The little waste in the interstellar marriage urgency does not want to be the Marshal's concubi
Chapter 53 Live a Good Life
"The Marshal treats me well? Then today the Chen family and the Chris family are sending people to the Marshal, and you can see it. Sober up and say that the Shen family plans to directly join the Marshal and go against the major families?
Or are you throwing me a smokescreen so you can all join forces to overthrow the empire? Tell me, if you explain everything clearly today, I'll know what to do next."
Tianjiu, whose hands are disabled, really can't stand this kind of parents.
It seems that as long as the children don't know what's happening, they are protected. But it is the most painful when they only know half of what's happening.
"How can you talk nonsense, kid? It's a good thing your family let you follow the Marshal. It's better than dating some ugly people outside."
"Please get to the point and don't change the subject. I'm just asking you what the Shen family is planning."
Tianjiu was too lazy to discuss these minor details.
"Your second uncle is planning to marry your cousin to Chris's granddaughter."
It was indeed difficult for Father Shen to speak, but this was the most important news he had come to tell her today. The family had to prepare for the wedding, and everyone was busy, and she couldn't not attend.
"Big cousin! You guys..." Tianjiu was speechless for a moment. He was so angry that he wanted to slam the table, but his hands were not working.
"Why is my second uncle so cowardly? He's trying to invest in two ways and straddle two boats. He'll eventually capsize!"
Tianjiu really didn't expect that in the top family circle in the entire galaxy, there would be a head of the family with such a lack of vision and strategy.
Although there are many people in the aristocratic circle who are stronger than the Shen family, looking at the entire galaxy, is that a world that ordinary people can touch!
Their Shen family is also a family standing at the top of humanity. How could they do such a stupid thing?
Or is it that there is really not much difference in people's qualifications? Sometimes, looking powerful is just a blessing of status and position.
Without the identity of the head of the Shen family, he is just a vulgar old man.
Tianjiu was a little sad. Her eldest cousin lost her father at a young age, and her mother abandoned her and disappeared. Now she works as a planner in the Tourism Department. She is cool and simple, and she insists on getting her married.
It would be fine if it was someone she liked, but what kind of person is Chris's little daughter?
There must be some genetic heritage in Chris's family; everyone loves to fight for power, forming cliques and being cunning. She was clearly a junior in school, but she acted so arrogantly.
No one in their circle plays with her.
Tianjiu even thought of Tom from Chris's family who scolded her last time. It turned out that none of them were good people.
"Do you think the Emperor and the Marshal will lose? Seeking a marriage alliance with Chris... then what should I do..."
Tianjiu felt like crying but had no tears. Her family made such a decision, and she still expected the marshal to be nice to her?
"I can't do anything about your second uncle's decision. The Lei family's grandson has been dismissed and imprisoned for involvement in smuggling. The Emperor has ordered a thorough investigation by the Security Bureau. Several of the family's businesses are threatened. We must take some action before we can plan for the future."
"Why not just surrender to the emperor? Giving your property to the emperor is better than letting it be swindled away by those old swindlers. Didn't the Li family contact Chris? You saw the result."
Tianjiu could see it clearly, so how could these veterans in politics not understand it?
"Xiaojiu, this is not how things work. The Shen family is the one that sticks out. If we surrender to His Majesty now, all the families will unite and the first one they want to destroy will be us."
Haha, I have to say, Tianjiu was really convinced for a moment.
Yes, how can His Majesty the Emperor protect the Shen family? He will only be happy to see it happen, after all, he wants to reduce the power of the vassal states.
But the current practice is tantamount to feeding the tiger with one's own body. The more one cuts, the weaker one's own strength becomes. What's the point of fighting if only a skeleton is left in the end?
Perhaps it meant something to her second uncle, who was just the skeleton. The others were the flesh and blood he gave to feed the tiger.
If you think it through, you won’t be so angry anymore.
But I still don't want my destiny to be controlled by others.
"Dad, what are your plans and backup plans?"
After all, these are her relatives who have lived in this world for 18 years. She doesn't want to care about what happens to her second uncle, but she can't let go of her parents.
"So don't worry about what your second uncle does in the future. Living a good life with the Marshal is more important than anything else."
Father Shen said earnestly that Tianjiu really wanted to open the door and send the guests away, but who cares that her hand is broken.
"Dad, it's not easy to meet you, so please say something useful." Tianjiu sighed deeply.
How could they have the nerve to say such empty words about living a good life? Someone please teach her how to live a good life with the Marshal.
If she dared to touch him today, he would throw her two miles away with a spin kick.
"No matter what, you can't let the girl from the Chen family take the lead."
"I don't have much time, so I'll go back first. The communicator is encrypted, so it's easy to contact. Don't worry about home, just take care of yourself."
Father Shen finally patted Tianjiu's little head and left. When he waved goodbye at the door, Tianjiu felt a lump in his throat.
He wanted her to know nothing, so that if the Shen family failed one day, it would have nothing to do with her.
Tianjiu knew that this was her parents' wish, but she was an adult and had lived two lives, so she really wanted to help.
As for her father, he wanted to see her and the Marshal live happily together, but she didn't know if he could do it.
She originally wanted to just sit back and wait for an opportunity to bring the marshal and the heroine together, and then retire.
But now... maybe the Shen family really needs this tall person.
When Yuan Xu came back, he saw the little girl leaning on the sofa in a depressed mood.
There were two glasses of water on the table, one was half drunk, but the one in front of the little girl was untouched.
Yuan Xu wasn't used to this kind of Tianjiu. Normally, she was sweet and cute, but also a bit mischievous, sometimes clever, sometimes confused. But no matter what, she always smiled cheerfully, truly like a carefree child.
But the little girl now clearly has some worries. It's not the worries of not being able to eat good food or go to concerts, but the worries of adults.
Yuan Xu walked forward, startling the dazed Tianjiu, then sat next to her, raised the water glass and brought it to her mouth.
Ah, he was really surprised, and his expression became more complicated.
Yuan Xu's discomfort finally subsided.
"Your hands aren't working well, so drink like a kitten."
Ah, it turned out that in the eyes of the Marshal she was not even a human being.
Tianjiu pursed her lips and drank some water with a wronged look on her face. She was really thirsty.
"Can we go home now?" She wanted to rest. This day had been too difficult.
Yuan Xu was silent for a moment, then looked at the little girl and slowly spoke: "The Queen has chosen the daughter of the Chen family as her concubine. I have asked her to return to the Marshal's Mansion first."
It was expected. I just didn't see what words the Queen used to accomplish this, which was a bit regrettable.
Tianjiu nodded to show that he understood.
Yuan Xu thought the little girl would have some reaction, but in the end there was no reaction.
"She is a concubine, but you have no status."
Yuan Xu felt that he needed to remind her.
"Then, how about giving me a position in the guards?"
Yuan Xu rolled his eyes at her, stood up, picked her up, and walked out without even looking at her.
He felt that this heartless girl was not only heartless, but also didn't have him in her heart.
What is sadness? It has nothing to do with her.
I'm afraid all the sorrow will be left to him.
