FIVE KINGS (The Five Kings)

Chapter 79

Yu Si said, after getting an answer from Li Kek, he hurriedly met Li Ki. He relayed the answer from Li Kek to Li Ki. It was no fun that Li Ki heard that answer.

At night, with a sweet smile Li Ki said to Chin Hian Kong: "Si-cu has lived in Kiokah for a long time, why didn't my master call him? Let my lord call home, I want to be kind to him. Who knew he would change his unfavorable attitude."

"Yes, if you think so, fine," said Chin Hian Kong.

He always obeyed the will of his heart.

Tomorrow.......

Sure enough Chin Hian Kong issued an order to call Prince Sin Seng back to the capital.

As soon as he received the call, Sin Seng immediately left for the capital. He went straight to Chin Hian Kong, after he had done the ritual he asked about his father's health. Only then did he enter the palace to meet Li Ki.

With sweetness Li Ki received the arrival of Prince Sin Seng, then arranged a banquet. Li Ki welcomed Sin Seng with pleasure, like a mother who had not seen her son for a long time..

But that night, when Li Ki met Chin Hian Kong, with tears in his eyes he said, "As I have told my Lord, I want to try to make up with Prince Sin Seng, but .....really sorry. Why is Prince Sin Seng so brash!"

"What's going on?" asked King Chin in surprise. "I took the Prince to lunch" crying and wiping his tears, "he wanted to eat together. Turns out he has a wish. When he was drunk, with a smile he dared to say this. €™My father is old, can you feel satisfied sleeping with him?€™ Hearing his words my heart became hot and did not answer his question."

King Chin was shocked.

"Because the question was not answered, the Prince said again like this. €™Had my Grandfather been old to my mother, Cee-kiang, then My mother was passed on to my father, and now my father is old, my father is old, he will also leave you to me.

Then if I'm not the heir, who else? Why are you timid, let's enjoy the pleasures of this world. Then he tried to get close to me, but with a huff I pushed him! Because I refused, he was less happy."

King Chin was bengong and half in disbelief.

Seeing King Chin as unsure, Li Ki cleverly said again.

"If my master doesn't believe my words, I'll take the Prince for a walk in the flower garden. My master can scout her from the top of the ranggon, My master can see for himself how she behaves" Li Ki said with aleman. "Bad!" king Chin Hian Kong shouted furiously. "Well, I'll ask the child's behavior!"

Tomorrow, the,,,,, the, the, the,,,,,,

Back Li Ki called Prince Sin Seng to come, he took the Prince for a walk in the flower garden. But first Li Ki had rubbed honey (bits) in his hair. No wonder when they were walking in the flower garden, bees and butterflies were flying on the condensation.

"Prince, help me! Get those bees and butterflies out of my head!" that spiteful and vile Li Ki said.

At least Prince Sin Seng did not expect, that it was the foul wits of his stepmother. He did not realize that he would be slandered. So with his hands he tried to drive away butterflies and bees from his mother's conde, until his body with the body of Empress Li Ki became very close.

At that time Chin Hian Kong was indeed watching towards them from above a lauw-teng. Of course because it was a long distance away, he did not hear what Li Ki had said to his son. But clearly he could see Sin Seng as being so affectionate; even wagging his arm over his wife's head. It was as if Sin Seng was taking his wife on a joke and looked friendly.

The next night, King Chin Hian Kong told his lover that he would arrest Prince Sin Seng and be put to death.

Li Ki pretended to be shocked. He immediately knelt before King Chin.

"Sir, please forgive the Prince's mistake this time. If she's put to death, then I'm the one who's gonna take the blame, because she came to the flower garden at my request." Wail Li Ki cleverly."Remember, my Lord, that incident no one knows about. If my Master punishes him, and the general knows this will be less good for my own Master!""

Back King Chin whose weak heart could be persuaded. He canceled his intention to punish the prince.

The next day Prince Sin Seng was asked to return to Kiok-ah immediately. But King Chin secretly sent people to spy on his son.

After a few days, King Chin Hian Kong went hunting to Ek-hoan.

This good opportunity was not wasted by Li Ki, he called Yu Si to be invited on a date as well as negotiate.

In the negotiations Li Ki and Yu Si set an evil plan. He sends people to Kiok-ah; the envoy is asked to deliver Queen Li Ki's message. The message was like this: Last night Queen Li Ki dreamed that Prince Sin Seng's mother, Empress Cee Kiang, was deceased in a difficult and prayerful state.

Hearing the messenger's description, Prince Sin Seng hurriedly prayed for his mother. As usual the dishes were sent to the capital for the King of Chin Hian Kong. But when the food arrived, King Chin had not yet returned from hunting.

Six days later, King Chin Hian Kong returned home from hunting. Hearing that King Chin was coming home and was about to arrive at the palace, Li Ki immediately put poison into the wine sent by Prince Sin Seng to his father.

"When my Master went hunting, I dreamed that Queen Cee Kiang was miserable and starving" Li Ki said. "Because my Master is not in the palace, I told Prince Sin Seng in Kiok-ah to stay. After praying, he sent food to my lord."

King Chin is happy.

"He remembers me," said King Chin with a gleeful laugh.

Li Ki immediately poured the poisoned wine into a cup, then presented to King Chin.

But suddenly at the moment when King Chin was about to gulp down the wine, Li Ki gave a warning.

"Wait for my Lord!" said Li Ki.

King Chin was startled and cancelled his intention to drink the wine.

"What's wrong?" said King Chin.

"I forgot to warn my Master, food items that come from outside, even from my own son, must be researched first. This is for my Lord's safety!" li Ki said with a sweet smile.

"O. Yes, that's right" King Chin Hian Kong said.

Then the wine in the cup he poured onto the floor. How surprised King Chin was that once the wine fell to the floor, the wine evaporated and the floor was broken.
