A gentle kiss made Li Xiaodong's heart turbulent.

He couldn't help but stretch out his hands, kiss her softly, wrap around her soft waist, and gently take Yumiko into his arms.

As the soft kiss between the two gradually lingered like fire, as Yumiko began to let out a slight moan, Li Xiaodong couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts, he remembered the past, and then remembered a lot.

Yumiko used to be his enemy of life and death, and now he is his lover of life and death, but Yumiko is about to get married, and he doesn't know what kind of life Yumiko will be like in the future.

He suddenly had an idea that maybe he could keep Yumiko by his side and officially become his own woman. But the idea was only fleeting, and Li Xiaodong subsequently rejected the idea.

Li Xiaodong thought of her identity: she was the daughter of Emperor Ritai, and she was the princess of Nichidai.

It is undoubtedly fortunate to have such a noble identity, but at the same time it is also sad, he knows very well that it is difficult for Yumiko to change her life, and she may not be able to choose for herself whose woman she will be.

Li Xiaodong sighed in his heart, hugged Yumiko tighter, and kissed her more and more lingeringly.

......

In the aft deck area, Aiko accompanied Luo Xin on a leisurely walk on the boat, and both of them looked idle.

After walking around casually, Aiko was a little tired, so she found a seat in the rear deck area for visitors to rest and sat down to rest for a while.

Rohin behaved like a gentleman, and he went to the night supermarket on a cruise ship, and bought a lot of snacks and drinks, apparently intending to spend some time with Miss Aiko.

Aiko was unceremonious, squeezed her little hand, and ate a piece of potato chips.

"Luo Xin, I think you Chinese men are very gentlemen, and you care about girls very much, as if you are all generous by nature and will naturally take care of girls. ”

Luo Xin took a sip of his drink and looked at the sea in the distance: "Don't get me wrong, I don't mean that, I just treat you as a friend." ”

Aiko glanced at him after hearing this, and said after a while: "I don't need you to remind me kindly, Aiko won't misunderstand, Aiko doesn't mean anything special to you, and Aiko just treats you as an ordinary friend." She continued to eat a potato chip and said, "My son has no father or mother, he is an orphan, he was taken in by the royal family since he was a child, and he grew up in the palace. According to Aiko's situation, there is a chance that Aiko will always be by His Royal Highness's side in the future and serve Miss Yumiko forever. ”

Luo Xin put down his drink, lit a cigarette to himself, and asked, "Then what should you do after Her Royal Highness Yumiko marries?

"Yes, Aiko is an orphan without a father and mother, of course he must be by the side of the young lady, this is the fate of Aiko, and it is also the duty of Aiko. "Aiko is a matter of course.

"Then I'm strange, are you a bachelor all your life and never look for a man?" Luo Xin asked.

"That's not necessarily, if Miss Yumiko's husband loves Aiko, Aiko will not only regard him as a good master to serve, but also treat him as the husband in Aiko's life in his heart, depending on Aiko's luck. Aiko said calmly, as if she was talking about someone else's life, as if she had no complaints about such fate.

"Then what's the difference between your appearance and the ancient marrying girl?What age is this, and you people in the palace are still popular with this set?" Luo Xin asked a little incomprehensibly.

Aiko said disapprovingly: "What's this, the Kyoto Imperial Palace has been this tradition since ancient times, as long as it is a fatherless and motherless maid, such as Aiko's case, most of them will stay with the young lady and will not leave for life." This is the quality of loyalty, and it is also the belief that every maid should have, as long as Miss Yumiko does not expel Aiko, Aiko will always stay with Miss and will always be a member of Miss's family. ”

Luo Xin shook his head secretly when he heard this, and said: "It seems that I am lonely and unheard, I didn't expect that there is such a tradition in this era, what about human rights and women's rights? It seems that those Western newspapers are all lies." ”

He sighed inwardly.

Aiko said: "It's no wonder that you are lonely and unheard, you don't know a lot of things about the royal family, these things are generally not publicized, and there will be no newspapers to report them, and the Imperial Household Agency will not approve them." ”

Luo Xin listened to the disappointment, and also learned from her, and reached out to pinch a potato chip, "In that case, if any man marries your young lady, it is equivalent to marrying you into the door, which is equivalent to marrying two wives at the same time, and you can sleep with the young lady and Yahuan?"

Aiko thought for a moment after hearing this, and said: "Theoretically, this is the case, but it also depends on the attitude of the young lady, if Miss Yumiko feels that Aiko should not serve her husband, Aiko must follow the wishes of the young lady and maintain a sense of proportion with the male host." But in Aiko's opinion, this possibility is very small, because Miss Yumiko is generous, and she treats Aiko very well. ”

After hearing this, Luo Xin felt even more pantothenic acid in her heart, if anyone married Miss Yumiko, it would be a great blessing.

He thought of his good brother Xiaodong for a while, and then thought of Yumiko's nominal fiancé Muramasa, and he felt that both of them were possible, but no matter what, such a good thing would not fall on his head after all.

He turned his head and asked, "Miss Aiko, Miss Yumiko's fiancé Muramasa, I don't think His Highness seems to have feelings for him, do you think there is such a possibility, His Highness will not marry him in the end?"

As soon as I heard this question, Aiko, who was originally quite happy, gradually became less happy with the expression on her little face.

"Not only does the young lady have no feelings for Mr. Muramasa, but she doesn't have any good feelings for him, but Mr. Muramasa is the imperial concubine promised by Emperor Renzhi himself, and it is difficult for the young lady to refuse. In this life, the young lady is likely to be with Mr. Muramasa. ”

She said disappointedly: "Actually, Aiko doesn't want Miss to marry Mr. Muramasa, because Aiko can see that Miss must be very painful with him, and Aiko can also see that although Mr. Muramasa is excellent everywhere, he has ambitions, and what he values is not Miss Yumiko's heart, but Miss's beauty and the status of a royal princess, and he wants more than a simple marriage." ”

After Luo Xin heard this, he didn't ask anything again.

"It's a pity, there was an opportunity before, but it's a pity that Miss Yumiko didn't take it. There is a man named Li Xiaodong, who is the lover of the young lady, the young lady likes it very much, and Aiko also likes it very much, and at that time the man also won the unanimous respect of all the royal family members such as Emperor Renzhi and the old emperor who has not abdicated, Aiko thought that the young lady would keep him by her side, but unfortunately, he left silently and could not be found again, and when she thought of this incident, Aiko often felt deep pity for the young lady and herself......"

Aiko said to herself, her eyes had already looked at the vast sea in the distance, as if she remembered the past, and fell into a period of worry.
