The inheritance system of the Kingdom of Kunta is a combination of hereditary and election, not absolute eldest son inheritance.
After the king abdicates, the princes and ministers will elect a new king from among the king's heirs. The person elected must have a blood relationship with the king. Therefore, the heir can only be a person with royal blood, and in this closed country for hundreds of years
In the kingdom, there has never been a precedent for wearing a yellow robe.
"So according to common sense, it is impossible for the guard captain Barr to become the king. At best, he will support a puppet emperor."
Annan told Barrow what he knew.
Barrow smiled slightly and drank the wine in the bottle.
"You are very smart to hear the problem in my words so quickly. There is indeed a reason why Barr kept you here."
"Oh, it seems that Barr has solved this problem." Annan handed the bottle of wine to Barro.
"Of course." Barrow took a few sips and patted his chest after taking it.
"Since you have such a bright mind, you might as well take a guess."
"You want me to guess?" Annan couldn't help but said with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah." Barrow nodded, "If you guess correctly, I will tell you a secret that you nobles don't know."
Annan touched his chin and pondered for a moment.
"They were all dealt with without anyone noticing?"
"You are half right." Barrow said with a smile, "The last king lived too long and left many descendants. The current king is the eldest son and also has many heirs. When King Monto succeeds to the throne,
, excluding those who have been buried, there are nearly a thousand people with royal blood."
"It's so lively." Annan's mouth twitched, "You killed so many people?"
"Hiccup~ Don't put the blame on us." Barrow hiccupped, "If so many royal family members died, everyone could see that there was something wrong. In fact, most of these people's deaths had nothing to do with Barr.
In the process of cleaning up the royal family, we only killed some key people."
Annan frowned, "Most of them don't do that, could it be..."
Annan is relatively familiar with palace politics. If the people who get rid of the royal family members are not the people in front of him, then to a large extent...
"Yes, it's just what you thought."
Barrow got drunker and said, "Most of the royal family members were managed by that fool king himself, hahaha."
"In order to leave the king's position to his children, the king used various means to get rid of other people. At that time, wars broke out in the Kingdom of Quinta, and those rebels became the guillotine to chop off the heads of the royal family members." p>
"It's really surprising." Annan said lightly.
"But you don't need to worry about it. The people who died are all members of the royal family anyway, and it has nothing to do with you. Want one?" Barrow took out a pack of cigarettes from his arms, pulled out two cigarettes, turned the cigarette over, and removed the butt of the cigarette.
One side is facing Annan.
"I know you aristocrats are very naughty, but this cigarette is not some other brand. Do you know 'Kingground'? The most famous cigarette in the East China Sea." Barrow shook the cigarette case in his hand, "The pack in my hand is still the most expensive.
That kind of price, the price of one pack is enough for an ordinary family to live for half a year."
"Ah, you're welcome." Annan took the cigarette, "I haven't tried Donghai's cigarettes yet."
"Anyway, it's definitely more potent than your local tobacco."
