Crown of the Nile: My Beggar Husband is the Pharaoh

The story

After a heartbreaking death, Merit awakens to her past and finds herself back at the Nile Inundation Festival, where noble girls are judged by the husbands they are destined to choose. She once lifted her husband’s career, only to be betrayed and murdered by her younger sister Nefti, who has also been reborn and is now scheming to take officer Hemte for herself. This time, the sacred scarab lands on Kaji, a beggar in disguise who is secretly Pharaoh Amenem, watching to see what kind of woman Merit is. Facing humiliation from her own family and ridicule from the crowd, she still chooses Kaji, though he appears to have nothing. In their poor little home, her expert folk medicine becomes the reason he falls deeply for her. Nefti’s envy turns vicious, and she sets Merit up, leaving her to be tortured in prison. Just when all seems lost, Kaji exposes his royal identity and crushes the plotters. As war, plague, and even the Hittite emperor’s attention threaten the kingdom, Merit protects it with wisdom and mercy—until she rises as Queen and shares true love with Kaji.
