The Amazing son in law Chapter 7804
For Helena, abdication is simple, but for the Nordic royal family, once she abdicates, the royal family is basically doomed.
Now that the throne has come to her, there is no one to pass it on to. If she insists on abdicating without an heir, there are only two possible outcomes: either the royal family will come to an end and there will be no more Nordic royal families; or they will simply borrow a king from another constitutional monarchy in Europe.
Such things were common before World War II. At that time, European royal families were mostly related by marriage. If no one from the maternal uncle’s family was left, it was not uncommon for the family to send a young person to inherit the throne.
However, nowadays, relations between people are relatively distant, and the national concepts among the people of European countries are no longer as harmonious as before the war. They generally view other countries with prejudice, so from the people’s perspective, it is difficult to accept members of other countries’ royal families coming to be their kings.
Thinking about this, Helena couldn’t help but recall the key point her grandmother had always emphasized.
The point isn’t that she absolutely has to marry charlie wade or anything like that; the point is that she has to have a child.
She couldn’t help but sigh to herself, “Grandma was right after all… No matter what, the royal family needs an heir…”
Seeing that she had fallen silent and looked thoughtful, Lin Wan’er (Alani) stepped forward and whispered, “Does Her Majesty the Empress also want to go to Antarctica with us?”
Helena felt that the little girl had seen right through her. Embarrassed to meet her mischievous gaze, she muttered awkwardly in a low voice, “I… I’m not as free as you guys, going wherever I want. The royal family’s activities only have a few days of rest. Before long, we’ll be participating in various activities and making friendly visits to different countries again.”
After saying that, she sighed softly, “I’ll make another call to confirm and see which day would be more suitable for you to arrive in Argentina.”
Seeing that she was distracted, Lin Wan’er (Alani) chuckled and stopped teasing her.
Helena quickly returned from the call and said to the group, “I just checked, the research vessel is currently in the port of Ushuaia, Argentina, and is scheduled to depart in five days. As long as everyone can arrive in Ushuaia before departure, there will be no problem.”
charlie wade nodded and said, “Then I’ll coordinate the flight and have it depart directly from Northern Europe.”
Yun Rugo couldn’t help but remind him, “Mr. wade, don’t forget that the Broken Qing Society’s hideout is on a small island in South America near Antarctica. Argentina is a springboard for them to spread their influence around the world. If we go directly to Argentina, won’t we be walking into their trap?”
Lin Wan’er (Alani) smiled and said, “Young Master and I have both tracked a shipping company actually controlled by the Breaking Qing Society. We found that they do have frequent flights to and from Buenos Aires, but Ushuaia has never been mentioned. Ushuaia is at the southernmost tip of Argentina, and also the southernmost point of South America. It is two or three thousand kilometers away from Buenos Aires. People usually use it as a transit point to go to Antarctica. Since the Breaking Qing Society has never used Ushuaia, it proves that their lair is not near Ushuaia. We will bypass Buenos Aires and fly directly to Ushuaia, which should be much safer.”
Helena said seriously, “Flying from the Arctic Circle to the Antarctic Circle will probably take at least twenty hours. Such a long flight is very rare. Civil aviation enthusiasts will definitely be curious about the purpose of the flight and may even discuss it online. So, if Mr. wade doesn’t mind, I’ll arrange the flight. It just so happens that the Nordic research vessel is in Ushuaia. We can announce that it is an emergency transport of a batch of special supplies needed for Antarctica to the research vessel in Ushuaia. That would seem more reasonable.”
charlie wade nodded and said, “Then I’ll trouble you to make the arrangements.”
Helena asked, “When do we leave?”
charlie wade said, “The sooner the better.”
Helena then said, “Then let’s return to Osu City first thing tomorrow morning. I’ll have them prepare so we can take off tomorrow afternoon. Also, I’ll have someone prepare a set of Nordic identity documents for you, so it will be safer to enter Argentina.”
