Chapter 18 confusing

From hearing that sentence until now, my mind has been blank.He was mechanically brought back by Alina, and he has been sitting mechanically since he came back, without changing his position once. There are only two words in my head ----- sleeping... If I go to solve Princess Laimi now, it will be done once and for all, will the mission be completed and I can go back? Although this idea is a bit vicious and reckless, it is still feasible, right? "Princess, it's getting late, don't you want to take a bath?" "No!" "Don't you use sesame oil?" "Don't wipe!"

Alina looked at me in disbelief, "Princess, are you going to welcome the king like this?" "There's nothing wrong with this, it's natural." I rubbed my hair, forgot it, the boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and I will always have a way to deal with it. In short, you will never let yourself have any losses. "Natural... well said." Nebu's voice came from outside the door at some point, and he had already walked in front of me while my face was twitching. "Is this the natural color?" He narrowed his silver-gray eyes, bent down and whispered in my ear, "When we don't wear anything, that will be the natural color."

My face burned up, uh --------- There was a mocking smile in his eyes, and he turned to Alina and said, "Why don't you go out, do you want to continue watching?" Alina turned pale with fright, rushed out of the room, and closed the door firmly.He approached me with an ambiguous smile on the corner of his mouth, and a strange light flashed in his eyes - I felt a sudden chill down my spine, and I couldn't help but step back, trying to calm down. "Are you afraid of me?" The smile on his lips deepened, "Aymis, you are my concubine, shouldn't it be what you have been looking forward to all along?"

Me, I look forward to a ghost! "I think the king came here for something else." I looked up at him, "For example---Xiaoni." He didn't deny it, just said: "Pour me a glass of date palm wine." I quickly poured it over and handed it to him. He took it, took a sip, looked up at the night outside, and suddenly said, "The time is almost here." "When?" I was puzzled. The smile on the corner of his mouth has disappeared, "I'll find out later." He just sat there drinking wine and didn't speak any more.I felt a little relieved, and sat down on the chair next to me. As the time passed, sleepiness gradually hit me. I supported my chin with my hands, feeling a little sleepy...

"Bang!" After an unknown amount of time, my chin suddenly hit the table in a daze, and the impact knocked all my drowsiness away. "You can fall asleep like this." A cold voice came from beside me. I looked up and couldn't help being surprised. The person sitting there was no longer Nebu, but——— - Ninny. "You are the king, and the king is you, right?" I finally expressed this conjecture that made me feel extremely absurd. He was silent for a moment, then whispered, "As you can see." "What the hell is going on here? Could it be that you can transform?" A werewolf family that transformed on the night of the full moon suddenly appeared in my mind.

He nodded, "That's right, at this time every night, I'll be seven or eight years old, and I won't recover until dawn." "That's why you never spend the night with the concubine?" I immediately thought of this, "But why is this?" He glanced at me, and the hand holding the cup trembled slightly, "Because, that's a curse." "Curse?" I felt a little unbelievable, "But no matter what kind of curse it is, there must be a way to undo it." "There is a way to get rid of it." He raised his head and drank the wine, "but that is something I will never be able to do."

"You need the person who tied the bell to untie the bell. The person who cast a curse on you must also have a way to undo the curse." He stared at the cup expressionlessly, "That person is already dead." I didn't say anything more, if that's the case, it might be difficult to lift his curse.Could it be that the famous Nebuchadnezzar II in ancient history has always been burdened with this strange curse? He put down his wine glass, stood up, staggered to the side of the bed, and fell on his head. "Hey, this is my bed," my protest was ineffective, he had already made a slight sound of deep sleep...

Maybe, this is also good, just let him sleep until dawn, looking at his face of a seven or eight-year-old child, I can't kick him away... I just put a blanket on him On the body, I saw his eyelashes moving slightly. "You pretended to be asleep..." I slapped him on the head unceremoniously, and regretted it a little after finishing the beating, this is the king of Babylon... unexpectedly he hit him so smoothly.Fortunately, he didn't care, he just raised the corners of his mouth and smiled at me. "Then come and sleep with me." "Cut, I'm not interested." I took two more blankets, spread them on the marble floor, blew out the candles, and lay down.

"Aymis..." He suddenly called me in a low voice. "Why?" I just answered angrily, and suddenly thought of something, "Now that I know the secret, you won't kill people to silence it?" He smiled softly, "If you want to kill you, you can do it in the garden, why wait until now." "Then...why tell me?" "I don't know why. I just think you can be trusted. In fact, when I saw you for the first time, I felt like I've seen you somewhere for a long time. And, maybe you can..." He didn't continue. I was stunned, I seem to have heard this kind of words somewhere...

"So, absolutely don't betray me," his tone became cold again. "Okay, okay..." I yawned, my consciousness began to blur, "Good night, kid..." Tonight was probably the worst night I slept since I came to Babylon. I always had strange dreams about being crushed under the mountain all night. It was hard to breathe but I just couldn’t wake up. I finally woke up when the warm Babylonian sun shone into the room. But---why do I still feel like I'm being pressed by something... I opened my eyes in a daze, looked sideways, blinked a few times, turned my head again, stared at the ceiling petrified for a few seconds, and suddenly shouted, "Ah!!! "As if being stepped on, the tail bounced off the ground all of a sudden.

Ni, this guy, Nibu, unexpectedly fell asleep next to me at some point, and shamelessly put his hand on my chest! He was woken up by my screams, he opened his silver-gray eyes blankly, and murmured, "What's wrong?" Seeing his reaction, I was also taken aback, waved my hand in front of him, showed two fingers, and asked, "How many fingers are these?" He still looked blank, "Three..." A drop of cold sweat broke out on my forehead. This famous, heroic and mighty king of Babylon seems to be still in a state of no brains.It's really depressing, the fire in my stomach actually encountered a firewall... "Princess, what happened!" Alina heard my yell, couldn't help pushing the door open, and when she saw the scene in the room, she immediately blushed and murmured, "I, I didn't see anything ..." "Alina, go and bring in a basin of water." My head seemed to be hurting... After Alina took the water and left in a hurry, she didn't forget to show me an excited smile.I picked up the wet towel and wiped his face vigorously. Anyway, his IQ is so low now, so I took this opportunity to retaliate.After just a few swipes, my wrist was firmly grasped.Following that hand, I looked up and saw that his eyes had returned to their usual unfathomable depth. "So hard, do you want to scratch my face?" He looked at me with a half-smile. Ah, I woke up so quickly... I just threw the towel and said angrily, "How could you sleep beside me!" He froze for a moment, only to realize that he was lying on the ground, a strange expression flashed away, so he sat up slowly, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "You are my concubine, what's so strange about sleeping together. " "This was the worst night I've ever slept in." I glared at him rudely. "This is the night I slept the most soundly." He smiled slightly, "So starting today, I will live here every night." "Ah------" I petrified again. "My poor girl, I'm so happy." There was a teasing smile on his brows. As he was talking, he suddenly frowned slightly. I took a closer look and found that there was a faint bruise on his left forehead, not only on his left forehead, but also on his left shoulder. Reminiscent of his strange expression just now, I suddenly thought of a possibility... Thinking of this, I finally showed a smile, and at least I had an outlet to vent all my depression. "Of course I am honored, but before the king comes tonight, please allow me to make a fence first." "Fence?" "Yeah, put a fence on the bed so that the king won't fall down again..." "you……" Seeing his embarrassed expression, I felt a little relieved, and I guessed right, he really fell off the bed... But I forgot, my wrist was still pinched in his hand, so the next In seconds, I was revenged by him... The moment I fell into his arms, I screamed inwardly, God, the terrible cradle of hell-----here it comes again! Even if I punch and kick him, he won't let go, it's stronger than dad's barrier... "Let go, or I'll bite!" He smiled happily, "Aymis, this kind of you is the real you. I just like---" "Bang!" At this moment, the door was suddenly knocked open. Before Nebu got angry, the person who rushed in had knelt down and said in a trembling voice, "My lord, Princess Laimi, she is in the palace this morning. Violent death!" This news is too shocking.When I followed Nibu to Princess Laimi's palace and saw the lifeless body, I was really sure that she was dead. There was nothing suspicious about her body, it wasn't poisoned, it wasn't murder, it wasn't suicide. Really -------- weird. Thinking of drinking with her that night, I also feel a little melancholy in my heart.When the guards carried her body out, her dress was blown up by the wind. At that moment, I found that the red snake logo on her leg had disappeared... I just feel that my mind is in chaos, and the relationship that I have finally sorted out is suddenly torn apart, and the only clue is broken like this... So, who is it?Who wants to kill the queen? I looked up and looked around at the concubines and women who came to hear the news. Is the person I want to find among them?Which one is it... which one is it?Everyone is alike, but everyone is not alike... By the way, what about the queen?After such a big incident, why didn't you see the queen? My heart sank suddenly, and just as I was about to ask, another attendant rushed in from the door, "The king, the queen, the queen..." My heart sank, and I uttered a voice almost at the same time as Nebu: "What's wrong with the queen!" The attendant knelt down tremblingly, "My lord, the queen's bedroom is empty!" Neb was taken aback, turned around and walked towards the queen's bedroom. What the hell is going on here?The sudden death of Princess Lemi and the disappearance of the queen, everything happened at the same time as it was agreed upon. Moreover, there is no record of the disappearance of the Queen of Babylon in history... I couldn't help but complain to myself, being in the same royal palace, I couldn't even protect the queen. I kept focusing on Princess Lemy, but I didn't think of anyone else. Everything has become so confusing. The queen's bedroom was in a mess, obviously showing signs of being turned over... It is impossible for the queen herself to leave the palace inexplicably, the only possibility is that she was taken away.I looked up at Neb, and his eyes showed the same doubt as mine.However, this is the royal palace of Babylon, so it is unimaginable to kidnap a person, and this person is also the queen of Babylon. When we walked out of the Queen's bedroom, we unknowingly walked to the old place where we often met in the middle of the night. Nebu stared at the hanging garden not far away, and said in a low voice, "Who is it that actually kidnapped the queen in my palace?" "No matter who it is, at least there are no traces of fighting or blood at the scene, then at least the queen is safe. As long as she is alive, there is always a way to save her." I didn't have a clue for a moment. "Aymis," he seemed to have something to say, but just as he called my name, he was interrupted by a man in black who was running towards me.I remember this man, he was the soldier captain who welcomed us back to Babylon. He didn't say anything, just took out a parchment scroll from his pocket and handed it to Nebu. Neb stretched out his hand to take it, glanced at it quickly, his face turned livid, and the raging anger began to burn in his eyes... "What's the matter? What happened?" I've never seen such a terrible expression on his face. He was obviously very angry, and said angrily, "King Zedqiah betrayed me, Babylon, and surrendered to Egypt, and even kidnapped the queen from my palace as a threat!" It turns out that this is not the first time. As early as a few years ago, King Jehoiachin of Judea had left New Babylon and joined the camp of Egypt. When Nebuchadnezzar learned that he had been betrayed, he was furious and personally led the The army captured Jerusalem.After the victory, Nebu deposed Jehoiachin and made Jehoiachin's uncle Zedqiah the king of Judea, and asked him to swear allegiance to the New Babylonian Kingdom and not to rebel. Unexpectedly, not only was he betrayed again, but the queen was also kidnapped. No wonder Nebu was so angry. His knuckles were rattling, and he gritted his teeth, "Pass my order to send troops to attack the Jewish state today. I, Nebuchadnezzar, swear in the name of God Marduk, that Jerusalem must be crushed this time!" "King, do you want your subordinates to chase after him immediately?" the man in black asked. Nebu immediately shook his head, "Qideqiya sent the news so quickly, he must have already arranged a safe escape route, and it will be useless to chase after him." I also need time to digest this sudden situation. It turned out that the King of Judea sent someone to kidnap the queen, and the other party took the queen as a hostage. Could it be the Hanging Garden?It is because of this garden that the neighboring countries all know that the king's favorite person is the queen, so Qi Deqiya thought of this. Have I been walking in the wrong circles?The person I'm looking for is not in the palace, but in faraway Jerusalem. God, Jerusalem, so far away -------- "I'll go with you too!" I said looking into his eyes. When he turned to me, his gaze softened a little, "Aymis, you stay in the palace obediently until I return from destroying the Jewish state." This time it was not in Rome. The Babylonians had a completely different mindset from the Romans. It was indeed extremely difficult for a woman to go out with the army, so I didn’t try harder. "Understood." I lowered my head and stared at the ground, not letting me follow, it doesn't matter, I naturally have my way. On the eve of his departure, Nebu came to my bedroom again. This time, I finally really saw his transformation... However, even if he turned into a child of seven or eight years old, I still couldn't get rid of the gloom on his brow. As before, I still fell asleep on the ground, he just frowned slightly, but didn't say anything about it. "Even if I am like this now, don't you want to sleep next to me?" "Tomorrow the king is leaving, it's better to sleep comfortably... two people are more crowded..." Maybe it was because the position was too close. Before I could finish speaking, I was grabbed onto the bed by him, and then I was hugged tightly by him. Fortunately, at this age, he can't use Hell's Cradle... "Hey……" "That way... I can sleep well." "I can't sleep well..." Just as I was trying to break his hands apart, his voice came faintly from above my head, "Aymis, why do people always betray me..." I froze for a moment, then looked at him now, he was just a child, the look flashed in his silver-gray eyes made me feel familiar, as if there was an inexplicable familiarity feel. Oh, forget it, treat him like a child tonight. I patted him on the shoulder lightly, "Stop thinking about it, go to bed early, and leave for Jerusalem tomorrow." He responded with a low voice, and suddenly turned around. "Aymis..." He spoke again just as I was getting drowsy. "Ok?" "Never betray me, never lie to me..." I didn't say anything more, I just gave a vague reply, and then I fell asleep on my side. Sorry, Neb... I don't want to lie to you, but, I ----- not Aymis.
