Chapter 190: I Wonder How Robin-sama Is Doing?
"By the way, how far has Robin-sama gone?"At the Queen’s question,
"I believe he is still inside the country. He may even still be near the capital. Prince Robin was quite a favorite of the Queen’s, wasn’t he? I never imagined you would take such a liking to him."
Richelieu answered.
"Yes. At first I thought him a strange child and was merely observing, but once I spent time with him he turned out to be quite interesting in various ways."
She could not say that he had given her the youth-rejuvenating medicine.
"The Queen even went to restaurants in the Commoner District with Prince Robin three times."
"Yes. All of them were more delicious than I had imagined, and I spent enjoyable times."
"Thanks to that, Cantoner has lost all his hair."
"My condolences."
The Queen said it with a face that showed not the slightest sympathy.
"Come to think of it, the old lord of the Anderson Ducal House also took quite a liking to Prince Robin, did he not?"
At the Queen’s words Richelieu looked surprised.
"Oh? That difficult old man? Why is that?"
"Apparently Prince Robin happened to pass in front of the mansion and met him. At that time the people of the ducal house, not knowing he was Prince Robin, tried to intimidate him. He calmly brushed it aside. The old lord saw that and took a liking to him. The other day the old lord came to me and negotiated to have him brought back from the Mainz Kingdom as soon as possible. Apparently he intends to make him the husband of Lady Annie."
"Annie?"
Richelieu did not know who that was.
"The Third Princess, Lady Annie. She is currently ten years old, is she not?"
Taught by the Queen, Richelieu said,
"Ah, the old lord’s granddaughter. If he has taken such a liking to him, it would have been good to send her along when Robin-sama went to the Mainz Kingdom this time."
The Queen laughed "hohoho" and said,
"He seems to dislike sending his granddaughter far away. He wants to keep her close no matter what. He said he wants to bring Prince Robin back to the kingdom and then have them marry."
Hearing that, Richelieu said in exasperation,
"What a convenient story. Well, I also want to bring Robin-sama back quickly, so I shall make efforts to that end."
