Chapter 2580 Reliable
Let everyone else leave. Of course, Zheng Qiu and Fatty Wang also stayed. They stood behind Gu Xin on the left and right.
They and a group of Nanlin envoys were the only ones left in the room.
Lord Jiang thought for a while and started with the royal family of Nanlin.
Nanlin has a history of several hundred years. Their ancestors should have passed by the seashore in the south of the Great Zhou. According to records, their ancestors made a living by fishing in the Great Zhou.
They were living well, but they accidentally offended the powerful. The powerful even wanted to destroy the whole village. The old people in the village discussed that since they couldn't avoid it, they might as well escape.
Many people in their village went to sea, so after sitting down and deciding, the whole village took three days to go to sea. Some people did not survive at sea because of various problems. In the end, there were only more than a hundred people who survived to the current Nanlin.
They intermarried with the local people of Nanlin, learned the writing and language of Nanlin, and finally, with great ambition, they established a regime. After hundreds of years of development, Nanlin had a total of 20 cities and a large population. Except for occasional encounters with pirates, there were basically no other wars.
The Long family of Nanlin did not have a special rule that the king must be a man. They chose the best person to inherit the throne. If a woman inherited, the queen would marry a husband and give birth to the next generation. If a man inherited, it would be the same as the Great Zhou.
The heirs of the Nanlin royal family were not many. The most king had only five children. Therefore, there was basically no phenomenon of brothers and sisters fighting for the throne in Nanlin. Whoever was selected would be allowed to enter management too early and become familiar with government affairs.
And the heir to the throne this time was Princess Longzhuer.
The current King of Nanlin is the only one in hundreds of years of history who has no sons but only daughters. He has three daughters. Longzhuer is the second princess. The eldest princess is two years older than Longzhuer, and the third princess is three years younger than Longzhuer.
The three sisters have all grown up. The eldest princess and the third princess have both had their husbands. Long Zhuer is being trained as a crown prince and has not yet married, but she has a male concubine in her house.
The King and Queen of Nanlin have not yet found a son-in-law who can shoulder the great cause with their daughters.
When the three sisters were young, they had the same civil and military teachers and learned the same things, but Princess Long Zhuer was particularly intelligent. The civil and military teachers praised her, and even the ministers thought she could do it.
Therefore, the King of Nanlin chose her instead of the older eldest princess.
When Long Zhuer turned fourteen, the sixteen-year-old eldest princess already had a husband, and she also withdrew from some official duties, and stayed at home to take care of her husband and children and enjoy life.
When Long Zhuer turned eighteen last year, the fifteen-year-old third princess also got married, but she was still learning things.
As for Long Zhuer, in the eyes of Lord Jiang, she is the qualified successor of their Nanlin Kingdom. No matter in terms of civil affairs, military affairs or strategy, since the past two years, Long Zhuer has been able to represent Nanlin Kingdom to negotiate with General Jiacang and King Dongzhe.
Moreover, she can handle everything well.
Therefore, in the eyes of Lord Jiang and other ministers, Long Zhuer is the best, their king. I don’t know if she can compare with General Shi Mu of Jiacang, but compared with Prince Tiantian of Dongzhe, their second princess is much more reliable.
