The Worried Empress Dowager

The moon was bright, and the stars were sparse. The palaces and pavilions were silent.

The white bird jumped forward along the battlements of the palace wall. When it encountered people, it stopped and tilted its head to size them up. Its eyes were full of the words: So boring~

Ye Jingtang was wearing a black brocade robe and walking on the palace wall with his hand on his saber. Unknowingly, he had already walked around the Imperial City and met with Shang Jianli and the other chief constables once.

The buildings inside the palace walls were surrounded by flowers and wood. It was difficult to see the scene between the houses, but voices could be heard in the dead of night.

After walking around the Imperial City, Ye Jingtang could confirm that the buildings next to the palace walls were full of palace maids and eunuchs doing chores. There were more people on the south wall of the Imperial City, and there were fewer people on the north wall at the back.
