C113 The Third Prince's Deal

Lee Xiang paused for a second. For the first time, he raised his head and looked at Shaun. However, he was confused. He couldn't understand what Shaun meant by what he said just now. Was he trying to hide his ambition? Or was he just trying to live a happy life? It seemed like he had both intentions? Or did he not?

All of a sudden, Lee Xiang realized that he had underestimated the Third Prince, including many people. He had always thought that he could see through most of the people in this world with his two lifetimes of experience. However, Lee Xiang found that Shaun seemed to be getting more and more blurry.

Just like this time when he volunteered to come to Bael City, was it just to meet him? It probably wasn't that simple!

Shaun looked at Lee Xiang's expression and did not care. He smiled and changed the topic, "Oh right, I heard that it was you who persuaded Ronton to agree to enlist Lower Race for military service?"

Lee Xiang's heart skipped a beat. He thought about the meaning behind Shaun's question at lightning speed. After making sure that he did not ask casually, he thought for a moment and said, "You can also say that. . . " "To tell you the truth, I actually had this idea many years ago. The days after the enlistment of the Lower Race will definitely be the trend of the general trend. At that time, I had also suggested to my father. However, he rejected it! " Shaun nodded and interrupted Lee Xiang's words. At the same time, his eyes were fixed on Lee Xiang. He said with a deep meaning, "Back then, you convinced Ronton of some truth. To be honest, I also told father about it. But. . . Sigh! "

At the end of his words, Shaun showed a trace of unwillingness on his face. Obviously, he had been severely reprimanded.

Lee Xiang did not expect Shaun to have such foresight! Lee Xiang was greatly moved when he heard this, because intuition told him that Shaun had suddenly changed the topic. He had clearly told Lee Xiang that he had actually thought of this many years ago. This was a hint that he had actually thought of the same thing as Lee Xiang. It seemed that there was a very deep meaning behind his invitation to ride with him today.

"But I don't really agree with your suggestion about the Lower Race army!" Shaun continued.

"Oh?" Lee Xiang was very interested. "Please speak, Your Highness!"

"I don't think that the army formed by Lower Race should be guarding against them, or they should be deliberately assigned to do some meaningless things!" Shaun looked at Lee Xiang. A strange light flashed in his eyes. "I think since it's used, it should be the same as all the other armies. Equal treatment, give them absolute trust. This is the only way to make all the Lower Race feel like they belong to us. Otherwise, after a long time. . . When they realize that they are still lower than the white people in the end, I'm afraid the consequences will be even worse! "

What a good Shaun! Lee Xiang praised in his heart. In fact, how could he not understand the principle of using people who did not doubt others and did not doubt others? It was just that he was afraid that Ronton would suspect that he had selfish motives, so he deliberately mentioned it like this! He did not expect Shaun to think so far ahead. Lee Xiang began to look at him in a new light.

"In fact, I think the same as you, Your Highness. But how many people in this world have the same thoughts as you, Your Highness?" Lee Xiang smiled bitterly.

Shaun shook his head lightly. "In fact, it doesn't matter if anyone has the same idea as me. The important thing is how to make them have the same idea. The important thing is how to convince them to have such an idea. This is not a difficult problem. In my opinion, no matter what race they are, as long as they are the army of the empire, The key problem is that as long as you choose the person who will lead the troops, the person who will lead the troops will be fine. There will be no problem with this army! "

"The problem is that if I try to convince them with my current identity, I'm afraid it will be counterproductive!" Lee Xiang shook his head with a bitter smile.

"I understand your difficulties. With your current status, it is not suitable for you, but can you not use other people's words to persuade him? For example, Lindman? Or me?" Shaun smiled faintly. He patted Lee Xiang's shoulder. "To be honest, In fact, I think that it would be best for you, Lee, to be in charge of these two legions!"

Lee Xiang was stunned. He looked up at Shaun. He could tell what he meant. But he needed to know what his purpose of saying this was.

"Your Highness, you must be joking. I have no experience, and my current identity is not suitable. . . "

"How about this!" Shaun shook his head and interrupted Lee Xiang. "Why don't we make a deal?"

"What deal?" Lee Xiang's expression became serious.

"I will think of a way to make Ronton agree to give you these two newly formed Lower Race divisions willingly! And you must promise me one thing! "

"What is it?" As soon as Lee Xiang said those words, he immediately regretted it, because he realized that he seemed to have become a little impatient all of a sudden.

"We'll talk about this after you become the commander of these two divisions! Of course, if you can't become the leader, you can't promise me that. But if you take this position. . . "Shaun chuckled. "In any case, there are only benefits and no disadvantages to it!"

Lee Xiang thought quickly. Although Shaun's suggestion was a supreme temptation to him, he must first consider whether Shaun was sincere or fake. This was the key question! He did not want anyone to casually test out his true thoughts!

"I have no other purpose. . . " Seeing Lee Xiang hesitate, Shaun continued. "I have no way to prove it, Lee Xiang said. All you have to do is make a bet. You bet that I have no ill intentions towards you. Of course, if you are too careful, Lee Xiang said. Then I can only regretfully tell you that I, Shaun, have misjudged you. I will return to the capital tomorrow. I won't ask you about Lee Xiang anymore!"

Shaun stared at Lee Xiang with anticipation in his eyes.

"Of course, I believe it. In the future, you might be able to rely on your own intelligence to take the position of commander, but you should know that. . . The army is different from other places. These people are probably not someone you can command as you wish. You are the only one who will be the first commander. In addition to your special identity, they might sincerely work for you. Do you understand what I mean? So this matter should not be delayed. The longer you drag it out, the more unfavorable it will be for you. I believe that with your intelligence, you should be able to easily figure this out! Opportunities are fleeting. If you miss them, there won't be a next time!"

Lee Xiang fell into silence once again. He had to admit that Shaun was a very persuasive lobbyist. The army was indeed different from other places. The wildness of the soldiers determined their nature to be wild and unruly. It was very easy to get them to eat. However, they had to put in some effort to take it in their hearts. If he successfully became the first commander, In addition to his status as an Asian, this was definitely a great opportunity.

"Then what do I need to do now?" After a long time, Lee Xiang weighed the pros and cons and gritted his teeth.

Shaun laughed. "You did not disappoint me. Yes. What happened next was very simple. The Church could make use of it. I will think of a way for you, as long as they are interested in you. Then there will be a great chance to help you. You can find an opportunity to chat with Lindman. As for what to do, just cooperate with me. In short, if nothing unexpected happens, you will be the commander!"

The Church! Lindman! Lee Xiang muttered to himself. From Shaun's tone just now, it could be seen that. . . Clearly, Ronton trusted Lindman, this was a very good idea. As for the Church. . . Obviously, he could tell that the Church was interested in him. From this, it seemed that Shaun had already thought of a plan. It was just waiting for him to speak! But why would he help him? Lee Xiang was very suspicious in his heart. After a long time, he probed, "Your Highness came to Bael City this time. You didn't come here specifically to discuss this deal with me, did you?"

"Oh, we are here! You see, your Uncle Smith can't wait to see Sophie! " Shaun smiled again and looked outside the window. He did not directly answer Lee Xiang's question.

However, Lee Xiang already had an answer in his heart.

"Maybe I don't need to do anything. Sophie can also help you a lot!" Shaun laughed again. He opened the curtain and walked out of the carriage first.
