From Concubine to Pharaoh [Transmigration Book]

Memphis...

Soran hummed a slang tune he heard from nowhere, and walked comfortably and comfortably on the empty streets in the early morning.

He was dressed very casually, just like the most common Lower Egyptian commoner. No one could have guessed that he was the only son of a high-ranking priest and a mad general who once dominated the battlefield.

But occasionally there will be Memphis people who get up early and rush on the road. After passing by Solan, they will look back at his back in surprise, marveling at the outstanding appearance of this young man-such a handsome and handsome appearance, even Even in the royal capital, it is rare.

Solan raised his eyebrows, with a frivolous smile on his lips, as if he enjoyed the gaze and amazement.

But there was always a sense of coldness and cynicism in his eyes, as if he had put all his future in the hands of fate, and he didn't care much about the outcome——

Just let him live by his nature once.

Solan's current destination is the Temple of Osiris.

This is the first mission he received from the god Amon who just followed last night, and he went there to understand the state of the god Osiris.

"The state of God?"

Looking at the closed gate of the Temple of Osiris in the distance, Soran thought to himself: It is indeed a task entrusted by the gods - after all, only gods can pay so much attention to the state of other gods.

Now the river is about to flood, and the temple of Osiris is not yet ready for the harvest festival.

But Solan had heard something important the other day—that the sweet spring in the temple of Osiris had dried up.

The depletion of well water soon caused panic throughout the city.After all, the god Osiris is not only the god of the underworld, but also holds the power of harvest.

But Pharaoh quickly sent people to spread the word in the city of Memphis, saying that it is common for wells to dry up before the river floods, and it will naturally recover when the harvest festival comes.

"But God Amon obviously doesn't believe Pharaoh's words."

Solan stretched out his hand and pushed the gate of the temple, recalling in his mind what he had seen and heard that day in the Temple of Amun in Thebes—the god he followed was naturally hostile to Pharaoh.

And now he is representing God Amon to investigate the state of God Osiris.

For a moment, Solan felt a sense of pride, but in a moment it turned into irony.

The gate of the temple is locked.Solan knocked for a long time, but did not see the priest who originally served in the temple come out to answer the door.

Solan rolled his eyes, turned around, and walked along the wall to the backyard of the temple.There was a low wall there, and Solan was there. Seeing no one around, he put his hands on the wall, easily and effortlessly climbed over the top of the wall, and landed lightly inside the wall.

Suddenly, a soft reprimand sounded in my mind: "God's favored person should not approach danger lightly."

This was the voice representing God Amon, but Soran always felt that his tone and tone were a bit like his sister Erich, although the voice line was somewhat different.

When Solan accepted this task, the other party emphasized: You only need to understand the state of the gods by insinuating, it is best to find the priests of the temple, ask them face to face, and listen to their dictation.

Don't enter the temple easily, let alone try to enter the temple, it may be dangerous for Asuth, who is a favored person.

Solan chuckled, although he knew that the voice represented the will of the gods, but he always felt that he was talking to his younger sister—the two brothers and sisters, idiots against idiots, who is better than the other?

With both feet on the ground, Solan looked around vigilantly.

There was silence in the temple.

As usual, the priests of the temple are already cleaning the temple at this time, and are going to open the temple door later to welcome believers to come to pray and worship.

But today, there is silence in the Temple of Osiris. It is located in front of the Temple of Osiris behind a colonnade, and even blocked the entrance with a hemp rope, as if to prevent rash people from entering the temple.

Solan was indeed an unbelievers. He first took a look at the sweet water well in the courtyard that had indeed dried up, then raised his head and walked along the colonnade to the Temple of Osiris...

Suddenly, the voice representing the gods in his mind reminded: "Danger! Run!"

Solan also felt a strong premonition of danger at this time.Just like when he suddenly had a premonition that the army was ambushing on the battlefield.

Solan was not afraid of ambushes, but the premonition of danger he felt at this moment was mixed with a lot of fear, which hit him like a tide, and when the fear reached its extreme, it was like sharp needles, poking his scalp wantonly His brain formed a sharp pain.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately turned around and ran along the way he came from, not daring to recall the image he glimpsed just now out of the corner of his eyes, it might just be a shadow left by the other party under the rising sun.But Solan didn't dare to think about it, for fear that if he thought about it, he would go crazy immediately.

Leaping across the low wall, Solan almost sat paralyzed at the base of the wall, sweating all over his body, with no strength left in his body.

But he also felt that he had finally returned to the real world. The rough sand under the wall, the gray wall covering around his body, and the cold but strong support on his back all made Solan feel He came back to life in an instant, making him laugh out loud as if he was stressed, and attracted many Memphis people passing by nearby to look sideways.

Erich, who has always maintained a spiritual connection with Solan, is also wiping the sweat off her forehead at this moment, thinking: God, help...

Asking Solan to complete this task is just to test his observation and execution skills, but he didn't expect Solan to be so... disobedient and self-assessed.

But having said that, she was indeed too careless in this matter - to determine the status of a god, at least she should go there with the priesthood of God, so as to ensure that there is no great danger.

Solan is just a follower, but he has been a general for a long time, and what he is most used to is making decisions and making decisions.

But Ailixi's original intention was to let Solan check the outer situation of the Temple of Osiris and inquire about the news, and did not intend to let him enter.

Therefore, Erich directly gave Soran a bad review for his first mission. If Soran could see the wheel of fortune on his right arm, he would find that he didn't accumulate any merits this time——

Erich was even thinking that the merits accumulated on the wheel of fortune in the future should be considered to be deductible.Well, we have to consider how to express it in case it is deducted as a negative number.

But there is no doubt that this little adventure made Solan very happy.

The premonition of fear just now gave Solan the feeling of returning to the battlefield for a short time. The short-term stimulation of struggling to survive after feeling the fear made his blood rush. He once again felt that he was really alive, and he was living for himself. .

"Very good, great God Amon, starting today, Solan believes that you do have the vision to foresee all risks."

Solan felt a sincere emotion in his heart.The timing of the other party's reminder just now was just right, and he had a hunch that even if it was one step later, he would be in trouble.

Therefore, at this moment, he really felt a kind of sincere trust in his heart—in any case, the voice in his heart represented a true God.

"The next task is to find out about Pharaoh's recent plans."

When Soran heard the voice, his laughter didn't stop.

He suddenly became dumb, and asked the other party directly in his heart: "God meant that I should be a spy to spy on Pharaoh?"

Alicia: ...hehe...

This old man, after he became the favored person of God Amon, had no respect for God, so he barely called him by his first name, and even questioned the mission God had entrusted to him.

"You can decide for yourself whether to accept this task—"

She replied somewhat angrily.When she established a spiritual connection with Soran, she adjusted her voice slightly, making her voice closer to Nanna's neutral voice.

For Tabac and Minnie, sounding like Erich might be a good thing.But for Solan it could backfire.

"Hahaha--"

Solan suddenly laughed happily again.

He stood up, patted the dust on his body, and at the same time replied in his heart: "Just when you thought I wouldn't take this task, I just wanted to take it—"

He smiled unscrupulously, but his eyes remained calm.

Because this task is difficult for Solan.

After returning to Memphis from Upper Egypt, Soran could count on one hand the number of times he met Pharaoh Delos.

In Lower Egypt, it is well known that the High Priest's family was in an embarrassing situation because of their relationship with Elyse.

And he, the general who once launched a coup to fight for power for his soldiers, seems destined to be emptied from then on.

It might be the best ending for Solan to let him be a rich and idle man in Memphis and just die like this.

But the amazing thing is that for some reason, the great priest Dahor became a popular person around the Pharaoh again, able to enter and leave the royal court at any time, and participate in Delos's handling of various government affairs.

This made Solan secretly wonder whether his father had learned some spells, or had given the Pharaoh some medicine.

What the old man could do, he, Solan, simply tried when he was bored.

Thinking of this, Solan strode his long legs and casually walked into a clothing store that had just opened on the side of the road: "I need a complete set of clothing and jewelry, which will allow me to enter the royal court to meet His Majesty..."

Half an hour later, Solan waited outside the royal court of Memphis, just in time to stop the sedan chair of the great priest Dahor: "Father!" Solan lowered his head and said.

"Finally figured it out..."

Dahool was sitting on a high sedan chair, and his teasing eyes slipped towards Soran.

Since returning to Memphis, the father-son relationship hasn't really improved much.

But Dahoor has mentioned many times that he can bring Solan into the royal court, bow his head to the pharaoh, and regain the king's trust.

Solan has been strong in front of Dahool for so long, and he refuses to bow his head.But today his thoughts suddenly turned around——

He's not bowing to Dahor, he's using a necessary means in the process of completing a difficult task.

Deep down in his heart, he actually wanted to know how much Pharaoh himself hated Elyse after the almost humiliating ceremony in Thebes, and what methods he would use to attack Upper Egypt.

With this thought in mind, Solan followed Dahor's sedan chair on foot to the Royal Court of Memphis, and Dahol got off the sedan chair.The father and son entered the royal court on foot, came to the pharaoh's hall, and saluted the pharaoh together.

In the middle of the pharaoh's hall, there is a long newly made pine table.Therefore, the whole hall is filled with an elegant fragrance from pine wood.

Solan got up after following his father's salute, and at a glance he saw a whole map spread out on the long table, showing the general topography of Egypt and neighboring countries.

Solan saw many things like maps when he was in charge of the frontier army, so he didn't think it was strange.

It's just that he had only seen maps of the surrounding areas before, such as the vicinity of Mahalla's garrison, or the vicinity of Tanis, or the maps of each Nome itself.

Not to mention how exquisite and gorgeous the map drawn on papyrus is, such a large and complete map is only owned by the Pharaoh.

Solan was thinking about what was on his mind when he suddenly felt Pharaoh's gloomy gaze turned towards him.

The great priest Dahor hummed softly beside Soran.

Hearing the sound, Solan knelt down on one knee, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, Solan is reporting to you. It's a troubled time for the country. Solan has worked hard for many years, and all of them are attached to the border army of Lower Egypt. Now he can't stay out of it. Ability, for my king to do the work of a dog and a horse."

He knelt down without the slightest hesitation, as if he really had a complete change of heart and changed his past.

He originally thought that he would need to go through a complicated psychological struggle to make such a move.But at this moment, these words flowed out of his mouth smoothly, without any pressure.

This is... the price you need to pay to become the favored one of Amon.

Once he has identified a goal worth fighting for, can all the pride he held before be sacrificed at any time?

Or maybe it means that he has become the favored person of a certain god with a mentality of self-destruction and self-destructiveness, but he is really willing to go through fire and water for him from now on?

Solan lowered his head and silently observed the changes in his mood.Therefore, he didn't pay attention to the pharaoh Delos standing behind the long table with his hands on the table. He looked up and glanced at the great priest Dahor before slowly turning to Solan, and said in a deep voice: "General——"

"King, I'm glad you're finally back."
