37 She Is Tired

The darkness of night doesn't seem to affect the Imperial Palace as the whole Palace was lit with lanterns. Inside the Xinhe Palace's study room, Eunuch Zhang entered only to see that The Second Prince, Zhao Zhang Wei was already wearing his robe instead of reading any book. However, he did show that surprise on his face. 

He stepped forward and said.

"May I, Your Highness ?"

Zhao Zhang Wei raised his hand and stood waiting for Eunuch Zhang to fix his robes.

A few minutes later, the pair of Master-servant finally stepped out of the study and walked towards the Lantai courtyard.

The Lantai courtyard was lit with lanterns. Zhao Zhang Wei could not help but raise his head look at the gates of the courtyard.

Few maids were standing outside the courtyard and they seemed to be there to welcome him. He frowned. In the past, she herself used to stand outside the courtyard at this time to welcome him, whenever he visited Lantai Courtyard.
