In the blink of an eye, Liu Chuan was already nineteen years old. It had been more than two years since he had sat on the throne.
In the past two years, Liu Chuan had been very busy. However, it was very fulfilling. To be able to witness the Germanic Empire becoming stronger and stronger under his rule, and even changing the fate of the future, he felt a great sense of accomplishment.
However, the issue of marriage did need to be considered.
Although he was the emperor of the empire and the throne was already stable. However, there were still uncertainties.
If he could have an heir as soon as possible and leave behind an heir to the throne, that would be the best.
"Mother, I will consider it. However, there was no suitable candidate for the time being!”Liu Chuan said.
"I've already considered it for you. The Germanic Empire was a major power in Europe and even the world. Therefore, the candidate for the throne could either be chosen from the princesses of the country or from the princesses of other countries. If she was a princess of a small country, she wouldn't be worthy of your status.”Queen Victoria said.
Liu Chuan nodded. He was naturally aware of this problem.
In this era of Europe, it was very important for the royal family to be married and for their families to be of equal status.
Moreover, the private life of the European royal family in this era was also very chaotic.
Because the West practiced monogamy. Therefore, the emperor could only have one empress. However, as a monarch, the Emperor was also a man. He still held great power in his hands. In that case, they naturally yearned for good food. He would naturally pursue beautiful women.
This was why the emperors and kings of the west only had one empress. However, he had many lovers in private.
Women in the west were also more open-minded than those in the east. Many empresses and queens also had their own lovers. The husband and wife simply went their separate ways.
Liu Chuan was still a very traditional person. He did not want to be cuckolded. Therefore, he had to choose the empress carefully.
"Tsar Nicholas II's younger sister, Archduchess Olga Alexandrovna, is already fourteen years old this year. She's a very good candidate. In addition, Princess Elizabeth Mary, the granddaughter of Emperor Franz Joseph I of Austro-Hun Empire, was already thirteen years old this year, and was also a very good candidate. After all, the relationship between the Empire and the Austro-Hun Empire was very close. The Austro-Hun Empire was the Empire's most important ally.
Apart from that, there was also Princess Mary, the granddaughter of King Edward VII of the Sun Never Sets Empire. His father was Crown Prince George of the Sun Never Sets Empire. However, Princess Mary was only nine years old. She's ten years younger than you. Of course, this was not a problem. They could get engaged first and get married a few years later.
The princesses in the country were mainly the princesses of King ludwig III of bavaria. King Louis III had a total of nine princesses. Among them, Princess Helmchude is twenty years old this year, one year older than you. Princess Dietlinde, 18 years old. Princess Gondelinde was fifteen years old this year.”
Queen Victoria was obviously very concerned and had already learned about the relevant information in advance.
Although she did not like Liu Chuan very much, Liu Chuan was still her son. Moreover, Liu Chuan had become the emperor of the Germanic Empire.
"Mother, I understand. I need to think about it and give you an answer as soon as possible!”Liu Chuan said.
Queen Victoria nodded and didn't say anything.
After returning to his bedroom, Liu Chuan couldn't help but start thinking about the princesses.
Princess Mary, the granddaughter of King Edward VII of the Sun Never Sets Empire, was too young. She was only nine years old and was directly eliminated by Ichon.
For emperors and princesses like them, age was not a problem.
However, Liu Chuan didn't want to play the game of raising.
As for Tsar Nicholas II's sister, Liu Chuan thought about it and passed.
The Germanic Empire and the Russian Empire were destined to be enemies. Especially Liu Chuan, who was drooling over the vast Eastern European plains occupied by the Russian Empire. With so much fertile land, if the Germanic Empire could control it, it would be impossible for the Germanic Empire to control it. In that case, it would undoubtedly increase the territory of the German Empire greatly.
At the same time, it could also satisfy the territorial needs of the German Empire.
In addition, the Russian Empire was an ally of the Gaul Kingdom. Even if Liu Chuan wanted to ask Archduchess Olga Alexandrovna, Nicholas II would never agree.
Therefore, the most suitable candidates for Liu Chuan were Princess Elizabeth Mary of the Austro-Hun Empire and the princesses of the Kingdom of Bava.
The Austro-Hun Empire was a very important ally to the Germanic Empire. It could be said that he was a hardcore ally of the Germanic Empire. The biggest problem was that the Austro-Hun Empire was full of internal contradictions, and the entire empire was likely to fall apart. Moreover, although the heavy industry of the Austro-Hun Empire was quite developed, its overall strength was not strong. Especially in terms of military strength, it could not be considered a powerful country at all.
As for the Kingdom of Bava, it was a powerful state in the Germanic Empire, second only to the Kingdom of Princes. Of course, compared to the Kingdom of Princes, the gap was still huge. However, if Liu Chuan could get the full support of the Kingdom of Bayaria, his throne would be extremely stable.
