Aladdin found the way went to their wedding room first. Aladdin's mother on purpose let princess realize him who was rounded by crowd of others. She's satisfied because Aladdin was young and handsome.
"I will be the poorest person my princess," said Aladdin, raised her hand and gave it a kiss, "if my wish getting married with you make you unhappy. However, it's not only my fault. Your beauty itself charmed me."
"My groom," said the princess, "Now I'll say what I think. I come here following my father words and while I'm here, I want to say that I don't repent."
Her answered satisfied Aladdin. He happily grabbed her hand, led to living room where his jinnee had prepared a meal. The room was decorated by lamps, candles and roses, beautiful and romantic. There were delicious-looking food on golden dishes setting on the table. The knives and forks were made of silve. All of them, things on the table, were precies and glittering. Princess Badsoulboudour had never seen much riches focusing at a place like that, although, she was daughter of a powerful king.
"I have never thought will find out somewhere which's more beautiful than my father's castle but I'm wrong. This room is more beautiful than things I can image." said princess.
"Princess," said Aladdin, leading her to her seat, "honestly, I know I should believe in which."
Music resounded up as Aladdin, his mother and princess Bodsoulboudour had been on their seats. Musicans played and singers sang till their dinner finished. Badsoulboudour had never heard the great voices before she didn't know that the singers were nymphs chosen by the jinnee. Things were brought after that, dancers appeared and started dancing. They danced many different dances and it's ended by a couple dancing in gentle music. Midnight was coming, following their culture, the groom and his bride were the last people dancing and finishing the wedding. Aladdin grabbed his bride, led her went to middle of the room while dancers stood aside. Aladdin and princess danced so well, they got praises from others. At last, the wedding finished, Aladdin still held his wife's hand, directed her pass other rooms to come their wedding room. Maids help the bride take off coat while the slaves also did that with Aladdin. They followed their master and mastress to the wedding bed then left. The party completely finished.
The next morning, slaves had stood besides his bed as he woke up. They wore on him another clothes which was beautiful as like the clothes he put on the last day. A horse was brought to. Aladdin mounted on the horse rode straight toward king's castle with escorts. The king welcomed and treated him as good as he had at the first time. He hugged and kissed then let Aladdin sit besides. After that, he ordered servants to prepare a meal but Aladdin stopped him.
"My king, my dear father," he said, "allow me not to receive your favour. Today, I come here with a purpose inviting you, prime mandarin and others to come and have lunch with me."
The king happily agreed. He stood up and because the distance from his castle to Aladdin's castle was short so he wanted to walked. The escorts were the prime mandarin and Aladdin in the left and right of the king, courtiers after them and alsmost soldiers going ahead. The more close the more beautiful the king felt about Aladdin's castle. It got much difference that the king only could admired each of rooms he got pass. At last, Aladdin led him to the living room where had twenty windows with bamboo screens decorated by gems, diamonds, ruby,... in big size and large number. The king couldn't speak for awhile he's too surprised. After that, he turned to prime mandarin who was besides him now.
"I can't be." said the king, his mind still be shocked, "Why I don't know about it, a great beautiful and magnificent castle in my country and besides, very close my place?"
"My king," said the prime mandarin, "Don't you remember? Just two days before, Aladdin, your son-in-law begged you to build a castle opposite your castle and you allowed. You remember? Before sundown, front of your castle was empty but the next moring a new castle was built at there. And, I was the person who had informed you."
"I remember but," said the king, "this castle's a wonder. How you can find any castle on this world which is paved by gold and silver blocks instead of bricks as normal? Where you can find bamboo screens which are decorated by perfect big size gems, diamonds, ruby... like them? No way!"
The king spent time admiring each bamboo screen. Twenty three bamboo screens were perfect same while the twenty fourth was not complete.
"Too strange, prime mandarin," said the king, turning to his closest courtier, "Why is the screen not complete?"
"My king," answered the king, "I think Aladdin didn't have enough time to decorate it, not because he didn't have enough gems, diamonds, ruby or things like those. I believe he don't lack those things."
Aladdin went back he had left to directed his slaves for awhile.
"Son," said the king, "This place is amazing and things I admired most are screens. However, I mention that one of the screen isn't complete. Can you tell me why? You didn't have enough time, materials or because of other reasons."
"My king, my dear father, I told craftsmen to do that on purpose." said Aladdin, "I want you, my king will complete this room and I, the owner will never forget your favour."
"If it's your intention son, I'll be pleased to help you completing it." said the king satisfiedly.
The king ordered servants to bring the wealthies jewelery traders and the greatest craftsmen in capital to there. After that, Aladdin led him to a room where a meal had been prepared. Munites later, princess Badsoulboudour appeared. She happily hugged and kissed her father. She showed him that she was satisfied about that wedding. Two table had filled full of food. The king, princess, Aladdin and prime mandarin sat on a table while others joined in the other. Food's so good the king admitted that he had never enjoyed any meal more delicious. Wine was the best, what he talked about it. He praised all appliance using in their meal. He like the music which was played in whole the meal. All things made it become a wonderful lunch.
A servant came and informed the king that jewelery traders and craftsmen had come. The king went back the room and let the people see the screen not complete.
"I summon you all here to complete this screen. I want it to resemble the others. Watch them carefully." said the king.
Jewelery trader and craftsmen watched carefully the screens then had a fast discussion. Later, the went to their king.
"My king, my wise and powerful king, we are willing to use our skill and complete that screen but it's a great work that we need lot of material. We have never seen a large number of jewel like that." they said.
"I have," said the king, "and I think what I have enough for you finish it. Go to my castle and take what you need."
The king gave them a large number of jewel which he received from Aladdin but it's not enough. All of the jewel and besides jewel the prime mandarin lent was only enough for them to complete half of the screen.
Aladdin knew that the king would never complete the screen though he tried. Therefore, he told craftsmen to stopped, removed jewel on the screen then asked them to return. The effort of craftsmen in six weeks was distroyed in few hours. They left Aladdin alone in the room going to king's castle. Aladdin rubbed on his magical lamp. The jinnee appeared at one.
"I ordered you not to complete a bamboo screen and you did." said Aladdin, "Now I want you to complete it."
The jinnee disappeared with a pop. Aladdin left for awhile. Later, he came back and the bamboo screen had completed, indentical to all others.
Craftsmen had arrived to king's castle. They were met the king. The leader of them brought the jewel, returned their king.
"My king," said the leader, "we've spent much time used all our skills to decorate the not-completed screen. However, Aladdin, your son-in-law not only stopped us, he also destroyed whole of our effort."
The king asked them for reason but they replied him that Aladdin didn't talk them. He let craftsmen leave then ordered people to prepare a horse. He rode straight to Aladdin's castle, only brought some courtiers with him. He got down and immediately went in the room where twenty four bamboo screens were, not informed to his law-in-law, Aladdin. However, Aladdin knew he was there in time to welcome him. The king didn't give Aladdin's time to explain, he said immediately.
"Son," he said, "Why don't you let craftsmen complete your living room?" "It's amazing for me and everyone in this world but it's not completed son." the king stressed.
Aladdin didn't wanted the king to know that he didn't have enough jewel to waste in that screen. He knew that not only his king's castle but all castles on the world also were normal if they were placed besides it.
"My king, my father," said Aladdin, "as you knew this room wasn't completed but you see it has been finished."
The king went straight to the twenty fourth screen and watched. The king didn't believe in his eyes thought he's wrong he looked at screens besides. Of course, all of them were perfect compeleted. Nothing could expressed king's surprise, he hugged and kissed on Aladdin's forehead.
"Son, who are you?" said the king, "Why can you do the magics? The more I know about you, the more I admire you."
"My king, it's my honor receiving praise from you. I will not forget your praises and always make myself better to be worthy with favours you give me."
The king turned back his castle by the way he came, didn't need Aladdin to escort him. The prime mandarin was waiting the king at the gate of castle. The king happily told him what he just saw. After hearing words, the prime mandarin affirmed surely that Aladdin's castle was a bewitched castle. He told the king his thinking but the king interupted.
"You've told me that, prime mandarin. I think you have never forgetten the wedding of your son with my daughter."
The prime mandarin didn't want to ruin his king's happiness so he didn't talk more. He left. From the time Aladdin's castle appeared, the king had a habit. Every morning, as he woke up, he went to an empty room which had windows heading to Aladdin's castle. He would stay here and admired Aladdin's castle for munites.
Aladdin didn't spend much time in castle, he used to go out, coming to church, prime mandarin's house or king's courtiers' houses who he used to invited to come his castle. Every time he went out, some slaves would go with him, toss coins on streets or crowded square. No beggar felt not satisfied as they came to his gate. Aladdin went hunting at least one time a week. Some times, he only went hunting around the city but some times, he went farer. However, he's always generous with people he met. Many people got favour from him. They praised and loved him even more than their king. Honestly, Aladdin treated people very kind. However, Aladdin didn't want his reputation to cover over king's name he used to come castle and participate in conferences there. He always heightened national benefits and ardently solved national problems in his ability. Then, rebels appeared in the country. Immediately, an army was set up and Aladdin was the person who requested to direct the army. The king allowed and they left. By talent, intelligence and courage, Aladdin easily destroyed the rebels. His name one more time spead out in the country but Aladdin wasn't proud. He still lived the way he had, be kind and generous with everyone.
Years got pass, Aladdin still lived his life till the Africa witch who had given Aladdin the chance to have his most wealth now had come back Africa and suddenly remembered to him. Of course, he believed Aladdin had died in the tunnel he had buried in. However, he wanted to confirm that Aladdin had died. He took out a box, put it on table. Then, leveled sands in it then drawed in sand surface some things, watched and counted. Course, he was good in future-telling. Instead of seeing Aladdin died in tunnel, he found out Aladdin had escaped from that time and had a very good life, husband of princess, be respected. His body trembled because of anger.
"He did find out the power of the lamp." he grunted, "He is coming in fortune which should have belonged to me. I swear to regain things belonging to me though I have to die."
Africa witch didn't wasted time, he set off the next morning. He didn't stopped if it's not necessary. He went cross many cities, countries and only stopped for his horse to rest. He rode straight to capital where Aladdin and his wife lived as he arrived to China. He stopped at an inn, rent a room and had a night at there.
Next morning, he left wandering around city to hear about Aladdin. He went to places where wealthy and high-status people used to come. He went to the tea shop he had ever come before. Waiter brought him a glass of tea immediately as he sat down. Surround him, now, was crowds of people who were excitingly talking about Aladdin's castle. He approached some of them.
"What castle are you talking about?" asked Africa witch, pretending he didn't know little about thing they were talking about.
"Where are you from man?" said one of the people surprisingly, "You must come from a distant place. Only it, you don't see or hear about prince consort Aladdin's castle. I must say you it's a wonder but no wonder on this world can be bigger, more luxurious and magnificent than it. I wonder where you are from man. People only talked about it from the time the castle was built. Come and take a look, you will find out what I did say is true."
"Forgive me," said Africe witch, "I come from the place which is the end of Africa and just came here last night. When I left my hometown, the name of Aladdin's castle still didn't spread to there and besides of my business, I have to hurry to here, not to stop anywhere on my way to hear or talk about it. So I don't know little about things you just did say. I feel so impatient that I will find the way to that castle and admire it. Could you lead me to there?"
The person directed so Africa witch could easily find Aladdin's castle. He stayed there watched that castle carefully. He's sure that Aladdin had used slave of magical lamp to build his castle. Too angry because of what Aladdin had, happiness, wealth and respect, he went back the inn and planned. To perform his plan, he had to know where Aladdin placed magical lamp. Of course, he could discover it by future-telling. He took out his sand box and did what he had done many times.
"I will push him down abyss of hopeless and no one can prevent me." he grunted.
"It's unlucky to Aladdin as he had left three days before for eight-day hunting and didn't bring magical lamp with him. Africa witch came back Aladdin's castle, got the chance talking with the guard of castle.
"Because of the curious, I come here and admire this wonderful castle." said Africa witch, "But I still don't feel satisfied before I meet the owner. Thought he's a great man."
"It's not difficult to meet him." said the guard, "He usually go out. However, now he is not in castle he left to participate in eight-day hunting."
Africa witch didn't want to know more. He said goodbye the guard then left.
"It's the time to act." he thought. He found the way to a lamp store and asked the owner.
"I need a dozen of lamps. Do you have?" he said.
The owner said that he didn't have enough and told him to wait till next morning. He agreed directed the owner to make lamps carefully he want they all were beautiful. After that, he left coming back his inn.
The next morning, he came back to lamp store, received twelve lamps then gave the owner the money he wanted. He brought the basket of twelve lamps went straight to Aladdin's castle. When he approached it,
"Change an old lamp into a new. Does anyone want a new lamp?" he said loudly and repeated the words again.
Children curiously followed him. They whispered then giggled. Passengers laughed at him as they heard he advertised. They thought he was a madman. Course, Africa witch didn't surprise about children's and passengers' behaviors. He continued advertising.
"Change an old lamp into a new. Does anyone want a new lamp."
He wandered in square between king's castle and Aladdin's, repeated again and again.
Princess Badsoulboudour meanwhile was staying in living room. She heard noise of a crowd outside but she could heard exactly what they were saying because it's to noisy. Therefore, she requested a maid to go out and take a look.
The maid turned back after few minutes, giggled. She couldn't stopped giggling that princess had to force her face not to smile.
"Hey! You get crazy. Why do you giggle so much?" said princess.
"I see a crazy man outside, my princess. He had new lamp but he don't sell them, only want to change them to get old lamps. That's why I laugh he's too stupid."
"Do y notice my princess." said another maid, "We have an old lamp which is placed on edge of wall. We will change it. My princess, if you want to know whether the man is crazy or not, we only need give him our old lamp and if he give us a new without asking us for anything, he's exactly a madman.
The lamp they were talking about was magical lamp which had brought Aladdin the most precious things on the world but no one of them knew about it. Before Aladdin went hunting he left it in castle because he feared he would lose. He knew that no one of maids and slaves noticed to an old ugly lamp. Of course, his wife also didn't. However, it's his mistake he should have hid in a secret place and locked it. Princess Badsoulboudour didn't know about the magical lamp Aladdin had never told her about it, not talked to her that's very important thing that no one was allowed to touch in it. Therefore, to challenge the madman outside, she did order a slave brought the lamp out to change. The slave obeyed. He went out and immediately met the Africa witch.
"Give me a new." said the slave, handing him magical lamp.
Africa witch knew surely it was magical lamp. There had no other lamp in the castle because all things in it were made of gold or silver. He grabbed magical lamp, put in his clothes then gave the slave the basket of lamps for him to choose one. Children laughed loudly they said he's an idiot. He ignored them, left the place in silence. It meant he didn't advertised more he didn't want any other lamps but the lamp he had gotten. The children despersed let him alone. He left the square, found a wild street. He stopped at a corner, threw the basket of lamp then left. He left the city went to a wild field where very few people passed. That's a suitable place for him to do his plan. He waited for night when whole place was covered by darkness. He took out magical lamp out of his clothes, rubbed it. The jinnee appeared.
"What do you want master? I server you, the owner of magical lamp. I and every slave of magical lamp will obey all your orders." said the jinnee.
"I order you and other slaves of magiacl lamp who have built Aladdin's castle bring it, me and all people living it to Africa."
The jinnee didn't say anything. The jinnee and others slave brought him and whole the castle to place he ordered.
The king woke up and as usual he went to the empty room where he stood admiring Aladdin's castle everyday but today, when he looked at Aladdin's castle he didn't see it. There only had an empty place as like Aladdin's castle had never existed. Thought that he's wrong, the king rubbed his eyes but he couldn't see anything more the castle had disappeared.
"I'm not wrong." thought the king, "if it's ruined, stuff has to there. If it's immerged in ground, it has to leave some traces."
Thought what he saw was real, his mind didn't accept. He looked the empty area for awhile then turned back his workroom. His mind turned confused. Immediately, the prime mandarin was summoned. He and his courtier hurried to the king's castle that they didn't mentioned Aladdin's castle had vanished. The guard opened the gate for them but he also didn't mention.
"My king," said the prime mandarin after kneed, "why you want to meet me so early? You know only few moments I will come here as usual because today is day we open to solve trials."
"It's not normal prime mandarin." said the king thoughtfully, "Where is Aladdin's castle?"
"It still where it has to, my king." said the prime madarin, "The gigantic architecture can't move anywhere."
"Go, and take a look prime mandarin." said the king.
The prime went to the empty room and as his king had he got deep surprise. When the prime mandarin's sure that Aladdin's castle had vanished, he went back to king's workroom.
"Do you see it?" asked the king.
"My king, Do you remmember? I did say you that whole the castle and property in it was only a performance of a witch."
The king hadn't trusted the prime mandarin but at the moment he believed. With all of his anger, he roared.
"Where is he, the swindler? I have to chop his head."
"He is going hunting." said the prime mandarin, "We need to send some peopple to and ask him where the castle is. He must know it."
"It's too generous for him." said the king, "Send thirty soldiers to and escort him to here."
King's order immediately was imparted. The prime mandarin carefully directed the leader of soldiers not to let the sinner escape. The soldiers left and met Aladdin 6 miles from the city. The leader told Aladdin that the king wanted to meet him and he had to go back with them. Aladdin had no sign to doubt. He followed them. However, when they was half mile from the city, soldiers suddenly rounded him.
"Prince consort Aladdin," said the leader, "I'm very sorry to inform you that we have to catch and escort you back city as a criminal. This is king's order and we are on duty. Hope you understand and forgive us."
Aladdin's surprised he asked the leader for some information but the leader and others didn't know much more him. Aladdin was apart from his servants. Besides, soldiers were more numerous than his sevants. Aladdin left horse, landed on ground. Soldiers wore a heavy chain on his neck, rounded it around his hands and then a soldier took the ends of the chain. The leader went ahead. Right after him rode the soldier who was pulling Aladdin, the poor man he had to walk. The others rode after them. People realized Aladdin when they went in city. They thought Aladdin would be killed. Therefore, they, people who loved and respected him, rushed into soldiers, rounded them and tried to free him. The soldiers were so great they didn't lose Aladdin in the people's hands. The people stopped at the square. Some of them who brought weapons stood in a row facing to king's castle. They looked Aladdin was brought and vanished after the closed gate.
Aladdin was led to king who was standing on balcony with the prime mandarin. Just saw Aladdin, the king immediately ordered excutioner to kill Aladdin. He didn't want to hear any explain. The excutioner took off the chain around Aladdin's neck and hands. He spread a piece of animal skin which was dyed in red by blood of other criminals. He forced Aladdin to knee on the blood skin then covered his eyes by a piece of cloth. The excutioner took his sword, raised up and waited for king's order.
Meanwhile, the crowd of people in square were rounded guads of king's castle, found the way to get pass the wall. The prime mandarin saw it and before the king ordered, he stopped it.
"My king, you should carefully think about what he is going to do." said the prime mandarin, "This caste can be broken in and you can be in danger."
"My castle can be broken? Who dare?" roared the king.
"My king, please look at the square and the wall surround castle, you we will see what I just said." said the prime mandarin.
It's too chaotic around the castle now. The reaction of people was too violent. The king hurriedly ordered the excutioner to stop, took of the piece of cloth on his eyes and then freed him. Besides, he ordered guards to inform that Aladdin had received favour. The crowd of people stopped. The people who were upon castle's wall leapt down. They happily informed the news to others. They all felt satisfied because they just saved the person they love. Later, the crowd of people dispersed they left.
Aladdin was untied, he looked up at the king and with a grateful voice, he said:
"My king, please do me another favour. Let me know what crime I did. Why do you treat me that?"
"What crime? Don't you know Aladdin?" grunted the king, "Follow me. I will let you see."
The king went ahead he didn't take a look to Aladdin who was after him. They went to the empty room.
"Come in. You must know where your castle is. Look then tell me where it is now."
Aladdin looked to the place where his castle have to be but he also didn't see anything. He looked whole the empty area carefully. He didn't imaged how the castle could vanish. Therefore, he couldn't give his king the answer he wanted. The king turned impatient he repeated.
"Where is you castle? Where is my daughter?"
"My dear king, I see. I admit the castle I built has vanished. I also don't know where it is. I swear that I don't relate to it's disappearance." said Aladdin.
"I don't care about your castle Aladdin. What I care is my daughter. I want you bring her back to me or I will chop your head." he grunted.
"My king, please, give me forty days. I will try effort to him her in the time. If I don't find her, I myself will bring my head to you."
"I will give you forty days but don't take advantage the favour I give you. Don't hope you will escape from my anger. I will find you though you go to anywhere."
Aladdin left in shame. His head downed as he crossed castle's yard, didn't dare to look at castle's guards he walked in silence. The guards also didn't see him they stood with backs turned to Aladdin. Though they wanted to comfort him, they would not realize him. He also didn't realize him now. He lost his mind. After leaving castle, Aladdin behaved as a madman. He knocked on every door he met on his way, asked people whether they saw his castle. The words gave others an idea that Aladdin lost mind. Some of them only smiled they didn't know anything than him. Others who had close relations to him pitied him. Aladdin wandered in city three days, ate things others gave him.
At last, he moved out it. He couldn't live in that expensive city. He headed to fields, crossed them with miserable mood. His mood turned worse as sundown. He thought about death. Aladdin went to river bank.
"Where can I find my castle and the wife I love? Which province? Which coutry? Or which part of this world. No, I can't. I have yo free myself from this suffering."
Aladdin planned to end his life by jumping into water but rules of his religion stopped him. He had to wash his hand before to die. He managed to washed his face and hands. However, the place he stood was wet and sloping. He would have been slipped down if he couldn't grabbed a on a rock jutting out from the bank. The accident made him remembered the magical ring which was on his finger now. Aladdin didn't want to drop in water so he rubbed the ring on the rock. The jinnee of ring immediately.
"What do you want master. I sever you the owner of magical ring. I and every slave of magical ring obey all your orders." said jinnee of ring.
Aladdin's happy because the appearance of the jinnee brought hope to him.
"You will save me one more time." said Aladdin, "Let me know where my castle is and somehow bring it back."
"What you want is over my power." said the jinnee, "You have to order jinnee of magical lamp."
"Behalf on power of ring, I ordered you bring me to the castle wherever on this world. Put me under Badsoulboudour's room's window.
When he had finished the words, the jinnee brought him to Africe, put him on grass where was not far big city. He stood under Badsoulboudour's room's window. All thing only happened in few seconds. Though it's night, Aladdin could realized his castle and Badsoulboudour's room. He left finding a place to rest. He sat under a ancient tree thinking about what he had passed for days. He felt lucky as he was saved right the time before he was executed. He spent time thinking then, fell in sleep. He hadn't slept for five days.
Birds woke him up the next moring. Aladdin saw himself under trees surround castle. He looked at the magnificient castle and felt happy because only few minutes later, he would get owned and was stayed besides his wife again. While he was waiting the castle open, he thought, thought about all things had happened in days recent. He remebered that he had left his magical in his castle but he couldn't image who had performed that magic bringing his castle to there. Firstly, he mentioned his castle was in Africa and Africa was hometown of the witch, his enemy.
Princess Badsoulboudour woke up early than usual from the time she was brought to Africa. She had to meet Africa witch one time a day. However, she was so stern that Africa witch didn't dare to bother her. While she was wearing, a maid looked through window and saw Aladdin. She hurriedly let her mastress know. Badsoulboudour walked to window at one and realized her husband. She tugged the window it made a loud bang. The noise made Aladdin start, he looked up and saw his wife. They both brusted into happiness. A maid left she went to opened door. The secret door under princess' room was opened. Aladdin followed the maid, went in. He and his wife met again. Happily,they hugged and gave the other love kisses. It happened in long time. Later, they sat down. Aladdin said first.
"Princess," said Aladdin, "before I explain all things, because of benifits of you, me and our king, I request you to know about the old lamp on edge of wall. Does it still at there?"
"Oh my dear husband," said princess, "I have ever thought that the disaster come from that old lamp and I feel very sad because I am the person who was reason of that disaster."
"My love, my princess," said Aladdin, "Don't blame yourself. It's my fault. I should have kept it carefully. Now we should find the way to repair my fault and you have to tell me what happened to the lamp and who is the person owning it now."
Princess Badsoulboudour told Aladdin that she had changed magical lamp to have a new. Then, things happened after that. The castle trembled in night of thr day the lamp was changed. The next morning, she woke up and felt she was in strange country and she only knew there was Africa after the witch told her.
"Princess," Aladdin interupted her, "You just let me know the name of my enemy. He's the most artfulest person on the world but it's not time to tell you more about him. What you need to tell me now was. What did he do to the lamp? And where is it now?"
"He wraps it carefully and always bring it in his clothes. I saw it one time when he showed up it as like a feat."
"My princess," said Aladdin, "don't turn angry because things I'm going to ask you may make you feel tired. It's important to me and also you. I want to know how he treat you."
"Husband," said princess, "he come here one time a day and maybe because he don't feel satisfied from visits, he bothered me less. All he told me on purpose to destroy my belief in you, to make me believe that we will never meet again because you have been executed at somewhere by my father. He didn't stop at that, husband. He also told me that you are ungrateful person. He said that all things you had came from to him. Course, he still told thousand things about you but to reply him, I only cried and lamented. I think he will wait for my love changing but he also can use force if he isn't patient enough. However, now you are here and I don't need to worry more."
"My wife," said Aladdin, "I have reason to believe in your worry. I have a plan and it will help you escape from our enemy."
"I have to go to city first and will come back before lunch, then I will tell you my plan. Don't surprise as I appear in different clothes. You have to ask your maid to open the door for me right the first time I knock on the secret door." added Aladdin.
His wife promised that a person would wait at the door and opened it right time he knocked.
Aladdin followed secret tunnel to leave the castle. He looked around and saw a farmer in the distance. Aladdin chased after the farmer and asked him to changed clothes. The farmer agreed and the changed was progressed in bushes. After that, they're apart. Aladdin found the way to city. He crossed city's gate, went in crowded streets. Aladdin went in a store and asked the seller about a kind of narcotic powder. The seller said he had the powder but it's expensive. Aladdin understood what the seller meant. He opened his pocket, showed the seller golden coins. The seller gave Alladdin a wrap of the powder Aladdin wanted and asked for one golden coin. Aladdin took the wrap, gave the seller one coin then left. He stopped at a restaurant, got a fast lunch before went back castle. The secret door opened right at one when he knocked. He went straight to Badsoulboudour's room.
"My wife," said Aladdin, "you showed me that you hated the witch but now you have to hide your thinking. You maybe have to use force to escape from the suffering of our enemy. Your father will be happy if he's met you again soon. If you belive me wife, right now you have to change in beautiful clothes. And when he come, you have welcome him. Do it naturally because if you don't, he will realize. While you and he converse, he still attempt to make you forget me, tell him that you will try. Make sure that he believe you. After that, you have to invite him to have dinner with you, ask him for the best wine. He will go out to find it. While the time he's absent and the dinner is prepared, you put this powder in the goblet you used to use. Remember to tell your maid to know about it, request her not to forget your goblet. The witch will come back and sit on. You and he will eat a little first and when suitable time come, hint maid to bring your goblet come. You say that you want change your goblet with his. He will never refuse. It's a favour to him and he will drink whole wine in it. If you feel disgusting to use his goblet, pretend that you are drinking. The power of this powder is very strong. He will fall in sleep at one and don't know if you drink or not."
"I admit that it's not easy to do what you just said." said princes, "However, we have to because he's our enemy. I will follow you husband."
Aladdin directed his wife then left.
Princess Badsoulboudour's so sad she was apart from her husband and even her father who loved and pampered her most. She even forgot makeup which she always did everyday because of sadness. Then, when the first time Africa came to her room, her maid let her know that he was the person who changed their old lamp, she could image a little. Therefore, she felt disgusted the person, Africa witch. Luckily, her husband came and gave her chance to revenge, gave her hope escaping from there. Therefore, she decided to do what her husband said. After her husband left, she had bath, wore in her most beautiful and luxurios dress, the golden waistband and a thirty-pearl chain which had the biggest pearl at the middle, bracelets which attached gems, diamonds, ruby... beautiful and suitable with her dress. After that, she sat on front her mirror asked maids to make up her. When she had felt sastisfied, she found the way to sit on sofa waiting for Africa witch.
The Africa witch didn't forget to come to princess' room as usual. He crossed the living room where princess Badsoulboudour was waiting him. She stood up, raised her hand and hinted him to sit besides her and waited him to sit down. All her gestures were formal and charming. Africa witch had never been welcomed like that before. He was shocked one was admired her beauty that jewel she wore on turned commonplace front that beauty. Firstly, he wanted to sit on edge of the sofa but princess Badsoulboudour wouldn't sit if he didn't sit on the place she wanted. Therefore, he came and sat besides her. He felt confused as she looked at him there was no disgust on the way she looked him. It's too different with the times he came before.
"You must feel surprised. My behaviors are too different with things you saw in few days passing, cry, lament, sink in sadness. I did think about things which have happened to me and things you told me, what happened to Aladdin. I know my father's character and ensure that Aladdin could escape from his anger. I can't revive him though I cry more. Therefore, I have to continue living, get rid of the sadness and find other happiness. I think that is also what Aladdin, my husband want at me after he die. Think you want to become my friend. I will tell people to prepare the dinner. Stay here and drink with me."
"I only have chinese wine while we are staying Africa. I wanna taste wine here and I think you have. If you can, I want the best." added princess.
Didn't think that happiness came to him fastly and easily like that, Africa said that he couldn't use any word to explain his gratefulness getting favour having dinner with her. He introduced her kind of Africe wine and said poudly that producing wine was strength of Africa. He also let her know about a kind of wine which was kept in sevent years before to be used. He praised it was better than ever best wine in the world.
"If you allow, I will go and take two bottles." he said.
"I don't want to bother you. Had better we should have another to do it." said princess.
"I myself need to do it. No one but me know where the store is and only me know about that wine." he said.
"If it's the reason." she said, "Please hurry up. I'll be here waiting for your return."
Africa witch bursted into happiness what he did was not running he flew, hurriedly brought the sevent-year wine back. Princess Badsoulboudour herself had put nacortic in a goblet then gave it to a maid before Africa witch returned. They went in dinner table, sat opposite and ate for few munites before she asked for drink. The maid who brought the nacortic-powder goblet was their wine servant. She stood behind Africa witch. The maid gave her mastress a full wine goblet.
"Cheers!" she said, looking at him.
She drank a gulp of wine.
"You're right about this wine." she said, "I have never drunk any better."
"My princess," he said, raising the goblet princess' maid gave him, "our wine get more value because of your praise."
"Drink for your health", he added then took a gulp.
"My princess, I haven't felt much happy in my life. I admit I've not drunk this delicious wine in such happiness before."
They continued eating and drank three times. Africa witch was charmed by gentle gestures of princess. He fell in love with her and didn't doubt anything. Princess Badsoulboudour hinted the his maid and that maid understood her pouring wine in the nacortic-powder goblet. She gave her mastress the full wine goblet. The witch's goblet was also filled full. They both took their goblets.
"I don't know how people living in here behave but in Chine where I live, people always give their lovers their goblets and recieve the others'. They drink for love, for health of the others." she said, heading her goblet to him and also raised the other hand to receive his goblet.
Africa witch hurriedly received princess' goblet and considered that he had gotten princess' love.
"We are also subtle in love. Of course we don't behave like you but I will please to study it from you." he said, "My dear princess, I will never forget this moment as I receive your goblet, I seem to get again my happiness which is nearly destroyed by your cold."
Princess Badsoulboudour who had been disgusted with his endless words interrupted.
"Drink then we will talk more."
Pricess Badsoulboudour raised the goblet up on her mouth but she only pretend that she was drinking while Africa witch happily drank whole of the wine. He turned face upward to finished his wine. Later, he stood up then his eyes rolled up. He fell down he's unconscious.
The secret door was opened. Aladdin appeared. He went to living room where Africa witch and princess were. Africa witch was lying on sofa. Pricess Badsoulboudour was standing near that. She nearly rushed into Aladdin to hug and kiss him if he didn't prevent.
"Princess," he said, "It's not time to do it. I need you to come back your room and order all people to leave me alone. I have to manage to bring this castle back China."
Princess Badsoulboudour, maids and slaves moved. They left Aladdin alone in living room. Aladdin closed the door as they left. He approached Africa which and found magical lamp in his clothes. He got it. Then, he rubbed on it as usual. Jinnee of magical lamp appeared.
"Behalf on magical lamp, I order you to bring this castle to China, put it in the place it have to."
The jinnee nodded then disappeared. The castle was moved in very short time. People only felt it trembled two times then it had been put on China, front of Aladdin's king's castle.
Aladdin found the way to princess' room. He hugged and kissed her.
"My princess, my wife," said Aladdin, "I'm sure that you will get more happiness if you wake up in next morning."
Badsoulboudour's father, the king had sunk into great misery since his daughter disappeared. He didn't sleep days. Before that, he only went to the empty room one time a day at morning admiring Aladdin's castle, now he went to it many times. He cried, sank deeply in his misery because, he would never see what he like more and especially, he maybe hadn't met his daughter who he loved very much again. Early morning, he went to the empty room, sadly looked at the empty place where Aladdin's castle had been but that time it's not empty. Thought that he's wrong because of fog, he rubbed his eyes and looked again. Course, he's not wrong Aladdin's castle was brought back the last night. The king turned happy. He immediately went back his room, ordered a horse. He wanted to come Aladdin's castle at one.
Aladdin guessed what would happen. He woke up early, wore in nice clothes. He found the way to living and waited for king's appearance. He saw the king as he looked through window. Aladdin hurriedly went to the gate and helped the king down his horse.
"Aladdin, I only talk to you after I meet my daughter." said the king.
Aladdin led the king to room of Badsoulboudour who had woken up and was dressing. The king appeared as she had dressed. Princess Badsoulboudour rushed into her father, hugged and kissed him many times. They both cried, because of happiness. It happened for minutes they didn't speak a word. At last, the king started.
"Daughter, I feel happy because you don't change much. If mean you don't get any danger. Course, I can image that you was nervous as you was brought to a strange place with whole of this castle. I want you to tell me every detals, don't scare." said the king.
"My father," said princess, "You must see me few days ago father. If my husband didn't appeare, I don't know I would've been now. Luckily, Aladdin, my dear husband who I thought I had lost him forever came and freed me. The happiness I was met my husband, hugged and kissed him help me get again my beaty as you see now. Honestly, my miseries were not only being apart from you, my father and Aladdin, my husband. It's also I feared that you would do things not wise to my husband, Aladdin because of your anger. Then, he, the swindler tried to filled my mind bad words about my husband, Aladdin. Father, I daresay that Aladdin didn't relate to the disappearance of his castle. That's because of me."
Then, princess told her father details. She told him about Africa witch who had pretended as a lamp trader and behaved as an idiot, cheated her to have Aladdin's lamp because she didn't know it's magical lamp which related to castle's move. And, she only realized it as the Africa appeared and started flirting her. She explained that she felt very unhappy before she met his husband, Aladdin. She told her mother about their plan inviting Africa witch to have a dinner and poisoned him.
"My king," said Aladdin, "as the secret door was opened, I hurried to living where the witch was lying. I found my lamp and ordered it to bring castle back China where it should be. I brought princess back as you ordered. If you don't believe me my king, you can went to living room, the witch's still there."
The king stood up, went to living room he want to have a reason to believe. Africe died lying there with a white face.
"Aladdin," said the king hugging Aladdin, "don't hate me because of my behaviors before. You must know why I did that and I think I should be forgiven, because of my daughter."
"My king," Aladdin said, "I don't complain about your behavior you have to do that. The fiendish witch, the worst person on the world himself is cause of all things. If you have time, I will tell you more about him and things he have done to me which was not better than things you've heard."
"We will talk about it on other day. I need to spend a little time with my daughter. Before that, I think yoy should bring this dirty thing out of my sight." said the king pointing at the dead.
Aladdin ordered people to bring the dead away. A ten-day party was held the king wanted to congratulate Aladdin and Badsoulboudour's return. Music resounded. People danced, drank and enjoyed meals happily for whole ten days.
Aladdin one more time escaped from danger that no one though he could. However, it's not end.
Africa with had a twin brother who was even more fiendish than him. The tiwns didn't stay in a same city. It's daytime at place one live while it's nighttime at the other's place. It meant they stayed far away the other but because of future-telling, they knew about the other.
Short time after Africa witch died, his twin did a future-telling about him. He wanted to know where his brother was and how his life was after one year he didn't have a news from him. He took his sandy box out, drew and counted. He didn't any difficult to find out that his brother had poisoned at a palace in China by a person who had humble origin but got married with princess. The twin didn't wasted yime to pity his brother it didn't revive him. He decided revenge. He mounted on horse then rode straight China's capital. He crossed many fields, rivers, mountains and including desert. It's a long and hard journey. At last, he arrived to China then its capital. He foud an inn and rested in in.
He went out the next morning. Instead of admiring the beaty of city, he watched and heard people people talking he was seeking some ideas for his plan. Almost things he heard people say related to morals, kindness and special abilities of a woman who secluded herself from others. The woman's name was Fatime.
He approached one person and asked him about Fatime.
"What?" said the person, "Have you never seen or heard about her? She was the kindest and respected most here, a long-term vegetarian person. She lived apart from others at her place and only left on Monday and Friday going in city, helping others. She cure others by touching on their heads."
He requested to know Fatime's place and the person directed. He followed and observed Fatime on the day she went to city. Afternoon, Fatime turned back her place, he followed her till there before got back to city, paid a little money to have a place in tea shop where people could stay instead of their homes in hot days of summer. He waited till midnight, left the tea shop and went straight to Fatime's place. It's not difficult for him to open the door. He opened it and then closed. Fatime, now, was sleeping on a sofa which stood again wall. Grabed a knife, he approached and woke Fatime up.
Fatime opened her eyes. She's both surprised and scared as a man was going to stab her. Poor Fatime.
"If you scream or make a noise, I will kill you at one." he frightened, "Wake up and do what I say."
Fatime stood up. Her body still trembled because of scare.
"Don't scare." he said, "I only want you clothes. Take off it and put on mine."
They changed and when he had put on Fatime's clothes, he said:
"I want you to make up me like you."
Fatime still trembled and to calmed her, he said:
"Don't scare. I swear I will not kill you."
Fatime led him to other room, powdered and drew on his face. She wore her hat on his head, covered his face by her veil and directed him how to hide his face as he went out city. At last, she wore long glittering chains on her neck, gave him the stick she used to use then brought a mirror to him.
"Look! You will not find out the difference between us." said Fatime.
The twin got satisfied but he didn't keep his promise. He didn't like blood so he strangled her then hid her in a corner of that house. He stayed in that house whole the night though he just did a disgusting thing at there. Next morning, though it's not the day Fatime left her house to go in city, he went out he believed that people would not notice. Of course, if they noticed and asked him about it, he could satisfied them by his answers. He had known where Aladdin's castle was because it's the first thing he had to do one he went there. He went straight Aladdin's castle.
When others saw him, they rounded him because they thought he was Fatime. Some of them begged, some kissed his hand, others kissed her shirt while the others kneed front of him, begged him to cure them. The twin behaved as like Fatime's behaviors that no one doubted he was not Fatime. After few time stopping to satisfy the crowd of people, he had been front of Aladdin's castle. The crowd of people jostled, argued to approaced and got favour from him. That created loud noisy. The noise came to the living room of Aladdin's castle where princess Badsoulboudour was. Badsoulboudour asked a maid to go and find out what was going on while other maids looked through windows and saw a crowd of people who were rounded Fatime.
Princess had heard about Fatime but she hadn't met her. She's curious. She wanted to meet and talk to her. Therefore, he ordered four slaves to go and invite Fatime. Four slaves went out and approached the twin, the fake Fatime. The crowd of people broke up as they saw people from Aladdin's castle come. The twin was freed from the crowd. He felt happy because his plan acted.
"Princess Badsoulboudour want to meet you Fatime." said one of slaves, "Follow us."
"It's my honour. I'm willing." he said.
He followed slaves to castle, hid his black heart under shape of Fatime. He was led to the twenty-four-bamboo screen room.
He started a lot of words which begged for princess's health, wealth and wishes, prayed all princess' wishes were meet as he just saw her. He charmed her by sweet saying and fake behaviors. Of course, he got what he wanted. Princess Badsoulboudour's too kind and thought innocently that all people on world were kind like her, especially people like Fatime who severed the God.
"My kind-hearted mother," said princess, "Thank you because of the prayers. I belive God will meet them. Mother come here and stay besides me."
Fake Fatime came and sat besides princess.
"I have a request and hope you don't refuse it." said princess, "I want you to stay here in this castle with me. I want to take care of you and study things from you."
"Princess, I pray you not to force me. I can't ignore my god and prayers." said fake Fatime.
"It's not difficult Fatime. Here has many empty rooms for you to choose. You can stay in any room you want and also whatever you want in it." said princess.
The twin had no purpose more. He was protected by princess Badsoulboudour in Aladdin's castle. Of course, it's better than he left and returned may times to do his plan. Therefore, Badsoulboudour didn't need to insist him much.
"Princess," he said, "though I've been apart from secular activities, I don't dare to refuse you, a kind-hearted princess who trust and give me much love."
"Mother," said princess stading up, "go with me and look the rooms."
He followed princess Badsoulboudour, watched all the rooms she led him to. All of them were clean and luxurious and enough furniture. On purpose satisfied princess, he chose the wrost room and said that it's the best for him. After that, they went to twenty-four-bamboo-screen room and had lunch there. Of course, they had to take off veils in lunch. He didn't let it happened praying princess to give him some bread and fruits he wanted to eat in his room. Princess Badsoulboudour agreed.
"Mother," said princess, "You can behave as like you are in your place. I will order people to bring you your lunch and I wait you here after lunch."
He turned back to princess Badsoulboudour after being informed that her lunch had finished.
"Mother," said princess, "I'm very happy as you live here this castle. What do you think about this castle mother. Before you consider other rooms, I want to know your thinking about this room."
Fake Fatime lowed his head from the time he returned he acted well and he only turned his face up when he was asked. He looked around then said:
"Princess," he said, "This room's very beautiful. I've never seen any place more beautiful. However, I feel this room still lack of something. It's not perfect."
"What's that mother? Let me know." said princess, "I've thought and also heard that this room lack of nothing but now you have different thought with me. I want to hear it."
"Princess, forgive me." he said cautiously, "This's only my thought. I think in midar, at middle of the dome, hanging an Eagle's egg. Yes, I will make this castle more beautiful than all castles on the world. Your castle will become a wonder of universe."
"What's Eagle mother?" said princess, "And where do I find its egg?"
"My princess, it's a huge and marvellous bird living in the highest mountain in Caucase. The architect of this castle can find an egg for you."
Princess Badsoulboudour thanked him about the suggestion. They talked about other things but princess didn't forget about the egg. She intended to tell her husband after he came back from his huntting. The huntting lasted in six days. Fake Fatime took most advantage in the time. The night Aladdin returned, fake Fatime had asked princess to go back his room dodging Aladdin. Aladdin's went to princess' room fist, hugged and kissed her but she seemed not happy.
"My princess, my wife," he said, "You are not happy. What make you unhappy while I'm absent? Tell me. I will try all my effort to make you happy again."
"It's only a small matter husband." said princess, "I planed not to tell you but you realize it, on my face. Then, I won't hide you though it's not matter to talk. I've thought that our castle's the most beautiful and it's perfect. However, it just came to me when I observe our living room, the twenty-four-bamboo-screen room. It will get more wonderful my husband if we hang an Eagle's egg at middle of dome."
"My priness," said Aladdin, "if it's thing you want, I will manage to do it. I will do everything you want because of my love for you princess."
Aladdin left. He went toward the living room, took out magical lamp. He rubbed it. The jinnee of magical lamp appeared.
"Jinnee," he said, "this place lack an Eagle's egg hanging at middle. I want you to find it behalf on magical lamp your..."
Aladdin still didn't finish his words.
"What? YOU UGRATEFUL!!!" roared the jinne, his voice made whole the room tremble and frightened even the bravest people, "I and my fellows have done all things orders but it's still not enough for you. How do you dare to order I bring my master to here and hang under this dome. Only it, because of it, I can burn whole the castle, you and also your wife into ashes. Luckily, it's not your idea. It's the idea of brother of Africa witch, your enemy. He is in you castle under shape of Fatime. He want I myself kill you because you don't know what you just said is a insolent request. Be careful." The jinnee disappeared.
Aladdin had heard about Fatime and the way she cured people. He didn't waste any time, went toward princess' room. He complained that he felt headache, raised hands up he massaged his head. Immediately, princess ordered people to invited Fatime came. While the time they waited, princess told her husband that she had invited Fatime came and lived with them in their castle.
Fake Fatime went in.
"Mother," said Aladdin, "come here. I'm happy to meet you here and feel more happy as I'm informed you will live here with us. However, I just had headache that prevent me to hug and kiss you in happiness. Mother, I beg you to pray for me and help me get rid of my headache."
Aladdin bowed he grimaced as though pain was bothering him. Fake Fatime approached Aladdin with on hand touching on a knife he put on his waist. Aladdin realized it and before the twin could took out his knife, he grabbed the twin's hand and used his knife, stabbed to his heart. The twin died, Aladdin pushed him down on ground.
"What are you doing?" screamed princess in scare, "You did kill Fatime, the kind-hearted woman."
"No, my princess," said Aladdin, "I don't kill Fatime. I only killed a unfeeling person who could have killed me if I was not cautioned." Aladdin took of the veil on the twin's face. "He himself killed Fatime with no feeling and behaved as her to come here. You will surprised if you know he's Africa witch's twin."
Aladdin ordered people to throw the corpse the told his wife details. Therefore, Aladdin had escaped fromthe twin witches that meant his life wouldn't be bothered by them more.
Few years later, the king, father of princess Badsoulboudour turned old and died. Princess Badsoulboudour became the heir of the throne. She and her husband, Aladdin shared the power ruling the country for many years.
☘☘☘The end.☘☘☘
"I will be the poorest person my princess," said Aladdin, raised her hand and gave it a kiss, "if my wish getting married with you make you unhappy. However, it's not only my fault. Your beauty itself charmed me."
"My groom," said the princess, "Now I'll say what I think. I come here following my father words and while I'm here, I want to say that I don't repent."
Her answered satisfied Aladdin. He happily grabbed her hand, led to living room where his jinnee had prepared a meal. The room was decorated by lamps, candles and roses, beautiful and romantic. There were delicious-looking food on golden dishes setting on the table. The knives and forks were made of silve. All of them, things on the table, were precies and glittering. Princess Badsoulboudour had never seen much riches focusing at a place like that, although, she was daughter of a powerful king.
"I have never thought will find out somewhere which's more beautiful than my father's castle but I'm wrong. This room is more beautiful than things I can image." said princess.
"Princess," said Aladdin, leading her to her seat, "honestly, I know I should believe in which."
Music resounded up as Aladdin, his mother and princess Bodsoulboudour had been on their seats. Musicans played and singers sang till their dinner finished. Badsoulboudour had never heard the great voices before she didn't know that the singers were nymphs chosen by the jinnee. Things were brought after that, dancers appeared and started dancing. They danced many different dances and it's ended by a couple dancing in gentle music. Midnight was coming, following their culture, the groom and his bride were the last people dancing and finishing the wedding. Aladdin grabbed his bride, led her went to middle of the room while dancers stood aside. Aladdin and princess danced so well, they got praises from others. At last, the wedding finished, Aladdin still held his wife's hand, directed her pass other rooms to come their wedding room. Maids help the bride take off coat while the slaves also did that with Aladdin. They followed their master and mastress to the wedding bed then left. The party completely finished.
The next morning, slaves had stood besides his bed as he woke up. They wore on him another clothes which was beautiful as like the clothes he put on the last day. A horse was brought to. Aladdin mounted on the horse rode straight toward king's castle with escorts. The king welcomed and treated him as good as he had at the first time. He hugged and kissed then let Aladdin sit besides. After that, he ordered servants to prepare a meal but Aladdin stopped him.
"My king, my dear father," he said, "allow me not to receive your favour. Today, I come here with a purpose inviting you, prime mandarin and others to come and have lunch with me."
The king happily agreed. He stood up and because the distance from his castle to Aladdin's castle was short so he wanted to walked. The escorts were the prime mandarin and Aladdin in the left and right of the king, courtiers after them and alsmost soldiers going ahead. The more close the more beautiful the king felt about Aladdin's castle. It got much difference that the king only could admired each of rooms he got pass. At last, Aladdin led him to the living room where had twenty windows with bamboo screens decorated by gems, diamonds, ruby,... in big size and large number. The king couldn't speak for awhile he's too surprised. After that, he turned to prime mandarin who was besides him now.
"I can't be." said the king, his mind still be shocked, "Why I don't know about it, a great beautiful and magnificent castle in my country and besides, very close my place?"
"My king," said the prime mandarin, "Don't you remember? Just two days before, Aladdin, your son-in-law begged you to build a castle opposite your castle and you allowed. You remember? Before sundown, front of your castle was empty but the next moring a new castle was built at there. And, I was the person who had informed you."
"I remember but," said the king, "this castle's a wonder. How you can find any castle on this world which is paved by gold and silver blocks instead of bricks as normal? Where you can find bamboo screens which are decorated by perfect big size gems, diamonds, ruby... like them? No way!"
The king spent time admiring each bamboo screen. Twenty three bamboo screens were perfect same while the twenty fourth was not complete.
"Too strange, prime mandarin," said the king, turning to his closest courtier, "Why is the screen not complete?"
"My king," answered the king, "I think Aladdin didn't have enough time to decorate it, not because he didn't have enough gems, diamonds, ruby or things like those. I believe he don't lack those things."
Aladdin went back he had left to directed his slaves for awhile.
"Son," said the king, "This place is amazing and things I admired most are screens. However, I mention that one of the screen isn't complete. Can you tell me why? You didn't have enough time, materials or because of other reasons."
"My king, my dear father, I told craftsmen to do that on purpose." said Aladdin, "I want you, my king will complete this room and I, the owner will never forget your favour."
"If it's your intention son, I'll be pleased to help you completing it." said the king satisfiedly.
The king ordered servants to bring the wealthies jewelery traders and the greatest craftsmen in capital to there. After that, Aladdin led him to a room where a meal had been prepared. Munites later, princess Badsoulboudour appeared. She happily hugged and kissed her father. She showed him that she was satisfied about that wedding. Two table had filled full of food. The king, princess, Aladdin and prime mandarin sat on a table while others joined in the other. Food's so good the king admitted that he had never enjoyed any meal more delicious. Wine was the best, what he talked about it. He praised all appliance using in their meal. He like the music which was played in whole the meal. All things made it become a wonderful lunch.
A servant came and informed the king that jewelery traders and craftsmen had come. The king went back the room and let the people see the screen not complete.
"I summon you all here to complete this screen. I want it to resemble the others. Watch them carefully." said the king.
Jewelery trader and craftsmen watched carefully the screens then had a fast discussion. Later, the went to their king.
"My king, my wise and powerful king, we are willing to use our skill and complete that screen but it's a great work that we need lot of material. We have never seen a large number of jewel like that." they said.
"I have," said the king, "and I think what I have enough for you finish it. Go to my castle and take what you need."
The king gave them a large number of jewel which he received from Aladdin but it's not enough. All of the jewel and besides jewel the prime mandarin lent was only enough for them to complete half of the screen.
Aladdin knew that the king would never complete the screen though he tried. Therefore, he told craftsmen to stopped, removed jewel on the screen then asked them to return. The effort of craftsmen in six weeks was distroyed in few hours. They left Aladdin alone in the room going to king's castle. Aladdin rubbed on his magical lamp. The jinnee appeared at one.
"I ordered you not to complete a bamboo screen and you did." said Aladdin, "Now I want you to complete it."
The jinnee disappeared with a pop. Aladdin left for awhile. Later, he came back and the bamboo screen had completed, indentical to all others.
Craftsmen had arrived to king's castle. They were met the king. The leader of them brought the jewel, returned their king.
"My king," said the leader, "we've spent much time used all our skills to decorate the not-completed screen. However, Aladdin, your son-in-law not only stopped us, he also destroyed whole of our effort."
The king asked them for reason but they replied him that Aladdin didn't talk them. He let craftsmen leave then ordered people to prepare a horse. He rode straight to Aladdin's castle, only brought some courtiers with him. He got down and immediately went in the room where twenty four bamboo screens were, not informed to his law-in-law, Aladdin. However, Aladdin knew he was there in time to welcome him. The king didn't give Aladdin's time to explain, he said immediately.
"Son," he said, "Why don't you let craftsmen complete your living room?" "It's amazing for me and everyone in this world but it's not completed son." the king stressed.
Aladdin didn't wanted the king to know that he didn't have enough jewel to waste in that screen. He knew that not only his king's castle but all castles on the world also were normal if they were placed besides it.
"My king, my father," said Aladdin, "as you knew this room wasn't completed but you see it has been finished."
The king went straight to the twenty fourth screen and watched. The king didn't believe in his eyes thought he's wrong he looked at screens besides. Of course, all of them were perfect compeleted. Nothing could expressed king's surprise, he hugged and kissed on Aladdin's forehead.
"Son, who are you?" said the king, "Why can you do the magics? The more I know about you, the more I admire you."
"My king, it's my honor receiving praise from you. I will not forget your praises and always make myself better to be worthy with favours you give me."
The king turned back his castle by the way he came, didn't need Aladdin to escort him. The prime mandarin was waiting the king at the gate of castle. The king happily told him what he just saw. After hearing words, the prime mandarin affirmed surely that Aladdin's castle was a bewitched castle. He told the king his thinking but the king interupted.
"You've told me that, prime mandarin. I think you have never forgetten the wedding of your son with my daughter."
The prime mandarin didn't want to ruin his king's happiness so he didn't talk more. He left. From the time Aladdin's castle appeared, the king had a habit. Every morning, as he woke up, he went to an empty room which had windows heading to Aladdin's castle. He would stay here and admired Aladdin's castle for munites.
Aladdin didn't spend much time in castle, he used to go out, coming to church, prime mandarin's house or king's courtiers' houses who he used to invited to come his castle. Every time he went out, some slaves would go with him, toss coins on streets or crowded square. No beggar felt not satisfied as they came to his gate. Aladdin went hunting at least one time a week. Some times, he only went hunting around the city but some times, he went farer. However, he's always generous with people he met. Many people got favour from him. They praised and loved him even more than their king. Honestly, Aladdin treated people very kind. However, Aladdin didn't want his reputation to cover over king's name he used to come castle and participate in conferences there. He always heightened national benefits and ardently solved national problems in his ability. Then, rebels appeared in the country. Immediately, an army was set up and Aladdin was the person who requested to direct the army. The king allowed and they left. By talent, intelligence and courage, Aladdin easily destroyed the rebels. His name one more time spead out in the country but Aladdin wasn't proud. He still lived the way he had, be kind and generous with everyone.
Years got pass, Aladdin still lived his life till the Africa witch who had given Aladdin the chance to have his most wealth now had come back Africa and suddenly remembered to him. Of course, he believed Aladdin had died in the tunnel he had buried in. However, he wanted to confirm that Aladdin had died. He took out a box, put it on table. Then, leveled sands in it then drawed in sand surface some things, watched and counted. Course, he was good in future-telling. Instead of seeing Aladdin died in tunnel, he found out Aladdin had escaped from that time and had a very good life, husband of princess, be respected. His body trembled because of anger.
"He did find out the power of the lamp." he grunted, "He is coming in fortune which should have belonged to me. I swear to regain things belonging to me though I have to die."
Africa witch didn't wasted time, he set off the next morning. He didn't stopped if it's not necessary. He went cross many cities, countries and only stopped for his horse to rest. He rode straight to capital where Aladdin and his wife lived as he arrived to China. He stopped at an inn, rent a room and had a night at there.
Next morning, he left wandering around city to hear about Aladdin. He went to places where wealthy and high-status people used to come. He went to the tea shop he had ever come before. Waiter brought him a glass of tea immediately as he sat down. Surround him, now, was crowds of people who were excitingly talking about Aladdin's castle. He approached some of them.
"What castle are you talking about?" asked Africa witch, pretending he didn't know little about thing they were talking about.
"Where are you from man?" said one of the people surprisingly, "You must come from a distant place. Only it, you don't see or hear about prince consort Aladdin's castle. I must say you it's a wonder but no wonder on this world can be bigger, more luxurious and magnificent than it. I wonder where you are from man. People only talked about it from the time the castle was built. Come and take a look, you will find out what I did say is true."
"Forgive me," said Africe witch, "I come from the place which is the end of Africa and just came here last night. When I left my hometown, the name of Aladdin's castle still didn't spread to there and besides of my business, I have to hurry to here, not to stop anywhere on my way to hear or talk about it. So I don't know little about things you just did say. I feel so impatient that I will find the way to that castle and admire it. Could you lead me to there?"
The person directed so Africa witch could easily find Aladdin's castle. He stayed there watched that castle carefully. He's sure that Aladdin had used slave of magical lamp to build his castle. Too angry because of what Aladdin had, happiness, wealth and respect, he went back the inn and planned. To perform his plan, he had to know where Aladdin placed magical lamp. Of course, he could discover it by future-telling. He took out his sand box and did what he had done many times.
"I will push him down abyss of hopeless and no one can prevent me." he grunted.
"It's unlucky to Aladdin as he had left three days before for eight-day hunting and didn't bring magical lamp with him. Africa witch came back Aladdin's castle, got the chance talking with the guard of castle.
"Because of the curious, I come here and admire this wonderful castle." said Africa witch, "But I still don't feel satisfied before I meet the owner. Thought he's a great man."
"It's not difficult to meet him." said the guard, "He usually go out. However, now he is not in castle he left to participate in eight-day hunting."
Africa witch didn't want to know more. He said goodbye the guard then left.
"It's the time to act." he thought. He found the way to a lamp store and asked the owner.
"I need a dozen of lamps. Do you have?" he said.
The owner said that he didn't have enough and told him to wait till next morning. He agreed directed the owner to make lamps carefully he want they all were beautiful. After that, he left coming back his inn.
The next morning, he came back to lamp store, received twelve lamps then gave the owner the money he wanted. He brought the basket of twelve lamps went straight to Aladdin's castle. When he approached it,
"Change an old lamp into a new. Does anyone want a new lamp?" he said loudly and repeated the words again.
Children curiously followed him. They whispered then giggled. Passengers laughed at him as they heard he advertised. They thought he was a madman. Course, Africa witch didn't surprise about children's and passengers' behaviors. He continued advertising.
"Change an old lamp into a new. Does anyone want a new lamp."
He wandered in square between king's castle and Aladdin's, repeated again and again.
Princess Badsoulboudour meanwhile was staying in living room. She heard noise of a crowd outside but she could heard exactly what they were saying because it's to noisy. Therefore, she requested a maid to go out and take a look.
The maid turned back after few minutes, giggled. She couldn't stopped giggling that princess had to force her face not to smile.
"Hey! You get crazy. Why do you giggle so much?" said princess.
"I see a crazy man outside, my princess. He had new lamp but he don't sell them, only want to change them to get old lamps. That's why I laugh he's too stupid."
"Do y notice my princess." said another maid, "We have an old lamp which is placed on edge of wall. We will change it. My princess, if you want to know whether the man is crazy or not, we only need give him our old lamp and if he give us a new without asking us for anything, he's exactly a madman.
The lamp they were talking about was magical lamp which had brought Aladdin the most precious things on the world but no one of them knew about it. Before Aladdin went hunting he left it in castle because he feared he would lose. He knew that no one of maids and slaves noticed to an old ugly lamp. Of course, his wife also didn't. However, it's his mistake he should have hid in a secret place and locked it. Princess Badsoulboudour didn't know about the magical lamp Aladdin had never told her about it, not talked to her that's very important thing that no one was allowed to touch in it. Therefore, to challenge the madman outside, she did order a slave brought the lamp out to change. The slave obeyed. He went out and immediately met the Africa witch.
"Give me a new." said the slave, handing him magical lamp.
Africa witch knew surely it was magical lamp. There had no other lamp in the castle because all things in it were made of gold or silver. He grabbed magical lamp, put in his clothes then gave the slave the basket of lamps for him to choose one. Children laughed loudly they said he's an idiot. He ignored them, left the place in silence. It meant he didn't advertised more he didn't want any other lamps but the lamp he had gotten. The children despersed let him alone. He left the square, found a wild street. He stopped at a corner, threw the basket of lamp then left. He left the city went to a wild field where very few people passed. That's a suitable place for him to do his plan. He waited for night when whole place was covered by darkness. He took out magical lamp out of his clothes, rubbed it. The jinnee appeared.
"What do you want master? I server you, the owner of magical lamp. I and every slave of magical lamp will obey all your orders." said the jinnee.
"I order you and other slaves of magiacl lamp who have built Aladdin's castle bring it, me and all people living it to Africa."
The jinnee didn't say anything. The jinnee and others slave brought him and whole the castle to place he ordered.
The king woke up and as usual he went to the empty room where he stood admiring Aladdin's castle everyday but today, when he looked at Aladdin's castle he didn't see it. There only had an empty place as like Aladdin's castle had never existed. Thought that he's wrong, the king rubbed his eyes but he couldn't see anything more the castle had disappeared.
"I'm not wrong." thought the king, "if it's ruined, stuff has to there. If it's immerged in ground, it has to leave some traces."
Thought what he saw was real, his mind didn't accept. He looked the empty area for awhile then turned back his workroom. His mind turned confused. Immediately, the prime mandarin was summoned. He and his courtier hurried to the king's castle that they didn't mentioned Aladdin's castle had vanished. The guard opened the gate for them but he also didn't mention.
"My king," said the prime mandarin after kneed, "why you want to meet me so early? You know only few moments I will come here as usual because today is day we open to solve trials."
"It's not normal prime mandarin." said the king thoughtfully, "Where is Aladdin's castle?"
"It still where it has to, my king." said the prime madarin, "The gigantic architecture can't move anywhere."
"Go, and take a look prime mandarin." said the king.
The prime went to the empty room and as his king had he got deep surprise. When the prime mandarin's sure that Aladdin's castle had vanished, he went back to king's workroom.
"Do you see it?" asked the king.
"My king, Do you remmember? I did say you that whole the castle and property in it was only a performance of a witch."
The king hadn't trusted the prime mandarin but at the moment he believed. With all of his anger, he roared.
"Where is he, the swindler? I have to chop his head."
"He is going hunting." said the prime mandarin, "We need to send some peopple to and ask him where the castle is. He must know it."
"It's too generous for him." said the king, "Send thirty soldiers to and escort him to here."
King's order immediately was imparted. The prime mandarin carefully directed the leader of soldiers not to let the sinner escape. The soldiers left and met Aladdin 6 miles from the city. The leader told Aladdin that the king wanted to meet him and he had to go back with them. Aladdin had no sign to doubt. He followed them. However, when they was half mile from the city, soldiers suddenly rounded him.
"Prince consort Aladdin," said the leader, "I'm very sorry to inform you that we have to catch and escort you back city as a criminal. This is king's order and we are on duty. Hope you understand and forgive us."
Aladdin's surprised he asked the leader for some information but the leader and others didn't know much more him. Aladdin was apart from his servants. Besides, soldiers were more numerous than his sevants. Aladdin left horse, landed on ground. Soldiers wore a heavy chain on his neck, rounded it around his hands and then a soldier took the ends of the chain. The leader went ahead. Right after him rode the soldier who was pulling Aladdin, the poor man he had to walk. The others rode after them. People realized Aladdin when they went in city. They thought Aladdin would be killed. Therefore, they, people who loved and respected him, rushed into soldiers, rounded them and tried to free him. The soldiers were so great they didn't lose Aladdin in the people's hands. The people stopped at the square. Some of them who brought weapons stood in a row facing to king's castle. They looked Aladdin was brought and vanished after the closed gate.
Aladdin was led to king who was standing on balcony with the prime mandarin. Just saw Aladdin, the king immediately ordered excutioner to kill Aladdin. He didn't want to hear any explain. The excutioner took off the chain around Aladdin's neck and hands. He spread a piece of animal skin which was dyed in red by blood of other criminals. He forced Aladdin to knee on the blood skin then covered his eyes by a piece of cloth. The excutioner took his sword, raised up and waited for king's order.
Meanwhile, the crowd of people in square were rounded guads of king's castle, found the way to get pass the wall. The prime mandarin saw it and before the king ordered, he stopped it.
"My king, you should carefully think about what he is going to do." said the prime mandarin, "This caste can be broken in and you can be in danger."
"My castle can be broken? Who dare?" roared the king.
"My king, please look at the square and the wall surround castle, you we will see what I just said." said the prime mandarin.
It's too chaotic around the castle now. The reaction of people was too violent. The king hurriedly ordered the excutioner to stop, took of the piece of cloth on his eyes and then freed him. Besides, he ordered guards to inform that Aladdin had received favour. The crowd of people stopped. The people who were upon castle's wall leapt down. They happily informed the news to others. They all felt satisfied because they just saved the person they love. Later, the crowd of people dispersed they left.
Aladdin was untied, he looked up at the king and with a grateful voice, he said:
"My king, please do me another favour. Let me know what crime I did. Why do you treat me that?"
"What crime? Don't you know Aladdin?" grunted the king, "Follow me. I will let you see."
The king went ahead he didn't take a look to Aladdin who was after him. They went to the empty room.
"Come in. You must know where your castle is. Look then tell me where it is now."
Aladdin looked to the place where his castle have to be but he also didn't see anything. He looked whole the empty area carefully. He didn't imaged how the castle could vanish. Therefore, he couldn't give his king the answer he wanted. The king turned impatient he repeated.
"Where is you castle? Where is my daughter?"
"My dear king, I see. I admit the castle I built has vanished. I also don't know where it is. I swear that I don't relate to it's disappearance." said Aladdin.
"I don't care about your castle Aladdin. What I care is my daughter. I want you bring her back to me or I will chop your head." he grunted.
"My king, please, give me forty days. I will try effort to him her in the time. If I don't find her, I myself will bring my head to you."
"I will give you forty days but don't take advantage the favour I give you. Don't hope you will escape from my anger. I will find you though you go to anywhere."
Aladdin left in shame. His head downed as he crossed castle's yard, didn't dare to look at castle's guards he walked in silence. The guards also didn't see him they stood with backs turned to Aladdin. Though they wanted to comfort him, they would not realize him. He also didn't realize him now. He lost his mind. After leaving castle, Aladdin behaved as a madman. He knocked on every door he met on his way, asked people whether they saw his castle. The words gave others an idea that Aladdin lost mind. Some of them only smiled they didn't know anything than him. Others who had close relations to him pitied him. Aladdin wandered in city three days, ate things others gave him.
At last, he moved out it. He couldn't live in that expensive city. He headed to fields, crossed them with miserable mood. His mood turned worse as sundown. He thought about death. Aladdin went to river bank.
"Where can I find my castle and the wife I love? Which province? Which coutry? Or which part of this world. No, I can't. I have yo free myself from this suffering."
Aladdin planned to end his life by jumping into water but rules of his religion stopped him. He had to wash his hand before to die. He managed to washed his face and hands. However, the place he stood was wet and sloping. He would have been slipped down if he couldn't grabbed a on a rock jutting out from the bank. The accident made him remembered the magical ring which was on his finger now. Aladdin didn't want to drop in water so he rubbed the ring on the rock. The jinnee of ring immediately.
"What do you want master. I sever you the owner of magical ring. I and every slave of magical ring obey all your orders." said jinnee of ring.
Aladdin's happy because the appearance of the jinnee brought hope to him.
"You will save me one more time." said Aladdin, "Let me know where my castle is and somehow bring it back."
"What you want is over my power." said the jinnee, "You have to order jinnee of magical lamp."
"Behalf on power of ring, I ordered you bring me to the castle wherever on this world. Put me under Badsoulboudour's room's window.
When he had finished the words, the jinnee brought him to Africe, put him on grass where was not far big city. He stood under Badsoulboudour's room's window. All thing only happened in few seconds. Though it's night, Aladdin could realized his castle and Badsoulboudour's room. He left finding a place to rest. He sat under a ancient tree thinking about what he had passed for days. He felt lucky as he was saved right the time before he was executed. He spent time thinking then, fell in sleep. He hadn't slept for five days.
Birds woke him up the next moring. Aladdin saw himself under trees surround castle. He looked at the magnificient castle and felt happy because only few minutes later, he would get owned and was stayed besides his wife again. While he was waiting the castle open, he thought, thought about all things had happened in days recent. He remebered that he had left his magical in his castle but he couldn't image who had performed that magic bringing his castle to there. Firstly, he mentioned his castle was in Africa and Africa was hometown of the witch, his enemy.
Princess Badsoulboudour woke up early than usual from the time she was brought to Africa. She had to meet Africa witch one time a day. However, she was so stern that Africa witch didn't dare to bother her. While she was wearing, a maid looked through window and saw Aladdin. She hurriedly let her mastress know. Badsoulboudour walked to window at one and realized her husband. She tugged the window it made a loud bang. The noise made Aladdin start, he looked up and saw his wife. They both brusted into happiness. A maid left she went to opened door. The secret door under princess' room was opened. Aladdin followed the maid, went in. He and his wife met again. Happily,they hugged and gave the other love kisses. It happened in long time. Later, they sat down. Aladdin said first.
"Princess," said Aladdin, "before I explain all things, because of benifits of you, me and our king, I request you to know about the old lamp on edge of wall. Does it still at there?"
"Oh my dear husband," said princess, "I have ever thought that the disaster come from that old lamp and I feel very sad because I am the person who was reason of that disaster."
"My love, my princess," said Aladdin, "Don't blame yourself. It's my fault. I should have kept it carefully. Now we should find the way to repair my fault and you have to tell me what happened to the lamp and who is the person owning it now."
Princess Badsoulboudour told Aladdin that she had changed magical lamp to have a new. Then, things happened after that. The castle trembled in night of thr day the lamp was changed. The next morning, she woke up and felt she was in strange country and she only knew there was Africa after the witch told her.
"Princess," Aladdin interupted her, "You just let me know the name of my enemy. He's the most artfulest person on the world but it's not time to tell you more about him. What you need to tell me now was. What did he do to the lamp? And where is it now?"
"He wraps it carefully and always bring it in his clothes. I saw it one time when he showed up it as like a feat."
"My princess," said Aladdin, "don't turn angry because things I'm going to ask you may make you feel tired. It's important to me and also you. I want to know how he treat you."
"Husband," said princess, "he come here one time a day and maybe because he don't feel satisfied from visits, he bothered me less. All he told me on purpose to destroy my belief in you, to make me believe that we will never meet again because you have been executed at somewhere by my father. He didn't stop at that, husband. He also told me that you are ungrateful person. He said that all things you had came from to him. Course, he still told thousand things about you but to reply him, I only cried and lamented. I think he will wait for my love changing but he also can use force if he isn't patient enough. However, now you are here and I don't need to worry more."
"My wife," said Aladdin, "I have reason to believe in your worry. I have a plan and it will help you escape from our enemy."
"I have to go to city first and will come back before lunch, then I will tell you my plan. Don't surprise as I appear in different clothes. You have to ask your maid to open the door for me right the first time I knock on the secret door." added Aladdin.
His wife promised that a person would wait at the door and opened it right time he knocked.
Aladdin followed secret tunnel to leave the castle. He looked around and saw a farmer in the distance. Aladdin chased after the farmer and asked him to changed clothes. The farmer agreed and the changed was progressed in bushes. After that, they're apart. Aladdin found the way to city. He crossed city's gate, went in crowded streets. Aladdin went in a store and asked the seller about a kind of narcotic powder. The seller said he had the powder but it's expensive. Aladdin understood what the seller meant. He opened his pocket, showed the seller golden coins. The seller gave Alladdin a wrap of the powder Aladdin wanted and asked for one golden coin. Aladdin took the wrap, gave the seller one coin then left. He stopped at a restaurant, got a fast lunch before went back castle. The secret door opened right at one when he knocked. He went straight to Badsoulboudour's room.
"My wife," said Aladdin, "you showed me that you hated the witch but now you have to hide your thinking. You maybe have to use force to escape from the suffering of our enemy. Your father will be happy if he's met you again soon. If you belive me wife, right now you have to change in beautiful clothes. And when he come, you have welcome him. Do it naturally because if you don't, he will realize. While you and he converse, he still attempt to make you forget me, tell him that you will try. Make sure that he believe you. After that, you have to invite him to have dinner with you, ask him for the best wine. He will go out to find it. While the time he's absent and the dinner is prepared, you put this powder in the goblet you used to use. Remember to tell your maid to know about it, request her not to forget your goblet. The witch will come back and sit on. You and he will eat a little first and when suitable time come, hint maid to bring your goblet come. You say that you want change your goblet with his. He will never refuse. It's a favour to him and he will drink whole wine in it. If you feel disgusting to use his goblet, pretend that you are drinking. The power of this powder is very strong. He will fall in sleep at one and don't know if you drink or not."
"I admit that it's not easy to do what you just said." said princes, "However, we have to because he's our enemy. I will follow you husband."
Aladdin directed his wife then left.
Princess Badsoulboudour's so sad she was apart from her husband and even her father who loved and pampered her most. She even forgot makeup which she always did everyday because of sadness. Then, when the first time Africa came to her room, her maid let her know that he was the person who changed their old lamp, she could image a little. Therefore, she felt disgusted the person, Africa witch. Luckily, her husband came and gave her chance to revenge, gave her hope escaping from there. Therefore, she decided to do what her husband said. After her husband left, she had bath, wore in her most beautiful and luxurios dress, the golden waistband and a thirty-pearl chain which had the biggest pearl at the middle, bracelets which attached gems, diamonds, ruby... beautiful and suitable with her dress. After that, she sat on front her mirror asked maids to make up her. When she had felt sastisfied, she found the way to sit on sofa waiting for Africa witch.
The Africa witch didn't forget to come to princess' room as usual. He crossed the living room where princess Badsoulboudour was waiting him. She stood up, raised her hand and hinted him to sit besides her and waited him to sit down. All her gestures were formal and charming. Africa witch had never been welcomed like that before. He was shocked one was admired her beauty that jewel she wore on turned commonplace front that beauty. Firstly, he wanted to sit on edge of the sofa but princess Badsoulboudour wouldn't sit if he didn't sit on the place she wanted. Therefore, he came and sat besides her. He felt confused as she looked at him there was no disgust on the way she looked him. It's too different with the times he came before.
"You must feel surprised. My behaviors are too different with things you saw in few days passing, cry, lament, sink in sadness. I did think about things which have happened to me and things you told me, what happened to Aladdin. I know my father's character and ensure that Aladdin could escape from his anger. I can't revive him though I cry more. Therefore, I have to continue living, get rid of the sadness and find other happiness. I think that is also what Aladdin, my husband want at me after he die. Think you want to become my friend. I will tell people to prepare the dinner. Stay here and drink with me."
"I only have chinese wine while we are staying Africa. I wanna taste wine here and I think you have. If you can, I want the best." added princess.
Didn't think that happiness came to him fastly and easily like that, Africa said that he couldn't use any word to explain his gratefulness getting favour having dinner with her. He introduced her kind of Africe wine and said poudly that producing wine was strength of Africa. He also let her know about a kind of wine which was kept in sevent years before to be used. He praised it was better than ever best wine in the world.
"If you allow, I will go and take two bottles." he said.
"I don't want to bother you. Had better we should have another to do it." said princess.
"I myself need to do it. No one but me know where the store is and only me know about that wine." he said.
"If it's the reason." she said, "Please hurry up. I'll be here waiting for your return."
Africa witch bursted into happiness what he did was not running he flew, hurriedly brought the sevent-year wine back. Princess Badsoulboudour herself had put nacortic in a goblet then gave it to a maid before Africa witch returned. They went in dinner table, sat opposite and ate for few munites before she asked for drink. The maid who brought the nacortic-powder goblet was their wine servant. She stood behind Africa witch. The maid gave her mastress a full wine goblet.
"Cheers!" she said, looking at him.
She drank a gulp of wine.
"You're right about this wine." she said, "I have never drunk any better."
"My princess," he said, raising the goblet princess' maid gave him, "our wine get more value because of your praise."
"Drink for your health", he added then took a gulp.
"My princess, I haven't felt much happy in my life. I admit I've not drunk this delicious wine in such happiness before."
They continued eating and drank three times. Africa witch was charmed by gentle gestures of princess. He fell in love with her and didn't doubt anything. Princess Badsoulboudour hinted the his maid and that maid understood her pouring wine in the nacortic-powder goblet. She gave her mastress the full wine goblet. The witch's goblet was also filled full. They both took their goblets.
"I don't know how people living in here behave but in Chine where I live, people always give their lovers their goblets and recieve the others'. They drink for love, for health of the others." she said, heading her goblet to him and also raised the other hand to receive his goblet.
Africa witch hurriedly received princess' goblet and considered that he had gotten princess' love.
"We are also subtle in love. Of course we don't behave like you but I will please to study it from you." he said, "My dear princess, I will never forget this moment as I receive your goblet, I seem to get again my happiness which is nearly destroyed by your cold."
Princess Badsoulboudour who had been disgusted with his endless words interrupted.
"Drink then we will talk more."
Pricess Badsoulboudour raised the goblet up on her mouth but she only pretend that she was drinking while Africa witch happily drank whole of the wine. He turned face upward to finished his wine. Later, he stood up then his eyes rolled up. He fell down he's unconscious.
The secret door was opened. Aladdin appeared. He went to living room where Africa witch and princess were. Africa witch was lying on sofa. Pricess Badsoulboudour was standing near that. She nearly rushed into Aladdin to hug and kiss him if he didn't prevent.
"Princess," he said, "It's not time to do it. I need you to come back your room and order all people to leave me alone. I have to manage to bring this castle back China."
Princess Badsoulboudour, maids and slaves moved. They left Aladdin alone in living room. Aladdin closed the door as they left. He approached Africa which and found magical lamp in his clothes. He got it. Then, he rubbed on it as usual. Jinnee of magical lamp appeared.
"Behalf on magical lamp, I order you to bring this castle to China, put it in the place it have to."
The jinnee nodded then disappeared. The castle was moved in very short time. People only felt it trembled two times then it had been put on China, front of Aladdin's king's castle.
Aladdin found the way to princess' room. He hugged and kissed her.
"My princess, my wife," said Aladdin, "I'm sure that you will get more happiness if you wake up in next morning."
Badsoulboudour's father, the king had sunk into great misery since his daughter disappeared. He didn't sleep days. Before that, he only went to the empty room one time a day at morning admiring Aladdin's castle, now he went to it many times. He cried, sank deeply in his misery because, he would never see what he like more and especially, he maybe hadn't met his daughter who he loved very much again. Early morning, he went to the empty room, sadly looked at the empty place where Aladdin's castle had been but that time it's not empty. Thought that he's wrong because of fog, he rubbed his eyes and looked again. Course, he's not wrong Aladdin's castle was brought back the last night. The king turned happy. He immediately went back his room, ordered a horse. He wanted to come Aladdin's castle at one.
Aladdin guessed what would happen. He woke up early, wore in nice clothes. He found the way to living and waited for king's appearance. He saw the king as he looked through window. Aladdin hurriedly went to the gate and helped the king down his horse.
"Aladdin, I only talk to you after I meet my daughter." said the king.
Aladdin led the king to room of Badsoulboudour who had woken up and was dressing. The king appeared as she had dressed. Princess Badsoulboudour rushed into her father, hugged and kissed him many times. They both cried, because of happiness. It happened for minutes they didn't speak a word. At last, the king started.
"Daughter, I feel happy because you don't change much. If mean you don't get any danger. Course, I can image that you was nervous as you was brought to a strange place with whole of this castle. I want you to tell me every detals, don't scare." said the king.
"My father," said princess, "You must see me few days ago father. If my husband didn't appeare, I don't know I would've been now. Luckily, Aladdin, my dear husband who I thought I had lost him forever came and freed me. The happiness I was met my husband, hugged and kissed him help me get again my beaty as you see now. Honestly, my miseries were not only being apart from you, my father and Aladdin, my husband. It's also I feared that you would do things not wise to my husband, Aladdin because of your anger. Then, he, the swindler tried to filled my mind bad words about my husband, Aladdin. Father, I daresay that Aladdin didn't relate to the disappearance of his castle. That's because of me."
Then, princess told her father details. She told him about Africa witch who had pretended as a lamp trader and behaved as an idiot, cheated her to have Aladdin's lamp because she didn't know it's magical lamp which related to castle's move. And, she only realized it as the Africa appeared and started flirting her. She explained that she felt very unhappy before she met his husband, Aladdin. She told her mother about their plan inviting Africa witch to have a dinner and poisoned him.
"My king," said Aladdin, "as the secret door was opened, I hurried to living where the witch was lying. I found my lamp and ordered it to bring castle back China where it should be. I brought princess back as you ordered. If you don't believe me my king, you can went to living room, the witch's still there."
The king stood up, went to living room he want to have a reason to believe. Africe died lying there with a white face.
"Aladdin," said the king hugging Aladdin, "don't hate me because of my behaviors before. You must know why I did that and I think I should be forgiven, because of my daughter."
"My king," Aladdin said, "I don't complain about your behavior you have to do that. The fiendish witch, the worst person on the world himself is cause of all things. If you have time, I will tell you more about him and things he have done to me which was not better than things you've heard."
"We will talk about it on other day. I need to spend a little time with my daughter. Before that, I think yoy should bring this dirty thing out of my sight." said the king pointing at the dead.
Aladdin ordered people to bring the dead away. A ten-day party was held the king wanted to congratulate Aladdin and Badsoulboudour's return. Music resounded. People danced, drank and enjoyed meals happily for whole ten days.
Aladdin one more time escaped from danger that no one though he could. However, it's not end.
Africa with had a twin brother who was even more fiendish than him. The tiwns didn't stay in a same city. It's daytime at place one live while it's nighttime at the other's place. It meant they stayed far away the other but because of future-telling, they knew about the other.
Short time after Africa witch died, his twin did a future-telling about him. He wanted to know where his brother was and how his life was after one year he didn't have a news from him. He took his sandy box out, drew and counted. He didn't any difficult to find out that his brother had poisoned at a palace in China by a person who had humble origin but got married with princess. The twin didn't wasted yime to pity his brother it didn't revive him. He decided revenge. He mounted on horse then rode straight China's capital. He crossed many fields, rivers, mountains and including desert. It's a long and hard journey. At last, he arrived to China then its capital. He foud an inn and rested in in.
He went out the next morning. Instead of admiring the beaty of city, he watched and heard people people talking he was seeking some ideas for his plan. Almost things he heard people say related to morals, kindness and special abilities of a woman who secluded herself from others. The woman's name was Fatime.
He approached one person and asked him about Fatime.
"What?" said the person, "Have you never seen or heard about her? She was the kindest and respected most here, a long-term vegetarian person. She lived apart from others at her place and only left on Monday and Friday going in city, helping others. She cure others by touching on their heads."
He requested to know Fatime's place and the person directed. He followed and observed Fatime on the day she went to city. Afternoon, Fatime turned back her place, he followed her till there before got back to city, paid a little money to have a place in tea shop where people could stay instead of their homes in hot days of summer. He waited till midnight, left the tea shop and went straight to Fatime's place. It's not difficult for him to open the door. He opened it and then closed. Fatime, now, was sleeping on a sofa which stood again wall. Grabed a knife, he approached and woke Fatime up.
Fatime opened her eyes. She's both surprised and scared as a man was going to stab her. Poor Fatime.
"If you scream or make a noise, I will kill you at one." he frightened, "Wake up and do what I say."
Fatime stood up. Her body still trembled because of scare.
"Don't scare." he said, "I only want you clothes. Take off it and put on mine."
They changed and when he had put on Fatime's clothes, he said:
"I want you to make up me like you."
Fatime still trembled and to calmed her, he said:
"Don't scare. I swear I will not kill you."
Fatime led him to other room, powdered and drew on his face. She wore her hat on his head, covered his face by her veil and directed him how to hide his face as he went out city. At last, she wore long glittering chains on her neck, gave him the stick she used to use then brought a mirror to him.
"Look! You will not find out the difference between us." said Fatime.
The twin got satisfied but he didn't keep his promise. He didn't like blood so he strangled her then hid her in a corner of that house. He stayed in that house whole the night though he just did a disgusting thing at there. Next morning, though it's not the day Fatime left her house to go in city, he went out he believed that people would not notice. Of course, if they noticed and asked him about it, he could satisfied them by his answers. He had known where Aladdin's castle was because it's the first thing he had to do one he went there. He went straight Aladdin's castle.
When others saw him, they rounded him because they thought he was Fatime. Some of them begged, some kissed his hand, others kissed her shirt while the others kneed front of him, begged him to cure them. The twin behaved as like Fatime's behaviors that no one doubted he was not Fatime. After few time stopping to satisfy the crowd of people, he had been front of Aladdin's castle. The crowd of people jostled, argued to approaced and got favour from him. That created loud noisy. The noise came to the living room of Aladdin's castle where princess Badsoulboudour was. Badsoulboudour asked a maid to go and find out what was going on while other maids looked through windows and saw a crowd of people who were rounded Fatime.
Princess had heard about Fatime but she hadn't met her. She's curious. She wanted to meet and talk to her. Therefore, he ordered four slaves to go and invite Fatime. Four slaves went out and approached the twin, the fake Fatime. The crowd of people broke up as they saw people from Aladdin's castle come. The twin was freed from the crowd. He felt happy because his plan acted.
"Princess Badsoulboudour want to meet you Fatime." said one of slaves, "Follow us."
"It's my honour. I'm willing." he said.
He followed slaves to castle, hid his black heart under shape of Fatime. He was led to the twenty-four-bamboo screen room.
He started a lot of words which begged for princess's health, wealth and wishes, prayed all princess' wishes were meet as he just saw her. He charmed her by sweet saying and fake behaviors. Of course, he got what he wanted. Princess Badsoulboudour's too kind and thought innocently that all people on world were kind like her, especially people like Fatime who severed the God.
"My kind-hearted mother," said princess, "Thank you because of the prayers. I belive God will meet them. Mother come here and stay besides me."
Fake Fatime came and sat besides princess.
"I have a request and hope you don't refuse it." said princess, "I want you to stay here in this castle with me. I want to take care of you and study things from you."
"Princess, I pray you not to force me. I can't ignore my god and prayers." said fake Fatime.
"It's not difficult Fatime. Here has many empty rooms for you to choose. You can stay in any room you want and also whatever you want in it." said princess.
The twin had no purpose more. He was protected by princess Badsoulboudour in Aladdin's castle. Of course, it's better than he left and returned may times to do his plan. Therefore, Badsoulboudour didn't need to insist him much.
"Princess," he said, "though I've been apart from secular activities, I don't dare to refuse you, a kind-hearted princess who trust and give me much love."
"Mother," said princess stading up, "go with me and look the rooms."
He followed princess Badsoulboudour, watched all the rooms she led him to. All of them were clean and luxurious and enough furniture. On purpose satisfied princess, he chose the wrost room and said that it's the best for him. After that, they went to twenty-four-bamboo-screen room and had lunch there. Of course, they had to take off veils in lunch. He didn't let it happened praying princess to give him some bread and fruits he wanted to eat in his room. Princess Badsoulboudour agreed.
"Mother," said princess, "You can behave as like you are in your place. I will order people to bring you your lunch and I wait you here after lunch."
He turned back to princess Badsoulboudour after being informed that her lunch had finished.
"Mother," said princess, "I'm very happy as you live here this castle. What do you think about this castle mother. Before you consider other rooms, I want to know your thinking about this room."
Fake Fatime lowed his head from the time he returned he acted well and he only turned his face up when he was asked. He looked around then said:
"Princess," he said, "This room's very beautiful. I've never seen any place more beautiful. However, I feel this room still lack of something. It's not perfect."
"What's that mother? Let me know." said princess, "I've thought and also heard that this room lack of nothing but now you have different thought with me. I want to hear it."
"Princess, forgive me." he said cautiously, "This's only my thought. I think in midar, at middle of the dome, hanging an Eagle's egg. Yes, I will make this castle more beautiful than all castles on the world. Your castle will become a wonder of universe."
"What's Eagle mother?" said princess, "And where do I find its egg?"
"My princess, it's a huge and marvellous bird living in the highest mountain in Caucase. The architect of this castle can find an egg for you."
Princess Badsoulboudour thanked him about the suggestion. They talked about other things but princess didn't forget about the egg. She intended to tell her husband after he came back from his huntting. The huntting lasted in six days. Fake Fatime took most advantage in the time. The night Aladdin returned, fake Fatime had asked princess to go back his room dodging Aladdin. Aladdin's went to princess' room fist, hugged and kissed her but she seemed not happy.
"My princess, my wife," he said, "You are not happy. What make you unhappy while I'm absent? Tell me. I will try all my effort to make you happy again."
"It's only a small matter husband." said princess, "I planed not to tell you but you realize it, on my face. Then, I won't hide you though it's not matter to talk. I've thought that our castle's the most beautiful and it's perfect. However, it just came to me when I observe our living room, the twenty-four-bamboo-screen room. It will get more wonderful my husband if we hang an Eagle's egg at middle of dome."
"My priness," said Aladdin, "if it's thing you want, I will manage to do it. I will do everything you want because of my love for you princess."
Aladdin left. He went toward the living room, took out magical lamp. He rubbed it. The jinnee of magical lamp appeared.
"Jinnee," he said, "this place lack an Eagle's egg hanging at middle. I want you to find it behalf on magical lamp your..."
Aladdin still didn't finish his words.
"What? YOU UGRATEFUL!!!" roared the jinne, his voice made whole the room tremble and frightened even the bravest people, "I and my fellows have done all things orders but it's still not enough for you. How do you dare to order I bring my master to here and hang under this dome. Only it, because of it, I can burn whole the castle, you and also your wife into ashes. Luckily, it's not your idea. It's the idea of brother of Africa witch, your enemy. He is in you castle under shape of Fatime. He want I myself kill you because you don't know what you just said is a insolent request. Be careful." The jinnee disappeared.
Aladdin had heard about Fatime and the way she cured people. He didn't waste any time, went toward princess' room. He complained that he felt headache, raised hands up he massaged his head. Immediately, princess ordered people to invited Fatime came. While the time they waited, princess told her husband that she had invited Fatime came and lived with them in their castle.
Fake Fatime went in.
"Mother," said Aladdin, "come here. I'm happy to meet you here and feel more happy as I'm informed you will live here with us. However, I just had headache that prevent me to hug and kiss you in happiness. Mother, I beg you to pray for me and help me get rid of my headache."
Aladdin bowed he grimaced as though pain was bothering him. Fake Fatime approached Aladdin with on hand touching on a knife he put on his waist. Aladdin realized it and before the twin could took out his knife, he grabbed the twin's hand and used his knife, stabbed to his heart. The twin died, Aladdin pushed him down on ground.
"What are you doing?" screamed princess in scare, "You did kill Fatime, the kind-hearted woman."
"No, my princess," said Aladdin, "I don't kill Fatime. I only killed a unfeeling person who could have killed me if I was not cautioned." Aladdin took of the veil on the twin's face. "He himself killed Fatime with no feeling and behaved as her to come here. You will surprised if you know he's Africa witch's twin."
Aladdin ordered people to throw the corpse the told his wife details. Therefore, Aladdin had escaped fromthe twin witches that meant his life wouldn't be bothered by them more.
Few years later, the king, father of princess Badsoulboudour turned old and died. Princess Badsoulboudour became the heir of the throne. She and her husband, Aladdin shared the power ruling the country for many years.
