Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 115

Even a sleeping nine-lived cat can grab her two paws and talk for a long time.

In addition, his outstanding martial arts skills greatly reduced the pressure on everyone.

Recently, Nino, Miku, and Itsuki have all been much more relaxed.

Not to mention Xiangzi herself.

She discovered a fact that was both funny and frustrating—Kirisu Mafuyu was a little disappointed.

It seems I should find an opportunity to tell my husband later.

Xiangzi thought to herself.

"..." Wan Sui chuckled softly.

I vaguely sensed that my niece still harbored some aversion towards Qianhua.

After two days of analysis, she has roughly guessed some of the answers.

Perhaps he was worried that Chika's involvement would affect his life.

Identity? Status? Or something else?

Finally, Wan Sui suddenly guessed that it might be... interest.

She knew it.

Xiangzi is a researcher specializing in classical literature.

I have a deep love for classical literature!

Wan Sui knew her daughter Qianhua's personality quite well.

It is indeed possible that this could affect Xiangzi's interest.

Therefore, I specifically instructed my daughter.

As for her daughter's grievances, Wan Sui didn't have a good solution.

We can't let this whole thing fail.

Let's make the future worse.

Wan Sui, who has always been pragmatic, was unwilling to do this.

If she had any other choice, she would gladly suffer in her daughter's place.

The problem is that there is no solution.

The Taoist priest, the future Grand Chancellor, everyone's ancestor... This is an awe-inspiring presence that no one dares to defy.

Even if we've never met.

Huh?

Wan Sui couldn't help but look at Xiangzi and ask:

"Xiangzi, has Lord Kyosuke told you anything about Master Dao?"

Xiangzi looked unhappy.

"From a standpoint of opinion, whether I knew it or not, I shouldn't have revealed this kind of thing."

Taoist priest?

Of course Xiangzi knows.

Her husband did occasionally talk to her about it.

But information about such important figures is classified!

How could I possibly reveal that?

"So you knew after all..." Wan Sui was slightly surprised.

At the same time, he realized once again that his niece held a very high position in Kyosuke Kousaka's life.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have said something like this.

"Alright, let's rest for a bit and hold the ceremony later."

"Row."

Seeing that Xiangzi was unhappy, Wan Suirou smiled.

She didn't mind Xiangzi making that gesture for her.

In her opinion, this is a good thing.

Because he genuinely regarded her as a close relative.

If one conceals their true emotions from beginning to end.

She actually needs to seriously consider whether or not to let Chika go...

Today, Chika herself simply greeted Kyoko briefly.

They then grabbed Kirisu Mafuyu and dragged her away as if in a frenzy.

The two were in a private room.

Chika asked Kirisu Mafuyu all sorts of questions with great interest.

"Sister Mafuyu, how kindly does Lord Kyosuke treat you?"

"...No, I don't know that."

"Well, you can at least tell me about your date with Kyosuke-sama."

"He just strolled around the market and bought me some jewelry..."

Is there really a date?

Chika's eyes widened, her curiosity about this matter growing even stronger.

Although Kirisu Mafuyu is indeed beautiful.

But she knew that many noble ladies were also very beautiful and had excellent temperaments.

Don't most men prefer aristocratic ladies?

Therefore, the rumors told by the maids and servants are true!

—The inspector in charge of security in the right capital preferred peasant girls and maids…

It's simply the greatest miracle of our time!

I really want to meet him.

It definitely won't be too ugly.

"Kyoko, who likes The Tale of Genji, is a sucker for good-looking people, so Kyosuke must be very handsome."

"Even though Lord Kyosuke has recently been dismissed, he will still be highly valued by Master Dao in the future..."

Qianhua listened and pondered.

It can be a little lonely to suddenly come into this world with your parents.

She is just an ordinary person.

In this era, it's not just about being at the age for dating, but also the age for marriage.

So we still need to consider all kinds of issues in a normal way.

Chika still wants to consider a relationship with marriage as the ultimate goal, and to make it perfect.

She hoped her future husband would be better.

My dream of marrying a sumo wrestler has to be sadly abandoned.

Well!

Kyosuke Kosaka secretly suppressed the urge to sneeze.

He then smiled and spoke to Fujiwara Daichi.

"Your Excellency, I have already been suspended from my official post, so please do not look down on the humble gift I brought."

"You're too kind, Lord Kyosuke. I've heard about your composure yesterday, and I admire you greatly."

"Your Highness's praise is far too much. My youthful arrogance and ignorance have been mistaken for composure, and I am ashamed of myself..."

Kyosuke Kosaka responded politely.

He pondered the speed at which this kind of information spread within officialdom.

The saying goes, "Good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels a thousand miles."

Even Fujiwara Daichi had heard about how he had just offended the son of the regent.

Could it have been passed on to the palace all at once?

I feel my reputation is trending downwards.

As for Fujiwara Daichi's praise?
