Dr. Tin Win - Those who love Min Kyan Sit

Anawrahta

King Anawrahta looked at the other soldier sitting in front of him with his head bowed, with a very heavy heart, a feeling of incredulity and impurity.

Kyan Sitthi was a man who always held his head high. He was always active and always smiling. Kyan Sitthi was not one of those who spoke lightly and acted carelessly. This was because Kyan Sitthi had been familiar with serious thoughts and serious actions since he was young, and he was more mature than his age.

When Utsapagu asked for reinforcements, I sent the four heroes I had chosen and treated well, along with the rest of the soldiers, with their own troops.

At that time, the other generals showed an expression of pride that they could not hide, but the rest of the soldiers

He didn't say anything, but accepted my orders with a calm attitude that made it impossible to easily judge his inner feelings.

Since then, I have been saying it myself. I have not followed the rest of the soldiers, but I have dared to send your people to this war with the metaphor of sending 400,000 soldiers.

As I believe. Soon after you leave, a group of horses and a message will come to me.

It arrived. Not only did it prevent the Jun warriors from capturing Utsaa, but it also prevented the Jun warriors from taking over any more.

I was able to resist the attack completely. King Uttha prepared a large number of gifts for his daughter Mani Sandar and sent them to Anawrahta, the King of Bagan. I already knew from the message that the army and the generals would have to wait for the princess to arrive, so it would take a long time.

Anawrahta was saying these words in his mind as he stared at the other soldier.

Three days ago, the army and Princess Mani Sanda returned from Utsara, and King Anawrahta himself waited and welcomed them with great respect outside Bagan. His Majesty the King paid tribute to the Bagan warriors who had come to help. In addition, the Bagan Emperor showed his respect for Princess Utsara, who had come as a symbol of friendship.

When dealing with other countries, whether a country is small or big is not important. Being an independent country is the most important thing. And Bago and Bagan are blood relatives. That is why Anawrahta personally welcomed the princess of Pannataw, Mani Sandar, who came from Bago.

The people of Bagan welcomed the returnees, who had returned from the victory procession with trumpets, drums, and flowers, just as you and your audience welcomed them. The people of the city shouted, raised their crowns, and danced with joy, throwing water and incense sticks. At that time, the heroes who had returned to their homeland were also joyful and happy.

I saw the other soldier from afar riding a big brown horse at the front of the army. I was very happy when I saw him. When I first met this young man, I fell in love with him. I know for myself that whenever I see him, I feel calm and happy.

The other soldier, except for the fact that he was a little tired from the journey, looked as happy and cheerful as before. When he saw me, he jumped down from his horse and bowed his head to my feet. Then I remember how he raised his face and smiled at me respectfully. My son's face seemed even sweeter because of his sunburned skin and white teeth. Yes, I always called the other soldier my son in my heart. Yes, I have always thought since I came to the throne that I would raise young people like you as my strong force.

After I defeated Sukkata, who had made my father a monk and made my mother queen, I was able to seize the throne of Bagan. My son, the king, who had always called his successors the Lord of the Waters and bowed to them, and the wise and well-mannered ministers, who had always called me the Lord of the Waters and bowed to me, also called me the Lord of the Waters and bowed to me.

I know their thoughts and actions well, having been in and out of the palace. I am the son of a deposed king. It was only because King Sukkata made my mother his queen that I was allowed to live near her, not to be killed or sent away. But I had no possessions or possessions of the princes.

Both Sukkatay and many others thought that I was a person who would become nothing. Sukkatay not only took my mother, but also mocked and called her brother. At that time, those who bowed their heads in front of me and worshipped me as the Lord of the Waters, laughed at me to please Sukkatay.

I often cry when I tell my father about it at school. The other soldiers cry too. But I don't cry. I cry because I can't help it.

My father watched me cry without saying anything, then called me "La-hey" and began to train me to improve my fighting skills. He then gave me the Arindam spear and ruby ​​ring that he had kept with him.

. I was able to defeat Sukkata because of the spear my father gave me, and because of the fighting techniques my father taught me. But when I asked my father to take back the throne of Bagan, he refused. “My son, if you want the land of Bagan to continue, please give birth to a new force,” he said.

Since I ascended the throne, I have taken my father's words seriously, saying that I would only give birth to new energy, and I have searched everywhere for young people like you who can be called new energy.

Bagan was a small kingdom of Pibi until I ascended the throne. There were people below Bagan who were poor, and there were small areas scattered all over the place, each with its own responsibilities. I went to the area with great diligence and caution, organized, and pledged allegiance.

Until I met you, I was careful about the power I was using. Do you know why? They were the ones who were angry with you during the reign of Sukkata. I don't think they came to me because they loved me and liked what I did. I am the one who defeated the one who was angry with them and punished them. That's why they came to me with their pain and anger. I can't decide whether you should be angry because of their mistakes or because Sukkata was not smart. I don't have time to decide. That's why I joined them and looked for new forces like you.

The Bagan Pyae Shin Anawrahta was calm and looked at the other soldier. His mind was seeing the meeting between him and the other soldier 14 years ago. Those who came to drink the water of loyalty to the Bagan Pyae Shin and the king with the sharp sword and spear, or those who ran away, and those who did not fall into either category, were the only ones who were watching without falling into either category.

It's amazing, Anawrahta thought. I started to notice you guys coming to the temple every day to drink the water of truth, and then asking for special things, and you guys who were constantly checking my temporary palace. That's why I called you, and you came in front of me with a straight face.

I forbade you from taking the swords and spears you brought with you, so you were allowed to come before me carrying your swords and spears.

I noticed that you were the elder among you because you took the lead from the moment you entered, you sat closest to me, and your personality was pure.

That's why I just looked at you and started talking. It would be more correct to ask first than to start talking. What is your name, so I can answer one question. The rest is a soldier. So I continued, I'm only 14 years old. Oh... I thought to myself that you're still young, but I looked at you carefully, because of your tall, slender body and dark skin, and you're also quite strong. I was wrong to think that you were in your 20s. Your face is still as young as a baby's.

The fact that you're not even 14 years old shows that you're really trying to be an adult. Yes, since the founding of Bagan, young people like you have had to mature quickly like men instead of playing with their peers.

While looking at you, I suddenly felt a desire, "My son, I will take you to Bagan with your group, will you come?" I asked. I have called you my son since the day I first met you. You also became angry. Aw.. Aw.. You are a bad son of a bad mother and father. I found out about this later.
