"Maybe it's time for me to die ..."

"Do not say so my king, I think king can still be cured of diseases ..."

"I'll keep working on how to make sure that the king gets well, I'll ask the commander Adhinata to look for a divine corpse like the meditation I received last night," said Queen Bhanuwati.

"How about the affairs of state? I don't want to burden the people with taxes or tribute in any case," king jayantaka's orders.

"Yes, King, yesterday I ordered Badrika's uncle to gather the imperial courtiers to discuss this issue, and I will later inform them that the tax would be imposed on all the officials, from the palace area to the palace level according to the order and conditions of the individual lands," explains Queen Bhanuwati.

"Absolutely ... correct I completely agree with your opinion... Uhuks, uhuks, uhuks," said king Jayantaka with shortness of breath for holding back his cough.

"Then don't wait for tomorrow, just now call the servants for an emergency session, I don't want to end my life burdening the people with taxes."

"Well, king. I shall collect commander the royal courtier now."

Then Empress Bhanuwati left the king's room, while the other three were asked to keep her king.

After out of the main palace Queen Bhanuwati called prime minister Badrika.

"Uncle Badrika, please gather the royal courtiers together at the grand Paseban hall, there was a royal order to be given immediately."

"Yes, majesty queen ... I will do it now," the prime minister said, paying his respects.

Then prime minister Badrika give information for the gathering of the royal courtiers.

So that it would not take long for the royal courtiers to meet in the hall of the great paseban.

And when it felt like everything had been. He immediately informed queen bhanuwati.

"Queen... All the people are present at the great Paseban Agung hall."

"Well, I will be here soon and the trial will begin."

"Yes, Queen..."

Prime minister Badrika returned to his seat and Paseban hall was filled with a talk from a few of the people, and a few moments later a drum punch.

Duong... Duong... Duong...

"Queen Bhanuwati will soon enter the Paseban hall, please all present to pay homage to her Queen," said the commander.

"Sincerely, Queen Bhanuwati. May good-wishes be with you always," cried the royal courtier unitedly.

"Sit down please!" said Queen Bhanuwati holding up her palm as a sign of greeting from her front.

"All the people ... As you know, his king Jayantaka was still recovering from his long years of illness, but as a king, he was still concerned about the well-being of his people, in this case, king Jayantaka will make a taxation policy. That it is now deleted or nullified for the collection of taxes for the people."

All the people agree with Queen Bhanuwati.

"But this policy does not apply to the imperial courtiers at all levels, ranging from those who live around the palace to those in the area in this case, for example, the higher-level employees, and certainly the range of the tax levies should be adjusted to the pay from the palace, so far as to whether this royal order can be received directly or if any other proposals are proposed?"

All the people present were answering right away.

"We all the people accept Queen ..."

When most of the royal courtiers agreed to the king's orders, suddenly there was a sound of one of the royal courtiers giving instructions.

"I'm sorry I can't accept her Queen," Rakryan Dipasena said with one of the courtiers, raising his hand, and the mere retainer immediately became the attention of the other courtiers.

"What is the thing that makes you unable to accept?" asked Queen Bhanuwati so thoughtfully.

"The tax problems are imposed on state officials but I don't agree with the people who belong to the rich, and even more wealth than the state officials, because I also know that there were so many wealthy merchants in Karmajaya that I beg Queen to consider," says Dipasena.

"Good proposal and at the same time question you are entitled When it comes to the matter that merchants will be given their tax regulation and then I will order all magistrates of the same rank to record all merchants doing business in their territory as well as merchants from foreign lands. So what all the people acceptable?"

"Yes, Queen." answered the court with a united front.

"Well then I'll close the trial this time, and thank you and enjoy working in the service of Karmajaya," closed Queen Bhanuwati.

Duong... Duong... Duong...

"The queen may leave the grand paseban hall." Said, commander.

And after presiding over the court with the imperial court, Queen Bhanuwati was known to call adhinata's to face him.

"Adhinata ..."

"Yes, Queen."

"I'll see you at Pulasari hall. I have a special assignment for you."

"Well, Queen."

Accompanied by bodyguards and four maids, Queen Bhanuwati immediately made her way to Pulasari hall where she used to receive special guests.

And once inside the castle the queen asked the bodyguards and maid to guard the outside.

"All of you wait and watch outside, and you maid Laksmi stay here by my side."

"Good, Queen ..."maid Laksmi reply.

And soon Adhinata came knocking at the door.

Tok, tok, tok...

"Please enter!"

"Thank you, Queen."

"Please sit down!" and after greeting her customary greetings, Adhinata steps down immediately on the floor of the beautiful middle-east tapestry.

"What happened Queen? Do I have a special command?"

"That's right, Adhinata, I do have a special assignment for you," the queen said.

"What special task may you assign to me?"

"I would order to your search for news of the whereabouts of the recently deceased body of a great sage."

"Where shall I find his, my Queen?"

"That's what I don't know either because I only got the news from meditation I did three days ago, but from the signs that I got the whereabouts of the body in a cave that's been flocked, so it's your job now to find that cave, whether you're looking for it yourself or carrying a troop of soldiers."

"Well, Queen. I'll fulfill your orders, and I'll find out for myself."

"Then let's get on the road, and then we'll find you and bring you to the mortician, and if you can pull this off, there'll be a great prize I gave you."
