Deng Yuchuan walked slowly to the emperor and Empress Dowager Deng with his walking stick.

Empress Dowager Deng smiled and said, "Brother, please stand up. We're all family. There's no need to be so polite."

The old emperor also said, "Someone, take a seat for Uncle."

Someone immediately brought a chair over and placed it behind Deng Yuchuan so that he could sit and talk.

Deng Yuchuan did not sit down. He was still standing there with his walking stick. His body was a little hunched because of his age. Although the outline of his face was still very firm, his face was already covered in wrinkles of varying depths, and his hair was already gray.
