Chapter 276 I Am Your Pharaoh

Luo Yin rested in the Pharaoh's palace for one night.

The next day.

Ankhesenamon sent someone to invite Luo Yin early in the morning and asked Luo Yin to have breakfast with her.

Ankhesenamon's palace.

Luo Yin and Ankhesenamon sat on both sides of a table, and Ankhesenamon absent-mindedly enjoyed the food handed over by the maids.

This was also the first time that Luo Yin saw Ankhesenamon's face hidden by a veil.

This last princess of the 18th Dynasty of Egypt not only inherited the peerless beauty of her mother Nefertiti, but also had the nobility and majesty of a goddess, which made Luo Yin suspect that she was the incarnation of Yinsis, the queen of the gods who once reigned over the gods of Egypt.

Noticing Luo Yin's gaze, Ankhesenamon looked at Luo Yin expressionlessly and said.

"Don't get me wrong. I invited you to dinner because I don't want you to be poisoned like my brother Tutankhamun."

Ankhesenamon's brother Tutankhamun died at the age of 18, which was the age when he could take back the real power from the powerful minister Ayin II.

There is no doubt that Tutankhamun died because of Ayin II's conspiracy.

Because Ayin II did not kill Tutankhamun, he would lose the power to replace the young pharaoh.

After losing power, the revenge of various enemies would inevitably kill Ayin II and destroy his clan.

So Ayin II had every reason to kill Tutankhamun to save the power he was about to lose.

"I just want to tell you that after I become the pharaoh as your husband, I will not rule the Egyptian Empire with you. I will reign over Egypt as the only ruler, and you will be a hostess in the palace!"

Hearing Luo Yin's words, Ankhesenamon couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise.

There is no custom of kings and queens ruling together in other regions, so it's okay for Luo Yin to make such a request.

But in Egypt, there is not only the custom of the king and queen ruling together, but also the example of the queen being the only ruler.

Luo Yin relied on Ankhsenamon to get the throne of Pharaoh, but he wanted to push Ankhsenamon out of the center of power. Ankhsenamon couldn't help saying.

"My favorability towards you is really getting lower and lower. It seems that I don't need to feel guilty about using you."

"You and I are in a mutually beneficial relationship. You want to use me to deal with Ayin II, and I want to use you to become Pharaoh, so you are not sorry for me."

After breakfast, Luo Yin and Ankhsenamon came to the hall where the Pharaoh received his subjects.

Because of the arrival of Prince Sitai, Ankhsenamon's marriage is about to begin, and a new Pharaoh will appear in the Egyptian Empire. Today, all the important subjects of Memphis City came to the hall.

Luo Yin and Ankhsenamon climbed the steps where the throne was and looked down at the hall. They saw that the southern Egyptians headed by Ayin II were all in high positions. Although the northern Egyptians were not in high positions, they were almost all generals who controlled military power.

The 18th Dynasty established by the Southern Egyptians ruled the Northern Egyptians for hundreds of years. While the Southern Egyptians made the Northern Egyptians fight for their lives on the battlefield, they also gave the Northern Egyptians the ability to dominate the life and death of the Southern Egyptians.

This is exactly why the Northern Egyptian Ramses I was able to usurp the throne and establish the 19th Dynasty.

Seeing the humiliating Luo Yin, Ayin II took the initiative to speak to Ankhsenamon.

"Your Majesty Ankhsenamon! I heard that Prince Sitai refused to worship the god Amun, causing the priests of the Temple of Amun to be unwilling to witness his wedding. The great king of the gods, Amun, is the guardian god worshipped by the Pharaoh royal family. If Prince Sitai does not worship the god Amun, he is not qualified to be our Pharaoh. Please change your mind and choose a new husband."

After Ayin II finished speaking, an elderly Northern Egyptian stood up and said.

"Amon is not the only great god. If the Hittite prince is willing to worship the great sun god Ra, the new pharaoh and the empire can also be protected by Ra."

Luo Yin certainly knew that the northern Egyptians supported him only to let Ra, the sun god of the northern Egyptians, replace Amon as the protector of the country.

The change in the status of Ra and Amon means that the northern Egyptians no longer have to be inferior to the southern Egyptians.

If Luo Yin was an ordinary Hittite prince, it would be a good way to rule the Egyptians by worshipping Ra, the sun god, in exchange for the support of the northern Egyptians.

Because the northern Egyptians don't care who their pharaoh is.

The Western Semites came to Northern Egypt, and the northern Egyptians became obedient subjects under the rule of the Western Semites.

The Southern Egyptians came to Northern Egypt, and the northern Egyptians became obedient subjects under the rule of the Southern Egyptians.

Now let a Hittite become the pharaoh, the northern Egyptians will certainly not say that they find it difficult to accept.

All the northern Egyptians want is for the rulers to worship Ra and let them enjoy equal status and treatment with the southern Egyptians.

Thousands of years later, when the Persians and Greeks ruled Egypt, the Egyptians did not unite to resist these foreign conquerors, which shows their attitude towards foreign rulers.

"I will neither change my name to Luo Yin Meng nor to Luo Yin Ra, nor will I add the names of other gods to my name."

Under the shocked gaze of the southern and northern Egyptians, Luo Yin said expressionlessly.

"I will not worship any god, because the one who will rule you is me, not Amon or Ra."

After listening to Luo Yin's words, Ankhsenamon, who was sitting on the throne, sighed.

Luo Yin refused to respect Amon and offended the southern Egyptians, and now he refused to respect Ra and offended the northern Egyptians.

Now Ankhsenamon seemed to be able to see the scene of the southern and northern Egyptians joining forces to deal with Luo Yin.

Luo Yin did not care about the reaction of the crowd, and sat directly on the throne, holding Ankhsenamon in his arms and said.

"Southern Egyptians! Northern Egyptians! I don't need any gods to witness, I just need you to witness. As you can see, from now on I am Ankhsenamon's husband, that is, the pharaoh who rules all of you Egyptians. Under my rule, I will not allow anyone to resist me."

"You are really a lunatic!"

Ayin II sneered immediately.

"You don't worship Amun or Ra, and you still want to be our Pharaoh? Even if Her Majesty Ankhsenamon can accept you as her husband, we can't accept you as the Pharaoh. Now the Southern Egyptians and the Northern Egyptians are going to unite against you, the Hittite."

"Against me? You said you want to fight me?"

Luo Yin showed a cat-playing-mouse smile on his face, raised his right hand and summoned the divine spear to aim at Ayin II.

"I didn't expect that on the first day I became the Pharaoh, there would be a rebel who wanted to challenge the authority of the Pharaoh. Now I give you a chance, you can pray to your patron saint and see if your patron saint can protect your safety."

After that, Luo Yin aimed the divine spear at Ayin II's body.

Seeing that Luo Yin really wanted to kill him, Ayin II said angrily while asking his subjects to protect him.

"Hittite, I am the son of God favored by the great god Amun. Whether your patron saint is the foreign god Astarte or the Sun Queen of you Hittites, you can't defeat me."
