Nirvana Phoenix Song

"I say, Xiaoshi, don't you think the atmosphere in the palace recently is like the depressing feeling before the rain?" Feng Tangyue leaned lazily against the window, looking at the distant horizon. The wind in the cold palace always blows stronger than other places, bringing an inexplicable chill.

"Your Highness, please don't mention it. The wind in the cold palace has made my heart tremble." Xiao Shi poured tea for Feng Tangyue while muttering, "You don't know, I didn't sleep much last night. The cat outside was meowing like a ghost. It was so scary."

Feng Tangyue's lips curled up slightly, and she couldn't help laughing: "You are so timid, but you can still stay in this palace for so long, you are really gifted."

"Hey, Your Highness, you really praise me. I am only able to survive because I followed you." Xiao Shi responded happily, with a proud look on his face, as if his "will to survive" could win an award.

Feng Tangyue took a sip of tea and suddenly said seriously, "But let's talk business. What new discoveries have you made about the Queen's recent movements?"

Xiao Shi's expression tensed up, and he immediately became serious: "Your Highness, the Queen has indeed been restless recently. She has begun to contact the top leaders of Mingfeng. I heard that...she is going to make a real move."

"Oh?" Feng Tangyue's eyes lit up, and she put down her teacup, her tone full of interest, "It seems that she really can't hold her temper anymore, and is ready to be ruthless to me."

"That's right, Your Majesty, do you think we should make some preparations in advance?" Xiao Shi asked nervously. It was obvious that he knew better than anyone that the Queen's methods were never simple.

Feng Tangyue smiled lightly, with a hint of coldness in her eyes: "Don't worry, let her do it. She has just started this game."

That night, the night in the cold palace was still dark, but this dull atmosphere seemed to be mixed with something unusual.

"Your Highness, Lord Chu Yan is here." Xiao Shi quietly ran to Feng Tangyue and said in a low voice.

Feng Tangyue smiled and waved her hand gently: "Please ask him to come in."

Chu Yan was dressed in a dark robe, and walked lightly, as if the gloom in the palace had never affected him in the slightest. When he walked into the cold palace and saw Feng Tangyue, the corners of his mouth slightly raised: "Third Princess, how come you have time to invite me here today?"

"What? Not welcome?" Feng Tangyue raised her eyebrows and looked at Chu Yan's calm expression, she couldn't help but feel a little amused.

"How dare I? It's my honor to be favored by the Third Princess." Chu Yan sat down and responded calmly, but the smile in his eyes made Feng Tangyue feel that this guy was clearly teasing her.

"Stop talking nonsense." Feng Tangyue snorted coldly, but the smile on her face betrayed her mood. She looked at Chu Yan, her eyes turned serious, "The queen has already started to make a move, I guess you know it too."

Chu Yan nodded, his eyes darkened slightly: "Well, Mingfeng's people have indeed appeared frequently around the queen recently. It is not clear what they are planning for the time being."

Feng Tangyue narrowed her eyes and tapped the table lightly: "She will definitely not just stop at testing. The next step... should be to take direct action."

Chu Yan chuckled, with a hint of amusement in his eyes: "So how are you going to deal with it? Sitting and waiting for death is not your style."

Feng Tangyue smiled, a sly look flashed in her eyes: "Of course not. I'm just waiting for her to make a move, so that she knows - this stone of mine is not so easy to chew!"
