Canglan Empress

Chapter 697
Yaohua set up a chess game on the low table.

Rong Jin came in with two jars of wine, and was slightly taken aback when he saw Yaohua sitting on the low couch, playing with chess pieces.

Immediately, the corners of his lips curled into a happy arc, and he said: "Looking at the festive atmosphere of the New Year's Eve banquet tonight, I didn't dare to challenge Your Highness beyond my control, but I didn't expect His Highness to be so interested."

Yaohua glanced at him: "Why, you don't want to come?"

"Of course I wanted to." Rong Jin quickly sat down opposite him, opened the wine jar, and handed a jar to Yaohua, "Rong Jin first offers a glass to Your Highness."

Yaohua took the wine and said it was a toast, but the two of them didn't bother to get the wine glasses, so they just held the wine jar and drank.

The clear aroma of wine permeated the room in an instant, filling the room with fragrance.

Drinking heavily and eating meat have always reflected the arrogance of people in the Jianghu. They were born in the royal family, and the upbringing etiquette they have accepted since childhood is reserved, elegant and calm.

Although Yaohua has not received formal instruction, his etiquette is not inferior to other princes, and it is rare for him to let go tonight.

Rong Jin felt very happy.

If this could be the case in this life - no need for a bright future, and no crowd of thousands of people.

Only he and Yaohua played a game of chess and two jars of wine.

It is the greatest satisfaction and the most perfect ending in his life.

"Every festive season, you miss your relatives a lot. At this time, you should actually be in the Northern Qi Palace, enjoying the hustle and bustle of the festival with your parents and relatives."

Rong Jin raised his eyes: "Being with you is my greatest wish."

Although he thought that Yaohua would not come back so early tonight, even though he had already made plans to spend New Year's Eve alone—even if Yaohua hadn't come back earlier, he might have slept in his room Sleep till dawn.

But he still prefers to be with Yaohua, even if he can't spend New Year's Eve together tonight, it will always be his wish to stay in the place closest to him.

Northern Qi Dynasty……

For the time being, it is impossible for him to go back to Northern Qi, because as long as he returns to Northern Qi, his father and Qin Tianjian will spare no effort to persuade him, and even use coercion and threats to force him to sever ties with Yaohua.

Rong Jin didn't care how others threatened the police, but he didn't want to hear those words.

Yaohua didn't speak, and there was no sign of anger on his face.

Anyway, Rong Jin has been more and more fond of expressing his feelings in a straightforward way recently. He has heard a lot of sweet words, and Yaohua doesn't feel much about it anymore.

The two drank some wine and put the wine jar aside.

Rong Jin reached out and took the chess box containing the sunspots, and according to the old rules, carry the sunspots first.

There was a quiet and harmonious atmosphere slowly lingering in the room.

The two are not so much playing chess, it is better to say that they are enjoying the time alone.

The chess pieces landed on the board, and Rong Jin occasionally turned his head to look out the window.

From time to time, one or two fireworks will explode in the night sky, making the night bright and beautiful.

"Tonight will pass, and tomorrow will be a new year." Rong Jin raised his eyes and looked at the young man opposite, "Yaohua, when is your birthday?"

It should be spring.

This summer, Rong Jin followed Yaohua to Dayong. In the past few months, Yaohua hadn't heard his birthday mentioned, so it shouldn't be in the second half of the year.

"Birthday?" Yao Hua casually raised his eyebrows, "What, you want to celebrate His Highness's birthday?"

Rong Jin was silent: "In a few months, His Highness will be 14 years old."
