Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 530

"It's nothing, but you should be careful too."

Hannya said to Ayanokouji, her beautiful face filled with a smile.

Prajna has a cute appearance, with a head of light yellow, fluffy hair and a pair of slender, beautiful eyes.

This is a handsome young man who is no less beautiful than any pretty girl.

It will surely make countless people's hearts flutter.

Of course, Ayanokouji was completely unaffected by the situation.

First of all, he doesn't like men.

Secondly, he also knew that Hannya was only helping him because of his relationship with Hikigaya.

“He doesn’t seem like the type to cause trouble.” Hachiman sighed.

A bad feeling arose in his heart, but he still couldn't help but offer his advice.

He had met Koenji once before.

He was all too familiar with that kind of arrogance that came from the very core of his being.

Even without looking closely, he could guess it.

However, we should not harbor malice towards others because of this.

It's enough for us to treat each other as strangers.

Ayanokoji: "Perhaps, I hope so."

He originally had no good or bad feelings towards Koenji.

It was just like seeing a stranger.

To everyone's surprise, this person approached with an attitude that was neither humble nor arrogant.

He instinctively thought of the purpose behind this, assuming it would be most beneficial to Koenji Temple.

The guess is that she wanted to build a relationship with him, or more accurately, use him.

Unfortunately, Ayanokouji felt that communicating with Koenji would only cause him distress.

Especially when I think of Koenji's still somewhat self-centered and self-satisfied personality, it's quite perplexing.

In addition, you can see the disdain and arrogance in his bones at a glance.

Ayanokouji firmly believes that her master, Kousaka Kyosuke, dislikes this kind of person.

He immediately gave them a taste of their power!

"Since we've already offended him, let's see if we can get to the bottom of this later."

"His father was a straight man, and he was a junior official in his youth."

Having quietly made his plans, Ayanokouji continued to check the surrounding situation with Hikigaya and Hannya.

A trail of footprints was left on the pristine snow...

At noon.

After observing that there were no problems with the relief efforts in the suburbs and within the city, Kyosuke Kosaka took Kagura back with him.

The principle of ensuring that everyone receives equal treatment should not be forgotten.

Gently heal Kagura's soul, lull her to sleep, and entrust her to Fujishikibu's care.

Kyosuke Kousaka then began searching for partners one by one.

Today, Shizuko, Chitanda, Yotohime, and Hakuro, who are rarely home, are the main targets of Kyosuke Kousaka's comforting efforts.

Silently, they divided the two groups into "career group" and "shikigami group" in their minds.

Kyosuke Kosaka first tried to appease Shizuko and Chitanda.

Especially Jingzi, who successfully helped alleviate poverty!

"...Kyo, Kyosuke-sama, could you please slow down a bit?"

"Sometimes it's hard to control."

Kyosuke Kosaka said in a calm tone.

He kept recalling how thin and frail Shizuko looked when he first met her, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind.

Then look out at the ripple-like waves.

My mind suddenly went blank, and I became extremely angry.

He wants to transform into an unscientific perpetual motion machine!

Panting, Shizuko could only look to Chitanda, who was hugging an eggplant pillow and blushing, for help.

"Please, Eru, I'm really about to die..."

Although he didn't say anything, his pleading eyes were genuine.

Chitanda's cheeks flushed: "Kyosuke-sama, I want to too—"

Call ~

Shizuko breathed a sigh of relief, finally free from her predicament.

Before she could even process the sudden emptiness, she crawled forward to the low table.

He picked up a cup filled with warm water and gulped it down.

Only after drinking warm water did she feel like visiting her husband, Kyosuke Kousaka, and her friend, Chitanda.

Seeing that Chitanda was in good condition, Shizuko felt relieved and looked down at herself.

After drinking a glass of warm water, she felt warm currents flowing through her body, making her feel warm and comfortable.

The glistening beads of sweat seeping from her skin made Shizuko feel embarrassed.

"This is bad, I have a tendency to sweat a lot..."

Shizuko, who had already sensed a faint sour smell, was extremely embarrassed.

Thinking back to how she had just torn and chewed, she felt incredibly ashamed.

Before Shizuko could think further, a long, drawn-out warbling sound came from the nightingale.

Shizuko, who was about to grab a towel to wipe herself, felt nervous and looked up at the source of the sound.

The result was that they encountered a ferocious beast that seemed to have come from mythology...

"Lord Kyosuke, please—"

Shizuko, feeling the solid weight from top to bottom, felt powerless.

whatever.

Half an hour later, Kousaka Kyosuke had one arm around each of them and they started chatting naturally.

"It's been really cold lately. The changes in the yin and yang energies of heaven and earth have made the weather unpredictable..."

Shizuko spoke of the truth with a sigh.

Kyosuke Kosaka asked, "How is Nomura doing?"

Nomura, a village near the Water Department.

He planned to make this village the subjects of his territory.

Although there are fewer than five hundred people, they are all very honest and good candidates to lead the people.

Shizuko replied, "It seems that this year's harvest is not very good, making it a difficult time for them. Lady Suyi is already helping them out."

Chitanda added softly, "The main support is clothing; the cold in winter is more deadly than hunger..."

They had already heard Shizuko's explanation.

She learned that cold weather increases blood viscosity and constricts peripheral blood vessels, placing a huge burden on cardiopulmonary function.

They also understand that cold weather can trigger diseases such as arteriosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and aortic fibrosis.

She deeply understands that this winter has been full of challenges for the public.

"The nobles prefer to grow more grain on the land than cotton," Kyosuke Kosaka said with a smile.

Shizuko secretly pouted: "Lord Kyosuke, you should be encouraging us right now..."

Knowing all along that Kyosuke Kousaka loved to tease people, she gradually became less reserved.

I prefer to speak my mind more often.

“Words of encouragement?” Kousaka Kyosuke pondered. “How about letting Zhuangzi plant cotton? Even if planting at this time is quite late.”

Shizuko's eyes sparkled: "Kyosuke-sama, we can plant a different kind of tree!"

Chitanda's large eyes were also shining as he stared intently at her.

"Shizuko, do you have any other plants that can replace cotton?"

"It's not exactly a substitute for cotton, but it can be used to some extent to protect against the cold."

Immediately afterward, Shizuko began to talk about information related to the paper mulberry tree—
