Chapter 10 Succession in Crisis
Including Rases' aunt, the princess of the kingdom, and the priest who serves Neve, the goddess of life.
All of this, Rassis just watched coldly. Although the saints of all temples were called chaste jealous women who kept the chastity of God, some of the messy and filthy things were heard of by the poor people in the lowest class of the kingdom. Not to mention people like Rassis!
However, Lassis just watched coldly.
In another world, there are allusions. During the reign of Emperor Shunzong of Tang, Wang Shuwen once advised Shunzong, who was the crown prince at that time. What is the crown prince and where is the emperor?
That's the reason. As the heir, this status is always a bit embarrassing.
Even Rassis was just accumulating his own strength in secret. At least, most of the guards in the entire palace and the army in the royal city began to be loyal to Rassis in private.
With the support of the army, the result of Rassis' succession was no longer shaken.
This is enough. As long as you calm down and don’t take the initiative to play the cards, no one can shake Rassis’s position.
It was another dusk, and Rases stood on the high balcony, looking at the clouds in the distance. His heart sank slightly, and a military aura was destroyed under the sunset.
Looking closely, it is our own military spirit.
Several fast horses ran to the city from afar, bringing a smoky yellow sand. They ran quickly, but after entering the city, they were blocked by the crowded streets. After a long time, they arrived before the palace.
"Your Highness, it's not good. We're defeated! The Pharaoh was seriously injured..." The messenger heard bad news.
After hearing this, Lassis looked at the streets of Thebes and slowly had an indisputable idea. This city was built too narrow and chaotic!
"When you came back, did you not tell anyone about this news?" Rases asked calmly. His icy eyes were fixed on the messenger.
The messenger immediately felt that his whole body was frozen and his huge fear hit him. It seemed that if one answered badly, his life would probably be lost!
"No, not a single person." The messenger shook his head desperately: "Others know that I am delivering military messages, but no one dares to stop me!"
"That's good, I'll give you five gold coins. Let's take a good rest in my palace first, and then go back!" said Rases.
"No need..." Halfway through the refusal, the messenger saw Rassis's cold gaze and quickly reacted. He forced a smile: "Yes. I happened to be tired. Several horses ran to death along the way, and were about to rest..."
In this way, Rassis smiled with satisfaction. The messenger was still smart.
However, even the Pharaoh was seriously injured in this great defeat. The news must be hidden.
Fortunately, Rassis didn't think that he could hide for too long, and in just a few hours, it would be enough. It was enough for him to complete all the arrangements!
He quickly called the kingdom's guard captain over, and then the king's guardian general.
Before the next day, the news of Pharaoh's defeat in the second battle between the enemy began to spread in Thebes.
A few days later, the Pharaoh was sent back to Thebes by the army, but only spent more than ten days on the hospital bed.
The news came, which caused the entire kingdom to fall into great turmoil. Every household closed its doors and was afraid of the enemy's attack. It also made this prosperous city quiet like a ghost domain for a moment.
However, no one in the palace noticed this and fell into a tense situation!
"Why don't you let me in? I am the sister of Pharaoh. The priest who serves Goddess Neve." Princess Des shouted angrily.
Beside her was Moses, and there were priests from several other temples.
However, the soldiers who were often very afraid of these priests who served the gods were very tough today: "This is the order of the Pharaoh. He was injured and needed to rest and did not want to be disturbed!"
"Nonsense, my brother, he has been in a coma since he came back. When did he give the order?" Anger made Dith's voice even sharper: "I know you, the boy from the Andyjeb family. Do you dare to stop me? Aren't you afraid that your father will beat you up when he goes back?"
All those who can protect the royal palace are either noble children or innocent families. This is the same in any world!
Andyev heard this, but was not moved at all: "My family has never heard of the orders of the Pharaoh, and of course the orders of Prince Rases!"
After hearing this, Des suddenly became unbearable and became furious: "Moser is my son, and he is also a prince!"
"Maybe Goddess Nef will know," Andyev said coldly.
This was obviously ironic, and Di S was screaming in anger. The temple guards following him were all going to take action. However, the palace guards were not vague at all and came from all around.
There are hundreds of armored guards, well-equipped, and silence brings tremendous pressure.
This made the temple guards who were just relying on him feel Alexander!
"What's the noise?" An old voice sounded from the palace: "Come in, the Pharaoh has promised you to come in!"
This is the voice of the old prime minister Dil, the minister who assisted the three generations of pharaohs, had great prestige in the kingdom.
"My brother has woken up!" Di S cried happily.
"No, it's the new Pharaoh. Lasith! God La is above, and the former Pharaoh has returned to the kingdom of the sun!" another voice said.
With this sound, the palace slowly opened. Prime Minister Dil and the high priest of God La, he walked out with the support of Rashis. Behind them, the generals of the royal army and several other generals of the kingdom.
At this time, Rassis had already changed into the pharaoh's outfit, with a red and white crown, holding the Heka golden rod representing the power of the pharaoh in his hand.
Seeing this scene, all the guards bowed down in awe and cheered: "The Pharaoh protected by God..."
When I saw such a person, many people who followed him to the palace were timid and quietly knelt down.
"Come in. My aunt, my brother." Rassis smiled and said, "I allow you to share my glory and witness my ascendance to the throne!"
As he spoke, he walked out of the palace gate with the cheers. With the loud drums, it spread throughout the city. So people saw that the new Pharaoh ascended the throne.
There was an indescribable envy and jealousy in Moses's eyes, but it was hidden very well.
He knew clearly that he could not ascend the throne. But perhaps, if he could get favor, he could become the new prime minister of the kingdom.
Di Si's face was complicated. At this moment, he could only lower his head.
"The king, I will never change my father's way for three years. In order to commemorate my father, the great ex-Pharaoh. Therefore, I will not move all the orders he left behind in three years!"
The new pharaoh, who had just grown this fluff on his young mouth, announced his first order after taking office.
Originally, although he ascended the throne of Pharaoh, Rassis's fortune had begun to transform into cyan, light cyan, and there was unstable distraction. However, as Rassis's words came out, this somewhat scattered fortune immediately stabilized.
In the old eyes of Prime Minister Dier, an indescribable look appeared: "Our new pharaoh has wisdom that is incomparable to his age!"
The high priest of God La also nodded, and it was difficult for young people to restrain their flaunt.
Not to mention. This is the position of inheriting the king of a country. Most people want to issue orders immediately to show their power and show their power to the world.
But it is too rare to be like Lassis! Being able to restrain one's own power. Knowing when to use one's own power is the sign of a king's maturity.
But the others didn't think so much. As the order was issued, officials at all levels in the kingdom breathed a sigh of relief.
There is nothing else, the new official takes office for three fires. Although this sentence does not exist in this world, this kind of thing is common.
There is another saying that one day the emperor and another day the ministers, and I don’t know how many officials are afraid that the new pharaoh will move his position as soon as he comes to power.
And with a three-year buffer period, it’s much better. At least I can find a way to move closer to the new pharaoh.
In short, with a simple order from the new pharaoh, the entire kingdom quickly settled, and the smooth handover was successful, causing almost no major turmoil.
At this time, Rassis felt more and more the wisdom of his ancestors in another world.
I have not changed my father's way for three years. This simple sentence contains countless political wisdom. But it is not just for the sake of filial piety...
Luck is the power of reality and the display of the human heart. The foundation of the rule of the kingdom is these officials. This declaration stabilizes the hearts of the officials, so Rathis will immediately become mostly stable.
However, although the situation within the kingdom has settled, foreign enemies will not let Rases go so easily.
There was also a huge shadow, with the red air of swords and weapons, and it was pressed over. It was as heavy as a mountain, making Lasis's royal aura unstable and destructive.
It seems that the military pressure of the Hittites is much greater than what they imagined!
With the arrival of Hittite messengers, the entire Pharaoh's palace became nervous.
More than a dozen Hittite messengers, wearing scimitars and armor, walked into the Pharaoh's palace in full arms.
In front of many pharaohs' ministers, he questioned carelessly: "The respectful Pharaoh who ruled the up and down the Nilo River, your father was defeated by us. Now our powerful army is already on your border.
But our kind king said, "Your father has just died, and although we are enemies, we are embarrassed to take advantage of your funeral opportunity to attack you."
Therefore, our king ordered us to come. As long as you ced the city of Am to us, our king will agree to withdraw our troops!"
As soon as these words were said, all the ministers of the entire kingdom were angry. The city of Am can be regarded as the most important city in the entire kingdom, besides the capital Thebes.
If Thebes is close to the river, then Am City is a major transportation route on land.
Losing Am City is equivalent to cutting off the passage of many tribes of Afiriga. The entire kingdom is equivalent to losing one-third of its territory.
Every minister showed an insulted look. These Hittites said it nicely, and they were just taking advantage of the situation.
Even Rassis, who had been mentally prepared, couldn't help but feel a little angry.
However, he quickly endured it. At this time, his family had just ascended the throne, and it was definitely not a good opportunity to turn against the Hittites.
This reminds of the allusion from another world, during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, a generation of wise rulers, Chai Rong, the Later Zhou Dynasty, just as soon as he ascended the throne, launched a war with the Northern Han Dynasty.
As a result, the old ministers and generals did not use much life in this battle. Chai Rong almost lost his troops and died. After learning from his mistakes, Chai Rong knew that his family was reckless and should not have promoted the war when he had just ascended the throne and had not yet won the hearts of the people.
Later, Chai Rong trained the Imperial Army and shocked the Jiedu governors from all over the country and the Imperial Army's generals. He fought south and north, which laid the foundation for the later unification of the world.
At this time, Rassis had only just a few days since he ascended the throne. Although most generals of the kingdom admitted that he was a pharaoh, they would never have much awe of him.
If you want to command like an arm, you can only say a dream. But if you can’t command effectively, if you can win the battle, you can only rely on luck!
Therefore, Rassis suppressed his anger and said with a smile: "Go back and thank you for the kindness of King Sheitia for me. He is a true king with noble character. He did not take advantage of the situation.
However, Am City is one of the most important cities in our Kingdom of Nelo. I just ascended the throne and had no prestige. Even if I wanted to give the city to the Hittite king, I would not be able to make a decision.
Let me do this, I have a younger brother. Let my younger brother take all the treasures in my palace to meet the Hittite king. Ask for his forgiveness!”
"And all the messengers, it turns out that I have worked hard. Let's go down and have a rest first. I will hold a grand banquet to entertain you in the evening!"
As he said that, a few beautiful maids walked out from behind. He held a tray in his hands, and piles of gold, silver and jewelry were placed on it.
Even these Hittite messengers were all famous warriors. They dared to be so arrogant in the Pharaoh's palace, and they were not afraid of being dragged out and killed.
However, they were all fascinated by these beauties and golden glow. They were also a little flattered at Lasis' kind and friendly attitude.
So, I was so dizzy that I was dragged down by these beauties. (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
