Chapter 15: Formal Position
Chapter 15: Formal Position
Aurora didn't know what her mother was thinking.
Nor what other people were thinking.
Red Kingdom's King looked at Duchess Isabella and Aurora behind her. "Are you sure that you want your daughter to replace you starting next year?"
"Yes," Duchess Isabella replied. "My daughter is very bright and I believe she could do it. Besides, as the future crown princess, she had to get used to her work earlier."
Duke Rain was also present as he was one of the few people who usually listen in to the negotiation. He looked at his sister with a strange expression. "She's only 10 years old, right?"
They still knew the basic information of Aurora, so they knew her age.
So hearing Duchess Isabella wanted a 10 years old kid to lead in the negotiation that involved the interest of the entire kingdom sounded strange for them.
"She'll be 11 years old next year," Duchess Isabella replied. "And I'll be there to accompany her."
"Hmm." The Red Kingdom's King tapped the chair's handle.
He looked at the young girl who was following Duchess Isabella and could guess that there was no point in asking the child. Looking at her eyes, she seemed to have long gotten used to her mother's request.
No matter whether she could do it or not, she had to do it.
Even if it meant breaking her mind and body, forcing herself beyond her limit.

"That's just like you, Isabella." The Red Kingdom's King laughed. He understood his sister's personality more or less. "I don't have any objection as long as the Yellow Kingdom also approve of this matter."
For him, it didn't matter who lead the negotiation from the Yellow Kingdom as long as the negotiation could be done. The other kingdoms also sometime send their Queen for the negotiation. At other times, they would send other politician such as the prime minister.
The Yellow Kingdom trusted Duchess Isabella and knowing his sister's capability, the Red Kingdom's King was not surprised.
"I will talk to them," Duchess Isabella replied.
Duke Rain clicked his tongue but didn't say anything more. He only shook his head and felt that the daughters of Duchess Isabella sure didn't have it easy.
This woman's standard was high because of their education in the past.
He often escaped, but there were also people who couldn't escape and had to follow through until the very end.
"I see." The Red Kingdom's King nodded at his sister.
They talked a bit more before Duchess Isabella left with Aurora following behind her.
With this, it seemed that the matter of her study would increase again?
Thinking about it made Aurora felt tired, but she also knew that she had to continue with it until the very end.
...
"Will you come again next year?" Prince Brian asked when they gather before Aurora and Duchess Isabella had to leave.
"I have to come again next year, Your Highness," Aurora replied. As the representative of the Yellow Kingdom, Aurora would have no other choice but to come.
"Then next year, you have to play more with us!" Prince Charles raised his fist. What he wanted the most was for them to play more rather than studying and couldn't do anything else about it.
With Aurora here, he had more excuses and the teachers were also tolerating him.
Prince Charles wouldn't be able to have so many excuses when he wanted to skip his classes next without Aurora being here.
Prince Brian patted his half younger brother's shoulder. "Don't use your cousin as the excuse for you to skip your classes, Charles."
"I know..." Prince Charles shrugged. "But in any case, if Cousin Aurora needs more company, I'm always available!"
Aurora: "..."
Prince Brian: "..."
The two of them were sure that this was only Prince Charles trying to get away from his classes.
Prince Brian shook his head and looked at Aurora. "I heard from my mother about the matter, so see you next year, Cousin Aurora."
His mother?
Aurora looked up to see Prince Brian smiling in her direction, but this smile had never reached his eyes.
The people from the nobility are all mostly like this.
Aurora smiled back in Prince Brian's direction. "I will see you next year, Your Highness."
Even though Prince Brian was not the one involved directly in the negotiation, since it involved in the negotiation, then his mother would be the one there. It wouldn't be strange for his mother to share him some things.
Ah, how troublesome.
