Chapter 1201 - Palace Side Hall (1/2)
“I came over because I wanted to talk about Feng Jiu. I am afraid that it will be counterproductive.” The voice of the Third Elder dropped and only Old Patriarch’s voice could be heard.
“You don’t need to handle this matter, I have my own arrangements.”
When he heard those words, even though he had more to say, the Third Elder shook his head and walked away instead.
Perhaps to the outsiders, the Shangguan Family was a centuries old Alchemist family and were magnificent beyond comparison. However, the few elders knew that the Shangguan Family were not the same as they were before.
The descendants of the family who practised alchemy few and none of them were outstanding. The only talented child Shangguan Wanrong had stayed at home initially, but she had been taken away for half a year now. If there were no more fresh blood and new talent being pushed up, then the Shangguan Family was sure to decline.
In fact, they were already going downhill at this point in time. It was just that the Shangguan family head and Old Patriarch’s had refused to admit it.
Perhaps they knew it. Otherwise, when they learnt that the Ghost Doctor Feng Jiu was the daughter of Feng Xiao and Wanrong, they would not have tried to bring her back to the Shangguan Family.
However, they didn’t know that Feng Jiu was unlike other people. As a Princess of the Phoenix Empire she was able to personally push her father up to the position of Sovereign, that alone was enough to prove her extraordinary ability.
Moreover, her reputation as the Ghost Doctor had long surpa.s.sed that of the Shangguan Family, so how could she be so easily controlled by them? To become part of the Shangguan Family?
On the other hand, when the people in the palace heard of the arrival of the Ghost Doctor, the concubines were pleasantly surprised as they thought that they might be able to get a Nouris.h.i.+ng Beauty Pill from the Ghost Doctor to help them look more beautiful. Therefore, they all went to the Country Ruler to beg him to take them to the Ghost Doctor.
While the concubines were waiting outside the hall, the Heaven’s Prayer Country Ruler was inside the palace hall listening to the report of the Dark Guard.
“Oh? So the ident.i.ty of the Ghost Doctor is the Princess of Phoenix Empire? It’s a girl?” The Country Master was surprised. When he had heard the news, he had sent someone to invite her over. However, he hadn’t expected Shangguan Family to have found out and knew the real ident.i.ty of the Ghost Doctor was the Princess of the Phoenix Empire, and said that she was Shangguan Family’s niece?
