"So what if you are a bodyguard? As long as you have interests, what can't be done?" Li Chen asked back.

Jian Xin sneered: "Forgive me for being stupid. I really can't see what benefits and benefits can be made by working as a bodyguard."

"What if this palace tells you that you can take this opportunity to develop the White Lotus Sect into the territory of Ningwang?"

As soon as these words were said, Jian Xin raised her eyebrows and showed a look of heartbeat.

He asked, "How do you say this?"

“It’s very simple.”

Li Chen smiled faintly and said, "The land of Ningwang is located in Gansu and Shaanxi. The people here are tough and have always been xenophobic. Neither Buddhism nor Taoism can extend their tentacles into it. But because of the bitter and cold place, it is particularly suitable for the development of the White Lotus Sect."

"The White Lotus Sect's teachings are in harmony in the world. Everyone is equal, and there is no distinction between high and low. Isn't this what the people in the bitter and cold places urgently need?"

Jian Xin looked at Li Chen with a look of surprise. He could not imagine that the prince actually knew the teachings of the White Lotus Sect so well.

Li Chen seemed to see what Jian Xin was thinking, and he said, "Only by knowing yourself and the others can you win a hundred battles. If I don't even know the teachings of the White Lotus Sect, how can I deal with you?"

Jian Xin's mouth twitched for a moment, and she didn't say anything. He was thinking carefully about the possibility that Li Chen said.

After a moment of silence, Jian Xin said: "It was not that the White Lotus Sect had not thought about the development of these bitter and cold places in the past, but the people in the Ningwang territories were strong and advocated martial arts. Moreover, the Ningwang has been operating in the fief for more than ten years, and the tentacles have already penetrated into all aspects of the fief. As long as the White Lotus Sect has a slight movement, the King of Pluto will strike thunder. How to solve this problem?"

"That's why I let you go."

Li Chen said seriously: "This time, I sent someone to the fiefdom of King Ning to check his taxes. The fiefdom of a prince who holds heavy troops has not checked taxes for more than ten years. Once it is investigated, it will be a big hole that has broken the sky. Do you think that King Ning cares more about me or you more at that time?"

"Tax check?" Jian Xin asked with a frown.

He really couldn't figure out what Li Chen would do to provoke King Ning.

Everyone knows that if you rashly check a prince or a prince who holds heavy troops and guards the frontier, it is no different from suicide.

"This is a matter between me and Ning Wang, you don't need to know too much."

Li Chen stood up and walked around the table, and came to Jian Xin and said, "If the land of King Ning has been calm, then the White Lotus Sect will naturally have no chance at all, but if King Ning's attention is all attracted by this palace, then isn't this an excellent opportunity for your White Lotus Sect?"

"What do you want me to do?" Jian Xin asked with her eyes narrowed slightly.

"Simple." Li Chen chuckled and said, "You only need to protect the people sent by this palace without any accidents and return safely, then your mission will be completed.

"As for the rest, what you do in the fief of King Ning, that's your business, and I will not interfere."

Jian Xin thought for a moment when she heard this, as if she was weighing the trade-offs.

Li Chen was not in a hurry, and waited quietly for him to think about it without urging him.

From the perspective of Jianxin and the White Lotus Sect, there is no harm in looking at this matter no matter how you look at it. Instead, it is all beneficial. Jianxin has no reason to refuse.

Sure enough, after half a cup of tea, Jian Xin looked up and asked, "When will we set off?"

Li Chen chuckled and said, "Now."
