Please come into the house.
Where is your palace, Royal Highness? -Lawo,Royal highness.

If so possibly unavoiding to His majesty Chairaja.
What is the position of princess consort.Royal highness?
Wait for the right time to come.
Do you want go play with those girls?.
If that's so then go ahead.
I have come down from Pitsanuloke this time.
To warn His Majesty that the Northern provinces is no longer loyal to Ayothaya.
The reason? His Majesty appears to have lost interest in the affairs of his Kingdom.
He seems not even to care that the new King of Taungoo dynasty went and thumbed his nose at the Mon people in Hongsawadi.
with a mere 500 soldiers.
Do you know why he went there?
To stage a puncturing ceremony at at Shwe-mawdaw Temple.
Hundreds upon hundreds of Mon soldiers quaking with fear of a single child.
Surely, as the Second King,His Majesty trusted you to handle these matters on his behalf.
That's not the reason.It's because he can think of nothing but his new consort. He's infatuated.
The land is about on fire.
Because his majesty infatuated a young girl.
And the aristocracies, the queen's relatives, they also take adventage of cheating to get money.
Because he appears to have lost interest at all.
And soon Ayothaya might be broken in pieces.
And that day.
King Tabinshwehti, He would lead military to attacked Ayothaya for sure.
In 1533 D.C.,The year of the snake.
Has the smallpox outbreak. A lot of people are dying.
Promise.
No,Not a promise but a swear
You are willing to let the Prince Ratthathirajakumara have the throne.
Regarding to his right.
Swear.
You two won't *** the throne, it belongs to prince Ratthathirajkumara.
I swear,His majesty the king.
Swear...
I,......Swear,His majesty the king.
Long live his majesty the king.
Long live his majesty the king.
Tabinshwehti's camp outside of the Bassein city.
The great king Nor-phuttangkul passed away.
This is the right time that Toungoo will wage war to attack Ayothaya.
After we attack bassien city. Then we should hurry and attack Ayothaya.
Otherwise we can gain the soldiers from Bassian city to join us also.
This war shouldn't take a long time.
Their are a lot of our soldiers.
Slow down his majesty the king.
I think,Taoungoo wasn't ready to attack Ayothaya at this time
So what's your opinion master?.
Eventhough The king Nor-Phuttangkul passed away.But if Taoungoo army cross the Ayothaya's border line.
Anytime the viceroy Chairaja, who rules Pissanuloke city,He will lead the army to *** the throne from King Ratthathiraj-
for keeping Ayothaya.The viceroy Chairaja is such an expert warrior.We definitely shouldn't to look down on him.
The master's word has touched me.
Alright.Right now we have to break through Bassien first.
I need to step on Bassien before dawn tomorrow.
Fire!!!
From now on you're no longer Kim-hung the Chinese merchant at Nai kai canal anymore.
If that so Who am I then?
You're Luang Chodukerajasetthi.Belong to Department of Chinese people Administration.
Has the ability and the absolute right to set all of the products prices even inbound and outbound.
Can I do that really.? -Of course you can.Because I am regent.
in the King Ratthathirajakumara.I can appointing anyone.The royal signet can make up to be Royal Command

1,000 kg.is 8.1 Bath.
If it be like this,How can I have a money to treat my company then.
And what about the another things?. -Everything all go up price.Royal highness.
Especially the products from China and Portuguese the price go up double.Following as Luang Choduke- would want to setting.
Just what I thought about Kim-hung he's on the background.
So how much money still left in our treasury.Sir Pinit
Much enough for support everyone's life until the harvest season.
We have to have enough money for buying the weapons,ฺัto buy Portuguese's armour for Prince Thien's soldiers.
Well I think we have to use the old stuffs as we had for now.
No Cannot do that.All the old weapons we had today,Everything is be damaged.
Eventhogh the soldiesr's outfits and uniforms.It's a precious things that esteem prince Tien's hornour too.
If I let it's be an old,Not looking nice I am afraid of to be a scandal.
Take this stuff to pawn with Seng.At pak klong nai kai.Probably can change to be alot of money.
And much enough to buy the necessary stuff for prince Tien's soldier camp possibly.
But this is the old treasure from your mother isn't it?
The outside body treasure does not important as prince Tient's honor my husband.
I have to see the prince.But the prince didn't wake up yet.ฺBut this is matter of the life and death.
What's happening.?
The viceroy Chairaja lead the rebellion.He lead his soldiers from Pissanolok to enter to the palace for capturing the trone.
His majesty,
Sanphet prasat palace.In 1534 D.C,in year of the horse.
The prince Yaowaraj please help me. -Come here.
Put your weapons down,Right away.
Why are you doing this?.
Because you already gave the swear word.
You will accept the prince Ratthathirajakumara be the king.
You already gave a swear word in front of holy things.
What do you suggest I do?
Let the people go on suffering,as they are suffering now?
Spare me your hypocrisy.You want the throne!
It's as simple as that ,It was mine from the beginning.
But I took pity on a dying man.For five long months, kept careful watch to see how the Regent and his cronies-
would rule the Kingdom Since Ratthathiraj came to power
the city has been in turmoil.Even worse, many provinces have switched their allegiance from Ayothaya to Taoungoo.
Sooner or later,Ayothaya will be overrun
and succomb to the power and might of King Tabilshweti.
For this reason.I had to break my oath to a late King.
What will happen to the boy?
Where are you, Mummy?
Mummy! Where are you?
I'm frightened!.Help me!
Take me back to bed. -I want to go back to sleep.
-Wait. Let the Lady Worachan attend to His Majesty.
I'm frightened.Hush, there's no need to be afraid.I'm here. I'm right beside you.
Children song.
Mummy! Where are you?
Mummy!
