The Fall of the Golden Empire, Volume 1: Bloody Sunset by Zhang Baotong
Princess Parlia sent people to the Prince's Palace compound on Fugui Street to invite Prince Quiskis, the commander of the Quito army. Kiskis is nearly fifty years old, of medium height, tall and strong, solemn and majestic, with a noble expression and full of heroism. He wears a thin dress woven from fine camel wool. Riding in an exquisite and compact sedan chair, surrounded by more than 20 guards, he was carried into Ziyuan Pavilion by eight bearers. He came out of the sedan chair and looked at the quiet, beautiful, neat and elegant courtyards and houses, and couldn't help but feel a little confused and uneasy. There was even an inexplicable and extreme panic, and a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. This is the harem residence of the king's favorite concubine. It is a forbidden area for men. It is absolutely forbidden to enter without the king's permission. Otherwise, you will be guilty of beheading and the nine tribes will be killed.
Originally, Prince Kiskis insisted on not coming here, but the visitor said that Princess Palia had very important matters to discuss with him, and the princess's exquisite and compact sedan chair and a large group of guards were parked there. in front of the door. Therefore, he hesitated a little and stepped onto the sedan chair tremblingly. He didn't know what the plot the princess was setting for him. He was carried out of Fugui Street by the sedan bearers as if he was rushing to the execution ground.
Prince Quiskis is not only a Campac Inca, one of the few high-ranking nobles after the Inca King of Sapa, but he is also the half-brother of the Inca King Huayna Capac. King Parker conquered the east and west, and went through life and death. Not only was he superb in martial arts, but he also had unparalleled achievements. He made great achievements in conquering various tribes and expanding the territory of the Inca Empire. Therefore, he is not only in charge of the political affairs of the Kingdom of Quito, but also the commander of the Quito army. He often entered the palace to discuss politics and discuss military affairs with the king, but he had never been to this elegant and comfortable Ziyuan Pavilion, because except for the Inca king and the prince, no other men were allowed to visit here.
When the singer Xiuwei saw Kiskis coming out of the sedan, she bowed to him respectfully and said, "Master, please come with me."
Kiskis felt his legs were a little weak, but he still held on and followed the young and beautiful girl towards the large house. When she came to the house, Xiuwei opened the door and said to Kiskis, "Master, please come in."
Kiskis entered the room and saw a small table in the middle of the room through the light outside the door. There is a plate of fresh grapes and a plate of fresh peaches on the table. Of course he knew that these fruits were transported through translators from producing areas thousands of miles away. In addition, there is a large clay pot of the finest wine and two exquisite clay cups on the table. This made Kiskis feel relieved. However, he still wondered why Princess Palia invited him to drink?
At this time, Princess Palia came out of the inner room, walked quickly to Prince Kiskis, and said to the prince with joy and in a coquettish tone, "It is a rare honor for the assistant minister to come here. "
Kiskis looked towards the princess and saw that the princess was wearing a purple and red dress. The dress was embroidered with bright pink Kantu flowers, and there were several rainbows flying in the wind among the flowers. The princess wore an emerald necklace around her neck and exquisite gold rings on her earlobes. There are also a string of ancient gemstones and jade beads on each of the two white arms. Her hair was specially braided and decorated, neatly gathered behind her ears with a curved clip, and then hung loosely behind her back. The princess, who had been carefully retouched and renewed, suddenly looked much younger, more charming and noble. Coupled with her coquettish voice and flirtatious look, the lustful prince suddenly lost control.
Among the Inca nobles, they often like to bring the beautiful women or girls they like to show off to their friends. Sometimes, when they see that their friends like their women or girls, they will give the women or girls they like to their friends. , to enhance friendship with friends. Sometimes, he will dedicate the woman or girl he likes to his boss in order to please his boss and support him. Sometimes they would even be given to their subordinates so that they could serve loyally and bravely for themselves during the war. As the commander of the Quito army, whenever he encounters such an occasion, he will not hide his love for other women or girls, and will even directly offer to exchange his own women or girls for the women or girls he likes. If one cannot do what he wants, he will exchange three against one, five against one, or ten against one.
Like the Inca king, the Inca nobles also had a wife who was married by a clear matchmaker, and this wife could not be replaced casually. In addition, other women, although they are also called wives, are actually concubines. In the Inca Empire, ordinary people could only have one wife, but the village chief could have seven wives. If he was a chief or a high-ranking official, he could have more wives. However, the families of princes and nobles had groups of wives and concubines, and there could be dozens of wives and concubines. In addition to numerous wives and concubines, families holding official positions also had a large number of maids or domestic slaves. And if any of these maids are favored by the master, they can also be taken as wives and concubines. As the commander of the Quito army and the auxiliary minister of the Quito palace, Prince Quischis had at least two to three hundred wives, concubines, and women in his home. Some of them were married by matchmakers, some were captured in battles, and some were rewarded by the Incas. , some are gifts from others, and some are exchanged with others. It can be said that his backyard is like a small harem. However, looking at the extremely talented and elegant Princess Palia in front of him, he felt that all the women in the entire backyard of his family were not worth a Princess Palia.
Back then, when Kiskis led his troops to desperately capture the Quito Palace, he wanted to take possession of the beautiful princess of the Quito King after conquering the palace. However, when he captured the palace, he received an order from the Inca King. No one was allowed to enter the palace without the king's order. Therefore, the world-famous beautiful princess was taken away by the Inca King. After that, he had the opportunity to meet Palia several times. Twice the Inca king invited them to drink, and Palia poured wine for everyone. Twice, Palia danced for them. However, every time he saw her, he lamented that he could not have this rare beauty, and even hated that he could not become the Inca King, otherwise, this beauty would become his princess.
Now the beauty was before him, and she was meeting him alone. She dressed herself up so beautifully, as if she was expressing some kind of affection to him. But this made him unable to get excited, because this occasion was too confusing and worrying. He humbly said to the princess, "I wonder what the princess wants to discuss? Do you insist that I come to this adventurous place? If the king finds out, I will lose my head!"
Princess Palia pretended to be mysterious and said, "I invite the prince to come. Naturally, we have something important to discuss. The prince is worried that the king is now at the Usuyak Lake." After saying that, she closed the door of the room and put the table on the table. The oil lamp above was lit.
In the dark and quiet room, the oil lamp exudes a dreamlike light. The two sat opposite each other, silent for a moment. The beautiful and noble Princess of Inca seems to have returned to her youthful, charming and coquettish girlhood. She lowered her eyebrows slightly and raised her eyes, smiling broadly, showing off a coquettish and seductive attitude. I thought this would make Prince Kiskis relax and bolder, but I didn't expect that it made the prince feel at a loss. Because authentic Inka women pay special attention to court etiquette and are very disciplined and serious about matters between men and women. Because the law of King Inka stipulates that the princess who commits adultery should be buried alive, and the male offender must not only be burned to death, but also the nine tribes must be exterminated, leaving no chickens or dogs. But Princess Paria was originally a princess of the Kingdom of Quito, and Quito women are not only charming in appearance, but also wild in temperament. They use coquettishness and debauchery as a display of their own charm, and at the same time, they are also an expression of love and closeness to men.
Although Prince Kiskis has always been infatuated with Princess Palia, he dare not have any inappropriate thoughts about her. Because Princess Paria is the beloved concubine of the sacred Inca King, and the purity of the Inca Princess is not allowed to be offended or defiled by anyone, otherwise it will be a death penalty. So, he asked the princess with a panicked and confused look, "Since the princess has something to discuss, please speak frankly."
The princess smiled sweetly and said, "Actually, there is nothing important. I am alone in the palace and feel lonely. I would like to invite the assistant ministers to come and drink with me and have fun." After saying that, she affectionately kissed her with one hand. He grabbed the prince's hand and handed a filled wine glass to the prince's other hand.
Kiskis didn't have any ill intentions at first, but when the princess drank wine and held her hand tightly like this, his calm heart soon began to surge, and he became bolder. Seeing the gorgeous and beautiful Princess Palia so closely, I couldn't help but feel excited and excited. He took the wine glass from the princess's hand as if in a dream, but his other hand involuntarily grabbed the princess's hand and couldn't bear to let go. Yes, when he was with his beloved beauty, he was already drunk before he even drank.
Princess Palia did not break away from the hand tightly held by Prince Kiskis. Instead, she picked up another wine glass with her other hand, clinked the glasses with Prince Kiskis, and then, He drank a large glass of wine in one gulp. Then, the princess put the cup on the table, filled it with wine, and drank with Prince Kiskis. In the Inca country, women drink alcohol as boldly and cheerfully as men, and they also like to get drunk before resting.
The two of them exchanged glasses, and after drinking several large glasses of wine, they both became a little tipsy. In the Inca aristocratic circle, relatives, friends or brothers and sisters often drank and had fun, leading to adultery. Therefore, in this kind of situation, it is easy for people to be impulsive and act rashly. The somewhat drunk Prince of Kiskis seemed to have forgotten the identities of himself and Princess Palia. He just thought he was having fun with a beloved woman or his concubine, so he pulled Princess Palia with him. in his arms.
