Bai Yuyue said calmly, "In the previous "Clan Chronicles", the East China Sea clan was listed above the royal family, which is really disrespectful. Now that the drought has been eliminated, it is time to uphold the reputation of the royal family."
"What's more, this time the clan has made no achievements during the drought, and the people are deeply resentful. It would be inappropriate to call it "The Chronicles of the Clan". Why not change the title to "The Records of Surnames"?"
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers suddenly realized.
Bai Yuyue's words have three meanings:
First, make good use of talented people from poor families.
Second, attack the reputation of those noble families.
Third, take this opportunity to relieve the drought to work hard to improve the prestige and status of the royal family among the people.
At the very least, the people should know that the most supreme authority is the royal family, not the nobles who are too big to lose.
These three moves, without any bloodshed, silently destroyed the majesty of those nobles.
The ministers nodded secretly, and Cang Xilin said: "My dear friends, please go back to Chaoyang Palace first!"
Everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Bai Yuyueque, feeling a little grateful.
Cang Xilin said apologetically: "Imperial sister, please go back first. I will go to your house to see you in person tomorrow."
