FIVE KINGS (The Five Kings)
Chapter 30



After talking for a while, Su Souw said goodbye to Li Kek. He's back at his house.


Shortly after Su Souw left Li Kek's house, Kwee Yan also came to visit Li Kek's house.


At this fellow Li Kek told him what Su Souw had said to him.


"No, I don't think so" said Kwe Yan. "According to my guess, in Chin country there will only be great chaos, if it must be destroyed, it is not yet the time."


"How can you say that?" ask Li Kek.


"The Chin State is a great country, at this time very strong and advanced. If there is chaos, other countries will not be able to destroy it. Because the melee can definitely be put out! In fact, I think one day Chin will be a champion among the small countries. It will even lift the prestige of the Ciu Kingdom!"


"When do you think the chaos will happen?" li Kek.


"I think it's less than ten years away."


Li Kek recorded Kwe Yan's remarks in his diary to serve as a memorial to him.


After talking for so long, Kwe Yan excuse me to go home, he was escorted by Li Kek to the outside door.

Since King Chin Hian Kong raised Li Ki to be Empress, the more days of his love everlasting, so the intention of King Chin to raise He Ce to be Si-cu (Crown Prince).


One day King Chin conveyed his intention to Li Ki.


Hearing the intention of the Chin King Hian Kong raising the son of Li Ki to be the Crown Prince, Li Ki lowered his head while thinking.


"This is what I was really hoping for" Li Ki thought. "But, Sin Seng has been appointed Crown Prince. If for no reason change Sin Seng's position, I fear all ministers will not agree. For sure they will reject King Chin's strange verdict. Moreover, Tiong Ji and Ie Gouw were very familiar with Sin Seng. Ach, never mind, if those three Kong-cu (Prince) were still here, there was no point in the matter being discussed. It is free and useless. At best I must practice subtle deceptions, so that once moving will be successful."


After his thoughts remained, Li Ki knelt before King Chin Hian Kong while saying in a sad voice.


"No, Milord! Don't you do it!" said Li Ki. "Don't forget when Sin Seng was appointed, all the Young Kings knew about it. Sin Seng is clever and innocent. If it was because my Master loved me and my son so much, then my Master got rid of Sin Seng, then people all over this continent would curse my Master! Instead of having to endure the shame of my entire life, I would rather just kill myself!"


He hurriedly woke Li Ki who was kneeling before him. King Chin thought the "heart" speech was very sincere and sincere.


Among the Chin ministers, there were two Ta-hu (Great Ministers) whom Chin Hian Kong loved the most and trusted. One was Liang Ngo, the other was Tong Koan Ngo. The two dignitaries became Chinese Hian Kong spies to investigate the situation outside. It is only a pity that they are cruel and greedy or greedy. Because it is very believed they dare to act arbitrarily and pretentious. The people of Chin state named them Ji Ngo (Two Ngo).


Besides the two of them there was another one who came from the land of Yu Si. He is very young, so cute. The intelligence of this man is many and very good at talking. This man was so dear to Chin Hian Kong, that he was free to enter his palace without interruption.


Outside of knowing Chin Hian Kong Empress Li Ki has a secret relationship with Yu Si. Even Yu Si became the dark lover of this empress.


About his intention and his plan to raise his son to be king, by Li Ki conveyed to Yu Si.


Li Ki asked Yu Si for help to get rid of the three princes, Sin Seng, Tiong Ji, and Ie Gouw, so that He Ce, could seize the position of Sin Seng.


"To get rid of them to distant places, there must be a strong reason. For example, they are asked to keep the border of the country" said Yu Si. "But it's not easy. There should be a suggestion from outside the city. It just so happens that the Two Ongs are now very much in need. Let's bribe the two of them so they can make a proposal to ask the three princes to serve at the border!"


Li Ki agreed on the plan made by Yu Si, even he considered it to be perfect. Li Ki took the gold and fine silk cloth, the items were handed over to Yu Si to be delivered to the greedy Two Ngo.


Yu Si brought the valuables to the houses of the two rotten officials. Yu Si's arrival was greeted sweetly by the host.


"Hong-houw (Empress) asks the servant to bring this gift. I hope you gentlemen will accept it" said Yu Si.


"O, Hong-houw is so kind, he's been very attentive to us" the two corrupt ministers said. "We think Hong-houw might have a duty for both of us, just say it! We both dare not accept this gift of his."


Yu Si immediately told one by one clearly, what Li Ki wanted from the two of them.


After hearing the dispatcher from Yu Si, the two corrupt ministers nodded. After thinking for a moment, they put forward a condition.


"We are both ready to carry out the duties of Hong-houw, but we must be helped by Tong Koan Ngo" they said.


"Oh, don't be afraid! All of that was already thought up by Hong-houw. " said Yu Si.
