It is implicit in the rules that the Royal Queen cannot capture a Prince
Consort from a distance. The Royal Quuen cannot move through check, and
would be in check when it reached the adjecent square!  If the Queen is
already adjacent to the Prince Consort, it is already in check and may
capture the Prince Consort if it is undefended.
