This article examines Panji narrative elements in Hikayat Susunan Kuning dalam Negeri Gagelang (HSK) and its transformation within classical Malay literary ideology. Using a qualitative philological and literary analysis, this study analyzes the HSK manuscript (Or. 1755, Leiden University Library) through close reading of characterization, setting, atmosphere, and narrative motifs. The Panji tradition is treated as a court romance model representing noble ideals and political legitimacy. The analysis shows that HSK retains core Panji structures, court centered world, noble heroes, inter-kingdom networks, and motifs of journey, warfare, and marriage, but reorients them toward a heroic-dynastic narrative emphasizing territorial expansion, political stabilization, and state legitimacy. This finding confirms HSK as a Malayized and politicized Panji variant
