Chapter 203.2
Inside the Great Xia imperial palace.
Who do you think will win this battle? Yaoyao had returned, eating fruit with Lin Beifan while discussing the matter.
I think Great Feng should win!
Sitting beside them, the now Consort Chu Han Chuchu couldnt help but speak up, After all, Great Feng has the geographical advantage and the support of the Buddhist Sect. Their chances of winning are great!
No, it should be Great Luo that wins!
Yaoyao shook her head, Because behind Great Luo is not only the Taoist Sect but also that woman Song Yufei! Dont be fooled by her, shes very shrewd and full of schemes! Ive been outwitted by her for several years, suffering several losses! If theyve agreed to send troops, they must be confident of victory!
Han Chuchu shook her head, I dont believe it!
Yaoyaos eyes twinkled, Lets make a bet! Whoever loses gives the winner one million taels, how about that?
Agreed, its a deal! Han Chuchu responded without hesitation.
At this moment, both women turned to Lin Beifan in unison and asked, Who do you support?
Lin Beifan smiled slightly, I think they will both suffer losses!
Both suffer losses? Both women were puzzled.
Lin Beifan nodded and said with a smile, Yes, they will both suffer losses. Great Feng will face heavy losses, and Great Luo wont fare any better! Who knows, maybe their troops will end up buried in Great Feng and wont make it back!
Han Chuchu immediately shook her head, I dont believe it, thats the least likely possibility!
Yaoyao leaned in close to Lin Beifan, challenging him, Little foolish emperor, dare you make a bet? The loser gives the winner one million taels?
Betting money is meaningless, lets bet on a condition instead! The loser must do something within their power for the winner, how about that? Lin Beifan countered with a challenge.
Agreed, its a deal! Yaoyao immediately accepted, already excited inside.
Once I win this round, not only will I erase the previous debts, but Ill also make him pay seven or eight hundred million taels!
Im just too clever, hehe!
Han Chuchu raised her hand excitedly, This sounds fun, I want to join too!
Good! Lin Beifan looked at the two women, his face revealing a mischievous smile.
After parting ways with the two women, Lin Beifan secretly summoned Elder Qian of the Beggar Sect.
Help me with a task!
Your Majesty, please command!
After receiving Lin Beifans order, Elder Qian, with a face full of joy, hurried off to the Great Feng Dynasty.
If I had a sword in my hand, I would surely kill all the monks of the Buddhist Sect!
After venting his frustration, he realized he was helpless.
He couldnt afford to provoke either the Taoist Sect or the Buddhist Sect.
Seeing that the Great Luo troops were about to reach the capital city, he finally gave up struggling: Quickly summon Master Jietan!
In less than half an hour, Master Jietan arrived with composed steps and said, Amitabha! Your Majesty, have you considered? Are you willing to convert to Buddhism and promote the Dharma?
The Emperor of Great Feng said with a bitter face, I am willing to lead the civil and military officials to convert to the Buddhist Sect!
Good! We shall choose a date for your ordination!
Great Feng Emperor was bewildered: Why must I also shave my head?
To shave and become a monk, to convert to the Buddhist Sect, is to show true sincerity! Master Jietan said with a compassionate smile.
However, Great Feng Emperor found his smile utterly repulsive!
The next day, in the royal court and in front of all the civil and military officials, Master Jietan shaved Great Feng Emperors head.
Other officials also had their heads shaved and donned monk robes.
Although it was just a matter of shaving their heads, it symbolized that the imperial power would now bow down to the Buddhist Sect!
From then on, the Great Feng court would become a vassal to the Buddhist Sect!
Not long after, the Great Luo army reached the Great Feng imperial city.
However, since almost everyone in the court and the capital city had converted to the Buddhist Sect, the Great Luo army only took some food and did not trouble them further.
Bareheaded, Great Feng Emperor looked at the empty granaries and then at the bald heads filling the court, his face bitter with regret.
Great Feng will never rise again!
After that, the Great Luo army continued northward, continuing to plunder food.
About half a month later, they returned home, their mission accomplished.
Little did they know that several elders from the Beggar Sect had secretly infiltrated their route to ambush them.
