Chapter 252: Meeting with Queen Farah (2)
Of course, Aurora had no plan to advise Queen Rachel.
That woman had made a lot of troubles for her and Aurora still hadn’t paid back for what she did back then.
Besides that, Aurora also established information channels and managed to get various important information from various places. One of them was naturally the Royal Palace as she was able to know what Queen Rachel was doing.
’Prince Brian is doing well.’
Aurora nodded with satisfaction when she saw that Prince Brian was using the information that she had shared very well. By making use of the information, he prevented Queen Rachel from having real power and possibly threatened Prince Brian’s position.
Otherwise, it would be a bit difficult for them in the future.
As for Prince Brian getting more power with this?
To be honest, Aurora didn’t care that much and only think that it should have been that way. He’s the legitimate prince and it was only natural for him to obtain a lot of power.
However, Queen Rachel has been quite restless lately.
Looking at the list of things that Queen Rachel has been doing lately, Aurora’s eyes narrowed. It seemed that Queen Rachel wanted to eliminate troubles that come to her door.
But how could it be so easy?
Aurora tapped the table in front of her, sighing.
How should she stop this?
She didn’t really like this arrangement that Queen Rachel made for Adela and her other cousin.
Prince Brian has a younger sister, who’s even younger than Aurora. She had never seen her, but Prince Brian had told her that his sister is very good.
And Queen Rachel should feel that it was hard to target Prince Brian and Duchess Isabella directly, so she planned to deal with their daughters first.
Tsk, what a ruthless woman.
Knock! Knock!
As Aurora was thinking, there was a knock on the door.
"Miss, someone with the name ’Farah’ is here to see you."
Farah?
Aurora sat up upright on her seat almost immediately. While she didn’t know the names of all nobles in the Red Kingdom, she still knew the names of the few important people.
One of them was naturally Farah Paige from Paige Dukedom, the daughter of the current Duke Paige and also the Queen of the Red Kingdom.
The legitimate ones.
"Please let her come in and prepare some tea."
"Yes, Miss."
The door opened and Queen Farah walked into the room calmly and elegantly. Her eyes swept the room before falling to Aurora. The corner of her lips curled up slightly when she saw Aurora’s appearance.
If Queen Farah had to say, Aurora’s appearance was really similar to the former King of the Red Kingdom during the time when the Red Kingdom was in great power.
It was truly a coincidence.
"Queen Farah," Aurora greeted and bowed in accordance to etiquette.
"You don’t have to be so polite in front of me. I didn’t come here as the queen and only as an aunt who wants to pay a visit to her niece," Queen Farah said and waved her hand elegantly.
"Yes, Aunt Farah," Aurora replied with a faint smile. "Please take a seat."
Seeing how Aurora carried herself, Queen Farah truly couldn’t find any loopholes. Everything looked very perfect and made Queen Farah amazed by how one’s demeanor could be so elegant.
Queen Farah took a seat and Aurora was also back to her own seat. She smiled. "I would like to thank you for the information you shared with my son."
"Prince Brian is my cousin, so it’s only natural for me to help him," Aurora replied unhurriedly.
Queen Farah kept her smile.
Who would believe Aurora’s words?
It was clear that Aurora had her own intention when she told Prince Brian about these things. However, she would definitely not be willing to tell others if she had no other intention.
After all, it would be best to keep these things for herself.
"I see that your business is doing well. Do you need help anywhere?" Queen Farah asked.
The business that the Era Guild had was getting better and better. The few people who came to them felt that the service was really good and they could also trade many items that they couldn’t sell easily, so many people started coming.
There were various services that Aurora did here.
Of course, the one who managed everything was Karl.
Aurora had no interest to get involved in everything personally.
So in just the short period of time when Aurora was in the Red Kingdom, her business had become better and better. It was to the point that there was no doubt that the Red Kingdom’s King would pay attention to Aurora soon.
After all, with such a huge business under his nose, the Red Kingdom’s King would not be so happy.
The Royal Family themselves were not very rich and now someone richer than them showed up?
They would not be able to stay calm.
"If possible, I hope to borrow your family’s name, Aunt Farah," Aurora replied with a faint smile.
A business without any noble’s backing would encounter trouble sooner or later. Even though Aurora had already employed enough people to be the bodyguards and so on, Aurora knew that it was only the beginning.
At this moment, Era Guild would not attract anyone’s attention. But as the scale grew bigger, there would be many people eyeing it.
The Red Kingdom’s King was only one of them.
If Era Guild could have the Paige Family’s name backing them, then they could operate with more confidence without the need to worry about anything.
Of course, Aurora knew that this would not be for free.
She would either need to pay the Paige Family a percentage of her business or they could strike some other deals.
"Oh?" Queen Farah arched her eyebrows. She looked at Aurora carefully and smiled faintly. "And what would it be for me?"
Talking with a smart person would be easy and Queen Farah knew that Aurora would definitely not allow her to suffer. This was the basis of negotiation and they have to make it seem as if the other party would ’earn’ something while in truth, they would earn more.
In the past, Queen Farah was also the one who hold the negotiation with other kingdom.
So she knew this method very well.
"I can share some informations and also a small percentage from some of Era Guild’s business," Aurora replied.
"Information?" Queen Farah’s eyes narrowed.
If she was not wrong, the first deal Aurora made with her son was also about information. However, it was information about the Yellow Kingdom. To be exact, it was the information about Queen Rachel’s movement during the negotiation in the Yellow Kingdom.
That kind of information was indeed hard to find for Queen Farah.
After all, Queen Farah didn’t have much connection there.
But now that they were in the Red Kingdom, Queen Farah was confident that her source of information was better than Aurora.
In that case, would it be useful for her?
Aurora could see Queen Farah was skeptical so she replied, "I have some people within the palace and also other place. I believe you know that Era Guild had already expanded to various cities in the Red Kingdom."
Queen Farah nodded.
To be honest, Era Guild’s rapid expansion was something that Queen Farah felt terrified about. She couldn’t figure out how Aurora was able to manage such a big business that cover up such a large area.
Moreover, Queen Farah also knew that Aurora should have her own way to do this.
"Yes, you’re really brave, Niece Aurora." Queen Farah smiled.
Aurora chuckled.
Is it bravery?
She had already made the preparation to enter the Red Kingdom for a long time. But she didn’t have the chance in the past because she wouldn’t be able to manage many things personally.
Now that she was in the Red Kingdom’s territory, Aurora had the confidence that she would be able to do this. It was one of the reasons Aurora dared to be here today and did various businesses.
Of course, she was also careful enough to make sure that she didn’t make any mistake.
There were still many people who were eyeing her head.
"I also have some people in the palace and from what I know, Her Highness wants to introduce someone to her daughter and niece," Aurora said slowly. "I think she’s on her way to see His Majesty as we speak."
Queen Farah’s face changed when she heard this.
Over the years, Queen Farah was already used to deal with Queen Rachel and felt that the few tactics that Queen Rachel used was nothing more than that.
This woman was annoying, but it would not do anything that was too harmful for Queen Farah.
Now, Aurora told her that Queen Rachel had set her sight on her daughter?
Queen Farah felt instant rage in her heart.
