When Sawada Ya returned to Abe Seimei's house in Tsuchimikado Koji, the heavy rain had already started to gradually subside.

Gu Huo Niao opened a traditional paper umbrella to cover Zetian Mi's head, and the clogs under the feet of little loli stepped on the bluestone road in the yard, making a rhythmic "da da" sound.The aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus in the yard was suppressed by the rain, and the aroma of green grass and soil was carried all over the garden by the wind.

Sawada Ya turned around the path in the front yard and saw Abe Seimei in a white safari suit sitting on the porch enjoying the rain while drinking from a distance.

So her footsteps were a little faster, she changed her shoes by the corridor, and then happily ran towards the Great Onmyoji.

"Sunny."

Gu Huo Niao put away the Tang paper umbrella that was still dripping behind her, and handed it to Shikigami who was guarding the side.

Kneeling at the table and pouring wine for Qingming is Xun, a new shikigami he summoned from the sweet-scented osmanthus.After Sawada Ya ran to the table and sat down, she put down the flagon and took the towel she had prepared.Shikigami lowered his head meekly, put little loli's long rain-soaked hair in a towel, and wiped it gently and meticulously.

"Qingming, I met someone doing tricks at the intersection of the West City at noon today." Sawada Ya began to tell the Great Onmyoji about his morning itinerary with great interest.

"What kind of trick is it?" Abe Seimei also smiled and listened with great interest, even though the spells of those street mages were like child's play in the eyes of the Great Onmyoji.

"He sprinkled a handful of melon seeds on the ground, and soon the seeds took root and sprouted to produce cucumbers." Little Loli drew a circle with her hands in front of her, making a picture of a green melon.But after she finished speaking, she was confused for another two seconds, "Well, it's said to be so, but I didn't see anything..."

"Because Ji Jun has spiritual vision." Abe Seimei picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine, and said with a smile, "The mage used nothing but illusions, which cannot fool Ji Jun's eyes."

"That's it." Zetian Ya nodded thoughtfully, and then felt a little regretful, "Then I won't be able to see other people doing tricks in the future."

"Well, Ji-jun has to work hard." Abe Seimei looked at her with a smile, "You have to be strong to control Spirit Vision. After Ji-jun really controls this ability, you will be able to see it."

The purpose of working hard to be strong is to watch street performers juggle. The reason for this encouragement is probably only Abe Seimei can say.

However, the person who said it was calm, and the person who listened did not feel that there was anything wrong.Not only was Sawada Lolita quickly convinced by this logic, but she also nodded seriously and assured him, "Well, I will work hard!"

The Great Onmyoji is teasing the loli at home while drinking, and the drizzle outside the porch eaves hits the blades of grass, enveloping the whole world.The sky was gloomy, so those who sat on the porch to enjoy the rain suddenly felt a little more leisurely "stealing a half-day leisure".

The grass near the corridor swayed slightly, and a fluffy lizard came out from the deep weeds, jumped onto the corridor, stood up on its two legs in a humane manner, with its two front paws hanging down in front of its body, paired with Xuanshu's big round eyes are very naive.

Because it walked through the drenched grass, most of the rat's fur was also wet by the rain.It seemed to be a little unaccustomed to shaking its fur, and when it spoke, it made a human voice, "Master Seimei, a guest is here."

"Oh? Is it Boya?" Abe Seimei first thought of Yuan Boya, who came to visit him without calling in advance in this weather.

"And Lord He Mao Baoxian."

Said that Cao Cao Cao Cao arrived.

Not long after Xuan Shu's voice fell, He Mao Baoxian's loud voice had already spread from the front door to the backyard.

"Qingming, why don't you put a shikigami at the door to catch the heavy rain, and at least help hold an umbrella."

"Senior Brother Yu took the time to visit my residence, and I am deeply surprised." Abe Seimei calmly raised his wine glass, and he couldn't see where he was surprised at all.

"Besides, I obviously have arranged for a shikigami to greet me. Just now, it dutifully told me that there was a guest."

He Mao Baoxian strode over, questioning bluntly, "Where did you arrange Shikigami..."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Xuanshu who was picked up by Shikigami Xun for a towel to wipe his fur.

Xuanshu raised a pair of black bean-like eyes and looked at him innocently.

He Mao Baoxian: "..."

He silently held back the words that followed.

"Qingming." At this moment, Boya, who was a step behind him, finally came up behind He Mao Baoxian, breaking the awkward embarrassment of speechlessness.

It wasn't until the two of them were seated that Abe Seimei slowly put down his glass.After Ling Nu put away the Tang paper umbrella and the rain capes of the two guests, she walked along the long corridor with two empty wine glasses and a jug of sake.The hem of the lilac-colored Tang clothes brushed softly across the wooden corridor, and the beautiful Shikigami knelt down on the side of the table near the courtyard, pouring wine for the two guests quietly with lowered eyes.

Abe Seimei: "Brother and Boya, why did you two come together today?"

"I happened to meet at the door." He Mao Baoxian waved his hand, took a sip from the wine glass handed over by Ling Nu.It was raining today, and the cat didn't like its fur getting wet, so it didn't come with him, so He Mao Baoxian drank this glass of wine very comfortably.

"Well, I have business with Seimei." Yuan Boya was not in such a hurry, he took the wine poured by Shikigami and put it on the table.When he saw Sawada Ya on the opposite side, the black-haired young man first showed a tangled expression of "Oops, I forgot to bring a gift!", and then greeted the little loli a little nervously and nervously.Fortunately, Sawada Ya still remembered him and returned the gift very obediently.

So Yuan Boya smiled contentedly for a while, and then turned his attention to Qingming.

"Actually, there are two things."

The black-haired young man scratched his head, and he seemed a little embarrassed when he spoke, "I just wanted to discuss it with you... I received a letter from a woman. Uh, it's a Japanese song to be precise."

Baoxian Kamo and Seimei Abe raised their eyebrows at the same time, and then Senior Brother Kamo immediately became interested, put down his glass and moved forward, and asked in a very gossip spirit, "Which Ji Jun gave it to you?"

The nobles of Heiankyo received a lot of waka from women. Not to mention other people, the waka collections he received by Kamo Hosen himself could produce a collection of waka, not to mention his younger brother who is said to be more popular than him Seimei Abe.

It's just that when this supposedly normal scene was placed on Yuan Boya, it was inexplicably more inconsistent.What the noble ladies of Heianjing like is the artistic conception, the elegance, and the ten meanings that can be broken down into three sections of waka.Naturally, the most preferred one is Abe Seimei, who is as bright as the moon, even if he is the distant moon hanging on the sky, which can only be seen from a distance, but it can’t stop the girls in Heianjing from saying "my heart is towards the bright moon". heart of.Although the four members of Boya were born noble, young, promising and handsome, their attainments in gala music can be said to be the pinnacle.But other than that, he has nothing to do with elegance in other respects, he is indeed a piece of incomprehensible wood that can't even bloom.

"Well, I don't know either." The perplexed Yuan Boya honestly described the scene at that time, "It was two afternoons ago, I just came out of the Qingliang Hall, holding the "Prajna Sutra" copied by the emperor, I was planning to make offerings to Dongji Temple. When I passed Chengming Gate, suddenly a girl about seven or eight years old ran out from under the cherry blossom tree in Zichen Palace, and handed me a letter with a gentian flower attached to it."

He Mao Baoxian: "Then, what was written in the letter?"

"It's a waka, I didn't understand it anyway." Yuan Boya took out the letter from his arms silently, and handed it to Abe Seimei.

The Great Onmyoji took it with great interest, and slowly read the waka line in the letter in his elegant and pleasant voice.

"It's clear that the hanging ox is pulling me, but unexpectedly the car returns to his will."

"What do you mean?"

Sawada Lolita from the modern era and Minamoto Hiroya who doesn't understand Waka at all are confused together.

Abe Seimei raised his eyes slightly from the letter paper and saw the dazed and neat faces of the two people. At a glance, he could really see some kind of blood connection.Da Yinyang laughed immediately, and in the eyes of Sawada Lolita full of curiosity, it was rare for him to translate very frankly.

"The meaning of this waka is that a woman expresses her resentment to a man who only occasionally meets."

He Mao Baoxian looked at Yuan Boya suddenly with subtle eyes.

And the four Boya didn't notice his eyes at all, because it was obvious that he was still in a daze.Sawada Ya, who was sitting on the other side, asked his bewilderment sincerely with a tacit understanding.

"Qingming, how do you see this?"

"Because men usually go by car when they go to a woman's residence for a tryst. This waka uses a ox-drawn cart as a metaphor for a woman's inner depression. The last sentence is because the other party has other meanings, implying the cow in the previous sentence.' The pronunciation of 'niu' is the same as that of 'worry'..."

Abe Seimei gave a long explanation of this simple waka.Yuan Boya was dumbfounded, because he scratched his head and didn't expect to be able to solve it like this.

Until Boya finally understood this waka, and then he sat on the side and started to be in a daze.Because he couldn't think of which woman he unilaterally snubbed... Normally, everyone snubbed each other, didn't they?

On the other side, Loli Sawada tilted her head and looked at the Great Onmyoji who was able to solve these riddle-like waka with ease.

"Sunny."

"Well, what happened to Ji Jun?"

"Seimei seems to understand these things very well." Sawada Ya was thoughtful.

He Mao Baoxian, who was drinking because it had nothing to do with him, was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and laughed, "That's right, that's right, Junior Brother is good at dealing with women!"

"To deal with women?"

"Yeah, you don't know yet. The ladies of Gongqing's family are very fond of Qingming. A few days ago, the daughter of Dr. Zuo Jing's family..."

"Senior brother." Before He Mao Baoxian finished speaking, Abe Seimei interrupted him with a smile, "It's very impolite to talk about a female son in private."

He Mao Baoxian choked up, then muttered softly, "This is not false talk, it's the truth."

Yuan Boya came back to his senses, and thoughtfully, "I've heard of it, the eldest daughter of General Zuo Jinwei's family..." After that, he hid it in Qingming's smiling eyes.

Sawada Ya, who was sitting in the middle, looked at the two of them, then at Seimei, and suddenly realized, "So Seimei is a playboy?"

"puff."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

The two people who had just been suppressed by Abe Seimei were suddenly ignited by Sawada Lolita's words.Although the word "Playboy" has not yet appeared in Heian-kyo, Kamo Baoxian and Yuan Hiroya quickly understood the meaning of the word just by hearing it.Homo Kamo winked at Lori Sawada, "Seimei is very popular in Heian-kyo."

The person being ridiculed sat lazily on the seat and played with the bat fan. He turned his head indifferently and smiled at Sawa Tami, "If Ji Jun is interested, I can teach you."

"Wait, Qingming, why did you teach Jun Ji this..."

"It's just a way to get along with people, and besides, isn't Hege Feiju something that every female son of a Gongqing's family must learn?"

Yuan Boya was taken aback, and his thoughts followed Abe Seimei unconsciously, "That being said..."

"Let's start with "Manyoshu." Abe Seimei closed the fan and said with a smile, "I will let Shikigami teach Ji Jun."

"Shikigami, let my mother send one or two female officials over when I go back. At this age, you can start to understand things like court etiquette..." Yuan Boya continued to arrange following this idea.

Sawada Ya looked around and asked in a daze, "Aren't you talking about Seimei and the girl?" Why did she go around asking her to learn waka?

Yuan Boya, who was discussing vigorously, and He Mao Baoxian, whose thoughts were also led astray, choked up at the same time, and looked at each other in bewilderment.

Abe Seimei laughed softly.

"Oh, I still didn't hide it from Ji Jun."

Sawada Ya puffed up her cheeks and looked at him, "Seimei, you changed the subject again."

I also added two extra courses to her, angry!

The author has something to say: 〖It is clear that the ox is pulling me, but unexpectedly the car is coming back〗

This waka includes Seimei's explanation from Dream Pillow Tapir's "Onmyoji".

When I read it, I was as confused as Boya. This thing is even more difficult to understand than Tang poetry.
