Chapter 96: Collusion
The second officer at the side immediately came to the rescue: "Although we have no evidence of your murder, there is irrefutable evidence that you seduced Master Xue. So many people saw it. Your sister was about to marry Master Xue, but you intervened. You even seduced your brother-in-law. Who knows if you would turn love into hate and kill your sister to prevent her from marrying him?"
"That's right! Now even Z from the Temple has come out to testify against you, saying you're a murderer. What else do you have to argue about?"
"We are clearly Saka's relatives, but in the end, it was the Temple that found Saka's body. Even Saka's farewell ceremony was organized by the Temple. It's simply an insult!"
"Don't go too far! Z is just suspicious. Does he have any evidence to prove that I killed him?"
"Oh, if you had evidence, do you think you could still sit here and argue with us?"
"that is!"
None of the elders who had any say stood on her side, and each of them tried to drag her down.
Dong Yuetong was furious.
I know that these people have no moral integrity for the sake of profit.
After years of interacting with these people, Dong Yuetong realized that getting angry was useless.
She calmed down and smiled, "Since no one has evidence, that proves my innocence, right? Since I'm innocent, as the first heir, my sister's shares should be inherited by me. Everyone, don't forget how the Tang Clan got its start."
"Now that my sister is dead, if I hadn't gone to treat those people, the Tang Clan's reputation would have quickly plummeted. Without me, the world's bigwigs would no longer respect the Tang Clan. By then, even if you held more Tang Clan shares than you do now, you probably wouldn't be as wealthy as you are now. Furthermore, we have had a decades-long friendship with the Xue family. If I weren't the middleman, do you think you could continue to cooperate with them?"
"Second Miss is right. Although it was indeed unkind of her to get together with Master Xue behind Saka's back, Saka is dead now. If Second Miss hadn't been with Master Xue, I'm afraid our connection with the Xue family would have been severed. You know, the Xue family controls the import and export fortress of our jade business, which is a huge source of income for the Tang Clan."
"That's right. Fortunately, the Second Miss has a good relationship with Master Xue, so we won't have any worries in this regard in the future."
"The Second Young Lady's Qigong was also taught by Saka himself. Although she's not as proficient as Saka, I would like to ask all the elders present here, who can be better than the Second Young Lady in medicine? Who has Qigong?"
At this time, talents who supported Dong Yuetong came out one after another.
It was also at this time that Xue Jinyuan appeared in the conference room under Dong Yuetong's arrangement.
"Elders, I'm very sad about Saka's death. As Saka's fiancé, I fell in love with Xiaoyue, which is my fault. But I can assure you that no matter whether it's Saka or Xiaoyue, my Xue family will fully support them."
Xue Jinyuan's words are very artistic.
In other words, apart from Saka and Dong Yuetong, the Xue family may not give face to anyone else who is in charge.
The head of the Xue family was once a maritime tycoon in the Delta, controlling the sea routes there. Even Somali pirates would never easily rob a Xue family ship. This was how important the Xue family was to the entire maritime route.
