Seven Horses and a Price
Once there was a kingdom. There was a king who ruled over whole kingdom. The king had seven sons. They lived together in Palace. The king was found of gardening. He used to purchase different kind of flowers from different kingdoms. But in the flowering season there was not even single bloom in his garden. Because of that the king was very upset. One day he called his Bishop to solve this problem.
Bishop :- my lord! This is the flowering season. If we announce a good
price to the kingdom’s people. It may possible someone solve this problem. They
may find a solution to flowers garden.
King :- Then announced that, if anyone able to flowering my garden I
will give half of the kingdom to them.
The Drummer of the king announced this news through out the
kingdom.
The King’s sons got afraid to lose half of there kingdom. So, they went
to his father except the youngest Prince.
The elder one :- father, it is not fair. We don’t want to share our
kingdom with anyone.
The king :- I already announced, Decision can’t be changed. But I can do
one favour to you all. Before the kingdom’s people you can try to resolve this
problem first.
Now the question arises who will go first? They all collectively
decided elder ones go first (the descending order was decided).
First night :- the elder son took the drummer, elephants, horses and
music band. It all were making very loud noise. So that no one can sleep. The
elder prince saw a bloom. He got relief and they all get sleep. There was very
melodious sound in their ears. They didn’t want to woke up. As they woke up in
the morning, there was not even single bloom. This happened same to all the
five Prince who come before the youngest one.
On the seventh Night, when the youngest Prince was going to protect the
garden’s flower. He was called by his eldest sister-in-law. She tied a very
sharp knife on his waist and gave a mixture of grind green chillies and salt as
application if he get wounded.
Prince :- Started laughing! My dear Sister-in-law; I am not going at
war.
Sister-in-law :- just keep it!
The youngest one took the drummer, elephants, Horses and music band
towards the garden. Same happened to them, Everyone fall sleep at mid night
with that melodious sound. Suddenly the prince hand was cut with knife. He woke
up still somewhere unconscious but he remembered about the application which
was given by his sister-in-law. As he applied he felt terrible pain as chilli
got its contact with his wound.
He was completely in conscious now. Suddenly he saw seven horses in his
garden. They were in seven different colours. They had wing and they were
talking like humans.
The white horse :- the king is a fool. He wanted to protect his garden’s
flower from the heaven’s horse. And his sons are more foolish them him. They
all started laughing loudly.
The prince :- he was very angry, after hearing all this. But he
controlled his anger and used his mind. As it was mid night it was completely
dark due to dark moon day. He quietly lay down a trap for them. As the they
were walking the rope get tighter. Soon the rope completely tight enough to
catch them. Now there can’t walk further.
The horses :- in anger voice :- who is this? Who ever dare to catch the
heaven’s horse. Show me your face.
The prince come out with a very strong bamboo stick. I dared my Lord in
very psychic voice.
He started beating to each one the horses. Who among you ware saying my
father and brother as a fool. Most importantly you were calling me a fool. You
all will be punish
Now the horse started saying leave me my Lord!
They started flapping their wings. In very loud voice don’t even
try to fly you rats! Other side of rope was tie up with hundreds elephant’s
legs if they woke up and start running think what will happened to you
all.
The purple horse :- we can’t come here again, leave us please!
Prince :- How you all will be come, if you all will be my prisoners. He
smile!
The purple horse :- there is an offer for you. If you free us all. I
will give you seven magical flowers we were bound to it. Whenever you through
any flower in the air same colour of horse will appear as that of flower’s
colour.
Prince :- making you all prisoners is not beneficial to me. This offer
is more beneficial so I will accept that but first give me the calling
flowers.
The purple horse gave him seven different flower then he sat him free.
Now, they all fly back to heaven.
In the morning, the garden was full with flowers. The king was very
happy. He gave him half of his kingdom.
The elder brothers got angry with the decision and they all were left
their kingdom in anger. The prince’s sister-in-law was crying. So Prince
promised to her that he will bring back his bother to their home.
