But then, Shu Tianxing returned to normal, and said with a forced smile: "Commander Xia, my daughter is still too young and not sensible. In that situation, I am afraid that she will offend the dignitaries, which will not be beautiful."
"Shu Tianxing, you don't think that this commander-in-chief is here to discuss things with you, do you?"
Commander Xia's face immediately darkened, "The Seventeenth Prince has given an order to send your daughter to a banquet. If you dare to disobey, do you think you can shoulder this responsibility? Or do you think I can shoulder it?
This responsibility?”
"Commander Xia, this subordinate is not disobeying on purpose. In fact, his daughter is sick today and has gone to rest early. Even if we wake her up now, her sick face will bring bad luck to the nobles at the banquet.
."
Shu Tianxing quickly defended.
"snort!"
The commander-in-chief of Xia sneered, "You don't need to tell me this here. It has been done several times, and there are various reasons every time. It doesn't matter if you don't want your daughter to go. You can explain it to the Seventeenth Prince later.
, when the time comes, you will bear the wrath of the Seventeenth Prince yourself."
"Walk!"
Commander Xia waved his hand, ignored Shu Tianxing's suddenly pale complexion, and walked away with his men.
"Brother Xing."
Shu Tianxing's wife quickly walked up, supported Shu Tianxing, and asked in a low voice, "Is it the same thing as last time?"
"That's right."
With a sad look on his face, Shu Tianxing walked back to the yard with his wife.
"Dad..."
Although the two daughters were ignorant, they could still feel the oppressive atmosphere between their parents. For a moment, the whole yard became quiet, and there was no longer the laughter and laughter just now.
Especially the older daughter, who could vaguely understand the content of the argument between Commander Xia and Shu Tianxing just now, lowered her head, tears welling up in her eyes, as if she wanted to cry but didn't dare.
"Aling, don't be afraid. My father and mother will definitely protect you."
Shu Tianxing touched the top of his eldest daughter's head and comforted her softly.
"Um."
The eldest daughter nodded obediently.
"You can take your sister into the house to sleep."
Shu Tianxing said.
After his two daughters entered the back room, Shu Tianxing turned to Su Chen and said, "I'm sorry, my benefactor, for disturbing your interest and making you laugh."
"There's nothing to apologize for."
Su Chen patted Shu Tianxing on the shoulder and said, "If there is anything I can do to help, just ask."
"Thank you so much, my benefactor, but I'm afraid there's nothing you can do about this, my benefactor."
Shu Tianxing shook his head bitterly and sighed.
"Although I may not be able to help you, if you have any troubles, you can tell me. Is that what Commander Xia wants to force you to do?"
Su Chen asked.
"well……"
When Shu Tianxing saw Su Chen asking, he couldn't help but sigh, and started chatting, saying, "If it was just Commander Xia's wish, that would be fine. But in fact, Commander Xia is just a person responsible for spreading the word. The real person behind the scenes is
The man is the seventeenth prince."
"Seventeenth Prince?"
Su Chen asked.
"That's right, benefactor, you must have been in Yaohai Kingdom for a short time. This seventeenth prince is of royal blood. The current emperor has several younger brothers. This
Several younger brothers gave birth to a lot of sons, and they were all named princes, and the seventeenth prince was one of them."
Shu Tianxing sighed, "This seventeenth prince is usually very popular with the Holy Emperor, so he is particularly powerful. He...he has taken a liking to Al Ling and wants Al Ling to be his concubine."
A Ling is the nickname of Shu Tianxing's eldest daughter.
Su Chen frowned and was about to say something when Shu Tianxing continued, "Benefactor, although I am just a commander of the City Guards and not a high-ranking official, I am not greedy for wealth and do not want my daughter to go
To be a concubine for a noble man. What’s more, the seventeenth prince loves to hang out in brothels and places with fireworks, so he is definitely not a good match for a woman."
Su Chen nodded. To be honest, if there are really royal family members and dignitaries like the Seventeenth Prince, there will definitely be many people who are willing to get rich and powerful. Everyone has their own ambitions, but Shu Tianxing is obviously not like that.
people.
"Since you don't want to, then refuse. Since the Seventeenth Prince is powerful, he will not be short of women."
Su Chen said.
Shu Tianxing smiled bitterly and said: "I originally thought that was the case, but the Seventeenth Prince felt that I would lose face by rejecting him. He also said that no family has ever rejected him. Therefore, if he gets angry, he must
Our family cannot be forced to submit."
"In the past few times, the Seventeenth Prince asked his subordinates to deliver the message, and asked Aling to accompany him for a drink, but I pushed him away for various reasons. This time, he asked Commander Xia to deliver the message. Commander Xia is
My boss, if I refuse, I will lose the face of Commander Xia, and I'm afraid my life in the City Guards will not be easy in the future."
Shu Tianxing confided it all in one breath, which made him feel more comfortable.
However, when he thought about Commander Xia's visit just now, he was still depressed, and his face no longer had the same smile as before.
"It turns out that this didn't happen once or twice." Su Chen thought thoughtfully, the seventeenth prince was quite perseverant.
Shu Tianxing said bitterly: "The Seventeenth Prince has now begun to ask Commander Xia to put pressure on me. This is a signal. It shows that the Seventeenth Prince has no idea of ​​giving up at all. Moreover, he has begun to exert further pressure on me.
Pressed."
"I'm afraid that he will eventually lose his patience, become angry, and directly force him. By then, I will be weak and I may not be able to protect Aling." Shu Tianxing added.
"Don't worry, Commander Shu, there will definitely be a solution to this matter."
Su Chen comforted him a few words, but it still couldn't make the gloomy look between Shu Tianxing's brows dissipate.
"Commander Shu, I'm leaving first."
Su Chen knew that Commander Xia's visit had put great psychological pressure on Shu Tianxing. Now Shu Tianxing should be in no mood to eat or drink anymore.
"Benefactor, I will give it to you."
Shu Tianxing followed him outside the hospital.
"Commander Shu, take good care of your family. On the Seventeenth Prince's side, there will be a road to the mountain."
Su Chen said.
"Thank you so much, my benefactor, for your comfort."
Shu Tianxing forced a smile and said.
"Commander Shu, stay."
Su Chen waved his hand, and his figure disappeared in the night.
Shu Tianxing was stunned for a while, then turned around and returned home.
The wife brought over a cup of hangover tea. When she saw Shu Tianxing frowning, she comforted him: "Brother Xing, maybe things are not that bad. The Seventeenth Prince probably won't force us. After all, he is a member of the royal family.
People, the royal family still has to show some dignity when doing things, and you can't do anything random." But then, Shu Tianxing returned to normal and forced a smile and said: "General Xia, my subordinate's daughter is still too young and not sensible.
In such an occasion, I am afraid that it will offend the dignitaries, which will make it unsightly."
"Shu Tianxing, you don't think that this commander-in-chief is here to discuss things with you, do you?"
Commander Xia's face immediately darkened, "The Seventeenth Prince has given an order to send your daughter to a banquet. If you dare to disobey, do you think you can shoulder this responsibility? Or do you think I can shoulder it?
