Tirta Jayakusuma: Sak Dumuk Cough Sak Nyari Bumi
Lessons For A Proud Envoy

Then there was a golden roll of cloth that looked beautiful in the right hand of the leader of the horsemen.

Looking at the badge and the Newsletter which is a letter indicating that the holder is the same as Sinuhun Prabu Hanyokrokusumo himself, then even though there is a disharmony between Mataram and Pati, inevitably Ki Rangga Jagadenta was immediately bent his legs were also followed by some soldiers who had behaved as well as Ki Rangga Jagadenta who did know subo sito (there is courtesy) appreciate the person who holds this newsletter.

People who do not appreciate the bearer of goods trust from the sinuhun prabu Hanyakrawati, Sultan Agung Mataram can be considered a rebel.

However, in this case, there is a tension that has culminated in the relationship between Mataram and Pati Pesantenan so that Ki Rangga Jagadenta was not too respectful blindly.

He only did this as a form of homage to the letter these horsemen had brought.

"We trust you!" Ki Rangga Jagadenta.

"You can continue your journey to the rice order but with an escort from our guards" said Ki Rangga Jagadenta.

It is intended that these horsemen do not get obstacles on the next trip and also to keep watch that these horsemen do not do activities as a trick.

The leader of the horsemen seemed to frown, but his position now was not in his condition as a Mataram soldier who fully ruled over his territory.

He was in Pati pesantenan who did not submit to Mataram. And it was known and realized by him.

"Alright if Ki Rangga wants that," said the leader of Mataram's envoy what can be done.

He realized he could not resist what this Kademangan Pucakwangi warrior leader said.

"Lowo Ijo, White Bango! Ki Lurah Suro's! Take them to the Duchy of Pati!" Ki Rangga Jagadenta.

"Good Ki!_ Reply Ki Suro immediately replied to what this leader had ordered.

But not so with lowo ijo or White Bango.

They are lay people who have just got educated in the army, so they are not accustomed to being bawuh against the orders of superiors.

It was only after thinking for a while that Lowo Ijo and Bango White nodded their heads.

"Okay Ki Rangga, we accept this task!" White Bango Word.

"Ki Rangga I want to return Ki Duchy! So I'm going to join this group!" Suddenly a sweet voice came from behind Ki Rangga Jagadenta.

Ki Rangga Jagadenta then looked back then he saw Pandan Arum Putri the Tumenggung Sawungganing had been standing next to him

"I want to accompany them to the Duchy of ki Rangga." Pandan Arum said.

"However, I am very familiar with the streets in the Duchy of Pati so that they will have no trouble finding the Grand Duchy of Pati." Continue this girl.

Ki Rangga Jagadenta looks at this girl with a smile.

This girl is the daughter of her leader who has been entrusted to her to help improve the abilities of the bodyguards of Kademangan Pucakwangi and also provide a very valuable assistance to this Kademangan so that in Rangga has been very liked and considered this girl like Ki Sawunggaling himself.

But sometimes in her youth this girl is like a lively white antelope that has attracted the attention of the hundreds of academic guards.

This girl was like a moon shining in the darkness of the night whose light had attracted the attention of the youth to always be near her.

"Oh, fat Pandan Arum.. Of course, it doesn't matter" said Ki Rangga who also considers this girl like his own daughter by calling her a fat..

"Oh Thank you Ki Rangga" said Padan Arum.

"With Pandan Arum I think it is enough as a guide and also a bodyguard for Mataram's emissaries, let alone Lowo Ijo." Said Ki Suro.

"I'm sure their journey will be safe until the Pati Duchy pendopo and meet directly with the officials in Pati," continued Ki Suro.

Ki Rangga seemed to nod his head and he had agreed to what was conveyed by Ki Lurah Suro.

But suddenly Loka Jaya has said.

"If Ki Suro doesn't leave, let me replace him!"

"Anyway these arrogant Mataram envoys can be dangerous for Pati! And it takes a very strong escort to keep them."

"I guess Lowo Idjo, and white Bango won't be able to take good care of them if they do anything!" Loka Jaya.

Ki Rangga Jagadenta then replied.

"No Loka Jaya! I guess Lowo Ijo's whereabouts are enough to keep them Loka Jaya. And Gemduk Pandan Arum can be a good clue for them.

"While your strength is still needed in this place to train the young men of Kademangan Pucakwangi," said Ki Rangga Jagadenta firmly.

Ki Rangga knows, that Loka Jaya has more attention to the daughter of Ki Tumenggung Sawungginging, however, this strengthening still requires energy from the Loka Jaya to strengthen the existence of the Kademangan guards who are still raw in the military science.

Loka Jaya seemed unhappy with Ki Rangga's decision, but he could not express his objections.

He could not say that he wanted to be near the pandan Arum.

"Alright Ki Rangga," said Lokajaya who had then left the place just like that because of this disappointment.

The trip must be done immediately so that they can not be too long in this place.

It has been conveyed by these horsemen to Ki Rangga Jagadenta.

And a little while later the messengers from Mataram had returned on their horses.

Lowo Ijo, white Bango and Pandan Arum have also been preparing on their horses as well.

Lowo Ijo looked a bit clumsy and hesitant to be on his horse.

He has never ridden a horse!

Yes during his life Tirta Jaya Kusuma had never ridden a horse so he became confused when he was on his horse.

And when they had ransacked their horses.

"Heh, Brother Lowo Ijo! Have you never ridden a horse before!?" Pandan Arum exclaimed as he later realized that Lowo Ijo was not able to control his horse well.

Sometimes Lowo Ijo has accidentally made his horse fast and sometimes Lowo Ijo has made his horse suddenly stop suddenly.

It seemed that his horse had been confused by the actions of Lowo Ijo who could not master the reins of his horse.

With a bit of embarrassment Tirta Jaya Kusuma had to admit that he had never rode a horse at all before and he was unable to master this horse.
