A grey-haired pigeon came and perched on the right shoulder of Prince Abhiseka. Wisanggeni and the two bodyguards just kept quiet, they observed how Prince Abhiseka conveyed the message to the dove. Not long after tying the small leaf spool at the dove's feet, Prince Abhiseka lifted the dove up. Slowly, with his hand Prince Abhiseka flew the dove.
"Hopefully within three days the pigeon has delivered my message to the royal uncle Senopati. If the idea is approved, in the not too distant future, people from the kingdom will visit this village." murmured Prince Abhiseka. Then the man turned his gaze to the uncles who made catapults in the village.
"But the prince.., neither should the kingdom charge us to make the catapult as the Prince wishes." for it is not as a village that is the territory of the kingdom, one of the uncles dared to convey his statement to Prince Abhiseka.
"Don't worry uncle.., besides the people from the kingdom it will bring back the catapults made by this village, teach them uncle. Once they can make it very neatly, they will be able to make it themselves in our kingdom. You don't have to think too much about it." said Prince Abhiseka softly, trying to calm them down. Wisanggeni smiled without commenting on the conversation.
"Alright if so Prince.., we will have great pleasure to train the people from the royal side. Never once did our village have the honor of being visited by the great people of the kingdom. Although the kingdom of Laksa was not the one that overshadowed the existence of our village, but we were very pleased with this honor." an uncle responded and paid homage to them.
Prince Abhiseka smiled, and the idea arose in his mind to seize this village into one of the dominions of the Laksa kingdom. But remembering the words he had just spoken with Wisanggeni, the Prince finally forgot his idea.
"Oh yes uncle.., please serve our people well. We cannot be together with uncle to meet the people from the royal side, because tonight we also have to leave this village to head to the eastern region." feeling unable to wait for the people of the kingdom, Wisanggeni delivered a statement, and was asserted by Prince Abhiseka.
"Definitely Ki Sanak.., we always treat every guest who visits our village very well. Let alone our guests this time, the people from the royal side, we will receive and welcome them." one of the uncles representing his friends responded to Wisanggeni's words.
"Well if so.. Thank you infinitely, for the hospitality of the villagers welcomed our arrival. Although we had never met before, but the treatment and response of the villagers, especially these uncles, was very good towards us. Our permission to say goodbye to uncle.." all Wisanggeni said goodbye to leave the village. A sense of kangen towards Rengganis and his son Chakra Ashanka already felt in the man's crown..
"Goodbye Prince, Ki Sanak. Thank you for your visit to our village." After, they gave permission, Wisanggeni immediately invited Prince Abhiseka to leave the village.
Without delay, the four men, with one of them holding a white cat, immediately darted away from the village. In an instant, they disappeared.

The two doves immediately flew towards the Maharani, and when they saw the bundle at the foot of the bird, the Maharani's mind was perceptive. Slowly, the Maharani untied the legs of the two birds one by one, then took the parcel and kept it.
"To my wife Maharani.." The inscription on the palm leaf accompanying the parcel, gave rise to the original answer of the parcel's shipment. Without speaking, Maharani called out to his men who were watching the training.
"What's the Empress Dowager.., how can I help you?" with a respectful attitude, his men immediately asked the Maharani.
"Take good care of these two pigeons, give the best food for both. After they had restored their power, they were released back into the wild." quickly the Maharani ruled over the men, his hand giving the men the pigeons. Without asking much, the man immediately received the two pigeons.
"Well Queen." without saying much, the man immediately took away the two doves from before the Empress.
The maharani went straight into the pendhopo leaving the courtyard. Various bad thoughts flashed in the woman's mind. Today it is indeed sixty days, Wisanggeni left the snake kingdom. And the man left at that time, bearing the requirements demanded by the elders of the serpent kingdom, under the pretext of preparing his descendants. With sadness, because of the longing for the man who married her because of the forced, only left that feeling in the heart of the Maharani.
"Why Kang Wisang did not deliver this item here himself. Did Kang Wisang fail to obtain the snake dragon essence from the mountain peak?" The Maharani is immersed in his own daydream. Suddenly the woman doubted the ability of Wisanggeni.
"But with Kang Wisang's ability, if he is able to carry out the job, I'm sure he will succeed. Has Kang Wisang not been able to accept me as a wife completely?" the Maharani thought to himself. Slowly Maharani's hand opened a package that folded very neatly. The young woman's eyes suddenly shone, looking at the small porcelain bottle before her eyes. Impatiently. The maharani unsealed the porcelain bottle cap, and the fragrant smell of the high-value pill fragrance poured out of the bottle. The fragrant aroma of the pill that came out of the porcelain bottle, not realizing the Empress had spread throughout the kingdom, and gave rise to the curiosity of the people who were in the kingdom. Instantly the doubts he had towards Wisanggeni, came out.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Wisang.., who has doubted all your efforts." very regretfully, Maharani spoke to himself.
Some people including the elders walked out of their pondhok maisng each, they were trying to figure out where the medicinal scent came from. Unknowingly, the men stopped outside the pondhok occupied by the Maharani, but all happened without the knowledge of the woman who was inside the pondhok.
