FIVE KINGS (The Five Kings)
Chapter 84
Seeing that things were not good, Liang Ngo thought for sure he would also not be able to escape, immediately pulled out his sword and scratched his own throat, but before, Touw Gan I had to rush down and catch him. When Li Kek got there, he immediately lifted his machete and slashed the dorna into two pieces.
At that time Tay-hu Kiong Hoa also led his men to come help Li Kek.
Everyone else lunged at the door of the palace. Li Kek while holding the road sword first, while the others went along with him.
The dignitaries in the palace all got shocked and dispersed, only Sun Sit did not change his face, his left hand hugged Tok Cu, and he was not, his right hand raised his shirt to block the little king.
Tok Cu was frightened and crying.
”This little boy what is his sin?” sun Sit said to Li Kek. ”Better just kill me, hope you leave the son of the deceased king!”
”Sin Seng how? He is also the son of the deceased king!” sahut Li Kek, who immediately lyrics Touw Gan I and says, ”Have intervened!”
Touw Gan I immediately snatched Tok Cu from Sun Sit's hands, then he threw it down the palace stairs.
”Gubral!”
By then Tok Cu had perished.
Sun Sit became so furious, he whipped out the sword hanging on his waist was about to attack Li Kek. He was killed by Touw Gan I.
Everyone immediately charged into the palace.
Li Ki became very frightened, in a hurry he ran to the palace Ke Kun. But Ke Kun closed the door unwilling to accept. Because it was hopeless, with the trembling body of the spiteful woman ran to the back garden, from the bridge she threw herself into the water, and soon died.
Li Kek was still curious, he ordered his men to lift the corpse of the spiteful woman and chopped it to pieces.
Li Ki's younger sister, even though she gave birth to Tok Cu, but because she was not so evil as her brother Li Ki, she was forgiven not killed, but imprisoned in one of the rooms in the palace. While the families of two Ngo and Yu Si were all killed.
After retaliating against the ungodly people, Li Kek immediately called all the dignitaries to hold a meeting in the palace. Li Kek proposed to make Prince Tiong Ji king. But Pi The Hu said it was better to ask first the opinion of Ho Tut, Chin's oldest authority. Because it was immediately sent someone to invite Ho Tut. But Ho Tut refused to attend, he said, ”I'm old, I agree with what Tay-hu's decision is!”
When the man returned and informed Ho Tut, all the officials immediately decided to make Prince Tiong Ji king. Immediately spread the letter of adornment signed by Li Kek. Pi The Hu, Kiong Hoa, Ke Hoa, Tiauw Coan and others. All of them numbered thirty more people. Touw Gan I was immediately sent to bring the invitation letter to the land of Ek, will ask Kongcu Tiong Ji to return to the land of Chin to become king.
”It is better not to go, for only the death of my Lord's father and again in a state of turmoil, when my lord accepts to be king, not only the name becomes bad. Plus, worried that the people of the ungodly will retaliate in secret.” said Ho Yan.
Tiong Ji told Touw Gan I, he was not willing to accept to be king, let him be appointed by another prince.
Touw Gan I immediately went back to tell him that, Li Kek was still curious, he was about to order another envoy to invite Tiong Ji. But Tay-hu Nio Yu Bi immediately prevented.
”Just invite him, surely Kong-cu Tiong Ji will still refuse, so as not to waste time, just invite Kong-cu I Gouw.” said Nio Yu Bi.
”I Gouw is greedy and cruel,” said Li Kek less happy. ”For greedy then he cannot be trusted, and because cruel surely he has no love for the people.”
”But rather than raising another prince, it is more appropriate to lift Kongcu I Gouw, right?” nio Yu Bi.
”Yes, that's right!” exclamations of many.
Li Kek because he lost his voice, is it okay to immediately order Touw Gan I to join Nio Yu Bi to go pick up Kong-cu I Gouw in Liang country. It is true that the custom of I Gouw is far different from Tiong Ji, while Tiong Ji is sweet, whereas I Gouw he is greedy and cruel, as Li Kek said.
When I Gouw fled to the land of Liang, the king of Liang married his daughter to I Gouw, and from that marriage they sired a man named Gi.
Once news of his father's death, I Gouw immediately ordered Lu I Seng to take the city of Kut. Then after hearing the news that He Ce and Tok Cu were killed and all the dignitaries invited Tiong Ji, he no doubt immediately consulted with Kek Shia and Kiok Peng to seize the position of king. But before the verdict was taken came Nio Yu Bi and Touw Gan I invited him, so it was not the reeds of the girangnya Prince I Gouw.
Kiok Peng immediately expressed his opinion.
”If Tiong Ji already does not want to be king, surely he is still suspicious at home is still too many evil conspirators. If now as I Gouw wants to go into the tiger hole, you must be ready for sharp weapons, so that when a disaster arises, you are on standby. As far as the strongest group was the one led by Li Kek and Pi The Hu, then the two Tay-hu should be given a big bribe. In addition, we must also bribe the country of Cin, because Cin is very strong and neighbors with Chin, then by borrowing the power of a strong and close state, it is, surely they can enter Chin country easily and no one dares to block it.” said Kiok Peng.
I Gouw became excited, then he received advice from Kiok Peng. He testified to Touw Gan I and was told to go home first. I Gouw promised to reward Li Kek a thousand rice fields in Hun-yang, and Pi The Hu seven hundred rice fields in Hu-kiu. While Nio Yu Bi was sent to the land of Cin, to tell the king of Cin that all the princes in the land of Chin had invited I Gouw to be made king in the land of Chin. So I Gouw asked for support from the king of Cin, the army to deliver him back to the land of Chin. To his gratitude, I Gouw promised to give up five cities outside the Huang-hoo River (Yellow River).
Cin Bok Kong approved I Gouw's plea, then ordered Kong-sun Ci to lead three hundred chariots and soldiers to escort I Gouw.
Meanwhile, Cee Hoan Kong when he got news in the Chin country of chaos, he gathered young kings to negotiate. But when he arrived at Ko-liang land, he got word Cin country had brought his soldiers to deliver I Gouw. His Majesty Ciu Siang Ong ordered Ong-cu Tong to bring troops to Chin country, and only sent Sek Peng to lead the army gathered with the Cin and Ciu soldiers to jointly deliver I Gouw.
