It has been almost a week since La Er's daughter was rescued.

Hikigu, as always, stayed in his favorite place—a pavilion in the garden, supported by acacia trunks and roofed by palm branches.

Hikigaya has been out once since moving in here.

It's not that he's lazy, but that he really can't stand the naked body that fills the streets—that is, the time he went out that reminded him, because Egypt didn't know what cold was at all, so the ancient Egyptians regarded clothes as accessories, In the era of the New Kingdom, although exchanges with Asia became more frequent, Egyptian clothing became more gorgeous, but the concept of clothing as accessories did not change much - it was still a coercive item.

But Bikigu didn't realize this at all before. After all, when he lived in this house at night, there was no one on the street, and the ancient Egyptians I saw before were either from the palace or aristocratic priests, and they were all very condescending (dressed) guy.

But more than a week later, Hikigu still doesn't know the whereabouts of Yang Nai and others.

But Bikigu is not worried, he is still assured of the information transmission ability of the ancient Egyptians, especially the tracing is still along the Nile River. Although the land transportation of the Egyptians is a mess, it is very reliable on the Nile River.

And he was actually a little suspicious that he and the others might not have crossed at the same time. If he remembered correctly, Horus was the first to be sucked into the black sun, then he, and then Yang Nai's turn. et al.

Since there is a sequence for getting on the train, it is not surprising that there is a sequence for arriving at the station.

There was not much extra furniture in the pavilion. Bikigu was not very fond of the so-called high-end furniture presented by La Er. Those things were not very comfortable except for those glittering with gold.

Therefore, in the pavilion, there is only a wooden bed and a relatively large low table made of gold.

Bikigu is lying on the bed. The head of this bed is higher than the bed, similar to a modern chaise longue. The foot of the bed is wrapped in gold and carved into the shape of four legs of an animal. The bed is carved with lotus flowers and papyrus. As a decorative pattern, it is also carved in gold.

In this era, Egypt had a lot of gold because of the tribute from Nubia, and the diplomacy of the [-]th Dynasty was famous for its gold-dollar diplomacy—that is, using gold to buy and appease the swaying kings of Asia.

Of course, this is actually useless. Most of the Asian states in this period tended to be Hittites, because although the Egyptian royal family was kind to the princes, they expropriated their people.

Hikigu squinted in the pavilion. This simple structure could not completely block the sunlight, which was not a problem for him, but the heat was really unpleasant.

He saw the maid come in with a narrow-necked magnum in her hand, a precious artifact of Crete.

In this world, the Cretan civilization still exists, and the super volcano has not erupted.

Hikigu does not remember when the volcano erupted, but only vaguely remembers where he had seen it before, saying that the volcano in Santorini should have been in the era before Ramses II, which not only destroyed the entire Cretan civilization, but also destroyed the entire Cretan civilization. Swept the entire Mediterranean world.

This reminds Hikigu of a speculation in modern times - Crete died out in the Exodus era, and the volcano brought "ten plagues" to ancient Egypt.

And Ramses II was considered by later generations to be the pharaoh in the story if the book of Exodus was true.

Hikigu's gaze passed over the maid who bowed his head. Behind her, the supreme ruler of the Egyptian Empire, Ramses II, was standing there. Behind him was a large number of guards, and several others who Hikigu had never seen before. People don't all look Egyptians.

Chapter Thirteen The Pharaoh's Visit (Part [-])

Ramses remembered his first dream of ruling Egypt when he was thirteen years old, and at that time the idea was about as much as a child would crave for a toy, no difference in quality, but As he grew up, he realized what it meant to rule a country, so he gave up this crazy idea, and thought that the throne should belong to his brother Xena.

In the eyes of the former Ramses, the elder brother Xena was calm and bloodless, completely inheriting the wisdom of his father. Xena was well versed in the rules of the game in this kingdom, and he was also aware of the threat to those Asians in the north, and he asked him more than once. His father and ministers suggested that Egypt should strengthen its ties with the north. He once publicly criticized Akhenaten for betraying the traditional covenant with the Mitannis, which led to the demise of the Mitanni kingdom. Sheena said that Egypt should support the Mitannis. Return to the country and renew the covenant.

Ramses took this very seriously, and although he felt that the restoration of the Mitannis was not necessary, he never doubted that the Hittites were the only great enemy who could shake Egypt.

Therefore, in his view, such a wise brother has absolutely no reason to lose the qualification of the pharaoh's heir.

But fate is so absurd, Set I and Queen Duya finally chose the second son to undertake this great and arduous task, and Ramses had to become enemies with the brother he once admired, especially in his After the eldest son died as a result.

For the two brothers, the coronation of Ramses was not the end, but the beginning. Before deciding the outcome, they both needed to win an ally stronger than the other.

In this regard, it seems that Xena is superior. Although he is not a pharaoh, the number of high-ranking officials and temple priests he can influence is far higher than that of the pharaoh.

Today, Ramses also has many trusted allies, a strict but firm believer in his mother Duya, his beautiful and intelligent wife Nefertari, and several of his childhood playmates—albeit Hirsch. A Burleigh but has become a royal architect, Moses who built his new city, Axia, a diplomat who was also an Egyptian, Armeni, a secret secretary, and a wizard who accompanies snakes all the year round and derives his power from these animals. Great Wu.

But the ally that Ramses desires most is the one who came to visit today. If he succeeds, he will gain the strongest ally, his power will be unshakable and surpass any pharaoh, and there will be hope. To complete the important task that his father and mother entrusted him, and even surpass his father's achievements.

The killer was also by his side, but not for demonstration. In Ramses' mind, this animal was a companion he could completely trust, more intimate than a brother.

Ramses brought his wife and friends into the mansion, where he and Nefertari once lived together. Looking back on the good times in the past, he was quite emotional.

Then he saw Hikigaya Hachiman resting in the pavilion.

Ramses didn't quite understand at first that the other party wanted to appear in the image of an Asian, but now he thinks about it.

After all, the other party once sheltered the Hyksos and their close relatives, and Moses was the descendant of those people.

In the era when the Hyksos ruled Egypt, they believed more in their close relatives from Asia. The Hebrews entered Egypt at that time, and the Egyptians did not count the enmity with the Hyksos. to the Hebrews.

Ramses motioned to the maid who wanted to kneel to step aside, took the wine bottle from her hand, and walked into the pavilion first.

"Your Majesty Bikini." He tried to keep his tone lighthearted, because the other party didn't seem to want to reveal his identity.

But his gracious greeting seemed to be ineffective, as the expression in the gazebo seemed distorted.

"I just wanted to ask, who is Bikini..." The "God" in the Asian image looked at the pharaoh very resentfully, "When you gave me a house before, you called me 'Beach melon', my name is Is it so hard to remember?"

Ramses' friendly expression froze...

Huh?Did you call yourself wrong again?That's... beep bone?

Alas!My lord, why did you use such a strange and difficult name!You are the god of Egypt!

Ramses sighed long in his heart, then pretended that nothing had happened, and asked happily, "Ah, Lord Seth, what did you just say to me?"

Well, pretend like this first, and then pretend to call the so-called name inadvertently later!

You are so wise!

Ramses thought happily, and then he very skillfully began to introduce his beloved wife and friends to Hikigu.

In the process, his guards dispersed into the garden, and new stools were brought in for use by Ramses' companions.

According to Ramses' idea, the next step is to directly brush goodwill.
