Chapter 260: The Old Things Are Still There, but the Old People Are No More

"Isn't it a good place to talk?" Love's eyes looked around. Then, she knew in her heart: "I don't say the level of safety, it's a human problem." ”

"Come on!" Meiji beckoned to Ai and took the lead.

"Hmm!" Love responded, and stepped back to follow him.

"...... this?" At this time, because of the mind reading, many thoughts flashed through Love's heart. These thoughts are disorganized and have no clear center. Looking at it this way, the mind of the daimyo is also clear.

"Forget it!" Then, love didn't get the real thoughts of the daimyo. So, she turned off the mode.

After that, it was so quiet, and Ai followed behind the daimyo without making a sound.

Five minutes later, Ai and the others walked to a tall building.

"Open!" The daimyo waved his hand.

"Hey!" The samurai guarding the gate took out the key.

"Stay here, y'all!" The daimyo turned his head to look at the group of waiters behind him and said.

"It's the same with Guardian Shinobi, Ai Ji and I have some private things to say, and you all stay here."

"Your Majesty! It's too far away, and we can't guarantee His Majesty's safety 100 percent. At this time, seeing that the daimyo was about to leave their protective range, a Konoha ninja emerged from the air and said.

"Through? You're a senior of the Windswept family, right? "Love seems to be older than her, so she called her seniors.

"Seniors don't dare to be ......" The Shinobi and love of the Wind Clan are not very familiar, so there is a hint of coldness in his words.

"Hahahaha!" The daimyo laughed when he heard this, and said, "Mr. Wind, this person in front of you is also Konoha's shinobi!" With her by my side, what are you afraid of? ”

"Your Majesty! Assassin activity has been rampant lately! Seeing that Meiji didn't mean to change his mind, the Shinobi of the Hurricane family became a little anxious.

pinning his job on an unfamiliar young junior, as long as it is a normal forbearance, he will subconsciously refuse.

"That's it! I've decided! The daimyo's tone could not be refused. In this regard, he glared at Ai before leaving.

"Boom...... Squeak......"

With the effect of gravity, the wood made a "creaking" moan. At this time, Daimyo and Ai walked upstairs one after the other.

"Whew...... Whew...... Then, after going up two floors, the daimyo began to pant out of breath.

"Man! It's not okay to be dissatisfied! After feeling his physical condition, the daimyo turned around and smiled at Ai and said. After that, he continued to walk towards the top of the building.

However, it seems that it is the cause of the loss of strength, and when the daimyo was going up the stairs, his feet suddenly went soft. The next moment, he was about to tumble down the stairs.

If this result is confirmed, then with the current physique of the Daimyo, it is estimated that he will die on the spot.

"Smack!" In response, just as Daimyo's body was about to become unbalanced, Ai took a step forward and grabbed his arm.

It's okay......

At this point, the daimyo turned his head to look at the love around him. That delicate figure, that beautiful face......

"Be careful!" After that, the voice of love reminds me of the god of devotion.

"Oh! Oh...... I know. Then, with the help of love, the daimyo walked safely to the top floor of the tall building.

"It's time to ......" accompanied by a muttered from the Daimyo, Ai let go of the Daimyo's arm. After that, the daimyo strolled to the handrail of the tall building.

“…… Why? In this silent atmosphere, Ai took the lead in asking: "Whether it is the name of Princess Taiping or the gift of the princess's mansion, the things that Your Majesty has given me are beyond what I deserve." ”

"I know your mother......" Without immediately answering the question of love, the daimyo looked at the woods in front of him and said in a reminiscent tone, "When I first met her, she was six years old and I was fourteen. At that time, she and one of her clansmen were on a mission in the royal palace. ”

"Awesome!" The daimyo let out a heartfelt admiration and continued, "At the age of six, I defeated a ninja who was about to become an adult. At the time, she made a very deep impression on me. ”

"That's when I started to notice your mother's news." At this moment, Ai quietly listened to the memories of the old man beside him.

"However, because ninjas have always done a good job of their intelligence work, I haven't heard anything from your mother."

"The second time we met, it was forty years ago. At that time, I was the daimyo of the most powerful country in the world, and your mother was the patriarch of the strongest family in the ninja world at that time. ”

"Isn't it a good match?" Speaking of which, Meiji turned to Ai and asked.

"Huh?" Ai Sakura's mouth opened slightly, and her eyes were wide open. Apparently, she was blindsided by the sudden question asked.

"Hahahaha!" Daimyo looked at Moe Ai and suddenly burst out laughing.

"That's what I thought at the time, so I confessed to your mother right here. It's a pity......" Meiji said in a regretful tone, "...... The means were not strong enough, and your mother refused. At that time, your mother was also your expression. ”

"Really?" Suddenly hearing an interesting story about her mother, Love smiled and looked at the woods ahead.

"It's a pity...... Meiji also looked at the woods in front of him, and he began to say with some excitement, "If your mother promised me at that time, wouldn't she ......?"

"Sorry...... ...... gaffe," Meiji smiled wryly and wiped away the tears from his eyes.

"Nothing ......," Love whispered.

"By the way, don't you want to ask, why did I give you the name and mansion of the princess? Actually, I've been thinking about how good it would be that Aiki was my child! That's what I thought at the time, and I did it. ”

"Your Majesty......" Love doesn't know what to say about this.

"Can you call me father?" At this point, Meiji asked expectantly, "Just once!" ”

"I ...... I can't. "Love can't call a man we meet for the first time a father, even if it's a joke. In her heart, the existence of her father should be as great as her mother.

"It's hard for you, forget it!" Meiji didn't agree, so he didn't ask for anything.

After that, the two chatted there for a while and then began to go downstairs.

"Love, have you been in Kyoto for a long time?" When he was about to walk to the door, Meiji suddenly asked Ai.

"Me? I'm supposed to be here for a long time. Love replied.

"In that case, then you have to come to the palace more often and see me, an old man!" Meiji grinned happily when he received a reply from love.

"Okay......" Ai thought for a moment and nodded.
