Chapter 61 Oenone, the Wife of Paris
Luo Yin is a man who keeps his word.
So after leaving Agamemnon's barracks, Luo Yin took Polyxena back to his own camp and ordered his nephew Mengstius to move to Mount Ida with 500 soldiers.
Luo Yin drove the chariot pulled by the gods Maxanthus and Balius, and took Polyxena and Chryseins to the palace of Mount Ida first.
On the way to Mount Ida, Polyxena took the initiative to speak to Chryseins who looked uneasy.
"If I remember correctly, you are Chryseins, the daughter of Chryseins, the high priest of Apollo!"
Chryseins nodded and said.
"I remember you too. You are Princess Polyxena, the daughter of Troy King Priam and Queen Hecuba. The barbaric and disrespectful Achilles drove his chariot into the Temple of Apollo, snatched me away from my father, and made me his captive. I didn't expect that such an unfortunate fate would also fall on you."
Hearing Chryseins' words, Polyxena couldn't help but widen her eyes in shock.
"Did Achilles snatch you directly from the Temple of Apollo? How dare he do such a crazy thing that seriously offends the gods?"
The temple is a palace dedicated to the gods by humans.
Everything in the temple, including humans including priests, belongs to the gods.
Luo Yin snatched Chryseins directly from the Temple of Apollo, which was equivalent to Luo Yin snatching a woman belonging to Apollo.
Even if Apollo didn't care about Chryseins, he couldn't tolerate Luo Yin snatching his woman.
After recovering from the shock, Polyxena said to Luo Yin with a worried expression.
"Achilles! You Greeks may not know how powerful Apollo is, so you did something to offend Apollo. Now you have me, please send Chryseins back to the Temple of Apollo in Mysia, and then offer sacrifices to pray for Apollo's forgiveness-"
"Are you worried that I, the enemy of Troyen, will be killed by Apollo?"
Luo Yin interrupted Polyxena and said with a bright smile.
"I just robbed Chryseins now, and next I will rob Brodamia, the daughter of King Bryses of Lyurnassus."
Polyxena's eyes went dark, and she was almost scared to death by Luo Yin's wild words.
"King Bryses is also the priest of Apollo, and his daughter Brodamia is also regarded as the future priestess of Apollo. You robbed two women belonging to Apollo. Even if I am not a priest, I know that Apollo will punish you."
"Even if I don't rob Apollo's priestess, Apollo, this little mouse, and I will become mortal enemies. Since Apollo and I are mortal enemies, what reason do I have to fear Apollo?"
Chryseins suddenly said at this time.
"If the long-range god gets angry, his arrows will take your life."
"This little mouse really likes to sneak attack!"
Luo Yin said with a relaxed smile.
"I am no longer the same person as before. If Apollo dares to challenge me, my anger will burn all the mouse hair on his body."
In Troyen and the surrounding areas, Apollo is a god who is particularly respected.
Chryseins is the future priestess of Apollo, so naturally she will not doubt Apollo's power and majesty.
Although Polyxena did not worship Apollo, she also believed that Apollo was the most powerful god.
Loyin despised and humiliated Apollo so much that they all thought that Loyin would soon be punished by Apollo.
The gods Maxanthus and Balius pulled Loyin's chariot and soon came to Mount Ida and stopped outside the palace where Paris and Oenone lived.
Before the birth of Troy Prince Paris, his half-brother Aesarchus predicted that he would destroy the city of Troy.
After Paris was born, Queen Hecuba asked a loyal servant to throw Paris to Mount Ida to fend for himself.
The loyal servant cleverly realized the queen's good intentions and raised Paris as his adopted son, making Paris a shepherd on Mount Ida.
When Paris was young, he was chosen by Zeus to be the judge of the three goddesses Pallas Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite, responsible for selecting the most beautiful goddess from the three goddesses.
Paris gave the golden apple, which symbolized the most beautiful goddess, to Aphrodite, and was blessed by the goddess of love.
With the blessing of the goddess of love, Aphrodite, although Paris was a humble shepherd, he married the beautiful daughter of the river god, Oenone, when he grew up.
Later, Paris participated in a competition in Troy. Because Priam's son Deinphobos lost the game and wanted to kill Paris, Priam and Hecuba recognized Paris to avoid the tragedy of brothers killing each other.
After Paris became a prince, he did not stay in the palace, but chose to return to Mount Ida to accompany his beloved wife Oenone and his favorite herds.
Because of the prophecy that Paris was born with, King Priam also hoped that Paris could stay away from Troy.
As compensation to Paris, Priam not only gave him the cattle that Paris used to herd, but also built a beautiful palace for Paris and Oenone on Mount Ida.
After Luo Yin brought Polyxena and Chryseins, who were in mixed feelings, into the palace, Oenone, who had learned the news, came to the courtyard with her maid and said to Polyxena enthusiastically.
"Sister Polyxena, I am so happy that you came to visit me. Is this young and handsome prince next to you your future husband?"
Polyxena lowered her head in shame and said.
"Sister Ononee, I'm here to tell you that you can no longer live in this palace."
Ononi was stunned for a moment, then said with a sweet smile.
"Sister Polyxena! Paris and I are not used to living in such a big palace. Moreover, the cows in the cowshed always make noises in the middle of the night, which makes it impossible for me to sleep well. It would be a great good thing for me that you take this palace back."
"Sister Onone, we are not taking back the palace of you and Brother Paris, but we want you and Brother Paris to live in the palace of the royal palace."
Polyxena plucked up the courage to explain to Oenone.
"Now the Greek army of 100,000 has landed on the coast of Troy. When the winter is over, war will break out with our city of Troy. Sister Oenone and brother Paris continue to live in the palace on Mount Ada, and they will definitely be affected by the Greeks. attack."
"The Greeks have landed on the Trojan coast - and how is your brother Paris? My husband - has your brother Paris returned safely?"
"Brother Paris...he..."
Seeing that Polyxena did not dare to tell the truth, Luo Yin said directly.
"Your husband Paris is fine now! He abducted the most beautiful woman in the world - Queen Helen of Sparta in Sparta, and is now hiding with Helen on an island to enjoy their two lives. The Greek coalition forces landed on the coast of Troy , it was because of Paris’ behavior that the war between the two sides was provoked.”
After hearing Luo Yin's words, Oenone's legs softened and she squatted on the snow in the courtyard.
"This is impossible... This is impossible... You must be lying to me! Paris and I are so in love, how could he betray our love and marriage and kidnap other people's wives..."
"Sister Oenone, what Achilles said is true. Now that the palace on Mount Ada has been given to Achilles by my father, I asked the maids to prepare a carriage to take you to the palace—"
"unnecessary!"
Ononee said in a mournful voice like that of Du Juan weeping blood.
"Paris and I fell in love on Mount Ida and became husband and wife on Mount Ida, so I will not leave Mount Ida. I will go back to the cabin where Paris and I were married and wait for Paris to come back to me. .If Paris really betrays our love and marriage——"
Ononye didn't say the next words, but Luo Yin could see that Ononie was obviously on the verge of turning dark.
