The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.

"What? Are you scared?"

Ning Quan stopped and looked at Li Dezheng sarcastically.

"Your Highness, the Ministry of Revenue's warehouse is a strategic location. If the Ninth Prince insists on trespassing, he will undoubtedly anger His Majesty."

Li Dezheng said as if he was considering Ning Quan.

"Haha~ angering His Majesty? Do you think Father will kill me for this?"

"Li Dezheng, don't you think about this: if the emperor wanted to kill me, how could I still be alive today?"

Ning Quan laughed wildly towards the sky.

"Uh……"

Hearing Ning Quan's words, Li Dezheng was stunned.

In the past, he would have really believed what the Ninth Prince said.

As everyone knows, His Majesty has never liked the Ninth Prince because of his bloodline from the previous dynasty.

But now it’s different. The ninth prince was unexpectedly canonized as the King of Beiting.

Even though Beiting is not a good place to go, who can understand the emperor's thoughts?

"Li Dezheng, this prince is giving you one last chance. Do you have the money?"

Seeing Li Dezheng remained silent, Ning Quan shouted coldly.

"this......."

Li Dezheng still hesitated.

"good very good."

Ning Quan sneered and walked towards the warehouse in the backyard.

"Come here, the Ninth Prince is trying to break into the warehouse without permission, stop him now."

Seeing this, Li Dezheng shouted hurriedly.

"Yes!"

"Swish, swish, swish..."

As soon as he finished speaking, several guards immediately rushed forward, trying to stop Ning Quan.

"presumptuous!"

Ning Quan was furious and suddenly drew his sword and slashed.

"Ding~"

"Ding~"

Several crisp sounds were heard, and several guards were knocked back.

"Hi~"

Seeing this scene, Li Dezheng took a breath and looked horrified.

He never imagined that the Ninth Prince knew martial arts?

The guards before him were all elite soldiers, all of them possessing the strength of the second rank, but they were unable to withstand a single blow from the Ninth Prince.

Judging from this, the Ninth Prince is at least a third-rank warrior.

This is incredible.

Is this still the same loser as before?

How could he know that although Ning Quan was a loser in his previous life, he was actually a genuine third-grade warrior, but he had been hiding it.

This world is different from Earth. Military generals are divided into different grades, from the lowest grade one to the highest grade nine. The higher the grade, the stronger the strength.

For example, Zhang Fei is equivalent to the ninth rank here, while Xiang Yu is equivalent to the peak of the ninth rank.

Of course, this grade is useless, it is nothing more than a division of strength.

"Crash."

Hearing the noise, more guards rushed into the courtyard.

"Everyone, get out of here!"

Seeing this, Zhang Fei immediately stepped forward, shook his wrist, and the cold light of the Zhangba Snake Spear suddenly appeared.

“Squeak, squeak, squeak…”

In an instant, more than ten guards were thrown backwards, crashing into the courtyard wall, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

"hiss!"

Li Dezheng was confused again.

Who is this?

He actually defeated more than a dozen guards with just one move?

Judging from his appearance, this guy is at least a sixth-grade one.

When did the Ninth Prince recruit such a master?

This is too outrageous!

"Get out of here! If anyone dares to stop me, I, Old Zhang, will kill you."

Zhang Fei roared, his eyes wide open, and a strong fighting spirit burst out from his body, which was terrifying.

Seeing this, the guards were frightened and retreated one after another.

Such a master is simply not someone they can deal with.

"Humph, you guys know what's interesting."

Zhang Fei snorted coldly, suppressed his fighting spirit, and then protected Ning Quan as they walked towards the warehouse in the backyard.

When Li Dezheng saw this, he immediately broke out in a sweat.

He knew that something bad was going to happen today.

"Minister Li, would you like to open the treasury yourself, or should I open it for you and see how much silver is inside?"

Arriving at the door of the warehouse, Ning Quan stopped and spoke condescendingly.

Ning Quan knew that Li Dezheng was the second prince's man, and he knew even better that Li Dezheng would never give up the silver readily.

Therefore, they had already made plans to break into the warehouse.

"Your Highness, trespassing into the storehouse is a serious crime."

"Besides...there really isn't that much silver in the treasury."

Although Li Dezheng had no way out, he still insisted.

"Breaking into the storehouse is a serious crime. Then, isn't deceiving this prince and His Majesty also a serious crime?"

"Hmph, I see you won't cry until you see the coffin!"

"boom......."

Ning Quan sneered and kicked the door open.

In an instant, silver light flashed.

What came into view was a mountain of silver, dazzling everyone's eyes.

"Minister Li, didn't you say you had no money? What is this?"

Looking at the mountains of silver ingots in the warehouse, Ning Quan said coldly.

"This...this is impossible?"

"Your Highness, I am wronged. I...I don't know what's going on."

Li Dezheng suddenly collapsed to the ground, his forehead covered with cold sweat.

"Injustice?"

"Hehe, Minister Li, did this silver appear out of thin air?" Ning Quan sneered.

"I dare not...I dare not."

Li Dezheng's face was pale, his lips were trembling, and he couldn't speak.

"Huh, is it solved with just one word 'don't dare'?"

"Someone, come and arrest him for me?" Ning Quan's face was cold and murderous.

"As ordered!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Fei reached out and picked up Li Dezheng.

"Your Highness, I am innocent. This is not my fault."

Li Dezheng struggled hard and shouted hysterically.

"What's going on? Why is His Highness the Ninth Prince so angry?"

At this moment, an old voice suddenly sounded.

Ning Quan looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Minister of Revenue Chen Guodong hurried over with several officials.

"Minister Chen, you are finally here, please save me."

Seeing Chen Guodong and others appear, Li Dezheng shouted anxiously as if a drowning man had grabbed a piece of driftwood.

"Shut up, do you think I'm blind?"

"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince, please calm down."

Chen Guodong scolded and then saluted Ning Quan.

"Minister Chen, you've arrived just in time. This prince came to the Ministry of Revenue to collect silver, but Minister Li told him that the Ministry of Revenue didn't have that much silver."

"Now look, is there any silver?"

Ning Quan looked at Chen Guodong coldly and asked.

"This... Your Highness, please listen to me. This is actually a misunderstanding."

"So that His Highness knows that this silver is the annual salary that just arrived yesterday."

"And Minister Li happened to be on leave yesterday, so he didn't know about this."

"Therefore... I hope Your Highness will show some leniency."

Chen Guodong said with a smile on his face, but secretly cursed Li Dezheng for being stupid. He couldn't even do the smallest thing and let Ning Quan catch him.

"Misunderstand?"

"Well, since Minister Chen said so, well, this prince will not pursue the matter."

"Now that you have the silver, quickly prepare it for this prince."

Ning Quan glanced at Li Dezheng and said to Chen Guodong indifferently.

As long as he gets the money, Ning Quan doesn't want to cause any more trouble.

Anyway, Li Dezheng will die sooner or later.
