Chapter 91: The Negotiation (3)
’It’s done.’
Aurora looked at the signed documents in front of her and stretched her hand slightly. She didn’t dare to be so obvious because she was still in a public place.
"Miss Aurora." A maid stopped Aurora before she came out. "Her Majesty would like to see you."
Hearing the maid’s words, Aurora’s eyes condensed slightly.
Her Majesty in the maid’s words could only be Queen Rachel, who was also considered as Aurora’s aunt. It was just that they have no blood relationship.
The fact that the situation in the Red Kingdom’s Royal Palace has been a mess was not a secret.
There were many people who knew about this.
But even if they knew about it, they didn’t dare to step in and got involved in this mess. Because they knew better than anyone that if they were to get involved, they might end up burning themselves in the process.
Aurora herself had no intention to side with anyone.
Just her uncle, the Red Kingdom’s King, was already troublesome enough. She could hear his words back then to make her side more with the Red Kingdom, but Aurora knew better than anyone that she couldn’t do that.
If she were to do that, how could she explain to the Yellow Kingdom behind her?
So while the deals seemed to be profitable for the Red Kingdom, the Yellow Kingdom actually benefit far from more with the other things she asked them to trade in exchange.
It was just that those who were not clear of the situation in the Yellow Kingdom wouldn’t notice.
Now that Queen Rachel asked her to meet with the other party, does she noticed Aurora’s real intention?
It shouldn’t be.
Everything was thought in Aurora’s mind within a second and after that, she responded, "I know. Please lead the way."
The maid bowed and then turned around to lead Aurora.
Aurora honestly felt rather tired after the long negotiation process. That old fox Prime Minister Jake kept on making things difficult for her.
It was clear that he was dissatisfied with the negotiation result.
Thankfully, the current situation was that the two kingdoms wished to coexist peacefully and had to rely on the trades and so on. If they were to go against each other in battle, then it was estimated that Aurora’s life would be in danger.
’But with this war, there wouldn’t be any new negotiation for the next few years.’
The other kingdoms were not willing to go to the Red Kingdom.
Aurora herself had no intention to go.
And the Red Kingdom couldn’t possibly let their Queen went to the other kingdoms in this situation. What if the Ice Kingdom decided to take advantage?
Then they would be the one to suffer.
Pushing all the thoughts away, Aurora followed the path to the queen’s palace. The palace itself was located quite beside the main palace. From this alone, it could be seen that the king put the Queen Rachel in much importance.
His concubine was staying in the palace nearer his own.
The legitimate queen’s palace was much further than this and even the negotiation’s matter was handed over to the concubine queen. It was clear that the King was silently pressuring his own queen.
Aurora shook her head internally but decided not to care about this. Because she knew that she couldn’t do anything.
Even if she could, she didn’t want to.
This is someone’s else household problems and it was not Aurora’s place to meddle.
Looking at the grand palace in front of her, Aurora could see that the queen was favored and her position was still very high. She was not mistreated in the slightest bit and allowed to live in luxury.
But perhaps for Queen Rachel, it was far from enough.
She had risen from the low position until she managed to reach this point. What she wanted was naturally for her son to be the crown prince.
It was just that her son was so disappointing.
Prince Charles didn’t like to study and instead liked to play around a lot.
It was also because of this that the king hesitated from giving the crown prince title to him. Even though he didn’t love his queen, but the son she produced was really capable and for the Red Kingdom as a whole, he would be a better king.
So the king refrained from picking a prince.
He remained steady on the throne.
"Miss Aurora, please come inside." The maid kept on bowing as she led the way for Aurora.
Aurora nodded and followed the maid inside, looking around at the Royal Palace as she walked forward.
Before long, she reached the study room where Queen Rachel was. There were snacks on the table and Queen Rachel herself had only finished eating something.
The negotiation was quite long for her.
She had to work hard in order to be able to sort out and calculate the gain and losses for the Red Kingdom as a whole. It was not easy and for Queen Rachel who was born of lower noble and didn’t have high status in the beginning, it was even harder.
But she had finally managed to earn the title of a queen even if some people would still call her as a concubine.
It was frustrating.
"You’re here, Miss Aurora," Queen Rachel said and beckoned for Aurora to sit down in front of her.
Aurora could see that Queen Rachel’s etiquette had clearly fallen after she was alone. It was clear that when there was no one who was watching her, Queen Rachel would not be bothered to act as if she was still the high and mighty queen from before.
But putting down her guard like this...
It might have been fine if Queen Rachel was staying in her own bedroom and being alone. But if she did it here, her image was clearly not very good.
But Aurora put away these thoughts and greeted, "Aurora White greets Queen Rachel from Red Kingdom."
