I don't think that would work.

First off, I *think* Reveal/Conceal only works on non-living objects, based on the description of the spell. Secondly, a Conceal spell only works if something is hiding, or very small, so unless the prince is lurking in his closet all the time or is a prince of mice, he isn't going to gain a benefit from it. I think it's pretty implicit that you can't cast Conceal on, say, a hidden 5' stone statue, and then move it into the middle to the street and have it stay concealed, as well. This would be the same thing.
