Time passed quickly again.Another month has passed without knowing it since King Zubalu executed Cudi. At the beginning of this month, the whole court was busy carrying out the imperial orders, setting up banquets as usual, and inviting the people in the city to gather as scheduled. People were invited to come to the square in groups, dragging their children and women one by one, sat around the table, and waited for the king to arrive.When it was time for dinner, the king Zu Bailu came to the square again, sat in the chief seat of the ceremony platform, and directed the courtiers to warmly entertain the guests.After she announced the start of the banquet, the people went their own way to eat and drink.King Zu Bailu sat in the center of the ceremony platform, condescending, and could see the entire situation of the square clearly.She carefully observed everyone's behavior and actions.Inadvertently, she found that the table where Bersu and Cudi had sat before, on the side where the sugar rice was placed, there were enough vacant seats for four guests, and she was very surprised.

At this moment, an uninvited stranger entered the square, staggered to the empty seat that no one dared to sit on, and reached out to grab food, trying to have a good meal.His demeanor was very eye-catching, and immediately attracted King Zu Bailu to turn over and look carefully.She recognized at once that this hurried and uninvited visitor was the Christian Rashton who deserved to die.The so-called enemy's road is narrow, and enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.When the king Zu Bailu discovered that the big enemy had thrown himself into the trap, he was not only secretly overjoyed, but secretly calculated:

"This heinous heretic was finally sent to seek death. What a coincidence and auspicious arrangement of God!" Why did this Christian named Rashton suddenly come to this city and seek his own death?It turned out that when he snatched Zubailu back then, when he was overjoyed, he went on a long trip because of an incident. When he returned home, he learned from his family that Zubailu and a bag of gold and silver at home were worthless. Wing and fly.Hearing the news, he was furious, blew his beard and stared, beat and scolded himself, and tore his clothes.When he thought of the bamboo basket fetching water in vain, he became more and more angry, and he must try to make up for the loss.So he sent his younger brother Belsu out to look for the whereabouts of Zubailu, but after Beiersu went out, there was no news and he never came back.He got impatient with waiting, so he went out in person, and inquired about Belsu's whereabouts and Zubailu's whereabouts with ulterior motives.He walked through the streets and alleys, as far as the backcountry, and finally, being tricked by fate, he came to the kingdom ruled by Zubailu.

The day he entered the city coincided with the first month of the month, that is, the day when the king gave a banquet to the people. The doors and windows on the street were closed, deserted and deserted.He felt very strange, so he asked the women looking out from the window where the people were going.Someone told him: "Every month at the beginning of the month, the king hosts a banquet to entertain the people of Li. Now is the time for people to go to the banquet. And on the days of the banquet, men must go to the banquet as scheduled, and cannot stay at home or stay in the shop alone." They also Show him the place of the banquet.In this way, Rashton hurried to the king's banquet, intending to mix with the crowd and have a big meal.

After he stumbled into the square, he looked up and saw that people were eating in full swing, every table was full, and there was no place to stand, only the table where Bersu and Cudi had sat, The seat next to Tangfan was still empty. He rushed over, sat down, and immediately started eating and drinking.At this time, the king Zu Bailu ordered to the left and right without thinking: "Hurry up and catch that guy who eats sugar rice!" Because of what happened earlier, the attendants knew that it was Rashton that the king wanted to arrest, so they ran over, caught him, and brought him before the king for trial.

"You damn thing! Who are you? What line of business do you do? What are your plans for coming here?" King Zubailu began to interrogate. "Reporting to His Majesty the king, the grassroots man's name is Lustu, he is just a vagrant, an ordinary person." Rashton tried to deceive the king across the sea. The king, Zu Bailu, did not want to talk to him for now.She just told the attendant: "Bring me the sand table and copper pen." The attendants obeyed his order, and quickly brought the sand table and copper pen, so the king Zu Bailu picked up the pen, wrote and drew on the sand table with a calm expression, and pretended to concentrate on divination, staring at the sand table carefully, thinking for a while , she suddenly raised her head, looked straight at Rashton, and said, "You bastard! Even the king dared to deceive you. I figured out your background from divination. Your name is Rashton, and you are a Christian pretending to be a Muslim. Specializes in abducting Muslim women for a living. I have always done all kinds of crimes, but I have always been at large. Today is the time for your death, and it is time to plead guilty. Now you don’t hurry to confess! If you deny it again and want to escape the crime, I will take your Dog's life."

After hearing the king's to-the-point words, Rashton knew that he could not deny it, so he bowed his head and confessed, stammering: "Reporting to His Majesty the King, your assertions are indeed true, and the small ones deserve death." So the king, Zubailu, without hesitation, ordered his attendants to press Rashton to the ground, punished him with a hundred boards on each thigh on the spot, and added a thousand lashes, and then sentenced him to death. Dispose of his body in the same way as Bersu and Cudi. The sentence was over and the criminal was hauled away for law enforcement.

King Zu Bailu instructed the courtiers to entertain the common people well, telling them to eat and drink without worry.So the banquet continued, and people drank and enjoyed themselves calmly again, until they were full of wine and food, and then they left happily.King Zu Bailu was also satisfied, and happily returned to the palace, saying gratefully: "Praise be to Allah! Help me to find revenge for these villains who hijacked me and abused me one after another. I am deeply comforted. It is the arrangement of the Lord." Then she chanted joyfully: "The rampant villain, Temporarily rampant and presumptuous.

Suddenly the world reversed, punishing tyrants and eradicating evil. Their wrongdoing has since been wiped out, It seems that there has never been a victim in the world.
