Cleopatra's strange smile made Yang Rui's hair stand on end. He would rather face a strong enemy than Cleopatra. After getting along with her for a few days, Yang Rui's feelings had become stronger and stronger. ∈.
Mysterious gift? Yang Rui felt that there must be something fishy about it!
It was already evening. After several days of traveling, Yang Rui and the rest returned to their respective residences to rest after returning to the Egyptian civilization.
Yang Rui had ordered the NPCs in the city to build two large courtyards near the Sky City Lord's Mansion. When the relevant personnel needed to stay in the Sky City, they could be used as residences.
Not long after everyone rested, Yang Rui was practicing the Soaring Dragon Internal Cultivation Technique in his residence when Cleopatra's mysterious gift arrived.
Yang Rui, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You had always lived in a few houses adjacent to a courtyard. Cleopatra's troops and the 300,000 soldiers she had just brought back from the Syrian Plateau were still stationed in the previous barracks.
Cleopatra's gift was a large box. Four soldiers carried it directly to Yang Rui's residence in the center of the courtyard. At the same time, two beautifully dressed maids followed behind.
After entering Yang Rui's residence, the two maids ordered the four soldiers in charge of carrying the box to leave first. After that, they personally prepared to open the big box containing the mysterious gift for Yang Rui. However, Yang Rui waved his hand to stop them.
"What exactly is in the box?"
Yang Rui asked doubtfully.
Although the maids had already explained that it was a mysterious gift from Her Majesty Cleopatra, Yang Rui could not help but have some doubts. Such a big box. The items stored inside should not be small.
However, it was precisely because it was a box. It was difficult for others to guess what was inside. Thinking back to Cleopatra's strange smile at that time, Yang Rui could not help but be a little suspicious. Only then did he ask the two maids.
Of course, now that Yang Rui and Cleopatra VII had the same goal, the "Battle of the Throne" mission was also recognized by the system, so Cleopatra VII would not harm Yang Rui. It was unlikely that she would make a fuss about the mysterious gift.
Yang Rui just felt that this mysterious gift was a little sinister.
"Reporting to Sir Ynete, Her Royal Highness the Queen has instructed us. If you ask about the contents of the mysterious gift in the box, you can open it yourself. We'll take our leave now … "
Originally, it was fine if Yang Rui did not ask. The two maids were going to open the box for Yang Rui, but after asking, the two maids left directly. Yang Rui felt that there must be something wrong, but he could not really see what it was.
After Yang Rui was puzzled for a while, he finally reached out to the big box. Cleopatra should have grasped Yang Rui's curiosity, so she told the two maids that …
"Rumble …"
Yang Rui was already very careful. However, after he carefully opened the wooden box, the item inside was still far beyond Yang Rui's imagination.
The opening of the wooden box was on one side. As soon as Yang Rui opened the side cover, a roll of white woolen satin quickly rolled out. At this time, Yang Rui was standing on the other side of the box and had already avoided the rolling direction, so he did not feel anything unusual.
However, when the map was unrolled, the wool satin quickly unfolded, and a milky white light instantly pierced Yang Rui's eyes. At this moment, Yang Rui was completely stunned!
This was the mysterious gift that Cleopatra gave to Yang Rui – herself! Cleopatra had completely gotten rid of the bondage, completely washed clean! Except for the brown hair that spread out, there were no other colors!
At this moment, Yang Rui instinctively rushed over, and then there was a rustling sound in the whole room …
Until many years later, when he recalled this scene, Yang Rui would still laugh bitterly at himself for a while, and even couldn't help but shake his head in annoyance. This was a secret that only the person involved and Yang Rui knew for a long time …
At that moment, Yang Rui instinctively rushed over, and at the same time, madly operated the Soaring Dragon Inner Force Mantra. He hurriedly wrapped the woolen satin around Cleopatra's body again, and then he pushed with all his strength, and the roll of woolen satin that had just unfolded was instantly rolled back.
Yang Rui used both his hands and feet, until finally he flew up and quickly closed the side cover of the wooden box. Only then did he catch his breath.
"Guards! Return Her Majesty Queen Cleopatra's … mysterious gift! "
As a man, a real player who had seen the world, Yang Rui felt a little exhausted at this moment. Until the two guards outside the room opened the door with a creak, Yang Rui let out a sigh of relief.
"Be careful, this thing is very precious …"
Seeing the two guards carry the big box away, Yang Rui actually felt a little lost. Only now did he remember to instruct the two guards to avoid any accidents midway.
"… Also, pass a message to Her Majesty Queen Cleopatra, thank her for her kindness, but this thing is precious, it's better to leave it to other fated people …"
"Yes!"
The two guards accepted the order and left. The "mysterious gift" finally calmed down, but Yang Rui was disturbed to the point that he couldn't stay calm anymore.
Because of this, Yang Rui also remembered a scene that he saw when he was searching for information. In the historical facts, Cleopatra VII seemed to be like just now, after meeting Caesar of the Roman Empire, she used a similar method to boldly recommend herself and became Caesar's lover in one fell swoop.
Later, Caesar also helped Cleopatra deal with Ptolemy XIII, helping her to completely consolidate her position, and even appointing the son of the two as the successor to the throne and other things that happened after that …
Yang Rui didn't expect that a similar scene would happen to him. Even if he had expected the abnormality of the mysterious gift, he didn't expect things to end up like this!
Yang Rui couldn't help but smile bitterly for a long time, unable to enter the state of cultivation for a long time …
"My warrior Yaruide, sometimes you don't seem to be brave enough …"
The next day, Yang Rui, Zhang Ning, Gao Shun, Guo Jia, and Xu You once again gathered in the small meeting room of Sky City. Cleopatra was also there to discuss and plan the action against Ptolemy XIII of Alexandria.
At this time, Cleopatra was already acting like nothing had happened the previous night. But when the others weren't paying attention, Cleopatra came up and whispered to Yang Rui.
