That morning, Sin Liong was sitting alone in his favorite place with Swat Hong, which was on the very quiet beach. The beach, which is never covered with snow because of the white colored sand that comes from broken rocks and all kinds of shells and cocoons, always seems to give off warm air. While he was sitting pensively, he heard the sound of drums being beaten incessantly, a sign that that morning a very important court hearing was being held. This trial was held approximately three months after the last three convicts were exiled to Hell Island.
The sound of the drums seemed to hit Sin Liong's chest, because it was the sound he disliked the most. This sound signifies that another person will be punished! So he didn't move, decided not to watch because watching would only mean facing things that hurt him. But he jumped up when he heard Swat Hong's voice calling, it was a different call than usual because the maiden's voice contained startled sobs.
"Kwa-suheng !!"
Sin Liong was surprised to see the maiden running to him crying and with a very pale face.
"What's wrong, Sumoi?" he scolded before the virgin arrived in front of him. "Suheng..., wretched... my mother "
Even though his heart was pounding with surprise and shock, Sin Liong was calm when he held both of his Sumoi's shoulders and asked, "What's wrong with your mother? Calm down, Sumoi."
Swat Hong held back a sob. "They... they arrested my mother and brought her to court "
Sin Liong furrowed his brows. "This is too much," he thought.
Curiosity made him act a little rough. He took her Sumoi's hand and pulled her away saying, "Let's see!"
When the two men arrived at the courtroom, they discovered that things were different

once with a court hearing that had been because the atmosphere was very quiet. No one was allowed to approach the courtroom, even when Sin Liong and Swat Hong arrived there, they were stopped by several guards.
"Sorry, by order of His Majesty, no one is allowed to enter the courtroom today," they said.
With both hands clenched into fists, Swat Hong leapt forward. His eyes widened and his face turned red, "What did you say?! You dare not let me enter the room? Are you tired of living already?!"
Sin Liong quickly held his sumoi's arm because he understood that if his sumoi was angry, the consequences would be great. Also the guards backed away in fear because they understood how skilled this Princess was.
"Please report to your superiors that we are about to enter the courtroom," Sin Liong said calmly to the guards.
"However we are only obeying orders. How dare we disobey?" replied the chief guard with a confused face.
"I know. My mother was on trial, wasn't she? Well, listen up! Whatever happens to my mother, I have to be present. If necessary I'll kill you all to get in!" again Swat Hong snapped.
"Brothers, please step back and let us in. As a result, let us both bear it," Sin Liong said again and the two of them forced their way in.
The guards didn't dare to stop them, but they quickly ran to report inside. Han Ti Ong furrowed his brows when he saw Sin Liong and Swat Hong enter the courtroom, but he only nodded at the confused guards. This relieved the hearts of the guards and they quickly left the room to guard outside, because they were not even allowed to listen to the court that was trying the king's wife!
One can imagine Swat Hong's heart breaking to see his mother calmly kneeling before the court table with a young man dressed as a palace maid. Her heart skipped a beat and she was horrified to see her mother and the young man kneeling there. It was as if he saw Sia Gin Hwa and Lu Kiat, the two convicts who had committed adultery with each other! But he didn't believe it! It can't be her mother...!
However, Swat Hong became limp and complied when Sin Liong grabbed him and asked him to sit in a row of side chairs which were completely empty this time. Behind the long table sat only the prosecutor, the judge, King Han Ti Ong, his empress, and Han Bu Ong, an eight year old boy who wore beautiful clothes and sat majestically near his mother. Han Bu Ong's eyes looked at Sin Liong and Swat Hong arrogantly.
Then came the Prosecutor's loud voice, a sound that was to Swat Hong's ears like a sword piercing his heart and to Sin Liong like thunder in the middle of the day!
"Liu Bwee, as the former wife of His Majesty, from an ordinary fisherman's son to an honorable noble, it turns out that you repay His Majesty with disgrace and dishonor. He has been arrested for committing adultery with a young maid. This sin is very big, because apart from causing disgrace and embarrassment to His Majesty, also if it is known to the outside world it will disgrace the name of the Ice Island Kingdom. Therefore, he should be given the harshest punishment possible."
"Liar...! You can't possibly" Swat Hong screamed and was about to jump forward to attack the prosecutor
dared to accuse his mother like that, but Sin Liong grabbed her arm to prevent her sumoi from moving.
"Swat Hong! How dare you be impudent in front of Father?!" Han Ti Ong shouted with authority.

"Father, the accusation is sheer slander! It's impossible for Mother to do such a dirty thing. Where is the evidence? Who are the witnesses?" Swat Hong came back screaming.
"Hong-ji, don't be like that. Your mother is innocent, but we must obey the rules and laws, my child. Calm down." These words came out of Liu Bwee's mouth who turned towards Swat Hong, his voice was soft and clear, but contained a heart-rending sorrow.
"Liu Bwee, you have heard the accusations against you. What is your defense?" the old judge's voice sounded soft and gentle as usual, but full of authority because in this trial he was the most powerful person.
"I will not defend myself. Just as my son said earlier, so as not to arouse curiosity, please state who the witnesses are and what evidence supports the accusations against me," said Liu Bwee in a calm and soft voice.
This prosecutor was among the members of the royal family who were displeased with Liu Bwee because he had also expected Han Ti Ong to choose his daughter. Immediately he said loudly, "The proof? You were arrested when you were in the room with A Kiu, even though he was not your servant. What else are you doing if not adultery? A woman and a man who are not related to anything are inside just the two of you! Apart from that, someone has witnessed your adultery."
Swat Hong's face was briefly pale and briefly red. He couldn't contain his anger. His mother was accused of adultery with a maid!
"It's a lie! That's not proof!! If someone had witnessed it, who would have witnessed it?" he shouted without caring about Sin Liong's prevention, who was still holding his arm for fear that this virgin would go berserk.
"I am the witness!" suddenly there was a small melodious voice and Han Bu Hong had risen to his feet in a defiant manner. This child's mouth smiled mockingly and his eyes twinkled. "Enci Hong, I was the one who saw your mother and the maid in bed"
"Sssttt, shut up. !" Empress pulled her son.
But the judge said again, "It has been proven that Liu Bwee made a big mistake. The biggest mistake that a woman can make."
"Wait a minute!" with a very pale face Swat Hong interrupted the judge's words. "It's unfair to put it this way! We haven't heard A Kiu's statement yet. Hi, A Kiu, I believe that you are a human who values valor. It is impossible for a man who lives on the Island of Ice like you to slander him as a despicable coward. Come on, tell me, what is it really about? that happened?!" Swat Hong's voice is so loud.
A Kiu's face turned pale, his head lowered even more. The atmosphere became silent and finally broken by the King's voice.
"A Kiu, you are allowed to speak!"
The body shivered. His handsome face was pale as he looked up at the King, then glanced at Liu Bwee who was still calm and majestic kneeling beside him. When he glanced at Swat Hong who was standing haughtily looking at him, A Kiu sighed softly, then lay on his stomach and said in a sobbing voice.
"Servant is helpless... I am indeed in that room... but... unlike the testimony of the Little Prince... I am forced because..."
"Dare you say my son is lying?" this scream came out of the empress's mouth and a tremendous blow struck when the empress moved her left hand towards A Kiu.

"Desss...! Aughhhh...!" A Kiu's body was thrown over and over and fell lifeless again, blood was flowing from his mouth, nose and ears.
The empress did a great long-range shot, right on A Kiu's head, which of course couldn't hold it down. The judge and the prosecutor looked at each other, while the King rebuked his Empress, "You are too presumptuous"
"Should I stay silent if a lowly person like him insults our son?" The Empress rebutted in a somewhat curt voice.
The king was silent and took a deep breath. He felt confused and grieved once he had to face this matter. Finally the King motioned to the magistrate saying, "Continue."
The judge swallowed a few times, then said loudly, "The main witness who is the perpetrator of adultery has been killed because he dared to insult the Prince. However, he confessed that he was in that room, so it is clear that Liu Bwee's sin has been committed. Therefore it is only fair that he must be given a severe sentence. Liu Bwee, the court has sentenced you to exile to Hell Island!"
"Mommy!!" Swat Hong struggled and broke away from Sin Liong, jumped and bumped into his mother.
"Sssht..., calm down, Hong-ji..." his mother whispered in a calm manner, even though her face looked even more sad.
"Calm down? No! You can't be insulted like this!" Swat Hong then stood up, faced his father and said loudly, "My mother has been sentenced without clear evidence and witnesses. However, the verdict has been passed and I am not willing to see your mother thrown into Hell Island. I am her only child, who will not be able to repay her. with my life, I will represent her, bear the punishment. I will be her successor to Hell Island, so hope Your Majesty will be wise, let this mother who is getting old spend her age on Ice Island. Mother, goodbye!"
"Hong Ji !" his mother screamed, but Swat Hong had already jumped up and ran out of the place with a bang
fast.
Sin Liong looked on with furrowed brows. He didn't expect that the thing he had been worried about would happen, something unpleasant, something that would actually explode like this.
"Hong-ji... ah, Hong-ji, my son !" Liu Bwee could not hold back his tears anymore.
He understands that it is impossible to catch up with his daughter because her daughter's intelligence is already very high. As a prisoner, of course he also did not dare to break the law and run away from that place. "Ouch, my son... Swat Hong... Swat Hong... what did they do to you?" broken mother
this is wailing.
The judge became confused and several times turned towards the King, as if he wanted to ask for Han Ti Ong's decision. This king bit his lip, irritated and angry because he had not expected that matters would drag on like this. When he received the report about Liu Bwee, his first wife, who had committed adultery with a young maid, his heart was hot and furious. However, he still wants to bring this case to court so that the fairest decision can be taken.
Who would have thought there were things that were not pleasing to him. His consort killed a young maid, then now Swat Hong defends his mother, even replaces his mother 'throw away' to Hell Island. So now seeing how confused the judge was and demanding his decision, he pounded his right fist against his left palm while saying, "Never mind, never mind! Let me fulfill Swat Hong's request. That stubborn child has replaced his mother on Hell Island. That's it! I'll allow Liu Bwe just stay here!"
After saying this, he took the hands of Bu Ong and his empress, got up and was about to leave the unpleasant place. But Liu Bwee also rose to his feet.

This woman said aloud while looking at her husband's face with sharp eyes. “Even though my son has made up for the sins I didn't commit, and I have been allowed to live here, but what will living here mean to me after my son goes to Hell Island? No, I won't want to live here anymore. think of myself as an inhabitant of Ice Island. I want to get out of here too!"
After saying this, Liu Bwee then jumped up and left. After he was no longer a prisoner, after he was no longer a prisoner, he dared to leave, even with no respect for the King who had been his husband and idol for so many years.
"Hmm, as you please!" said Han Ti Ong slowly and with a somber face this king entered the palace with the empress and Prince Bu Ong.
