Chapter 193: Sisters

Davos soon had Publius sign a treaty of alliance with the Cristaums, and the Dionian army quickly conquered the eastern side of Rome and began to target the Latin states to the south.

…………………………………

"Master, you put on this ...... Lingerie, it's really beautiful! Even Aphrodite will be jealous of you! Aganice's personal slave couldn't help but praise.

"Don't talk nonsense, how can I compare to Eros!" Agnes said this, but her tone was not harsh, she turned around and asked softly, "Is it really good-looking?" ”

"It is said that Aphrodite's chest strap is full of temptation, but I think that this set of underwear with your beautiful body makes even me as a woman can't help but be attracted to it, even ...... Envy, if His Majesty Davers sees it, he will definitely be deeply fascinated by you, master! The slave girl sighed obsessively.

Agnes didn't speak, but looked at the bronze mirror that was a man high, one hand touched the white underwear on her chest, the other hand fiddled with the pose, she had entered the age of 40 years old, she had already felt the passing of years from the beginning of the sagging skin, Christoya sent this set of clothes that she called "underwear", wearing on her body, not only made her feel comfortable, but also showed her young slender figure, and also added a mysterious beauty, so that Agnes looked at the mirror, self-intoxicated......

It took a long time for her to get dressed again, and she took the slave girl downstairs to the hall.

Kristoya, who was sitting in the hall and was discussing matters with the court governor RibazΓ³, saw her and immediately told everyone else to withdraw.

When she was the only one left in the hall, Christoya asked, "Sister Egnes, are you dressed?" How does it feel?! There was a hint of eagerness in his tone.

"It's ...... Very good! I love it! Agnes replied a little shyly.

"If you think it's good, the women of Dionya will think it's even better!" Christoya clapped her hands excitedly, "Tomorrow, I will ask Ribazo to send slaves to build a garment workshop, and then buy a dozen slave girls who can cut and start making this kind of underwear, and give them to the senator's wives first, so that they can help me promote ......"

Christoya said excitedly, Agnes was not very interested in these, and she asked softly, "Sister, you seem to have said that this underwear was designed by His Majesty?" ”

"Yes, I originally wanted His Majesty to give me some ideas to make up for the losses incurred by the bank last year when it did its best to help the people through the drought, who knew that he would give me such an idea!" A smile appeared on Christoya's face, and then she remembered something, and her expression became serious again, and she said, "Usually he is so busy with government affairs, who knew that he would be ...... to us So much attention there! ”

Speaking of this, Christoya bit her teeth, took Egnes's hand, and said intimately, "Sister, you and I sisters must keep an eye on Your Majesty, and we must not let him go outside to steal fish!" ”

"Probably...... It may be that Hades gave His Majesty a revelation......" Agnes whispered a defense to Davers.

"Hades is not a god who likes to pay attention to this aspect...... Kristooa also whispered a sentence to the protector of the kingdom, and then said in a straight voice, "Sister, we are all starting to get old, we must learn to dress ourselves better, so that Your Majesty's eyes can always attract us!" ”

Agnes nodded lightly and squeezed Christoya's hand tightly, two women of similar age and different hobbies have lived together for nearly 20 years, and have tacitly established an intimate relationship that is not a sister, but a sister.

"Sister, don't always wear that white set, Your Majesty will get tired of seeing it for a long time, and in two days I will send you a few sets of other colors of decorated ......underwear," Christoya suggested.

"Uh-huh......," Agnes replied shyly.

"Mother, we're back!" At this moment, a crisp shout came from outside the door, and then two pretty girls, one tall and one short, walked into the hall.

"Mother Agnes is there, too!" The tall girl then shouted again.

The short girl saluted respectfully in turn, "Mother!" Mother Christoia! ”

"Eunice, how do you say hello to your elders, haven't you learned!" Christoya sat down and said with a straight face.

"Okay...... Eunice pouted, saluting the two mothers helplessly, and then glaring at Avia, who was snickering, to show her displeasure.

"Why did you come back so early today?!" Christoya asked a little sternly.

"Uh...... This afternoon was teaching dance, I came to menstruation, the teacher gave me a holiday, I thought it was boring to go home alone, so I helped Avia also ask for leave. Eunice said boldly.

"It's not enough for you to be lazy alone, you have to pull your sister!" Christoya's face sank.

"I ...... I'm a little uncomfortable too, sister-" Avia stammered and was about to defend when Eunice patted her "Don't speak." ”

Christoya's apricot eyes widened, and Agnes on the side hurriedly said, "Since you are not feeling well, let's go and rest quickly." ”

The two girls looked at Christoya with joy on their faces.

Christoya's face was still gloomy, "Forgive you two this time, and if you leave early like this next time, you will be punished!" ”

"Got it!" The two responded in unison, turned around and smiled at each other, and walked out briskly.

Walking to the door, Eunice turned her head and asked, "Mother, is there any news of my father and brother today?" ”

"Yes! This morning the messenger brought a letter from your father, saying that the Roman army had been broken up, and that your eldest brother and brother Adoris had returned to Rome safely for the triumphal ...... in Rome," said Christoia.

"Triumphal ceremony in Rome?!" Eunice snorted lightly, and then said in annoyance, "I really want to see it!" ”

"When will my father and brother come back?" Avia interjected.

"Kid, this ...... The letter didn't say anything. Christoya smiled and said, "However, since our army has taken Rome and defeated theirs, the day of final victory should not be far off, and then your father and they will return!" ”

Avia smiled happily.

"Let's go, Avia, it's time for us to go back to the bedroom and rest." Eunice winked at her.

The two girls walked out of the hall and could faintly hear them whispering, "Let's go and get Briantes' dog out in a moment, and then lead my horse out, you hold your kitten, and then we'll play outside the yard." ”

"Brother Briantes will be angry if he finds out!"

"With me, he wouldn't dare!"

……

Christoya, who was in the hall, suddenly sighed.

Seeing this, Agnes hurriedly persuaded her, "Sister, don't be too strict with the children, and let them relax once in a while." ”

"I'm not bothered by this." Christoya looked out the door, shook her head and said, "In a few months, Eunice will be 14 years old, she is almost an adult, and she still plays bad ...... like this"

"According to our Dionian law, Eunice is two years away from reaching adulthood, sister, you are too early to worry. Also, I think it's a good thing that Eunice has a strong personality and won't be bullied in the future, but it's Avia who worries me a little. Agnes relieved.

In most of the city-states of Greece, a woman can talk about marriage at the age of 14, but in the Kingdom of Dionia, at the strong request of King Davers, and with the support of medical authorities such as Herps, the Senate passed the law that "a woman is considered an adult at the age of 16, and she must not marry before that" (Originally, Davers wanted to set the age of a woman's adulthood at 18 years old, but in this era, because of the harsh environment and backward medicine, the average age of the Greeks was not high, and women were often precocious, If you wait until the age of eighteen to get married, the cost of raising them is too high, and it is not conducive to the growth of the Dionian population, so a compromise is made. οΌ‰

"You don't have to worry about this, who of our children dares to bully!" Christoya raised her eyebrows slightly, turned her head to look at Agnes, and said softly, "This morning, Andrea came over and talked about her eldest son, Eumatseus, and asked ......about Eunice, intentionally or unintentionally."

"He's trying to propose to her son?!" Agnes was shocked, although she rarely interacted with outsiders, but she had grown up in a powerful family in Lijim, and knew a little about these things.

"If it was in another Greek city-state, and Eunice was of marriage, Andrea wanted to say hello to me in advance, so I didn't give her a reply as if I didn't know. I guess it won't be long before more people mention this to me......" Christoya shrugged helplessly.

"Sister, you don't have to worry too much, Your Majesty has said several times, 'Eunice's marriage is up to them, and they can marry whoever they want to marry.' Agnes reassured.

Both she and Christonia were deeply touched by the traditional patriarchal marriage in Greece, when Christoya was given to the Persian prince Cyrus the Younger as a concubine, and Agnes was sent to Turiyi, both by their father's word, and they were not consulted at all, but fortunately the final outcome was good. Agnes, of course, didn't want the children to follow their path, and Davers's decision was naturally welcomed by her.

"Sister, it's not that simple." Christoya shook her head and said with some annoyance, "Eunice is young, how can she tell if the man she likes is good or bad, and we have to check for her!" Besides, if she really wants to marry an ordinary commoner, what will the senators of Dionya and the wives of the ministers think? What will their children think? I'm afraid that this ordinary son-in-law will be under a lot of pressure in the kingdom in the future, so will he still be good to Eunice? …… All these things have to be considered! ”
