Hey guys how was the week? Sri Lanka lost their series against kiwis but every Sri Lankan knows that Sri Lanka has a high chance of winning the world cup. Well the executive presidency is still not abolished ...so much for CHANGE:-) One of my good friends who helped me start this blog told me that I write with attitude - do I? Is it good? Anyway time for the recap....oh how much I wish our president was Mr Mahinda Rajapakshe. The new president's economic and tax policies are causing havoc in Sri Lanka 's business field. Anyway now time for recap real time:
Patiya's men are having fighting practices even in the night. The uncle minister divides the group into two main groups the bad fighters and the good fighters. The good fighters are to go to Haburankatha while the bad fighters are to be the Western gate gaurds.The coup is going to start the night before the elephant and angampora festival. The former Yakaladoli points out that the scholar/astrologer said that the auspicious time is on the day after the festival. Nobody listens to her. The fighters don't like the idea of killing aSinhala King. Patiya Bandara says yes nobody can kill a Sinhalese King so I the one with the blood of the late King Wimaladaramasuriya will lead you to Haburankatha and kill the Kundasalaya(insult to the present King's Prince name).
The noble Lady is going to Haburankatha Palace. Her servants sing her praises. She is carried in a open carriage and her parade is beautiful to watch. They continue to also sing praises to the King even their driver joins in. The mother of the noble Lady is also going in an open carriage.
The Western gate guards are recruited by the bad minister the good minister comes and watches them. The good minister enters the main Palace. Daskon narrates and writes on his journal that even though the Palace is getting ready for festival how all the ministers are suspecting each other and thinking about who is planning a coup. The good minister has come to meet Daskon I think and he gets up to greet and meet him. Daskon tells the minister that they are both thinking of the same thing and why are we not telling everyone about this. The good minister says he met the main priest and he is working according to how he said. He continuous to say that he is suspicious of Yalagoda the bad minister and that he had sent the uncle minister to meet Patiya Bandara. Daskon is shocked he looks like his worst nightmare has become reality.They continue to speak the King is to go to Habuarankatha tomorrow. Daskon says he is not going to go with the King but with the Queen consort.The good minister says Daskon is the only one he could trust Daskon says you are the only one I trust too. The good minister points out that the King shouldn't be sent to Haburankatha alone. Out of the blue Yalagoda the bad minister comes and says there we have finished our work we have recruited more guards to the Western gate than required. Daskon and the good minister are shocked they both remember the good minister saying that walls have ears - did Yalagoda hear everything?
Someone is spying on the Noble Lady's carriage. They are unaware of the spies the servants continue to sing praise to their Lady very happily - pls don't tell me they are going to be killed by Patiya Bandara's spies. Pls don't tell me they are going to be killed:-( We stop here.....to be continued tomorrow.....
