Chapter 22 - chapter 22

It is said that after sorrow comes happiness and after happiness, sorrow comes.

Perhaps someone had caught sight of the city of Ayodhya.

One day King Ram went on a night tour to know the happiness and sorrow of his people. While traveling, he heard a commotion from a house, the sound of someone hitting and shouting. King Rama stopped his chariot there and tried to listen to the voices that were being spoken in a loud voice.

Those voices were coming from the house of a washer-man, who was hitting his wife. washer-man and at the same time saying,

"I am not a Ram whose wife stays with someone for fourteen years and she brings back to his house"

With this saying, the washerman threw the washerwoman out of the house and closed the door. The washerman sat down at the door squeamishly and started sobbing.

Seeing this, Rama's heart was filled with sorrow and he said to the charioteer, "Come to the palace immediately."

Coming to his room, Rama looked at Sita's face. He was very much in love with the sleeping innocent Sita, but the very next moment he turned his face with a jerk. His heart was filled with self-pity, he took his face in both his hands and sat down on the ground calmly.

He was remembering the washerman again and again and the words said by him were reverberating in his ears.

Raj court punishment in the morning.

Sita did sixteen makeup and information was also sent to Mandvi, Urmila and Shrutkirti that today we will go on a city tour.

Everything started to decorate, Serious Mandvi was also looking very beautiful today. The three sisters came to Sita's room and the four sisters started laughing and laughing. The four sisters were suggesting the names of their future children. Would have laughed seeing a strange name.

Here Raja Ram held the court and informed everyone that

"everybody must come to the meeting today."

Four brothers, Sumantra ji and other ministers were present in the meeting. Ram, being very patient and serious, called Lakshmana to him. He suddenly ordered Lakshmana that

"Left Sita in the forest"

The whole assembly was astonished to hear this.

Lakshman was shocked and stood still. The hardness of Rama's face had made him rooted. He started crying at the feet of Rama.

"Brother, what are you saying, are you okay?"

Rama said harshly,

"Lakshman follow my orders."

Information was sent by the messenger to Mata Kaushalya, Kaikeyi and Sumitra in the palace that Sita should be prepared to wear clothes from the forest dweller. Mothers could not understand this language. Then Lakshman reached crying and told the whole reality.

The four sisters were engrossed in themselves. They didn't know what was going to hit them.

Then Urmila saw a maid standing at the door, holding a message in her hand, asking the queen to reach Sita.

Hearing the message, Sita jumped with joy, she thought that Rama must have sent a loving message to her. Give a message to Sita, all the four sisters jumped on her. The three began to plead with Sita to read the message,

"Hurry to open the message dear! Let us also see what message Jeth ji(brother-in-law) has sent.

Sita started hiding and throwing tantrums. Seeing this, the sisters started tickling, asking them to read the message. Sita laughed at him and said,

"Okay. Sit comfortably, I open now"

Sita opened the message gently and wrote above,

"Dear Sita"

"Oooh" came out of the mouth of the three sisters and smiled. The message continued to be read, it was written in it

"Our meeting was probably only for a few days, we will have to part again."

When tears started pouring out of Sita's eyes, there was sadness on the faces of the sisters too.

"Tonight when I went on a tour, the washerman said such words to the washerwoman which I could not bear and was filled with self-loathing. I know that you took fire as a witness and gave the ordeal but the words of the washerman hurt me. You too have come to a great man after staying for fourteen years, you know that we stayed together for some time but in the eyes of the people you were with Ravana. You are pure but I can't be with you anymore."

Sita wiped her tears, further wrote

"I know you will not be able to leave the royal luxuries, yet I want you to go from the palace in the guise of a forest dweller and make your living by going to the forest yourself. I can not be with you. I have to follow my dignity, I love the people of my city more than life.
