'It is not a sign of arrogance for the king to rule. That is what he is there for.'

The first minister was extremely shocked to see such an outcome. If Eesan was the crown prince who served them earlier, then he was clearly aware of their plan to poison the food. Otherwise, he wouldn't have talked about passing out after eating the food.

Aditha walked on the dais and stood before the first minister with his one hand on his waist. His face had a cynical smile looking at the old man.

Other ministers shook the first minister to bring him out of his thoughts.

Aditha: Porungal... Mudhanmai amaichar sindhithu kondirukkirar andro???

Viraivil puviku thirumbi viduvar...

People laughed at his comment. The first minister looked at him with eyes full of anger.

First minister: Enna vesham idhu Ilavarase???

Thangalin thagudhiyaiyum tharathaiyum izhandhu ithagaiya izhi seyalai seiyalama???

Thangathil pirandhu vayirangalil thavazhndha Thaangal, makkaludan makkalaga amaruvadhe paava seiyal...

Aditha: Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha....

Enna mudhanmai mandhiriyare???

En makkal izhivanavargal engireera illai....

ENNAI IZHIVANAVAN ENGIREERA????

His voice roared in the hall. The first minister lost his voice for a moment and whispered.

First minister: Mannithu vidungal... Naa pizhandru edho koori vitten...

However, the crown prince didn't bat his eyelid at him and proceeded to address the ministers.

Aditha: Ingu irukkum mandhirigaluku ippodhe koorugiren... Ninaivil padhithu kollungal...

Makkalidam sendru avar nirai kuraigalai arivadhu oru nalla arasanin seiyal endru en Thaatha, Kalinga Varmar eppodhum kooruvar.

Nandanar nodded his head at this time.

Aditha: Avar vazhi vandha naangalum idhai thondru thottu seidhu varugirom... Engalin vamsamum idhai endrum pin thodarum...

Idhai izhivaaga pesuvadho illai makkalai izhivaago pesuvadho nadakkumaayin, Ungalin uyir atra sadalangale indha avaiyai vittu sellum...

Immakkal illaiyel, andha sengolum illai... mani mudiyum illai...

Makkalukkagave Neengal... ungalukaga makkal andru...

The ministers were truly shocked to see such a change in Aditha. He always kept his cool and never lost his calm in the royal court. However, they totally saw a different crown prince that day.

Minister 1: Ivan arasan aanal naadu sezhithidum...

Minister 2: Nammudaiya pizhaippuku theeyittu azhithiduvan....

Minister 1: Adhanal dhaan maharaniyar Ivan arasan aavadhai thadukka muyarchikkirar.

They whispered between them and then looked at the crown prince as he searched for something.

Aditha scanned the crowd and called a man from five rows behind.

Aditha: Ayya... Thangal peyar???

Man: Vanangugiren Ilavarase. En peyar Kuppan... Poovanathai sutriya praandhiyathin graamadhigaari.

Aditha: Vanakkangal. Thangalai yaaro avamaana paduthiyadhaga manam nondhu kondeer andro???

Kuppan: Adhai kettu vitteera Ilavarase???? Adhu vandhu... Adhu vandhu Ilavarase????
