1879 Choosing a Husband

"Please tell me about Siyu, Princess," Chu Yunfan said without hesitation.

"I didn't expect you to be such a devoted person, General." Princess Yun Yang smiled when she saw Chu Yunfan's anxiety.

At this moment, Princess Yun Yang looked at Chu Yunfan, who no longer looked like the invincible figure who had killed everyone. He was just an ordinary man who missed his beloved.

"That's right. I was asked by Siyu to meet you. Fortunately, you're not a heartless person. Otherwise, I wouldn't have tolerated you," Princess Yun Yang said indifferently.

Her words were a bit cold as she spoke. There was actually a pressuring aura. However, this pressuring aura only lasted for an instant before it disappeared without a trace.

However, Chu Yunfan didn't doubt her. Someone who could make Tang Siyu personally come must be someone she trusted. Therefore, Chu Yunfan didn't mind Princess Yun Yang's attitude.

"I don't know where Siyu is right now. I only know that she's under the Elder Princess' tutelage, but I don't know the exact situation. Why can't she come and see me?" Chu Yunfan asked.

He knew that only the eldest daughter of the current generation could take on the position of the Elder Princess. In Grand Xia, there were many people who participated in the fight for the throne. It was not considered taboo. One could imagine how much power the Elder Princess had in Grand Xia.

In the book, "The World," he had read that among Grand Xia's past Elder Princesses, there had been more than one Elder Princess who had the power to rule the country.

When the king became muddle-headed, the Elder Princess had helped him to become the king. This would become the benchmark for the later Elder Princesses.

"Because she has no choice." Princess Yun Yang looked at Chu Yunfan with a burning gaze.

"Involuntary? Someone's forcing her?" When Chu Yunfan heard this, his eyes flashed with a terrifying light. In an instant, a terrifying aura erupted from his body.

However, he immediately restrained his raging aura.

"May I ask what happened, Princess?" Chu Yunfan asked.

"You and Marquis Huntian are having a feud, but do you know who Marquis Huntian relies on in the court?" Princess Yun Yang glanced at Chu Yunfan.

"I don't." Chu Yunfan shook his head.

After all, he had only been in Grand Xia for a short time, so he didn't know many things. There were no records in "The World." In a sense, this was the so-called lack of foundation.

"Then I'll get straight to the point. Marquis Huntian was an attendant in the Eastern Palace before he joined the army."

Princess Yun Yang said a term that made Chu Yunfan's eyelids twitch. Of course, he knew what it meant to be an attendant in the Eastern Palace.

The Eastern Palace belonged to the crown prince, and the attendants in the Eastern Palace were naturally under the crown prince. Every generation of kings would choose some of the most outstanding talents for the crown prince to study. These talents were either from the ten great sects or from the various aristocratic families in the court. Even the commoners were outstanding people. Each of them was the best among the best among their peers.

These people were often the backbone of the important officials after the crown prince ascended the throne. Therefore, most of the attendants were the most trusted people of the crown prince. In other words, Li Qianyuan was one of the crown prince's subordinates.

Even if Chu Yunfan was ignorant, he knew what this meant. If it was only Li Qianyuan, it would not be a big deal. However, behind him stood the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, who was the future king. Among the many princes, the one with the greatest possibility of succession was the one with the most powerful supporters.

However, Chu Yunfan also understood a little. If there was no support from such a behemoth, how could Li Qianyuan be one step ahead of everyone to enter the Creation Stage and then enter the second Creation Stage first?

However, Chu Yunfan was only stunned for a moment. Even if it was the crown prince of the Eastern Palace, Chu Yunfan would never compromise on this issue.

"Is this related to the crown prince?" Chu Yunfan's expression became colder and colder as if it could freeze.

"There is indeed some relationship. My aunt, the Elder Princess, has yet to express her stance, and many people want to obtain her support," Princess Yun Yang said.

Chu Yunfan instantly understood the relationship between them. No wonder Li Qianyuan wanted to kill him, especially when there was no enmity between the two sides.

Now he understood everything. It must be because of Tang Siyu. At that time, Li Qianyuan probably thought that it was just to get rid of an insignificant person. He didn't even need to go out himself or his followers. He just needed to spread the news, and there were many people willing to work for him.

The truth was similar to what he had thought. Many people had indeed received the news. Who was Marquis Huntian? He was the number one person among the younger generation of the current dynasty. It could be said that there was no one he could not kill.

Naturally, many people wanted to kill Chu Yunfan to please Li Qianyuan. However, they had underestimated Chu Yunfan's tenacity. Those people had died in Chu Yunfan's hands one after another. Even now, Chu Yunfan had grown from a small figure who was not worth mentioning at the beginning to an existence that was enough to arm-wrestle with Li Qianyuan.

A general of Grand Xia had tens of thousands of elites under his command. Although he could not be considered an important figure, he was definitely not as insignificant as he was at the beginning.

"Could it be that the Elder Princess has restricted Siyu's movements?" When Chu Yunfan thought of this, his eyes were filled with killing intent.

Even if the other party was the Elder Princess, Chu Yunfan would never allow such a thing to happen.

"Auntie treats Siyu sincerely and treats her as her last disciple. Now, Siyu is in seclusion in the imperial family's secret realm. Tsk, tsk. Even I have a hard time getting the chance to enter that place. If it wasn't for Auntie's insistence, Siyu wouldn't have had the chance." There was a hint of envy in Princess Yun Yang's voice.

Knowing that Tang Siyu was fine, Chu Yunfan heaved a sigh of relief.

"However, Auntie wants to choose a husband for Siyu. This news has already been leaked. Once Siyu comes out of seclusion, she may have to choose a husband among the geniuses of the world," Princess Yun Yang said, "Now you know why Li Qianyuan wants to target you. He wants this opportunity, especially for many people who are interested in the throne. This is an opportunity to build a relationship with my aunt.

"After all, Siyu quill be my aunt's successor. Whoever marries her will naturally receive my aunt's full support."
