From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Memphis...

In the early morning, the city was still filled with mist from the great river, and figures in twos and threes appeared on the streets, walking slowly towards the royal treasurer.

The big river is close to flooding, and the royal treasurer is at the busiest time of the year.The clerk in the treasury, whether it is a senior person from the noble family, or a coincidence about a year ago.

The newcomers who entered the treasurer job because of a math competition all lived a very busy life of going out early and returning late.

Iago, the chief treasurer of the royal family, was standing in front of the treasurer's door, checking whether the clerks who entered the treasury were entrained.

"Don't blame me, it's just an order from Pharaoh himself—"

Iago looked at the sleep-deprived clerks with dark circles under their eyes and explained in a low voice.

What he wants to check now is whether the clerks have brought inflammable items, clear oil, flint, firearms, etc. into the treasurer.

What he had to check at night was whether the clerks had brought the transcribed papyrus, parchment, etc. out of the treasurer.

It took time for Iago to go through everyone, so the clerks had to come earlier and leave later, and there was a lot of complaints.

Many clerks in the treasurer are old people who have worked with Iago for many years, and they all said, "You know us, even if it is the king's order, you don't need to be so harsh—"

Iago explained with a smile: "It's not harsh, it's responsible..."

Ever since the first princess cleaned up the royal treasury and ordered the clerks who had embezzled property over the years to return the embezzled wealth, the clerk has really become a drudgery with less money and more work and overtime, and now it is a busy season However, Pharaoh and Iago also added procedures for this ordinary work and end work for no reason. It is strange that the clerks have no complaints.

But they took a look at the royal guards on duty nearby, and most of them put away their complaints, and stood obediently in the line, waiting for their turn.

In the line stood Tabac, the attendant of the former First Princess Elyse.

After the river flooded last year, Tabak and several other princess attendants had a chance encounter and became members of the treasurer's clerk.

They're in luck.After the first princess left Memphis, the pharaoh returned to power, but unexpectedly did not replace Tabak and others, but acquiesced in this change—the treasurer originally controlled by the noble children mixed in with ordinary people of humble background .

After that, Tabak and others received the guidance of the acting priest Sasha, and they made progress in dealing with people, and gradually understood the way of survival in the treasurer.

When Pharaoh returned to Memphis from Thebes two months ago, he immediately summoned Iago to question him. According to Iago's report, Pharaoh also questioned Tabak and others.According to Iago, the pharaoh had tried to eradicate them all.

However, Iago mentioned to Pharaoh that the work was heavy during the flooding season of the river, and the royal treasurer was short of manpower. He pleaded for Tabac and others in every possible way. Delos hesitated for a long time, and finally did not mention the matter of expulsion. .

Tabac and the others have been in the treasurer for nearly a year, and they have begun to get familiar with these officialdoms. Of course, they understand that there is water in what Iago said, and they are just trying to sell to the people behind them.

Not surprisingly, Iago's best seller was the first princess who had left them here.

At this moment, Tabac was head-to-head with a female clerk named Minnie, whispering.

This Mei Ni is the only female staff member in the royal treasurer. She was originally a female slave in the family of the great priest.

However, most of the clerks were defeated in the counting competition led by Elyse.Therefore, he won the opportunity to work as a treasurer.

Now Tabac and Minnie are discussing in a low voice, but it has nothing to do with Iago's inspection, but a dream that Tabac has repeatedly had recently.

"You said, every night I dream of someone chanting the title of God Amon in my ear. What do you think is going on?"

Mei Ni quickly stopped him in a low voice: "Be careful!"

She looked around vigilantly, and said, "Don't you know that the royal guards of Memphis are patrolling around the city, and people are not allowed to discuss the god Amon, let alone his title, as long as someone mentions his name, it is possible He will be arrested by the royal guards and locked in a dark cell under the palace."

This situation in Memphis began when the pharaoh had just returned from Thebes.

At the time people didn't know what was going on.But soon there were rumors that the pharaoh suffered a great humiliation in Thebes, was publicly humiliated by his first princess Elyse, and abandoned all the royal guards, and fled back to Memphis alone.

And Alixi has another identity-the priest of the god Amon.

Therefore, the Pharaoh forbade the city of Memphis to talk about the god Amon, and also forbade people to talk about the first princess, as if she and the princess she gave birth to did not exist at all. The great priest Dahor never had such a daughter, and the great general Soran never had such a daughter. Having such a sister...

Tabak nodded, and lowered his voice by [-]% again: "So I only dare to tell you..."

Mei Ni nodded, and when she saw that there was no abnormality around her, she asked Tabak, "What else did you dream about?"

Both Tabac and Minnie were promoted by Erich from the living blood bar prepared for her by the wife of the great priest, and taught them survival skills, and helped them gain a firm foothold in the royal treasurer.

In the city of Memphis, it might be difficult to find two people who are more loyal to Elyse than Tabac and Minnie.

Tabak responded immediately: "The man in the dream told me that as long as I am willing to exchange names with the gods and sign a contract, I can become Asut and become the favored person of God Amon, just like the princess did at the beginning."

Mei Ni hummed thoughtfully, and asked after a while: "You said you memorized the complete title of God Amon?"

Tabac nodded, and then repeated the god's title he wrote down in his dream to Minnie.

At this time, the two had already lined up in front of Iago, and Iago happened to be smiling obsequiously at the two of them.

That night, the clerks of the royal treasury were busy until late at night, and then they were inspected by Iago one by one, and they were allowed to leave after making sure that they did not carry any items in the treasury.

Mei Ni returned to her residence, quickly locked the door, sat in the bedroom by herself, looked at a small oil lamp on the low table in front of her, and meditated for a long time.

She finally made up her mind, clasped her hands, interlocked her fingers, held them up in front of her chest, and recited devoutly: "The watcher of all destiny, the symbol of light and order, the guardian of life and dignity, the guardian of time, the great God Amon, I, an ordinary person in Memphis, a weak person saved by Princess Elyse, pray to you, I am willing to follow you and become your faithful favor—”

As soon as she finished speaking, the small oil lamp in front of her changed instantly.The wick of the oil lamp jumped up with a whistling sound, and the wick was no longer that orange-red speckle. It emitted pure light into the small and dark room.

Minnie was extremely excited, she knelt on her knees, supported her body, and said loudly: "The great god, I, Minnie, am willing to enter into a sacred contract with you to exchange names, and I will be driven by you for the rest of my life..."

She almost shouted that I believe you.

At this time, a rather solemn female voice came from my mind: "Very good!"

Mei Ni: ...Why does this sound like the first princess?

She must have missed the first princess too much, and when she heard a female voice, she thought it was Erich.

Mei Ni quickly drove this slightly profane thought out of her mind, and then began to pray devoutly.

As she prayed, Minnie heard a voice echoing in her mind: "Mini, Minnie..."

With this voice, she began to recall the past involuntarily.

She remembered the suffering she suffered as a child and witnessed her relatives dying of poverty and disease one by one. She remembered that she was chosen as the card to continue the life of Princess Elyse and was forced to be separated from the only remaining relatives. Then she was taught to obey at all times, dedicating her humble, insignificant life to the princess.

When the torrential river swept towards the Saqqara Palace with floods, she knew very well that her life was about to come to an end.But this miraculously became a turning point in her life...

"Mei Ni, congratulations, you have become the Blessed One of God Amon."

The female voice in my mind sounded again.

At this moment, Mei Ni had already burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably.

She knew very well that she was willing to become the favored person of God Amon just to follow Erich.

To pray to a god unknown in Lower Egypt, and to give one's name, was a dangerous thing in itself.Because if he encounters an evil god like Asin, he will be completely finished.

The other party seemed to be very patient, and he spoke after a while, asking in Mei Ni's mind: "Mei Ni, it has been a few days since you heard the name of God Amon in your dream, what prompted you to finally make a decision?" Decided to become a follower of the gods?"

When Mei Ni was asked by the other party, she was startled, and suddenly she answered in her heart very coyly: "I heard the name of a great god in a dream before, but I forgot it when I woke up."

People are different. Some people have dreams and forget them when they wake up.There are also some people who can consolidate their memories when they first wake up, and most of them can remember what they saw and heard in their dreams.

"I asked Tabac until daytime today..."

In a word, she copied Tabak's homework.

The other party has not been able to respond, and seems to be choked by Minnie's answer.

Thebes, late at night.

After hearing someone chanting the honorable name of God Amon, Erich immediately got up, trying to establish a connection with the chanter.

This is the first time she has tried to develop the favored person of God Amon after she became the priest of God.So I was extra cautious, and my heart was quite excited.

In order to be able to observe the other party's reaction, she also used the Eye of Horus to assist her, and the chosen direction was naturally the location of the potential favored one who was reciting the name of God Amon.

The next moment, her spirit body immediately emerged from the wall of Minnie's hut.

It turned out that Mei Ni was the first one who could make up her mind to become the Favored One of Amon.

Erich immediately recalled how cool this girl was when she won the math competition in the royal treasurer.

Immediately, Mei Ni expressed her desire to become the God-favored of Amon, and Erich immediately felt that her spirit body was beginning to establish a spiritual connection with Mei Ni.

She needs to imprint a spiritual brand on this girl when the other party gives her name and signs a contract. From then on, Mei Ni will enter the ranks of Asut and become a follower of God Amon.

"Minnie, Minnie..."

Alicia began to try to call the other party's name.

At this moment, the spiritual connection between the two parties was successfully established, and Alicia instantly felt a surge of overwhelming memories: poverty, disease, humiliation, and despair... Sensing these memories, Alicia's eyes were slightly moist for a while.

After all, she didn't know Minnie well, and she didn't know that this young girl with quick thinking and quick learning was carrying such painful memories.

Then she sensed redemption and saw determination... She completely understood why Mei Ni could make up her mind so quickly to become Amon's favorite.

So Erich successfully endowed Minnie with a spiritual brand.At the same time, on the inside of Minnie's right arm, a wheel with eight spokes began to appear: the Wheel of Fortune.

In addition to Erich, God Amon finally has another favored person.

After all this was done, Ellie hoped that Minnie, who had gradually calmed down, started her first attempt.

"congratulations……"

She tried to talk to Minnie, and carefully observed whether the other party could see her spirit body.

However, seeing the spirit body seems to be only related to its own characteristics, and it cannot be changed by becoming Asut.Erich was right across from Minnie, but she didn't notice it.

But Mei Ni could completely hear Ai Lixi's voice, and the two could talk without hindrance, and finally made Ai Lixi understand why she failed to get an immediate response when she relayed the name of God Amon through her dreams——Mei Ni's dreams are always forgotten when she wakes up, and she has never been able to remember them.

After the communication with Mei Ni was over, Erich's spirit body logged out of the Eye of Horus, returned to her own residence in Thebes, and began to recall in detail the whole process of this offline development and the areas that might be worth improving.

Minnie took this step bravely and gave Erich a lot of hope-it seems that she still has a pretty good mass base in Lower Egypt.

Just when Alixi finished everything and was about to go to rest, an illusory and distant voice suddenly sounded in her ear, which gradually became clear——

It was the voice of a young man, chanting the honorable name of God Amon devoutly and firmly: "The great God Amon, I, Tabak, am willing to follow you from now on and become your pious favored one..."
