All the dignitaries in Egypt were assassinated overnight. Such a major event spread throughout Memphis, and began to spread to further places.
Officials originally thought of blocking the news, but this was impossible.
It would be fine if there were only one or two murdered people, but now the murdered people are all the top dignitaries in Egypt. This kind of low-level accident cannot be blocked smoothly no matter what.
So, the news was allowed to spread.
All the top dignitaries in Egypt died at home overnight. Such a thing has never happened in the past. To the people of Egypt, this is simply a fantasy. It has really happened. Rumors soon spread..
Some people say that because of the current chaos in Egypt, the death of these dignitaries was a warning from God to Pharaoh.
Some people say that some recent policies of these powerful people have offended a certain god, and death is the punishment of the god.
There are even rumors that the death of Melaram II was actually not an accident, but a murder. The deaths of these people were the revenge of Horus, the patron saint of the Pharaoh.
Etc., etc.
Rumors abounded among the people, but the most widespread rumors were about the murder of Melaraan II and the revenge of the god Horus.
Originally, although Egypt's senior officials knew the cause of Melaran II's death, they concealed this fact from the people. The official news was that Melaran II died of old age.
After all, although these high-ranking officials dared to murder the Pharaoh, they did not dare to let the ordinary people in Egypt know all this. After all, in the minds of those ignorant ordinary people, the Pharaoh was the descendant of the gods and a god walking on the earth.
They can die of old age and die in various ways, but they must not be killed by others, especially ministers like them.
Otherwise, they will only be hated by the people.
However, now, this fact that had been sealed for several years began to spread for some unknown reason, and was soon believed by many people.
If it were in the past, when those powerful people were still alive, they would naturally be alert to this and try to block the rumors.
But now, all the true owners of the rumors are dead, and Memphis is in chaos due to the lack of power. Who else can stop the spread of rumors?
In fact, the source of the rumor was none other than Ye Ting.
This was also part of his and Nitocris' plan.
This was a way for Nitocles to regain power in Egypt after completing the murder, and to prevent the powerful men's subordinates from retaliating against the Pharaoh after the death of their boss, or to replace the Pharaoh in their place.
You must know that murdering the previous generation of pharaohs, supporting him and using him as a puppet is not something that can be accomplished by the collusion of one or two, or all the upper-class dignitaries.
If they want to complete such a mission to subvert Egypt, although these powerful people have enough power, they must also have a group of party members to cheer for them and be responsible for many details of the plan.
There have always been three powers that ruled Egypt - the pharaoh, the ministers and the priests. They represented the king's power, the prime minister's power and the divine power respectively.
Among them, because the Pharaoh has the status of a descendant of the God, a large part of the divine power is in the hands of the Pharaoh. In this case, the ministers and priests are just the servants of the Pharaoh, allowing them to take whatever they want.
However, starting from the time of Pharaoh Pepi, the usurpation of power by the powerful was essentially the alliance of ministers and priests, which suppressed the royal power through divine power and prime ministerial power.
This is not easy, but once it is done, it is also difficult to reverse.
For these usurpers and partisans represented the power of the priestly and official classes.
Therefore, if Nitocris mishandles the situation, even if she succeeds in revenge and kills those who usurped power, power will continue to be instigated by the successors - they are not one person, several people fighting, but an entire class.
So, what should Nitocris do to avoid this happening?
To be honest, although Ye Ting has never held the throne, he has indeed held high positions in several worlds. Coupled with thousands of years of accumulated experience in modern society, Ye Ting is definitely better than Nitocris in terms of fighting for power. Come sharp.
He knew deeply that if Nitocris wanted to truly gain power, even if she was strong and had his help, it would not be enough.
Even if Ye Ting alone could kill all the ministers and priests in Egypt, so what?
That will only lead to greater troubles, such as God's punishment, people's incomprehension, no one to handle government affairs, etc.
That’s not how Game of Thrones works.
If Nitocris wants to regain power, she must have enough supporters - that is, the power base.
So having been sidelined since her succession, does Nitocris have her own power base?
Nitocris didn't think so. After all, she couldn't even find a palace maid she could completely trust.
But Ye Ting told him that she had such a basic base, and that this fundamental base was far stronger than she imagined.
This basic base is the people of Egypt.
One thing that is well known in Egypt is that Pharaoh is the son of God, the incarnation of God, and a human god on earth.
In the minds of the people, the pharaohs were great beings comparable to the gods.
It is for this reason that these ministers did not dare to leak the news even though they murdered Melaraan II.
It is for this reason that even if Nitocris is ignored by officials and has no actual power, her prestige among the people is unmatched by those officials and priests combined.
Even though Egypt has been in chaos by these conspirators in recent years and the people are complaining, Nitocris's own behavior has made the people have a good impression of this female pharaoh.
She paid attention to the national economy and people's livelihood, worked hard to develop the country's economy, and at the same time encouraged farmers to cultivate. She personally supervised the farming when the Nile River flooded. Such behavior gave her an image of being close to the people. In the hearts of the people, she has always been a good pharaoh. Egypt The chaos is just a problem left by the pharaohs in the past, and it is caused by the inability of today's ministers.
There is no way. Like some people in the East, when Egyptian people criticize current affairs, they usually think that the king is a good person and his intentions are good, and it is the people below who cause bad things.
Especially when this king is willing to put on a show.
Don’t get me wrong, this does not mean that Nitocris’ behavior is a show, but in this era, it is indeed rare for her to walk among the people in person. The ministers did not comment on this, and even thought it was inappropriate to stay with the mud-legged people like this. Lower your status.
However, it was this act that they despised, as well as the original mass base of the pharaoh's identity, that allowed Nitocris to gain unimaginable fame. _Feilu reminds you: three things about reading - collection, recommendation,
