The feedback from this side made Su Qingshi stunned.

I never thought that there are fools in this world who would drag their family into the abyss for their own future.

To be honest, it’s all because of selfish motives.

Cui Minghan, the third elder of the Cui family, has always been a man with lofty ambitions and eyes only for power.

Long before, he had betrayed his family and joined the Ning Wang army, hoping to make a desperate attempt to win the title of "following the dragon". However, things are unpredictable, and it was Liuyang Wang Yuwen Yong who finally ascended the throne.

Faced with such a dramatic change, Cui Minghan fell into extreme confusion and anxiety.

Just when he was at a loss, King Ning directly issued an order, requiring him to send the direct descendants of the ten great families to Liangzhou in Longyou Road. This sudden task made Cui Minghan feel extremely stressed.

What is even more surprising is that the messenger who came to deliver the letter was actually a powerful grandmaster!

This meeting was not arranged in advance, but was purely accidental - they "met by chance" at Delicious Pavilion in Huzhou City.

Of course, the letter was smeared with some poison!

After failing to persuade Cui Haoyu last time, Cui Minghan became unusually obedient and honest on the surface, fearing that the clan would really deal with him. Later, seeing that the clan had no reaction, Cui Minghan put his heart back in his stomach.

However, Cui Minghan did not really give up his collusion with Prince Ning, he just became more secretive.

Out of consideration for family affection, or perhaps because he admired Cui Haoxuan's wholehearted devotion to the family's interests as well as his outstanding talent and foresight, Cui Mingyuan was finally moved with compassion and did not excessively restrict Cui Minghan's personal freedom.

Of course, he would not really ignore it. Cui Mingyuan still sent people to closely monitor Cui Minghan's every move in secret. After all, the behavior of a traitor is always unpredictable, and the slightest mistake may bring disaster to the entire family.

However, there is no such thing as a thief who can thieve for a thousand days. Secret surveillance will eventually give others an opportunity to take advantage of it.

After Cui Minghan finished reading the letter, a nameless fire surged in his heart, making him furious!

The veins on his forehead bulged as if they were about to burst. He could not suppress his anger and tore the letter into pieces without hesitation, and lit a fire to burn it to ashes.

However, at this moment, he suddenly noticed that a red line had quickly appeared on his wrist. This red line seemed to have life, spreading upward at an alarming speed. Cui Minghan's face instantly turned as pale as paper, and his previous arrogance disappeared without a trace.

"I...I'm really poisoned?"

Cui Minghan murmured to himself, his voice trembling with fear. At this moment, he finally realized the seriousness of the matter. It turned out that the medicine in the letter was not an ordinary thing, but the key to activating the poison in the body!

That’s right, he was indeed poisoned.

This poison had been lurking for a long time, waiting to be triggered by a specific medicine. The mysterious medicine on the letter happened to be the fuse that ignited the poison.

Cui Minghan felt powerless and desperate in the face of what was happening. He had never thought that he would be in such a predicament, and now he had no idea how to deal with it. His heart was filled with regret, fear and despair.

Cui Minghan fell heavily to the ground like a body without a soul, as if all the strength in his body disappeared in an instant.

The night was like a pool of thick, insoluble ink, ruthlessly engulfing everything in the world. In this endless darkness, Cui Minghan felt a deep despair coming from all directions, surrounding him tightly.

He knew very well that if he could not take the antidote in time to suppress the poison raging in his body, the toxin would invade his heart within three days. By then, even a god would be powerless to save him.

However, the fear and struggle in his heart were like surging waves, constantly beating against his fragile heart, making it difficult for him to find a moment of peace. At this moment, he felt like he was in a desolate and silent desert, looking around in confusion but unable to find a way out.

Time passed minute by minute, and every moment brought him one step closer to the abyss of death.

Finally, a faint pale light gradually emerged in the distant sky, and the dawn light quietly broke through the darkness of the night sky.

Cui Minghan suddenly came to his senses and was shocked to find that he had been sitting on the cold and hard ground for a whole night.

He was trembling all over and struggling to support his weak body, but his legs were out of control due to extreme fear and he could hardly stand.

Cui Minghan gritted his teeth and moved to the bedside to sit down. After thinking for a while, he simply lay down. He had to rest for a while before he had the energy to go out.

Slowly, Cui Minghan closed his eyes, and a turbid tear fell from the corner of his eye...

Perhaps it was due to the mental tension and the sleepless night that made Cui Minghan extremely haggard and tired. He fell asleep after just a few breaths.

I have to say that Cui Minghan is a carefree person. There are still three days, no, to be exact, two days before he dies, but he can still sleep, so he is not afraid of dying in a dream.

When Cui Minghan opened his eyes again, he found that it was almost dusk outside and lights were being lit in the house.

After a long sleep all day, Cui Minghan felt that his overall mental state was slightly better.

Subconsciously, Cui Minghan raised his left wrist and stared at the bright red line on his wrist that was almost extending to his elbow. He felt nervous and quickly got up to shower and tidy up his appearance.

Cui Minghan stood in front of the bronze mirror and looked at his face carefully. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal except that his face looked slightly pale, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Cui Minghan took a few deep breaths, trying to calm his inner panic, appear calm, and then walked out of the mansion gate as usual.

Although he was filled with uneasiness and anxiety, Cui Minghan still forced himself to remain calm, pretending that everything was normal, and continued walking towards Delicious Pavilion, preparing to meet the grand master under the command of Ning Wang Yuwen Tai.

The antidote to suppress the poison is in this gentleman's hands.

If a person does not serve himself, he will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

For the sake of my own life, I have to apologize to other families.

Anyway, if he succeeds, the Cui family will move forward with him to a more glorious era. If he fails, the Cui family will kick him out, and he will not be considered to have brought trouble to the family.

Therefore, Cui Minghan sacrificed his own reputation to seek better development for the Cui family.

Thinking along the way, Cui Minghan was almost moved to tears.

As expected, he was the only one who truly devoted himself to the Cui family and did not care about his personal reputation.
