Chapter 3572: Be Famous when You Start a Career
After all, the people below are the ones who really do the work.
If there is no way to prove that the family heads did it, even if they were punished, it would only be insignificant to them, and it would be of no use to Yun Dai at all.
What she wants today is everything from the eight major families, not just punishing those branches of their families.
Now that they have broken their skin, if they can't resolve the matter here, but are overturned by them and let them leave, with their combined strength, it will be a big trouble.
Yun Dai's eyes darkened slightly.
Although she is the queen, even though she keeps everyone here, she still has to have a good reputation and cannot rob her ministers' things without any evidence.
If she does this, she will lose her prestige and will no longer be able to be trusted by others and continue to rule Northern Qi.
Zhao Yuanjing, who had been quiet all this time, saw this situation and was about to speak, but Xiao Chuanchui suddenly stepped forward and said: "Ignore whether the private tax collection has anything to do with the heads of the family, there is one thing, but it is indeed you who did it. Yes. I won’t tolerate your quibbles.”
Everyone was slightly startled and looked at her involuntarily.
Even Her Majesty the Queen was stumped by the clever tongues of the family heads. She, a little girl in her teens, dared to say these words without shame.
Not only is it not surprising, it actually makes people laugh.
Tang Lingfeng said with a bit of joking: "Princess Anping is still young and said some wrong things, and I will not care about it. However, in this situation, it is better for the princess not to speak easily."
This clearly did not give Xiao Chuanchui a chance to speak.
Yun Dai glanced at him and said, "Chuochuan, tell me."
With the support of Her Majesty the Queen, Xiao Chuanchuan immediately said: "Your Majesty, I have evidence that the eight major families, headed by the Tang family and the Mo family, are suspected of treason!"
Everyone was horrified, and many people jumped up immediately.
Tang Lingfeng yelled angrily: "Xiao Chuanchuan, how dare you talk nonsense? Although our Tang family also has some unworthy and unfilial children who have done some irregular things, when it comes to loyalty to the Xiao family, our Tang family says Second, no one dares to claim first place!”
Mo Sang also immediately said: "Princess Anping, please don't slander me and others at will!"
Their tone was extremely harsh.
Regardless of the laws of any country, rebellion is a heinous crime that cannot be punished.
This is a sin that no princess can forgive.
Once accused of such a crime, no matter what kind of century-old family, there will be only one final result.
Jun Qingbai asked Xiao Chuanchuan softly: "Chuachuan, do you really have evidence? It's not easy to talk about this kind of thing."
Although she was Yun Dai's personally chosen heir, if she dared to slander the Eight Great Families for rebellion without evidence, not even Yun Dai could protect her.
Xiao Chuancuan nodded to her to reassure her.
"Who said I have no evidence?" She raised her voice, "If there is no evidence for this kind of thing, I will just talk nonsense?"
"What evidence do you have? Show it and see! The reputation of our eight major families cannot tolerate such slander!" Mo Sang shouted angrily.
Xiao Chuanchuan looked at Yun Dai: "Your Majesty."
Yun Dai said: "Please bring out any evidence you have."
"Cai Chuan obeys the decree."
Xiao Chuanchuan immediately shouted outside the palace, "Xiao Zhuang, please trouble you."
Xiaozhuang's response came from outside the hall.
After a while, Xiao Bed led a few guards and walked in carrying several large boxes.
"Xiao Zhuang, open the box."
