Tianyu Alchemy Lord

But immediately, Shu Tianxing returned to normal, and said with a forced smile: "Commander Xia, my daughter is 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 matters 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 you 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 have to tell me this here. I've done it 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 are ignorant, they can also feel the repressive atmosphere between their parents. Suddenly, the whole courtyard 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 you, my benefactor, are powerless in this matter."

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, opened up the conversation, and said, "If it was just Commander Xia's wish, then it would be fine. But in fact, Commander Xia is just a person responsible for spreading the word, and the real person behind the scenes is The person is the seventeenth prince."

"Seventeenth Prince?"

Su Chen asked.

"Yes, benefactor, you must have been in Yaohai Kingdom for a short time. These seventeenth princes are of royal blood. The current emperor has several younger brothers. These younger brothers gave birth to a lot of sons, and they were all named princes. The Seventeenth Prince is one of them.”

Shu Tianxing sighed, "This seventeenth prince is usually very popular with the Holy Emperor, so he is extra 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 Being a concubine to a noble man. What's more, the Seventeenth Prince loves to hang out in brothels and fireworks, so he is definitely not a good match for a woman."

Su Chen nodded. To be honest, if there are royal family members and dignitaries like the Seventeenth Prince who are interested in him, 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 that kind of person.

"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 had ever rejected him. Therefore, when he got angry, he must We can’t let our family submit.”

"In the past few times, the Seventeenth Crown 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. 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.

But, thinking about Xia just now
