24---On Twenty Fourth day when King
Bhoj went to sit on King Vikramaditya’s throne,Twenty Fourth Female statue
Karunawati stopped him.
Karunavati began a story—
Every night King Vikramaditya as an
ordinary man visited all over his kingdom to find out his people are fine or
not.One night he saw a rope hanging from the window of a rich man’s house.He
climbed up with the help of that rope.He heard one lady was saying some one”Go
and kill my husband he is sleeping in the next room”A Man said,” No,I can’t do
it ,I love you but I can not kill any body,You come with me I will keep you
very happy.”
The lady said,” Then I will have to
do this work,First let me collect all the wealth and valuables “
King Vikramaditya understood that the
lady was rich businessman’s wife and the man was a thief,so he came down with
the help of rope.and waited there for the thief.After some time he came
down.King Vikramaditya caught him and said,” I am King Vikramaditya,tell me
what were you doing in this rich businessman’s house.
Yje Thief got scared and said,”Your
Majesty ! I am Sheeldas, Bhanupriya,The rich man’s wife and me are childhood
lovers,but could not get married.My father was a rich business.Once he was
robbed and killed by some pirates during
his business voyage.
My father left a huge debt upon me.
To take revenge,I entered in their group and killed them one by one.When I
returned with big wealth I found This Businessman got married with her.I was
upset.Once when she came to her parents house I met her.Next day I wanted to
give her a precious Necklace but she returned back with her husband.I came to
meet her here,she asked me to kill her husband but I denied. She now collecting
all the wealth and wants to run with me silently.
King Vikramaditya said,” You have
done wise thing that you did not lie,but it is not wise to love marry a married
woman.She loves you is your misunderstanding ,she was ready to come with you
because you wanted to present her a valuable necklace.She is ready to kill her
husband is very strange thing.
Sheeldas then requested to
forgive.King forgave him and appointed as soldier in army.Next day King Vikramadity
went to the rich man’s house in Sheeldas’s getup,when Bhanupriya saw him,she
thought he is Sheeldas.She took all the valuables and quickly came down.She
said,” I have poisoned my husband,but when she did not get a reply,she pulled
his beard.She began to scream thief thief.Just then King’s soldiers caught
her,she was told every thing,she also drank poison and died.
Karunavati asked,” Have you ever done
justice like King Vikramaditya ? If no then how can you sit on this throne.Raja
Bhoj moved back.
