Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

There's nothing to do if we stay any longer, so of course we should go back and keep the other couples who have come to visit the manor company.

"We apologize for not being able to provide you with such hospitality. Please allow us to make preparations for your enjoyment next time."

"No need for such formalities. We'll come to admire the cherry blossoms in a few days. If you'd like to join us and make the atmosphere even more lively, that would be great."

"must."

Sakura Fairy bowed very politely.

The peach blossom fairy, who was still standing aside, quickly followed suit.

No wonder the cherry blossom fairy called him "child"; he seemed to lack experience.

all in all.

That concludes the story of the peach blossom fairy and the cherry blossom fairy.

Next, spend some time with your partner.

Oh, and there's this big fox too.

It looks a lot like the spirit fox of Inari god.

Never mind, let's keep it for now.

Day 389 of crossing

Today, Kyosuke Kousaka is going to visit Daichi Fujiwara's family.

However, he did not bring the three sisters, Toyo, Chika, and Moeha, with him.

If we really bring them over, then we'll have to follow the rules and take Xiangzi, Fumino, Fujishikibu, and the others back to their respective homes.

Not only is this troublesome, but it's also very contrary to customs.

Because in this peaceful era, even parents would not see their daughters frequently.

Kyosuke Kousaka naturally wouldn't break this rule.

As for why I took the initiative to go to Fujiwara Daichi's house this time?

It wasn't related to the position held by another father-in-law, Fujiwara no Tametoki.

Visiting a little more frequently is also to reassure the family so they won't worry too much.

"I've married all three of your daughters, so I'm definitely in the same boat as you. The problem is, your branch isn't very supportive, and I can't help you even if I wanted to."

On the way there, Kyosuke Kosaka couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Honestly.

He wouldn't mind having the faction controlled by his father-in-law Fujiwara Daichi's younger brother Fujiwara Masataka come and help him.

Unfortunately, while that branch wasn't bad in terms of quality, it was far inferior to the Qin and He Mao clans!

Due to previous resource scarcity, the Qin family generally opted for a policy of late childbirth and eugenics.

He is not only good at fighting, but also skilled in various strategies.

Kyosuke Kosaka even gave back the military strategies he used to memorize out of boredom, such as "The Art of War," "Six Secret Teachings," and "Wu Zi."

I don't expect everyone to become a military general, I just hope that everyone knows how to use their brains and not act recklessly!

Returning to the main point, Kyosuke Kosaka hoped that these Qin clan members, who were already of high quality, could become his greatest asset and make more solid preparations for the future great war.

Then let's talk about Kamo.

Kamo clan was also a legend!

The current head of the clan, Kamo no Yasunori, is not stupid; in fact, he is intelligent and rational. Unfortunately, he frequently chooses the wrong side in politics, and the clan has become even more decadent due to the Kidomaru incident.

However, the quality of the clan members was actually similar to that of the Qin clan.

Furthermore, due to their gradual decline, Kamo no Yasunori adopted a similar policy to that of the Qin clan, at least ensuring that ordinary clan members were not useless.

Basically, most people know a few Yin-Yang techniques.

This is definitely good news for Kyosuke Kousaka!

Because most people in the world don't have any spiritual aptitude, even if they have knowledge of magic, it's useless for them to learn magic.

Therefore, practitioners of Yin-Yang arts, or Yin-Yang masters, still have a considerable market.

Of course, the clansmen that Kousaka Kyosuke received from the Kamo family were not particularly outstanding, but they were not particularly bad either; they were of average ability.

Even so, they are still very talented people.

Finally... it was the turn of the clan led by Fujiwara Masataka.

Kyosuke Kosaka had no idea how many people from the modern era were inside, and even if they were, he didn't care much.

Because he really didn't expect it.

Just like the military treatise that Kousaka Kyosuke gave to the Qin family.

These were also wholesaled to members of the Fujiwara and Kamo clans who joined the estate.

After some time, upon further investigation, it was found that these two groups were still somewhat inferior to the Qin family.

Well, the Fujiwara clan is at the bottom.

For this reason, Kyosuke Kosaka has essentially given up on the personnel led by Masataka Fujiwara.

It's not that I'm completely ignoring it, but rather that I don't intend to interfere further or have any intention of nurturing anyone.

Eventually, things will become increasingly chaotic over time.

Wouldn't it be better for Kyosuke Kousaka to invest more resources in his subordinates who could have developed better?

Why invest in someone who is already incapable?

This is certainly starting to seem unfair.

But for the sake of important matters, there's no time to worry about too much.

The best course of action is to appease them.

I just hope these people can think more positively.

I was inexplicably reminded of Fujiwara Masakazu's voluntary "demotion" from his secure job at the palace.

Kyosuke Kosaka's eyelids twitched as he watched.

Why would someone choose to work in the Palace, where there is such a safe and generous working environment with all sorts of subsidies, instead of going to the incredibly busy Outer Guard Bureau?

Kyosuke Kosaka was speechless about this.

Even so, he was too lazy to say anything.

Anyway, Minamoto no Yorihira will definitely take good care of Fujiwara no Masakazu, that's fine.

Kousaka Kyosuke didn't want to get involved in the rest.

There's no point in being too involved.

the other side.

Fengshi is also helpless.

Seeing that Kyosuke Kousaka, who seemed to have some free time today, had come to her house, she immediately understood that Kyosuke Kousaka had come to comfort her.

"Sister, Uncle Changhe is putting Lord Kyosuke in a difficult position."

"That's what Moeha said, as she shared a room with Toyomi."

She was pouting, and you could see some dissatisfaction on her little face.

Feng Shi glared at her: "Don't talk about your elders behind their backs."

"Why not? I feel that Uncle Changlong and Uncle Changhe have ultimately failed to adapt to this era."

Mengye finally couldn't help but speak her mind.

Although she is young, she is not ignorant.

They know even more than anyone else.

I know that Kyosuke Kosaka is working hard to maintain everyone's relationship, and I also know that everyone is trying to maintain this harmonious atmosphere in their daily lives.

However, it seems that the two uncles are still causing some trouble.

Is there anything wrong with living a peaceful and stable life like my father?

"...With time, everyone will gradually understand." Feng Shi met Meng Ye's unconvinced gaze and sighed slowly.

She actually understood her two uncles.

In the modern world, they were the object of everyone's adulation and flattery, but they were brought to this world for no reason and their status was lowered.

It's perfectly normal to feel uncomfortable under normal circumstances.

"I feel like if Kyosuke-sama goes back to our house... I won't be able to face everyone. After all, Kyosuke-sama belongs to everyone, and it's not good to be too unfair."

Mengye stopped talking about her two uncles and instead muttered other things to herself.

After arriving in this world, Moeha always longed to go back. It wasn't until she came from Heijō-kyō to Kyoto, the Heian-kyō, that she began to feel attached to this world.

Especially after meeting her husband, Kyosuke Kousaka, Moeha completely lost any desire to go back.
