Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

Page 498

"And yet you still come..."

Kyosuke Kousaka muttered to himself.

He should be grateful for the high level of integrity.

In winter, the weather is cold, molecules move slowly, and odors don't diffuse as easily.

Otherwise, he would really have to go to another country with a system of decrees to become a chief minister in no time.

Chenshi.

After a brief patrol, Kyosuke Kosaka, who was then working at the government office, received a series of new messages.

There are monsters that have gone berserk, and there are also places that have collapsed.

Even more homeless people, and even some ordinary citizens, froze to death on the roadside...

Being in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, a government office mainly responsible for managing public security and civil affairs, it's hard to find a moment of leisure.

"Lord Kyosuke, please."

A cup of hot tea was placed in front of Kyosuke Kousaka.

Kousaka Kyosuke asked Fujiwara Tomoyuki, who was serving him tea.

"Have you communicated the situation with the officials in charge of the granary?"

"Yes, they said they would mobilize a batch of grain in case of an emergency."

"Then organize some more people to go to the various noble residences to inquire if there is any useless moldy old grain."

"Yes, Kyosuke-sama."

Fujiwara Tomoyuki respectfully accepted the official seal handed over by Kosaka Kyosuke, his heart filled with complex emotions.

He hadn't expected that Kyosuke Kosaka would immediately consider the problems of the disaster victims.

Logically speaking.

Nobles have no need to care about commoners or the lowest classes.

Kyosuke Kosaka's reasoning was that "too many deaths in a short period of time would accumulate too much yin energy and filth."

Asking others for food is another reason.

Similarly, there was no requirement that Fujiwara Tomoyuki himself must obtain it.

But Fujiwara Tomoyuki was quite clear about it.

Officials who established welfare facilities such as the charity granary and the charity granary could not possibly not provide support.

Otherwise, if something goes wrong later, they are very likely to be held accountable.

The odds aren't high, but probably no one would be willing to gamble on it.

However, this also offends some people.

After all, anyone with a sound mind knows very well how much use welfare facilities could still be in this feudal era.

The fact that even starving people wouldn't go to them for food speaks volumes.

Another hour passed.

Kyosuke Kousaka was preparing to go to a suburban shrine to await Ai Hayasaka's arrival.

Unexpectedly, he ran into Minamoto no Yorihei as soon as he stepped out.

"Lord Lai Ping?"

Kyosuke Kosaka looked puzzled. Why didn't he send an invitation?

Minamoto no Yorihira's expression was slightly solemn:

"Lord Kyosuke, there is a place on the four main roads where the flow of Yin and Yang energies is strange."

Kyosuke Kosaka nodded quickly: "Let's go take a look."

After saying that, the two moved along and soon arrived at their destination.

Upon taking a look, Kyosuke Kosaka immediately realized that this was exactly the situation he had been worried about.

"This is due to the influence of demonic power, spiritual power, and the flow of yin energy..."

He explained as he spoke.

Kyosuke Kosaka carefully noticed that Raihei Minamoto might not be very good at "spiritual vision".

The so-called "spiritual vision"

That is, to see things that ordinary people cannot see.

Depending on their talents, some people can see more or less.

Just like Kousaka Kyosuke himself.

At this moment, he was able to carefully capture the detailed flow of Yin and Yang energies.

This includes specific situations where the Yin and Yang energies are affected by demonic power, spiritual power, and other chaotic and unlucky influences.

"I'll handle this; it just happens to be something I'm good at."

Kyosuke Kosaka didn't give Yorihei a chance to speak before he attacked.

Minamoto no Yorihira was grateful.

He thought to himself, "Perhaps Lord Kyosuke really does have a way..."

The Yin and Yang energies are regulated smoothly.

Kousaka Kyosuke then looked at Minamoto no Yorihei standing to the side.

"Lord Lai Ping is truly meticulous."

"You flatter me, Lord Kyosuke. I'm just doing my job diligently, just like you."

"If you're in a position, you must fulfill your duties." Kyosuke Kousaka smiled.

I felt a little embarrassed when I said it.

He just wanted to slack off.

Especially considering that he had four fathers-in-law, two brothers-in-law, and a group of Qin family members as helpers in the dormitory.

He really wanted to do absolutely nothing!

But Minamoto no Yorihira acted as if he admired him?

How to do this?

When there are no problems with the future official residence, he wants to spend all his time partying in his mansion's bedroom.

After all, going back and forth every day is quite annoying.

"Kyosuke-sama..."

"Oh, is there something you want to say? Please speak freely."

Seeing that Minamoto no Yorihira looked hesitant, much like he did before he was preparing for his wedding, Kousaka Kyosuke smiled and took the initiative to ask.

He didn't really want to be some kind of inexplicable confidant.

However, sharing such private matters is a sign of a good relationship, so let's listen.

"To be honest, this is related to one of my cousins."

Seeing that Kousaka Kyosuke's expression was friendly, Minamoto no Yorihei finally made up his mind and spoke up.

He grew up watching his cousin Kagura.

Kagura is currently unconscious, a truly pitiful state.

The sacrifices were far too great.

Since her brother transferred the spiritual power within her to another priestess.

This shows that he wants her to live the rest of her life for him.

Therefore, his cousin absolutely had an obligation to help.

"...The priestess who sacrificed the great serpent."

After listening for a while, Kyosuke Kousaka's expression turned slightly solemn, and he was utterly speechless.

It seems that his appearance has truly changed far too much of the plot.

Following the established path.

Both Abe no Seimei and Kagura will be deliberately left on Mount Kuroya.

now?

Minamoto no Yorimitsu brought Kagura directly back to the main family.

So the female lead from the original story is gone?
