A young man walked in with a strange expression outside the door, "Father."

"Hmph!" Xu Wenbi said angrily: "What's the matter coming in? You're sneaking outside, what do you think?"

Xu Tingfu glanced at his father and said helplessly: "Isn't my son afraid of making his father angry? There are too many things outside now, and his son doesn't want to bother his father."

Xu Wenbi shook his head helplessly, sat on the chair and said, "It's because of the bad skill of nourishing qi for his father. But this kind of thing turned out to be like this, and the whole family was in peace. Forget it, there is no need to pay attention to those outside, the family should be more peaceful."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tingfu breathed a little relieved, but soon showed an awkward expression, and hesitated and helplessly said: "Father, I'm afraid it won't work."

"How do you say this?" Xu Wenbi asked with a serious face.

"Just just now, news came from people outside." Xu Tingfu said with a wry smile: "Now people outside have spread everywhere. They all say that my father does not support His Majesty's title reform and is preparing to take everyone to the palace for advice."

After hearing this, Xu Wenbi's face changed drastically. He stood up suddenly and asked in a deep voice: "What are you saying? Are you really talking about this? Now people outside are really spreading this?"

"Father, how dare I lie about this?" Xu Tingfu said quickly: "After hearing about this, I immediately went out to inquire. As a result, what they said was true, and there were indeed such rumors outside."

"Who is this? Do you think I didn't die fast enough?" Xu Wenbi was angry with a serious face.

"Go to the palace gate to ask for advice, are they crazy or me crazy? Isn't the big etiquette incident that year a big deal?"

"Because of these things, I ran to the gate of the palace? What do you think? What would Your Majesty think?"

"Are we going to force the palace to rebel?"

"Father," Xu Tingfu said, "These people are probably just trying to force their father to express their opinions."

When he said this, Xu Tingfu felt guilty.

Xu Wenbi snorted coldly and said angrily: "What a stupid person who would come up with such a solution?"

"Originally, I told Your Majesty that this reform of the title is inappropriate and it is no big deal. Your Majesty will only think that we have selfish intentions. It is not a bad thing for Your Majesty to have selfish intentions."

"But now that this kind of rumor comes out, how can I tell His Majesty? No matter what, some people will think that we are arrogant and forced to palace!"

"A group of idiots have failed to succeed! I have more than failure!" Xu Wenbi was so angry that his eyes were red.

Xu Tingfu hurriedly said, "Dad, don't be angry, there are actually other rumors outside. Some people are saying that the title reform is supported by my father, and my father has not spoken out so far because his father supports the title reform."

After hearing this, Xu Wenbi was stunned for a moment, raised his eyebrows, and said nothing.

Xu Tingfu was also a little helpless and knew why his father was this time.

Now these words are also spread by someone, so who spreads this sentence? Or who spreads these two opposing rumors?

There must be people with ulterior motives here who want to make trouble.

Xu Tingfu had an idea that these rumors might also be from the palace, or at least one of them was from the palace. Two different rumors appear, which proves that people from both sides are exerting force.

At this time, footsteps suddenly sounded outside.

An old housekeeper suddenly walked in and said respectfully: "Dude, someone has come from the palace. Your Majesty summoned him."

Xu Wenbi suddenly stood up and turned pale, "Push me! I'm going to force me! I'm going to force me!"

Xu Wenbi said angrily: "This is to force me to death!"

Looking at his father's appearance, Xu Tingfu was also helpless and didn't know how to give advice to his father.

The situation in front of us is that everyone is hoping that his father will make his statement and that he will take the lead.

Those who oppose it hope that their father will take the lead in opposing it. But opposing His Majesty is too dangerous to bet on the present day, and if you really do this, you may be ruined by your family. Those people may not betray you at any time.

If we don’t object, our family will become the first traitor. Then the people who come behind will have a reason when betraying them: it’s not that we don’t resist, it’s because the other party is too strong.

Look, as strong as Duke Ding, he was the first to surrender. We did not resist because we heard that Duke Ding had surrendered and we were represented by him. It was not that we did not work hard, but that there were traitors.

In this way, my family still can't turn over.

Now his family is in this dilemma, and his father is not going to advance or retreat. Both sides are forcing his father to express his opinion, and Xu Tingfu didn't know what his father should do for a while.

After calming down his emotions, Xu Wenbi said, "You go out and tell people outside that I will clean up and enter the palace immediately."

"Yes, Duke." The housekeeper agreed, turned around and left.

After the butler left, Xu Wenbi nodded to his son and said, "I will leave the matter at home to you. If you have any, wait for me to come back."

Looking at his father, Xu Tingfu said cautiously: "Father, you have to be careful."

"Don't worry, nothing is wrong." Xu Wenbi waved his hand and said indifferently: "The palace is not a dragon's nest, it must be fine. The worst result is that we don't want the title anymore. What else can we do? Can't our family survive?"

When Xu Tingfu heard his father say this, his face was a little complicated.

He really wanted to tell his father that if he really lost the title, his family might not be able to survive.

In fact, Xu Tingfu felt that His Majesty's strategy was not a problem, and it was not unacceptable to wait for the title.

My family has been passed down for so many generations, and it is no big deal.

Besides, there is another advantage, that is, other people in the family can also be awarded titles.

The father has two sons and he also has a younger brother. According to the family rules, the younger brother will definitely not be able to inherit the title.

If the current policy is present, the younger brother will do it and he can regain a new title. In this way, the family will become better.

Besides, the title is not something that can’t be raised if you go down, and you can still improve it. For some capable people, this may be a good thing.

But at this time, Xu Tingfu really didn't dare to tell his father about this. Now there was a mess outside, and no one knew what everyone was thinking.

Many people get furious when they hear the title reform. If they speak for the emperor's new policy now, they will definitely be attacked by many people.

My family is now at the forefront, so there shouldn't be any more trouble.

After sorting out his clothes, Xu Wenbi walked out quickly.

In the palace.

After listening to Chen Ju's report, Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "It seems that some people can't wait. Have you released the news?"

"Back to Your Majesty, we haven't moved yet." Chen Ju said respectfully.

"Then let's arrange for someone to check." Zhu Yijun reached out and tapped the table gently, and said with a chuckling: "Check who released these messages and then repay them as soon as possible."

"I didn't expect that as soon as I released some news, someone wanted to mess up this jar of water."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will continue to arrange it." Chen Ju hurriedly bowed and agreed.

Zhu Yijun did not speak anymore, but fell into quiet contemplation.

Unexpectedly, I just released a little news and caused such a big stir. The most important thing is that I could clearly feel that someone was behind the scenes.

Although I don’t know who the other party is, it can be seen that it is obviously two forces fighting. One of them should be the nobles and the nobles, so who will the other one be?

If it’s not yourself, is it a civil servant?
