The city of Troy was destroyed.The ships of the triumphant Greeks were battered by wind and waves, and most of them were destroyed.The few warships that survived the disaster continued to sail and returned to their hometowns after the weather was calm.Agamemnon's warship was protected by Hera, and his ship sailed to the coast of Peloponnese.But when he had just reached the coast of Malaia, Laconia, a strong wind blew the boat out to sea again.Agamemnon raised his hands to the sky and begged the gods not to let him die at the bottom of the sea when he was about to reach his hometown after he had experienced many sufferings in accordance with the will of the gods.He didn't know that the storm was sent by the gods, who warned him to drift to a foreign country instead of returning to the palace of McKenni.

People in Agamemnon's family have always created disasters artificially and killed each other.This goes back to his great-grandfather Tantalus.His forefathers used violence in spite of their sins, and some seized power and glory, while others fell to ruin.Now Agamemnon will also be killed because of the conspiracy of the family members to seize power.Once upon a time, his great-grandfather Tantalus once invited the gods to a banquet, but he killed his son Pelops, cooked him and served him on the table, and the gods miraculously revived Pelops.Pelops was innocent, but he killed the good Myrtiros, making the family more sinful.Myrtiros was the son of the god Hermes, and he was the steward of King Oenomaus.

Pelops made a bet with the king on a racing car, and if he won, he could marry the king's daughter Hippodamia.Pelops bribed Myrtiros to remove the bronze nails from the king's chariot and replace them with wax nails.The car overturned while King Oenomaus was racing, Pelops won and won the king's daughter Hippodamia.However, when Myrtiros asked him for the promised reward, Pelops pushed him into the sea and killed him.Pelops repeatedly begged the angry god Hermes to forgive him, and built a tomb for Myrtiros and a temple for Hermes, but Hermes still couldn't appease his anger and vowed to sacrifice to Pelops. Puss and his descendants took revenge.

Pelops had two sons: Atreus and Thyestes.The two of them fought each other and committed deeper sins.Atreus was king of Mycenae, and Thyestes ruled the southern part of Argoris.Atreus, the elder brother, kept a golden-haired ram.Thyestes coveted the ram, and tried his best to get it.He seduced his brother's wife, Elop, and she gave him the golden ram.When Atreus saw his brother committing a double sin, he immediately resorted to revenge as his grandfather had done.He quietly captured the two sons of Thyestes, Tantalus and Plestethys, killed them, and cooked them into delicious dishes, and entertained Thyestes at a banquet.At the same time, he gave Thyestes the child's blood companion and fine wine to drink.Seeing this terrible tragedy, the sun god was also frightened and turned the sun chariot.Later Thyestes, fearing his brother, fled to Epirus and joined King Thesprotos.

There was severe drought and famine in the kingdom of Atreus.The king learned from the oracle that only by taking back the exiled brothers can the domestic disaster be eliminated.Atreus set out to find him himself, and found him in Thyestes' hiding place.They returned to their native land together, and Aegisthus son of Thyestes also returned with them.Aegisthus had long sworn to avenge his father against Atreus and his sons.After Atreus and his brother returned to Mycenae, their friendship lasted only a short time.Atreus put his brother in prison.Aegisthus devised a plan.He pretended to be dissatisfied with his father and asked his uncle to kill his father.When he was admitted to prison, he plotted with his father how to get revenge.Later, he showed Atreus a sharp sword covered in blood.Atreus thought that his brother was dead, and was overjoyed, so he sacrificed on the coast to thank God.Then Aegisthus drew his sword and killed Atreus.Thyestes usurped his brother's throne after he was released from prison.After Atreus was killed, his sons Agamemnon and Menelaus fled to Sparta to join King Tyndareus.The king's wife was Leda, Helen's mother.There Agamemnon married Clytemnestra, and Menelaus married Helen.Tyndarius made Menelaus his heir before dying.Agamemnon returned to Mycenae, killed Thyestes, and became king of Mycenae.Aegisthus was pardoned.The gods kept him safe and let him continue to create a murderous disaster for this family.So he returned to the land his father had ruled in the south of Argolis, and became king.

Agamemnon went to Troy, and his wife Clytemnestra stayed in the palace very sadly, resenting her husband for sacrificing his daughter Iphigenia.Aegisthus saw the time had come to avenge the son of Atreus.He came to the palace of Mykenny. Clytemnestra resented her husband, so she deliberately spoiled him. After being tempted by Aegisthus, she gave herself to him and shared the throne with him.At that time there were still three children of Agamemnon living in the palace, one was Electra, the sister of Iphigenia, the other was their sister Chrysothemis, and the last was the little boy Ore. sters.Aegisthus usurped their mother's and father's thrones in their presence.As the Trojan War drew to a close, the concubine couple were concerned that Agamemnon would punish them upon his return.For this reason, they set up beacon posts on the battlements, and asked the sentries to light the beacon fire as soon as they found the king's return, and signal them.This way, they have enough time to prepare.They intended to welcome Agamemnon with a grand feast, and to trap him before he discovered what was happening in the palace.

Late one night, the beacon fire finally ignited.The sentinel hurriedly reported to the queen.Clytemnestra and Aegisthus sat anxiously until dawn.The next day, just as the sun was rising, a messenger from the triumphant Agamemnon arrived at Mycenae's palace with an olive branch in hand.The Queen pretended to be very happy to receive him, but managed to keep him out of the palace, or to have any contact with anyone, that he might not know the truth.When the messenger reported the battle to the queen, she interrupted him hastily, saying: "Stop talking! I will hear all this from the king myself. Go back quickly and tell him to come back quickly!" Tell him that I will personally greet him triumphantly with the greatest courtesy."
