The male protagonist is blackening: Raiders, please be careful

Chapter 106 The Empire and the Rose ([-])

"...the great Assyrian Empire is a country favored by God...this land blessed by two rivers, its splendor, its loftiness soaring to the sky...We are Assyrians, we are..."

Priests and monks chanted hymns in the temple -- even the sound of drums could be heard in the distance.

It was a ceremony to celebrate the annual flooding of the Tigris River.

The Tigris-Euphrates River, like the Nile River, has a regular flood period. People living in the Messo region are good at using this natural water resource to irrigate their farmland.

Assyria on the west bank of the Tigris River is more natural than Babylonia (Akkad and Sumer, ruled by the Babylonians) on the east (Euphrates River)-they have the dense forest on the Zagros Mountain as a natural As a barrier, floods rarely ravage, but Babylonia is frequently hit by floods, and after the floods, plagues will spread everywhere...

From this point of view, Assyria was indeed favored by God.

February in Nineveh was still wet and cold.

The right arm tied with plaster was aching, Bai Feifei fell into deep thought, and the singing and music were blaring, but nothing came to his ears.

It’s been nearly half a month since we arrived in Nineveh, and that man hasn’t been here for a long time since last time——Bai Feifei is still imprisoned, or to be precise, he has become a “constraint”.

Bai Feifei has always been a free-spirited person, even if she has forgotten the past, she can still feel that the former self will never be a stickler.

What about now—how funny, she would be "hidden in a golden house"?
Laughing self-deprecatingly, the dull atmosphere in the Assyrian palace weighed down Bai Feifei, but his heart was extremely heavy──
Run away, the LORD will protect you wherever you flee...

Bai Feifei remembered what the slave girl named "Esteri" had said to him—in retrospect, she should be a Jew captured by the Assyrians.

……escape?
What a seductive word.

But... where should I escape to...

In fact, if she just stays here and waits for the unification of Assyria, she will naturally be able to complete the task.
Just thinking of Shar's pair of deep light chestnut eyes──
There is a sudden chill from the bottom of my heart──
He is Tiglath-Plasher, the future king of Assyria.

If the information is correct, it is this man who has made great military exploits throughout his life and unified the entire Mesopotamia──
If you disobey this man--
peeling?Severing limbs...or becoming a soldier's martyr?
Is it safe to stay by his side?Could she really bear to stay by his side?
"If you dare to escape, I will hang all the maids..."

He even used such words to threaten himself──He really treats human life as nothing and shows no mercy!

Facing such a terrifying man, there is nowhere to run!
But Bai Feifei is still unwilling to stay here──
She felt an extremely dangerous aura from this man

into the night.

Inside the Nineveh Palace, torches were lit, and the glazed decorations sparkled under the light of the golden flames.

It is singing and dancing.

Sitting among the princes, nobles and envoys from various countries in West Asia who came to pay tribute, Mirida was holding the wine just poured by her attendants.

Before taking a sip, she was drunk.

Mirida was the first princess of Syria and the most beautiful woman in Syria.She has beautiful blonde hair and a pair of charming blue eyes, which make her look even more outstanding.

Mirida, who maintains a noble status, has always wanted to marry a man who can match her.

But unexpectedly, her father, who always doted on her, sent her to Assyria—in name only for trade, but actually wanted her to marry the crown prince of Assyria!
