Princess Rajapatni - Gayatri - 9

Princess Rajapatni - Gayatri - 9

Historical Note:Prabu Jayakatwang is the regent of Gelang-Gelang. Pre-bu Jayakatwang is a descendant of Kertajaya (the last king of Kadiri Kingdom). According to Pararaton and Kidung Harsawijaya, Prabu Jayakatwang harbored against Ken Arok's descendants. For this reason, he rebelled.

*

Issues about the plan of rebellion eventually infiltrated the palace. Slowly, your officials lai whispered. Although they were afraid to open their mouths in front of Ayahanda. Of course, Father's punishment was more frightening than any threat. Everyone knows, your father trusted Prabu Jayakatwang too much. Father's determination is unshakable.

I know, Raden Wijaya and his followers are trying hard to quell terror. Raden Wijaya's plan doesn't play. Several times, kotaraja geger. Several bodies were found hanging in the square. They all wear black masks. While at their feet hung bun-palan. The contents of the bundle were apparently the loot from the houses of the people. The same incident repeated when it became a robbery in the surrounding area. The robbers of t

hang in the square with loot tied at their feet.

Either out of fear, or preparing another stratagem, the bramacorah then visit less often. Ayahanda laughed with satisfaction. He sipped twice as much when he heard the news. Ayahanda assumed, the existence of a helper knight is proof that the gods protect Singasari.

“No one can dare to mess with Singasari!” That is the cry I always hear in the great hall.

The full moon, a celebration was held. The events of Ardaraja and Maha were more vibrant than I imagined. Uncle Jayakatwang came with his wife, Aunt Terukbali16. We princesses warmly welcomed their presence.

Auntie immediately hugged us one by one. Too bad, Uncle Jayakatwang's entourage refused to stay long. After the farewell procession was completed, they immediately intended to bring Maha to the Bracelets.

“You all should come at the show ngunduh mantu

later,” order Aunt Revealed.

We all nodded. The farewell was full of tears. We all feel sorry because Father determined that his daughter-in-law would have to live in the city. Ardaraja had to stay away from his parents. That's ma'am a fun thing.

16 Terukbali (real name) is the queen of Bracelets. Daughter of Vishnuwardhana (father of King Kertanegara)

“Princess Gayatri.”

I blinked for a moment. My neck was goosebumps hearing that heavy voice. Uncle Jayakatwang smiled back at me. Unfortunately, his smile made me feel threatened.

“I heard, Princess Gayatri will soon be married to Raden Wijaya?”

I nodded without daring to look at him. “De-think decision Father, Uncle.”

“When will Wijaya depart back to Suwarna-earth?”

“If not wrong, three more days.”

Uncle Jayakatwang laughed. “I have to come to your wedding.” He chuckles. Unfortunately, I win-cap the bad intent of those words.

“Honey once, just proposed instead have to split.” Uncle Jayakatwang slightly quipped, “Is Raden Wijaya the one behind hanging the brama-scrawls in the square?”

“Why did Uncle ask me that?” “If not with you, then with whom?” challenged

Uncle Jayakatwang, “You are the future wife of Wijaya. You should know everything about your future husband.” I clenched my hands. “Why can Uncle

think so?”

“Do not pretend to be plain. Catching criminals will make him more loved and appreciated again, right?”

“It is inappropriate for me to talk about it, Uncle. Moreover, I am the future wife of Raden Wijaya.” Finally I raised my face to look at Uncle Jayakatwang fixedly. Uncle Jayakatwang's eyes narrowed a little. His smile at that moment looked vile.
