Different from the efforts he expended in organizing this battle before, although it was difficult at the time, Li Chen always had a way to think of it.
But now, Li Chen really feels that there are not many options left to think of.
The only solution at the moment is to wait until this battle is over before dealing with it.
Li Chen, who felt that his hands and feet were completely constrained, finally realized again the helplessness of being the head of a household.
It is refreshing to have great power, but if you want this power to remain untouched, you must pay a price and consideration that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
No matter what decision Li Chen makes now, there are too many things to take into account and consider.
He now also slowly understands why in his previous life he always felt that there were so many unfair and unsatisfactory things in society. The people above him seemed to be unable to see it and just ignored it. He must be a bad official. But now it seems that it is not that the people above him can't see it.
But they have seen too much, too deeply. Many problems affect the whole body at once. The whole country is a game of chess. Most of the time, it is better to stay still than to move.
After exhaling a breath, Li Chen softened his tone and said: "Let's record those people in the book first, and wait for me to deal with it personally."
Li Chen rarely compromises with his subordinates, but this time, Li Chen made an exception.
Whether it is Cheng Fuzhao or Zou Qingyuan in front of him, the limits of their abilities are right in front of them. Facing the chaos in the fiefdom, they have no ability to solve it. No matter how difficult it is for Li Chen to force others into trouble, it is as if he is looking for a reason to kill them.
Zou Qingyuan also felt Li Chen's helplessness. He knelt down to salute Li Chen and said in a trembling voice: "I am incompetent."
"It's not that you are incompetent, it's that the court... is too weak."
Li Chen sighed softly, this country may seem huge, but in fact everyone has their own interests. The imperial court is weak and the localities are easy to be tyrannical. This situation has already begun when Emperor Daxing was the emperor, and now, it is even more
It's getting worse.
Prince Ning is indeed not that easy to kill.
Once King Ning dies, his fiefdom will inevitably be in chaos. Li Chen has long foreseen it and has been mentally prepared for it. However, the chaos will become so intense and so fast. To be honest, it is indeed a bit beyond Li Chen's expectation.
But now that the matter has come to this, it is completely not Li Chen's style to blame others.
After letting Zou Qingyuan go back to work, Li Chen turned around and saw Jian Xin looking at him with a half-smile.
"It's rare to see you helpless when faced with something," Jian Xin said.
Li Chen said lightly: "I am a human, not a god. It's just like you are in the fairyland on land, but are you really a god? There are always more things that you can't do in this world. This principle applies to me.
It’s the same thing.”
Jian Xin nodded, feeling that what Li Chen said was sincere and reasonable.
Then, Jian Xin changed the subject and said, "You don't have manpower, I do."
Jian Xin said: "Do you want me, the White Lotus Sect, to help you sort it out?"
Li Chen refused without thinking, "No matter how thirsty I am, I will not drink Hedinghong to quench my thirst. You should not have such thoughts, it is unrealistic."
Jian Xin didn't insist. This idea was just a casual thought of his. It would be best if Li Chen agreed. This would be an opportunity for the White Lotus Sect to break away from its status as a Jianghu organization and officially manage the Gansu and Shaanxi regions.
However, Li Chen is not a fool, and there is absolutely no way he would let such a thing happen, and Jian Xin does not expect Li Chen to agree.
"Why are you so stingy? I really want to help you. How about we, the White Lotus Sect, help you get those traitors who are colluding with foreign enemies?"
Jian Xin chuckled and said, "Are you so cautious that you would refuse such a kind offer?"
Seeing Jian Xin offering to help several times, Li Chen suddenly became alert.
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Jian Xin, and asked with a smile: "I am so polite for nothing. I am afraid that this pie falling from the sky is poisonous."
Jian Xin said calmly: "Whether you accept it or not is up to you. Although the White Lotus Sect hates the court and the royal family, it despises traitors even more. If you want to relieve your anger, then I will order someone to arrest the traitor who sent food to the Liao army this time."
