All of the courtiers gathered at the place where the usual hanging was carried out, they had to watch the punishment that would be given to Neneng, as a warning that anyone who disobeyed would get the appropriate punishment.
Neneng's hands were tied like criminals, his eyes were blank, he did not expect that his way of life would be like this, the shadow of his Mother and Father was ringing in his head, maybe it's time to get together with them.
Now he also remembered to his sister, Indra, how now his fate without him on his side.
His tears flowed unstoppable right, his mouth looks kamit kamat ask for protection to the almighty, now he can only surrender to the stroke of fate that befell him.
"Watch by all of you!this is the result of the defiance of the rules in this kingdom! with this incident I hope it will be a lesson for all of you and will never dare to break the rules or orders of the kingdom!"Shouted the Grand Queen Mother giving her speech before Neneng was right in hanging law.
All the inhabitants of the Palace witnessed the incident, including the Princes and concubines as well as the royal dignitaries, this incident was so attention-grabbing because the Queen Mother considered giving punishment without trial to Neneng first and it means that something extraordinary has happened that was done by a courtier so that it reached the law hang like that.
Prince Gunta seemed to cry for Neneng, even though their togetherness was short but felt so meaningful.
Shortly after the Queen Mother was satisfied to deliver her speech, she also gave a warning to the royal guard who was in charge of executing Neneng.
"Is there a last word to say!?"Ask the guard.
Neneng shook his head, no longer wanting him to put high hopes on anyone, even people who have high power can not help him now.
"Alright, one ,two,ti,,,"
"Wait, Your Majesty rescinded his order, here's the annulment letter signed directly by the King! "Shouted the Grand Prince fancied while showing a document cancellation of the true punishment has been filled with the signature of the King himself.
The bodyguard immediately stopped the execution process and read the King's command stating that Neneng was innocent and his sentence was canceled.
Neneng who had barely breathed because his chest felt so tight since the sentence was handed down to him now felt very relieved, as if being flown over nirvana half conscious no, no,faintly faintly visible someone untied her quickly then hugged her tightly, a distinctive scent that she liked, apparently without much waiting for her again, the crown prince took Neneng down from the execution ground and carried her to his palace.
Neneng's body was already helpless due to his shock.
Slowly the crown prince laid her on his bed,he told Grand Prince Satria who also followed him because of worry about Neneng's condition to take drinking water and warm water to wipe Neneng's face filled with cold sweat
"He must have been so scared!"His mind while gently stroking Neneng's hair.
"Crown prince, let Ayu be treated by a medical expert, Servant will take her to the treatment hall!"Said Pakde Karwo who was no less shocked by what would happen to Neneng earlier,he felt guilty because what happened to Neneng until now was because he brought her into the palace.
"No, I'll take care of her myself!"Said the crown prince while looking at Neneng's face with sadness, he stopped clasping Neneng's hand which he had not let go.
"Just prepare food and drink to restore his health condition, when he wakes up he will definitely feel hungry!"The crown prince's order to pakde Karwo.
"Your Majesty!"Answer her while retreating.
Neneng was still not awake as well from his fainting, his face looked pale and cold sweat was still seen wetting the hair child on his face.
The crown prince rubbed the sweat on Neneng's face with his hands, slowly his face down preparing to kiss the tiny lips of Neneng.
But suddenly Neneng opened his eyes and looked at the face of the crown prince who was so close to his face.
"Don't kiss me Your Majesty, this is me and not Liodra!"
Neneng half-whispered, Yes closed his mouth using his hands, as if telling the crown prince, that he did not want the crown prince to consider him as his dead fiancee.
But the crown prince shook Neneng's hand while saying,
"now that I've only seen you in my eyes, it's like I can't live without you, Ayu!You are the rainbow that comes after the rain subsides, beautiful and colorful! Cups!"
The crown prince actually stuck his mouth in Neneng's mouth without his consent.
"You're the water you mined,,,"
suddenly Grand Prince Satria came while carrying the water requested by his brother, but he immediately stopped his steps when he saw the scenery that cut his heart, He was very jealous when he saw the closeness of his brother with Neneng,moreover, the crown prince was no longer ashamed of their affection, his behavior became clumsy, but he still stood there.
"Put it here, Tria!"Prattling
Grand Prince Satria gave Neneng a drink, but was soon taken over by the crown prince.
"You can go now!let me take care of it, call my personal doctor here!"His orders to his sister who looks confused mangu.
"Good Kanda!"The Grand Prince spoke as if he had to.
With painstaking care of the crown prince Neneng, wipe his face and hands with warm water, feed and continue to accompany while waiting for his condition to really recover.
Before long came the Crown Prince's special personal doctor will only handle it if he is sick.
"You are sick, Your Majesty?!which part hurts her?!"Ask the doctor while examining the Crown Prince.
"Not me! check him and give him the best medicine so that his condition quickly recovers!"The crown prince said as he turned towards Neneng who was lying on his bed.
The doctor looked surprised to see a woman dressed as a courtier lying on the Prince's bed, actually it was something that no one should do.
"Not even Your Majesty! Servants cannot do that, Servants must only touch you and it is inappropriate for a courtier to lie on your bed!If the Queen Mother knew, she would definitely get a severe punishment!"He said while bowing politely.
"Just do my command!or you'll punish me severely!Who did you work for before?! for me or for the Queen Mother?!Threaten the crown prince while he is about to take his sword.
"Not even Your Majesty! all right I'll do, and I won't leak it to anyone!"The doctor knelt so frightened, the harsh nature of the Crown Prince did not make anyone unable to dwell when he ordered something.
"Good! you should have said so from the beginning!"Said the crown prince while keeping back his sword.
...****************...
"What really happened to the King, why did he suddenly overturn the punishment of the courtier!? quickly find out the cause! something important must have happened!"
Shouted the Queen Mother angry after the punishment order against Neneng was canceled directly by the king's own majesty.
Soon his men sought information about the cause of the cancellation to be reported to the Queen Mother.
Then what exactly made the King change his mind?!
Shortly after Neneng was dragged to the gallows by the royal guards, Pakde Karwo ran towards her and handed over a document proving that Neneng was the Princess of Patih Bimo Raharjo.
"Wait for Your Majesty!look at this! the courtier was indeed the daughter of Kangmas Patih Bimo Raharjo, see Your Majesty!"said Pakde Karwo while half running towards him.
The King is seen reading the document carefully.
"This is real, Karwo?!"The king seemed to want to be more sure.
"I dare guarantee his legitimacy Your Majesty!"Pakde Karwo replied with confidence.
"Why did you just say it now!?"
"This information is only up to this day Your Majesty, Hamba apologize!"
"Immediately cancel the hanging of Abd al-Dalem, whose name is Ayu, O Lord!!! I almost killed my best friend's daughter! after that, he treated her with special, special,give her luxurious clothes and a place in the palace of the princes before I announce her appointment as Princess of this kingdom and I will give her an official title,after his condition is really good!"
"Will I do as you command Your Majesty!"Said Pakde Karwo, at that time immediately he informed the good news to the Crown Prince and Grand Prince Satria who immediately brought Neneng down from the gallows.
......................
"Bring the Princess of Kangmas Bimo to me, chief Abdi Dalem!I want to properly greet her and apologize for the rude actions my family members have been taking towards her!"Said Paduka Raja to Pakde Karwo, after a few days Neneng in care.
"Please forgive Your Majesty! The crown prince held her in his palace, even servants are forbidden to meet her!"Pakde Karwo.
