Chapter 4: Killer

Views:

Margot glanced at the lion that was staring at her, and just took two steps boldly, only to hear the lion growl in a low voice, obviously threatening. She frowned. It turned out that not only the Egyptians like to threaten others, but even the Egyptian lions also like to threaten others... She has already been threatened by others, so why should she be threatened by a lion? I really can't swallow this breath! Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and walked over.

The enemy killer didn't rush forward, but just glanced at her with disdain.

She was even more depressed. Why does this guy look like its owner

After carefully examining Ramses' eyes, she couldn't help being secretly surprised. This kind of eye disease is rare, and the cause is mostly due to... a trace of uneasiness surged in her heart. Perhaps, she was really involved in a complicated vortex.

The cause of Ramses is not as simple as it seems.

However, with her, the number one miracle doctor in Babylon, any illness would be cured.

"How is it? Is there a way to cure it?" Prince Turner spoke first worriedly.

"I think there may be a way, but I can't guarantee it." She was indeed not fully sure.

Prince Turner immediately burst into a lotus-like smile, and said repeatedly: "As long as there is a way!"

But Ramses, who was the person involved, still had an indifferent expression on his face, as if it had nothing to do with him. To be exact, he didn't seem to believe her.

"Every doctor said that at the beginning, but they all failed in the end." He poured cold water on everyone blankly.

Without waiting for Mag to speak, Asher immediately interjected: "What the second prince said is also reasonable. Whether it can be cured or not depends on the final result."

Turner still smiled slightly: "What my brother said is true, but as an elder brother, I sincerely hope that you can recover."

After he finished speaking, he left here, and the room fell into silence. After a while, Asher asked again: "Then what are you going to do?"

"This is not an ordinary eye disease, but because of a very strange poison." As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Asher's face change slightly. Although it was only for a moment, she happened to catch this subtlety. The change.

"I'm not interested in the cause, I just want the result." His smile always makes people feel unclear.

"I can only try my best now. If I boil the realgar, resin and mandrake root together and drink it for thirty days, it should improve." She said calmly.

"That's fine, then you will temporarily live in the palace during this period of time." Asher said.

"What?" She was taken aback.

"It's up to you to cook the medicine yourself, and serve it to Prince Ramses to drink it yourself. You must never substitute someone else, understand?"

Margo glanced at the difficult prince, and cried out in her heart. While hesitating, she heard Asher say in a low voice: "If you can cure the prince, the king will reward you well. You You can get a lot of things you want.”

Get what you want? When she heard this sentence, her heart moved slightly. Didn't she come all the way to Egypt just to... If she could cure the prince, wouldn't she have more chances to get close to what she wanted

"Okay, I promise you." She nodded.

"Second Prince, what do you think?" Asher turned to look at Ramses.

Ramses snorted coldly: "It's up to you if you want to waste your time in vain, but let me tell you, if there is no effect after thirty days, her fate will be the same as those doctors before."

When walking out of Ramses' room, Margo couldn't help asking what was the so-called fate? But Asher just showed a mysterious smile, telling her not to worry.

She glanced back suspiciously, and saw that the indifferent and arrogant prince just now was hugging the enemy killer, and he buried his head deeply in the thick mane of the enemy killer, motionless. . At this time, the setting sun is like blood, people and lions, wind and sand, the hot wind from the desert blows the long hair, entangles and disturbs, like black mandala flowers blooming wildly, forming a coquettish, The strange and beautiful picture scroll, but with a kind of indescribable loneliness and helplessness.

Margot felt that she seemed to have a little sympathy for him again: the prince who lost his light and was forgotten by many people is also a poor child.

The enemy killer seemed to sense her gaze, and raised his head to show her sharp teeth, threatening her again silently. She turned her head quickly, patted her beating heart, and suddenly felt a cold air behind her. The fate that Ramses said, could it be that she was treated as food for the enemy killer

The days full of hardships have finally begun.

Although she had already been mentally prepared to be tortured, this yin and yang prince, His Royal Highness, still gave her the urge to pour medicine on his face countless times, and then shouted "I quit!"

"It's so hot, you want to scald me to death!" Before she could turn around, he ruthlessly threw the can of medicine that she just brought on the ground with a curse.

She took a deep, deep breath, told herself to be patient and patient, and then went out of the room again, mashed the realgar, resin and mandrake root together, heated it and boiled it into a paste, and waited for the medicine It was cold before taking it in again.

"It's all right now." She held it in front of him angrily.

Ramses took the medicine with a blank expression. As soon as his finger touched the copper medicine jar, he raised his mouth and repeated the old trick without saying a word. Fortunately, Margo was on guard and caught the medicine jar with agility. , so that the tragic scene just now did not reappear.

"This time—it's too cold!" His thin lips moved.

"Then what are you going to do!" She understood what it meant to be unbearable.

He curled the corner of his mouth calmly: "I've seen too many people like you. They always boast about themselves first, and in the end there is nothing to do. If you just want to cheat some rewards, I advise you to get out as soon as possible." Bar."

"Cheat a reward?" This sentence greatly hurt her self-esteem.

"Isn't it?" There was a slightly mocking arc on the corner of his mouth.

"Rameses, don't underestimate me!" After holding back, she finally broke out.

He seemed a little surprised: "You lowly man, how dare you call me by my name?"

"Not only will I call you by your name, but I will teach you a lesson!" She ignored the killer who was staring at her, grabbed his clothes, and said angrily, "Do you think I am so willing to see a doctor for you?" Do you think I am so willing to heal you, you uneducated guy! Occasionally you should trust others once in a while! If you are willing to spend your whole life without seeing things and spending your whole life in the dark like this, fine! Then Just drop the medicine jar again! If you give up on yourself, then no one can save you! Anyone!" She vented all her grievances in one breath, and she immediately felt refreshed, but this This good state lasted only a few minutes, and she immediately realized the mistake she had made.

Ramses' expression was extremely strange, as if he was suppressing his anger and hadn't exploded yet.

Her heart skipped a beat, it's over, she let out a sigh of relief just now, but Ramses must be holding a grudge, ah, maybe he will use her as food for the enemy killer... "Prince..."

"Get out!" he yelled.

"I… "

"Have you heard that, get out right away!"

"knew!"

She rushed out of the room in two quick steps, leaned against the wall and patted her chest lightly. The look of Ramses just now was really scary... "Are you okay?" A gentle voice came from her side.

Hearing this familiar voice, she calmed down a little, turned her head to the man and replied, "Prince Turner... I'm fine."

"It's okay? Looking at you like this, you can tell that you have encountered some unhappiness at Ramses." He strode over and comforted him, "But don't worry, he has always been like this, and the previous doctors were also driven away by him. A lot."

Margot nodded a little touched, the eldest prince is indeed a gentle person. They were also born by the same father, how could the personalities of the two brothers be so different... "I have prepared a sumptuous meal, why don't you come and have dinner with me, and tell me about my brother's illness by the way." With a sincere smile, it seems difficult to say no.

The food enjoyed by the Egyptian royal family is very rich, not only foie gras, fresh vegetable salad with olive oil, fresh beans, pomegranate and desserts, Egyptian fruit bowls made of figs, grapes, plums, dates and watermelon, in addition to There is Delta red wine brewed in the year Seti I ascended the throne.

While enjoying the food, Margot answered Turner's questions, almost all of which were related to the progress of Ramses' illness.

"You mean that Ramses refused to take any medicine for the past seven days?" Turner showed a worried look.

"Yeah, he doesn't take the medicine, and I can't see any progress." Margot recalled the scene just now. Although she was very angry, she didn't know why but she was a little worried about him.

After returning from dinner at Turner's, Margo saw the palace maid outside Ramses' door bringing out the pot. As soon as the maid saw her, she happily told her that the second prince had taken all the medicine just now.

She looked at the empty jar in disbelief, a gleam of joy flashed across her eyes, a smile that she didn't even notice, slowly melted at the corner of her mouth.

That guy, after all... still didn't give up on himself.
