Seeing the Emperor looking much older than his actual age, Eunuch Wan couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache.
"Your Majesty, it is getting late, why don't you head back to your sleeping quarters and rest?"
"Is it getting late?" the Emperor lifted his head to look outside the window.
Outside was pitch black; it indeed seemed late.
"What time is it now?" the Emperor asked.
Eunuch Wan glanced at the water clock in the palace and said, "It should be around the 7-9 PM period."
"The 7-9 PM period?" the Emperor stood up, and Eunuch Wan immediately bowed to straighten his clothes.
"The 7-9 PM period, it is late. Let's go, we shall proceed to Chengqian Palace."
