At the time, King Matutarat was informed that King Suphommamokkha had his beautiful queen. So the king commanded his ministers to kill King Suphommamokkha for his queen. When the ministers and troops arrived at Suphommamokkha’s palace, they saw the queen. They were fascinated by her beauty, like they were spelled. They forgot their king’s command. They just looked at her. When King Matutarat acknowledged that he was angry at them.
