Princess Rajapatni - Gayatri - 4
Historical Note: According to genealogy, Raden Wijaya should have been the king of Sunda Galuh Kingdom. Due to the political conflict, Raden Wijaya was eliminated from the palace. Dyah Lembu Tal—ibu Raden Wijaya invites Raden Wijaya to seek asylum in Keraja-an Singasari. Prabu Kertanegara is the cousin of Dyah Lembu Tal. Therefore, Singasari accepted them with pleasure.
This event took place during the reign of Prabu Kertanegara.

“Sa ... rwa .. telu ... pat ... five ....”
The voice of Maha is increasingly heard sayup. I giggled while looking back. Knowing no one was coming, I stopped running. Look again, I see a big fern tree in front. Steady! This is my way of finding a safe place for sound.
The set! The set! I removed the cloth on the leg. I fastened tightly, so that my feet would be free. I jumped into the tree. Holding on to the tree bollards, I climbed up. When I got to the top, I saw Pradnya making noises in the bushes. The other princesses also hid behind the tree trunk, accompanied by their maids.
It's boring! What is it like to hide in an ordinary place? It's been discovered for a moment. Just wait! I'll wait for them to surrender. Then, I will appear silently to surprise them! Feel it!
But this cempaka tree is less exciting for sembu-nyi. After all, here is not fun at all. I need to find a more challenging place. But, where is it?
My gaze immediately fell on the mango tree in the next complex. My saliva came up to see green fruits hanging there. Well, this is just fun! Hiding, you can eat mangoes. Once paddled, two three islands were surpassed.
Quickly, I moved through the wall. If my jump is correct, I will soon land on the next complex page. After that, I had to avoid the bodyguards to reach the mango tree and climb up its.
Hurrah! It's just challenging! I rubbed ta-ngan again. All of these plans have made me very excited.
Siji, loro, telu....
Hup!
I succeeded! My feet are now stepping on the grass hi-jau. I was immediately blown away by the sight in this part of the palace. Impatiently, I tucked behind the tree trunk to walk to the mango tree section. I picked a tree that was not too tall. It didn't take me long to climb. I immediately picked the most striking fruit. The color of his skin has turned yellow. Even the sweet smell tickles the nose. It's appetizing.
I managed to bite the skin of the fruit. I peeled off my hands, and then I tasted the sweet flesh. Satisfied - enjoying mango directly on the tree is really irreplaceable. Full stomach, happy heart!
The wind started to blow. I smiled while stroking my stomach. The shade of this tree immediately made me sleepy. I almost fell asleep when I heard the footsteps of some people. The fear of being caught made me cling to the tree. I sat on the big branch with an alert attitude.
“Singasari is also your home, Dinda Dewi.”
That's the voice of Ayahanda. You know, how come there's a father here? Secretly, I peeked at them. Several soldiers and maids accompanied Ayahanda. A woman who was not my mother, stood very close to Father. Although he was crying, his movements really attracted the heart. Our distance was close enough that I could see the face of the woman and the child next to her. But.. who is he?
“They poisoned Kanda Jayadarma.” The woman is sobbing. One hand hugged the boy. I stuck my neck out, wondering. This is a kid, who else? Until all are welcomed. He's not a samba-rangan guy.
“Thanks to Jagad Batara, Dinda was able to pass all the tempests and managed to survive until here.”
The woman is still crying. However, unlike the woman, the child next to her was completely disdainful. Never mind crying, his face looks more like a statue. There was absolutely no expression there.
“Is our presence not a hassle?”
Ayahanda's laughter at that time sounded very happy, “Why should it be troublesome, Dinda? Dinda Bajradewi must be happy to see Wijaya.”
The boy is down now. Very perfect manners. And he's a boy.
This fact hit me very hard. I'm envious!
Why was he born a man?
The boy bowed his body. His mouth spoke ra with the softest tone and grammar I heard, “Salam, Gusti Prabu.”
That one sentence immediately made Father fall in love. His laughter was so happy.
“Your name is Sanggrama Wijaya?” ask Ayahanda. “True.” The child answered firmly. Ayahanda.
put your hands on the boy's head. Really look happy.
I don't know if my hatred for Raden Wijaya started back then. Did I hate him first? Or did he hate me first? All I know is that after Ayahanda introduced us officially, Raden Wijaya more often said spicy sentences with criticism. The attitude is much different if the prince is obsessed with other princesses.
***
Time then increasingly proves the kedigda-yaan prince. Increasingly, Ayahanda and almost everyone in the palace liked Raden Wijaya. She loved Raden Wijaya since they first met. The prince was very intelligent. He is able to express opinions with a sweet mouth that does not hurt the other party.
Just as I saw that day, his expression was like a statue. Raden Wijaya rarely showed emotion. However, everyone was devastated seeing his decisiveness. Even Tri who was a few years older, still saluted Raden Wijaya.
Poems! If only I were the same guy as him, I would definitely challenge him to a formal fight. I'll beat him in front of everyone. So that he could swallow all his words back to me!
But of course it never happened. Popu-Large Raden Wijaya increasingly uphill. The people wanted to see the Prince compete.
Like that afternoon.
Ayahanda deliberately held a de-greater routine war games. He seemed very satisfied to see the soldiers showing off their respective skills. The chariot troops, horsemen, arrow troops, and frontline soldiers alternated in front of the royal members.
Raden Wijaya appeared with the senapati and the commander who was specifically ordered by Ayahanda to train him.
Expertly, Raden Wijaya showed the beauty of archery. The tough warriors lost the tan-ding battle with him. He really looks bright in adolescence. His body was getting thicker with clay muscles. His buying face looks solid. Look at his eyes firmly.
Compatible with thick eyebrows like a beautiful luk7. His nose was pointed, while thin lips softened his flat expression. When he was fighting, his eyes looked like a terrifying predator.
“Fight, Prince!”
“Prince! You are so great!”
The cries of the princess made my head dizzy. The sekar kedaton was running towards the nearest place de-ngan Raden Wijaya. Ignoring the more bothered ladies-in-waiting, I saw Tri and the other princesses standing where the sun was shining the most. There was the most strait-wearing place to watch the show. As soon as the trumpet blows ended the training time, they immediately rushed towards Raden Wijaya. The ladies are preparing to serve the beloved Prince Ayahanda. Not to be outdone, the princess immediately stretched out a handkerchief to mengesuluh the Prince's sweat.
“Bi! Get drinks! Fast!” “Sit first, Prince.”
I'm clucking. Do not want to dissolve in the euphoria of the Prince's fans. There's someone more pen-ting to me. Someone who does not get much attention, but his humble attitude more captivates my heart.
My smile grew to see him wipe the sweat alone. I took a kettle from Gendis. Then I walked towards the young man. One naughty idea came to my mind. If I startle him, it'll be even more exciting!
7 Luk = indentations on keris
Siji, loro.. close!
I held back the laughter as the young man shook his head while snorting in annoyance. My palm closed his eyes until he couldn't see me.
“If the leg does not recognize me, I will be very angry.”
The young man I closed his eyes to was—Arya Virendra, immediately smiled and turned to face me. With a gera, he took my hand away from her.
“Your attitude could harm me, Princess.” Contrary to his sentence, a lightning bolt was seen when Viren's gaze collided with me.
“No one saw here,” I said indifferently. “Everyone is admiring Raden Wijaya. No one would have thought they would see us.”
“Ant fear we will be punished?”
I pushed the kettle to Viren. “Da-Da would rather take care of that prince than law me.”
Viren smiles. He thanked me. Then lift the kettle to his mouth for a drink. “It seems, Princess hates Raden Wijaya so much.”
I took a breath. “For what do I hate it?” “Maybe, because the prince has confiscated the
shed prabu Kertanegara affection?” Viren said naively.
“Duh, Kakang..., should I crave the love of a king?” I can't hide the disappointment in my tone of voice. “We princesses are just a group of women who will soon be married for political gain. Isn't that what happened a long time ago?”
Viren laughed quite loudly. Viren's hand was stretched out and held in the air. Why didn't he just touch my face? Our crooked eyes are both questioning that.
“Daughter, when will you understand politics is the business of men?”
“And our business is to please you guys?” sindirku sharp. As always, Viren bends bi-beers. Showing off a stupid expression that always managed to lower my emotions.
“Already, Princess. Thinking about things that do not have gu-nanya will make you wrinkle fast.” Viren said cheerfully. Unfortunately, I know, he deliberately diverted the talk.
“There is one thing I want to ask.” This time, he said while showing off his white teeth. He also held his chin up while occasionally glancing at me. Viren. “What was... Princess see my appearance?”
I nodded and Viren shook off an amused smile.
“Thank God. I think no one noticed me at all. My appearance must be very bad. Look, where there are women who come to praise me.”
It's bullshit! There was nothing bad about Viren's pillagers back then. Despite blending in between the sekum-pulan of the coaching forces, his figure looks prominent. His hand moved the spear and shield rivetingly. I even know, Viren didn't bring out all his abilities. If training alone, he really does not seriously bring out his moves. That said, Viren studied at one of the toughest warriors in the martial world. However, Viren did not want to show the knowledge he learned in the army training. Fortunately, he was willing to teach me a little. That was after I whined to him.
“Do not be low self! You look tam—” Just now I was about to say something to praise him, suddenly Viren got up and turned around. Guilt was clearly visible as he lowered his head deeply.
“Please forgive me, Gusti Prince.” Huh huh? Gusti Prince?
“Arya Virendra, don't you think long will be the result of your actions?”
That voice!
I turned around and saw him.
Raden Wijaya now stands in front of Viren. Viren ma-huh is silent and down. Viren's position did not make him have to kneel to Raden Wijaya. This seems to make Raden Wijaya increasingly upset.
Uh, wait a minute. What's the haughty prince here for? Wasn't he enjoying the praises of the princesses?
Raden Wijaya's fierce gaze now turned to staring at me. As if answering my question, Raden Wijaya took a breath and said, “Officers have gone to pasewang8 and the soldiers are starting to return to duty. Why are you still here?”
8 Kinds of meetings
Viren who was forced to answer that question, “Sorry, Prince, we just chatted for a moment.”
Raden Wijaya shook his head. His look at me was disappointed.
“A princess is supposed to be a sweet and meek girl. A princess should keep her attitude wherever it is.”
“From what we do, what do you call not keeping attitude, Prince? Would the Prince prefer to offer the Prince a handkerchief? Worshiping Prince? Is that a proper attitude?”
My cynical remarks seemed to sting Raden Wijaya. His jaw was red. Viren even glared at me in fear. He must be afraid this will bring trouble.
But I don't care.
I am ready to accept punishment. Raden Wijaya has the right to report to Ayahanda for the humiliation I have done. Or all complain of my closeness de-ngan Viren. Let's just say I've been punished a lot. My daughter's been bad. I don't even care if your father would liken me to a dignified commoner.
However, Raden Wijaya did not do that. A fiery thump flared in his eyes, but his lips were tightly clenched. His expression was the same. Cold and flat.
At the time, I thought he hated me. But apparently, I was wrong. I really don't know Raden Wijaya. How do I know his heart?
If only I had known, maybe I would have stayed away from Raden Wijaya more.
Yeah, who knows if it turns out that this grace and disaster in my destiny began
