Guo Ning was in a mess in his mind, so he simply got up, put on his clothes, opened the door and went outside.

A gust of wind blew, and she couldn't help but shivered.

Although it is summer, the night in the mountains is chilly.

Guo Ning wrapped his clothes, walked into the yard, and looked up at the big tree in the yard, where little squirrels faintly passed by.

There was a sound of footsteps.

A lantern approaches.

"Why don't you sleep?"

It is Baoxing's voice.

Guo Ning felt relieved and smiled, "Maybe he was accustomed to the bed, and he couldn't sleep, so he went out for a walk. Why didn't you sleep?"

"I'll go out for a patrol and see if the doors are closed."

"There are many guards outside, are you still worried?"

"I'm used to it." Baoxing held the lantern with a dim voice, "Those guards were brought by His Majesty. When he was outside, there were not so many guards."

Guo Ning was surprised: "So Your Majesty is here too?"

"Your Majesty has always been filial."

"Yes." Guo Ning nodded and sighed, "The Empress Dowager is really lucky."

"That's also good taught by the Queen Mother."

"You are right." Guo Ning smiled and sat on the stone bench. "So, you have worked very hard all these years. In the past, you were a eunuch in charge of the affairs of the palace, and you were in charge of the eunuchs and had many people under your command."

"I don't think it's good." Baoxing said, "I like the days outside, which are ten times better than in the palace."

"Yes, no matter how good the palace is, how can it be as free as outside?" Guo Ning patted the table, "Sit down and talk for a while?"

Baoxing shook his head: "I have to go to bed, I will get up early tomorrow. Mrs. Guo will go to bed earlier."

He walked away with a lantern.

Guo Ning was silent for a moment and said Youyou: "You just hate me so much and don't want to say something more to me?"

Baoxing stopped and said calmly: "Madam Guo may have misunderstood something. Haven't you said something long ago between you and me?"

"Yes, even if you are just ordinary friends, sitting together and talking, is there anything wrong with it?"

"It's okay to speak, it's just late at night."

"You look good, so you won't sleep for a while, right?"

Baoxing thought for a while and said, "Okay then."

He returned and sat on the stool opposite Guo Ning, with a gentle and silent expression.

Guo Ning pinched a fallen leaf and smiled and said, "This mountain is so good."

"It's very good, stay away from the world."

"Brother Ruiquan..."

"Miss Guo should call me Baoxing. The name Qin Ruiquan has no relationship with me. I am not used to it and do not like that name."

"...Okay." Guo Ning smiled, "Actually, why should you stick to a title? If you do this, you will care a lot."

Baoxing didn't say anything.

Guo Ning said: "That man..."

"Which man?"

"The man around the Empress Dowager." Guo Ning wanted to speak, "I always feel familiar when I saw him today. Does he really look very similar to the late emperor?"

"Yes."

"Why does he always wear a mask?"

"Miss Guo, that's the matter of the masters. I am a slave and I will not ask about it. You have asked too much." Baoxing said lightly.

Guo Ning smiled and said, "It would be fine if you don't say it. I just feel puzzled. How good the Empress Dowager and the Last Emperor had, now... Alas, it was once a waste of water."

Baoxing looked calm and had no words.

Guo Ning also fell silent.
