Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

But Kyosuke Kousaka wouldn't be so desperate as to disregard a girl's first time.

Regardless, the first time is still very precious.

We need to be more formal.

"That ringtone is..."

"Me too!"

Before Kousaka Kyosuke could finish his question, Horikita Suzune immediately spoke up.

She turned around and looked at Kyosuke Kousaka with great confidence.

Kyosuke Kosaka tried hard to meet her purplish-red eyes, preventing his gaze from wandering off into places he shouldn't.

"Ok, I see."

The momentum was astonishing.

They underestimated Horikita Suzune.

It seems this young woman possesses an extraordinary magnanimity...

Day 445 of crossing

Kyosuke Kosaka stayed at home as usual today.

He needed to consult Sei Shonagon about some matters concerning court etiquette and ceremonies.

Ultimately, this wife had experienced several major events in the palace and knew at least many details, both big and small.

"Lord Kyosuke, you've learned very well, but you should be more careful about your gaze."

"Sorry, I was just a little curious about why you were wearing so much in this rather hot summer weather."

"I feel that Kyosuke-sama is not just curious, and curiosity is not something you should use like this."

Sei Shonagon rolled her eyes at Kousaka Kyosuke.

She dresses so formally so that she can teach various rules and regulations.

As a result, her husband started being mischievous again.

"Kyosuke-sama is probably thinking about my health again. Honestly, he's so inappropriate."

Sei Shonagon muttered something to herself, too lazy to say anything more to Kousaka Kyosuke.

It's just that her figure isn't very noticeable when she's dressed.

Is it really necessary to make such a fuss?

"Komachi, help me... Oh, Komachi went to take care of her mother."

Sei Shonagon was slightly disappointed.

These days, Komachi has been staying at the East House to take care of her pregnant mother who is about to give birth.

She forgot again.

"Lord Noko! What are your orders?"

Yui Yuigahama, who had noticed the situation, quickly walked over to inquire.

Sei Shonagon said, "It's nothing..."

"Pour her a cup of tea."

Kyosuke Kousaka smiled and gave instructions to the somewhat bewildered Yui Yuigahama.

Yui Yuigahama hurriedly asked, "Then, Kyosuke-sama, would you like some tea?"

"I don't need it, I want to drink with Nuozi."

"Yes, Lord Kyosuke!"

After answering, Yui Yuigahama turned and left in a hurry.

Noko glared angrily at Kousaka Kyosuke and said in a low voice:

"I'll drink my own! And what I need is... paper and pen."

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "Have you forgotten your omnipotent husband?"

"Bring me the bear form!"

Sei Shonagon, as always, spoke politely in honorific language.

After a moment of contemplation, Kousaka Kyosuke raised his hand, clasped his hands together, and finally looked solemnly at Sei Shonagon.

"Oh~"

"..."

Sei Shonagon pursed her lips, both amused and annoyed, and closed her eyes, unable to bear looking at her.

Phew!

A laugh that seemed impossible to contain rang out.

"Xiangzi, you were just eavesdropping, how did you end up giving yourself away?"

Hearing the laughter, Sei Shonagon turned his head to look at Kyoko, who was about ten steps away.

Xiangzi smiled and said, "Lord Kyosuke isn't trying to make people laugh, but if you don't laugh, I will."

Sei Shonagon looked helplessly at Kousaka Kyosuke.

"Why are you laughing? I'm not Bao Si."

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "Yes, you make a good point. Let's go pick some flowers and relax."

boom.

A pen fell down.

Fujishikibu, who was next to Xiangzi, silently picked up his pen and continued writing something.

"..." Sei Shonagon carefully observed this scene, scrutinizing Kousaka Kyosuke. "What do you mean by 'picking flowers'?"

Xiangzi let out a suppressed laugh, and finally turned her head away.

I noticed, almost inadvertently, that the papers on the low table in front of Fujishige had several messy creases and hooks...

"Aren't the flowers outside blooming beautifully? Pick a few and put them on your head, they'll look lovely."

Kyosuke Kosaka chuckled dryly.

Dirty jokes have to back down when they meet a serious opponent.

Otherwise, we're doomed.

"Hmm, Kyosuke-sama."

"Well... Once during a meal, Xiao Li was a little restless, and Komachi quietly asked her what was wrong. In the end, somehow the two of them decided to go pick flowers together."

"Lord Kyosuke, you mustn't joke about Komachi and Kojiri."

Sei Shonagon patted Kousaka Kyosuke's shoulder lightly.

"Okay, it was my fault."

Kyosuke Kosaka wisely admitted his mistake.

Indeed, it is wrong to make fun of children.

Children also have their own dignity.

By doing this, I am essentially no different from those feudal remnants who like to tease children.

He needs to reflect on his actions.

"...You don't need to worry about it too much, just don't make the same mistake again, right?"

Sei Shonagon's voice softened as she gently continued to offer her advice.

She keenly sensed that Kyosuke Kousaka was indeed reflecting on his actions, and her heart immediately softened.

"Kyosuke-sama truly lives up to his reputation as a fine man. He corrects his mistakes, and such noble qualities are truly rare and precious."

Having met countless men and women of outstanding status, position, and ability, Sei Shonagon knows all too well what kind of personalities these people possess.

The vast majority of them were quite arrogant.

Especially when you know you're wrong and the thing you're doing is wrong, you still insist on sticking to your own opinion.

Sei Shonagon did not offer any further advice.

Because it won't work.

If Kyosuke Kosaka weren't her husband, she wouldn't have said much about these things.

“I’ve gotten a little carried away,” Kousaka Kyosuke said solemnly, “so I need to calm down for a while.”

Sei Shonagon said with concern, "It shouldn't be that bad."

Kyosuke Kosaka waved his hand: "Yes, it is necessary. Small things reveal big things, and I do have things I need to correct. I'll go meditate for half an hour first, and then you can come and comfort me."
