The loud cry still echoed in the temple. Even if he was held in his father's hand, little "Shaokang" had no intention of compromising. He wrinkled his little face, opened his mouth wide, waved his hands and feet vigorously, and let out clear and loud cries one after another.
call.
"Wow! Wow!..."
Shulot was very interested. He looked at his crying son for a while, and felt a strange feeling in his heart. It was completely different from the first time he became a father. In his eyes, there was a bit of happiness about the continuation of blood, and there were two
Seeing the baby's love, I feel a little proud to be a father... and a little bit of inexplicable scrutiny and consideration. After all, this is a son who is likely to inherit the family business and accept enfeoffment!
"Haha! This little guy really has a tiger-like head, thick legs and thick arms, so big!...Huh? The sides of the head are a little elongated, it looks like...it looks like a Mayan?!"
Speaking of "Maya", Shulot's eyes moved and he had some vague thoughts. He didn't know where the old militia's exploration fleet was and when it would return...
After thinking for a while, he put his son down and handed it into the hands of the priest Itoya. The elderly priestess gently and skillfully coaxed the little "Shaokang" to sleep in two strokes. And the loud voice
The crying finally stopped.
"Your Highness, this is really a strong baby boy! He is blessed by the God of War!..."
Priest Itoya smiled and spoke auspicious words. Shulot thought for a while and looked at the elderly priestess with sharp eyes.
"Priest Yitoya, you know that this child's identity is somewhat special."
Shulot pondered and talked about his thoughts. At the same time, he was also arranging the fate and future of the female priests in the other party's anxious expression.
"This child was not born of Alyssa. I will not let him have access to the inheritance rights of the alliance. But I also will not allow him to lose his life inexplicably... After all, this is my son!"
Having said this, Shulot's expression became calm. He had walked away from his father's excitement and once again transformed into a calm and steady king.
"So, Priest Itoya. From now on, you will leave the alliance's priesthood and join the Kingdom of the Lake. I will help you handle these procedures. And the goddess temple you will be sitting in will be in Patzcuaro.
In the mountains southwest of the city. It is secluded and remote and not open to outsiders. It is a sanctuary that protects the growth of children!"
"When Naxiu recovers a little and the child grows up, I will arrange personal guards to send them both back to the Lake Kingdom. And the priestesses in the temple will also go with them to take care of my woman.
and son!...”
"Ah! This...Your Highness...I..."
Hearing this, Priest Itoya had a bitter look on his face. She looked at His Highness's solemn expression and knew that she had no right to refuse. However, the risks that might be hidden in this really made her shudder. The inheritance of the Mexica royal family has always been
It was a bloody storm. And there were always a lot of royal baby boys who died inexplicably.
"The Lord God bless you, don't worry! There will be special secret guards in the Patzcuaro Lake area to protect you."
Having said this, Shulot paused, lowered his head, and bowed formally to the elder Priest Itoya.
"Priestess Itoya! Naxiu's care and the child's health are all entrusted to you!...I swear in the name of my ancestors that I will give you the rewards you deserve!"
Seeing His Highness's salute, Priest Itoya trembled all over, and even his legs felt a little weak. Now that he received His Highness's salute, he would really have to pay for it with his life!...
"Why!..."
After a while, Priest Itoya sighed deeply and bowed his head in return.
"Your Highness Shulot... I will follow your will! I will use my life to ensure the health of this baby... Witness the Lord God!"
"Okay! The Lord God is witness!"
A satisfied smile appeared on Shulot's face. He pondered for a moment, then pointed to the forceps on the side and gave instructions to Priest Itoya.
"Priest Yitoya, after today's delivery, you should also realize the significance of this divinely inspired holy object in saving difficult childbirths!..."
"Your Highness Shulot, there is no doubt that this is a sacred object that can help with childbirth and can save tens of thousands of Alliance people!"
Hearing such a high praise, Shulot smiled again. He nodded and gave another order.
"The revelations given by the gods are always vague. I only remember the general appearance of this forceps, and the improvement of its specific application has yet to be improved by the real midwifery priest... Itoya, the chief priest, can improve the forceps.
Over to you!"
"I will send you two more craftsmen to provide you with enough materials. After the initial improvement, I will ask the army painters to draw detailed drawings, and send the useful finished products to the Alliance and the Divine Enlightenment Institute in the capital.
.From now on, forceps will be officially promoted throughout the world in the name of the Divine Enlightenment Institute!"
"Promoting forceps is a major event with countless lives! Priest Itoya, your name will also be added to the list of developers along with the craftsmen who made it, and will be recorded in the epic together!..."
"...Thank you, Your Highness Shulot! I will perfect this sacred object as soon as possible to make it more suitable for use during midwifery..."
Priest Itoya looked solemn and held the forceps in her hands, as if she were really facing the holy object of God. Then she lowered her head slightly and whispered.
"As for adding my name to the directory of R&D personnel... please don't rush it! Right now, I just want to be as silent as possible like a shadow in the night. Please report to the alliance, I and
The priest apprentices in the temple were all attacked by the remnants of Tlaxcala when they went out to collect medicine, and their lives and deaths were uncertain..."
"Hmm? Priest Itoya..."
Hearing this, Xiulote raised his brows, and after thinking for a moment, he understood. He took a deep look at Priest Itoya, and was really a little surprised.
“I am really amazed by your choice!”
"Your Highness, this is an unpredictable fate that befalls mortals. Mortals have to accept it and be cautious..."
Priest Itoya smiled and responded meaningfully. Then, she lowered her head again and prayed respectfully.
"Your Highness, I also believe in you. I believe that you are really inspired by God and blessed by God! And my days of being cautious will be worth it in the end. You will definitely not let this child grow old invisible.
...The supreme sun will eventually come, and the shadows of the night will fade away and appear under the sun!"
Hearing such words, the guard captain Ekart finally raised his head and carefully looked at the elderly and cautious Priest Itoya in front of him. Shulot pondered for a long time before nodding again. He repeated his previous promise.
, but the meaning is completely different.
"Priestess Itoya, I am very happy that you can join the Kingdom of the Lake and become a goddess priest in the Holy City!...I swear in the name of my ancestors that I will give you the rewards you deserve! Witness the Lord God!"
"Praise the Lord God! Praise you too, Your Highness!"
After the solemn prayer, the scene in the temple came to an end. The weak Naxiu was still sleeping, but the strong Shaokang was awakened by the prayer and cried loudly.
"Wow! Wow!..."
At the door of the temple, Shulot stopped. He did not look back, but listened to his son's cry and sighed softly.
"Huh! Now that the matter has come to this, what could be worse? Even though I'm sorry, I can't give in. I can only ask her to be forgiven by my...Lord God!"
After saying that, the young king strode away without stopping. The camp was busy with military affairs and the army was about to go on an expedition, but he had no time to rest.
