Chapter 368 The Princess Who Refuses to Marry37
After all, he is still young and has no problem running here. Now he is eating melon without being out of breath or blushing.
Nakhat sat down, and a maid immediately handed over a handkerchief and a plate of fruit.
Nakhat wiped his sweat and looked at the fruit plate dissatisfied: "Why is there no honeydew melon?"
The maid next to me replied: "I just picked out two good honeydew melons. They are all used up today."
The prince was still eating when he felt a sharp gaze staring at him. When he looked up, he saw Nakhat looking at him. With a sinking heart, he put down the melon and wiped his mouth with a handkerchief: "If your father doesn't mind, I still have some."
Nakhat made a long voice: "Since you are so filial, then bring it over."
The maid picked up a quarter of the honeydew melon and put it to Nakhat.
Nakhat picked up the melon, took a bite, and ate it quickly. The honeydew melon was still delicious, sweet and cool.
The prince was very sad and could only pick up the remaining piece that was not finished. He chewed this piece cleanly and almost ate the rind of the melon.
At this time the queen also ran into Isenofre.
Sitting on the sedan chair and looking at her daughter, who had a blue and black face, the queen knew that Isenofre would not gain anything from this trip. Now that I have gone, I simply "do" what I have to do. As a result, he was kicked out, the matter was not done, and he was still criticized. I really hated the iron!
The queen pretended not to know anything and said leisurely: "Since you are here, come back with me and don't go back until after dinner."
"Yes, Queen Mother." Isenofre pursed his lips, and he had a lot of grievances to express. That Suritaramon relied on his father's favor and ignored her. No matter what, the queen must come up with a way to kill this little girl before she grows up.
Xining was leaning on the big soft pillow, watching Nakhat secretly competing for a piece of melon. This dad is really childish.
Just eat without asking anything. It seems that Nakhat is not stupid. If the matter was not resolved, the prince would not be able to enjoy the melons in peace here.
After finishing the melon, I ate a bunch of grapes. Nakhat then wiped his hands with a hand towel with satisfaction: "If the bread is baked, I will take it back directly, and there is no need to deliver it in the evening."
Xining asked the maid to get bread. The officials and slaves who served Pharaoh had already arrived carrying the sedan chair, so just leave it to them.
Before Nakhat left, he reminded her sincerely: "Daughter, baby, you have to be more careful, the old witch will not give up. But don't be afraid, you are my Nakhat's daughter!"
"Yes, father!" Xining knew that Nakhat would support him.
After sending the Pharaoh away, Commander Ibudu came soon and told the Pharaoh to come over in the morning and evening to train the guards here.
Commander Ibudu was the pharaoh's general who commanded the three armies. He was in his early forties. There is also a long scar on his cheek, which is as curved as a centipede. He wears a linen robe on a hot day to cover up the ugly scars scattered all over his body. His years of military career have left him with the brutality of killing. gas.
It was said that he was ordered to come here to train the guards, but in fact he was here to take charge of her.
This afternoon, Akhenaten just took a break and returned to the yard. He usually goes to school in the morning and evening. Pharaoh thought that he would not be able to do it without someone powerful, so he sent his most powerful and senior general. Don't tell me, Nakhat is really good at picking people. Just look at Commander Ibudu's disfigured face, coupled with the general's ruthless attitude, even the concubine who is not pregnant cannot fall in love with him.
With Commander Ibudu around, even the lawless Isenofle would not dare to make any mistakes. But for such a general to be sent as a guard for a pregnant woman, this is killing a chicken with a knife, but Nakhat figured it out.
Of course, Commander Ibudu knew. Although he was a little annoyed, he still saluted respectfully and explained the reason.
After hearing this, Xining immediately took Ibudu to the nursing home and called Akhenaten and all the guards on duty.
"Commander Ibudu is a veteran of two dynasties and has great military achievements. His family has been military generals for generations. His great-grandfather, grandfather, father, three brothers, and two sons all sacrificed their lives for the country and died on the battlefield. My father said to me more than once , Commander Ibudu almost died beside him several times, and the injuries on his face made him comatose for seven days and nights. He shed tears several times when he spoke. "Xining said whatever he wanted in front of everyone. .
If he hadn't seen everything on the battlefield, he wouldn't have been able to stop the little princess from praising him so much that Ibudu almost turned red. Looking at the admiring eyes of the guards in front of him, his face did not turn red in the end, but the scars on his face turned red first, and they even popped out with excitement.
Xining continued: "Commander Ibudu is an important minister in the court and has rich experience. This time my father has sent him to teach you. You must study hard. But Commander Ibudu cannot be overworked. After all, he is a commanding officer. Officers are often troubled by old wounds. You should be more considerate and take good care of me.”
Ibudu noticed something, and quickly said: "My health is okay, don't worry. There are other things in the court, and I need to lead troops to guard the border from time to time, so I'd better finish the teaching as soon as possible."
Although Pharaoh meant to stay as long as possible, how could such a shoal attract the attention of a lion like him. The Pharaoh probably also asked him to support the little princess for up to three days to teach her how to walk. They are just a group of guards, not going to fight on the front line.
"Yes, yes, yes." Xining promised: "Commander is busy with official duties, so it's our honor to be able to take the time to come. It's almost dinner time, why don't you invite Commander to have dinner in my bedroom."
I have long heard that the food here is good at the little princess. After the pregnant women came in, they all gained several pounds. She was too fat and worried that she would have difficulty in giving birth, so the little princess had to issue an order to walk around the yard several times every day as long as her body allowed it.
The prince and prince ate here every day, and even the Pharaoh only used the bread here.
Although Ibudu was moved, he politely pushed it away. The little princess asked again, but he declined politely. After being polite back and forth several times, he agreed.
Xining motioned for Akhenaten to follow him. Akhenaten usually ate with the guards now, so he followed after hearing this. I can't help but feel uneasy. His status is very embarrassing. The adopted son of the Pharaoh should sit at the upper table of Ibudu, but Ibudu is the commander. Will he be unhappy if all the princes, including him, sit at the lower table at this dinner?
After Ke Xining walked in, he asked Ibudu to sit down in the first place for the prince, and asked Akhenaten to sit next to her.
Soon the prince and the three princes came together.
Ibudu stood up and saluted, thinking about how to give up his position without losing face.
The prince already knew the reason for Ibudu's arrival, and was also thinking about how to arrange this position. It is not appropriate to let Ibudou sit at the bottom.
I heard the little princess say in a casual manner: "Commander Ibudu was ordered by his father to go to the nursing home to teach the guards. I have long heard that the commander is brave and good at fighting. I am really lucky to come here this time."
