Onmyoji, a nobleman in Heian-kyo

“Yes, it’s better that they’re different,” Fujiwara Yukinari remarked, then asked, “Do you have any more?”

Kyosuke Kosaka shook his head: "No more. If you want it, the core components from the Kamo family have to be made. In short, it has to be custom-made."

"You're quite the businessman. Even if you were to sell these later, they'd fetch ten thousand coins each. I'll give you double that!"

"Row."

Kyosuke Kousaka has no problem with that.

Twenty thousand coins is roughly equivalent to fourteen or fifteen bushels of rice. No, due to the riots, the price of rice has risen considerably…

Oh well, as long as I made a profit, that's all that matters.

"If you have any of those colored printed paper, remember to sell them to me," Fujiwara Yukinari said as he was about to leave.

Kyosuke Kosaka pondered, "Then you'll have to buy the kind that Master Daoist has."

Eh?

Fujiwara Yukinari was taken aback at first, but then he quickly realized what was happening.

"Haha, you're obsessed with money!"

"No, it's a problem with the Yin-Yang technique," Kousaka Kyosuke explained earnestly.

Fujiwara Yukinari waved his hand, too lazy to look at Kousaka Kyosuke's serious face, which was full of nonsense.

Buy one more, that's fine.

It's nothing to him anyway, he can just show it off.

Both black-and-white and color images are very good.

However, we must be careful when using it. I heard that His Majesty took a picture of a concubine, and it was quite ugly. The concubine hurriedly and quickly put the photo away...

"They walk really fast."

Kyosuke Kosaka muttered to himself, but he finally felt relieved.

There is no doubt about it.

The camera was very popular in the palace, and nothing too unexpected happened, which was good.

Make a quick buck while the trend lasts, because it won't be as fashionable anymore.

"Stockpile grain and iron, strengthen ourselves..."

Kousaka Kyosuke kept talking.

After some tinkering, I managed to create a camera that's not easy to analyze and figure out, and I finally made some money.

The Taoist priest will probably give a reward as usual, so the funds in the warehouse will slowly return, and Su Yi won't be so worried anymore, right?

Should we take advantage of this time to make money and splurge a little more?

In modern times, wouldn't everyone want a special set meal?

No, wouldn't it be better to go back to the palace?

Suddenly.

Sensing something, Kyosuke Kousaka gently raised his hand, and in no time, a small paper crane flew into his hand.

Kyosuke Kosaka unfolds the paper crane.

【Can】

Kousaka Kyosuke breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that Fujiwara Michitsuna was quite capable, and also thought that the Taoist priest's side was quite understanding of people's hearts.

"Although I don't know what Emperor Ichijo is thinking, Teishi has been with her for so many years, and stories of their loving relationship have been circulating in the palace from time to time, so naturally they wouldn't ignore her feelings..."

So when I find something fun, I won't forget her.

This could cause the situation to take a turn for the worse.

And Teiko's brother, Ichiju, will certainly react as well.

For example, I could get a camera for my younger sister too...

All I can say is that money isn't so easy to earn.

Making money inevitably means offending people.

Fortunately, this person was originally an enemy.

This time, the deliberate provocation has a strong sense of déjà vu, like someone is looking for trouble.

They've probably all been put on someone's "kill list," right?

"Lord Kyosuke." Yang called out from outside the main hall.

Kyosuke Kosaka said, "If guests come, let Irei entertain them. I'm not feeling well today..."

"It's Miss Sei Shonagon from the Imperial Palace..."

"I'll take care of this."

Kyosuke Kosaka tried his best to suppress his embarrassment and calmly changed his approach.

Yang Nai bowed her head, suppressing a laugh: This man...

194. Appeasing Sei Shonagon / Yukinari's Repayment / Sakayanagi and Kiryuin / Martial Arts Instruction

The ferry hall at the East Central Gate.

Kyosuke Kousaka, who was walking very fast, quickly arrived at the location.

Naturally, Sei Shonagon was seen from afar.

Unlike many other times, she was not wearing a bright red kimono.

Instead, she dressed in the proper attire for aristocratic women when going out.

The city girl, whose figure was covered by a long white veil, was placed next to a low table. She knelt quietly, looking less lively and cheerful than usual.

Da da da……

Hearing hurried footsteps, Sei Shonagon turned around unconsciously, his expression unreadable.

Her cherry lips on her fair, slightly childlike face moved slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but seemed unable to utter a word.

Kyosuke Kosaka quickened his pace, raising his right hand as he hurried toward her.

"Puch!"

Seeing that Kousaka Kyosuke was somewhat confused and was pointing at him with his palm as he rushed over, Sei Shonagon couldn't help but laugh.

"No need to say anything, I understand, I understand everything." Kousaka Kyosuke, who had just arrived, spoke first.

Sei Shonagon's heart skipped a beat, and her smile faded slightly.

"Lord Kyosuke, what do you know?"

"I just want to say that those who know, know; and those who don't, I won't explain further. After all, it's enough for you and me to know. There are too many interests involved, and it wouldn't benefit either of us to say anything. Just pretend you don't know."

Kyosuke Kosaka had a serious expression and spoke quickly.

Although I said I didn't want to use memes, the problem is that it's not good not to use them. Anyway, I'll just do it once.

It seems like we've already played it?

Forget it, I'll ignore it.

At the very least, we can't let Sei Shonagon be embarrassed too much.

She's a good girl after all, there's no need to make things difficult for her.

Political matters are indeed very intertwined with interests, so let's not talk about this topic too much.

"The Daoist Master said there was no problem, which means that he at least tacitly agrees with the Daoist Master's stance. So this time, I'm just doing him a favor."

Kyosuke Kosaka thought to himself, while feeling deeply apologetic.

We need to ask Sei Shonagon to come over; I bet she was really torn before she even arrived.

"Ugh, stop saying things that are incomprehensible to others. You've said that twice already."

Sei Shonagon's restrained smile returned.

Kyosuke Kosaka smiled and said, "It's been a lot of trouble for you to come all this way. Let's chat, and I'll give you a little surprise when you leave."

The two sat down and chatted as they sat down.

"...What would you like to talk about? Would you like to discuss whether the women of the Imperial Palace become frivolous?"

"It's not frivolous at all. I think you just want to see some interesting people and things."

"...Please don't make assumptions."

Sei Shonagon's cheeks burned, and she became dizzy.

She never intended for anyone else to see some of the things she wrote, but they gradually went astray...

Now I can't write much anymore, and my views have gradually changed.
