"But, Your Majesty. He's not of the Royal Lineage. Would it not mean the end of your bloodline at the helm of this Kingdom? The Eldest Prince can continue your bloodline as a ruler," one of the Ministers suggested.
"Yes, Your Majesty. If you don't want him at the helm, you can also make another heir. You should still be able to have a kid," Another minister suggested.
"Bloodline is fleeting, but the Kingdom is eternal. I don't want my Kingdom to go in the hands of my Eldest Son! As for having another son, I know my abilities. It's not possible for me anymore. As for my health, I don't think I should be able to carry the burden of this Kingdom any longer," Long Chen said as he sighed.
"I want to go to the frontline to battle one last time to relive my young days again. It's final. Long Chen will be the new King," Long Chen declared.
