The Pharaoh’s Concubine

Chapter 6: Fuming

Views:

Unknowingly, more than a month has passed. During this period of time, Margot not only prepared medicines by herself every day, but also changed the gloomy palace of Ramses in her free time. All those dark curtains were replaced by light-colored ones painted with papyrus patterns, and newly picked lotus flowers were placed in the room, with fresh dew on the petals, which changed into colorful colors under the sun.

During this period of time, Prince Turner also often asked her to have dinner together, and the two got along very well.

As soon as Margot stepped into Ramses' room today, she sensed that something was wrong with him. Looking at the enemy killer next to him, he also looked listless. In the past few days, she has also gotten acquainted with the enemy killer. Although the opponent still often despises her with disdainful eyes, he obviously has no hostility towards her. Sometimes she stroked its fur carefully, and it rarely acquiesced.

As usual, she reached out and touched its back, but unexpectedly, it suddenly became angry, growled, and bit her wrist mercilessly!

"Enemy killer!" Ramses also noticed the abnormality, and hurriedly shouted to stop it.

The enemy killer's teeth had already scratched the back of her hand, and she was swallowed abruptly by the master's loud shout. It also seemed to realize what it had done wrong, obediently took a few steps back, shrank to the corner of the wall and squatted down.

"Are you okay?" He asked in a low voice.

"It's okay..." She looked at the scar on her hand with lingering fear, "What happened to the enemy killer? I think it looks different from usual."

"I don't know. After walking around the yard in the morning, it became very strange." Ramesses paused, then continued worriedly, "But I asked the attendants, and they all said they didn't know."

This is the first time Mag has seen Ramses expressing unabashed worry, but it is no wonder that for Ramses, who has been blind since childhood, the killer is his most loyal partner, right? , and best friend. In his lonely and lonely days, only the enemy killer was always by his side.

Thinking of this, she felt a little sour in her heart, and suddenly had the urge to erase all worries for him.

"Maybe it's sick, let me take a look at it." She stepped forward a few steps, walked up to the enemy killer, and whispered, "I know you're not feeling well, so I want to see what's going on for you What happened. I have no malicious intentions, so you have to be obedient and don't bite me, you know?"

The Enemy Killer seemed to really understand, sobbed a few times, and she patted it on the back, its expression gradually eased, and its attitude became much more docile.

She inspected it carefully, and finally found something abnormal in the front paws of the Enemy Slayer.

"Oh, it turned out that it got an acacia thorn in its foot, no wonder it was so restless." She turned to Ramses and said.

"Acacia thorn? Then you should quickly find a way to pull it out." He ordered anxiously.

She hesitated for a moment, and it would be no problem to pull out the thorn, but the problem was that it was her first time pulling a thorn out of a lion's paw.

"Enemy Killer, there is a thorn in your paw, it's the one that made you so uncomfortable, now I'm going to pull it out for you, can you be as obedient as before?" She knelt down and touched it head, discussing with it softly. Only when she saw the pleading look in the eyes of the enemy killer did she grab its feet with confidence, and the enemy killer seemed to know that she wanted to help it, so she remained motionless and let her play with it docilely.

Ramses sat there, quietly listening to the movement around him. Even though he knew he couldn't see anything, he couldn't help but cast his eyes in that direction.

It was still dark in front of me.

Just when he felt a little lost, something incredible happened!

The darkness in front of my eyes faded away bit by bit, turning into blurred images. In the direction he was looking at, a vague outline was actually outlined, and the black and white picture gradually began to have color, and gradually began to become clearer... He opened his eyes in disbelief, God Amon, he actually saw it The appearance of the enemy killer... I saw that girl from a foreign country... The sun shone on her side, giving off a faint luster, as spotless as an elegant blue lotus flower in the setting sun. That kind of concentration and gentleness with lowered eyebrows and drooping eyes moved him a little strangely, and for a moment he even ignored the surprise that he had recovered his vision... Then, he saw her happily raised her head and looked at him He shouted: "Ramesses, look, look, the acacia thorn has been taken out! The enemy killer is all right!"

The enemy killer let out a low growl, and rubbed his head affectionately against her leg like a cat.

He stood up slowly, one step at a time, and walked towards her. Before she could react, he took her and the enemy killer into his arms heavily, and said in a low voice: "I can Saw."

She was taken aback for a moment, then hugged him regardless, and confirmed over and over again with great joy: "Really? Ramses? Really? Did you really see it?"

"I see—that nagging woman..." A narrow smile flashed in his eyes, "It's just a little girl."

His eyes, as black as midnight, shone like water in the thin light of the setting sun, as if something was slightly swaying inside, flowing with a mysterious and bewitching brilliance. What beautiful eyes... She seemed to hear the sound of a butterfly breaking out of its cocoon in her chest and slowly opening its elegant wings... "Little girl, how long do you want to hug?" The other party narrowed his eyes.

Only then did Margot come back to her senses, and quickly pushed him away, retorting in a flustered expression, "I'm happy for you, and, moreover, you were the one who hugged me and the enemy killer first, okay?"

"I just wanted to congratulate, but someone kept hugging me..." He showed a helpless expression of being taken advantage of.

"Who will hold you..." She murmured back, but she was a little puzzled in her heart. Ramses, who had regained his vision, seemed to be a little more hateful than before.

I don't know why, but my heartbeat is still in a mess, but there is a trace of joy that cannot be concealed.

The news that Prince Ramses recovered his eyesight quickly spread throughout the palace, and Pharaoh summoned Margot immediately overjoyed.

"Young man, you cured my son's eyes. If you want any reward, just ask, and I will definitely satisfy your request."

When Mag heard this sentence, her heart moved, and she looked up at Ramses. Today's him is completely different from the past, his whole body seems to be shining like the sun, the ring-shaped golden ornament formed by intertwining eagles and cobras presses down the long jet-black, smooth and soft hair, and a pair of dark obsidian-like eyes. He stared at her domineeringly but without losing his smile.

Ramses, who had recovered the light, seemed to have returned to the light himself. The gloom and darkness that had been there had been replaced by brightness and warmth. However, the only thing that remained unchanged was his arrogance and the mocking look on his lips.

"Yes, Margot, what do you want?" Asher also laughed aside.

She hesitated for a moment: "Is it okay to ask for anything?"

Queen Tuya beside Seti also laughed: "As long as we can do it, we can ask for anything."

"Margo, you came all the way from Babylon, and you don't know where you live now, so why not ask to stay and work in the palace." Turner reminded kindly from the side.

"Turner, I've made a decision." Margo glanced at Turner gratefully, and when she looked back, she noticed that Ramses' face seemed a little ugly. She didn't pay much attention, but after hesitating for a moment, she still made her request, "Dear King and Queen, I only have one wish, and that is to work in the temple."

As soon as her words fell, everyone was in an uproar. There are very few women in and out of the temple, let alone a woman from a foreign country.

Even Pharaoh Seti seemed a little embarrassed: "This request..."

"Wang, although this request is a bit excessive, you have already said before that you can ask for anything. If you break your promise, you may lose your prestige." She reminded calmly.

"She's right, you should agree to this request." Asher interjected at the right time, "You can't lose your prestige in front of a little girl. Just let her do some clerical work, which occasionally It will be done by women."

"But, after all, she is a foreigner..." Someone raised another objection.

"That's not entirely true." Turner also opened his mouth with a slight smile, "I heard from Margot that her father is a Babylonian, but her mother is an Egyptian, which is why she can speak so fluently in Egyptian." Because of this, she is also half-Egyptian."

Margo pursed her lips slightly at him, unexpectedly, he remembered what she said in the usual chat so clearly.

Seti thought for a while, and nodded as if he had made up his mind: "Okay, Margot, in the name of God Amon, I allow you to work in the temple."

Margot almost jumped up excitedly, but she still tried her best to suppress the ecstasy in her heart, and saluted Pharaoh with a calm expression, "Thank you, king, thank you!"

"However, if you want to work in the temple, you can continue to live in the palace." Queen Tuya said with a smile. She had an inexplicable affection for the girl who cured her son.

Margo was stunned for a moment, and when she raised her eyes, she happened to meet Ramses' sight. Somehow, the image of him hugging her appeared in her mind, her face turned red, and she quickly avoided his gaze: "No , No need, Queen, I'd better stay at Asher's house as before. I don't know if you would mind Asher... "

"Why do you mind, I welcome it very much." Asher interrupted her calmly.

She didn't look up to see Ramses' reaction, and she didn't even know why she was flustered. However, this annoying mood was quickly replaced by joy gushing from the bottom of my heart.

Very good! All the sacrifices she had made before were not in vain, and she was finally able to enter the temple justifiably, how could she not be excited

Because what she was looking for was in the temple!
