Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

It seems more like it was man-made.

The so-called "mysterious phenomena"

It is the famous pipa from the Tang Dynasty.

Kyosuke Kosaka had heard of it.

It is said that this pipa has an excellent tone.

"Lord Akiko is skilled in discussing astronomical phenomena, and His Majesty often stays in Lord Akiko's palace..."

"I see, that's something worth paying attention to."

Kousaka Kyosuke said with a smile.

With the disappearance of the celestial phenomena, the chances of the Taoist priest's eldest daughter being favored have decreased.

It feels more like the work of Yi Zhou's forces or the remnants of Dao Jian's forces.

Kyosuke Kousaka understood this perfectly well.

The remaining forces of the two previous Kanpaku were still quite formidable.

Initially, it was Daolong's eldest son, Yizhou, who was fighting against his two uncles, Daojian and Daochang.

Subsequently, it became a situation where Ichiju and Michinaga were fighting against Michikane, who succeeded as Kanpaku.

Now, they have become the remnants of the forces of Ichiju and the deceased Michikasa, fighting against the Michikasa.

Several months have passed.

The political situation has changed again and again.

The Kamo family, who had been frequently taking sides, were completely bewildered!

They're probably thinking to themselves, "They're killing one after another!"

"Yes, it would be even better if Lady Akiko could continue to receive His Majesty's favor."

Fujiwara Daichi said with a forced smile.

Upon seeing Kyosuke Kosaka, he felt even more embarrassed and ashamed.

A few days ago, I was scolded by my youngest brother, and then I saw the disappointed looks in my brothers' eyes.

He knew he couldn't afford to make another mistake.

From the perspective of that era, the second daughter, Chika's, behavior was extremely excessive.

Even though Kyosuke Kosaka himself seemed to be very magnanimous in ignoring it...

But that's just "appearances".

Fujiwara Daichi should take responsibility for his past mistakes.

Even after being beaten, he honestly explained in detail the situation of Kousaka Kyosuke and Fujiwara Chika.

Then, after the brothers' diligent analysis... they actually found their two daughters?!

"Kyosuke-sama!"

"Kyosuke-sama!"

Two more people came in one after another.

They are Fujiwara Daichi's two younger brothers—Fujiwara Masataka and Fujiwara Masakazu.

"You've come too." Kousaka Kyosuke greeted the two with a friendly smile.

However, their heartbeats were accelerating at an alarming rate.

Kousaka Kyosuke: "..."

what happened?

Have I become some kind of monster?

"Lord Kyosuke, we are aware of what happened between you and Chika. Please forgive us."

"We will marry our daughter to you!"

Fujiwara Masataka and Fujiwara Masakazu paused for a moment before speaking in succession.

Fujiwara Daichi reacted very quickly upon seeing this.

"Lord Kyosuke! Please forgive Chika for what she did to you before. We are willing to do anything to make amends!"

Fujiwara Daichi spoke both loudly and sincerely.

When Kousaka Kyosuke saw the overweight middle-aged men around him, he immediately knelt down.

"...Don't kneel yet, let's sit down and talk properly."

As he raised his hand to stop the men from kneeling before him, Kyosuke Kosaka felt an intense toothache.

You're going to bow down immediately, right?

It seems the situation is very critical.

"Did the Taoist priest find out?"

Kyosuke Kosaka suddenly had this thought.

In particular, Fujiwara no Tomoyuki just asked this question.

Considering Fujiwara Daichi's delayed promotion, Kousaka Kyosuke did indeed have such a guess.

The possibility is not small.

Although the Taoist priest had not yet become the governor, his power was no different from that of the governor.

It's not difficult to assign an official position with a rank of five.

"Sit down." Despite his racing thoughts, Kyosuke Kousaka repeated the instruction.

Fujiwara Daichi, Fujiwara Masataka, and Fujiwara Masakazu looked at each other in bewilderment.

In the end, he sat down with a respectful expression.

"Has something happened?" Kyosuke Kousaka asked again.

Fujiwara Masataka replied:

"Reporting to Your Excellency, we only admitted our mistakes after recognizing them. As for recently... nothing has happened."

Kousaka Kyosuke's lips twitched.

Nothing happened.

Suddenly, I remembered the situation—

At the very least, this situation is quite delicate right now.

For example, before Fujiwara Daichi is promoted, someone will usually greet him.

It's similar to how an employee works hard and accumulates seniority at a company, until the boss is finally moved and stops making empty promises!

So, before the promotion, the boss patted the worker on the shoulder and said, "Keep up the good work!"

obviously.

Fujiwara Daichi did not have this situation.

Although he was not involved in the shady dealings, he still had a relationship with the Taoist priest.

Well, to be honest, Kyosuke Kosaka definitely did it because of me!

all in all.

When Fujiwara Daichi was promoted, the person in charge of assigning him the official position would always inform him in advance, no matter what.

Then Fujiwara Daichi will probably come over to report to him and invite him to dinner.

As a result, it didn't.

Nothing happened.

"I understand, I forgive you, I will stay tonight."

Seeing that the three brothers' hearts were beating at their fastest, Kyosuke Kosaka had to calm them down first.

He didn't want to do anything about emergency care.

If one of them has a heart attack, in the end, it's themselves who will suffer.

"...Lord Kyosuke, please marry our daughter."

"I can say that sincerely," said Masakazu Fujiwara.

Kousaka Kyosuke almost laughed in anger. "You just say you'll marry me like that?"

I quickly considered the worst-case scenario at this moment.

He glanced at the expressions of the people around him, his anxiety growing stronger.

I also noticed my heart starting to race...

Kousaka Kyosuke didn't delay either.
