The Hylva Dynasty Conflict

26. Return of the princess

Now Rarapati and Hardijaya arrived in front of the palace gate. Their horse's steps stopped because of two soldiers.

“Show your family member or palace board sign card, Sir, Madam." Said one of the guards.

Hardijaya opened his headgear and showed a pin marking royal family. The sight of it made the guards retreat and kneel. “Sorry for the sassness of the prince's servant, please enter.”

Hardijaya took Rarapati's hand and led her into the palace hall. With a veil still covering Rarapati's head, the entire palace maid began to discuss who the girl Raden Hardijaya had brought

The vast and magnificent palace was filled with orange and gold shades . High mast poles towered upwards lined the road leading to the main hall. Large curtain curtains in white and yellow are transparent arranged beautifully dangling at every corner of the pole. Fish ponds and colorful flower gardens add to the impression of beauty that is presented.

“Over time not here, everything looks different, Rai.” said Rarapati.

“No Nyimas, everything is still the same as 3 years ago” said Hardijaya while smiling thinly.

“What will Nyimas say when meeting Ayahanda later?” coined.

“There is so much to say until Nyimas himself confused where to start.”

The two brothers could only sigh deeply.

After walking long enough through the royal hall, Rarapati and Hardijaya finally arrived in front of a high and large door, the main door entering the royal hall.

“Umure my presence!” hardijaya said to a eunuch.

"Pardon the prince's servant, but inside there is a council meeting." said the eunuch as he gathered.

"PROMISE MY PRESENCE NOW!"

“B-good prince”.

“PUTRA CROWN ENTERS THE ROYAL HALL!”

The door slowly opened, revealing a spacious room in a round shape. In the middle there is a small pond with a multi-storey fountain, to the right and left of the room were many golden chairs occupied by the council of Ministers and their subordinates while the king sat across the hall with a golden chair in the shape of a sleeping tiger.

The king who was sitting was staring intently at Hardijaya and Rarapati.

“What does the prince need to cut my side with the council of ministers?” King Saying.

The ruler of Nusantara land as well as the successor of the descendants of the Hylva Dynasty had a sturdy body, eyes as sharp as an eagle and a straightforward voice. Her power can be felt even by hearing her voice.

“Hail the noble.” said Hardijaya and Rarapati while prostrating.

“Force noble Raden, but Raden brought someone who would give his majesty important news.” Its effects.

Rarapati stood up and revealed the hood that covered her head.

Time seemed to stop for a moment, not just the ministers who peg. The king was watching the woman standing in front. Reviewing the tip of the foot to the tip of the hair is really his favorite daughter.

The whole Minister began to boisterous because he was surprised to find the person they thought was dead was still alive. The king lifted from his throne, he walked over to Rarapati with a fixed gaze.

“My daughter, is this really you?” said the king.

Eyes sparkling. While holding both sides of Rarapati's shoulders, he observed her tattered camping appearance.

“Ayahanda, this is Nyimas. Sorry Nyimas has been gone too long.” said Rarapati with tears that began to pour.

King Candrayana immediately hugged his daughter tightly “What happened to you all this time, wherever you are.”

“This is a very complicated story father, Nyimas must tell all this in front of all members of the royal family.”

“Alright my daughter. TODAY'S TRIAL IS FINISHED, WE CONTINUE TOMORROW.”

However, after the mourning period of the princess's death, every day the council of ministers always urged the king's majesty to appoint a new crown prince.

“RIDAN, CALL THE ENTIRE ROYAL FAMILY FACING ME RIGHT NOW IN THE PALACE HALL.”

“Good noble.” Said the King's special Eunuch

Ridan immediately rushed to call the entire royal family, he helped two other eunuchs roam the palace gathering all the royal members who were busy with their respective activities.

While waiting for all members of the kingdom to come, Nyimas Rarapati trying to get his father's attention so as not to judge anyone too easily.

“Ayahanda, no matter whether the father will believe Nyimas or not after this family meeting, but need the father to know that what Nyimas will say later is true. And it has been Nyimas' responsibility alone for these three years."

“We'll find out about my daughter soon." The king looked at his daughter's pity, sitting back on his throne.

The last to arrive was Queen Mother Ratnaningrat, mother of king Candrayana II. When he came, everyone was obliged to rest and pay their respects.

“What is it that makes His Majesty call us to the hall immediately?” ask the Queen Mother.

The aura of this former Queen is really gripping. His firm and straightforward attitude could even be felt just by looking at him quietly.

“Look at Mother, Queen, who is coming.” said the King as he pointed towards Rarapati

Everyone turned to the girl who had fallen down next to Hardijaya.

“PUTRICU? IS THIS REALLY YOU?” said the queen hysterically while hugging Rarapati.

Everyone in the hall seemed surprised by the princess' arrival, not the happy face they showed but the look of hatred and resentment. Moreover, Ambarawa's gaze towards Rarapati, her annoyed and angry expression was very clearly visible from the look on her face.

The palace family was never as simple as an outsider thought.

“Nyimass, ayu misses you so much.” Say Nyimas ayu while inhibiting Rarapati.

“Check, you look bigger. Nyimas misses you too." Rarapati hugged Nyimas Ayu.

On the other hand, with his sharp gaze Ambarawa crossed legs and directed his sharp gaze at Rarapati.

“Where have Nyimas been all this time, has Nyimas faked Nyimas' death? Isn't that a crime to lie to the king!”

The pitch black haired man spoke with great emphasis, as if accusing Rarapati of crime. It is true that Ambarawa really hates her stepbrother, both from the past until now Ambarawa never changed.
