Chapter 387: The Princess Who Refused to Marry 55

The queen was under house arrest, the crown prince and concubine were temporarily vacant, and this banquet could only be organized by the prince first.

Fortunately, it is the prince who handles it, and everything can be controlled in his hands, especially the food, which is particularly strict.

Xining took out all the precautions that the king knew to prevent poisoning. Silver cannot detect all the poison, but it can find out most of it, and ask people to refine a dozen silver needles with silver, and each dish is brought forward, poked at the door first, and then asked people to taste it.

In fact, this mouthful is nothing, many poisons in this era will not be like a crane top red, and the throat will be sealed with blood. It was only an hour after the pharaoh finished his meal that he had a poisoning reaction. If the estimation is correct, it must be a chronic poison that can corrode the stomach, which is why Nackhardt vomited blood and suffered unbearably before he died.

But it still makes people taste the food, and the purpose is to let people see that they have done a very strict job of security this time.

All the guards were on duty, constantly patrolling the cooks, even if it was flour, and after giving it to the birds and birds, they made sure that there was no problem before they began to roast.

The queen was placed under house arrest and declared to be ill, so she did not attend the banquet, and Hinin sat next to Nakhart, while the crown prince sat on the other side.

Before the feast began, several slaves dragged in coffins containing mummies brought from mass graves.

And an official who could speak well and had a loud voice began to say words like poetry, which meant to look at these mummies, don't live up to the good times in life, and eat more and be happy at today's banquet.

Xining was not accustomed to this custom at the beginning, and pulled the corpse for a walk around before eating. This is a mummy, not to mention a little scary, some viruses still exist even if the corpse is dried, and they are not afraid of being unhygienic.

It is said that rich people will do the same before eating, and getting a corpse around not only does not feel eerie, but it is a very face-saving thing, and it can also enliven the atmosphere before the meal. Belch......

After the mummy, it is in the song and dance, and all kinds of food are served by the maids. It's a bit like a flowing water buffet, and the food is delivered all the way down by the maid according to the status. The plate with the food went first to Pharaoh, then to the next table. If one circle is finished, and there is still left, then continue to walk with the maid in the hand, until three laps, and there is really no one who wants it, take it down and put it together, and give it to the slave to eat later.

There are priestesses and kabuki dancers, and although they wear very few clothes, they are easy to distinguish from the jewelry on their bodies.

Akhenaton, who sat at the bottom of the princes' table and was at the same table as Ibudu, looked sideways at the first seat. The eleventh princess can't be called a little princess now. In the past few months, Pharaoh has added four more little princesses, two of whom have died young, and the two who are still alive cannot become little princesses, because there are still several pregnant concubines who have entered the nursery to give birth, and I don't know when the birth of the princess will wait.

Princess Eleven wore a very simple red agate necklace with a bracelet of the same color on her wrist, which he had given her. Such simple jewelry, I originally thought that the princess would reward it to the maid, but I didn't expect the princess to like it.

Although Akhenaton's eyes were fixed on the singing and dancing before the feast, he secretly glanced at Princess Eleven from time to time.

And the prince was also happy, the eleventh princess tiara was given by him, and the dozen rings were worn on the tips of the hair braided into small braids, as long as they were gently swinged, the rings shook together, which looked playful and special. But this jewelry ......

The prince couldn't help but say: "The eleventh sister's jewelry is too simple, why don't I go and get a set of emerald jewelry for the eleventh sister?" "Like the queen, Isenofre, and even ordinary princesses and concubines, who are not eager to wear the most precious and dazzling jewelry, armed from head to toe.

Look at Isenofree and Turnafel at the other table next to him, even if he gave a set of jewelry for the sake of Tenafel's face, but this set of jewelry is still not as gorgeous as Isenofree.

Xining responded: "Thank you, big brother, it's because I'm weak, and I might not sit for long wearing too heavy jewelry, so it's good." ”

Nackhardt looked sideways, picked up the food and ate it as he said, "It's good, but it's special." ”

The jewels of a palace, both men and women wear no less than five catties of jewelry, and the eleventh princess is so "simple" It does seem special. But such an eleventh princess, sitting in the chief, with the pharaoh and the crown prince, no matter what she wears, her status is extremely noble.

Even Isenofre, who was born with the same princess and should have a higher status than the eleventh princess, sat on the side concubine seat, which shows how much the pharaoh favored the eleventh princess.

The demotion of the crown princess and concubine also attracted many people to discuss in private, the eleventh princess and the prince accompanied by the pharaoh, does it imply that the eleventh princess will be the crown princess in the future?

If the eleventh princess becomes the crown princess, those pregnant concubines and concubines and concubines will be blessed, everyone knows that the eleventh princess who protects the royal bloodline will be favored by the goddess Isis, and she will almost become the spokesperson of Isis in the world.

Look at Nackhardt, his face is stiff, but the corners of his mouth are slightly raised to indicate that he is in a good mood. It must be like this!

Xi Ning didn't have so much time to think about everyone's thoughts, she and the crown prince guarded the pharaoh in order to prevent someone from poisoning the pharaoh.

Where can poison be used, where, where? Looking at the flowery palace banquet, Xining couldn't swallow, and she didn't know what she stuffed into her mouth, and ate it like chewing wax.

Now all raw materials are given to animals one day in advance without problems, and after the food is ready, it is repeatedly checked with silver needles. It is possible for everyone to eat all the food, or the entire 300-odd people attending the banquet will be poisoned?

A plate of roast meat came up, and Nackhat picked the fattest one.

Xining found that she had added a piece of meat to her plate, which the prince had given her.

The prince knew what she was worried about, and whispered, "Don't worry about anything, with me!" ”

Hiinin hurriedly looked at Nakhart, fearing that Pharaoh would hear. At this time, Nackhardt was eating wine while watching the juggling performed in front of him. Ignorant of the possible danger, for him, the past few months have been too happy, not counting the four sons who have grown up, and the four sons who have grown up are gradually showing their respective abilities, and the four sons are still very united, how can he be unhappy?

The prince picked up the knife next to him and helped her cut the meat into small strips.

She smiled, picked it up, and ate it. I couldn't help but be moved, but of course this move didn't come from her. The crown prince was benevolent, grew up in the bloody wind in the palace, and had long been disgusted with the struggle between these relatives. And the guys who are involved in their future queen are all their younger brothers. His kindness and hesitation have kept his master in prison again and again. It is precisely this kind of mercy that in the end, the prince did not ask for the life of the second prince in the bitter entanglement, but was placed under house arrest.

Xining sighed slightly, after being in contact for nearly a year, the princes are actually good children, serving the master, and playing a good hand of cards?

At this time, someone is paying tribute again!
