The War God Uncle's Delicate Wife

When Mu Jiuchen led his team to the destination, Jiang Li couldn't believe his eyes. The scene before them could only be described as shocking: ruins were everywhere, and the once prosperous and bustling town was now reduced to ruins. Those people who once lived and worked in peace and contentment were now forced to be displaced and homeless.

Jiang Li felt a pang of sadness in her heart. Although she might have anticipated that the situation here might not be optimistic before this trip, when she witnessed it all with her own eyes, she deeply realized that the reality was far more cruel and ruthless than she had imagined.

At this moment, a shrill cry reached everyone's ears: "My noble lord, please be kind! Save my child!" A woman with scars all over her face was standing in front of a collapsed house in despair. Her hands, which should have been white and delicate, were now covered in blood, which was heartbreaking. The woman's eyes were fixed on Mu Jiuchen and others, with endless expectations and pleading in her eyes, as if they were her last straw.

Seeing this, Mu Jiuchen ordered without hesitation: "Changyun, go and help quickly!"

"Yes, sir!" Chang Yun responded and waved his arm vigorously behind him. Then, several followers quickly stepped forward and joined the rescue operation. It turned out that before setting out for this place, they had already prepared for a rainy day and prepared some simple tools in Jincheng in case of emergency.

Mu Jiuchen and his group continued to move forward in a hurry. Their destination was very clear - the Qincheng Prefectural Government Yamen.

The prefect of Qincheng is named Liu Yi, who was a Jinshi who passed the imperial examination in the 35th year of the Shang Dynasty. He came from a poor family and studied hard since childhood. He eventually entered the official career with his talent and hard work. Since he became an official, Liu Yi has always adhered to the principle of diligence and love for the people, and has worked diligently for the welfare of the people. He started as a small county magistrate step by step, and after years of trials and tribulations, he finally took the position of prefect.

When Mu Jiuchen and others arrived at the prefectural government office, they saw only one yamen runner guarding the door. The yamen runner looked quite embarrassed and injured. It was obvious that he could not go to the disaster area to participate in the rescue work, so he was left to guard the government office. Seeing someone approaching, the injured yamen runner immediately became alert and shouted loudly: "Who is it? Don't come near!"

Chang Yun stepped forward and said, "I'm from the capital and have come to investigate the disaster. Where is your prefect?" Upon hearing this, the yamen runner hurriedly saluted. Although he was injured, he still tried his best to be considerate: "Sir, the prefect is organizing rescue operations in the city. I'm injured and cannot help, so I can only stay here to watch over you." Mu Jiuchen nodded slightly and led everyone straight into the city.

Soon, Liu Yi was seen directing people to move supplies. He was thin, his eyes were bloodshot but firm. Seeing Mu Jiuchen and his party, Liu Yi was stunned at first, and then hurried forward to ask, and then hurried over to greet him. After Mu Jiuchen explained his purpose, Liu Yi's eyes were red: "Sir, this disaster was too sudden, and there is a shortage of food and medicine in the city. The people are suffering." Jiang Li took out a list: "Don't worry, Sir Liu, we brought some supplies from Jincheng, and subsequent supplies will arrive one after another." Liu Yi was overjoyed and thanked him repeatedly.

However, just as everyone was discussing disaster relief, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from afar. Everyone looked and saw a group of people galloping towards them. The person leading them was Yao Yuancheng, the son of Qincheng's richest man.

"Prefect Liu! Look, my Yao family has people, money and things. This strength is not something ordinary people can compare to! As long as you are willing to marry your daughter to me, I promise to send someone to help you immediately. Moreover, I will persuade my father to donate some supplies to you to solve your current urgent needs. What do you think? This deal is simply a great deal for you!" Yao Yuancheng had a smug smile on his face, and his eyes fell unscrupulously on the pretty girl next to Liu Yi.

This girl is Liu Yi's eldest daughter, Liu Fenghua. Because of her beautiful face, she was unfortunately favored by Yao Yuancheng, a playboy, and she had to stay at home all day. If the family was not in urgent need of manpower and she had to help her father with work, she would never show up here with her father and brother.

"Yao Yuancheng, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have a few bucks! From now on, you'd better not have any bad ideas about my sister, otherwise don't blame me for being rude to you, believe it or not, I will beat you up right there!" Liu Yi's son Liu Yang pointed at Yao Yuancheng and shouted angrily with his eyes wide open. He has always been like his father, only devoted to reading sage books, and he is powerless. Facing such a rogue, he can only show off his strength with words.

"Oh, isn't this my brother-in-law? He is here too? Brother-in-law, you have to be careful and don't get angry. After all, you will take the imperial examination and become a big shot in the future!" Yao Yuancheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly with a contemptuous smile. He glanced at Liu Yang, who was powerless, with disdain and ridicule in his eyes.

"Prefect Liu, I'm afraid there are some things you are still in the dark about. The memorial you submitted previously requesting disaster relief from the court had already been intercepted by my uncle. Now you are like an ant on a hot pot - anxious and running around, but helpless! Crying to the sky and the earth for help, but no one can help! Hehe, apart from our Yao family, where else can you go for help? So, Prefect Liu, you'd better take it easy, right?" As he spoke, Yao Yuancheng straightened his back, crossed his arms across his chest, and looked down at Liu Fenghua who was hiding behind Liu Yi in a condescending manner.

At this moment, Liu Fenghua's face was as pale as paper, her body was trembling slightly, and her beautiful eyes were full of fear and helplessness. Seeing her so trembling, Yao Yuancheng couldn't help but feel an evil desire in his heart. He subconsciously stuck out his tongue and gently licked his dry lips, as if the woman in front of him was his prey that was about to be caught.

"Shameless!" Jiang Li's eyes widened, her eyebrows raised, and she scolded in a delicate voice. Her clear voice was as crisp and pleasant as a yellow oriole singing in a valley, but at this moment it was filled with anger and contempt.

This angry rebuke was like a thunder, breaking the originally calm atmosphere. After hearing this, Mu Jiuchen, who was standing opposite, not only did not show any anger or shame, but his mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a faint smile. In his eyes as deep as a pool of water, there was a subtle light of playfulness, as if everything happening before his eyes was just an interesting farce.
