"Jabaan sambhal kar baat kijiye, varna ham bhul jayenge ki aap hamari badi ammi hain"
"Get a hold of your tongue otherwise I will forget that you are my badi ammi" He growled in anger stepping ahead.
I shook with the intensity of his voice and she also took a step back in fear.
"Aap ko ilm bhi hai ki aap kya bol rahi hain? Itni chhoti hain wo abhi ; or ham? hampar tohmat laga rahi hai aap?"
"Do you even know what are you saying ? She is so young ; and me? you are imputing me?" he again spatted in heavy intimidating voice.
"Ham wahi keh rahe hain jo dikh raha hai Shahenshah, or sach bhi yahi lag raha hai"
"I am saying what is visible Shahenshah, and this looks like reality too" she said in loud voice making the king more furious.
"Now that you have considered me the King I would like to handle this matter in court. You have insulted and raised your voice on the king in front of 6 maids, 4 soldiers and also put on false allegations on the respected guest of our kingdom. You have tried to degrade the King and Shahjadi of another kingdom. Be ready to face the consequences." He said in very dangerous voice almost killing her with his glares.
"Hame ilm hai ki aap bas mauka talash rahe the hame saza dene ka, hamare beto ko saza dekar pet nahi bhara na aapka, ab hame bhi apne raste se hatana chahte hai? par yaad rakhiye esa hone nahi denge ham, jo hak hamara hai wo lekar hi rahenge ham."
"I know that you are finding ways to punish me, your wish did not fulfilled by punishing my sons now that you are trying to aside me too from your path? but remember one thing I will not let this happen at any cost, I will take my rightful thing definitely" she said to him breathing heavily and went out angrily.
King gazed her in anger and glared at me.
"Aaap kya kar rahi hain yaha? "
"What are you doing here?" he shouted at me making me shiver at my place.
"Ham yaha raat bitane aaye the Shahenshah"
"I was here to spent a night Shahenshah" I said to him in low voice.
He looked at me for sometime quietly. I could not comprehend his face.
"Ya allah, do you even know what does that mean and who let you enter here without my permission?" He asked me.
"Your guards did not stopped me" I replied in a jiffy.
"Jafar Khan, Anurag singh " He again shouted on top of his lungs.
"Ji shahenshah" both the guards arrived"
"Why did you let her in without my permission?" He questioned angrily.
"Shahenshah she stayed last night here because she was attacked the night before that; and We thought that you asked her to stay here at night for the security purpose. We are sorry if anything wrong." One of them said bowing down.
"Do you have any idea what will be the consequences of this mess, just because you decided to use your brain and did not even consider asking anyone?" He again growled.
"We are sorry sir, will not repeat this mistake in future." One of them said.
"Just get out of my sight before I kill you" He threaten them being severely angry.
I just did not get the entire thing, how is it wrong, me staying in king's another chamber for just one night. Its not like I have kicked out your dear King from his chamber or I have stolen your king's bedsheets and flower vase.
The bedsheets and flower vase are seriously so good.
But that black old lady, what did she meant by warming king's bed? How I am suppose to do that ? And why do the king need to warm his bed in such scorching summer?
They all have gone mad. Yeah, I need to leave this place as soon as possible.
"I shall take your leave Shahenshah" I asked him politely.
"Yes please." He said in frustrated tone.
What's with him and anger. Why is he angry every time, snapping at others for no reason. I thought to myself and walked out of his chamber heading to my room. when I stepped in my chamber I saw all three maids who were assigned for me standing together discussing something. One is of my mother's age, Sakeena apa, everyone call her like this and two of them are in their early twenties: Iqra and Nadiya.
"Shehzadi sahiba are you fine?" All of them asked me in unison as I come to their sight.
"Yes I am but what happen?" I asked not understanding the underlaying reason for their concern.
"Princess you slept in king's chamber yesternight?" Iqra asked me.
"Ji " I replied.
"Do you know what are the rumors going on in palace princess?" Nadiya asked me looking tensed.
"What? If something concerning me then tell me." I asked sitting on the bed.
"Shehzadi sahiba maids were saying that you were caught red handed with shahenshah sleeping in his chamber. You are here to ... here to ... umm...warm his bed." Iqra said and I frowned after hearing it.
"No this is wrong, I did not slept with king in his chamber I was in adjacent one." I declared being furious for wrong allegations.
"And what does that mean, warming the bed? That black clothed lady also shouted at me same thing few moments ago." I asked them hoping to know the meaning.
They looked at each other tensed and bowed down.
"Tell me" I demanded again.
"Shehjadi it means you are here as a women for king to provide bodily pleasure. You are not married to him and that chamber is specifically for the future Queen so they are bad mouthing about you being king's umm...mis...mistress." Sakeena aapa finished and the Earth slipped through my feet.
I know about the mistress thing, people consider those girls as shameless and they stay with another men without marriage. Those girls are called home breaker and characterless. But I don't know what the actual thing is. This question is in my head since I heard of them for the first time. But no one cleared it, They just said me that you will get to know when you will be big enough.
They are not given respect and seen with stinky gaze.
But why they called me in such a disrespecting way. How dare she called me with that word. I will not bear this when I have done nothing wrong. Not at all.
"Where will be Shahenshah this time?" I asked those maids in raged voice
"He will be in the Deewan e khas Shahjadi." She replied.
(DEEWAN E KHAS was the court in ancient times where matters of the kingdom discussed between officials.
DEEWAN E AAM was the court where common people's plea was heard )
I then headed towards the court with one of them guiding me with my head bursting out in anger and my eyes deep red.
______
I was up early so I went to practice, later I was coming back to my room when I heard badi ammi yelling
At whom she was yelling when I am here?
Laced with confusion I stepped inside and found Shehzadi ISHWASA standing in front of her and she was yelling at her on top of her lungs.
Hold on ! What is Shehzadi Ishwasa doing here?
I interrupted her shouting only to get blamed by her. She blamed for having affair with Shehzadi when I did not even know that she was staying at my Queen's chamber.
She poured out venom from her mouth and I could not help but shout at her. The last ounce of tolerance left my body and I snapped at her in my heavy raged voice when she accused me for using the little girl for my pleasure. What she think about me? If I am trying to respect her considering her as my badi ammi it does not mean she got right to blame me.
I had enough of her.
I declared her to show up in court for disrespecting THE KING and she again rubbed those hurtful words on my face when I gave her death glare she left the chamber.
My patience was hanging on a thin line. What I have done to face my own family against me? And she being the main enemy do not leave a single stone unturned to make me feel low, to degrade me. The more I am trying to be nice with her to mend things with her, the more she creates chaos.
ENOUGH of all this now.
I looked at Shehzadi Ishwasa standing there; her face laced with confusion.
"Aap kya kar rahi hain yaha? "
What are you doing here?" I shouted at her making her shiver.
Control Mubariz.
"Ham yaha raat bitane aaye the Shahenshah"
"I was here to spent a night Shahenshah" Came her reply and I jerked my neck towards her in shock. Don't tell me she said that and too without any hesitation.
I looked at her for sometime trying to fit the thing she said to me in my head. Then something clicked in my mind, she probably does not even know the meaning behind badi ammi's words. Considering her age this could be possible.
Okay so this was the reason she was silent throughout the conversation. If she had known that badi ammi was putting on such undignified allegations on her then as much as I know her she would have waged a war against her.
But how did she get in here. I asked her and as soon as she replied I called both of my oh so intelligent guards inside. As I thought already they did use their superpowered brain and pushed me into another chaos.
I dismissed them very politely and Ishwasa too wanted to take leave.
Oh PLEASE little tornado. I will be very much pleased if you would take your leave I thought to myself and asked her to leave.
I need to do something as soon as possible.
I was getting ready for the court when Baaz came panting.
"What the hell did you do Ariz. Do you even know what gossips are going on in whole palace." He yelled at me.
"Firstly stop yelling at me for god's sake and what I have done to be on the top list of gossips today?" I almost shouted at him.
"Well the breaking news is that You are caught red handed with Shehzadi Ishwasa and she had spent two nights with you. Now care to explain the havoc you have created." he told me everything in calm tone.
Before I explain anything to him we heard announcement of Ammi jaan entering.
Can this morning be more peaceful? I don't think so.
"What I am listening Ariz. You and Shehzaadi? She is such a young and innocent soul. How could you do this with her. I will never forgive you...". She was lashing out on me when I interrupted her.
"Let me explain Ammi Jaan." I politely said to her maintaining eye contact.
She was not ready to listen to me but I insisted more and she agreed half heartedly. I made her sit on my bed and Baaz too sat along with me and explained them whole thing.
"Do not stretch this matter more. Summon Fatima apa in private along with Maulvi sahab and punish her but do not drag this matter in court. This will not be good for Shehzadi. Her dignity would be at stake, it will not matter whether she will be proven innocent or not she will have to carry this degrading spot on her character for whole life. This society is not good for girls. And we can not just let any innocent soul's life be destroyed because of any false allegation. I will handle the rumors in my way." She declared leaving no room for arguments.
She is right. I should be more careful because its not just about me its about her self respect that she love more than her life.
I took a quick action.
I summoned Maulvi sahab and senior minister in my meeting chamber in presence of Ammi jaan and Baaz and ordered to call badi ammi too.
She tried her dirty tricks one more time but I dodged everything aside and proved my authenticity in front of maulvi sahab and senior minister.
Later I punished her to serve the Mosque for one whole month by staying there in common quarters ;helping and serving poor people. This is more than death sentence for her because I deprive her of any royal treatment and disallowed her to enter palace too.
Atleast there will be peace for one month. Hash, I took a deep breath and dismissed them.
I do not care what she think about me anymore.
I was already late for the court so I hurriedly got ready and visited there.
Baaz showed all the things to whole court that he got from different hidden places of Anwar Khan and I declared prison for him till he is not proven innocent and ordered Baaz to continue investigation.
"I am announcing new Army Chief as Adwan bhaijaan is no more and Anwar khan is behind the bars for his wrong doings." I begin the announcements and every person of the court looked at me in astonishment and curiosity. Few of them straightened hopping for their name to come up.
I looked at baaz and announced.
"The new Army chief will be Shahzade ARHAM SAIF UD DIN KHAN." As soon as I finished the court became a fish market.
I expected this.
"How can you do this Shahenshah, he is illegitimate child of Marhum Army chief sir. How could he be at such a higher position."
"Yes Shanhenshah, he is not the right person to give such a big responsibility."
All of them accused Arham and questioned my decision. Baaz to looked at me in shock but the smile that show up after the realization that it is happening, it was worth seeing. Arham who was today on the duty to be guard of the main entrance of the courtroom looked at me in panic. He was also unaware about it.
"KHAMOSH."
"Quite" I growled. The whole court room stilled and there was not a single sound. Everyone looked at me in fear.
"Firstly, I have taken this decision with complete consideration. I have been through every aspect and after a lot of discussion I am making the rightful person our Army Chief.
Secondly, Just because he is illegitimate it did not make him less skilled or less trustworthy. Where were you all when he was being treated with such a disrespect even after being son of bade abba jaan. Now everyone have problem when he is getting his rights.
Moreover I want a person to be loyal to me and kingdom and serve the nation with honesty. I do not want any stamp of legitimation and repeat the same mistake again. I do not even worry about the fact that you all are happy with my decision or not. He is the Army Chief and this is final."
I said the last line looking at Arham who was having tears in his eyes. You deserve it boy. I smiled at him
"Takhliya" after dismissing the court I asked him to follow me.
I entered my meeting chamber with Baaz and Arham. But the sight in front of me made me speechless.
It was Shehzaadi ISHWASA..
