Ra is supreme

Chapter 75: I Don't Want to Marry the Egyptian Pharaoh

The emperor gave his throne to Long Siqi and arranged for eunuchs to bring top-quality tribute tea and fresh fruits, which Long Siqi tasted with relish.

The emperor smiled and said to Wang Yunyan, "Yunyan, what important matter is there that makes you come to see me so early in the morning? You also invited your aunt and Concubine Ye to come."

Wang Shixia, who was standing by, said nothing, with a serious expression. Concubine Ye looked terrified. The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess were the protagonists of the wedding banquet, so they came to the Golden Throne Hall early with the Queen.

Next, Wang Yunyan told the whole story of how the fourth prince Wang Shangchong violated Wang Zuxiao twice...

"Yunyan invited everyone here today because she hopes that my father will make the decision on this matter!" Wang Yunyan said.

Bang! The emperor threw the cup in his hand to the ground and shouted angrily: "Wang Shangchong, this bastard! It's ok for him to flirt with women and do evil things on weekdays, but he actually dared to do such a beastly thing!"

He turned to look at Concubine Ye: "Concubine Ye! How did you discipline your son? How dare you violate Zuxiao? Zuxiao is not only my niece, but also a princess of the Kingdom of Britain. That bastard Wang Shangchong is simply asking for his life!"

Concubine Ye fell to her knees with a plop. She had heard about this last night and was so scared that she couldn't sleep all night. She didn't know how to defend her son. She kept kowtowed to the ground, crying and begging, "It's Shang Chong's fault. He made a big mistake because of his confusion. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Normally, the Crown Prince and Wang Shangchong had the best relationship, but he had just married Princess Yagena of the Kingdom of Britain and established a relationship with the British royal family. In addition, Wang Zuqi was his cousin, so he had no intention of pleading for Wang Shangchong.

Queen Lu didn't want to say anything good about Wang Shangchong. It was already good enough that she didn't add fuel to the fire.

At this time, Princess Yagena said: "Elizasa is engaged to Pharaoh Ramses I of the Kingdom of Egypt. She cannot be violated. She must ensure that she is a virgin, otherwise there will be serious consequences!"

Hearing this, the emperor's expression became more solemn. The Pharaoh of the Egyptian Kingdom was a monarch with divine power. He ruled the land connecting the East and the West. Egypt was one of the four major powers, and its strength was comparable to that of the Chinese dynasty. He could not afford to offend him.

If the matter of Wang Shangchong's infringement on Wang Zuqi is not dealt with today, it may offend both the Kingdom of Britain and the Kingdom of Egypt at the same time, which will be a disaster for the Chinese Dynasty.

The emperor frowned and paced back and forth in the hall. He was very conflicted. If he dealt with Wang Shangchong according to the national law, he would surely die. However, no matter what, he was his own son. If he was not severely punished, it would anger the royal families of the other two powerful countries.

No one spoke, only the sound of Concubine Ye crying her heart out could be heard.

After a long while, the emperor came to the eunuch chief Lu Dahai, whispered a few words to him, and then walked towards the inner hall with heavy steps.

Lu Dahai came respectfully to Concubine Ye and conveyed the emperor's edict to everyone.

"Because the Fourth Prince Wang Shangchong has committed a terrible crime, Wang Shangchong is now demoted to a commoner and exiled to the Western Territory. This will be executed immediately!"

Concubine Ye fainted from crying, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Although the emperor's action was very harsh, it at least saved Wang Shangchong's life.

Wang Yunyan was very satisfied with the emperor's decision. She held Wang Shixia and Wang Zu's hands and said, "Aunt, cousin Zu's sister, father has already done justice for you. You can live in the palace with peace of mind and stay as long as you want!"

A smile finally broke out on Wang Shixia's face. She didn't want to sympathize with that beastly nephew at all. Her precious daughter's innocence was almost ruined by him. The emperor was merciful by not punishing him according to the law.

The Queen and the Crown Prince seemed to be out of the matter and continued discussing today's wedding.

In the past few days, Long Siqi, Wang Zuqi and Wang Yunyan have been together every day. Long Siqi is there for the food, Wang Zuqi is the protagonist of the British dance troupe at the wedding banquet, and Wang Yunyan is one of the main responsible persons on the Chinese royal family's side. The three of them go out early and come back late, having a lot of fun.

Every night, Wang Zuqi would stay quietly beside the stream in Wanhua Palace and stare blankly. After the hustle and bustle, she would always look very sad.

Every time Wang Yunyan asked her if she was unhappy, she said no, it was because she was a little tired from dancing. Wang Yunyan didn't think much about it.

That night, Wang Zuqi was alone by the stream, in a daze. Chang Jiao came to her side, holding Xiao Baibai, and said gently, "Sister Zuqi, you have been worried these days. Maybe you can tell me what it is, and I can help you analyze it."

Chang Jiao is a very kind fairy. Having been with Wang Zuxiao day and night these days, she began to like this simple and kind woman.

Wang Zuqi smiled at Changjiao and shook his head.

Chang Jiao could see that Wang Zuqi was a person who would swallow any pain to herself and was unwilling to bring trouble to others. She was truly a good girl with noble character.

"You want to accompany your mother and don't want to go to Egypt to marry." Chang Jiao said.

Wang Zuqi looked at Chang Jiao with surprise. She actually knew what he was thinking?

Chang Jiao smiled and said gently: "The sisters in Wanhua Palace can see what you are thinking. If you have any troubles, you can tell me directly."

Wang Zuxiao bit her lip and nodded, "Sister Changjiao, I don't want to marry Ramesh I. I want to stay with my mother forever. She will be bullied if she is alone in the British court."

"What about your own safety? I can see that you are very afraid of Ramesh I." Chang Jiao said.

Wang Zuxiao smiled bitterly and shook his head. "It is said that Ramesh I married three queens and more than 3,000 concubines, all of whom died in childbirth. The children they gave birth to were all grotesque and none of them lived for more than three days. Sister Changjiao, I am not afraid of death. I am just worried that after I am gone, no one will take care of my mother!"

As he spoke, Wang Zuxiao shed sad tears.

Seeing Wang Zuqi's sincere filial piety, Chang Jiao was deeply moved. She is also a human being, and she also had parents and relatives. Although they have passed away for many years, she has never forgotten the blood-thicker-than-water family ties.

She lamented that in order to fight for power and profit, mortals would rather sacrifice their loved ones and even their own happiness, just to satisfy the sense of control from a high position. This is also the biggest difference between mortals and gods.

Chang Jiao had also heard that the Egyptian Pharaoh Ramses I was not human, but she was not in charge of the Egyptian divine domain, so she did not ask about it. Now hearing what Wang Zuqi said, Chang Jiao also felt that Ramses I was very evil, and he had killed so many women and babies.

If Wang Zuxiao marries him, she will be in danger of death!
