The princess explained to the king that she had spent time with him by mistake, and said, "It was my destiny, and I do not regret it!"
On hearing them, the bride confronted the king and said, "O King, what destiny has given to me, none can take away from me!"
After hearing everybody and consulting his ministers, the king arranged for a ceremony. He gifted the young merchant's son with a thousand villages, apart from ornaments and golds. He married the young man with his young princess, and made him his heir to the throne.
The bride-in-waiting, and the watchman's daughter were also married to him, by their respective parents, in the same ceremony.
When he built his own castle, he arranged for his parents and relatives to be brought to his place, and they all lived happily ever after.
