Chapter 174: Morning Chaos (2)

"Your Majesty, there’s going to be a war?" Queen Ella asked, her tone was incredulous.

How long has it been since the last time the Yellow Kingdom face a war?

It seemed to have been a long time ago.

Duke Yelan’s territory was right beside Duke Sun’s territory and part of their territory also bordered the Sand Kingdom. If the war were to happen, her territory would indeed got hit first.

The Yellow Kingdom’s King’s words also made her heart sunk.

She knew that the Yelan Dukedom was by no means that rich. They were only slightly richer than the White Dukedom after the trades that was established with Aurora’s help.

"There’s that possibility. This is one of the reasons why the negotiation this time is important," The Yellow Kingdom’s King still answered even though he felt like throwing this woman out of the palace right now.

Queen Ella’s heart reached her throat.

She seemed to realize that she had done something stupid.

So stupid that she might as well dug her own grave.

"What war, Father?" Only Crown Prince Edward didn’t understand. From what he knew, after the ancestor of their family won the war spectacularly, which also brought the Sun Festival in their Yellow Kingdom, there hasn’t been any war again.

The Yellow Kingdom was living peacefully with the other kingdoms.

Moreover, they couldn’t really afford to provoke any war because the resources they have also depended on various trades established with other kingdoms.

"There’s a new mine discovered at the border of the Sand Kingdom and Duke Sun’s territory a few weeks ago. Now, there are dispute about the ownership of the mine because it breached both kingdoms," The Yellow Kingdom’s King explained.

He felt really tired when he thought about this matter.

To be honest, if it was not a valuable mine, he didn’t mind letting the Sand Kingdom have it. But when he found out that it was the rare iron mine...

There was no way he would let it go.

Iron were the main materials to make weapons and if it was given to the Sand Kingdom, they might even lose a lot of money miserably. This was something that He couldn’t afford and he didn’t want to strengthen the Sand Kingdom’s military either.

So there was dispute about this matter.

How should they divide the iron mine to satisfy both parties.

The Yellow Kingdom’s King already had countless headache in his head. He knew very well that it wouldn’t be easy for him to solve it.

Just as he wanted to throw this hot potato to Aurora, there came the news from the Capital Academy about his son’s deeds.

The Yellow Kingdom’s King: "..."

He really wanted to beat up this unfilial son.

But beating up Crown Prince Edward would not change this situation. The Yellow Kingdom’s King knew this very well, so he only called Crown Prince Edward to the Royal Palace.

"You deal with it yourself." The Yellow Kingdom’s King finally sighed and waved his hand. "Both of you can talk about how to solve it."

Talk?

Queen Ella looked at Crown Prince Edward. Even though this young man is her son, Queen Ella knew very well that Crown Prince Edward was simply unreliable. This young man would never be able to help her think about anything.

At this moment, Crown Prince Edward had a dull look. He didn’t understand what the conflict came from.

Couldn’t they just divide equally?

Unfortunately, it was not that simple.

If the Yellow Kingdom’s King were to know what his son was thinking, he might be tempted to beat up Crown Prince Edward once again. The Yellow Kingdom’s King’s son was so unpromising and it didn’t seem to be suitable for him to set Crown Prince Edward as the crown prince.

But at this time, he didn’t care.

The Yellow Kingdom’s King left the main hall and headed to his study. There were still many things for him to do. The Yellow Kingdom’s King didn’t want to bother with this matter and now, he just wanted to take care of other troubles.

For some reasons, there were a lot of matters that was brought to his attention lately. The Yellow Kingdom’s King could only spend some time to manage each and every single one of them even if he actually didn’t want to.

After the Yellow Kingdom’s King left, it was silent in the main hall.

None of Queen Ella or Crown Prince Edward talked.

The Yellow Kingdom’s King’s words not long ago had told them that they were in a big trouble and that he had thrown all of it to them.

No matter what the result, the Yellow Kingdom’s King would not pay attention to them.

But...

"Mother, can’t we just divide the ownership in half?" Crown Prince Edward asked.

"If it’s that simple, it wouldn’t cause so much dispute." Queen Ella took a deep breath. "The iron is a very important resources and both kingdoms would not want each other to have too much."

"Is that so?" Crown Prince Edward was confused.

Queen Ella looked at her son’s expression and took a deep breath. "Call the prime minister and his son. I have to discuss with them."

Rather than discussing this matter with Crown Prince Edward, it would be better to call someone else who were more knowledgeable.

Prime Minister of the Yellow Kingdom and his son, Louis, were clearly the candidate.

After all, the matter of negotiation would also fall on their lap if the Queen couldn’t handle this matter.

"Oh, oh." Crown Prince Edward nodded dumbly and then ran out.

Seeing him like this, Queen Ella sighed deeply. She felt that her son should go to stay in the academy for another year.

Wait, no, he should have private education for another year.

If this continued, Crown Prince Edward might be removed from his position by the Yellow Kingdom’s King.

Queen Ella sighed deeply.

She thought about her second son who was only 12 years old and only started studying in the Capital Academy last year.

Should she shift her focus?
