Nirvana Phoenix Song
Chapter 21: Restoring the Government
The news that the rebellion in the east had been quelled quickly spread back to the imperial city, shocking the entire Feng Kingdom. The government and the people were amazed at Feng Tangyue's achievements, and the people regarded her as the "Phoenix Girl of Nirvana" who saved the Feng Kingdom. The ministers who were originally skeptical had to re-examine the strength and determination of the third princess.
In the court, the emperor personally held a triumphal ceremony for Feng Tangyue. When she wore armor and led the anti-rebellion troops into the imperial city, the people lined the streets to welcome her and cheered. The long-lost peace of Feng Kingdom finally came again.
But Feng Tangyue's expression remained solemn. She knew that although the rebellion had been quelled, it was only a temporary victory. The roots of the old forces had not yet been completely eradicated, and the road to reform was still full of thorns.
In the court, the emperor was delighted. He stepped down from the dragon throne and said to Feng Tangyue, "Third Princess, you lived up to my trust, quelled the rebellion, and preserved the peace of Feng State. I am grateful for this."
Feng Tangyue bowed slightly and said humbly: "Your Majesty, this is my duty. Although the rebellion has been quelled, there are still many challenges in the future of Fengguo, and our reform is far from over."
The emperor nodded, his face thoughtful, "Indeed. Although the Anti-Phoenix Alliance has been disintegrated, there are still many local forces that are dissatisfied. If they are not completely eliminated, I am afraid it will be difficult to ensure the stability of the court."
The civil and military officials in the court nodded one after another. Although they supported Feng Tangyue's reform, they were still worried about the radical pace of the reform. They were in awe of Feng Tangyue's determination and courage, but the resistance to the reform was also obvious.
At this time, the left prime minister walked out slowly, bowed and said: "Your Highness is right. But I think that reforms should not be too hasty, especially for those local families who have doubts about the reforms. If they can be properly appeased, perhaps more conflicts can be reduced."
Feng Tangyue's eyes fell on Zuo Xiang, and she understood the concerns of these conservatives. She knew that the pace of reform could not be forced blindly, but compromise was not a long-term solution.
She said softly, "Lord Zuo Xiang has a point, but we must also be clear that the resistance of local forces stems from the fear of losing power. Compromise may temporarily appease them, but it will bring more hidden dangers to our reform. The court needs to make its position clear and not allow these people to stir up trouble again."
Zuo Xiang nodded, but he still had some doubts in his heart. He knew that Feng Tangyue's determination could not be shaken, so he returned to his original position.
Seeing Feng Tangyue's determination, the emperor showed some worry on his face, but he also understood that only an iron-fisted approach could truly stabilize the situation in Feng State. He nodded and said, "I believe in the judgment of the Third Princess. Next, you will take full charge of this matter and completely eliminate the remaining forces of the Anti-Feng Alliance."
Feng Tangyue bowed solemnly, her eyes firm, "I will definitely fulfill my mission."

After the meeting, Feng Tangyue returned to the cold palace. Facing the mountains of secret reports and intelligence, she felt the burden on her shoulders getting heavier and heavier. Although the rebellion had been quelled, she knew that those forces in the court who were dissatisfied with the reform would not give up easily. Especially the remnants of the Anti-Phoenix Alliance, they may have been lurking in every corner of the court, waiting for an opportunity to act.
"Xiao Shi," Feng Tangyue said in a deep voice, "You continue to send out spies and keep a close eye on the movements of the ministers in the court and the local families. Any disturbance should not be ignored."
Xiao Shi nodded immediately, his eyes full of worry, "Your Highness, our reforms have caused too many people to be disgusted. Especially those local supernatural families, they have deep roots, if they are not completely eliminated, I am afraid they will become a greater hidden danger."
Feng Tangyue knew this very well, but she also understood that if she rashly touched the foundations of these families, it would inevitably lead to a greater counterattack. Therefore, she had to be careful to deal with these potential threats while steadily advancing reforms.
She took a deep breath, turned around and walked to the desk, picked up the latest intelligence and began to read. Suddenly, her eyes stopped on a report about the northern border. The report mentioned that the supernatural families in the north showed signs of unusual gathering and seemed to be planning some large-scale action.
Feng Tangyue frowned slightly, "The north? It seems that the remnants of the Anti-Phoenix Alliance are no longer satisfied with lurking within the court. They are trying to gather more forces in the local area."
Xiao Shi also saw the information and said solemnly, "Your Highness, the supernatural families in the north have always been a thorny problem. They are not under the direct jurisdiction of the court and have their own supernatural armies. If they really unite, they may form a new rebellious force."
Feng Tangyue nodded, her eyes burning with anger. She realized that this might be the last stand of the remnants of the Anti-Phoenix Alliance, but this counterattack must not be allowed to grow.
"Get ready, I'm going to the north myself." Feng Tangyue said in a firm tone without any hesitation.
Xiao Shi looked at her in surprise. "Your Highness, are you going there in person? But the situation in the north is complicated. If there are any changes, your safety——"
Feng Tangyue waved her hand, interrupting Xiaoshi's dissuasion, "Precisely because of the complexity, I must go in person. Only in this way can the problem be completely solved. Let the court know that I will not give these rebellious forces any breathing space."
Her determination was as blazing as fire, and her eyes were filled with endless determination. Feng Tangyue was not only trying to quell the rebellion, but also paving the way for the future of Feng State. She knew that only by completely eradicating these hidden dangers could the reform of Feng State be truly stable.
"Give courage to the future, rather than the courage to retreat." Feng Tangyue said softly, her heart full of firm belief.
-
A few days later, Feng Tangyue led an elite team and quietly set off for the northern border. She did not make a big fanfare, but chose to act secretly, avoiding all eyes and ears. She knew that this battle was not only a contest of strength, but also a game of wisdom and strategy.
The future of Feng Country is in her control. She will continue to ignite the hope of this land with the fire of Nirvana, remove all obstacles, and let Feng Country revive its government and move towards a new light.
