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

"I see. It seems he's lucky."

"In that case, he deserves to live."

"By the way, have you calculated his expenses along the way?"

Ning Yuanwu pondered for a moment and asked.

"Your Majesty, I've counted and found that His Highness's expenses haven't exceeded the allotment. As of today, His Highness should still have 500,000 taels of silver left in his hands."

Wang Cheng replied quickly.

"Just because the amount isn't exceeded doesn't mean he's not a suspect. The theft case hasn't been investigated yet, and all signs indicate he's the most likely suspect, so keep a close eye on him."

Ning Yuanwu's face darkened and he said indifferently.

"Yes!"

Wang Cheng agreed.

"Okay, you go down."

Ning Yuanwu waved his hand.

"Here!"

Wang Cheng bowed and retreated.

After Wang Cheng left, Ning Yuanwu's eyes flickered.

……

Beiting, Changhe City.

Inside the Protectorate, Li Chenglin was sitting on a chair.

"Sir, the latest intelligence report is that the Xiongnu Zuoxian King has made a move."

Deputy General Li Yuanchong walked in and reported with a fist salute.

"What's the noise?"

"Are they planning to invade Hexi or Longyou?"

Li Chenglin's expression became serious and he asked.

"Neither. According to the spies' report, the Xiongnu Zuoxian King is planning to attack Hulan."

Li Yuanchong replied.

"Hulan?"

"They want to attack His Majesty the Ninth Prince?"

Li Chenglin was stunned when he heard this, and a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.

"Exactly. A few days ago, Hu Yanquan's ambush on the Ninth Prince failed and he lost his life, causing an uproar among the Xiongnu."

"Western Xiongnu Chanyu Huxie was furious and ordered the Left Wise King to attack Hulan, determined to tear His Highness the Ninth Prince into pieces."

Li Yuanchong explained.

"Oh I got it."

"Haha, it seems like His Highness the Ninth Prince is in danger this time."

Li Chenglin laughed.

"Sir, should we send troops to rescue?"

"Send troops?"

"What troops are you sending? What does Zuo Xian Wang's attack on Hulan have to do with us?"

Li Chenglin shook his head decisively.

"Sir, if we don't send troops and His Highness the Ninth Prince is killed by the Xiongnu, will the court blame us?"

Li Yuanchong said worriedly.

"Haha, blame?"

"Why blame them? Hulan is not under the jurisdiction of Beiting. What does it have to do with us?"

"Besides... where do we get the military support?"

"Hasn't Kucha and Loulan already rebelled? Hasn't our Beiting army already gone there to quell the rebellion?"

Li Chenglin said lightly.

"Uh...your Excellency is wise!"

After hearing this, Li Yuanchong suddenly understood.

Did Kucha and Loulan rebel? Of course they didn’t.

But as long as adults say they are rebellious, then they are rebellious.

"You must immediately draft a memorial stating that Kucha and Loulan are in rebellion and that our Beiting army has set out five days ago to suppress the rebellion."

"As for Hulan, it's not that we don't want to save him, but we don't have the ability to do so."

Li Chenglin smiled faintly.

"Yes, I understand."

Li Yuanchong bowed and turned to leave.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, if you are unkind, I am also unjust."

After Li Yuanchong left, Li Chenglin muttered to himself.

......

Ning Quan had no idea what was happening.

After returning to the city, Ning Quan immediately returned to his room to prepare for the lottery.

Today is the day for the system lottery. He accompanied Wanyue on an outing in the morning, and then the bandits attacked the city. He had forgotten about it, but he remembered it just now.

"System, lottery."

After returning to the house, Ning Quan hurriedly gave instructions.

Before he finished speaking, a turntable appeared in front of Ning Quan.

There are still nine grids and nine items.

Viagra*3

Heavy machine gun*1

Telescope*1

Pistol*2

Stab-proof clothing*2

Refrigerator*1

Solar generator*1

Marrow Cleansing Pill*1

Penicillin*10

......

"Fuck, these are all good stuff this time?"

Seeing these items, Ning Quan couldn't help but exclaim.

Except for Viagra and stab-proof clothing, all the other items in this lottery are very good, especially the solar generator and refrigerator.

And obviously, since the system provides solar generators and refrigerators, it means that Ning Quan can obtain and use electricity in this world.

This is even more significant.

"Haha, that's great!"

"System, draw the lottery quickly!"

Ning Quan said excitedly.

"Yes, host, please wait."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining two pistols and fifty rounds of bullets."

After a moment, the system voice sounded.

Immediately, two pistols appeared in front of Ning Quan.

"pistol?"

"Hahaha, awesome, it's a pistol."

Looking at the two pistols in front of him, Ning Quan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

“That’s fucking awesome!”

"With this thing, I can kill any eighth-grade or ninth-grade weapon with just one shot."

Ning Quan was so excited that he grabbed the pistol.

Ning Quan was a special forces soldier in his previous life, so he was naturally familiar with firearms.

These are two Browning pistols. Although they are not as good as Barrett or M1911, they are still pretty good.

The key is that there are exactly two of them, one for yourself and the other for Wanyue to defend herself.

"Yes, Not Bad."

Ning Quan nodded with satisfaction.

Then, Ning Quan came to Wanyue's boudoir.

"Wanyue, open the door. I have something good to give you."

Standing outside the door, Ning Quan shouted excitedly.

Hearing the knock on the door, Wanyue hurriedly opened it.

“What good stuff?”

Looking at the excited Ning Quan, Wanyue suddenly became puzzled.

"Haha, it's a good weapon for self-defense."

"If you follow me to the backyard, you'll find out."

Ning Quan said with a smile, pulling Wanyue towards the backyard.

"Look, this is it."

When they arrived at the backyard, Ning Quan handed the pistol to Wanyue with a smile.

"This, what is this?"

Li Wanyue took the pistol and said something confused.

"This thing is called a pistol, and it's a hundred times more powerful than a crossbow."

"With it, even dealing with a ninth-grade enemy is no problem."

Ning Quan said proudly.

"Ah... so powerful?"

Hearing this, Li Wanyue was shocked.

"Of course, if you don't believe me, just look."

After Ning Quan finished speaking, he raised his gun and shot.

A loud bang was heard from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullet flew out, piercing the backyard wall in an instant.

Seeing this, Li Wanyue was stunned.

She really couldn't imagine that this thing could be so powerful.

"How's it going? Isn't it awesome?"

Ning Quan chuckled.

"Ah."

Li Wanyue nodded repeatedly.

"It just so happens that I got two. This one is for you to use for self-defense in the future."

"Let me teach you how to use it. Look... this is the safety, and this is the trigger..."

Ning Quan smiled and handed the pistol to Wanyue, then began to teach her how to use it.

Li Wanyue studied very seriously and understood it in a short while.

"Do you understand everything?"

"Ah."

"Okay, then try it now."

As he spoke, Ning Quan pointed to a big tree in front and signaled Li Wanyue to shoot.

"it is good."

Li Wanyue nodded and aimed her gun.

“Bang, bang, bang~~!”

After three gunshots, all the bullets hit the tree trunk, and wood chips flew everywhere.

"Wow, that's really amazing."

Seeing this, Li Wanyue exclaimed.
