"You should settle down early, Your Highness. You need to rise early tomorrow to pay respects. You've been tossing around for most of the night, I'm afraid you'll be very tired tomorrow."
Who wouldn't agree?
One would think attending to the Emperor at night would be exhausting, but not attending to him is just as tiring.
The thought of being subjected to backhanded comments the next day irritated her greatly.
"Extinguish the lights."
"Yes. Your Highness, sleep well. I shall keep watch outside."
After Chunqi said this, the goat-horn palace lamps in the sleeping chamber were extinguished, leaving only one in the outer room. Watching the faint flickering light, Lin Wanyi gradually felt drowsy.
Though she slept comfortably, at this moment, the lamps in Qian'an Hall were reignited.
Hearing movement inside, Dong Yuzhong immediately pushed the door open and entered.
Indeed, the Emperor, who had been sound asleep, was already sitting up, rotating his neck from side to side.
