Reversing Greek Mythology

As long as a father truly loves his daughter, he will not let his precious daughter become a concubine without status, so Eurytus's reaction was completely expected.

Luo Yin looked at Eurytus with a smile and said.

"Since Hercules' threat can prevent Yin'ele from marrying until now. Then I can also threaten Yin'ele so that she can't marry a man other than me. King Eurytus! After refusing Before marrying Yin Ele to me, you really should ask Yin Ele what she thinks and see if she is willing to be my concubine. Don't forget that it was because you held a marriage proposal competition for Yin Ele without authorization in the past. As a result, Yin'ele was targeted by Hercules."

"you--"

When Luo Yin mentioned this past incident, Eurytus glared at Luo Yin angrily, then stood up and left.

At this time, Antigone, Insmene, and Inner were sitting in the corner of the hall enjoying wine and fruits with Creon's wife Eurydice.

After Eurytus came over, he took Yin Ele away directly.

When Eurytus and Yin'ele left the hall, Creon complained dissatisfiedly.

"Haemon! Because the city of Thebes is stronger than the city of Ocallia, even if Etecles already has a wife and children, Eurytus can finally accept In'ele to marry Etecles. You What you said just now, do you really want to get Yin'ele, or do you not want Etekles to marry a powerful royal family? "

"I'm not worried that my cousin Etecles will marry a princess from a powerful royal family, which will threaten my throne. I just don't want other men to steal my woman."

Luo Yin said with a smile.

"Even if Eurytus doesn't want Yin'ele to become his concubine, in the absence of a man to propose to Yin'ele, he can only marry Yin'ele to me in the end."

Etecles said dissatisfied at this time.

"Uncle Creon, please don't make decisions for me without authorization. Although my wife is not a royal princess, I love my wife very much, so I will not marry Yin'ele."

"Then you are really a dedicated and good husband!"

After teasing Etecles and looking at Luo Yin who was unabashedly greedy, Creon didn't know whether he should be happy or not.

Palace courtyard.

After Eurytus pulled Yin'ele out of the hall, the father and daughter went to a remote corner of the courtyard. Yin'ele took the initiative to ask Eurytus, who was still angry.

"Father! Are you so angry because of my marriage?"

Eurytus nodded and said.

"I want the city of Ocaria to form an alliance with the city of Thebes, and let you marry the Thebes royal family as a symbol of the alliance. But Haemon actually said that he not only wanted Oedipus's daughter Antigone I serve the same husband as Insmene, and I want you to be his concubine. My beloved daughter is the only princess in Okaria. How can I make you a concubine with no status, and let your child be like an illegitimate child? No inheritance rights."

"She actually got it right."

After hearing what Eurytus said, Yin'ele said in surprise.

"Father! You know that Antigone and Insmene are the priestesses of the two patron goddesses in Thebes! Insmene got the power of prophecy from the goddess of time she served, and she has just sent you and Haemon The conversation told me.”

In this world where gods really exist, divine power is greater than royal power, and the high priest of the god is the king himself or the royal family that the king trusts most.

Of course Eurytus knew that Antigone and Insmene were priestesses of Themis, the goddess of justice, and Mnemosyne, the goddess of time. His daughter Inole was also the sea goddess who protected the city of Okaria. of priestess.

"Yin'ele, you already know Haemon's thoughts, so what do you think? When I held a marriage proposal competition for you, I provoked Hercules and made your life fall into misfortune. Now I want to respect you. idea.”

Yin Ele slowly lowered his head and said.

"Although I have only spent a short time with Antigone and Insmene, I can see that they are girls with good personalities, so I can accept becoming Haemon's wife with them."

"My daughter—are you serious?"

After Eurytus asked in shock, Yin'ele nodded and said.

"As long as Haemon can protect our family from being harmed by Hercules, I am willing to be his side wife."

the next day.

The royal family and nobles of Thebes once again gathered in the palace hall.

Witnessed by everyone, Luo Yin ascended the throne that originally belonged to Etecles and became the new king of Thebes.

In the past Etecles was a puppet king in name only.

Now that Luo Yin has become the king, Creon also does not want to hand over the power of the king to Luo Yin.

Luo Yin originally wanted to be the hands-off shopkeeper.

If he didn't need his status as king to control the overall situation, Luo Yin would even want to give up his status as king to Creon.

After announcing as a king that all matters big and small would be handed over to Creon, the father of the king, Luo Yin lay lazily on the throne and watched Creon skillfully discuss various matters with the elders and nobles.

After all the trivial matters were discussed, the topic returned to Luo Yin.

An old elder stood up and said.

"King Creon! In the past, King Haemon was just your son, so we have no right to interfere with his marriage. Now Haemon is the king of the entire Thebes region. In order to orderly pass on the throne, he should get married and give birth to an heir as soon as possible. ”

Creon nodded and said.

"I'm more anxious about Haemon's marriage than you are, but I haven't found a wife for him yet. When I was engaged to Haemon and Antigone in the past, Antigone was a princess of Thebes, and Haemon was just a nobleman. Son of Haemon, the two were engaged to Antigone. Now Haemon is the king of Thebes, and Antigone is just a fallen princess. For the sake of Haemon's happiness and for the kingdom of Thebes to gain a strong ally, I I want Haemon to marry a princess from a powerful city.”

After hearing Creon's words, a noble said worriedly.

"Antigone and Insmene are not only princesses, but also priestesses serving the two goddesses. Their marriage also needs our attention. If King Haemon wants to abandon Princess Antigone, then we will keep her for life Don’t you want to marry to serve the goddess? Princess Antigone and Princess Insmene have special status, and we must not let them marry to other city-states.”

"When we expelled Prince Polynices, King Adrastus of Argos used him to launch a war. I don't want to have such a painful experience again."

"Don't worry, I have already figured out how to arrange Antigone and Insmene."

Everyone's eyes focused on Creon, and Creon continued.

"In order to prevent other city-states from taking advantage of Antigone and Insmene, I will give them two choices. They can only marry my Haemon, or they can live in the city of Thebes and never marry."

The elders and nobles immediately widened their eyes and looked at Creon in disbelief.

Antigone was originally Luo Yin's fiancée.

Now Creon not only wants Luo Yin to marry the princess of a powerful city, but also wants Antigone and Insmene to become Luo Yin's concubines. This is really too shameless.

As the biological uncle of Antigone and Insmene, Creon is really cruel to his two nieces.
