Powerful Farmer
Pavilion owner

The maid took them into a room

VIP who had been booked by Andi before, the waiter allowed them to sit on a thin pillow facing a short table, apparently it was a place that if in Indonesia called lesehan.

While the waiter recorded the food menu ordered, Joan was shocked and happy because in addition to the food that was common in the Sky Empire country. Joan also found a familiar food menu before her eyes.

Asem vegetables, botok, salted fish, nasi uduk, tofu, tempeh and rujak cingur, there are sinom drinks, rice kencur even wedang uwuh, and so on, also other foods that the names of the food menu is not foreign to his ears, just do not know how it tastes.

The female servant said that the mistress of the owner of the Nusantara pavilion would meet them after they finished their meal.

As the meal was served, Joan tasted it first one by one before eating it and when she discovered that it did not taste too far with the taste she remembered in her first lifetime, Joan was enthusiastic. Andi, who was trying the food for the first time, looked quite curious but seemed enthusiastic enough to eat all the food so that there was nothing left.

The waiter came to clean the table, Joan ordered a warm drink of ginger for the two of them. The servant also placed one glass of wedang uwuh for the mistress of the pavilion owner.

The pavilion owner's mistress came with a personal servant. The mistress was quite old, the remnants of beauty were clearly visible on her face that had begun to be filled with wrinkles, her face did look beautiful.

"Good afternoon, madam".

Andi and Joan stood up from her seat in honor of the pavilion master's mistress. The mistress of the pavilion owner was deeply moved to see the courtesy of the young people before her".

"Good day, please sit back ".

The pavilion-owner's mistress was seated on a small stool carried by her personal attendants, Andi and Joan sitting back on her pillow.

"Include my name Po Ni Yem, I am the owner of this Nusantara pavilion, sorry who these two children are".

"I Andi and this young lady named Joan, you came to see the madam because there was something we wanted to ask".

"Oh young master Andi and this sweet lady named Joan. Nice name, nice name, so what do you want to ask but I'm sorry, although I'm old but not all the things I know so I'll just answer what I know".

"Ah madam is so very humble, of course we asked about what the mistress knows".

Said Joan hearing Mrs Po's statement.

They chatted all afternoon, madam Po answered kindly all Joan's curiosity, it turned out that Po's mistress was the fifth generation of Po Ni Djan's descendants.

Their families wandered into the Sky Empire country by sea, sailing for months. Their families that were currently gone numbered twenty people, only five people left when they reached the Sky empire.

They sailed by simple navigation using the instructions of the stars and compass that their father had obtained from the corn-haired stranger he had met on a journey.

Joan guessed that the corn-haired man must have come from Europe in the world she used to know.

People from the same country are certainly very happy when meeting with their countrymen so that he became more friendly to Joan.

Mrs Po Ni Yem sends greetings to Mr. Joko, also souvenirs of Uli crackers and renginang. Andi was amazed to find out that the renginang came from dried and dried rice. Joan gives a bag of mystical rice to Po Ni Yem's mistress and promises to send it back if Po Ni Yem's mistress likes it.

Madam Po Ni Yem knew that mystic rice was rice that was usually only consumed by the palaces and elders of the big sects. So he was very happy to receive that mystical rice, he was more surprised because the Tile village was the only mystic rice producer in the Sky Empire.

Lady Po leads Andi and Joan to the front door, they hug for a moment and Lady Po tells them to come back later, the door of her house will always be open for Joan.

Joan immediately felt such familiarity with her own family. Joan promised to try to visit Po Ni Yem's mistress if she came back to the capital.

Andi escorted Joan back to the house of the concubine Ouyang, after which she returned to the palace to finish her affairs, Andi asked Mo and Mo Yan to prepare for their departure back to the village of Genteng.

The Emperor invited Joan to come to the palace the next day in order to formally confer the title of Grand Princess in the court at the Palace, also a welcoming party as well as a farewell for Joan because Joan will return to the village of Genteng.

In the event were present all officials at the level of ministers, prime ministers and also teachers of the nation. The teacher of this nation was the elder brother of the previous Emperor.

After the eunuch who served the Emperor read the decree conferring the title of Grand Princess to Joan who knelt before the Emperor turned his back on the court officials who stood behind Joan.

The eunuch gave the decree to Joan who received it with both hands and said aloud.

"Thank you to the Emperor for his grace, this lowly servant received it with joy. May the Emperor live long ".

All the officials immediately spoke of Joan.

"May the Emperor live a long life".

After that Joan rose to her feet and returned to her seat, the awarding of the title was greeted with joy by the family of Ouyang's concubines.

Some are happy, some are angry. It was the first prince to be angry at Joan for ruining his grand plan. He did not expect that his confidant, general Loe Som Bong would defect and leave the capital to become commander of a naval military base on the Kersik coast.

More general Wong Nge Dan who is famous for being arrogant and high-minded also volunteered to become governor general in the coastal region of Kersik. Doesn't that mean they automatically provide additional protection for Genteng village.

For the first prince, the title of Grand Princess and the title of Duke of the Special Autonomous Region were also too exaggerated if it was used as a tribute to Joan and her father.

Only the first prince could not do anything because he had been in the spotlight because it was proven to order the black Shadow and Sky rooftop assassin organization to kill the third prince. Although the Emperor did not say anything about this but he knew, he could not provoke the anger of his father anymore.

That was why he did not dare to go any further
