Chapter 223 His Birthday
Su Tian rubbed over bit by bit, and while no one was paying attention, she raised her index finger and poked Quan Juan's reddish cheek.

The little girl's nails are well manicured, and they are soft when poked.

Quan Juan half-closed his eyes, his voice was a little hoarse after drinking, and his ears were low, "...Your Highness?"

This voice made people commit crimes, not to mention the somewhat blurred eyes after drinking, not as serious as usual, making Su Tian's lips dry.

Swallowing her saliva, Su Tian said, "I, I'm a little cold."

In the current season, it is indeed still cold in the morning and at night.

Quan Juan looked down at her, she was indeed wearing thin clothes, so she got up to take off her outer clothes.

"No need." Su Tian pressed Quan Juan's hand and whispered, "Ah Juan, let's go back."

"Okay." Quan Yu nodded.

The two got up and quietly left their seats amidst the hustle and bustle.

Most of the people at the banquet were drunk and no one talked much.

The night was just right, and there was no one else around except the scattered guards passing by.

Quan Jue suddenly said, "Today is the third day of March."

Su Tian stepped on the shadow cast by the torch on the ground, and replied casually: "I know."

"Today, the third day of March, is my birthday."

"Hmm..." Su Tian responded, and suddenly came to her senses, her eyes widened, and she looked directly at Quan Yu: "You...what did you just say?!"

"The third day of March is my birthday." Quan Jue lowered his head, watched her and repeated it again.

This sentence was like a bolt of lightning, and it hit Su Tian in front of her with stars in her eyes.

"Why didn't you tell me." Su Tian's eyes seemed wronged and angry, "It's getting dark now."

She had asked about Quan Juan's birthday in private before, but Quan Juan always evaded it.

She knew that on the day of Quan Juan's birthday, the emperor of the Northern Ming Dynasty bloodbathed the palace, and Quan Juan definitely didn't like celebrating this birthday, so she didn't want to press her.

But now I suddenly know, it's so late, where is she going to prepare a birthday gift for him?
Moreover, it was her 20th birthday, so she had to solemnly bow her crown.

Quan Juan shook his head, stretched out a hand to hug her, embraced her, and whispered to her, "I don't want to think about it, you are enough."

Su Tian's eyes turned red: "But I...I want to live with you."

Seemingly seeing what she was thinking, Quan Jue said in a low voice: "I have had the crowning ceremony since I was 15 years old."

"That's different." Su Tian shook her head.

"This is the best birthday I've ever had." Quan Jue hugged her tightly: "In less than two months, it will be your birthday."

If it wasn't for her, he wouldn't even want to celebrate his birthday.

Su Tian wrapped her hands around his waist, her ears pressed against his chest, she could hear a clear heartbeat, and sighed softly, "Yes, we have been out for a long time, and I don't know when we will end and return to the royal city."

Now that they have won the battle, they have broken through the Daliang fortress south of Henan in one fell swoop, severely damaged the Daliang army, and forced people to retreat to the northern part of Henan. This is already a very good record.

Quan Jue stroked her long hair and sighed: "I'm afraid this battle will last for a long time."

They feared that it would not be so easy for them to return to the royal city.

"Why?" Su Tian raised her head in confusion.

They sent troops because Daliang repeatedly harassed them on the border, and now Daliang has been repelled, shouldn't they go back?

"It's not that simple." Quan Yu said slowly: "Your Highness, people are ambitious, and it's not easy to accept what you see."

If what King Qianqiu wants is not to repel but to defeat, then this battle will be fought occasionally.

Su Tian's eyes darkened slightly, but she also understood.

Repelling is already inappropriate, and defeating is even more difficult.
