Hinata Kaze was very busy during this period, and he only managed to find time to attend and offer his congratulations on the day of Fuuka Koyuki's succession ceremony.
The enthronement ceremony was magnificent and solemn, with a group of wise ministers and righteous men discussing the state of the country and making decisions in a harmonious atmosphere.
Hinata Kaze appeared as Yukage to offer his congratulations, and what he sensed was a sense of alienation and hostility hidden beneath the fear. However, he did not react, but simply smiled strangely and quietly watched the harmonious scene unfold.
After that, Hyuga Kaze returned to Yukigami Village to continue taking stock of his belongings.
Although the Snow Village is small, its internal personnel, supplies, ninjutsu resources, chakra armor data, and other information are quite complex, requiring supervision to ensure that the Snow Village members are properly categorized and registered.
Also, when Hyuga Kaze went on the expedition, he took most of the Snow Ninja with him, but there were still quite a few Snow Ninja left behind in the capital of the Land of Snow, the Snow Ninja Village, and some key towns in the country. Hyuga Kaze had to arrange for people to capture them one by one and plant curse seals on them.
Speaking of this cursed seal, it was originally created by Hyuga Kaze by combining the Caged Bird Seal, the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques, and the Flying Thunder God Seal. The version imprinted by the Snow Ninjas does indeed only have the functions of location tracking and preventing the leakage of Hyuga Kaze's information.
Other similar cursed seals that enhance physical sensitivity are still under development. Don't misunderstand, Hyuga Kaze wants to improve sensitivity and enhance the perception of natural energy. In the future, the cursed seals can be used to train Hyuga Seika, Yuhi Kurenai, and others to explore Sage Mode. It's very serious.
While Hyuga Kaze was busy reorganizing Yukigami Village, the newly appointed Daimyo Kazehana Koyuki was also extremely busy.
After she unlocked the so-called treasure of the Snow Country and discovered the truth about the geothermal generator, Kazahana Koyuki decided to continue developing this unfinished product and build the Snow Country into a "Spring Country" where spring lasts all year round.
Unfortunately, just as Fuuka Koyuki was full of ambition and preparing to build the Snow Kingdom, reality dealt her a heavy blow.
While Feng Hua Nu Tao was undoubtedly the only one in the Snow Country who held power over the military, finances, and government, there were also quite a few local tyrants, such as families and companies, operating behind the scenes.
They were previously suppressed by the wind and waves and could not stand out, which is why they contacted Asama Santayu and formed a resistance organization. Although they did not play a significant role before, they can do more now.
First, the loyal righteous men that Asama Santayu had previously contacted disagreed, believing that it was a complete waste of manpower and resources. Later, even Asama Santayu himself began to show some opposition under the indirect encouragement of some relatives and friends.
After finally issuing the order and starting to mobilize resources and personnel, absurd things happened, such as warehouses catching fire and being destroyed by floods. This forced Feng Hua Xiaoxue to postpone the implementation of the plan and prepare to accumulate more strength before proceeding.
However, other problems soon followed.
Many veteran officials from the era of early snow and early flowers have emerged, claiming that they have endured humiliation and hardship for many years in order to uphold orthodoxy and have been lying low. Now that they have successfully restored the country, they should be promoted and given titles. Some even clamored that the Snow Kingdom should appoint ministers to govern it.
They openly clamored, "We've sacrificed so much for the restoration of our nation, shouldn't we enjoy ourselves now? What's the point of continuing to invest in researching that damned geothermal generator? The evil Feng Hua Nu Tao has exploited us for so many years, the new Daming cannot do something that benefits the people at their expense!"
Some ministers suggested that Feng Hua Xiaoxue should rule by doing nothing and entrust the affairs of state to knowledgeable and loyal officials like them. After all, how could a little girl who has not received a good education know how to govern a country?
It would be better to continue being an actress in the Land of Fire. The money earned can be used for further research, which would also showcase the elegance of the Queen of the Land of Snow to the outside world. As for the Land of Snow, we, your humble servants, will suffer some losses and help you govern it.
Then came demands for compensation for the properties seized by Feng Hua Nu Tao, accusations that rival families were affiliated with Feng Hua Nu Tao and aided and abetted his evil deeds, and reports that others had leaked Feng Hua Xiao Xue's whereabouts to the traitorous Feng Hua Nu Tao.
There are also some companies that claim to have extremely high technological levels and can help Feng Hua Xiaoxue research geothermal generators. They ask Feng Hua Xiaoxue to hand over the generators to them for disassembly and research, and then invest hundreds of billions of taels of silver in in-depth research.
Suddenly, all sorts of strange and monstrous things emerged in the Snow Country, leaving Kazahana Koyuki exhausted and overwhelmed.
Hinata Kaze had anticipated this situation and was happily enjoying the melon seeds in the Snow Village.
What kind of conspiracy theories haven't I heard in my past life? Given the situation in the Land of Snow before, it's hard to say how many people in Asama Santayu's organization genuinely wanted to restore the country, how many were using Fuuka Koyuki as a bargaining chip to gain benefits, and how many were just waiting to reap the rewards.
Even if, according to the original story, Kazahana Koyuki successfully restored her country with the help of Konoha, would the matter end there? Could a weak woman, leading a few dozen old and weak samurai, really suppress a country?
This is a fairy tale, isn't it? How could a girl with no soldiers, no power, and no property possibly subdue those local forces? It's only because of the deterrent power of the Land of Fire that they are temporarily kept quiet.
Hinata Kaze was comfortably slumped in his chair, holding a glass of soda, pondering the situation of Kazeka Koyuki, when a voice came from outside the door, "Lord Yukinagakure, the Daimyo Kazeka Koyuki has secretly arrived and wishes to meet with you."
"They've finally arrived," Hinata Kaze said, downing his soda in one gulp. "Take the Daimyo to my bedroom!"
The bedroom lights were soft and warm, illuminating everything in a dreamlike way. Feng Hua Xiaoxue sat on the edge of the bed, her delicate face flushed with a faint shyness.
Hinata Kaze pushed open the door, his gaze immediately drawn to Fuuka Koyuki's pretty face as he slowly entered the room.
"I wonder what instructions the Daimyo has for Yukigami Village?"
With a gentle look in her eyes, Kazeka Koyuki glanced at Hinata Kaze, then lowered her eyes and said in a soft voice with a slight tremor, "I've come to thank you for your help."
Hinata Kaze approached Fuuka Koyuki with a half-smile, his gaze deep and enigmatic. In a low voice, he said, "You came just to express your gratitude?"
Feng Hua Xiaoxue was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised her head. Her expression was calm and her demeanor dignified. When she spoke, her tone was firm and confident: "No, I'm doing this for our future."
Hinata Kaze was slightly taken aback; it seemed he had underestimated her! Compared to before, Kazahana Koyuki had undergone a complete transformation, and she was truly remarkable.
Feng Hua Xiao Xue continued, "There are far too many parasites in the Snow Kingdom. I need to rely on your prestige to stabilize the situation."
Hyuga Kaze sat down close to Fuuka Koyuki's voluptuous and graceful body, naturally taking her hand in his. "And what do I get in return? According to custom, ninjas don't interfere in politics."
Fuuka Koyuki let Hinata Kaze hold her delicate hand, turned to look at him, a sly glint in her eyes: "You can have me."
After saying that, she suddenly rushed forward excitedly and hugged Hinata Kaze tightly, as if drawing strength from his body.
