The young girl attended a girls' school where many of her classmates got married while still studying. They often chatted about their upcoming arranged marriages and how they could no longer continue their education. However, the Soldier Brother, who seemed indifferent, agreed that she could continue her studies even after getting married.
The girl’s mind began to race with wild thoughts, while Kujou had already started discussing other matters with One.
"One, tonight, the person from the Arima Family will come to see you. Bring him to meet me. What time is our Military Train scheduled?"
"Yes, Your Excellency. I will bring him to see you. The Military Train is scheduled for tomorrow morning!"
"Good. Arrange for someone to buy this girl some clothes. She will be following me from now on. Contact Harbin and arrange for a school so she can continue her education—high school, preferably."
"Yes, Your Excellency. I will send a telegram to Harbin right away. Should I inform Man Tie to handle this?"
"There are family members in Harbin. Has your father told you how to contact them?"
"Yes, the Takaishi Family, One's family, and the Kujou Family all have connections in Harbin. I have the contact list with Takaishi."
"Then let your family handle it. We don’t know Man Tie’s current situation or if he remains loyal to His Majesty. Let’s first gauge Man Tie’s stance through family connections before deciding how to approach him."
"I will arrange for someone at home to send a telegram. Rest assured, Your Excellency, everything will be prepared."
"One, you have always been trustworthy!"
"Thank you for your praise, Your Excellency."
Though they were distant relatives, the division of their families had created a significant gap between them. Moreover, One's family was several ranks above Kujou's, making Ichitaro appear as nothing more than a vassal or even a servant in front of Kujou Yuuma. This strict hierarchy was particularly evident within the noble system.
Upon arriving at the camp, the young girl was handed over to One, who would handle any subsequent issues. Kujou had often sought help from commoners in his memories and knew that One had ample experience in resolving problems.
The temporary camp was specifically set up to accommodate the Royal Guard Constabulary Regiment, so the conditions were certainly not lacking. After being invited into a warm room by the camp's managing officer, Kujou removed his coat and threw himself onto the bed to rest.
When One's rhythmic knock on the door woke him up, it was already dark outside.
"Your Excellency," One's voice called from outside, "Arima Jin II has arrived and is speaking with Takaishi. Dinner is ready; how would you like to proceed?"
"Just give me a moment; I'll be right there!"
A few minutes later, after tidying up his attire, Kujou opened the door and was respectfully led by One into the dining room where Takatsukasa Chikurin and Arima Jin II stood straight in anticipation of Kujou's arrival.
As soon as he entered, he waved his hand and urged everyone to sit down. "Please take a seat; we are all on the same side here—no need for formality!"
Hearing Kujou refer to them as "our people," Arima Jin II felt as if his spirit was soaring high into the sky.
He had already gained the recognition of Duke Kyuutou!
Kujou, just seated, glanced at the dishes on the table. There were several Japanese-style meals, but they were mixed with unique dishes from the Northeast, such as Chicken Stew with Mushrooms and Smacked Cucumber.
This was a military camp, so having Japanese cuisine was quite normal, but Chicken Stew with Mushrooms and Smacked Cucumber was definitely unusual!
Wait, why are there Northeast dishes here?
It was prepared by Miss Zhao!
Miss Zhao? Who is that?
She’s the one you saved this afternoon!
Oh! That one? I didn’t expect it; her cooking seems quite good!
Come on, let’s eat first. We can talk after we finish!
