Chapter 197 Are They Crazy?
Hearing Mother Cui's voice, Xie Mingyuan could no longer sit still. He stood up suddenly, took a few quick steps to face Mother Cui, and said anxiously, "Give it to me quickly."
The letter contained the Zhao family's reply. Regardless of whether they agreed or not, the content of the letter was very important, and his uneasy mood was finally coming to an end.
Mother Cui was also Qin's maid who came with her as a dowry. When she saw Xie Mingyuan reaching out to grab the letter, she let go of it but still glanced at Qin.
Qin shook her head indifferently and motioned her to leave.
Mother Cui quickly left.
Xie Mingyuan quickly opened the letter and read ten lines at a glance. His expression changed from surprise, to shock, to frustration, and finally he sighed heavily.
"Sir, how's it going?"
The Zhao, Qin and Xie families were tied together by marriage. Even though with the death of Qin's grandparents, her relationship with the Zhao family was far less than before, if Xie Mingyuan was really dismissed from office, his property was confiscated, and he was exiled, it would not be of any benefit to the Zhao family at all.
Therefore, Qin guessed that her cousin would definitely be willing to make up the difference.
However, Xie Mingyuan's expression made her uncertain again.
Xie Mingyuan didn't reply to her, but turned around and handed the letter to her: "Read it yourself."
How bold!
"Are they crazy?"
After reading the contents of the letter, Qin screamed hysterically.
The Zhao family is about to be destroyed because of the foolish behavior of the younger generation...

Jiang Hao had just prepared a medicine last night, hoping to use it to control the toxins released by the sub-gu. In order to verify the feasibility, he came to find the Xu Xing brothers early in the morning.
Xu Xing ordered someone to prepare morning tea and called Zhang Zhongjing over. The three of them discussed the poison while drinking tea.
Jing Lei and Zhui Feng are both outside. They seem to be very free today.
"To be honest with you, Miss Jiang, there is really nothing to do today. All we have to do is wait."
Xu Xing explained calmly, then took a sip of tea.
"Girl, do you have a good grasp of this medicine?"
Zhang Zhongjing was always worried about whether the pills had any side effects. He had no appetite for tea and was very nervous.
"You know that medicine is poisonous to some extent."
Jiang Hao rolled his eyes at him and said, "So, unless it's absolutely necessary, I don't advocate killing Gu with poison. It's just that I haven't found the trigger to force out the mother Gu yet, and I can't keep piercing the Tanzhong acupoint, so I can only control it with medicine first. Don't worry, the effect is very small."
"That's fine, that's fine."
Zhang Zhongjing nodded repeatedly, and his nervous expression disappeared.
"One pill a day."
Jiang Hao pushed the pill in front of Xu Xing and said, "Take it for three days and it will be fine."
Xu Xing nodded and took note of it.
"Prince, there is news from the Zhao family."
Zhuifeng came in and glanced at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao understood and stood up to leave, but heard Xu Xing say, "It's not a big deal. It's okay for Miss Jiang to listen."
After saying this, he personally poured tea for Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao sat back down somewhat awkwardly.
Which Zhao family?
Jiang Hao didn’t know.
But since she stayed, she just listened quietly.
Zhuifeng then said, "Someone in Lincheng sent a message saying that Zhao Xingyu, the son of Zhao Yingkui, the head of the Zhao family, went to Yancheng some time ago and was detained along with his goods. The goods were supposed to be Gong fans and tie-dye, which are specialties of Yancheng, but for some reason, the soldiers found two carts of salt instead."
In Dali, those who smuggled salt would be punished with exile at the very least and death penalty at the worst.
No matter if he was framed or really was selling contraband salt, Zhao Xingyu was found to have two truckloads of salt, so he would definitely not escape the death penalty.
