The Fighter
Chapter 347 The Desire to Be Reasonable
King Adhayaksa was surprised, the man turned to the serious face of Bhadra Arsyanendra. Many question marks were drawn on his face, seeing the many requests from the boy. Bhadra Arsyanendra smiled, then..
"Uncle.., the current kingdom has some lacunae in the royal maiden system. Bhadra wants uncle to replace him immediately, but for this time Bhadra wants to include someone to fill the position uncle. Bhadra hoped the uncle could agree to it.." suddenly the last words spoken by the little boy again startled King Adhyaksa's heart.
"You mean.., you don't trust this uncle of yours anymore Bhadra.. Don't you think that what you're facing this time is a kingdom, not a family household. I think it would be too dangerous if we misjudged Bhadra's decision.. Think again..!" a look of anger appeared on King Adhyaksa's face. But Bhadra Arsyanendra just smiled looking at him..
Just as the man was silent not speaking, the two of them were deep in their thoughts. Later then..
"Raden Bhadra.., actually what underlies having thoughts like this. Do you want to destroy the kingdom of Logandheng, a kingdom that your father built and raised all this time?" again King Adhyaksa asked Bhadra Arsyanendra.
"Uncle Adhyaksa.., let us not be too quick to judge something only from the outer corner. Not that uncle has also been influenced by uncle Patih Wirosobo, so many make decisions without seeing what happens directly in the community. Until Senopati Wiroyudho, Patih Wirosobo's eldest son always chased me and almost killed me, wasn't that a big mistake uncle?" Bhadra Arsyanendra recounts the last events in the kingdom.
"Bhadra hope uncle, none of that will happen again in this Logandheng kingdom." the boy continued.
The face of King Adhyaksa grew grim, the boy's words were indeed reminiscent of the chaos, which even today still occurs in the kingdom.
"Alright Raden Bhadra.., it's good that uncle listen to your proposal this time. Uncle does not want to be the one who should be responsible and fully blamed for the events in this kingdom. Who exactly is the person you proposed to be in this position..?" after a while, King Adhyaksa was finally able to accept the proposal of his nephew. Although in the heart of the man, it was not entirely certain yet.
"Kakangmas Chakra Ashanka uncle., son of uncle Wisanggeni from the college of Mount Jambu. Bhadra wanted to propose Ashan's brother to temporarily occupy the position of Patih's uncle Logandheng Kingdom, only that made Bhadra feel calm." the words the little boy spoke were like slapping at the grown man.
The look in King Adhyaksa's eyes widened again, trying not to believe the thing that had just sounded in his ears. To calm the feeling, the man took a drink then drank a few sips.
"What stupid thing goes through your mind Raden Bhadra?? Is it that easy you propose a name, as long as you put it. Uncle hope, you change your bad thoughts.., think and act as an adult man. You are the future of this kingdom of Raden.." in a slightly high tone, Raden Adhyaksa shouted.
Hearing the cry of king Adhyaksa who reached outside the meeting place, Bhadra Arsya's bodyguard Nendra burst into the room. Bhadra Arsyanendra raised her hand up, signaling that nothing dangerous happened in the room,
"Uncle Adhyaksa.., the last journey has shaped Bhadra into a complete male uncle. Various considerations Bhadra had already thought of, and the outcome of that thought was already the best decision. Only that uncle requests Bhadra.., for the people who are currently many in the royal neighborhood. Sorry uncle, Bhadra only saw them as nothing more than a sycophant. They sell their words to others, but want something to make themselves comfortable." Bhadra Arsyanendra continues.
"Give uncle time to think of my nephew. Uncle will talk about your wishes to all the elders in this kingdom. This should be an important thought, not just the name out of you, uncle then agreed to it." moments later, King Adhyaksa issued a word.
"Did the young man you were referring to know that already..?" suddenly King Adhyaksa asked a probing question.
"Not uncle, Bhadra has never mentioned and discussed this with Ashan's brother. This thought flashed for a moment Bhadra made her way to this room. Despite being so young, we cannot underestimate the power, maturity of thought from Kang Ashan. That was one of the considerations of the young man's uncle. The power in the Jambu Mountain college, we can't take it down either.." Bhadra Arsyanendra answered King Adhyaksa's question.
*************
Bhadra Arsyanendra smiled at the reaction that Chakra Ashanka showed, as the boy told his thoughts to Wisanggeni and Rengganis' sons.
"Shut your mouth, boy, instead of me disrespecting you as crown prince. But your thinking this time has gone too far, and beyond my mind." in a slightly high tone, Chakta Ashanka refused Bhadra Arsyanendra's request to occupy a position in the kingdom of Logandheng.
"Kakang Ashan.., help Bhadra kakangmas. Only the people in Gunung Jambu college, who can understand and sincerely help me at this time kakang. Bhadra did not want, the kingdom built by his father, destroyed because of the greed and greed of the people here. They were just being nice, and always trying to get close because of their wishes, not because of their sincerity." Bhadra Arsyanendra continues to plead.
"At this time, I will return to the Mount Jambu college. Being in this place, it's just gonna drive me crazy, thinking about your crazy idea. At least my family does not have the blood of this kingdom, even if from the kingdom of Laksa asked me, I will also reject Raden.." Chakra Ashanka threatens to return to college.
Hearing the anger that Chakra Ashanka showed, the boy drew closer to the young boy. Unexpectedly, the boy dropped his knees in front of Wisanggeni's son. Chakra Ashanka was surprised, then the youngster shifted his body to the side.
"Read Raden.., don't make slanders in this place..!" Chakra Ashanka shouted with a look of anger.,
"I will continue to do this, for Brother Ashan to consider my decision. Bhadra already has no one in this kingdom, only the Ashan kang and the college people still see and treat me sincerely." Bhadra Arsyanendra continues to plead.
Unwilling to cause misunderstanding of Bhadra Arsyanendra's childish attitude, Chakra Ashanka finally decided to give up, and finally, Chakra Ashanka decided to give up,
"Well raden.my answer will depend on the way Rengganis' mother looks. I had to go home to the Gunung Jambu school immediately, and asked my mother how I would make the decision." said Chakra Ashanka lirih.
