Chapter 429 - 229: Inherit the Fleet! Wedding!_2
The Yan Queen continued, "However, my daughter suffered an accidental injury when she was thirteen, and her mental faculties have remained at that age ever since, rendering her incapable of inheriting the throne."
Instantly, all the Island Masters present expressed their pity.
For Princess Yan Xue, they had watched her grow up and were filled with absolute tenderness and affection for her.
The Yan Queen said, "At the recent selection of suitors, my daughter finally chose a young man to become her husband. Therefore, I have formally decided to marry Princess Yan Xue’er off to the man she chose, Shen Lang. Moreover, the entire populace of Queen Island and all the ships will be passed on to Princess Yan Xue’er."
This announcement caused a slight shock among the audience.
Yan Mo was somewhat taken aback, looking incredulously at his mother the Queen.
As king of the Yan Clan and the blessed of the Sea God, the Yan Clan owned two main islands, Wang Island and Queen Island, which together housed twenty-five thousand people and three hundred and fifty ships, constituting one-third of the entire Yan Tribe’s power.
Now the Queen intended to hand over Queen Island to his sister Yan Xue’er, which meant that after he ascended the throne, he would only possess Wang Island.
As a result, his power as the Yan King would only amount to one-fifth of the Yan Tribe’s total force.
Moreover, if they relocated to the Thunder Archipelago, he would also lose the Yan King’s Palace.
More importantly, this action by the Queen amounted to another split within the entire Yan Tribe.
