And when he has gained the trust of the king Jayakatwang, so that he submits a request to open the Terik forest, a barren village.
After everything had gone smoothly and Wijaya was given the permission to open the Terik forest. So he immediately sent a lot of Kapuk and Mahesa Pawagal to report to Wiraraja.
When they returned, the two envoys were accompanied by a son from Adipati Wiraraja who had brought a message from his father. Raden Wijaya was interested in seeing the attitude of Wiraraja's son who was firm and brave. He immediately asked her name. But before the young man answered, Raden Wijaya had already given the young man a name: Wenang, which means thread or Lawe. Then he was given the rank of Rangga. And the young man was known as Rangga Lawe,
Rangga Lawe is indeed brave, dexterous in speaking decisively in action. He has struggled desperately to help Raden Wijaya to succeed in building the Majapahit kingdom. And he is the son of Wiraraja who has made a huge contribution to him. It can almost be said that it was Wiraraja who guided, gave instructions, arranged plans and prepared movements so that Raden Wijaya succeeded in defeating Daha, expelling the Tartar army and establishing the Majapahit kingdom.
"Is it appropriate for the services of the son and father to be erased just because I think he was acting rudely in front of me..." his majesty pondered and petted "Lawe's behavior was not meant to be evil but wanted to express his disappointed, jealous and curious feelings. And I know that he has a violent, hot-tempered character, but in fact he is no less great than his other friends..."
King Kertarajasa's thoughts were still drifting in the sea of past memories. A period of struggle full of ups and downs. For a moment he almost forgot that at that time it was being attended by all the royal ministers.
"Lawe, don't be immoral in front of your majesty!" suddenly there was a rumbling sound like thunder, the echo was almost gone.
The king snapped out of his musings. He quickly raised his eyes in the direction of the voice. Ah, Demang Lembu Sora who is still in a relationship as the uncle of Rangga Lawe.
Demang who is already in old age, a senopati who is powerful, brave, honest and loyal. When he encountered difficulties during the past struggle, Wijaya always asked for advice and guidance from Lembu Sora, it was Lembu Sora who suggested that Raden Wijaya ask for help from Adipati Wiraraja in Madura. On the way to Madura, Wijaya's group spent the night in the middle of a rice field. Wijaya and Tribuana's daughter were very tired but because they were in the middle of a rice field, they couldn't rest. Simultaneously, Lembu Sora lay on his back and invited Raden Wijaya and Tribuana's daughter to sit on his stomach....
Now the loyal kadehan has been appointed as Demang with the peerage Rakryan. A high position. Free to go in and out of the palace and very closely related to the king.
Lembu Sora's rebuke to Rangga Lawe, who was still tied to his nephew, stunned the king. It became clear how loyal the Demang's people were to the king.
Criticizing a figure like Rangga Lawe, is not something to be exercised. Rangga Lawe is a duke with the rank of Minister of Amancanagara. A brave senopati and son of Adipati Wiraraja who the king promised would be given half of the kingdom's land. Slapping Rangga Lawe, was more dangerous than plucking the mustache of a wild tiger.
For a moment, his majesty's impression was awakened. He did not want a rift to arise between the kadehannya. Only because of the appointment of Nambi. He still needs strength. Rangga Lawe to maintain the security of the northern coastal area. From the ports of Tuban and Dataran, formerly the Tartar army landed and attacked king Kertanagara of Singasari because he had insulted the envoy of the Tartar emperor. But at that time Singasari had been defeated by Daha. So with a clever trick, Raden Wijaya was able to trick Ike Mi'tse, the commander of the Tartars, into allying himself against Daha. After Daha was destroyed, suddenly Raden Wijaya attacked the Tartar soldiers so many died. He ran on board two and sailed back to his country. Because of the defeat, the commander Ike Mi'tse was executed by the king of Tartar.
King Kertarajasa did not forget that incident in the least. Even though it has been going on for several years, that does not mean that there is no possibility that the king of Tartar will also send troops to punish him. And if that possibility occurs, of course they will land on the coast of Tuban or Dataran. Thus it is clear how important Tuban and Dataran are for the safety of the Majapahit kingdom. Only a figure like Rangga Lawelah would be the most appropriate to guard such an important defense post. His Majesty took it to heart.
"Never mind, Rakryan Sora" exclaimed his king for a moment realizing that the time had come for him to speak to overcome the heated atmosphere "of course you are familiar with a saying called widjna. That is so that we don't leave wisdom, full of wisdom in facing difficulties and crises no matter how serious . Courage and violence overflowing with indulgence, in the end will surely be annihilated by the power of great wisdom. Governing must be with a just and nurturing policy. Not with violence that is despotic and oppressive! "
Lembu Sora was stunned. He was really stunned to hear the king's words. It turned out that King Kertarajasa was still as good as Raden Wijaya before. Not a high position, dazzling view of his life. Power does not fertilize the nature of insolence and self-esteem. He was truly a king who was not shaken by his rank, not fragile by power.
Oxen, Sora blushed apologetically.
"Lawe" instead of reprimanding the king addressed to the Duke of Tuban "do you still know yourself?"
Rangga Lawe was touched when he heard the king's words to Lembu Sora. Secretly he was ashamed and regretful "Servant is still Lawe, your majesty's gift is always ready to offer body and soul to my lord."
King Kertarajasa's eyes shone with passion
"That's right, Lawe, you are indeed my favorite kadehan. Past and present. Bhayangkara of the Majapahit kingdom which is as solid as the walls of the palace temples. But I don't think you have forgotten who Lembu Sora, Nambi, Timpar, the blue elephant and the others are, right?"
