My XX deal with Sister Nero
Page 86
So Tony naturally thought that Menkara was just a pseudonym.
But Tony had no intention of exposing this.
"Oh... Miss Menkara, nice to meet you." Tony coughed lightly, then pursed his lips at the bunch of second-generation officials who were eating and making a lot of noise in the corner, and whispered, "But... Miss Menkara, it's probably not a wise move to offend these guys."
Although the identities of that group of second-generation officials are not clear, but judging from their arrogance, these guys are either second-generation officials or second-generation rich. Considering that the other party just said that it’s great to have some dirty money, well, it’s more likely that they are second-generation officials.
Tony is not afraid of these guys, second-generation officials? Come on, no matter how high your family's official position is, can it be higher than my sister's?
But Nito... Tsk, why don't you help her solve this problem first?
Because he didn't know why Nito was here, Tony didn't dare to reveal his identity directly. What if he came to assassinate the Governor of Egypt? Then his identity as a prince would be more valuable than the Governor of Egypt, right? Tony couldn't take the bullet for others.
"I don't want to offend them either." Nieto shrugged helplessly and lowered his voice, "You saw it too. They came to pick a fight with me."
"All right." Tony turned his head and looked at the second-generation officials who were chatting and laughing while eating and occasionally glancing over here. He sighed and said, "Miss Menkala, I'll give you a piece of honest advice. Leave quickly after eating. I suspect these guys are second-generation officials. They... are not to be trifled with."
PS1: All the Egyptian monarchs used the quinary naming system, that is, a king had five names. At present, the only name that can be confirmed about Nitocris is the Ra name Menkaure, and the name Nitocris is one of the remaining four names. Well, it should not be the royal name, so I will temporarily count it as the Horus name.
PS2: Anyway, I can't get full attendance this month, so I plan to take one day off to adjust to the jet lag. It's too tiring to update two chapters every night, so I might as well take one day off to write only one chapter and then go to bed early, and get up early the next day. In this way, I can write three chapters a day. Well, which day... we'll tell you when the time comes, anyway, it's either tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.
Chapter 231 Let’s go play with my brother~
Just when Tony was about to think of a way to get rid of these second-generation officials for Nitocris, in the distant city of Rome.
"Hmm~ I really envy my younger brother~" Inside the study of the palace, Nero stretched hard and looked at the bill submitted by the Senate on the table with a look of disgust.
No wonder her younger brother didn’t want to be emperor. She had been emperor for more than a year, and except for the last time she went to the Anatolian Peninsula to bring her younger brother back, she had never left Rome once!
"By the way, Nerva, is Egypt fun?" Looking at his good friend standing next to him, Nero's eyes suddenly lit up and asked.
"Your Majesty, as a country with a history and culture that is not inferior to Rome and Greece, Egypt... is quite interesting." Nerva scratched his head and said somewhat embarrassedly.
Although the young Nerva had traveled far, he had never been to Egypt. As for whether Egypt was fun or not... he had basically only heard his father or grandfather talk about the general customs and appearance of Egypt. He knew that Egypt had the Lighthouse of Alexandria, the magical Egyptian pyramids and so on.
"Well, in that case, why don't we just go to Egypt to play with our brother!" Nero suddenly slapped the table and said to Nerva excitedly.
???
Upon hearing Nero's proposal, Nerva was stunned at first, and then he quickly spoke out to stop him: "Your Majesty, no! Upper Egypt is in rebellion now, it is too dangerous for Your Majesty to go! Why don't we wait until the army has finished suppressing the rebellion before going!"
"No." Nero waved his hand and said solemnly, "As the emperor of the empire, if you don't even know what life is like for the common people of the empire, what kind of emperor is this? Lord Nerva, now please go and call Teacher Seneca, Lord Vitellius, Lord Otto, and Lord Marcus. Also, call General Finius and tell them that I have something to talk to them about."
Hearing these names, Nerva immediately understood that Nero was going to get serious!
The names mentioned by Nero were either senators of the Imperial Senate or heads of powerful departments in the imperial government. The lowest one was General Finius, who was also a captain of the Imperial Guard. Although these people held different official positions, they all had a common identity, that is, the so-called royalists.
They are the real, direct descendants of Nero!
"...Yes, Your Majesty." Nerva took a deep breath and nodded helplessly.
It’s over. I’m definitely going to get scolded.
Soon, Nerva brought these important imperial officials appointed by Nero back to the palace and gathered in Nero's study.
"Your Majesty, may I ask why you summoned us this time?" After looking at each other, Vitellius asked.
"Ah, Sir Vitellius." Nero glanced at everyone present and said, "I summoned you all here because I want to discuss something with you."
"Your Majesty, please speak." Everyone present bowed deeply and said to Nero.
"It's like this. I plan to go to the province of Egypt to inspect the specific situation there. All domestic affairs, big or small, will be left to you to decide." Nero stood up and said to everyone present.
??? Hearing Nero's words, everyone present subconsciously looked at Marcus.
What everyone means is very simple, why didn’t you tell us about such a big thing?
Marcus looked at his colleagues in confusion, then...his gaze turned to his son Nerva who was standing next to Nero.
You didn't even inform us in advance about such a big thing!
Looking at his father's angry expression, Nerva was helpless. After all... His Majesty had specifically instructed him not to tell anyone about this in advance. Do you think he dared to say it?
"Your Majesty." Seneca took a step forward, looked at Nero and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this matter..."
"Needless to say, Professor Seneca, I asked you all to come here to discuss state affairs, not to refute me." Nero waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, I wonder what state affairs Your Majesty would like to discuss with us?" Marcus asked, looking at Nero with a helpless sigh.
"It's very simple. During the time I am away from Rome, I hope you can monitor the movements of the Senate and the Guards as much as possible, and... make some decisions on my behalf. Of course, if there is something that really requires my personal approval, you can pass the content to me through your familiars, and I will reply to you after reading it."
Nero actually trusted these people. Firstly, they had long been tied to the Claudius family, and they would prosper and suffer together. For example, the families of Nerva and Vitellius had three generations of staunch "royalists". Secondly, these people were indeed very capable.
There is no need to say much about Seneca. As for Vitellius, although he always flatters Nero's horses all day long like an oriental eunuch, in fact, this Vitellius who seems to be only able to flatter has actually been a consul in previous years. If he did not have some ability, he would not have become one of the emperors in the subsequent civil strife of the four emperors.
"This..." Seneca frowned, as if he was about to say something.
"Okay, I have made up my mind. Let's not talk about anything else. Let's leave it at that. I will pack up and leave tomorrow. As for you all... do your best!"
After happily throwing the pot away, Nero decided to relax.
"How is my brother doing?" Nero left the study and returned to his room. He called a personal guard and asked while humming a tuneless tune.
"His Highness is currently in Alexandria, and seems... to have made a new friend." The guard knelt at the door and answered with his head lowered.
"Hmm, my little brother has a new friend~" Nero smiled as he packed his clothes: "Lord Akkaya, do you think my little brother would be surprised if I suddenly appeared in front of him?"
"It should be... right." The guard named Akkaya lowered his head, not daring to look up at Nero.
After all, based on Akaya's understanding of the brother and sister, His Highness would definitely be surprised by what he said, but whether he would be happy or not...that was unknown.
"Hmmm, I think too. My brother will be very surprised~" Nero said to himself while packing his clothes happily.
Tony, who was far away in the Egyptian province, had no idea at this moment that his sister had actually left her busy work and was preparing to run to the Egyptian province to have a good time.
"It's really troublesome."
Inside the prison of the Alexandria Police Station, Tony was sitting on a pile of straw bored, and pouted at Nitocris who was sitting in front of him.
PS: I really want to know if my collection can exceed 3,000 this month.
Chapter 232: Brother~Sister is here to play with you~
Tony's original idea was to finish the meal first and then lure out these second-generation officials to find an opportunity to show off and beat them up, but he didn't expect that halfway through the meal, one of the other party got up and went out, and then came back with a group of soldiers to maintain law and order, and directly took Nitocris, Tony and others to prison.
Originally, Tony could have simply thrown out his badge to prove his identity, but because Nitocris was right next to him, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Tony did nothing and could only let Nitocris be thrown in by the soldiers.
However...even if Tony didn't throw out his badge, Mary, who followed Tony, also carried her own military badge with her.
"Royal Guards?" The deputy warden of the prison was so frightened when he took the military badge handed to him by Mary from his subordinates that he almost threw it on the ground. He stood up hurriedly and looked at his subordinates, and subconsciously asked: "I remember that the sheriff and his men only captured a few women and a child? How could there be Royal Guards?"
"Deputy warden, this military badge... was given to me by one of the women." A soldier in charge of guarding the prison said with a sad face.
Women? Guards? At this time, the deputy warden finally realized that there was indeed a female unit in the Guards. It was rumored that this unit was formed by His Majesty as a personal guard. Later, because His Majesty found His Royal Highness, in order to ensure His Royal Highness's safety, His Majesty assigned some of the guards to His Royal Highness to provide protection for him.
So... could that child be the legendary prince? !
When the deputy warden thought of this possibility, he broke out in a cold sweat!
"What are you still doing here? Take me there!"
……
"Um... Master Kwild, I'm deeply sorry that the sheriff arrested you based on rumors." In the deputy warden's office, the deputy warden, who looked to be almost forty years old, lowered his head and looked at Tony respectfully.
"Alright, alright, Mr. Deputy Warden." Tony waved his hand. Now that Nitocris was right beside him, Tony couldn't say much. "You can't be blamed for this. If it has nothing to do with me, I'll take my leave first."
"Ah... Master Kwild, please take care." Upon hearing that Tony was leaving, the deputy warden hurried to the office door and opened the door for Tony in a very servile manner.
"Then... Young Master, take care."
Seeing the deputy warden's servile reaction, Tony certainly understood his true inner thoughts. After all, Tony's departure meant that he would not pursue the matter for the time being.
"I didn't expect that you have some skills." After walking out of the prison, Nitocris looked at Tony with a mocking expression and asked with a smile.
"Ahem, actually, this is because my family's business is a bit big, and I really haven't done anything wrong, so the deputy warden has to give my elders some face." Tony pointed to the hotel not far ahead and said, "Let's go, we'll go back first. It's getting dark now, and I just happened to have a few rooms in this hotel. If you don't mind, Miss Menkara can stay here temporarily. I'm a little curious about Egyptian mythology, and I just want to ask you, an Egyptian, to learn more about it."
"So, these few days, my lovely brother was with a girl, and after wandering around Alexandria for a while, he ran to Giza?" On a ship in the Mediterranean, Nero stood up subconsciously and asked after listening to the report of a personal guard with a gloomy face.
"Yes, Your Majesty, according to Mary's report, the girl's name is Menkaure and she is from Upper Egypt." Seeing that His Majesty's expression was not right, the guard did not dare to look up and could only answer with his head down.
"Mencara...La..." Unlike Tony, as a Roman emperor, Nero learned a lot of things. At least when she heard the name Mencara, she realized that it was a Latin name!
That girl is either a descendant of the former Egyptian royal family or one of the three resurrected pharaohs!
"Brother... you are such an idiot." Nero took a deep breath and said to the guard kneeling in front of him, "Send a message to Mary, tell her to be alert and protect her brother for a while, and keep a close eye on that girl named Menkara!"
"Yes, Your Majesty." The guard responded and then retreated.
"No matter whether the other party is a descendant of the royal family or one of the three pharaohs... brother, you have to be careful." Standing on the bow and looking at the Lighthouse of Alexandria looming in the distance, Nero frowned and muttered to himself.
On the other side, Tony, who had just visited the Great Pyramid of Khufu in Giza, had a general understanding of Menkara next to him.
In Menkara's words, she was once an officer of the Upper Egyptian rebels, but because she was not very obsessed with reviving Egypt, she temporarily left the Upper Egyptian rebels and wandered around. After all... Egyptians now live a relatively prosperous life, and in her opinion there is no need to launch a rebellion.
"So...what was the last pharaoh thinking? Why did he choose to give up on reviving Egypt?" That afternoon, Tony returned to the Alexandria Hotel, stroking his chin and sitting on his bed, thinking deeply.
Logically speaking, the Pharaoh was the lord of Egypt and the absolute ruler. Many traditional Egyptians regarded the Pharaoh as a god. Even many Roman emperors followed local customs and maintained the title of Pharaoh in Egypt to win over the Egyptian people.
Correspondingly, most pharaohs regarded Egypt as their own property, so the change of dynasties was fine, but in the eyes of some truly pure Egyptian pharaohs (such as Ramses II) such as the Roman Empire and even the Ptolemaic dynasty, this was not a change of dynasty, but an invasion, and these guys were not qualified to inherit the title of pharaoh.
So even though they were enemies, Tony could understand why Ra II would lead the rebels to fight against the Roman Empire.
But Nitocris should be like this too, she is also a pharaoh! Why is she not interested in reviving Egypt?
Just as he was sitting on the bed in deep thought, suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Mary came to the door and bowed slightly to Tony and said, "Master... Master, someone is looking for you outside."
"Who is it?" Tony stood up from the bed and looked at Mary, asking curiously.
Logically speaking, this Egyptian province should not know anyone else except Nitocris. I also specifically told the previous deputy warden to shut up and not reveal my identity to anyone. Who is looking for me now?
Just when Tony was wondering, a familiar figure suddenly appeared behind Mary: "Brother~Sister is here to play with you~"
PS: Some readers want to see what Ra II looked like in history, because I said before that Ra II should be the most handsome pharaoh in history. These were not my original words, but the restored pictures of Ra II are available on the Internet. I suggest you look at the one with a crown (because Ra II was warlike, so he often wore a blue crown), or the one wearing a "Nemes" (the trapezoidal thing on the head of the Sphinx). Don't look at the one with nothing on, after all, the hairstyle of Ra II when he ruled... in addition to the typical Mediterranean hairstyle when he was old, he also had a somewhat weird hairstyle, wow.
Chapter 233 Two Women...A Drama
Seeing Nero suddenly appear behind Mary, Tony almost subconsciously reached out and closed the door.
Why is Nero here?!
Although Tony was determined to marry his sister, after more than a year of observation, Tony had discovered one thing: Nero was sometimes like a normal girl. Yes, she would be jealous.
For example, when Nero went to save St. Peter for Martha, he showed obvious jealousy.
Right now, I'm having a hot fight with Nitocris. What if Nero comes over and sees me and misunderstands me? !
Oh my god, Tony already has a headache because his first love in his previous life was a yandere. What if Nero's yandere attribute is also stimulated... Do you think he can still become a heroic spirit if he commits suicide by slitting his throat now?
"What's wrong, brother? Why do I feel that you look a little unhappy?" Looking at Tony's changeable mood, Nero blinked and asked curiously.
"How is that possible~" Hearing Nero's question, Tony quickly put on an extremely hypocritical smile on his face and said to Nero with a smile.
"Tsk tsk, brother, are you having a lover behind your sister's back?" Looking at Tony's fake smile, Nero narrowed his eyes slightly, and a very dangerous arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Fuck! You're not kidding me, you're a yandere! Looking at the familiar yet strange smile on Nero's face, Tony felt his scalp tingling.
Although there was a high possibility that he was just kidding, but when he thought of the word yandere... Tony couldn't help but want to step back.
What if?! What if she's a yandere?
Who the hell dares to bet on this?
"Sister, can you please stop laughing? It's a bit scary." Tony subconsciously took a half step back and said with a sad face.
"Um, uh, then... can I come in?" Nero's face instantly switched to a warm smile and said to Tony.
"Can..." Tony lowered his head, looking dejected.
Just as Nero was about to step into the same room, a voice suddenly came from the end of the corridor, which almost scared Tony to jump up: "Brother Kwild, where are you going to play today?"
I'm going to go to Memphis, find your pyramid and tear it down for you!!!
Damn you! Why?!
Why the hell did you pop up at this critical moment!
Nito! My Pharaoh! You... Do you know how much I spent to get you? I really love you, why do you treat me like this? Although I have three Neros, but... I also have two Nitos! I just don't have five treasures! Why are you coming to cheat me now?
"Who is Kvild?" Nero asked Tony with an innocent look on his face.
"I...how would I know who's called Kwild, hahaha." Tony yelled loudly and frantically winked at Mary who was standing at the door, then moved to the door without leaving a trace, intending to close it.
