A WASTED KNIGHT

A WASTED KNIGHT
The Goodness of Princess Xianning


Wiraksara returned to his place of work, but in the cage


the horse he did not encounter Tie Shi, a


bad thoughts flashed in his brain.  One of the workers asked


“Sala, where's Uncle Shi? Usually at this hour he is already


come to the cage.”


“I don't know either, this morning I hurried to go to


the stables and take the war horses that will be brought to Annam. Troop


Prince Gaoxu this morning trained in the south square. But I'm going home


looked at. I'm afraid she's sick because when I woke up her room was still


closed,” replied Wiraksara.


Wiraksara immediately went home to the cottage, Tie shi's room was still


enclosed. Curious about Wiraksara


knock on the door and call Tie Shi


“Uncle..Uncle Shi..Uncle open the door it is noon!”


Wiraksara repeatedly knocked on the door but the door was still


unopened.


Looks like I have to break down the door, Inner Wiraksara.


The young man then broke down the door of Tie shi's room, inside


tie Shi's room was still asleep in his bed quietly. Not at all disturbed


with the sound of the door being broken by Wiraksara. Slowly the young man approached Tie


Shi then touched his arm


“Uncle Shi..Uncle Shi wake up.”


When Wiraksara's hand touched Tie shi's lanagn how shocked


he, Tie shi's hand felt hard, cold and stiff. Suddenly Wiraksara cried


sniffle. Uncle Shi had died quietly


“Uncle Shi..Uncle Shi forgive me, did you die because


sad my bonds are broken?”


After crying, Wiraksara left the house


informing Uncle Shi's death to his friends


“Uncle Shi died,” Wiraksara reported to the insurer


answer the war horses of the palace.


The entire worker in the stables was shocked, Uncle Shi had


passed away.


“Sala, is that true?” Ask an employee.


“Come to the house of worship, please help me take care


his corpse. I don't know the Chinese tradition of caring for a corpse,” said


Wiraxar.


His friends come to look up at Tie Shie's cottage and


helping Wiraksara take care of Tie Shi's body.  That day the entire workers in the palace stables mourned, Uncle Shi had


passed away. Wiraksara helped his friends dig the ground for mehunt Tie Shi.


There was no funeral, everything was simple. After event


wiraksara Cemetery returned to work because the Head of the Military Supplies Division


he ordered them to go back to work.


Home work the cottage situation is still dark. Wiraxar


turn on the lights then start cleaning yourself in the well then prepare


the food.  The atmosphere of the house feels lonely without


uncle Shi's presence, Wiraksara entered Uncle Shi's room and began to tidy up


his things. When about to clear the Tie Shi table that is full of


stack of books, Wiraksara found a letter addressed to Tie Lie


Yungs. The letter was not finished yet but in the letter Tie Shi wanted to meet


his daughter and gave him an heirloom sword. Wiraksara opens the closet


Tie Shi and found a sword with a jade handle. Dismissed


the sword, it looks its blade is shiny blackness. There is no carat


although it has been stored for a long time.


“Truly a good heirloom sword,” murmured


Wiraxar.


Stowed back Tie shi's sword then sat on the edge


bed thought of Tie shi's wish that had not been fulfilled yet.


“Uncle, I promise, after I leave here, I will


giving this heirloom sword to Tie Lie Yung,” muttered Wiraksara.

The next day the workers in the stables were scrambled


a horse that suddenly died. Woe to the dead horse


is a horse under Tie Shi's responsibility. But the Head of the Supplies Division


The military didn't want to know he called Wiraksara and blamed him


“You have neglected to let a horse die of illness.


Why don't you take good care of that horse?” You have to make up for the loss


on that dead horse or you're executed!”


Wiraksara who felt did not know anything immediately protested


“The horse is old and sickly, but why


youforsaken me? It's only natural that an old horse dies!”


But the official did not want to know, he called the guard soldiers


“Guard...take him to jail!”.


Wiraksara knows, the man deliberately looking for because of


deliberately blamed him for the death of an old horse that was already sickly.


they will forget about it and consider it just like the other inmates


not a guest from Majapahit.


A few soldiers had suddenly dragged him away


take him to jail.


“Hei. You guys can't hold me like this!”


Wiraksara can only resignedly accept his fate to be


prisoners in the land of men. While on his way out of prison, near


the war practice square, they met Princess Xianning who was on the rise


horses heading to the square for archery practice . The soldiers who brought


Wiraksara immediately knelt down and gave his greetings


“Honor to Mr Princess!”


Watching Wiraksara being taken to the prison princess Xianning stopped


the horse and asked


“Where are you taking this young man?”


“He will be imprisoned for having made one of the horses


war we die,” said the Chief of Guards.


“Lied, the horse died because it was already tuda and


sickly-sickly!” Wiraksara cried who immediately stood up.


“Shut up!” Snapped a guard while hitting Wiraksara


until Wiraksara fell back.


“If the horse dies because it has been sick for a long time and


aging you shouldn't hold him back! Before him too the horses were many


who died of sickness or old age.  Who


who told you to arrest him?!”ask Princess Xianning.


The guards were stunned and looked at each other, they


not daring to tell who the person who told to hold Wiraksara.  Princess Xianning looked at the guards


one by one waiting for an answer. Seeing the guards was silent Princess


Xianning smiled and said


“You can't answer my question, it means true


you guys are looking for something! Take him to my residence, I'll


make him a palace dog nurse officer!”


Wiraksara surprised, no doubt his fate like out


from the mouth of the crocodile into the mouth of the lion. Become a horse manager as a manager


canine.


“But Lord Princess!” Head word P{engawal.


“He will come with me, now you can go!” Exclaims


Princess Xianning to the guards.


The guards took him to the Princess's place


Xianings. Arriving at the residence of Princess Xianning, Wiraksara met again with


two ladies-in-waiting who were looking for Chen-Chen.


“Lin Fung, Mei Chen, you guys got a new friend who will


help you keep my beloved dogs!”


“Sister, how did you get here?” Ask Lin Fung.


“All this is because of Princess Xinanning's kindness, she has


save me from being accused of abandoning the war horse,” replied Niskala.


“Give him the dog nurse officer uniform and teach him


how to take care of my dogs. I want archery practice first!”


After Princess Xianning passed, the two maids took her


at Uncle Yue the butler's head in Keputren and given a new uniform.


“Every day you have to go to the palace kitchen asking for meat on


kitchen clerk for dog feed. They eat three times a day and clean


the cage if it's dirty.  Every day feathers


the dogs need to be combed and cut to be neat, you should also look for


I have it every day,” said Uncle Yan.


Wiraksara looked around the dog kennel, there was a dog


Peking and Shih Tzu are the royal favorites.


“What's your name young man?” Ask Uncle Yan.


“I Wiraksara of the war horse division. But Uncle could


call me Sala.”


“Alright Sala, then you know Tie Shi?” Ask Uncle


Yan.


“Yes right, I live one cottage with him, but he's new


just died yesterday,” Wiraksara said.


“Tie Shi died? It turns out he was ahead of me, though,


where was he buried?”


“After our cottage,” Wiraksara said.


A Shih Tzu dog came wagging its tail in welcome


the arrival of Uncle Yue, but seeing Wiraksara they immediately barked


strenuously. Wiraksara retreated preparing to run but Uncle Yue prevented him


“It's okay, they don't bite.”


That day Wiraksara learned about how to keep a dog,


even though he doesn't like the job. In the afternoon he returned to his home


after a long day of work. When night falls, the dogs are put away


in place.
