo, who was chasing with soldiers, clashed with the slaves, which evolved into a "slave riot" reported by Mojo.

After digging deeper, Aziz made a startling discovery.

For a long time, Mohuo used his power to secretly guard and steal. He smuggled out iron and stone and sold them to foreign businessmen, so as to earn huge profits.

Although Moho stole the iron and stone, the amount of iron and stone turned in by Tole City has never decreased every month. This is all because he forced the slaves to increase the amount of mining around the clock, which is why the slaves in Tole City have heavy work. .

Seeing Lemomena's complexion gradually changing from icy cold to frosty, the sharp eyes like ice arrows almost froze the bright sunshine of early summer. It drew the young regent's wrath enough to burn everything.

Sitting silently in a well-lit room, the ministers who stood with their heads bowed, looked like a bunch of useless trash in their eyes at this moment.

"Moho has been the magistrate of Tole City for six years. Didn't any of you discover his theft?" Her voice was not high, her tone was not harsh, and there was even a hint of relaxation The insouciance of the illusion.

No one dared to speak, and no one dared to stand up and explain. For a long time, everyone was just silent, and a haze lingered from their shrunken shoulders, seeping into the gradually chilly space.

"Aziz, since you are temporarily acting as the magistrate of Tole City, you are responsible for the aftermath of this riot. Properly accommodate the captured slaves, and do not use force when encountering escaped slaves, try your best to persuade them back. Improve the lives of slaves in the mining area and reduce work Time, make sure the slaves have enough rest, understand?"

"Yes, I understand. Before returning to Hattusha, I have already arranged for my subordinates to do it. Please rest assured, Your Highness." Responding, there is no need for Momenna to explain these matters, he has already arranged them properly.

His eyes flickered slightly, and it was hard to tell what was brewing in those tea eyes, but the sudden fright of those eyes turned to other people, it really made the back of the neck feel chills, like the cold wind blowing bones from the heart.

The fingertips of the right hand knocked on the table, the clean and dull rhythm knocked on everyone's ears, like the sound of death knocking on the door.The left hand rests on the armrest of the wooden chair, and the linen cloth hides the mysterious green armor, but it cannot hide the frightening hostility emanating from her left hand slowly forming a fist.

"Moho will be executed tomorrow, and all officials must be present." Leaving the table with her hands on her back, she looked down and swept the hall coldly. , Shocking those guilty and timid souls.

"Execution at the stake."

This is the harsher punishment for Hittite ministers, and La Balsa used this method to execute many ministers who swore their allegiance to Tipietiha.In a way, it was a great honor for Mojo that she had never used "burning" to execute any official since she took over the Hittites.

"Miss, you are so good that you have memorized all the scores." The luthier's exaggerated and flattering expression was very cute.

After plucking the strings, he smiled faintly, but the smile hidden behind the mask was a little bit lost.

It is not difficult to memorize a sheet music, with her memory, it is enough to read it once.

Coupled with the guidance of the luthier, Kalixi has been able to play the Canaan Qin proficiently. Although there is still a certain gap between the superior skills, she can also play the piece intact.

It's just that today's spirit can't be concentrated, the sound of the piano is lingering in the ears, but Sharma's words linger in the bottom of my heart, like the melancholy that can't be shaken off like shredded tobacco wrapped around her fingers.

"Miss, do you want to practice again." After receiving a lot of money, his attitude is different, and his respectful tone seems to have been promoted to the stage of master and servant.

Slightly stunned, he then shook his head and said, "Let's stop here today, we'll go back first, we won't be late tomorrow."

The middle-aged luthier kept nodding, and laughed along with him, not a trace of complaint could be seen on Dui Xiao's face. "It's okay, it's okay, the villain will wait for the ladies."

"Vanessa, let's go." Looking at the girl sitting at the table with her chin resting, it was really strange. Vanessa, who usually chirped like a bird, seemed very quiet today.

When Kalixi practiced the piano, she just sat aside without saying a word. When she glanced at her several times, she could see her looking out the window with ethereal eyes, wondering what she was thinking.

Seeing that she hadn't moved, Khaleesi called softly again. "Vanessa, it's time to go back."

"What?" His eyes drifted away, obviously distracted.

Shaking his head and chuckling, he pointed outside and said word by word: "It's getting late, we're going home."

The last "go home", Khaleesi said very slowly, almost dragging the end.

Suddenly realized, he stood up and nodded. "Yes, we should go home."

This cheerful girl who can't hide things in her heart always expresses all her emotions on her face. Seeing her trance-like appearance, she doesn't know what makes her miss so much.

Suspicion arose and curiosity arose, but Khaleesi didn't intend to ask. If Vanessa wanted to tell her, she would definitely not be able to bear it given her personality, and she just had to wait quietly.

Seeing Lemomena approaching, the servants coming and going in the corridor retreated to the side of the corridor to make way. They bowed respectfully, their heads lowered, especially when she passed by, the pressure on those heads was even lower.

Aziz's smile is always handsome and suave, attracting provocative sneak glances from the young maid. He also made no effort to hide his contemplative sizing eyes, and his eyes lingered on the exquisite maid.

"I heard that Sharma is here." Another maid smiled sweetly and cast a charming look, making one's skin tingle.Smiling lightly at her, he said casually.

"Ah."

Looking sideways, amused by her indifferent attitude, she grinned and said, "At any rate, she is also an Egyptian general. Even if His Highness doesn't like it, you have to socialize."

Aziz's overtones, apart from a little kind reminder, made Lemomena feel gloating.

Turning his face slowly, his indifferent and distant eyes, mixed with a ray of ice-like temperature, swept across that annoying and evil smiling face.

"Where's Khaleesi?" Knowing that Sharma's topic annoyed her, he changed the subject and asked.

At this question, a sharp dark light flashed across the originally calm brown eyes, which disappeared in a flash.

"Accompanies that Egyptian general to visit the palace." After a while, she uttered a lukewarm sentence, and the sour tone infected the teeth of the people around her.

Wanting to laugh, he tried his best to hold it back, he didn't want to risk being kicked out of the palace by Lemomena. "She and Kalixi are old acquaintances. They haven't seen each other for a long time. Naturally, they have a lot to talk about. It's fine if His Highness isn't with you..."

His eyes froze, his thin lips were raised, but his voice fell to the bottom. "Who are you helping?"

"Of course I'm helping His Highness. I'm loyal. She's just a general of an allied country. Why—"

"Okay, okay, I'm not annoying enough, is it?" Frowning, rudely interrupting Aziz's eloquent compliments, those flattering nonsense are more than enough to deceive children.

Unable to hold back this time, he burst out laughing. The sunlight outside the corridor fell on his trembling shoulders, reflecting his good mood brilliantly. "My lord, you were able to charge into battle and force the surrender of Babylon. How did you fail when you met an Egyptian general?"

"Is this the same thing as fighting? If you really met her on the battlefield, it would be fine. But now? Don't say that the sword is on the verge. If I don't smile, Khaleesi will think that I am not being polite to each other. , when I greeted her this morning, my face was numb from the smile."

Angry, suffocated for the whole morning, finally found the outlet of the surging anger, and burst out all at once.

Looking at Lemomena's rarely seen angry face, the green armor around his face shone with a strange thin light, which unexpectedly cooled the early summer light in the sky.

In the final analysis, it was all the fault of the little pharaoh who was spoiled by the sun god. Aziz really convinced Ramenses from the bottom of his heart.The huge Egypt, countless ministers and generals, sent Sharma alone as an envoy.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see the relationship between Lemomena and Khaleesi. With Ramoneses' fortitude and shrewdness, he must have known it long ago.As for Sharma's admiration and ambiguous feelings for Khalixi, Aziz believes that the little pharaoh must have found out too.

Even so, he sent Sharma as an envoy, which was simply... provocative, obviously full of food.

Alas, he was sitting leisurely by the Nile River enjoying the summer breeze, causing a cloud of turbid wind to be stirred up on the Anatolian plateau. He is really a person who is afraid of chaos!

"Aziz, go hunting tomorrow." Suddenly, the footsteps stopped, and the breeze crossed the emerald green water, wrinkling the ripples in the pool.

"Hunting?" He was stunned for a moment, and asked unreasonably, now is not the best season for hunting, and he couldn't figure out why Lemomena suddenly had such an idea.

The eyes fell on the water surface not far away, and the sparkling green ripples pushed a patch of mosaic into the bottom of the brown eyes, which were equally shimmering but differently bright. "Call to the generals of our allies."

Thick black eyebrows were raised jokingly, and the moment Lemomena moved on, Aziz smiled like a cunning fox.

Tomorrow, it will be quite interesting.

"Your Highness."

Turning into the other courtyard, I saw Da Wuxia coming in through the side door. This is the only way to the Yun Palace, far away from the main hall of the palace.Therefore, there are very few people passing by at ordinary times. Compared with other places, this place seems quite deserted.

"how?"

"His Royal Highness has returned to the palace safely." Always respectful tone, always respectful attitude.

He smiled, nodded, put his left hand behind his back, and said softly: "Be careful, don't be discovered by Kalixi."

"Yes, the minister dispatches different guards from outside the city every day to protect the princess, and the princess will not see any flaws. Please rest assured, the regent."

Ten days ago, Kalixi sneaked out of the palace, which alarmed the Imperial Eagle Legion and dispatched hundreds of people to search the palace. In the end, they found her and Vanessa in a small wine shop in the outer city.The guard did not dare to act rashly, and quickly reported the matter to Lemomenna.

Da Wuxia still remembered that when he learned that Khaleesi had gone to the winery from Lemomenna, he was really shocked, and even thought that his subordinates might have identified the wrong person.

To be honest, this little Syrian princess is really... I don't know whether she should be called bold or naive.

The distillery is a place where fish and dragons are mixed, and the people who gather there are gamblers, drunkards, slave traders and idle hooligans. It is the most chaotic place in Hattusha. Ordinary people will not go there, let alone a daughter A delicate princess.

Surprised, but also curious about why she went there.

Without delay, Lemomena and he quietly left the palace disguised as civilians and found a small wine shop in the outer city.The guards waiting here said that Khalixi hadn't come out yet, Da Wuxia was about to order to block the street and enter the winery, but was stopped by Lemomenna.

For unknown reasons, she just ordered to surround the wine shop secretly and monitor the exit.

And she just stood quietly at the corner of the street outside the wine shop, watching the small dim door closely without saying a word.

About halfway through the hourglass, two petite figures with suspicious whereabouts appeared at the door, both of them were dressed in rough linen clothes, with headscarves covering their faces as maids.

For a moment, Da Wuxia noticed that the black figure who had been standing quietly beside her moved slightly, but in the next moment, she was still standing in the shadow of half a wall... her robe was as black as night, like a ray of sunlight that could not be touched shadow, silently.

When they were far away, Lemomenna ordered someone to go to the winery to inquire. When the guard mentioned the word "Canaan Qin", Lemomenna... laughed.

It was the first time Da Wuxia saw such a smile.

Silent but bright, deep but gentle, like the pale golden sunshine in the sky, possessing the power to easily penetrate thousands of miles of wind and clouds...

Brown eyes, with amber mottled light, looked at the simple door of the winery, silent for a while.

Afterwards, she gave an order to mobilize 100 members of the Imperial Eagle Legion to protect Khaleesi. However, in order to prevent the little princess with a terrible memory from discovering, she had to change the guards with new faces every day...Of course, all of this is a secret Khaleesi didn't know what was going on, and neither did anyone else except Darvushya.

Occasionally, Da Wuxia would feel a touch of emotion, but I don't know why.

Perhaps, it is because of the feelings of these two young women who are trying their best to protect each other, and there is a deeply touching silent affection hidden behind that feeling.

Sometimes, the feeling of loving someone is a kind of dedication above life.
