"Mother, will you make osmanthus cake for Yaya to eat?" Su Ya stayed in her embrace, tilting up her little face, and asked expectantly.
The Empress looked down at her and gently rubbed her head as she said,
"Yaya, Mother isn't feeling well today, how about next time? I'll make it for you another time when there's a chance."
"Is Mother sick?" Su Ya immediately became worried.
"No, I just don't have much energy, Yaya need not worry, Mother has already seen the Imperial Physician."
"Oh. Mother must stay healthy, Yaya can go without the osmanthus cake, as long as Mother isn't sick, that's enough."
"What a good child." The Empress smiled reassuringly, her expression as if she were truly looking at her own daughter.
Su Yan couldn't help but be a bit perplexed.
The Empress, perhaps, was still the same as before…
It was probably because she didn't understand her that she had guessed wrongly.
She hadn't seen Su Ya, probably for a reason...
