This morning Patih Rangga Dewa was practicing kanuragan science in the backyard of the palace. He looked serious while he was training, thus attracting the attention of prince Birawa Fusena. He carefully watched all the movements made by Patih Rangga Dewa. Maybe he could learn the style, but Patih Rangga Dewa realized the presence of Prince Birawa Fusena, he set his pure mood and approached his nephew.
"Mr prince, good morning."
"Good morning uncle Patih."
"It's not usual for the prince to be here? What's the matter, prince nanda? Hm?."
"Just the usual morning walk uncle." The little smile he showed. "Who would have thought to have met with uncle patih here, but his movements were amazingly great uncle." There was awe that he showed at that time.
"Oh so." Just like that was the response?.
"Is uncle patih off duty today? So that patih's uncle is still here."
"Uncle wants to stretch the muscles first." He said as he stretched his body in small movements. "Warm up before doing a task."
"But I rarely see uncle patih around the King's town, is uncle a duty in the village?." From the look of his face it was very clear how curiosity enveloped his heart.
"Uncle is everywhere." Answer very casually. "Walk silently, and catch the prey."
"So so? Is the prey female?." Without thinking much, he said that.
"What does the prince mean to say that?."
"Because of the bad news I heard from the palace guards, as well as some scattered news uncle Patih prefers to hunt women."
"Gum." Patih Rangga Dewa seemed to think for a moment. "Bad news is always about uncle." It seems he is breathing slowly. "That's because they want your uncle punished by your father."
"But why did they spread such bad news about uncle?." Curiosity grew bigger in his heart at that moment. "What if the news affects uncle patih's reputation?."
"That's the name of nanda prince's liver disease." He patted his nephew slowly. "It can't be owned by anyone at all."
"Healthy liver?." Spontaneously he repeated the sentence. "Why does uncle say liver disease? Is there such a disease?." His face looks very funny when he asks about new things he knows.
"The person who has the liver disease, he always looks for the voids of the person." He tried to explain it. "Don't like it if he's proven guilty, but doesn't fix himself." Further. "In addition, he is not happy to see others feel superior to him, it's one example of liver disease that always eats away at a weak heart."
"So that's uncle Patih's liver disease?." Still confused by that explanation.
"Yes, that's very true nanda prince." Answer with a small smile. "The prince's mother should stay away from that liver disease."
"Why is that? Is heart disease really that dangerous?." Prince Birawa Fusena is still confused.
"Because liver disease is not good nanda prince." He invited his nephew to sit down. "Especially we will always be envious of what others have." Slowly he tried to explain it. "For a long time his heart will blacken, and he will no longer listen to kindness, but it will affect his mentality, such as being angry, or irritable."
"So that's the reason uncle never gets angry? Even though someone else is spreading bad news about uncle?." He thought about his uncle's very relaxed attitude
"Yes, because if we respond to him, it's the same with him." He even chuckles small. "Because liver disease is not just from such a person." Further. "We can also get liver disease if we respond to bad things, and become an angry person." His eyes clearly saw how his nephew was thinking about his words.
"What's that for?." Prince Birawa Fusena stared fixedly at his uncle. "Although uncle's age is old but looks youthful? Because uncle didn't get that liver disease? But why isn't uncle married yet?."
"Godd you?!." Patih Rangga Dewa was shocked to hear that. "The prince's widow doesn't like her talk, it hurts a lot." His heart was like a needle. "Uncle just haven't met a mate, although many teach uncle." It felt crowded to also listen to what his nephew said. "But the uncle only wants the one who is really serious about loving the uncle, not just because he looks at the physical."
"If I don't understand uncle at all." His face looks so innocent. "Heheh! I'm sorry, uncle?." Continue while laughing giggling.
"Yes already." Patih Rangga Dewa just resigned. "Then uncle will do uncle's duty." He had to suppress that painful feeling. "Remember the prince? Don't nanda prince have liver disease, envy or envy in others, because liver disease is difficult to treat."
"All right, uncle Patih." He nodded in understanding. "Be careful while on duty."
"Uncle pamit first, sampurasun."
"Rampes."
Patih Rangga Dewa left Prince Birawa Fusena who was thinking about what Patih Rangga Dewa said about liver disease.
"I hate dinda arya so much for all this time." Suddenly he felt what his uncle was saying. "Also my other sisters." He breathed for a moment. "Did I have liver disease?." His uncle's words really felt. "I said uncle liver disease is not good, have I not been good all this time?." In his heart wondered how he had behaved to Prince Arya Fusena all this time?. "Have I been bad all this time?." In his heart he thought of it all.

Meanwhile, Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena was currently with some of his subordinates who were about to report what they saw about Patih Rangga Dewa.
"Please gusti prabu." He gave respect. "We all know that the patih rangga deity is often disguised, because the crimes he committed are unknown to anyone." With great certainty he said that.
"Then what crime are you going to report to me about dinda patih?." Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena pretends not to know.
"There are some very fatal crimes Gusti Prabu." The answer.
"Good." The Prabu stared intently. "If the report you gave me doesn't match what I received from the password? Then I will punish you." Threaten the Prabu. "Because the report you gave can defame the heathen, and you will get the most cruel punishment from me."
The deg!.
For a moment they fell silent, as they really had to consider what they were going to report to Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena. They looked at each other, moreover there was doubt when they wanted to report what the Patih Rangga Dewa had done outside the palace.
"As dinda patih said." The Prabu noticed their slightly suspicious behavior. "Quickly or later they will report what they see about the dinda patih". In the heart of Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena watched them with a gaze full of suspicion. "Those who always followed the patih dinda secretly, but I have also assigned spies to follow whatever Patih did while serving outside the palace." In the heart of the Prabu is very vigilant. "Tell me, why are you guys quiet? Do you have any doubts about the report you are about to give me?." There was a feeling of annoyance tucked in the heart of the Prabu at that time.
...***...
Queen Dewi Saraswati at that time met her son Prince Arya Fusena in the library, but who would have guessed if he saw his son was serious in studying the science of state.
"Wost Queen."
The four maids who always followed his son saluted.
"You are very considerate and very close to my son prince arya fusena, I feel very envious of your closeness." Queen Dewi Saraswati was seen sighing. "It feels like my son was only born to me, but not close to me."
The four maids were very pleased with what Queen Dewi Saraswati had said.
"Please forgive Gusti Queen, we do not mean to give such an impression there is Gusti Queen."
"Truely Gusti Ratu, please forgive me if what we have done has made Gusti Ratu unpleasant as the beloved mother of Gusti prince arya fusena."
"We'll be the protectors for Gusti Prince arya fusena, that's all Gusti."
The Queen Goddess Saraswati chuckled softly listening to the remark, thus making them look confused.
"Gusti Queen goddess Saraswati laughs?." At least that was in the hearts of the four maids.
"I thank the four of you for taking care of my son." It is very clear how the sweet smile shown by Queen Dewi Saraswati. "I'm so grateful that you guys love my son so much, sometimes I just try to protect him from a distance." Suddenly his face this time looked very sad. "I beg of you to keep protecting my son, I somehow feel that there are many people who want to remove him from this palace because he has a face very similar to his father."
"Of course we will protect Gusti prince arya fusena with all our hearts Gusti Queen." They pay respect back.
...****...
At the training ground.
"What's up kanda? Why does Kanda look so moody like that? Did something happen?." Princess Rara Wulan looks very anxious on her brother.
"It's okay, I'm just thinking about something." He answered without looking at his sister.
"What a weird thing, you don't sound so excited, do you have a problem?." He sat with his brother, he was very worried. "If you have a problem? Why not tell me? Maybe I can help you finish it."
"I'm fine, it's just that I'm not excited."
"really?."
"Yes, right." He answered while looking at his sister. "So stop asking so many questions."
"Ouch!." Princess Rara Wulan grimaced in pain due to her brother's dysentery.
"If you shower me with so many questions? My mood's getting worse, so you don't ask too many questions, okay?."
"Well, I won't ask." Princess Rara looked very upset.
"I was also confused by myself after listening to Patih's uncle's words regarding liver disease." In his heart he felt very uneasy about it all.
...****...
Inside the Palace.
"Please gusti prabu." He gave respect. "A few days ago, there was a report coming in from us that they saw Patih's wrestling entry into the entertainment house." Finally he said the purpose of the report. "Say he slept with some women there, and they complained that they wanted to hold him to account."
"It's so weird, they work at home the night? But why even hold my sister accountable? Isn't that so weird? It doesn't make any sense at all." The Prabu seemed to be thinking hard. "Have not many men touched them? But why would you want to hold my sister accountable? You guys are so weird."
"But gusti prabu."
"But what?!." Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena looks very angry. "Say it clearly!."
"But according to the owner of the house, they never served Gusti until sleep, just accompany the conversation alone." Answer with a wave. "But that night they were forced by Gusti Patih to accompany him to sleep, even threatened not to tell anyone."
"If my brother threatens me? Ls it? You spied on my sister and reported her actions to me for what you saw?." The Prabu gave such questions to them.
"It is true Gusti Prabu, moreover we do not have the heart to see those who are persecuted like that, later their children are born without a father, will be very unfortunate their lives Gusti." It was very clear how a sympathetic face looked at him.
"Then bring them here, I'll ask them myself." The Prabu couldn't bear to hear it.
"We've tried it Gusti Prabu, it's just-."
"What only? Don't make me guess what I don't know!."
"Just they shut themselves up at home, they don't want to meet anyone else, either." With a clear face he answered. "There was a very deep feeling of trauma after Gusti's incident."
"All right." The Prabu gave up for a moment. "If my sister had done a bad deed?. Then I will make him accountable for what he has done." Highlight the eyes of the Prabu look very sharp staring at them all. "She's going to serve a banishment sentence with the woman she's pregnant with." His heart is a little bit troubled. "But if you give me the wrong information? Then I will punish you severely, perhaps hanged to death."
The deg!.
Of course they were very surprised to hear that. The punishment of hanging to death?. It was a severe punishment, and would not be repeated several times, once served the punishment it would instantly move nature while saying goodbye to this mortal world.
"If no one wants you guys to arrive again? get out of here, I have a tough job after this." The Prabu kicked them all out.
"Sandika gusti prabu."
After that they left the place, because Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena gave the code to them to leave the room. He sighed, trying to calm himself.
"Kanda Prabu don't have to be that angry." There was the voice of Patih Rangga Dewa greeting. "And just give me a letter to protect the women who have been tainted by the glass of the men and his men." From his voice it was very clear that he was holding a very strong anger. "I'm sure they'll wipe out the women and make a will as if they killed themselves out of fear of threats from me. Prabu kanda."
"Then immediately do dinda patih." Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena is also holding back his anger. "The glass of those people in front of me! I will cut off his neck that always bestows his guilt on you!." Eve around feels hot because of the anger of the Prabu.
Patih Rangga Dewa came out from hiding, he faced Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena.
"This is the royal badge, you must act immediately in the heathen. Don't let that trouble trap you again."
"Sandika kanda prabu." He gave respect.
"Make sure you solve this problem, I'm fed up with them."
"Kanda Prabu take it easy, I will definitely settle this matter quickly."
"It has to!."
"Then I say goodbye, sampurasun."
"Rampes."
After taking the badge from Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena, Patih Rangga Dewa immediately left. He does not want to lose a step from those who intend evil on the small people just for their satisfaction.
"It's terrible for them." Prabu Maharaja Sura Fusena firmly clenched his hand. "How dare they commit a crime, and after that even make my brother the culprit?." Prabu's heart was filled with burning anger. "They think I'm a stupid king who'd take their report for granted? Turns out they underestimated me so much, I'll teach them a lesson later, just see if I'm angry like what." The heart of the Prabu did not accept that at all. "They really upset me, afraid of the firmness of the heathen when moving, but not afraid of me who is a King who has a higher position than the coach." In the heart of the Prabu did not accept.
NEXT.
