Follow the king's order and search every house in Khambhat.
The soldiers left the prime minister's house and started searching every other house.
The spies came to the upashraya also.
There is no
one
here.
Even after extensive search they could not find Kumarpal.
During the night the minister brought Kumarpal to Acharyashri and explained the situation. Acharyashri took him to a cellar. Prince, get down into this cellar.
He then closed the door and covered it
with a heap of books.

A few days later minister Udayan gave some money to Kumarpal and said
Prince, this is the opportunity. Please go far away from here.
Kumarpal once again went into jungles.
