Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1772 The Queen of Hell (43)

The life of a widow is lonely. Taiyi, who only played Hathor twice after the death of Amenhotep III, wants to give this matter to her son's new queen. After all, she is the biological mother of Amenhotep IV. , even if he took over other "cat-like" concubines from his father's harem.

Without so many rituals and all kinds of women, Taiyi should be a lot cleaner. Sometimes life is not like what philosophers discuss. It is necessary to find out what is the meaning of living, but to solve one problem after another.

When Manchao civil and military and the harem were busy dealing with the transition of the old and new pharaohs, Taiyi took over the diplomatic correspondence. Amenhotep IV did not care about Asian affairs, and the "Queen Dowager" always had to solve them. She wrote to Mitanni The king reassured him, let him continue to maintain friendship with Egypt, don't forget to love the former pharaoh, and maintain the same love for the new pharaoh, and must continue to send friendly missions.

Another thing is to arrange the funeral for the former pharaoh. Although the Egyptians believe that people will be resurrected after death, death is death, and the body that loses the soul will soon rot, and the pharaoh must be mummified as soon as possible.

Now that Amenhotep III has become the incarnation of the sun god, his mummy must be different. After the internal organs are taken out from the king's body, the corpse will be coated with a layer of golden resin. It was collected from all over the vast empire and even abroad, and then the corpses were put in a caustic soda solution.This solution is to be made with Nile water and natural natron from the Natrun Valley in the north and Kabu in the south, meaning the union of Upper and Lower Egypt.

After soaking for 30 days, hemoglobin was filtered out of the body, and the natron solution became a red liquid like amniotic fluid. The monks lifted the pharaoh's body from the solution, as if the body had been reborn, and then it was air-dried. Burning incense all over the house is not only to call God's help, but also to drive away flies.

No matter how brave the flies are, those insects are still disgusting, especially when they crawl on corpses.

There are many little girls who worship heroes, but Tye feels that her life is worthwhile. In the royal family where incest was prevalent, Amenhotep III broke through the tradition and married her, a non-royal and non-noble businessman. Girl, when she was young, she was so happy when she learned that she was chosen as queen, she felt that she was dreaming, and when she grew up a little, she realized that this was arranged by her elder brother, and it was a compromise between the Amon priest group and Pharaoh .

Her son does not intend to compromise with the priests of Amon. He wants to destroy the traces of Amon's existence and establish a new sun god Aten. He needs someone to support him, just like Tye and Amenhotep III Also welcome back the ancient god Osiris.

Perhaps she would still remember the glorious scene at the ceremony, during the daytime ceremony, she was like a real golden goddess, dressed in dazzling clothes, walking in the ceremony queue so gracefully and luxuriously.

Amenhotep III played the role of a competent pharaoh. He had to complete the "hunting", "sacrifice and sacrifice", and "victory" in a decent way. Leaving the name of bravery, he only led the army to fight once in his life, and that was the war against the Nubians in the early days of his succession, although the purpose of the war was apparently to ensure that the transportation line from the Nubian area to the Nile River in Egypt However, everyone in the world knows that the new king will inevitably win a victory to consolidate his position.

Amenhotep III was not perfect, but he brought peace and prosperity to upper and lower Egypt, making the whole of Egypt rich and stable, and Egypt reached its peak under his rule. Since Egypt has that strength, why should it be sent? What about a princess going to Babylon to marry her?

Whether she is a princess in name or not, she will only strengthen the position of the king of Babylon in the hearts of the subjects, and even in the hearts of the Asian countries. It is the power of Babylon that makes Egypt have scruples, which will make Egypt appear "weak". Not what Amenhotep III wanted to see.

After drying, the monks coated the body with a second layer of resin, which was preheated in advance to allow the liquid to flow to every corner and ensure that the pharaoh's limbs were perfectly sealed.

After everything was processed, the pharaoh's mummy was as hard as a stone shell. This was the pharaoh's conscious design, which was different from his plump and round sculpture like a woman.

After completing this step, the monks wrapped him in layers of linen, put him on a pharaoh's outfit made of gold, and put on a golden death mask, and then the pharaoh's body was placed in a golden coffin, and the next step was to prepare for the funeral. , that would require Tay to host with the new pharaoh.

No matter how you play God, people are still people after all. Does anyone know if Tai really loves Amenhotep III?
As time goes by, Tai, who used to be beautiful in the past, will also age day by day, but new beauties from all over the world are constantly being sent into the palace. If Amenhotep III really chose the queen according to the degree of beauty, then Tai Yi has long since been replaced by a new beauty.

Men are like this, they don't have a delicate appearance, they don't bother to understand a woman's soul.

After witnessing the pharaoh's funeral, Tai left the smoky temple.

She knew very well that her son, Amenhotep IV, liked beautiful women just like his father, so the first condition for choosing a new princess was beauty.It is said that in Thebes there is also a branch of women related to the Luna family. They are worshiped as goddesses in Thebes. This "heiress" can be seen, but I just hope that she is not like Anthorpe.

================================================== ==============
The incarnation of the goddess Hathor recognized by the Egyptians is not any queen or princess of the eighteenth dynasty, but Nefertari, the great queen of Ramses II of the No.19 dynasty, that is, the tomb. On the wall she painted her queen playing Senet.

Since Amenhotep III proclaimed himself the god of the sun and the Nile, Hapi, his sculptures have been reused, as if people thought that a god with the power of the sun and water should look like that.

During Ramses II's long reign, there were seven princesses, but his favorite was the "Southern Beauty" Nefertari, who even surpassed the other two Egyptian queens to preside over religious ceremonies.

But this time she sacrificed not Hathor and Osiris, but Min, the god of harvest and fertility, the guardian of desert travelers and children.

When Egyptian boys and girls enter adulthood, they will offer him lettuce and fruits as tributes, and eat them after the gods enjoy them, which symbolizes entering adulthood and is the earliest coming-of-age ceremony in Egypt.His image is usually holding a cane, which represents that he is always guiding the lost traveler.

He is sometimes considered to be the incarnation of Amon, and on the walls of the Lusok Temple there are scenes of Nefertari shaking the fork bell before the gods and participating in the "Min God's Sailboat" celebration.

Every night, after a tiring day, the sun will go to the underworld in a solar boat. There are other ghosts on board who will go to the underworld to be judged.

They used to use rowing boats, and the oars were easily caught by the dead souls in the water. Switching to sails saved this trouble.

Just like dancing when setting up the Jiede Pillar, the pharaoh and the queen should be present to preside over the mast erecting ceremony when the ceremony is held. After the mast is erected, a man will climb to the top of the wooden pole to show respect to Minshen. .

In the history of Egypt, "erecting pillars" is a very solemn thing, and the obelisk cannot be moved easily.After Anthotrop's death, no matter how Thutmose III tried to obliterate the deeds of her female pharaoh, only keeping her history as a queen, he did not destroy the obelisk of Anthotrop, but built it The curtain wall was blocked to block it, but this move allowed those obelisks to stay.

The base of the obelisk in the Concorde Square depicts the process of setting up the pillars with gold paint, which looks very Egyptian.

Amenhotep III built more buildings than Ramses II in his lifetime, but he was not as famous as Ramses II. On the contrary, his daughter-in-law Nefertiti, who had never met, was more famous. Her colorful bust was unearthed Later generations even thought she was Cleopatra VII, Cleopatra VII.

This is a generally accepted concept. Of course, the one who can conquer Caesar is a peerless beauty. Beauty is not only a prerequisite, but the overwhelming visual impact can also make people feel dizzy. .

But how beautiful can a beautiful woman be?Doesn't she have two eyes and one nose?No matter how long she grows, she is a monster.

People focus on the importance of the external and ignore the role of wisdom, but understand that it doesn't make any sense.Contrary to most people's ideas, it is not good for people, especially women. Others don't need your opinion to tell them what is right and what is wrong. The kind of people who know everything are especially annoying.

Sartre felt that anxiety was a good thing and a symbol of awakening. Is philosophy still necessary in universities in the 20th century?What kind of work do you do after graduating from a philosophy major?Probably news publishing, teachers, etc., which are not as convenient and useful as engineering students and engineers.

Some people think that being a screw that can be replaced is a pain, and some people think that being a screw is making a contribution to society. He has changed his original life through his own efforts, which is more useful than those who dream of it.

You feel that you can’t bear to live a step-by-step life, but many people think that is the idea of ​​​​a person who does not follow the rules and is a maverick. You don’t work hard, you have a plan for your future, and you don’t know how to position yourself. Nothing matters, insensitive attitude towards life.

Most of these differences of opinion appear in the quarrels between parents and children. Although they are under the same roof, they are two kinds of people, one is men and women with families, and the other is men and women without families. The natural society of the family was invented, and countless ethics developed around it, to bind free men and women.

During the French Revolution, married men were not conscripted, and unmarried men had nothing. The same was true for the Crusades, which had to solve the problem of noble second sons and illegitimate children.

When single men die on the battlefield, and married men join the army to protect their families, they are also young people of the right age. These people may not have the heart to make a living, but they have the heart to defend their home and country.As long as there are fewer families and more bachelors, there will be more people who reflect on "I don't want to serve dishes all my life".

Like Americans, they will venture out, take risks, take opportunistic opportunities, pursue personal success and the value of life, restless about the status quo, and think wildly all day long.

Many people actually don’t have so much ambition. They are satisfied with getting married and having children with their loved ones. They don’t even want to live in a Haussmann-style apartment in the center of Paris or live in a villa in the picturesque countryside. They prefer to live in a In the suburbs, a duplex building with two bedrooms and two living rooms downstairs is enough, but the Palace of Versailles is uncomfortable.

What they want to let go of is their spouse cheating. Who has time to care about how the upper class controls the world?
If people are forced to be unable to start a family and settle down, then find a goal, and everyone will work hard towards that goal. Single people don't take care of it, and bringing their families and children will be a drag instead.

In the past, the French aristocrats robbed the taxes of their territories and went to Paris to enjoy themselves, but now they plundered the wealth of city residents to enjoy themselves. Can hide in country property.

Fortunately, the problem of the homeless in France is not as serious as that in the United States. As long as the Minister of the Interior who has been trained in the United States keeps his mouth shut and does not say "clearing the dregs of society", the people will still have room for relaxation if they are not angered.

American justice associates "foreclosure" with "eviction", which means that people who buy houses cannot pay back their loans, and if they are sentenced to foreclosure by the court, they will lose their homes and be evicted from their houses. Men, women and children The government doesn't care about living on the streets, families are torn apart, and unfree men and women become free people again.

Since the 20s, the United States has begun to market its prisons. Criminals are caught in prisons and given back to them. After all, prisons are funded by the federal government. Taxpayers’ money is a stable income, and shelters rely on kindness. , The income is unstable, God knows what the conditions are.

There is violence in prisons, which can force prisoners to obey, but shelters do not. So many rules and regulations may not be as happy as wandering on the streets, and the problem of homelessness is even more serious.

Homeless people everywhere on the streets are detrimental to the appearance of the city, but the judge has given justice and mercy to the bank, and he has to bear the result. The United States of America inherited the common law of the United Kingdom, but did not absorb the law of equity. The equity of wife abandonment is an example.

Cicero felt that the real law is nature and harmony, impartial reason, and man is "freedom with order". Later, Antony's soldiers cut off his head and hands and put them on the rostrum where he once gave a speech , while stunned the inhabitants of the city of Rome, perhaps he could tell them other truths.

Anthony, who once treated Cicero courteously, did not intend to kill him, he just wanted Cicero to be exiled, and Octavian tried to remove Cicero from the list of participants who punished the assassination of Caesar, but who called Cicero What about Luo being the leader of the rebellion against Caesar and trying to restore constitutionalism after Caesar's death?
The entire Roman law permeates a concept of justice that is not simply determined artificially. Even if Rome declined, the legal system of Zadini was also influenced by the principle of natural law. That is to say, if the temporary masters of the country do not have justice, they acts against the laws of nature, and a just and rational person has no moral duty to obey them.

There is also the castle law in the United States. Home is his castle. When someone robs you, you can justifiably use heavy weapons to defend yourself, and you are not obliged to retreat first.

Those "clever" bankers got into so much trouble that even murder was a minor one.

When the birth rate of the ruling class declines, the total birth rate rises, which is the contribution of immigrants. In the past, when the Puritans first arrived in the New World, a family of 6 children was normal. The population of the Indians decreased due to various reasons, and the land was occupied by immigrants.

Raising a person with values ​​of right and wrong is tiring and takes time and energy. It is more difficult than printing money. What's more, teenagers are not good at discerning and imitating. This is their opportunity to learn and instill a lot of consumerism in their minds. It is easy to cultivate consumers, but it does not cultivate the power of their desires beyond rational control, and their behavior cannot be controlled.

They will lie and pretend to be of age, even they will be controlled by adults to lie like the girls in Salem, there will be more and more Ponzi schemes, the brains of "old people" have degenerated, how can it be counted them.

Maybe you think you have met a "real goddess" with both beauty and wisdom, but in fact it is a woman like Mrs. Zabini who has been married seven times. Cormalfort talks about how she gets rich every time she becomes a widow.

Ramses II also promoted education. As for what to teach in class, it may be the same as the teachers in the Napoleon era, teaching children to obey the emperor (Pharaoh)'s orders and fight bravely when they grow up.

The people at that time left a lot of papyrus scrolls, which is a reflection of their high reading and writing skills, but the content is not very "harmonious". Chasing and beating his stepfather yelling "I'm going to kill the old thing tonight!"

No matter how you look at it, it was the scoundrel Paneb who was guilty. In fact, it was the stepfather who beat Paneb's biological mother, and he wanted to avenge his mother.

It is easy for people to preconceive their own positions and opinions, and think that they are right, and hope that the other party will accept their opinions.

There is nothing wrong with the saying that hard work can lead to success. People cannot pray to God and hope that a big pie will fall on their heads. There is a story in the New Testament of "The Narrow Gate of Heaven". Those who work get as much as those who only work for an hour. In the future, everyone will go to work at the landlord's house very late.

It is also wrong to force others to "awaken" and make them anxious and confused. Every soul has its own way to go. Since the original intention of "awakened people" is to want others to be good, why should they deprive others of the right to happiness?
You see others as unhappy, and others see you as unhappy.

You pursue spiritual abundance, but you lack material resources. The 20th century is no longer the Middle Ages when you were proud of being poor.

The power of knowledge must ultimately be realized as a goal, and liberal arts is not as good as science and engineering in this respect.The research results of science and engineering can bring about technological and industrial revolutions, but what are the results of liberal arts research?

Maybe there is no absolute harmony between people, completely peaceful coexistence, but like members of the Order of the Phoenix, they can eliminate the obvious boundaries between classes, while not excluding differences and respecting each other. Lupine got along, even though they were so rich that they could buy a "supercar" class Firebolt as a Christmas present for their godson at any time, and Remus didn't even have a permanent residence or a job.

During Prohibition, speakeasies also became a place for fusion, where everyone came to have fun.

If Pharaoh doesn’t launch wars of aggression, the common people don’t have to die. If he wants to hold rituals, let him do it. He also built so many buildings. Everyone has work to do. Consumption will increase without stimulation, and the food on people’s tables will become rich and diverse. many.

On the contrary, Ramses II, under his rule, Egypt's economic recession has already appeared. The relics left by him win by quantity and volume, rather than exquisite craftsmanship and quality.

To raise such a huge harem, and to raise an army to fight everywhere, of course it costs a lot of money, so I have to save it from other aspects. Fortunately, Ramses II is not so picky and unreasonable, and his royal title can be engraved on the wall. Now, there is no need to be so troublesome and laborious in embossing.

His son of Ra was Amon's Beloved, Ruler of the World.

It seems that he has Nefertari, the incarnation of Hathor, and he doesn't want to be Hathor's love as much as Amenerhat I.

It was also 30 years after he wore the crown. Amenenhardt I was assassinated by his guards. In this way, it is indeed time to celebrate 30 years. Fortunately, Amenhotep III survived safely and was not killed. The assassin sent by the enraged Babylonian king performed the ritual assassination.The sacrifice was not in vain, he and his country were protected by Osiris.
