Qiao Tian Chang was well aware that no emperor would want their officials to be involved in salt smuggling. No only did Qiao Zheng Hong do so, he did it in an enormous amount too.

Once the Emperor got wind of the matter, Qiao Tian Chang knew that the Qiao family was finished and their entire family might end up being executed.

It was understandable for Xiao Qi Feng to be enraged. By telling him about it, Qiao Tian Chang was doing him a favor as well as making it convenient for himself.

Qiao Zhen Hong was uneasy after returning from the residence belonging to the first general. He called his head servant, Qiao Lin, over.

As Qiao Zheng Hong's confidant as well, Qiao Lin was well aware of his misdeeds.

"Master, what's wrong?" Qiao Lin was puzzled by Qiao Zheng Hong's anxiousness. This was unlike his usual self.

Qiao Zhen Hong told Qiao Lin about the fact that Qiao Tiao Chang knew abot the Qiao family's involvement in private salt smuggling.

Qiao Lin frowned, things would be tricky if the Emperor knew about it.

"Master, what we have to do now is to destroy all the possible evidence." Qiao Lin thought about it. He believed that Qiao Tian Chang only knew about it and did not have any evidence in his hands. Otherwise, they would not be let off so easily.

"I thought so too, but I'm thinking over whether Qiao Tian Chang would really lay a hand on our Qiao Family." Even until now, Qiao Zheng Hong still had the mindset that since he was Qiao Tian Chang's father, as unfilial and rebellious as he was, he would never do such a thing.

However, Qiao Lin thought otherwise, "Master, you laid a finger on Third Young Master. I was informed that his wife had a miscarriage because First Young Master and Qiao Mo tried to kidnap her forcefully. I do not think that he would simply let it slide."

He knew what Qiao Tian Chang was like. They had already broken their ties with him. It was impossible for him to close an eye over the matter simply because of blood relations.

Qiao Tian Chang only sent his men to investigate about the salt smuggling because the incident upset him. His motive was to bring down the Qiao Family, would he let this chance slip by?

Qiao Zheng Hong looked at Qiao Lin worryingly. He only knew about the incident that happened to Qiao Tian Chang's wife this morning. To him, offsprings were not important, but he knew that it meant otherwise to Qiao Tian Chang from his expression.

"What do you plan to do, Master?" Qiao Lin was worried. They had to take action now or things would get difficult when Qiao Tian Chang get his hands on any evidence.

Qiao Zheng Hong waved his hand and sighed, "You decide what to do."

Qiao Lin nodded his head and went to instruct the men.

Once they got hold of the news that the Qiao Family had sent their men to destroy all evidence, Lin Zi You sent a few men to follow them to reach a secluded house.

The house contained everything the Qiao family had benefited from smuggling salt.

Once the location was found, news was immediately sent to Qiao Tian Chang.

Qiao Tian Chang was very satisfied with the results. He informed Ning Meng Yao and brought his men to that said house.

When Qiao Tian Chang went with his men, both parties were already in a fight.

The fight started because Qiao Zheng Hong's men tried to destroy all evidence, but the men on Qiao Tian Chang's side could not afford those to be destroyed.

Qiao Tian Chang brought his men into the courtyard, and found all evidence and the accounting book that recorded Qiao Zheng Hong's salt smuggling. He sneered when he observed that the values from his investigation results were inaccurate. The salt smuggling amount recorded on the accounting book took up thirty percent of Xiao Country's total salt smuggling activity.

In other words, Qiao Zheng Hong held thirty percent of Country Xiao's salt smuggling activity.

Not only did Qiao Tian Chang find the accounting book, he also found the money they earned from the salt smuggling.

He of course would not let all those money slip by. He ordered his men to transport all the money back to his residence.

Qiao Zheng Hong was definitely informed of such a huge uproar, but there was nothing he could do even if he wanted to. Qiao Tian Chang's men were all experienced war soldiers who were personally taught by him, how could Qiao Zheng Hong's men be compared to them?

"**** it, Qiao Tian Chang is scheming against me." Qiao Zheng Hong would have lived his life in vain if he still did not understand the situation.

Qiao Tian Chang informed him because he wanted Qiao Zheng Hong to be anxious and destroy the evidence of his private salt smuggling as soon as possible. When all evidence were moved to a holding area to be destroyed, he would follow behind and obtain all the evidence in one go to get hold of their weakness.
