FIVE KINGS (The Five Kings)
Chapter 64
He knelt before his father.
"How was your visit?" ask the King The pretends not to know yet.
"King Cee was furious that Father did not come alone, and King Cee did not accept. Then according to the advice of the servant, it is better for you to re-unite with King Couw!" si Cu Hoa.
Hearing the report was not playing angry King The.
"O ungodly boy, you almost sold my country!" the Bun Kong said with great annoyance. "I already know all your behavior there. Hm! Now you've got a lie in front of me! Guards arrested him and dragged his input into the dark room!"
But this brat would not give up so easily, inside the prison he tried to break into the wall to escape. The hunt was discovered by the guards. Because of the King's anger then issued an order to kill the bad boy.
The King was very respectful to King Cee who did not want to hear the incitement of his son. So he sent Khong Siok to thank King Cee.
In the 22nd year of the reign of Emperor Ciu Hui Ong, in the Tang (Gugur) season His Majesty Ciu Hui Ong was seriously ill. Prince The was very worried that his half-brother would usurp his throne if his father died. He secretly ordered Ong-cu Houw to tell King Cee that his Majesty was very ill.
A few days later, Emperor Ciu Hui Ong died.
The Prince conferred with Ciu Kong Khong and Siao Pek Liauw, they took the decision to take care of the mourning first, before taking care of the appointment of a successor to the Emperor. But they secretly sent men to follow Ong-cu Houw and inform him that the Emperor had died.
Got the news that Ong-cu Houw once arrived in front of King Cee, immediately reported about the death of the Emperor Ciu. King Cee immediately sent envoys to various countries to raise the kings in the land of Yao, land belonging to the land of Co.
In the meeting of the kings, King The Bun Kong was present.
The entire Union of Young Kings agreed to submit a proposal to the Kingdom of Ciu. Then they sent eight officers from each country.
When the eight great ministers of the eight countries reached Ciu, they looked very haunted. As soon as they came they said they wanted to convey the feelings of sorrow from their respective kings. They are still gathering outside the city.
Ong-cu Houw entered the Capital first to report.
The Prince orders Siao Pek Liauw to go welcome all Tay-hu or great ministers from various countries. Then he took care of the mourning.
As soon as the ceremony was over, a Great Minister represented all the envoys and spoke.
"On the orders of our Kings, we have come to declare our mourning! With this also on the agreement of our Kings, then we beg Prince The to ascend the throne as Emperor Ciu!" the spokesman for the Minister said.
The speech received a great reception. The prince then sat on the royal throne. After that all the ministers congratulated the new Emperor Ciu, who was titled Ciu Siang Ong.
In the following year in the Cun (Semi) season as the first year of the reign of Emperor Ciu Siang Ong. That day Emperor Ciu was about to pray in the temple of his late father. He also said he would give something to King Cee who helped him wholeheartedly.
Hearing Emperor Ciu's intentions, King Cee invited the entire Young King to come to Kui-kiu.
On the way to the meeting place, King Cee Hoan Kong and Koan Tiong discussed the matter of the Ciu Kingdom.
"The Ciu royal council, since it had not initially determined a successor to the Emperor, was close to a riot" Koan Tiong said. "Now my Lord himself must appoint an heir, so that in the future there will be no chaos."
"I have six sons, all born to my concubines" said Cee Hoan Kong. "The greatest is Prince Bu Kui, but the cleverest Prince Ciao. Prince Bu Kui's mother, Tiang We Ki, had been taking care of me the longest, while Ek Ge and Si Tiao proposed that I appoint Prince Bu Kui as my heir. But I doubt because I love the intelligence of Prince Ciao. What about Tiong-hu?"
Koan Tiong knew Ek Ge and Si Tiao were dornas, moreover they were always loved by Tiang We Ki. If in the future Pangera Bu Kui becomes king, Koan Tiong is worried that the two dornas will mess up from the inside and outside. Cee's country is gonna be fucked!
Prince Ciao was born to Consort The Ki and Koan Tiong remembered the new state of The Union. So if Prince Ciao becomes Crown Prince, then the relationship between Cee and The country will grow closer.
After thinking that, Koan Tiong just said.
"If my Master is about to pass on the Kingdom of Cee to a clever man, it is better to raise Prince Ciao! If the country was taken care of by an unskilled King, it would definitely not be good!" koan Tiong.
"But Bu Kui my eldest son, will he not take his sister's place?" ask King Cee.
"My master remembered, for the future Emperor Ciu only my Master takes care, because my lord is the leader of all the kings. Gather the Young Kings then assign Prince Ciao to have all the Young Kings defend him! Then what is my Master worried about again?" koan Tiong.
