when King Pajajaran arrived at the residence of the prince pandu, Iya immediately barged in. He also asked questions of his son.

"what happened, prince...?? Why are you suddenly injured like this.??" asked King Pajajaran to the prince pandu. Prince pandu smiled listening to a series of questions from his father.

"i'm fine Dad, it's just that time I was less focused. so my arm was hit by a slash." said the prince guide calmly.

King Pajajaran who heard the words from his son was only able to sigh long. How not, since the Queen Mother refused Gayatri to be the consort of her son, the attitude and vigilance of the guiding prince decreased. Not only that, even his firm attitude was no longer visible.Prince Gugu turned into a prince who did not care much about his power and safety.

"the next time you don't be like that prince, remember you are a prince who will later become king in this Kingdom. I have high hopes for you, so please always be vigilant." said Raja Pajajaran with a clear voice.

"i know father." he said again.after that there was no more chat between them.

while in the Majapahit Kingdom, King Raden Wijaya began to think about the things about the prophecy, although at least the prophecy did not happen, but at least they already have preparations.

"what should I do. I should negotiate with the prince of Mandala and Sadewa alone." said the King of Majapahit again. after monologuing to himself, King Majapahit immediately sent his fastest bodyguard to send a message to the Mandala exhibition.

elsewhere, the rested Prince Mandala was tired of working all day in his fields, now surprised by the arrival of a shadow guard from his kingdom.

"greetings to the prince. Sorry to interrupt your glorious time." said the bodyguard, bowing before the Mandala prince.

yes, the bodyguard barged into the residence that was not much, lucky that the prince of guidance immediately realized that the one who came was his father's bodyguard.

"say ! what's the bodyguard.. Why did you come to see me at nights like this.?" the prince asked the guard, and the bodyguard lowered his head again.

"Sorry prince, I came here because I was sent by the king's majesty. I want to deliver a letter from his majesty." said the shadow guard while handing a scroll to the prince Mandala. prince Mandala immediately received the letter and then without further ado he immediately read it.

the letter explained that Prince Mandala came to the palace to discuss the prediction of a drought season 1 year later that might lead to famine everywhere.

the prince who read the noble letter of the King was not surprised, because he already knew it. Not only did He know it, Mr. Senopati and his family also knew the prophecy. they also made preparations.

"alright, you should not go back to the palace tonight.we will be back together tomorrow, but we will also include Mr. Senopati and his family." said the prince guide to the shadow guard. the shadow bodyguard immediately saluted back.

"good noble prince." after their brief conversation.The prince guide and the shadow bodyguard instantly rested according to their respective positions. prince Pandu has also telepathically sent to his father that he will come along with Mr. Senopati and his family who are willing to come to the palace to negotiate this matter. and it does not matter to the noble King Majapahit.

***

the next day, the prince Mandala and the shadow guard went straight to the residence of Mr. Senopati. Before they went to the residence, the prince Mandala had telepathically done to Gayatri and his two brothers. to inform them that they will come to the residence to invite Mr. Senopati and his family to the palace, in order to discuss about the forecast of drought that will occur One more year.

finally the prince of Mandala and the shadow guard arrived at the residence of Mr. Senopati. When they got there, it turns out that Mr. Senopati and his three children had stood at the gate of their residence, waiting for his arrival.

"greet your highness the prince." said Mr. Senopati and his children, after they saw the arrival of the prince Mandala there.

"it doesn't need to be like that Mr. Senopati, coming home maybe soon I'll be your son-in-law hehehe." the prince joked to them. Mr. Senopati and his family smiled listening to the joke of the Mandala prince.

So also with Gayatri, inexplicably he could not deny that his heart was really warmed to hear the words of the prince Mandala. article has been almost a year this Mandala prince lived in the settlement of this valley, lembayung, enough to give a place in Gayatri's heart.

not because the Mandala prince was a prince, but before the identity of the Mandala prince was revealed, Gayatri had already admired the figure.

"how is the deck style...??" prince Arga and Diran asked their younger brother. Lately they like to tease Gayatri.they also have no problem with the Mandala prince, because according to their judgment, they are not, prince Mandala is a simple living person and will probably be far from the political machinations that exist within the palace.

while Gayatri was being teased like that, again just being shy of cats. It was unceasingly bowing its head in embarrassment, moreover, its cheeks had already spouted a pink hue.

"Well prince, are we leaving now..??" asked Mr. Senopati to stop the act of flirting with his children to his only daughter.

"Oh of course Mr. Senopati. come.." invite prince Mandala.prince Mandala make a teleportation to make it easier for them to arrive at the palace without having to tire of the long journey.

one by one they began to enter the dark-colored circle, which directly connected them in front of the gate of Majapahit palace.

***

and here they are now sitting together with his majesty Raden Wijaya, the crown prince of Sadewa and queen madila.

they gather in the garden behind the palace, this negotiation they will do only family. They wanted to do a dress rehearsal before finally asking for the approval of the other nobles.

"So, I deliberately invited Mr. Senopati and also the prince of Mandala to just negotiate small, before finally asking for the approval of the nobles and the high-ranking of the palace. I want to ask for an opinion on the prophecy that will happen one year later." said Raja Majapahit directly to his goal.

" can Mr. Senopati give me a little input..??" asked the Majapahit King for a gathering like this, King Raden Wijaya did not place himself as the king of Majapahit. instead he put himself to have a simple conversation with his friends.

"please apologize in advance, Your Majesty, but I thank you very much for involving us. actually for the forecast of the drought that will happen One more year it will definitely happen, it will certainly happen, we are also the people in the valley settlement of the Lembayun already made preparations."tutur Senopati. while others were silent and listening including Raden Wijaya and his wife.

"at this time, one land we have focused on growing rice and wheat, because according to the calculation, this rice and wheat will be harvested after 3 months of planting. finally we decided to plant both seeds." said Mr. Senopati again.

"after these two seeds are harvested, we will store them in the storage we have prepared. Likewise with durable plants.we have also dug or provided several barrels to hold water that will likely be needed more than we can accommodate." said Mr. Senopati again. while the Mandala prince just listened, because all the ideas came from Gayatri.Prince Mandala did give some ideas, his name also comes from this world, they don't yet know of a shelter that's at least modern.

"then How to do it Mr. Senopati.and why should plant rice also, rice is only for the food of the poor people." said King Majapahit a little mention of rice cultivation. Mr. Senopati smiled at the words of his king.

"sorry, my majesty, all of us in the valley are commoners, and of course the rice is suitable for us, but when compared to the grain with rice, We are indeed more suitable for rice." said Mr. Senopati again. The Majapahit King was a bully - his head understood.

"then Mr. Senopati, what solution will we take to overcome the disaster later." asked Raden Wijaya again.
