Lanling Palace.
In the study, Ling Zhou's forehead was covered with sweat as he listened to his father Ling Wenbo's words.
What's going on?
Succession?
Are you kidding?
I haven't been a prince enough, I haven't enjoyed life enough, what's the point of taking the throne?
He didn't want to succeed to the throne so soon. Being a king is good, high above everyone else, and one of the most powerful people on the planet. If he were in a royal family full of princes, he might rack his brains to fight for the right to inherit the throne.
But it’s different at home!
I am the only son in my family.
He is also the only heir to the royal family.
Just like what the outside world said, the throne is there anyway, it will be his sooner or later, he can't run away, he can't lose it. Isn't it the same when he succeeds to the throne?
In this case, he felt that being a prince was more comfortable.
After all, managing a country is not easy.
Think of the people who run a company and have a completely bald head.
"Father, what are you talking about? You are still so young, and this is your prime. The country needs you right now, too. How can I succeed to the throne at this time?"
Ling Zhou said with a smile.
Just kidding, according to his plan, it should be 10 years later, after he has done what he should do and enjoyed enough, it won’t be too late to talk about succession.
I am only 20 years old and I am going to manage a country. What a joke.
Manage a country!
It’s tiring just thinking about dealing with the cabinet and leaders from all over the world all day long.
If they can become leaders, it must be because they stepped on blood and bones.
No one can become the leader of a country without anyone else.
How can a young man like me fight with others?
Of course, Lan Ling had plenty of people, and his father had paved a wide and long enough road for him over the years. He just needed to know how to use people and grasp the balance of power.
But even so, it's tiring.
"This is the custom of our Lanling royal family. Your grandfather did it this way, and so do I. Now it's your turn. So, are you planning to break the rules set by our ancestors?"
Ling Wenbo said in a neutral tone.
There was a hint of scolding in his tone.
On the side, Qiao Yu looked at Ling Zhou, speechless.
Think about your own family, where the brothers fought endlessly for the position and almost killed each other. But when it came to Lingzhou, he actually refused to succeed to the throne.
In fact, she really wanted Ling Zhou to succeed to the throne as soon as possible.
When Ling Zhou succeeds to the throne, she will be Queen Lan Ling, and her status will be higher.
By that time, perhaps I could control the fighting between my brothers.
After all, the Yaslan royal family currently needs Lan Ling's support.
By then, as the Queen of Lanling and Princess Yaslan, I will be able to restrain my brothers.
She was really afraid that her brothers and younger brothers would resort to ruthless warfare and kill each other.
They are all close relatives, and I really don’t want to see these things happen.
Just like during this time, there was a royal family in Europe.
That kingdom is also an absolute monarchy. Although its international influence is not as great as that of Lanling or the Kingdom of Yaslan, and its military is a mess, even inferior to the Kingdom of Yaslan, it can still be considered a developed country.
The royal family of that country has more than 20 princes.
These 20 princes all have the right to inherit the throne. There are more than 20 heirs, but only one throne. You can imagine how fierce the struggle is.
You want the throne and I want the throne too, so let’s fight, rob, and kill.
It is not new at all for close relatives to kill each other.
Just a few days ago, a prince of that royal family died in a shipwreck.
Of course, the situation of the Lanling royal family is different from all the royal families in the world, because this royal family has only one heir, the only heir.
I don’t know how much the royal princes from all over the world envy Ling Zhou.
Her brothers and her younger brother have complained to her in subtle ways countless times.
For example, her second brother once said to his sister in private: You know, it would be great if it were just us brothers and sisters.
Qiao Yu felt complicated, while Yu Yin, who was standing beside her, chuckled softly. She had known this would happen.
But she didn't care about it.
Whether she is queen or princess consort, it's all the same to her.
As long as I can silently support Ling Zhou behind the scenes, that's enough.
She is not interested in power struggles.
Listening to his father's words, Ling Zhou was speechless.
It's not a clearly stated rule, it's just a habit.
A few decades ago, wasn't there a royal family that forcefully destroyed the ancestral precepts set by their ancestors? Not to mention that it was just an unspoken custom.
"Father, I..."
Ling Zhou rolled his eyes, thinking of an idea.
"Tell me, give me a reason that convinces me. Inheriting the throne is your mission. Managing this country, protecting its people, and making sure the people of Lanling live and work in peace and contentment is also your innate mission. No one can change this."
Ling Wenbo's face turned serious.
The atmosphere in the study suddenly became solemn.
This was a rare time when Ling Wenbo treated his son so seriously.
"Give me a reason. If this reason can convince me, even if you want to wait until your son grows up and let him succeed to the throne, that's fine."
Ling Wenbo said.
Lingzhou was speechless. Is it necessary?
Son succeeds to the throne?
I haven't yet satisfied my craving for a king, so that unborn child, stay aside for now until I've satisfied my craving.
