@freelance no she definitely has a dick
The issue is that they are trying to make a comedy more than a political drama.......Premise seems interesting, but doesn't have much substance behind the novelty. It doesn't hold up under basic logic. The king should be used to handling obstinate people, but he clearly has no idea how to handle his children. It is like he is unfamiliar with the word 'ultimatum', which no actual ruler would not be aware of.
If princes and princesses are being kept in the royal building, they are being either groomed for political marriages or trained for specific purposes. The crown heir would be closely monitored and wouldn't be allowed to streak. And if they did, they would be imprisoned while being educated while their position is passed to the next one who should have been also trained for being a backup heir. The third prince's health should have been easily evaluated by any trained physician.
Lastly, there was no reason for the fourth illegitimate prince to let loaf around.
Being king is still technically a job position that people have to be trained for.
If the king was intelligent, he'd automatically thrust the role of heir on the fourth prince, have the first prince the head of the military, the second prince as minister of magic and logistics, and the third prince as head of finances. The caveat would be that until the fourth prince had an heir of his own, the others would automatically fill the role if and only if he died and his death was their fault. Thus the first prince would ensure the military protected the heir from foreign military, the second would protect the heir from magic and assassins, and the third prince would ensure that the populace doesn't rise up to overthrow them.
Who better the protect the king than the ones next in line who don't want the job?
