Chapter 1204 Don’t you want to develop the White Lotus Sect?
"So what if you are a bodyguard? As long as there is profit, what can't you do?" Li Chen asked in return.
Jian Xin sneered and said, "Forgive me for being stupid, but I really can't see the benefits of being a bodyguard."
"What if I tell you that you can take this opportunity to develop the White Lotus Sect into Prince Ning's territory?"
As soon as these words came out, Jian Xin raised her eyebrows, and she really showed a heart-beating expression.
He asked: "How do you say this?"
"It's very simple."
Li Chen smiled lightly and said: "Ningwang's territory is located in the Gansu and Shaanxi regions. The people here are strong and have always been exclusive. Neither Buddhism nor Taoism can extend their tentacles. However, this place is particularly suitable because of the bitter cold.
The development of your White Lotus Sect."
"The teachings of the White Lotus Sect are for the unity of the world, that all living beings are equal, and there is no distinction between high and low. Isn't this what the people in these bitter and cold places urgently need?"
Jian Xin looked at Li Chen in astonishment. He could not imagine that the prince knew so much about the teachings of the White Lotus Sect.
Li Chen seemed to see what Jian Xin was thinking. He said: "Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you survive a hundred battles. If I don't even know the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, how can I deal with you?"
The corner of Jian Xin's mouth twitched, but she did not speak. He was thinking carefully about the possibility that Li Chen said.
After a moment of silence, Jian Xin said: "It's not that the White Lotus Sect never thought about developing in these bitter and cold places before, but the people in King Ning's territory are strong and fierce, advocating force, and King Ning has been operating in the territory for more than ten years, and his tentacles have already penetrated into the entire territory.
In all aspects, as long as the White Lotus Sect makes the slightest move, Pluto will strike with thunder, how to solve this matter?"
"That's why I let you go."
Li Chen said seriously: "I sent people to Prince Ning's fiefdom this time to check his taxes. The fiefdom of a prince with a heavy army has not checked taxes for more than ten years. Once checked, it will be a stabbing.
Big hole in the sky, when the time comes, will Prince Ning care more about me or you?"
"Tax inspection?" Jian Xin asked with a frown.
He really couldn't figure out why Li Chen was going to provoke Prince Ning when he was living a good life.
Everyone knows that rashly checking the taxes of a prince, or a prince who has a heavy army and guards the frontier, is no different from committing suicide.
"This is a matter between me and Prince Ning. You don't need to know too much."
Li Chen stood up, walked around the table, came in front of Jian Xin and said, "If the situation in Prince Ning's territory remains calm, then the White Lotus Sect will naturally have no chance at all. But if Prince Ning's attention is completely attracted by this palace, wouldn't this be true?"
The perfect opportunity for your White Lotus Sect?"
"What do you want me to do?" Jian Xin asked, narrowing her eyes slightly.
"Simple." Li Chen chuckled and said, "You only have to protect the people sent by me from any accidents and return them safely, then your mission will be considered completed.
"As for the rest, what you do in Prince Ning's fiefdom is your business and I will not interfere."
Jian Xin thought for a moment after hearing this, and seemed to be weighing it.
Li Chen was not in a hurry and waited quietly for him to think it over without urging him.
From the perspective of Jian Xin and the White Lotus Sect, there are no disadvantages in this matter. Instead, it is all benefits. Jian Xin has no reason to refuse.
Sure enough, after half a cup of tea, Jian Xin raised her head and asked, "When will we set off?"
Li Chen chuckled and said, "Now."
Li Chen turned around and walked towards his seat and said: "I ordered Zhou Ping'an to be sent here immediately."
