The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

The Second Prince Mu Chuan was ecstatic after receiving the imperial edict from Mu Jiurui. He danced with excitement, a bright smile on his face, and shouted excitedly to the people around him: "That's great! That's great!" He couldn't wait to tell his confidants the news and share his joy with them.

"Finally, my father has given me a chance to show my abilities and talents. This time, I must perform well and live up to my father's expectations." Mu Chuan secretly made up his mind, his eyes full of firmness and determination.

In addition, he knew that this mission was not only about personal glory, but also about the safety and stability of the country. Therefore, he decided to go all out and do his best to ensure that the food and grass arrived safely at the front. At the same time, he also understood that this was a rare opportunity to establish his prestige in the court and win more recognition and support.

That night, Mu Chuan went to Ding Yu's home without stopping to seek his help and support. As Mu Chuan's uncle, Ding Yu has always been one of his closest people. When Mu Chuan asked Ding Yu for help, Ding Yu agreed without hesitation and expressed his willingness to fully assist him in completing this important task.

"Uncle, you must help me with the escort of grain this time." Mu Chuan said sincerely, with trust and expectation in his eyes. Ding Yu nodded with a smile, stroking his beard, and replied gently: "Don't worry, as long as you complete this mission smoothly, you will be able to gain a foothold in the court, but you still have to be cautious and choose some people with strong martial arts to protect you secretly." After hearing this, Mu Chuan frowned and asked, "What is uncle worried about?" Ding Yu looked at Mu Chuan and explained earnestly: "Although we have made sufficient preparations, we may still encounter various unexpected situations on the road. In order to ensure that everything is foolproof, it is best to select some guards with superb martial arts and rich experience to protect you. In this way, even if you encounter danger, you can respond quickly to ensure the safety of grain."

"This time, the transportation of grain and grass is of great importance and should not be taken lightly," Ding Yu said earnestly, looking at his nephew in front of him. He knew that although his nephew was smart, he lacked experience after all and needed more opportunities to hone and grow.

Now that His Majesty is in his prime, except for the eldest prince who has been engaged, the other two princes have not yet officially come into contact with the government. Therefore, the situation in the capital has not yet shown a clear trend of taking sides. However, the former court and the harem have always been closely connected, just like him, Ding Yu. Since his sister entered the palace as a concubine, he was destined to stand with the second prince.

Ding Yu knew that the officialdom was like a battlefield, and every decision could affect the family's rise and fall. The task of transporting grain and grass this time was related to the livelihood of the soldiers at the front and the stability of the war. If something went wrong, it would not only put the soldiers at the front in trouble, but also bring great trouble to the Ding family and the second prince.

He hopes that through this mission, his nephew can be trained and grow, and at the same time show the strength and loyalty of the Ding family to the outside world. Ding Yu believes that as long as they can successfully complete this mission, they can win the trust of the emperor and the generals, and lay a solid foundation for the second prince's position in the court.

The identity of the eldest prince is really embarrassing. Although he is the eldest son of the emperor, he cannot get enough attention and support because of his mother's humble status. And Mu Feng's in-laws' family is just an insignificant seventh-rank official family, which makes his influence in the court very limited. Back then, the maid named Bai climbed onto the dragon bed while the emperor was drunk, and later gave birth to Mu Feng and his sister. Unfortunately, however, the maid eventually died of dystocia. Because she gave birth to a pair of twins, the eldest prince's in-laws' family was promoted to the seventh-rank idle position, but this could not change their low social status. Therefore, Ding Yu firmly believed that such an eldest prince would hardly pose much threat to the second prince.

On the other hand, the third prince's background is not bad, but Qin Huai is in deep trouble and his mother has been demoted to a noble. Even if the news brought back by Xie Ci can completely clarify the Jiangnan disaster relief case, Qin Huai will find it difficult to get away with it. Therefore, in this competition, Ding Yu feels that the third prince is not a big problem.

That's why he would spare no effort to support the second prince, but he had no other choice.

"Uncle, uncle?" Mu Chuan saw Ding Yu was lost in thought and called out.

"Ah..." Ding Yu came back to his senses, looked at Mu Chuan and said, "Remember my words, don't be arrogant or impatient. Listen and watch more on the road. Learn more from the people in the Ministry of Revenue." Ding Yu once again instructed the second prince.

"Yes, I will, don't worry." Mu Chuan said confidently.

"Go back. Don't come here too frequently in the near future. If you need anything, just ask the servants to deliver the message," Ding Yu thought for a moment and added.

"Okay." Mu Chuan was also very smart. He understood what his uncle meant. He came here this time because he had an imperial decree, so he came to discuss the matter without fear. If he came and went too frequently, it would inevitably arouse other people's suspicion, which would be disadvantageous to him.

After Mu Feng learned that Mu Chuan went to Ding's house, he was so angry that he smashed some things. He was angry that others had a prominent in-law, but his in-law was a useless drunkard, and his uncle only knew how to drink every day. The only thing to be thankful for was that his brother-in-law was the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, Zhang Qiao was also a native official in Beijing, and his family was rich, one of the richest families in Beijing.

Mu Feng was indignant and felt that fate was unfair. Why didn't he have such a powerful family to support him? However, this was the reality, and he could only accept it and try his best to use the existing resources to develop himself.

Two days later, the Ministry of Revenue finally prepared the food and fodder to be shipped to the northern border, and Mu Chuan was also ready to set off. At the same time, another team had already set off in advance.
