"Nonsense, of course I was born in a nobleman. How about being the chairman of the committee? You are also born in a nobleman. We are in the same group. Don't think that you can stay out of the matter if you don't have a noble title now. That's impossible, German The grand duke of the county would not agree either.

The Grand Duke is still very optimistic about you, otherwise you thought that the Duke who doesn’t show up several times a year will suddenly be caught by reporters and asked a lot of questions. The Earl of Devonshire in Oxford has always given you the title Keep it, it depends on whether you want it or not, William, there are many people watching you now, you better think about where you want to stand, hahaha"

"What's so funny, Garris, this is what I want? The title has already been inherited, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. I don't believe you can change the laws of England."

Gareth Mallory rolled his eyes, "I suddenly felt that you are worthy of our investment, why would you ask such an idiot question, how did the current earl inherit the title?

Your grandfather made arrangements for you long ago. Although the current earl is also a member of the Devonhill family, he has no children, and Henry signed a contract with the current earl in front of the royal family and nobles, as long as he If you have no children, the title must be returned to you. The earl is now 65, and he has been busy for ten years, but it is still useless. I heard that when he went to the hospital for an examination last month, it was confirmed that it is impossible to have any more children. Do you understand?"

William thought about it, but still felt unreliable.

"It's still impossible. I don't have the right of inheritance at all. The earl's other male relatives can inherit the title. It's not up to me to calculate this matter." William sighed.

English women cannot inherit the title, and William's mother, Lena, did not have the right to inherit, so neither did he.

"Haha, otherwise people would say that Henry Winster Devonhill is a cunning fox. I don't know if your Devonhill family is cursed, or... "Garys Mallory stopped talking, and looked at William meaningfully, a picture you should understand, which made William's inexplicable heart beat.

He was a little startled by the sudden thought that popped up in his mind.

"You and the current Earl of Oxfordshire are the only ones of yours who have blood certificates.

When there is no other heir, according to the law of noble succession, the heir registered in the noble council is now only you, and only you are the heir. As long as you don't refuse, you will soon be the Earl of Devonshire in Oxfordshire, England. I think you have money to inherit, and you will have to pay a lot of inheritance tax then.

Now aristocratic families like yours that don’t put their family property in trust funds can’t be found in the whole of England. Mr. Henry Winster Devonhill is really ruthless. It seems that he is really afraid of other Devonhills. People from the Er family branch jumped out to grab the inheritance right, even if someone had the intention to do so now, they would not be able to inherit if they could not pay the tax, and if they could afford it, there was no proof of blood in the noble council.

The Grand Duke of Devonshire is also troubled by the fact that the heir does not have much money. Seriously, Mr. Henry Winster Devonhill, isn’t he afraid that you have no money to inherit the title and property?”

"I'm afraid, if I can't inherit the title, at worst, I will give it to the English government for nothing. Henry must have thought so at the time," William sighed.

He now knows that the aristocratic inheritance law in this world is somewhat different from his previous life.In the previous life, a person like him had no inheritance rights.

Chapter 23. The Secret of the Oxford Regulations

William said with emotion: "After hearing so much from you, it seems that I have no choice. Then, Garris, I will be considered a member now."

"Of course, even if you don't want to join the gang, you don't have to. The Grand Duke has persuaded the disheartened earl. Tomorrow, the earl of Oxford will go to the noble council to register you as his heir, and it will be reported in the media. It was something arranged by Henry, you don’t have to accept it if you want to,” Gareth said to William with a smile

"Are you in such a hurry to put the title on my head? Is there something in me that you fancy, or are you worried about something?"

William asked the question in his heart, he wouldn't really believe that these people didn't ask for anything from him, and they just wanted to be a good person, so they didn't think he was a pig's foot and wanted to lean on him.

Gareth Mallory thought about it and decided to tell William

"The Oxford regulations in 1258 have always been kept by the Earl of Oxford. Before Henry died, he never told anyone where the regulations were. He only asked us to ensure that you can successfully inherit the title, and you can find the regulations. We I have been searching for 10 years and have not found it, this is a test for you.”

"If I can't find it, it will be like this, will you get angry and kill me?" William asked nervously

Gareth Mallory looked at him like an idiot: "Idiot, what era is it now, it is so possible to assassinate nobles, even if you can't find it, you are already a noble at that time, but you will never get us recognition, cannot enter the core circle”

Don't look at what Gareth Mallory said was easy, but William didn't believe what he said. He knew that he had the blood of the Great Celestial Dynasty. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get into the inner circle of the English nobility. It's not rare, why do you find so many things for yourself, as long as you can make money, you will make money, sir, I will enter the inner circle of the world.

Having a W team in hand just allows you to form a special team to protect your property and family safety. As for protecting the royal family and dealing with special security issues, it depends on William's mood. His soul is not from England. .

Gareth Mallory told William to sit there silently, thinking that he knew that the regulations were there and hurriedly asked: "William, do you have any impression, the regulations are very important, and it would be great if you can find them."

William thought about the memory in his memory, as if there was something that Henry whispered to himself on the hospital bed, but he still had to verify it.

"If I find it, do I need to show it to you?" William deliberately set a trap

Hearing that William wanted to hand in the Oxford regulations, Gareth Mallory hurriedly said, "Of course that's the best, William."

William knew that these guys had no good intentions. The Oxford Regulations are the Earl of Oxford's greatest proof. There are notes on this Regulation in the Noble Council. The Earl of Oxford who holds the Oxford Regulations is the real Earl of Oxford.

I don't know what secrets are hidden in this regulation, so that these nobles are so obsessed with it,

"By the way, I remember. Henry seems to have said something to me. What is eh?" William thought in his clothes, hammering his head from time to time.

William lowered his head and covered his face with his hands. In fact, he was perceiving Gareth Mallory with his mental power.

Gareth Mallory stared at the pensive William, shaking his hands nervously.

After playing Gareth Mallory for a few minutes, Eric slapped his head and said, "I figured it out."

"William, what's on your mind, tell me quickly," Gareth Mallory stood up nervously.

"Ah, Gareth, why are you so nervous, oh, it's nothing. I thought that Henry said that after finding the regulations, he just needs to take a picture of the penultimate paragraph after the regulations and give them to you. Garris, you are not honest, you want to cheat me?"

William pretends to be angry

Gareth Mallory is indeed the person who can be the chairman of the committee. He immediately realized that this was William playing tricks on him. He wanted to take away the secret amulet of the Devonhill family just now.

"Damn it, William Devonhill, you're weak-hearted, you're as weak-hearted as Henry, that old fox Henry threatened us with a secret that your family has guarded for thousands of years in order to let you inherit the title," Gareth Ma Lori couldn't help scolding William regardless of the public.

William picked up the wine glass and took a sip, "Haha, Gareth, we are all the same, I am better than you, haha"

Gareth Mallory said angrily: "William Devonhill, you don't even know the importance of that regulation. It may change the world. It must not cause any problems. The final text of the regulation must not let anyone Let the public be known to the public, otherwise there will be a big mess."

"Okay, okay, Garris said it as if you knew it, if you knew what it was, why would you ask me for it?" William waved his hands boredly.

"I don't know what is written on the regulations, but the royal family and the Grand Duke of Devonshire know what is on them. Henry showed the Grand Duke, and then the Grand Duke warned Henry and our noble council to keep them safe. The regulations The following text cannot be seen by anyone, he said that if the world knows it, there will be a big mess." Gareth Mallory growled in a low voice in despair

"That is to say, only our Devonhill family cares about the Oxford Regulations. What you care about is the text written after the regulations?" William asked curiously.

"Yes, the Oxford Regulations are useless to us, only you Devonhill family will value it, we were all frightened by the Grand Duke of Devonshire at that time, we wanted to see what it wrote, and were afraid of the Grand Duke What you say becomes true, and the world really messes up because of a sentence.”

Gareth Mallory hesitantly said with a sigh

William was aroused by his two-faced dilemma, "I really want to see what is written in the regulations, Gareth? Mallory, I said that I am the owner of the regulations, I think there is no problem."
