His casually uttered sentence sent a shiver down the spines of the house servants, who couldn't help feeling that his next words wouldn't be pleasant.
"From today onwards, be they of legitimate birth or bastards, as long as I, the Family Head, deem them capable of holding the position of house servant, their status will be disregarded."
Pei Huai's declaration shocked all the house servants.
They couldn't believe their ears.
For them, legitimate birth had always been a symbol of privilege since ancient times.
Now he was saying that ability trumped status, how could that be acceptable?
"Family Head, please reconsider! This could undermine the very foundation of our Rimu Family!"
"Family Head, if you act alone, the entire Rimu Family will surely fall into chaos!"
"Family Head, you can't destroy the foundation of the Rimu Family just because you hold a grudge against the Feng Ya Family. By doing so, you could become known as the Rimu Family's sinner!"
