Chapter 169: Xia Xingchen's Transformation
If it had been anyone else, even a strong man like Chen Ze, who was in the Hedao realm, would not have been able to transmit messages to Xia Xingchen across thousands of miles.
But Xia Changqing is no ordinary strong person.
After learning that his daughter might be in danger, he instantly covered the entire Da Qin Mansion with his spiritual consciousness, and soon searched for Xia Xingchen.
Otherwise, Xia Xingchen would not be able to respond to Xia Changqing.
At that time, Xia Xingchen told Jiang Feng that she had something to do, so she hurriedly found a remote place so that she could devote herself to the quarrel with her father.
If anyone can make Xia Changqing defeated, and even after being defeated, there is nothing he can do about it. Looking at the entire world, I am afraid that only Xia Xingchen can do it.
Every time he heard Xia Xingchen say "severing the relationship between father and daughter", the ruler who ruled the country with an iron fist would panic.
It seemed more terrifying than taking his life.
But when Xia Xingchen insisted on doing this, Xia Changqing couldn't do anything to her.
Since then, Xia Changqing has always let his spiritual consciousness cover the entire Yeling City, sensing Xia Xingchen's aura at any time.
As long as he felt the slightest fluctuation in Xia Xingchen's aura or encountered the slightest danger, he would rush there immediately.
This is one of the reasons why Xia Xingchen feels that her father has been monitoring her.
Of course, this perception is relatively vague.
It's impossible for Xia Changqing to sense everything Xia Xingchen does.
He would only notice when Xia Xingchen's aura fluctuated.
Otherwise, Xia Xingchen would not allow him to do this.
Moreover, with Xia Changqing's strength, this level of perception does not require much effort even if it is turned on around the clock.
Although Chen Ze didn't know what kind of quarrel broke out between the fierce father and daughter.
But judging from the results, it was obvious that Xia Changqing compromised.
This also made Chen Ze admire Xia Xingchen even more.
This little girl is so powerful that she can make that scary man bow his head and retreat!
But no matter what, Chen Ze always felt that if Xia Xingchen didn't have a powerful protector waiting by his side, it would still make people feel uneasy.
No matter what, Xia Xingchen is also a princess, and she is the most favored one among the princesses.
With such a rich body, and the current situation in the entire Zhuxia Kingdom shrouded in a heavy fog, how could she be left alone with no strong defense around her?
What if the lord of the country is negligent for a moment and makes a mistake?
Xia Changqing is very strong, but no matter how strong a person is, there will always be times when he is at odds with himself.
So Chen Ze thought about it for a while, and finally advised Xia Xingchen: "Ninth Princess, I know you want to be independent and like freedom, but -"
However, Chen Ze was only halfway through what he said when Xia Xingchen interrupted him as if he already knew what he wanted to say next.
"Uncle Chen, I know what you mean."
"After I refused to send more manpower to my father, I told him that it is enough for you, Uncle Chen, to be by my side."
When he said this, Xia Xingchen didn't look at Chen Ze's face at all, but turned his head to the side, and his tone seemed to have nothing to do with her.
But Xia Xingchen's words made Chen Ze instantly stunned.
So much so that he even forgot to close his wide-open mouth, and the words that came to his mouth seemed to be leaking and dissipated in the air.
"Sir, Her Royal Highness the Princess actually asked...that I continue to be her protector?"
You know, during the three years he has been secretly guarding Xia Xingchen, whenever Xia Xingchen found out about him, he would inevitably lose his temper.
Several times, Xia Xingchen, who was extremely angry, even wanted to fight him.
Therefore, it is not difficult to understand how surprised Chen Ze was when Xia Xingchen took the initiative to ask him to be her protector.
However, after Chen Ze was silent for a long time, he still stammered and asked: "But, your Royal Highness, I have not received the order assigned from above!"
Why didn't anyone inform me about such a big thing?
And to put it this way, hasn’t Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess been without any guards around her these past few days?
Thinking of this, Chen Ze couldn't help but shudder.
If something goes wrong with Xia Xingchen in the past two or three days, it will be Chen Ze's responsibility!
Death ten times, no, one hundred times is not enough compensation!
Although Xia Xingchen was standing in front of him now, Chen Ze couldn't help but feel scared.
"I told my father that for similar matters in the future, I can directly convey orders to you, without him or anyone else taking care of it."
As if he saw Chen Ze's thoughts, Xia Xingchen added: "Besides, didn't I come to inform you?"
After finishing speaking, Xia Xingchen tilted his head to the side again.
When she made the decision to "continue to let Chen Ze be her protector", even Xia Xingchen herself was actually very surprised.
Perhaps during the three years when this old man stayed by her side day and night like a servant, Xia Xingchen had become accustomed to his presence.
It seemed that even Xia Xingchen herself did not realize that she had unknowingly regarded this protector as a role similar to her own grandfather.
For Xia Xingchen, this feeling is also an emotion missing in her life.
It is definitely not something that a servant, slave or attendant can give her.
Of course, Chen Ze didn't know what Xia Xingchen was thinking.
Otherwise, he would definitely fly into the sky happily and do some somersaults and rolls in the sky.
Being treated as a grandfather by Her Royal Highness the Ninth Princess...doesn't he become the father of the king of the country, Xia Changqing?
This is a huge advantage!
Of course, even if Chen Ze knew about it, he would not dare to let any such "rebellious" thoughts appear in his mind.
Otherwise, if Xia Changqing knew about it, I'm afraid it would be a wedding or a funeral.
However, even if Chen Ze didn't know what Xia Xingchen was thinking, he still felt flattered.
After listening to Xia Xingchen's words, all his doubts in the past few days seemed to be explained.
No wonder I haven't received any instructions from the king or Xia Wu for a long time.
It turns out that the Ninth Princess had already informed her in advance!
No wonder Xia Changqing simply reprimanded himself and did not impose any punishment.
Although the episode in the riot was an accident and not Chen Ze's fault, something went terribly wrong under his hands.
Based on Xia Changqing's usual behavior in the past, even if he doesn't die, he will at least lose some skin.
But apart from receiving verbal reprimands and warnings, he did not receive any substantive punishment.
Even if Xia Xingchen didn't mention it just now, Chen Ze could guess that the Ninth Princess must have saved him!
