Salt is as white as snow, but it can corrode bones and pierce the heart; it can season living beings and wash away their grievances.
In the fourteenth year of Qianyuan's reign, the new flower "Ye Jue" became famous in the capital. No one knew that he was Xiao Heng, the orphan of the Lanling Xiao family whose family was exterminated fifteen years ago. When he was seven years old, he hid at the bottom of a salt-carrying ship and watched three hundred tribesmen being stained with blood in the Lanling River. Now he has returned under a pseudonym, vowing to find out the truth about the "military salt case".
Shen Qinghui, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Qingyuan, discovered a secret account of a dyeing shop among the belongings of her deceased aunt. Following the clues, she unexpectedly involved intricate behind-the-scenes forces. And that "Mr. Ye" who frequently helps her hides a deeper secret.
In three years, enemies were eliminated one by one. When the forces behind the scenes were shocked to realize that all their minions were gone, the people in front of them tore off their disguises, revealing the Xiao family totem on their backs.
This is a revenge that lasts for twenty years, and it is also a journey of two souls from fighting alone to walking side by side. When the plum blossoms and salt fields on the banks of the Lanling River merge into one color - the souls of those who sank at the bottom of the river turned into salt and blended into the human world.
I wish to be the salt of the world and wash away the dirty world.

"Salt Frost Knot" is really a treasure of ancient style novels that I have recently discovered. It has a very delicate worldly style like "Knowledge", and it also has the tension of revenge and investigation. It has only been updated for a few chapters and it is already very popular.
The author's writing style is very comfortable, full of ancient charm, the language is clean and not obscure, the description is delicate and picturesque, and it is very immersive to read. The male protagonist Ye Jue has a very contrasting personality. On the surface, he appears to be a gentle and polite new star, but in reality, he is an orphan who bears the injustice of his family. He is forbearing and has a sense of story, and his character creation is very three-dimensional. The heroine Shen Qinghui is also outstanding. As the legitimate daughter of the Hou family, she is calm and transparent, neither humble nor overbearing. She is independent and thoughtful, not just silly and sweet. She has a cool and attractive temperament.
The plot has a tight rhythm, laying down the foreshadowing of the old case at the beginning. It does not drag out or waste the word count, and each chapter progresses. Although the article is not long, you can already feel the deep love and resentment behind it. Whether it is the character creation, writing style or plot rhythm, it is all online. The more you read, the more you look forward to the follow-up development, squat, squat, squat!
