Chapter 385 The Princess Who Refuses to Marry 54
Of course, these were not enough, and Xining turned to Nakhat for help.
"Father, can Akhenaten be used by me for another half a year now? Also, the nursery is so big that we need to increase the manpower and guards." Xining was not polite and said: "All personnel will be increased by three. Times!”
Nakhat hesitated again. Now there were twenty guards, three times that would be sixty, and the prince only had fifty.
Xining said with a smile: "The queen still has fifty guards. They are of no use to the queen. Moreover, the father of these guards knows that they are not very important. They just protect the pregnant concubine for the queen, right?" Better? And it is placed in the nursery. It belongs to the queen in name. If the father wants to transfer it, he can come and get it at any time."
Nakhat listened. This arrangement was indeed a good one, so he nodded: "Okay, wait until the nursery is completed."
"Why do we have to wait for the construction to be completed and need military training!" Xining motioned to the officials to come over: "Father, please issue an order."
At that time, it was planned to put the worst guards into the queen's place, making up a total of fifty people. People who might become bodyguards, no matter how bad they are, still have some fighting ability. People can be trained and replaced, but it is true that you get them first.
Anyway, you have to give it sooner or later. Nakhat then dictated it, and after the officials wrote it down, Xining asked Duya to ask Akhenaten to follow the officials to transfer people.
"Bang, bang, bang..." The sound of various utensils being smashed came from the queen's palace.
Can the queen not be annoyed? Fifty guards are her face. Even if the quality of the guards is the worst in the palace, that is, they are divided into several groups and stand guard, they still belong to her. Now, with a transfer order, the guard was sent to the nursing home. This was undoubtedly tearing off her face and stabbing her heart.
Knowing that this matter would be difficult to handle, Akhenaten invited Ibudu to come with him.
The official came out with a deathly look on his face and looked very embarrassed to Ibudu: "Sir, why don't you come back another day..."
Ibudu leisurely said: "Your Majesty has given the order, and you just came here to make an announcement. Now that Her Royal Highness the Queen knows, please take us to get the people."
The official was stunned and understood immediately. With a wry smile, he made a gesture of invitation to the outside: "Two adults, please follow me."
Can you get people now? Akhenaten looked at Ibudu gratefully, he was still old and hot.
Fifty people gathered together urgently. After the official announced Pharaoh's transfer order, he told Akhenaten that the person was handed over to him, and then left.
When he was leading people back to the nursing home, Ibudu looked back and saw fifty people following him, which looked very majestic.
In addition to the original twenty people, there are almost seventy people. If they are well trained, they can become a force.
Ibudu thought for a while and asked softly: "The gift you prepared for Her Royal Highness?"
"Yeah!" Akhenaten nodded: "I'll give it away as soon as I get back."
Along the way, whenever he saw interesting gadgets or nice-looking native fabrics, Akhenaten would exchange them for them. Those things were not worth a lot of money. I originally thought they were kept by Akhenaten himself, so why did Princess Suritaramon take a fancy to them.
But now not only did he take a fancy to him, but he immediately sent fifty guards to him... Ibudu sighed, after all, he was old and didn't understand what these children were thinking.
Xining leaned back and listened to the news that Du Ya had inquired about.
When the queen heard that the guards were being transferred to the nursery, she was furious. But people were still taken away.
While she was angry, she heard that a wall was being built to block her garden into the new nursery. Suddenly, everything left in the palace was destroyed, and everything was smashed.
You're so angry... Xining thought for a while and gave Duya a few words. After Du Ya heard this, she couldn't stop being happy. The queen was taking a nap in her palace when she heard all kinds of noises outside, including the sounds of animals. Lions, elephants, birds...
The queen was very angry after being woken up. Coupled with what happened yesterday, her anger became even more intense. So he shouted: "It's so noisy, what's going on?"
A maid ran in from the door and sat down on her knees: "Your Majesty, the animals from the garden were brought here. Seeing that Her Majesty was sleeping, the servant did not dare to disturb her. She was just thinking about what to say to Her Majesty."
"Don't you dare to disturb?" The queen was so angry that her fingers trembled as she pointed outside: "I heard that loud sound!"
At this time, an official came in, saluted and said: "The pregnant women in the nursery need to be quiet, so all the animals have been transported. Please count them, Her Royal Highness the Queen."
Needless to say, the yard outside must be quite lively now, and it could be a zoo.
Sitting sideways, the angry queen suddenly glared, the monstrous anger in her eyes projected towards her with ferocity. If her gaze could kill, the official who was doing the work would have been stabbed with big holes in his body.
The officials had known for a long time that the queen would be unhappy with this visit, so they quickly said: "If there is nothing else, I will leave you." He immediately left and ran away faster than anyone else.
There are animals in the same yard, and most of them are in pairs when paying tribute. There are two elephants. One by one, the originally spacious yard became very crowded. Many were barking, some were walking around in the cage, and some were yelling at each other from across the cage.
The maid could only ask the queen for instructions, what to do with these animals?
The queen stared with bloodshot eyes, with nowhere to vent her anger: "What should I do, what should I do? Ask Pharaoh, and he will do whatever he says. If he doesn't know what to do, kill them all and give them blessings." More food for the harvest banquet! ”
Xining learned that Isenofre had entered the queen's palace.
Although Isenofre was demoted to a concubine, she was banned from going out at will. But the Pharaoh and the prince agreed that she could enter the palace twice a month. This time I entered the palace to discuss matters at the banquet with the queen.
It is no longer up to the queen to arrange the banquet, but the queen can still make some suggestions to make the banquet better.
It seemed that I couldn't bear it anymore. In the previous plot, the pharaoh was poisoned, and the queen and Isenofre were the ones who benefited the most, even though the mother and daughter had a falling out for power later. Amenhotep was only 15 years old and his wings were not full yet. No matter what, he could not compete with these two cunning and ruthless people. If he didn't want to be poisoned to death, he could only hide his strength and bide his time. After a few years of patience, he gradually gained real power.
Isenofre fully inherited the queen's mantle. When the queen planned to depose Isenofre and marry Amenhotep to succeed her as queen, Amenhotep "helped" her to die.
So if nothing else happens, the queen and Amenhotep will do it again this time.
This is really the best opportunity, don’t miss it if you pass by!
But after working hard for so long, Xi Ning still feels that people will be less useful when they are used. Duya can be trusted and Akhenaten can be trusted, but their abilities are limited.
Xining immediately found an opportunity to talk to the prince. After all, the prince not only has his own bodyguards, but also confidants and secret guards, who are much more powerful than himself.
The prince was shocked after hearing this, but quickly calmed down. There have been struggles in the royal family before, there are now, and there will be in the future.
Without telling the Pharaoh first, the prince secretly sent people to watch every move of the queen and Amenhotep.
After countless intensive preparations, the banquet finally arrived.
