Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 288

All the hard work to elevate her daughter's status resulted in her becoming a maid.

Qianzhi rolled her eyes.

"This is nothing to be ashamed of, just like the most famous Murasaki Shikibu and Sei Shonagon in history."

The daughters of nobles entered the inner palace and became maids.

This isn't something to be too ashamed of.

Similarly, noblewomen of lower birth could also enter the mansions of great nobles to serve.

There's no shame in that.

"Why even Hui has to..." Fujiwara Tomoyuki murmured, a bitter expression on his face.

"Sincerity."

"We should also discuss this with them a little..."

"I'll be fine if I come."

Chikushi didn't give Fujiwara Tomoyuki a chance to continue making excuses and turned to leave.

The original intention was for Hongmei to marry into the family.

Later, through Hongmei's connections, we'll help Hui find an even better husband.

But this time, through closer observation...

Inside the carriage, she and her two daughters listened quietly to her husband's conversation with Kyosuke Kosaka...

She believes it's really hard to find a man as good as Kyosuke Kousaka!

Even knowing that he had multiple wives and concubines, Qianzhi did not hesitate at all.

She understands perfectly well.

In this day and age, don't even think about finding a man who is devoted to his wife!

Through various observations, Chishi knew that she had countless women who were planning to "step on" her to rise to the top.

I already have so many so-called competitors.

Not to mention other men of higher or equal status than her husband.

From an objective perspective.

Men with power are prone to becoming unrestrained.

If you have no power and are being threatened, you should behave yourself.

Therefore, Senkushi simply decided to find a reliable one!

A man like Kyosuke Kousaka, who possesses power but doesn't act recklessly, would be perfect for two daughters!

It's good to have power but not to indulge in it.

Day 188 of crossing

On this day, Kyosuke Kosaka finally received the appointment he had longed for.

The newly appointed regent was in high spirits and appointed him to replace Kenryu on the same day.

Position – “Chief” of the Prosecutor’s Office, the highest-ranking official, not to be confused with.

Therefore, Kyosuke Kosaka decided to throw a party.

After quickly and simply arranging the day's events, he went back to share the good news with his partners.

After the banquet that day, and after taking a bath, Kyosuke Kosaka finally got his wish and started partying.

The group of couples were also very happy this time.

So, with Xiangzi, Sushang, and Qianhua egging them on, the revelry began.

Day 189 of crossing

Early in the morning, Kyosuke Kosaka fed May and Fumino some food before going out to find Komachi.

After every party, he always had to comfort Komachi.

"Kyosuke-sama, if I grow to be the same age as Fujishikibu-neechan, can I be with you?"

Komachi pouted and said something.

Kyosuke Kosaka patted her head: "Don't let Fumino and Yukino hear what you said, or they'll be very sad."

Komachi gave an embarrassed dry laugh and stuck out her tongue.

Her cherry-pink lips had a subtle sheen, making them look glossy and alluring.

As the small tongue twitches, the faintly visible white, neat teeth and lively canine teeth gleam.

"...Kyosuke-sama?"

With a look of delight in his expression and tone, Komachi Ryo quickly raised his head and closed his eyes again.

Kyosuke Kosaka sighed; he wanted to ask Komachi where she got the lip balm.

Taking Komachi's feelings into consideration.

Kyosuke Kosaka quickly made a print.

"...Ah, not the mouth."

Komachi quickly opened her eyes, touched the forehead area on her tender cheeks, and puffed out her cheeks at Kousaka Kyosuke.

Kousaka Kyosuke ignored it and asked casually.

"You're overthinking it. What's wrong with your mouth?"

"This is a change of topic..." Komachi muttered, then happily explained, "It's a lip balm that Shizuko-neechan made with cantaloupe!"

"Hmm... Would you like to try some, Kyosuke-sama?"

"I feel that eating cantaloupe would be better."

Kousaka Kyosuke pondered and thought.

He ate countless cantaloupes yesterday.

Fortunately, they were all very satisfied.

This puts him at ease.

“…Then I’ll serve everyone the dishes.” Komachi turned her head and prepared to leave.

Her slightly pursed lips moved gently, and the light on them became even more alluring.

Kyosuke Kosaka remained unmoved: "I'll help you."

As he spoke, he quickly patted Komachi's hair.

A moment later, a sweet laugh rang out: "You're so annoying~"

Chenshi.

Kyosuke Kosaka went to the government office.

When they went, they also brought Shogo, Maruo, and Hiroto with them.

The three are Yukinoshita, Nino, Miku, and Satsuki, and Komachi's father.

Others, like Chitanda's father, wanted to work in agriculture.

Like Kirisu Mafuyu's father, he only wanted to handle family affairs.

Kyosuke Kosaka also respected their choice.

For him, it's a great help no matter what he does.

We exchanged ideas.

Kyosuke Kosaka discovered that these fathers were truly sensible.

Perhaps it's related to the harsh environment in Heijō-kyō?

The problem is not worth investigating.

Kyosuke Kosaka first assigned them to inconspicuous clerical positions and they began working.

And just like that, a day passed in the blink of an eye.

Kyosuke Kosaka was pleasantly surprised to notice the amazing business acumen of the three elderly fathers in handling miscellaneous tasks.

"It's decided, I must make these fathers-in-law my helpers!"

Kyosuke Kousaka made up his mind.

Identity doesn't matter.

In the future, Kyoto will be full of achievements to accumulate!

Furthermore, one can always remove any subordinates one doesn't like from one's own office.

That night, while still considering whose room to spend the night in.
