I am the Envoy of the Winter

His single-handed swordsmanship can be used with ease even in the face of some holders of the God's Eye.

"Take care of this rock, if someone appears nearby... Try not to provoke him, just bring him into the living room of the mansion."

Regarding the instructor's authority, it was a bit sensational, so he didn't intend to tell his subordinates.

Even at the end of the episode, except for a very small number of core members, he didn't intend to say anything about it.

"My subordinate understands!"

After giving some instructions, Ayato Kanli returned home with peace of mind.

As soon as he entered the door, he began to subconsciously look at this very familiar home.

On the right hand side of the entrance is the branch shrine of Narugami Taisha.

The person in charge here is Miko Toda.

Since the shrine is responsible for various sacrificial activities and celebration entertainment, it is inevitable that there will be more visits to Narujin Taisha Shrine related to the sacrificial celebration.

Yae Miko didn't like to deal with Kamisato Aya, so he enshrined a branch shrine in Kamisato's house, and sent this priestess named Toda to take care of the matter.

But Ayato Kamisato knew that Miyazaki-sama had set up such a branch at the Kamisato House in the first place, purely to make the Kamisato family, which was shaky at that time, more stable.

After all, there is a Zhisha with Lord Narugami, who would dare to make trouble in the Shenli family?

"Master Fengxing, you are back."

Koharu, who was cleaning Zhisha, hurriedly saluted after seeing Ayato Kamisato.

As a servant of the Shenli family, she is responsible for the cleanliness of the Shenli family.

Let's put it this way... She may know more about what is in the Kamisato house than Kamisato Ayato himself.

"Xiaochun, I want to ask you something."

Beckoning Xiaochun over, Ayato Kamisato took out the photo hidden in his sleeve.

"Do we have such flowers at home?"

After seeing the photo in Kamisato Ayato's hand, Xiaochun showed a disturbed look on his face.

She hastily bowed and said, "Holding... I'm sorry, Mr. Fengxing, I did have this kind of flower at home before, but Mrs. Gutian and Mr. Thomas said it was just a kind of wild flower. I don't think it's necessary to keep them. And cleaned them up."

Xiaochun thought that this kind of flower was specially brought by Shenli Lingren, and she blamed herself very much.

Originally, with the existence of Mr. Thomas, these domestic servants seemed a bit redundant.

Fortunately, Mr. Thomas is only responsible for serving the Lord and Miss, so he gave them the opportunity to work.

Now... did she screw up the job?

"Don't worry, you've done a good job. If you still have this kind of flowers at home, please let me know."

"Okay...Okay! Thank you, Mr. Feng Xing."

After learning that she would not be held accountable, Xiaochun breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, I was also a little curious as to why Mr. Fengxing was suddenly interested in this kind of flower.

But she was very clever and didn't ask. After working in Shenli's house, she learned a truth from Granny Gutian.

If you want to do a good job as a domestic servant, you only need to know one thing.

Do a good job in the work at hand, and less inquire about the affairs of the Lord's family.

Knowing too much is not a good thing.

After bidding farewell to Xiaochun, he returned to the study room. As soon as he walked in the door, he smelled a refreshing fragrance.

And this fragrance came from the hand of his younger sister, Ayaka Kamisato.

As the rice wife Princess Egret, Kamisato Ayaka is most well-known to the public for her tea ceremony, kendo and chess way.

The heart of tea, and the righteous heart of respect and tranquility.

Kenshin, the unstoppable Wuxin.

Chess heart, the wisdom heart of judging the situation.

Having mastered the three kinds of skills, she is like a noble lady with both civil and military skills and superb demeanor.

In addition, she is also very interested in ikebana and tea ceremony.

Occasionally, he would sneak into the kitchen to start a small stove while avoiding the servants.

Although her cooking skills are sometimes unsatisfactory, at least one ochazuke can still be sold.

But when he saw the source of the fragrance, Ayato's smile became stiff.

Because what my sister is practicing today is ikebana.

The so-called ikebana is the method and technique of appropriately cutting branches, leaves, and flowers of trees and flowers and inserting them into vases and other vases. In short, it is the art of flower arrangement.

This is also one of the courses that must be learned by the noble women of Inazuma's famous family. Normally, Ayato Shenli might take the initiative to urge her younger sister to study.

But looking at the inconspicuous light blue flower among the strange flowers, he felt suffocated for a while.

Sister, this flower can't be put in!

"Brother, you are back."

As the eldest lady of the Kamisato family, Kamisato Ayaka has been taught since she was a child that she must abide by etiquette in a place like the study.

So even though there were only the two of them, brother and sister, she subconsciously used honorifics.

"What's the matter with this flower...?"

After sitting back in his seat, Ayato Kanli looked at the light blue flower and asked aloud.

"You said this, the teacher of Huadao said, sometimes we don't have to stick to those strange flowers and plants, and we can also properly focus on those ordinary little flowers. A few days ago, I just saw Xiaochun put these The wildflowers were cleaned up, so I secretly planted a few in my room for flower arrangements.”

"..."

Knowing that Kamisato Ayaka not only secretly hid this kind of flower, but also kept it in her room, Kamisato Aya was suffocated for a while.

"Ayaka, this flower...where do you keep it?"

"Bedside, for the convenience of taking care of it, I deliberately put it in the place closest to me."

"..."

At this moment, there is only one word in Kanli Ayato's mind.

Ruined!

Chapter 248

"Brother?"

Kamisato Ayaka was originally a very sensitive person, so she also caught her brother's strange behavior.

"Let Granny Gu Tian also see your accomplishments in flower arrangement."

Kamisato Ayato stretched out his hand, indicating that he was fine, then picked up the government affairs that had not been dealt with before, and continued to deal with them.

But what he said made Kansato Linghua stunned for a moment.

Granny Gutian is the housekeeper of the Shensato family. She has served three generations of priests, and can be said to be the oldest person in the entire community.

But she doesn't seem to have dabbled in ikebana, why...

"I see."

Perhaps because of the tacit understanding between the siblings, Kamisato Linghua immediately understood what her brother meant, and left the study with her work, only to return after a while.

During this period, Ayato Kanli had checked the study thoroughly and confirmed that there were no such flowers.

"Brother, what happened?"

"Look at this."

Kamisato Ayato did not directly tell her the cause and effect of the matter, but took out the photos first.

"This is......"

The folding fan was lightly opened and the mouth was covered. This is the most common behavior of the noble lady to hide her surprise.

During this period of time, she has been secretly raising this wild flower.

Although she talked about the hype, in fact, she saw an ordinary girl in the outskirts of the city raising flowers on the way back after finishing chores. She also wanted to try to be like an ordinary girl and do something that [Ayaka-sama] is not suitable for. matter.

"Actually...it was given to me by Lord Gong Si."

After seeing her sister's reaction, Kamisato Ayato realized that the flowers raised by her sister should be such taboo wild flowers.

So he told his sister all the ins and outs of the matter.

But the more he talked, the more he felt that there was something wrong with his sister's expression.

That slightly embarrassed expression... Could it be...

"That... brother, you said, it is the instructor's eyes and ears, right?"

"Whether the instructor can see things through this thing, I'm not sure yet, but what is certain is...he can indeed hear things through this thing, and shuttle from anywhere in Daozuma."

After all, he had personally experienced it, so naturally he would not guess wrong.

Unexpectedly, after he finished speaking, Kanli Linghua's face turned red, and white smoke seemed to be floating above her head.

"You didn't do anything in front of this flower that's not... um... that kind of thing?"

Seeing his sister's performance, he became more and more uneasy.

But after his words fell, Kanli Linghua actually picked up the folding fan and completely covered her face.

If the person in front of her was not her own brother, she might have lost her composure and ran out.

How should I put it, as the eldest daughter of the Kamisato family and the egret princess of the shrine, Ayaka Kamisato was told to understand and practice etiquette since she was a child.

Therefore, her life is full of attention.

For example, what she envied the most were those ordinary girls who could laugh and play around wantonly.

And when she is in the room at night, it is the time when she sheds her dignified and prudent external image, and blooms her casual, free and true self.

Especially after raising these wild flowers, her favorite thing to do is to confide her thoughts to these wild flowers.

In just a few days, she basically confided all her secrets to the wildflower.

She only prays that the instructor can't see anything through the flower, otherwise...

I can't get married! !

Ayato Kamisato: "..."

"Actually, Zaoyou has also mentioned this ability to travel at will."

In order to relieve his sister's embarrassment, Ayato Kanli changed the subject on his own initiative, and began to talk about the information brought back by Sayuzu.

The child has been with the instructor for so long, but he didn't bring much news back.

But there are also some more useful things.

for example......

"No matter how I run or how far I run, he can [shua, slap, babble——] fall from the sky, and then press my head hard on the ground."

"Master Patriarch, that guy is super perverted! He obviously has the ability to catch me in the first place, but he still let me run far away, and when I was about to touch the boat, he fell from the sky and caught me back again, even if he was physically weak. Tortured me, but tortured me mentally, I need to ask for leave, I need to rest!"

This was what Zaoyou told him when Ayato Shenli had a heart-to-heart talk with Zaoyou.

At first, he thought that the kid was just making up excuses because he was afraid that he would blame him.

Now it seems... Even if Zaoyou is the best at escaping and hiding, compared with the instructor with such authority, it is still a little bit pale.

Especially Zaoyou's second paragraph.

Maybe the instructor's character was indeed a bit wicked, but he didn't act immediately, it should be because there were no such little flowers near Zaoyou.

She didn't do anything until she fled to a place where there were such small flowers.

And Zaoyou said another thing.

Once she asked the instructor why she was always caught, but the instructor only answered her with one sentence.

"Because you always run towards that boat."
