I just want to build a city

The letter, and the newly brewed cherry wine, were escorted by three attendants on a fast horse all the way back to Ping'an capital.

Of course, it is impossible for this newly brewed wine to be delivered to Abe Seimei alone.The other two attendants each took Haruki-kun's condolence letter, as well as green plum wine, cherry wine, and chrysanthemum wine, and sent them to the residence of the Fujiwara family and Minamoto Yoshinobu.

What the letter said was nothing more than the letter delivered last time, what happened so far, and what he did again, and it focused on the matter of playing with Miko Yoko.Qingshu-kun has the guts to do it, but doing this kind of thing involves clan relations, so he always has to speak to these two elders.

Let's not talk about Minamoto Yoshinobu and Fujiwara Michitaka's reaction when they received the letter and the wine.

Here, the attendant Jiulang brought three copies of new wine and letters, and under inquiry, he found the mansion that Abe Seimei placed.This is a mansion with a taste of imitating Tang Dynasty architecture. Not to mention it is not as big as the Fujiwara Mansion, even the Genji Manor in Tottori is not comparable in size. This is still a suburban place.

As one of the attendants that Haruki-kun brought with him from the Fujiwara family, Hisuro certainly didn't show a look of contempt because of this.On the contrary, it was because I met Abe-sama a few times in Tottori, but I felt that this person was even more opaque than my master.For example, now, since no one is guarding the gate of the house, the gate is open.He didn't know whether it was because he knew he was coming, or for some other reason.

Jiulang didn't have any doubts for a long time. When he probed into the courtyard door and saw that there was really no one there, he raised his hand and knocked on the courtyard door lightly, then he heard the voice of a gentle woman coming from beside him.

"Excuse me, are you a guest from Tottori Genji Manor?"

Jiulang was startled at first, and turned his head to look at the other side of the line of sight.In front of him, in the direction he was not looking at just now, a very beautiful woman suddenly appeared.The woman was wearing gorgeous layered lavender clothes, and looked at Jiuro with a very gentle smile.This woman is even more beautiful than most of the noble women Jiu Lang has seen. Of course, the beauty is not only the appearance, but also the warm and class-free gaze in the eyes.

"Yes, yes, I am from Genji Manor in Tottori. I was entrusted by my lord to send newly brewed chrysanthemum wine and cherry wine, as well as the green plum wine that Abe-sama liked very much. In addition, Abe-sama would like This matter." Jiulang has never been looked at tenderly by such a beautiful woman, his face flushed red, and he stuttered for a while.

When they came to ask for something, most people would have a slightly weird look on their faces when they heard it. The woman in purple clothes did not change at all, she just stepped forward to lead him the way. "Since you are a guest from Tottori Genji, please come with me, Seimei-sama has been waiting for a while."

Ah, sure enough it was calculated that he would come.Thinking of this, Jiulang has a lot of admiration for Mr. Abe.

However, looking at the beautiful woman who suddenly appeared in front of him, he was very curious. "Excuse me……"

"Yes, please tell me."

Being called you by a more beautiful woman with beautiful clothes, Jiuro almost lost his mind. "I obviously didn't see anyone waiting at the door just now. Where are you standing? It really surprised me."

The woman in purple clothes raised her hand to cover her mouth, chuckled, stopped, and pointed to the green vine at the gate of the courtyard. "I was there before."

"Hey?" Jiulang looked in the direction she pointed for a long time. There was only a wisteria tree climbing the courtyard wall, and there was no place to hide.Could it be that his eyes were blurred after traveling for several days?However, Mr. Abe's land is not only good in water and soil, but also because the wisteria tree is growing beautifully, and the wisteria tree that should have withered this season is still flourishing through the magic trick.If there were so many wisteria flowers on the wisteria tree, Jiulang would think that the woman beside him was the flower spirit.

"Please continue to follow me."

Hearing this, Jiulang came back to his senses, yes, he still has something to do that the lord entrusted him with.

Just as Jiulang thought, this mansion is really not big, he only followed the woman in purple clothes through a few corridors, and walked into the backyard.Because it was already winter, there was no luxuriant bushes in the courtyard to block his sight, Jiulang could easily see the familiar man sitting on the porch of the courtyard, and a man in official uniform that he didn't know.

Jiulang didn't look too much, since Master Abe knew that he was coming, and let this strange man wait for him, it must be nothing serious.

"Master Qingming, the guests are here."

"Well, step back." Abe Seimei said casually.

Jiulang lowered his head, startled for a moment, is this woman in purple clothes just a servant? !

"Master Abe." Jiulang knelt down and saluted him.He pushed the three jars of wine that he had brought with him to the front of him, and then took out a letter.

"Well, Kyurou-kun, goodbye to Tottori, long time no see." Abe treated everyone with a relaxed tone just like when he was in Tottori.

"Qingming, this is what you said, the person who will bring the drinks? Who is he?" Sitting next to Qingming, the masculine strange man who was taller and more handsome than Qingming asked, his words were not like Usually the nobles of the clan have the feeling of being superior.Jiulang glanced at it, and the thing placed next to the strange man was a beautiful looking long knife.It turned out to be a samurai-sama.

Abe was not polite, and before and after Jiulang pushed the three jars of wine, he picked up one jar with his hands, unsealed it, and smelled the aroma of the wine.Hearing the man's question, he smiled apologetically. "I forgot to introduce, Hisakuro, this is a cousin of the same family as your master, Mr. Minamoto Hiroya. Hiroya, you should have heard that the eldest son of General Yoshinobu Minamoto and the third daughter of Michitaka Fujiwara moved to Tottori. This is your cousin's subordinate named Hisuro."

"Ah~ I know, I know." Yuan Boya laughed after hearing that. "It turns out to be Qingshu-kun's people, so there is no need to be too polite, let's sit here together."

After all, Yuan Boya smelled the aroma of wine from Qingming, and couldn't help but open a jar of wine. The bright red wine, sweet and sour fruity aroma made him want to have a drink first. "I've heard people in the clan say that Mr. Qingshu made chrysanthemum wine, which is very popular with the emperor. This shouldn't be the chrysanthemum bar, but it's still very good, and it's also a fine wine. It would be better if it was kept longer gone."

"This is the cherry wine that started to be brewed at the end of summer. The chrysanthemum wine is in this jar in the hands of Mr. Abe, and the other jar is green plum wine. There are also wines that have been stored for a long time. The owner asked the winemaker to save a small half. However, you can only drink it locally, if Mr. Boya wants to drink it, the master will definitely welcome you." What Jiulang said was very beautiful.

As for why the wine with better storage is not sold, one is to attract able-bodied people to come to Genji’s manor, and the other is that the winemaker Chu Qi said that this wine is very sensitive to the temperature environment. It's bad, even if it is sold, it is not much different from the wine sold before.

"Then I'll go with Seimei next time." Boya and Seimei have been together for a long time, of course they know that Seimei will definitely find an opportunity to go to Tottori for a drink. "Then I'll start first..."

Yuan Boya hadn't finished speaking, and Abe Seimei held down the pouring movement.

"Hey, Qingming, there's still a lot, you won't let me come over, but don't give me a sip."

Abe smiled lightly and pressed his hand, putting down the wine and cup. "Let me finish my business first."

After all, without Jiulang explaining why he came here, he took the letter and unfolded it. It only contained the time of birth of the two of them. Write down the date and hour.

"Wait, Qingming, what are you doing? Are you just dealing with it casually? For the sake of these good wines, at least count it a few more times to make sure." Although Yuan Boya had never met Qing Mr. Shu, but he also heard about him several times from his uncle, General Lai Xin.Since it was his own family, he wanted Qingming not to deal with the clan so casually.

"Didn't I want you to drink this delicious wine earlier?" Mr. Qingming didn't stop writing because of his words, and Jiulang didn't show any dissatisfaction. Judging from the words of the woman in purple who entered the door, he Guess, Mr. Abe must have figured out their coming and their intentions early on. It's not that Mr. Abe has never met Kaito-kun and Xing, so he must have calculated the time long ago.Besides, the lord has also said that the ability of Abe-sama is much more useful than other onmyojis of the astronomical way, even if he calculates it casually.

When Abe Seimei finished writing these days and hours, the wind that Kuro couldn't see rolled around his fingertips, and the ink words dried up in a blink of an eye.He folded the paper in half, sealed it and handed it to Jiuro. "By the way, since only two people's days are counted, with this extra jug of wine, bring me a message to Mr. Qingshu."

"Yes."

"Let him wait quietly. What he wants to find will appear in front of him next year. Let him not bother too much."

Jiulang wrote down these words and thought for a while.Is the owner of the house struggling because of something?No, I ate and slept all day, and I ate and slept... Oh, no, the master is still working very hard for the development of the territory, um.

"Since the task is completed, go back earlier and find your companions. They, like you, have important things to tell Qingshu-kun."

"Yes."

Jiulang retreated to the outside of the courtyard, and saw the woman in purple standing there quietly on the path, as if waiting for him to see him out.

"Please come with me."

"Ah, yes." Jiulang touched his hot face, and slapped himself in his heart for disappointment.Really, just met a beautiful woman, and became so flustered.

The woman in purple clothes quietly led him to the gate and bowed to him. "You go slowly."

"it is good."

Jiulang stepped out of the gate of Abe's house, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he wanted to look back at the beautiful woman again.Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the woman who was bowing to see him off at the door just now disappeared. He looked towards the wisteria tree in a strange way, and the woman said that it was her hiding place.When I entered the door, I saw a wisteria tree with only thick vines and green leaves. There was not only one more wisteria flower on the tree at this time, it bloomed very beautifully.

Did the wisteria tree originally have such a bunch of beautiful wisteria flowers?

When Jiulang was puzzled, the gate of Abe's mansion was quietly closed under his gaze.

Thinking about what was going on, Jiulang shook his body violently, and left the place quickly.

When he arrived at Suzaku Gate where he met, Jiulang saw two companions waiting there earlier, but unlike his slightly happy face, the expressions on the faces of these two people were not very good-looking.

"What's the matter? Did General Laishin and Patriarch Fujiwara read the letter from the lord and punish you?" Apart from this, Jiulang really couldn't think of anything else that made these two people look so bad.

"There are too many eyes, I will tell you on the way back." The servant who went to Fujiwara's mansion said so.

Hearing what he said, Jiulang also knew that things might not be simple. The three of them didn't carry something as heavy as wine as they did when they came, so they got on their horses and prepared to leave the Ping'an capital area as soon as possible.

The three of them left Tottori at the end of autumn, and it has already been half a month of winter. Haruki-kun was going to Heian-kyo to celebrate the New Year under the escort of the Genji samurai army. Man stopped the plan.

The three of them took away three letters each, and brought back three letters.In the reception room, he saw letters from three people, namely from the Fujiwara family, the Minamoto family, and the Abe family, and saw that the faces of a few people were not right, so he opened the letter written by Fujiwara Michitaka first according to the order in which they were placed. .

Haruki-kun read the whole letter written by Fujiwara Michitaka, and his face, which usually has no major emotions, was a little sad.Immediately afterwards, he opened the letter written by his father Lai Xin, and the worry on his face increased a lot.

Xing was beside Qingshu-kun, and because of her height, she was able to see some contents of the letter over the top of Qingshu-kun's head, and she was stunned by the first sentence of Fujiwara's letter.The first sentence in the letter was: My grandson, I was sick in bed before the winter, this year's festival, don't come back.

Patriarch Fujiwara, unexpectedly fell ill.

Leaving aside what Xing was thinking, Qingshu-kun frowned, thinking about the history he had seen in his previous life.It's a pity that his study of history is only for academics. Fujiwara Michitaka's records in history books are far less than Fujiwara Michitaka's.Now that I think about it, yes.In the end, there was only one head of the Fujiwara family, and that was the grandfather's third brother Fujiwara Michijo.The age difference between Michitaka Fujiwara and his grandfather is not too big. Mr. Michiwara Fujiwara later took control of the Fujiwara family, and Heiankyo has been in power for so many years, so he must have replaced Michitaka Fujiwara.Fujiwara Michitaka's personal ability is not bad. It can be said that he is one of the people who supported the prosperity of the Fujiwara family. How is it possible that Fujiwara Michitaka will succeed the head of the family in the future.There is only one possibility, the brothers of the above two direct relatives are both dead.

As for Michitaka Fujiwara, in history, whether he died of illness or was assassinated, Haruki-kun doesn't know, but the grandfather is down, not to mention the secret political enemies of the Fujiwara family, there will be chaos inside.After all, the two younger brothers under Daolong should both want to replace Daolong and sit in the position of under one person and over ten thousand people. Moreover, if they can operate, they can also indirectly control the emperor's thoughts and actions.

The letter sent to him by Yuan Laixin has almost the same meaning.Tell Haruki-kun not to go back to Heian-kyo for the New Year's Eve this year, and Michitaka Fujiwara suddenly fell ill. I'm afraid, someone secretly will not stop making small moves.Haruki-kun came to Heian-kyo from Tottori, passing through a big river and mountain, it was too easy for those people to do something and find any excuses.Fortunately, Minamoto Yoshinobu and Fujiwara Michitaka's letters both mentioned at the end that Fujiwara Michitaka's health is gradually improving, so let him not worry about it.

It's impossible not to worry about it. No matter how you say it, Mr. Fujiwara also sheltered him and indulged him. Unlike Mr. Fujiwara, he is a father who loves his daughter and his mother, and treats him well.The exchange of letters during this period of time made it possible for them to have a close relationship.

However, he remembered that Mr. Fujiwara sent his daughters to the Emperor's Palace one by one to consolidate his power. The most controversial thing was sending his daughters who had just grown up to the palace.Now Chang Fujiwara, his eldest daughter, is still under the age of adulthood, which proves that it is not so early before Fujiwara Michitaka's death.Then, in the letter, the fact that Fujiwara Michitaka's body is gradually improving should not be used to comfort him.

Michitaka Fujiwara, Minamoto Yoshinobu did not let him go back to Heian-kyo, it was also for his safety, after all, he is fledgling now.Since Michitaka Fujiwara's body is fine now, it would be good for him not to go back to Heiankyo for the New Year's Eve, and it would save him a trip that tortured his body.

That being said, he hadn't thought about it that way, making Fujiwara Michitaka sick all the time, and he would never have to return to Heiankyo.

"This year's New Year's Day, I won't go back to Heian-kyo, General Todo, your family members are all in Heian-kyo, or Kanto, while it's still early, go back and celebrate the New Year with your family." Haruki-kun calmed down and wrote the letter Folded one by one, and handed it to Xing beside him. As for the envelope with the auspicious date written on it, I didn't open it at this time, so as not to get bad luck.

Fujido is not as close as Xingzhan, so I don't know what was written in Heian-kyo's letter, but judging from Haruki-kun's expression just now, and the expression on the three servants when he came back, he already knows that it is not good news.Although he acknowledged Mr. Qingshu's kindness in words, but what kind of arrangement he made after he returned, that's another story.

Afterwards, Mr. Qingshu asked the three of them to go back to rest first.

Before leaving, Hisuro stepped forward and whispered to Kaito-kun, and handed the words that Abe Seimei asked him to pass on to Kaito-kun. After hearing this, Kaito-kun closed his eyes slightly, and knew what Abe Seimei was talking about.After nearly a month of searching, indeed, they have gained nothing. This is the first time that Kai Teng-kun did not complete the task ordered by Haruki-kun. It can be said that he is very concerned.Hearing about the shaman girl now is considered good news in today's view, and I want Haruki-kun to alleviate some of the melancholy in his heart.

After Kaito-kun, Xing followed Qingshu-kun back to his study, Koichiro told him about it.

"This time, Jiulang and the others brought back not all bad news."

"Huh? Is there anything else?" Qingshu-kun opened the last letter and glanced at it when Xing went to make tea and was not by his side.

"Abe-sama Tokuro brought back a sentence, saying yes, the person the lord is looking for, don't need to spend too much time thinking, and it will naturally appear in front of you next year."

When Qingshu saw Xing came back, he closed the letter in his hand and said with a light smile. "That's right, that's indeed good news, but it's not the only good news brought back. Kaito-kun, Xing, come forward."

Kaito-kun and Xing glanced at each other, not knowing why, they both stopped what they were doing, and walked to Qingshu-kun's desk, the two sat side by side, from Qingshu-kun's point of view, it seemed that they were planting flowers It is the same as the worship ceremony of a Chinese wedding.

"Hold out your hand."

The two stretched out their hands, Haruki-kun's eyes were sharp, and sure enough, under Kaiteng-kun's sleeve, he could see the faint color of the old red rope.

"This time, they brought back a piece of good news, take it."

After that, he handed the letter in his hand to the two of them.

"This is..." The two were stunned for a moment, and finally Xing went to open the letter that fell into the palms of the two.The handwriting on it is not unfamiliar, because Qingming-kun has also written waka during these days of temporary residence, and they can be regarded as recognizable.Abe Seimei's handwriting wrote each date and hour on the letter.Xing already knew what it was, and blushed quietly.It wasn't long before Kaito-kun came back, and he didn't know that Haruki-kun and Xing asked Abe-sama to help them calculate the auspicious days, and he was still a little unclear.

"This is the auspicious day that Mr. Abe will help you calculate next year. Next year, Xing will be able to marry. Originally, next year, you can choose a date at will, but the matter of grandfather... I can only wrong you to choose a time as soon as possible. .”

"Yes."

Qingshu-kun waved his hand and asked the two to retreat to discuss.After the two retreated, Mr. Qingshu suppressed the smile on his face, and burned the two letters that Xing brought back one by one in the candle beside him.

Now, it's not just the system that is forcing him to speed up his pace, even the current situation in his life doesn't allow him to live so leisurely and slowly.

Fortunately, the seafood store's profit rewards this time are not useless.

Qingshu-kun looked at the box on his desk, and opened it lightly.Inside is a wooden carving, which is a symbol of wealth, but it is not the symbol of wealth in the country.Probably those traders heard that he likes to read books from the Song and Tang dynasties, and ancient biographies.I don't know where I got this thing, the mythical animal that represents wealth in the flower planting country: Pixiu.

After Mr. Qingshu received the gift from the vendor, the reward for the seafood shop's profit also showed the words that the distribution was successful.

Mr. Qingshu touched the wooden carved Pixiu, and sighed silently in his heart. He didn't know if the beasts from the country of planting flowers would be of any use to Japan, and he couldn't tell whether the wooden plaque carried blessings or spirituality.It's a pity that the reward didn't come sooner, so he could ask Jiuro to bring it to Abe Seimei to have a look.In this way, we can only wait for Abe Seimei to come again.

As for the White Fox God Envoy, forget it. If you really ask so straightforwardly, the legend of Inari God also has the theocracy of wealth. god……

It is estimated that there will be no good results.
