Getting Simulated By The Empress Is Not My Intention - Chapter 203

  【The fleet continues to move forward. 】

  【The fleet crossed the long and narrow sea and came to a brand new kingdom. 】

  On the coast, several indigenous fishermen are fishing.

  Suddenly, a native pointed to the distance and cried out in horror. Immediately afterwards, the other natives also looked into the distance, widening their eyes.

  I saw a huge fleet heading towards the sea, and their big ships were like castles on the sea, which was shocking!

  The big ship did not dock, but put down several small boats and came to the shore.

  Zhang Beichen brought people over to ask for directions.

  The natives worshiped them and regarded them as gods!

   Fortunately, Zhang Beichen brought a guide. Every time he docked, he would bring a few experienced locals with him so that he could communicate with people from other countries at the next location.

  A guide stepped forward to communicate with the natives. Soon, the guide said to Zhang Beichen: “My lord, they say this is the Ptolemaic dynasty, and we have come to the Ptolemaic dynasty.”

  The Ptolemaic Dynasty was a dynasty in ancient Egypt. Zhang Beichen probably knew where he had come.

   “Ask him where the port is, and who is the current king of the Ptolemaic dynasty?” Zhang Beichen asked.

  The guide made some inquiries and reported: “They are all just fishermen and don’t know anything. But they can go to their village chief.”

  【You find the local village chief, but the village chief doesn’t know until you find a local nobleman with a higher status. 】

  The nobles were also shocked when they saw Daqi’s fleet. In addition, Zhang Beichen and his soldiers were dressed luxuriously and had sharp weapons, and their attitude towards him was even more respectful.

  He said: “My lord, the current monarch of our country is Ptolemy XII, King Aulet. We call him Pharaoh Aolete.”

   “Our ship needs to berth in the port, and we are going to visit the king!” Zhang Beichen said to him.

   “Happy to help!” Zhang Beichen gave the aristocrat several pieces of Daqi’s porcelain, and the aristocrat regarded it as a treasure, and quickly expressed his willingness to lead the way.

  【Your fleet is moored at the port of the Ptolemaic Dynasty, and the nobles went to the capital to report the matter to Pharaoh. 】

  Zhang Beichen and others were waiting in the port city. There were too many of them, and any movement would scare the locals.

   Taking advantage of this time, Zhang Beichen began to learn the local language. As a strong man in the Holy Realm, he has the ability to hear all directions with his ears and never forget with his photographic memory. He quickly mastered the local language.

  …

  In the Ptolemaic dynasty, in the palace built with huge stones, the nobles finally met the pharaoh.

  Pharaoh Auret sits on a throne made of gold and precious stones. His face is wrinkled, his hair is gray, and his face is old.

   “Honorable Pharaoh, I need to report an important matter to you!” the nobleman shouted.

  However, Pharaoh Olette didn’t respond at all. His eyes were slightly closed, and he actually snored.

He fell asleep!

  The nobleman thought to himself: “Pharaoh Oleite is so old, he is estimated to pass away in a few years!”

   “Father!” At this moment, a young girl standing in the palace stepped forward and called Pharaoh softly.

Her skin is whiter than snow, she wears a white robe and a colorful feather headdress, her legs are slender and straight, her arms are like tender lotus root, her chest is choppy, she has deep eye sockets and a high nose bridge, her face and body are like A masterpiece of heaven, carved out with the most exquisite carving knife!

  The nobleman couldn’t help admiring in his heart: “As expected of the most beautiful woman in the Ptolemy dynasty, the reincarnation of the goddess of Vienna, the most beloved youngest daughter of Pharaoh Auret, Cleopatra!”

  Under the stage, there was another man watching this scene with a displeased expression.

  He also has a handsome face and a tall and straight figure. This is the son of Pharaoh Auret, Clotis, and Cleopatra’s half-brother. He is also favored by Pharaoh.

   After Cleopatra woke up Pharaoh Auret, Pharaoh Auret asked again: “What did you say?”

The noble said respectfully: “A fleet of ten thousand people came to our Ptolemaic Dynasty in a big ship like a castle. They came from the far east, a country called Daqi. It is said that the country is extremely prosperous, With tens of millions of people and a vast territory!”

   “Their messengers requested to see the king.”

   “Da Qi?” Pharaoh Olaite had also heard of a mysterious country in the far east, but this was the first time he heard Da Qi’s name.

  At this time, some commodities from the Silk Road had actually arrived in the Ptolemaic Dynasty, but the local people knew little about the description of Daqi.

“Cough cough.” Pharaoh Oleite coughed twice, and said, “Since they are coming from a distant oriental country, let them come to see you. Clotis, you go and bring the envoys from the east to the palace.” .”

   “Yes, my lord father.” Crotis bent down.

  ”A messenger from the East?” Cleopatra was a little curious, but she still had to stay with her father to take care of her.

  …

  Crotis took people to the port to meet the fleet from the east.

  When he came to the port, he was shocked beyond measure by the big ship in the distance!

  He has never seen those huge buildings in his life!

   “There are such big ships in the world! There are so many!” Clotis was horrified.

  Zhang Beichen met him soon, and he communicated with Crotis in fluent local language. After learning his identity, Zhang Beichen invited him to visit the ship.

  When Crotis came to the ship, his world view was refreshed again!

   On this treasure ship of Daqi, it can accommodate thousands of people inside, there are also huge warehouses, weapons called artillery, and vegetables can be grown on board, pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks and fish are raised!

  The dazzling array of goods, beautiful oriental porcelain, luxurious silk, refined iron swords, oriental jewelry, etc., made him dazzled and lingering!

  He couldn’t help but sighed: “Even the Pharaoh’s palace does not have so many treasures! There is no such treasure ship!”

  Zhang Beichen said with a smile: “If Ptolemy XII is willing to do business with Da Qi, we will continue to bring Eastern porcelain, silk and various treasures!”

   “I think the old man will definitely agree!” Clotis said, “Please ask the messenger to take someone to go to the king’s city with me to meet the pharaoh.”

   “Okay!” Zhang Beichen immediately took his personal guards and prepared to go to the royal city with Clotis.

  …

   After getting off the boat and returning to his residence, Clotis was still envious of this fleet.

  ”If I have such a fleet, I will run across the sea, and even the Roman Republic will fear my sharpness!”

  At this time, Rome was still a republic, not the Roman Empire.

  The founding ancestor of the Ptolemaic Dynasty was originally a general under Alexander’s command. He was conferred here and established the Ptolemaic Dynasty.

  So the Ptolemaic Dynasty has always regarded the powerful Roman Republic as its suzerain.

  This time and space has some deviations from the time and space history that Zhang Beichen is familiar with. He is used to it, after all, there is still mysterious power in this world, which is naturally different from the previous time and space.

   “The prince likes this fleet?” the confidant asked.

   “It’s just a boat.” Crotis said meaningfully.

  …

  Zhang Beichen followed Crotis all the way to the royal city of the Ptolemaic dynasty.

   When they came to the royal city, Clotis arranged a residence for the messengers and told him to wait for the pharaoh’s interview.

  【You have been waiting in the royal city for half a month, but Pharaoh has not received you. 】

   “Why hasn’t this pharaoh received us?” The adjutant was anxious, “The fleet is parked at the port, and it consumes a lot of money and food every day!”

  Zhang Beichen didn’t know the reason, so he sent someone out to find out the news.

  【After spending money, you finally learned that Pharaoh Olaite suddenly became seriously ill. Everyone in the palace was worried about the succession of the throne, so Pharaoh didn’t meet you. 】

   “I can’t help it, just keep waiting.” Zhang Beichen is also concerned about the succession of the Ptolemaic dynasty, because it is related to whether business can continue.

  The Ptolemaic Dynasty is a very good business node, from here goods can be shipped to the western countries.

  …

  In the palace of the Ptolemaic Dynasty.

  Ptolemy XII, Pharaoh Olaite lying on the hospital bed, his daughter Cleopatra and his son Clotis served on the sidelines.

  Pharaoh Oleite also called many elders of the dynasty this time, and he wanted to announce his funeral.

  He said with difficulty: “The next pharaoh will be jointly served by my son Klotis and my daughter Cleopatra!”

   “Cleopatra, you and Klotis must marry and govern this kingdom together.”

  Cleopatra looked at her half-brother Clotis.

   Marriage of close relatives is a tradition among the royal family, in order to ensure the purity of blood.

  Ke Cleopatra was unwilling to marry Clotis, because she knew very well that although this younger brother was handsome, he was very greedy and cunning.

  If I marry him, I will definitely become his plaything and puppet.

   “Yes!” Everyone listened to his announcement and had different thoughts.

  …

  【A few days later, Pharaoh Olaite died and was buried in the pyramid according to the etiquette. 】

  Zhang Beichen also learned that it was his son and daughter who succeeded the Pharaoh.

   Although Cleopatra also has the right to inherit, she will mainly present as queen.

   At present, the two are not yet married, so now the person who presides over the big event and the pharaoh’s scepter is Clotis.

  …

  In the palace, Clotis has already put on the pharaoh’s crown and is holding the pharaoh’s scepter.

   “Dear sister, the wedding date has been set, and we will get married in a month.” Clotis looked at his sister with fiery eyes.

  Cleopatra was the most beautiful woman in the entire Ptolemaic dynasty! Who wouldn’t want it?

   Now, power and beauties will be in his hands. At this moment, Clotis’s ambition is extremely inflated.

  Cleopatra didn’t say anything, she retreated silently, feeling uneasy in her heart.

  She is not a person who is willing to be controlled by others, just like her younger brother, she is also an ambitious person!

  The throne, why can’t it belong to her?

   After Cleopatra withdrew, his subordinates reported to Crotis: “Dear Pharaoh, Daqi’s envoys have requested to meet Pharaoh to discuss business matters.”

   “By the way, there is Daqi!” Crotis thought of the fleet he saw at the port!

   “If these ships belong to me, the consul in Rome will no longer be able to tell me what to do!” At this moment, Clotis already wants to get that fleet!

   “Everyone, how can I get Daqi’s fleet?” Crotis asked his cronies.

  The cronies immediately made suggestions and said: “Da Qi’s envoys will definitely not agree. You can pretend to do business with them first, and invite them to go ashore and host a banquet!”

   “As long as they agree, we will immediately send soldiers to kill them! In this way, all those treasure ships will be yours!”

   “Okay! Well said!” Clotis was overjoyed, as long as he could get those ships, he didn’t care about any business at all!

   Besides, Daqi doesn’t know how many miles away from here, even if they kill their envoy, they don’t know, let alone send troops to crusade.

  …

  Crotis summoned the Daqi envoy in the palace.

  Zhang Beichen and others finally entered the palace of the Ptolemaic Dynasty.

  The buildings here are different from those in Daqi. Daqi mainly uses stone and wood for construction. But here I prefer to use huge stones, and buildings carved or piled up with huge stones can be seen everywhere in the palace.

   When seeing Crotis again, Zhang Beichen found that he was completely different.

  At this time, Crotis was wearing a crown of jewels, a pharaoh’s robe, and a scepter in his hand. A kind of ambition was shining in his eyes.

   “Zhang Beichen, the envoy of the Great Qi, has met Pharaoh.” Zhang Beichen said while standing without saluting.

Seeing that he was rude, Clotis was a little dissatisfied, but when he thought of capturing his fleet, he held back his dissatisfaction, pretended to be enthusiastic, and said, “The envoy has worked hard. These days, the king has to deal with the affairs of the palace. Messenger, don’t mind the messenger.”

  【You made a business request to Pharaoh, and Pharaoh readily agreed, and claimed to hold a large banquet to entertain guests from the East. 】

  …

  Back to the residence, the accompanying envoys were all overjoyed: “Pharaoh agreed to our business request, and our mission has been completed!”

  Zhang Beichen said: “Don’t be too happy, the truth is, it’s not that simple?”

   “Your Excellency, are you worried about fraud?” the subordinate asked.

  Zhang Beichen analyzed: “Although Clotis allowed our ship to stop at the port, he still refused to let our ship dock. This person has greedy eyes, but he is extremely generous. If something abnormal happens, there must be a monster.”

   “Decree that all the soldiers stay on board and don’t disembark at will! Everything is under the command of the truth!”

“yes!”

  Not long after Zhang Beichen’s order was conveyed, someone reported: “My lord, someone is here to visit.”

   “Who?” Zhang Beichen asked.

   “He is from the palace, but he refused to reveal his identity, only saying that the matter is important.”

   “Let’s meet then.” Zhang Beichen arranged a secret room to meet this person.

  The visitor wrapped her whole body in a loose white robe, and when she saw Zhang Beichen, she lifted the veil.

  Zhang Beichen saw that a goddess-like face with three-dimensional and delicate features appeared in front of him.

   Rao is Zhang Beichen who is used to seeing beauties, but still feels bright in front of his eyes.

   “Your Excellency?” Zhang Beichen asked the other party.
