Chapter 161 Having women on both sides is the greatest joy in life.
The next morning, a faint fragrance filled the council hall of Daming Prefecture.
Shizune and Kurenai stood below, feeling uneasy.
They were all wearing the newly made secretary uniforms, one blue and one red, which made their faces even more beautiful.
Uchiha Mitsunori sat behind the desk, his moon-white robes accentuating his shoulders and back, making him appear as upright as a pine tree.
He tapped his fingertips lightly on the table, his gaze sweeping over the two of them, his eyes somewhat alluring: "From today onwards, you will be my secretaries."
Jingyin subconsciously bit her lower lip, and her earring swayed gently with the slight movement.
Kurenai secretly raised her eyes, only to meet the lazy smile in the corner of Mitsumine's eyes. She immediately lowered her head again, her ear tips turning red.
Uchiha Mitsunori casually pointed to the mountain of files on the table, a lazy smile playing on his lips.
In a confident, authoritative yet casual tone, he said, "You should familiarize yourselves with the government affairs first. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me anytime."
The two quickly stepped forward and placed the organized documents on the table.
Shizune's expression was solemn and respectful, her earrings swaying gently: "Yes, Your Excellency, I will obey your orders."
Uchiha Mitsunori's eyes darted around, his voice carrying a hint of casual laziness: "Kurenai, come here and help me take a look at this document."
Kurenai Yuhi paused for a moment, then quickly stepped forward.
Just as she was engrossed in reading the words on the document, Uchiha Mitsunori suddenly reached out and gently brushed his fingers across her cheek, tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear.
His fingertips deliberately lingered on her earlobe for a moment, feeling the warmth of her delicate skin.
Jingyin watched in stunned silence, her teacup wobbling as she picked it up, nearly spilling the warm water.
She never expected that Daimyo would be so openly "close" to Kurenai.
"Your Excellency!" Kurenai exclaimed, her cheeks instantly turning as red as the evening clouds, even her neck was tinged with crimson.
Uchiha Mitsumine smiled calmly, gently rubbing her earlobe with his fingers.
Then, he leaned closer, his breath softly whispering in her ear, "What's wrong? As my secretary, can't you even handle this little bit of intimacy? Or... are you... expecting more?"
Kurenai felt her heart was about to leap out of her chest.
Uchiha Mitsunori's gaze seemed to carry warmth as it roamed over her face and neck; his undisguised admiration made her feel hot all over.
She could only shake her head frantically, her voice barely a whisper: "No, Your Excellency..."
Uchiha Mitsunori suddenly spoke with a hint of command: "Kurenai, look up at me."
He gently pinched her chin with his fingers, forcing her to look up.
Kurenai instinctively looked up and met his deep eyes.
Her reflection was in it, along with a hint of allure that she couldn't understand.
Uchiha Mitsumine gently brushed two fingers across her lower lip, his tone filled with admiration: "Such beautiful eyes, like the rosy clouds at sunset... No wonder she's called Red. From now on, you'll sit to my right while I work. I like... being close to you."
His movements were gentle, yet carried an irresistible aggressiveness.
As the sun set, its face flushed, I felt my heart pounding like crazy.
......
Just then, Uchiha Mitsunori suddenly turned to Shizune: "Shizune, come here too."
Jingyin was startled and cautiously stepped forward.
Her wrist was suddenly covered by a warm palm.
Uchiha Mitsunaga's large hand gently caressed the delicate skin on her wrist: "Shizune, your hands are so soft."
The sudden touch made Shizune freeze, and a corner of the paper in her hand slipped off with a "whoosh".
Uchiha Mitsunori, however, swiftly caught it, his tone teasing: "What, scared? Or am I too close to you?"
Silent's face flushed instantly, and even her breathing became rapid.
She hurriedly withdrew her hand, lowered her head, and stammered, "Your Excellency...no..."
Uchiha Mitsumine chuckled, then picked up a teacup from the table, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to her: "Drink some hot water, don't be nervous. After all, we'll be spending every day together from now on."
Jingyin's cheeks flushed as she watched, and she gripped her teacup tighter, yet she couldn't help but steal glances at him.
Uchiha Mitsunori reached out and grasped her wrist, pulling her closer: "I've heard your medical ninjutsu is amazing, so please take a look at why my heart is beating so fast."
"Your Excellency, you are in excellent health." Shizune's voice trembled slightly.
Uchiha Mitsumine chuckled and suddenly pulled her to sit on his lap: "Perfect timing, my shoulders have been a bit sore lately, give me a massage."
Shizune blushed and pressed her trembling fingers against his shoulder.
Uchiha Mitsunori closed his eyes and let out a comfortable sigh: "Shizune, your technique is good... a little harder..."
Kurenai Yuhi stood to the side, watching this scene, and for some reason felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
As if reading her mind, Uchiha Mitsunori suddenly opened his eyes and beckoned to her: "Kurenai, come here too. What are you doing standing so far away?"
Yuhi Kurenai hesitated before approaching, but Mitsumine suddenly reached out and pulled her into his arms, making her sit on his other lap.
He chuckled softly, "That's good. Having two women on your left and right is the true joy of life."
Both girls were too embarrassed to speak, yet dared not break free.
Seeing the two of them in a panic, Uchiha Mitsunori's smile deepened.
"From now on, Shizune will sit to my left while I work, and Kurenai will sit to my right... I like... you two being closer to me."
Kurenai and Shizune, both blushing, retreated to their respective seats, their legs still trembling slightly as they sat down.
Kurenai stole a glance at Daimyo and found him looking at her with a half-smile.
She immediately lowered her head again, her fingers gripping the hem of her skirt tightly.
Jingyin stared at the table, not daring to even glance at Sanfeng out of the corner of her eye.
But she could clearly feel his gaze falling on her from time to time, making her heart pound.
Just then, an announcement came from outside the door: "Your Excellency, Elder Yuanshi requests an audience."
Uchiha Mitsunaga then released the two, his tone returning to normal: "Alright, you two go ahead and get back to work. Come see me again tonight... to report on your work..."
The two felt as if they had been granted a pardon and hurriedly tidied their clothes and left.
As they brushed past Elder Yuan, they could all sense the meaningful look in his eyes.
The news spread quickly: the daimyo of the Land of Water had hired two beautiful female secretaries. Not only did he have them work closely with him, but he also frequently showed them affection in public, behaving in an inappropriate way, even neglecting the queens.
Deep within the Daimyo's mansion, Uchiha Mitsunori stood by the window, listening to the Anbu's report on the reactions of various countries, a cold smile playing on his lips.
"Fine, let them continue to think that way."
