Aurora saw their little moves, but she said nothing.
She would not stop the people under her from reminding others and interacting with other people. Besides, she didn’t really want to bring Mr. Wren with her when she was facing Queen Ella.
The carriage slowly made its way to the Royal Palace and the two knights were not allowed to follow her inside.
"Miss," William called out when they were being stopped.
"Wait for here," Aurora said. "I’ll be back soon."
"Yes, Miss."
Prince Lester looked at the guards around him and frowned slightly. He didn’t have good impression of the Royal Family from other kingdoms, including the Yellow Kingdom. And looking at Aurora who went on her own, he pursed his lips.
What was the point of having a knight when they couldn’t even follow and protect their Miss or Master when they were in the most difficult position?
The rules were annoying.
Even if the rules were necessary to maintain order, but Prince Lester felt that it would have been better if the rules could be changed so that it would not continuously favor those who were at the top.
But that was impossible.
"Let’s wait here." William turned to look at Prince Lester. Even if he didn’t really trust this little prince, Aurora had given the order, so he will follow her words.
Prince Lester nodded and stood beside William.
...
At this ti, Aurora was walking in the Royal Palace. She looked at the decoration that seed to have beco even grander and her eyes flickered.
Queen Ella’s family background was quite good.
It seed that due to her helping them earn money so ti ago through the trade, Queen Ella’s family had gained a lot of money and part of it was given to Queen Ella to fund her lavish lifestyle.
But this was how a noble life is.
Even if they knew that they could spend less if they bought sothing of lesser quality, none of them would be willing to do that.
It was related to their faces.
They had to wear the best one.
Aurora moved her eyes away and stopped in front of the door.
Knock! Knock!
"Your Highness, Miss Aurora White is here."
"Bring her in."
The door opened and Aurora walked inside. At this ti, Queen Ella was sitting leisurely on a sofa with snacks in front of her. Each and ever single one of these snacks looked very delicious and luxurious.
It was the type of snacks that could only be found in the Royal Family.
Aurora moved her eyes away and then greeted Queen Ella. "Aurora White has seen Her Highness, Queen Ella."
"Aurora White," Queen Ella called out. "I heard that there wouldn’t be any other negotiations in the future?"
No negotiations?
Aurora was surprised for a mont.
"Your Highness, it’s not that there wouldn’t be any other negotiation but that the next water negation will be many years later. If its other trades, it can still be done but might not be possible if it involve the Red Kingdom."
"The Red Kingdom, huh?" Queen Ella shifted her position and took so snacks. She chuckled. "It seems that the Red Kingdom is in dire situation. Have you ever thought of helping the Red Kingdom, Aurora?"
Helping the Red Kingdom?
Aurora’s mother, Duchess Isabella, is the princess of the Red Kingdom. Even after she had married Duke White, it was impossible for her not to favor the Red Kingdom invisibly to a certain degree.
It was only through the agreent between Queen Ella and Duchess Isabella that during negotiate, she could earn more percentage for herself that Duchess Isabella was willing to give more favorable term for the Yellow Kingdom.
Even then, Queen Ella could see that it was not impossible for the Red Kingdom’s King to give so private gifts to his sister.
After all, if it could make the negotiation sided with them more, it would be better.
When Aurora took charge back then, Queen Ella really thought that Duchess Isabella was helping Aurora from the back. After all, the first negotiation had Duchess Isabella accompanying Aurora.
But later on, it was all Aurora by herself.
This made Queen Ella a bit suspicious and she felt that it might be possible for Aurora to do this by herself.
This kind of talent...
It was a bit terrifying.
When one was only a young teenager, would it be possible for them to do this kind of thing?
Queen Ella looked at the girl in front of her that didn’t seem to be that different from any other girl.
She decided to explore more about Aurora and at the sa ti, she would make sure Aurora would only side with the Yellow Kingdom.
Aurora knew what Queen Ella wanted to hear. She could only show a smile on her face and replied, "Your Highness, I’m part of the Yellow Kingdom."
As long as she is still part of the Yellow Kingdom, she would not do anything that hard the general interest of the Yellow Kingdom.
Of course, Aurora would not tell the details to Queen Ella.
"I hope you can stay true to your words, Aurora White," Queen Ella said unhurriedly and then waved her hands. "I have so disobedient maids recently who have been making troubles, could you help to take a look at them?"
Aurora took a deep breathe.
She knew that Queen Ella would not let her go so easily if she didn’t follow what Queen Ella wanted, so Aurora could only nod.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Queen Ella smiled and glanced at the maid. "Let Aurora follow you for a while before letting her go. I’m sure she’ll find the punishnt to be interesting and it might give you ideas to deal with your own disobedient maids."
Aurora still kept the sa polite smile. "Thank you, Your Highness."
With that, Aurora stood up and followed the maid.
Queen Ella watched Aurora’s back and the smile on her face turned cold.
