Try:

\version "2.14.2"

fN =
#(define-music-function (parser location fretp) (string?)
    (make-music
        'TextScriptEvent
        'direction
        -1
        'text
        (markup #:line (#:box (#:italic fretp)))))

{
        <c' e' g' >_\markup { \box \italic { 8 } }
        <c' e' g'>-\fN "8"
}
