Lady Chang smiled and, with the support of a maid, sat down.
The Empress eyed Lady Chang's foot, which had been swollen quite high when she saw it a few days ago; it looked so painful even to her.
"Lanlan, if you're injured, you should rest well and recover; there's no need to come to see me," she said.
Lady Chang said gently, "The one I hold dearest in the palace is Auntie; seeing Auntie is what gives me peace of mind."
Hearing her words, Xiao Jinyu couldn't help but retort, "Lady Chang, your statement is incorrect. The person who should be the closest to you is my brother."
Lady Chang was taken aback.
Xiao Jinyu turned to look at the Empress, "Mother, do you think what I said is right?"
The Empress, seeing her son's earnest expression, smiled helplessly, "Right, right, husband and wife are as one; indeed, closer than me."
