When the king came to the bathhouse, Eppy Sui, as always, treated him hospitablely, wiped the king's back and rinsed himself, and then said: "Your Majesty, the servant has prepared a hair-plucking medicine for your majesty to pluck armpit hair after taking a bath. " "Okay, bring it to me." Aipi Sui loyally presented the hair-plucking medicine. The king smelled the arsenic in the medicine and thought it was poison, so he roared and angrily ordered his attendants: "Catch him quickly!" The servants arrested Epi Sui.Still angry, the king hurried out of the bathroom, got dressed, immediately summoned the guards, and tied up Aipi Sui.At that time, no one could understand why the king was angry. Seeing him turn blue with anger, people looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to ask.Aipy Sui was bound before the king, and at once he sent to the captain of the royal ship, and said to him, "Take me this cunning, filthy little fellow, and take a sack and put him with two hundred pounds of lime Pack it inside, tie up the bag, and carry it in a small boat to the palace. I order you, throw him into the sea, and let the lime and sea water burn him alive and drown him."

"As you order," the captain took Epi Sui, but came to a small island, and said to him: "Hi! How are you! I went to your bathhouse to take a bath, and I am very grateful that you treated me well and didn't charge me for the bath. Since then, I have a very good impression of you, very I admire you for what you are. Tell me, what happened between you and the king? How did you offend him, make him hate you, and let me treat you so cruelly?" "By Allah, I did nothing. I don't know what crime I have committed to deserve this fate!" "The king looks at you differently, which is beyond the reach of others. Those who are rewarded are often easily envied by others. You may be envied and envied. When others spread your slander in front of the king, the king hates you so much. But it doesn't matter, I will help you. As you respect me, I will rescue you, and I will live with you on this island, waiting for a suitable ship, and then send you back to your hometown."
