Synopsis

Thousands of years ago, on the bank of the Nile River, the setting sun was like blood, the wind cleared away the dust, and I listened to the soft singing of papyrus, a love song that continues to this day. In 330 AD, the ancient Roman emperor Theodosius the Great forcibly implemented Christianity. In the province of Syria, the religion and culture of ancient Egypt were in danger. The Bible-reading priests who had no way out, in order to preserve their incense, came to China via the ancient silk road, changed their surname to Situ, and took root. Today, Situ Dan, a descendant of the Situ family and an archaeological genius, received an invitation from the Egyptian archaeological team and unexpectedly embarked on her return home. In the unknown royal tomb, Situ Dan felt an inexplicable call and fell into a coma. However, his spirit traveled to ancient Egypt and became the sister of Pharaoh Zuosei, a wise king. Egypt, under the rule of King Djoser, was at a critical moment when its neighboring country Canaan conspired to invade. Before the troops arrived, the beauty took the lead. The charming princess of Canaan, the cold-as-iron Pharaoh, the reckless and stubborn Situ Dan, the entanglement across time and space is inseparable. The helplessness when love turns from strong to weak, the melancholy struggle of a hero at the end of his life, the splendor and conspiracy of the ancient Egyptian palace, the secrets hidden in the first pyramid, the blood and fire on the banks of the Nile, love and hate, life and death, traveling through time and space, just look at the tears formed by the convergence of the Nile.

Reader comments

"Whoever drinks the water of the Nile will return to Egypt" This love that spanned a thousand years made Nancy, a rigorous person who could think of all kinds of accidents in advance, never think of the final outcome, unexpected love, and unexpected ending.

The writing is impeccable. The description of the environment is as beautiful as the literary works that appear in the reading comprehension questions. I just feel that the heroine cannot live without Zose. A very persistent and somewhat missionary interpreter of ancient Egyptian history.

So sad, my heart is shaken by their story spanning thousands of years. What is love? I once stubbornly thought that the male and female protagonists should be pure, and the female protagonist should remain calm. After being hurt again and again, I would even blame Nancy for always choosing to forgive as soon as she saw him. But in retrospect, everyone is human, and they can never be calm. As human beings, they can never escape love, hate, and obsession. I will die for you and live for you. A heart that beats for you even if it spans a thousand years. Love exists with the flow of the Nile.

I'm not old yet. Just read the first chapter. Why is it the same as before in "The Pharaoh's Beloved"? What is the relationship between the two? [What]

The ending is not happy. Why can't he come through the coffin and meet each other after a thousand years?

The beautiful language makes people feel immersed in the situation, and the feeling of desolation and desolation comes naturally. The story is touching and can't help but shed tears. After reading it, I feel that I have endless aftertaste and I am convinced. Excellent work!

The plot of this book is so exciting! The heroine's time travel setting is very novel, and her experience in ancient Egypt also made me feel the charm of that era. The characters in the book are all very unique. The pharaoh's decisiveness and cruelty, and the heroine's recklessness and stubbornness are all impressive. Moreover, the love that spans thousands of years is also very touching, making people sigh for their fate. It is recommended that you also read this book, you will definitely have a different feeling!

Good looking It's quite sad. Two people who are not in the same time and space fall in love and can't be together in the end. To be honest, it makes me feel disappointed. I like it [crying]
