The prince refers to Whiting as a "cat's paw". This is a reference to a 16th century fable about a monkey who sees some chestnuts roasting in the embers of a fire. Discovering that it is too hot to use his own hand, he grabs the arm of a sleeping cat and uses the cat's paw to retrieve the chestnuts. In another variation the monkey talks the cat into doing this, promising to share the chestnuts but eats them one by one as the cat retrieves them. The cat burns his paw and is rewarded with nothing. Basically, the prince is calling Whiting a dupe of the king.
