Su Lan married Qin Hu?

This matter contains a lot of information.

"If I remember correctly, Senior Su Lan is just an illegitimate daughter of the Su family, right?" Zhao Wan'er asked from the side. "Qin Hu is the Third Prince, Qin Ming's younger brother."

If Qin Ming really does inherit the position of Star Emperor in the future, then Qin Hu's identity will be extraordinary.

Logically speaking, it's impossible for him to marry Senior Su Lan, right?

The two are indeed very different in status.

"I heard that Qin Hu had met Senior Su Lan before and fell in love with her at first sight; so this time, when he wanted to arrange a marriage with the Su family, Qin Hu specifically asked for Su Lan."

I was originally a guest at the Su family's house, and I witnessed Su Lan being held captive in the courtyard by the Su family.

If it weren't for my special status, they might have kicked me out immediately.

"Senior Su Lan has already resigned herself to her fate, but I... I saw her suicide note!" Xue Xiaoxiao said in horror.

"A suicide note! How could you leave Senior Su Lan alone and run away like that!" Zhao Wan'er said worriedly.

Xue Xiaoxiao comforted her, "Don't worry about that. Senior Su Lan puts the Su family first, so even if she tries to kill herself, she won't do it on Su family territory."

I estimate it was on her wedding day, when she left the Purple Perilla Starfield! At that time, Senior Sister Su Lan's death would have nothing to do with the Su family anymore.

How could I possibly stand by and watch Senior Su Lan fall into a fire pit?

So I came out to think of a solution. I thought of you, Wan'er and Zhao Chen. I think you should have a solution!

I came here to find you!

"We absolutely must save Senior Su Lan!"

Xue Xiaoxiao looked at Zhao Chen pleadingly.

Zhao Wan'er looked anxiously at her brother, but she stopped herself from speaking.

She cares a lot about Senior Su Lan, who is arguably the closest person to her besides her own family.

She was able to graduate smoothly at North Star Academy thanks to the care of her senior, Su Lan.

She treated Su Lan, her senior, like her own older sister.

Can......

The situation is special now; the one who wants to marry Senior Su Lan is the Third Prince, Qin Hu.

The two sides are the Prince Party and the Purple Su Star Region, both of which are currently the giants of the Star Glory Empire.

In comparison, a mere Dragon Lord might seem insignificant.

If you get involved in this matter, you might accidentally implicate the Xiaolong Galaxy and the entire Zhao family.

Therefore, Zhao Wan'er was in a very conflicted state of mind at this moment.

She wanted to ask Zhao Chen for help, but she was worried that asking him would put pressure on him.

"Has the date been set for the Third Prince Qin Hu's marriage to Senior Sister Su Lan?" Zhao Chen asked.

Mid-May!

After all, it's a marriage alliance between two major powers, so we need to be well prepared.

"I heard that the Third Prince Qin Hu will personally lead a royal fleet to fetch the bride," Xue Xiaoxiao replied.

Zhao Chen's expression softened slightly; there was plenty of time.

【Triggered system quest 'Rescue Senior Su Lan'】

Mission objective: In front of the Third Prince Qin Hu, steal away his fiancée, Su Lan.

Task Rewards: 500,000 System Points, 50 Task Points

Every time something happens, the system pops up, as if it's not exciting enough.

In front of the Third Prince Qin Hu?

That means they're going to snatch the bride right in front of the royal army's fleet.

That was a slap in the face to the princes' faction.

"Leave this matter to me, you don't need to worry."

"Senior Su Lan is, after all, a comrade who fought alongside us. I can't just watch her fall into a fire pit," Zhao Chen said solemnly.

"Really!" Zhao Wan'er looked at Zhao Chen excitedly.

"When have I ever gone back on my word?" Zhao Chen teased.

Zhao Wan'er finally breathed a sigh of relief. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Xue Xiaoxiao was somewhat worried: "This...don't you have any plans? You know you're going to be facing the Prince's Party!"

The Starry Empire is now at its zenith!

"Don't worry, there's nothing my brother can't do." Zhao Wan'er now has complete faith in her brother.

After all, if outsiders knew what the Xiaolong Legion had done, they probably wouldn't believe it.

Control the Reef Starfield, ambush the Warhammer Fleet, and launch [N O V E L I G H T] an expedition to the Great Horde Prime Star!

"So what are your plans next?" Zhao Chen asked Xue Xiaoxiao.

Xue Xiaoxiao's eyes darted around, and she grabbed Zhao Wan'er's wrist, saying, "Since you've decided to save Senior Su Lan, I have nowhere else to go."

I'll stay here with you for now.

It just so happens that Wan'er and I haven't seen each other for a long time.

Zhao Wan'er looked at Zhao Chen, asking for his opinion.

Zhao Chen nodded: "It's fine to stay. You can just stay with Wan'er."

"Thank you, Commander! If there's anything I can help with, I'm happy to do it! I'm an outstanding graduate of the Northern Starship Military Academy!" Xue Xiaoxiao said proudly.

"You must be tired from your long journey. Why don't you go to the banquet and have a good meal?" Zhao Chen pointed to the banquet venue.

Seeing these delicious dishes, Xue Xiaoxiao didn't stand on ceremony and immediately started eating.

Zhao Wan'er stood beside Zhao Chen without moving, because she noticed that her brother had something to say to her.

"Xiaoxiao can stay and follow you. The T3 Phantom Assassin is no longer a secret interstellar warship."

As long as she doesn't have access to core technologies or the classified information of our JF-17 Thunder Legion, it's fine.

"Staying in the bridge with you will also allow me to assist you," Zhao Chen instructed.

"Okay." Zhao Wan'er nodded; she could still distinguish between what was important and what was not.

"Speaking of which, Xue Xiaoxiao has always been a bit mysterious. Where is she from?" Zhao Chen asked.

Zhao Wan'er thought for a moment: "If I remember correctly, she seemed to say that she came from a neutral force within the Galactic Alliance, apart from the three major empires."

"Neutral forces?" Zhao Chen was somewhat curious; he could inquire about it later.

"Go and keep Xue Xiaoxiao company," Zhao Chen said.

"OK."

Zhao Wan'er left.

Zhao Chen lay back down on his recliner. The Prince Party's purpose in having the Third Prince Qin Hu marry Su Lan from the Su family of the Zisu Star Region was quite obvious.

The intention was to strengthen the relationship between the two parties through marriage.

After all, the situation of the Star Empire is very complicated right now, like a planetary continent that could split apart at any moment.

He was kept alive entirely by the fact that the Star Emperor, who was seriously ill and barely clinging to life, was on his last breath.

Once Emperor Xingyao passes away and the Second Prince Qin Ming succeeds him, he will be unable to directly control the power of the entire Xingyao Empire.

When that happens, various forces outside the empire will be mobilized, and the Starry Empire will be in danger.

Therefore, it seems impossible for Zhao Chen, an enemy of the Prince Party, to allow Qin Hu to marry Su Lan smoothly.

"I was just wondering if there was a chance to alert them, and here it is, delivered right to my doorstep," Zhao Chen said with a sneer.
