[Greek mythology] Queen of the gods

The gods heard the sound and looked towards the door, only to see the two goddesses, who were usually radiant in the sun, rushing anxiously between them.Seeing that Phoebe couldn't say a word when she saw Leto, she didn't know what happened.

But this matter, Leto has no advantage in terms of emotion and reason, Phoebe has to let go of her self-esteem as a daughter of Gaia like her daughter, and slowly kneel on the smooth marble floor like Leto , winding her long white dress, begging the gloomy God King in front of her, "Dear Zeus, please see that she is your cousin..." Le Toben wanted to mention that Leto was also Zeus's former "lover", but in a blink of an eye, thinking that this would only make the god king even more angry, she immediately skipped this sentence, "Let her go, I am willing to do it for her." Sin bears all punishment."

Also as a mother's plea, Hera felt that this Phoebe was much more pleasing to the eye than Leto just now, maybe her reasons were justified, but it was more likely that Phoebe was not annoying her now!

Sure enough, Zeus looked like he wanted to get angry but couldn't get it out. He must have fully felt Hera's feeling of being so annoyed by Leto just now. next act.

What's more, Rhea, who has always been unclear, is involved in it. I'm afraid that Zeus will not be overwhelmed. This drama will not be so easy to end.

Sure enough, Rhea saw Phoebe so sad, and saw Leto pitifully looking at her sister who should be as noble as herself. Rhea's sympathy really overflowed, and she looked at the girl in front of her. Phoebe said: "Noble goddess of light, why are you here?" Zeus knew what his unclear mother goddess wanted to do when he heard Rhea's words, but before he could stop the words, Rhea Ya continued to say to Phoebe: "Take Leto and drive to that carriage full of darkness in the world." Apparently, Rhea helped Phoebe and the others find a step down.

But now that Leto can't say a word like this, how can Phoebe take her away like this?

To be honest, the curse that Leto cast was nothing more than a trick to Phoebe. It was only because of the face of the caster that Phoebe dared not remove the curse for her precious daughter.

Fortunately, Rhea was so considerate for the first time. She frowned slightly, shook her head and said: "If people see the Goddess of the Night who can't speak, their respect for God will be greatly reduced in the future. As soon as the words fell, Rhea touched her thin white fingers on Rhea's forehead, and after a while, Leto's extremely weak voice was heard again.

When Phoebe saw her, she immediately thanked Rhea from the bottom of her heart: "Thank you, my dear sister." She was only able to speak after seeing Leto, as if she was very dissatisfied with Zeus who cast such a harsh spell on her, and wanted to say something When something happened, Phoebe immediately scolded, "Leto, who do you want to attack with your groundless words?"

Leto saw that the mother goddess who was always gentle and kind to him reprimanded him like this, so he had no choice but to bite his lips and stay quietly aside, but the unyielding in her eyes never diminished because of Phoebe's reprimand.

Seeing that Rhea and Phoebe wanted to make this matter big and small, Hera, who was watching the play, immediately smiled, thinking that it was not so easy, otherwise how could I feel sorry for being annoyed and wasted by Leto time?

It is estimated that Zeus is not willing to let this matter go lightly, just looking at his brows that have not opened for a long time, it is clear that he does not want to follow Rhea's wish at all.

"Dear Goddess of Light, do you think Leto can walk out of my palace like this without any punishment?" Hera smiled and looked at Phoebe, who was completely offended by the red-eyed male god's smile. Han, but for the sake of her hapless daughter, Phoebe also had to say in front of this junior: "Noble son of Cronus, I understand that Leto's recklessness makes you quite embarrassed, and I promise you on her behalf." , Leto will not come to trouble you any more."

The words were vague and vague, and there was no specific solution. Hera would not just respond like this, "Oh? Why can't she bother me?"

"This..." Phoebe didn't want to say the answer bluntly. The only way to keep Hera from worrying is to never let Leto meet Hera. Si, as the saying goes, look down and see up, how can Hera not be bothered?

It is inevitable that one of the gods will never be in Olympus, but Hera can never be that god!

Then there is only Leto...

Thinking of this, Phoebe pressed her pale lips tightly until there was no blood left, and she never said what they knew each other well. She just wanted to delay as long as possible, but soon It's a pity that Zeus completely destroyed her little selfishness.

"Leto, you are not allowed to step into Olympus from now on."

Zeus's words undoubtedly hit Phoebe's heart hard like a heavy hammer. Phoebe blinked her tearful eyes and said in great pain: "Dear God King, Leto has always been from Olympus. Set off to bring the night to mankind, but according to your words..." Phoebe didn't finish her sentence, leaving Zeus to think about the second half of the sentence.

But it was obvious that Zeus had already understood the selfishness of the goddess of light, and he replied impatiently: "Couldn't Leto start from other places besides Olympus?" The priesthood entrusted is already regarded as his mother's face, and let the mother and daughter go.

In the past, only Phoebe mocked Rhea for being brainless, but now she is as brainless as Rhea, and she even wants to brave Zeus' anger to fight for the lightest punishment for her only remaining daughter, But Rhea put her hands on her slender shoulders and said meaningfully: "Sister, I believe this is the best result."

However, Artemis and Apollo couldn't bear Leto to be punished more severely, so they said to Phoebe and Leto: "Please, the two respected goddesses, can accept such magnanimous treatment from Father God." See Sister Sun and Moon Brothers said the same thing, Phoebe and Leto were not dull-witted guys, so they had to agree reluctantly, and Phoebe also hurriedly took Leto to drive the carriage to the world, fearing that Zeus would go back to the world in a flash. Changed my mind.

The moment they went out, the gods heard Leto's desolate cry, and were full of resentment.

It seems to be declaring to the gods inside, "I will come back!"

However, Hera yawned boredly when she saw that the matter ended so smoothly, but the tense expressions of the other gods except Rhea still did not ease down, only because of the "cause" - Hephaes Toss is still here, plus Leto's accusing words, no one can just let it go like a breeze.

But someone's meddling turned this seemingly small incident into a storm.

In fact, Rhea saw the ugly little one when she entered the door, but at that time she wanted to help Phoebe intercede for Leto, so she didn't have the time to ask about the little one's origin.

Seeing him shyly hiding behind Demeter's skirt, Rhea remembered the little squirrels she had seen when she was a young girl who liked to hide behind trees, couldn't help but smile absently, and asked Demeter: "Could it be you and Poseidon..." Before finishing speaking, Rhea sensed that something was wrong, because the strange red hair on the little guy pierced into Rhea like Zeus Azure eyes.

The smile on the corner of Rhea's mouth was gone, and what was replaced by deep thought.

It is true that Rhea is not good at thinking, but it does not mean that she cannot think.

She clearly felt that the ugly little guy was of pure Kronos blood, that is to say, only the children of Kronos could give birth to this little guy, and he was obviously not Poseidon and Germany. Myrtle's child.

One of them might be Hera...

It's easy for Rhea to think of this, but the other parent of the little guy is...

Hestia?Absolutely impossible, this is the goddess who promised lifelong chastity to Styx early on, so only Hades and...

Rhea already had the answer in her heart, but she didn't want to admit it, because it seemed so unbelievable.What's more, Hera and Zeus seem so inconsistent, how could such a thing happen?

Seeing that Rhea's originally pure face was so unpredictable now, Zeus understood, but he didn't want to say anything more.

Some things, as long as they don't tell the truth, anyone can continue to live and dream on Olympus as usual.

And Rhea also thought like Zeus. It seems that their mother and son couldn't help but look the same, and now even their thoughts began to overlap.

But the child couldn't be ignored, Rhea immediately took the little guy's little hand and said: "Whose child is this? It looks quite similar to Hera, especially the hair is so fiery red What about Yan!" Rhea knew that one of the father gods must be recognized by Hera, and Hera admitted it as she wished: "This is exactly my child!"

"No wonder." Rhea stroked the little guy's sharp hair like a hedgehog meaningfully, then looked at Demeter with a smile and asked, "Did you bring Demeter back? "

Demeter seemed to be still thinking about the scuffle just now, and she suddenly didn't pay attention to Rhea's question. She recovered after being pulled by the corner of her skirt by Persephone, and forced a smile on the corner of her mouth, "Yes .” As for the extra words, she didn’t say much, because she subconsciously knew that the extra words might cause Hera a lot of trouble.

Even though she really wanted to see Zeus deflated, she had to endure the momentary anger.

Rhea pulled Hephaestus out from behind Demeter, took his little hand, and then brought him to Hera and said: "Although Demeter brought him back for some reason , but don’t get too caught up in the past, after all, now is the most important thing, isn’t it?” Rhea said in a high-sounding manner, which made Hera take a good look at the mother goddess who was often offline in front of her, Who said that Rhea couldn't speak, but these words put the blame on herself.

And Rhea seemed to know how Hera was planning to fight back against her, and said without giving Hera a chance to speak: "It seems that Hera's palace is going to have more children." She was going to ask the surrounding maids to bring Hephaisto When Si went to the room to freshen up, Hera replied abruptly, "You are right, my little palace has to squeeze so many little devils, I really don't even have room for myself." gone."

Hearing this, not only Rhea frowned deeply, but even Demeter's brown eyes flashed a hint of embarrassment. Could it be that Hera didn't intend to recognize Hephaestus?

The sensitive Hephaestus also realized something, and looked at the red-haired male god in front of him who seemed to be his father in embarrassment, wondering if his ugliness disgusted the red-haired male god deeply I don't want to go back to myself.

But unexpectedly, Zeus' words solved the problem in front of him.

"Indeed, it's estimated that Hera doesn't have more energy to take care of this child." Zeus looked at Hephaestus with a complicated look in his beautiful blue eyes, but he finally said, "I can tell the difference." Take some time to look after the child."

These words are more high-sounding than Rhea's. It seems that the saying that blue is better than blue is true.

It's a pity that what was even more unexpected was that Hephaestus' words posed a problem for the gods present.

"I don't want to stay in Olympus, is that okay?"
