130 Teahouse
“Didn’t you hear? The reason why the princess hasn’t recovered from her serious injuries is because the phoenix was freed by someone!” Afraid that the royal family would hear her and punish her severely, the person who spoke lowered her voice and looked around.
“How could the princess’ intrinsic spirit beast be freed?” Someone cried out in disbelief. In the next moment, he immediately realized that his voice was too loud and shrank his neck without daring to say anything else.
The person beside him asked in a low voice, “Could it be that the spirit beast hasn’t recognized its master yet?”
Someone immediately retorted, “How is that possible?! Don’t intrinsic spirit beasts recognize their masters right after they are born?”
“Could it be that this phoenix has another master?” Someone said softly, as if he had seen through something.
“Looks like natural phoenix essences lose their effects after the phoenix leaves!” Someone shook his head as he came to a conclusion.
“I think someone stole the little phoenix because they wanted to set the princess up!” There was never a lack of conspiracy theorists in the crowd.
However, there were also people who objected. “Which faction is so bold as to plot against the Princess?”
For a moment, there was a heated discussion in the teahouse about who actually dared to openly harm the princess. The targets of suspicion were naturally the people from the five families!
“I don’t think the Lei family and High Heaven Pavilion have the time to plot against the Princess. It can’t be them!”
“The Nie family and the royal family are interested in establishing marital ties, so it can’t be them, right?”
“I heard that the Nie family reported to the queen and the others that they had a secret technique to treat the princess’ serious injuries, but I don’t know if there are any follow ups.”
“I think the Fu family seems very low-key, so they might be plotting something.”
“The Hua family is as usual. They didn’t even make a peep.”
“Sigh, ever since something happened to the Li family, trouble has been rising in the capital one after another.”
“Could it be related to the abnormality on the Spirit Mountain on the day of the spirit beast competition?”
“Sigh, speaking of which, there seems to be no movement on the Spirit Mountain recently…”
The teahouse was full of lively discussions. From time to time, the shop owner would cough lightly and tell the customers not to be too engrossed in their discussion and be targeted by people with ulterior motives.
