Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 1249

Then came the news that Sei Shonagon had married Kousaka Kyosuke.

The current interpretation is that "Sei Shonagon has been recruited by the Master and has betrayed his master."

all in all.

Sei Shonagon was wrong no matter what.

Kyosuke Kosaka simply ignored him.

Yang was simply instructed to warn the servants and maids in the outer quarters to be careful with their words and actions.

Do not believe or spread rumors.

Otherwise, the iron fist of justice will eventually fall heavily.

"See you later, I'll have a drink with everyone first."

"Ah."

Sei Shonagon, whose wedding was witnessed by everyone, smiled slightly at Kousaka Kyosuke.

Then, with Komachi's help, they walked towards the sleeping quarters.

The luxurious, elaborate, and beautifully colored kimono was quite heavy, so Komachi had to help her up.

After watching Sei Shonagon and Komachi leave, Kousaka Kyosuke turned back to drink with the others.

Call ~

After being helped away from the main hall by Komachi, Sei Shonagon breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Does Sister Nuozi feel very tired?"

"A little bit, though. Since getting married, I don't really want to talk to other men."

Sei Shonagon speaks the truth.

However, Fujiwara no Yukinari, Fujiwara no Michitsuna, and Minamoto no Yorihira, who were of high status, were present at the wedding.

Since Sei Shonagon knew these people, they naturally had to exchange a few words.

Now that the wedding ceremony is over, I finally don't have to talk to them anymore.

"Sister Nuozi is so conservative."

Komachi said in surprise.

He wasn't overly reserved while speaking.

After all, she knew very well that Sei Shonagon, like Kousaka Kyosuke, disliked her being like this.

Sei Shonagon shook her head.

"It's not that I'm conservative, I just feel that from now on, talking to Kyosuke-sama, one man, is enough."

Komachi blinked, hesitated for a moment, and finally voiced the question that had been on her mind.

"But, Kyosuke-sama said he'll be taking Noko-neechan to the manor later, so she'll inevitably have some contact with other men."

“That’s different. The other people in the manor know my identity, so they will definitely try their best not to contact or communicate with me.”

"What you say does make a lot of sense..."

"Does Komachi want to come along? I'll take some pretty pictures of you. Click~"

Sei Shonagon suddenly made a rectangular gesture with both hands.

He even imitated the sound of some kind of tool.

Komachi couldn't help but giggle.

"That will have to wait a while; Komachi's mother is going to give birth soon~"

"Ah, that must have been hard work. I wish you a healthy and intelligent younger brother, Komachi."

"I accept your good words."

"I hope you'll have a hard time in the days to come, Komachi... Don't overwork yourself."

Sei Shonagon, who immediately understood the situation, gently advised.

"Komachi has an older brother, but I remember that brother worked for Lord Raipai and held a fairly high-ranking position. Komachi's father also worked under Lord Kyosuke and held an official position..."

Having worked in the palace for quite some time, Sei Shonagon naturally understood what the other relatives in the Komachi family might be facing.

From the perspective of a normal noble family.

Ideally, Komachi's older brother should start his own family, and then Komachi's father should let his second son inherit the family business.

In this way, the benefits can be maximized.

However, since Komachi's father did not have a second son, there would inevitably be other people trying to sell his wife.

That would be very bad.

No, I can't think about it anymore.

The people in the Komachi family should know what to do; she doesn't need to tell them what to do.

"Sister Nuozi is so gentle."

"No, just like Kyosuke-sama, I don't like it when people say I'm gentle."

Sei Shonagon covered his mouth and smiled.

Komachi paused for a moment, then laughed along.

"Nuko-neechan really likes Kyosuke-sama, she mentions him every few sentences..."

The most famous female singer and writer in the country's history was so fond of the man she also admired.

This is really amazing to think about!

The perspective shifts back to the main hall—

"Oh? So the gift includes ham. That's a good thing."

Hearing that Minamoto no Yorihira's gift included food that May had been longing for, Kousaka Kyosuke was especially happy.

Minamoto no Yorihei was very pleased: "So Kyosuke, you like ham."

Kyosuke Kosaka: "I like all delicious food."

Fujiwara Yukinari said unhappily, "My silk is also very rare, a superb treasure that many women in the palace admire."

"Thank you for that too."

"Their attitude was very cold."

Fujiwara Yukinari drawled out his words to Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kyosuke Kosaka felt a chill and quickly said, "I am truly grateful, grateful from the bottom of my heart!"

The male voice, which sounded like that of a cross-dresser, was drawn out and had a very delicate tone.

There's a reason why Kyosuke Kosaka felt the fist was so hard.

Fortunately, the man in front of her was an acquaintance or friend.

He wasn't sure if he could have restrained himself if it were someone else.

"Hahaha……"

Fujiwara no Michitsuna, having noticed something amiss, chuckled to himself.

Kyosuke Kosaka glared at him, annoyed.

"It's better if this guy doesn't come; he always likes to gloat and watch the show."

at the same time.

Others also noticed the lively activity within the small circle of Kousaka Kyosuke, Minamoto no Yorihira, Fujiwara no Yukinari, Fujiwara no Michitsuna, and others.

Compared to these high-ranking and powerful figures, those of lower status naturally formed different small circles on the other side.

These people are all around 40 years old on average.

Actually, they were all Kousaka Kyosuke's fathers-in-law.

Maruo, Shogo, Hiroto, Fujiwara Tomoyuki...

They were all middle-aged.

Chika's uncle, Fujiwara Masakazu, sat with them, his feelings quite complicated.

Even if Masakazu Fujiwara didn't want to think about it.

But for no apparent reason, I start to imagine what it would be like if I were treated the same way they were.

By the way.

The two older brothers, Fujiwara Daichi and Fujiwara Masataka, were entertained by Shijo Makoto.

Fujiwara Masakazu, whose status was below the fifth rank and who was not worthy of being in a high-class setting, naturally could not stay with them.

Otherwise, it would be presumptuous and repulsive.

"I think cantaloupe tastes better; it's very sweet."
