Chapter 171 The relationship between the three Zhao Houjing brothers
Zhao Lingmeng looked at Lord Fan's disappearing back, lost in thought. Although for her, having such a person to protect her was definitely safe, it would be disastrous if the emperor could no longer tolerate her.
But there is no way for now, we can only take it one step at a time and think of a solution when the time comes!
Zhao Lingmeng was thinking wildly in her mind while letting Chunshui and Dongyuan help her get off the carriage and go straight to Menglinyuan.
It was already getting late, and Zhao Lingmeng thought everyone would have gone to bed. However, as soon as she entered Menglin Courtyard, Nanny Wu came up to greet her, "Greetings, Your Highness."
Zhao Lingmeng immediately reached out to support Aunt Wu who was about to bow, "No need to be so polite, Aunt. If I come back this late next time, you can go to bed first and don't wait for me."
Zhao Lingmeng felt that Nanny Wu was old and it was time for her to enjoy her retirement and not work so hard.
Nanny Sun knew that His Highness meant well. She had watched His Highness grow up, so her heart couldn't be softer. If His Highness hadn't been so kind, he wouldn't have been bullied by that bastard Sun Tu and his family for so many years.
Her Highness now looked like she had become hard-hearted, but she knew that she had been hurt by a man and didn't want to look for him anymore.
Nanny Sun thought about it, but she smiled and said, "I am old and sleep less. I can't sleep so early. Did your highness have a smooth journey to the palace?"
"It went quite smoothly. Anyway, I wasn't the one who got hurt or suffered the humiliation. Don't worry, Ma'am." Zhao Lingmeng didn't explain the process in detail. It was enough for Ma'am to know the result. She didn't suffer any loss.
"That's good, that's good. The three young masters haven't gone to bed yet! They are waiting for His Highness to come back in the game room."
Zhao Lingmeng frowned when she heard this. It was so late and she still hadn't rested! But she also knew that these three guys must be worried about her.
She thought for a moment and then ordered, "Don't alarm them yet. I'll quickly change my clothes and then go see them. I just have something to say to them."
It wasn't that she didn't want to go straight to the three little guys, but her clothes were too heavy. She had been wearing them all night and was already at her limit. So she had to change first, so she could have the mood to chat leisurely with the three brothers.
"Yes!" Nanny Wu replied softly, and then gave a few instructions to the maid next to her. Then she followed Zhao Lingmeng into the inner room.
What Zhao Lingmeng didn't know was that as soon as she returned, Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houming were about to put down their books and stood up impatiently, ready to go out to greet their mother. It was Zhao Houyang, the little guy who was playing games, who stopped them.
"Mom's clothes are heavy, wait for me to change."
Zhao Houyang used the shortest words to say something that was irresistible.
Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houming, brothers, sat down disappointedly after hearing their brother's words. Zhao Houming reached out and ruffled Zhao Houyang's hair, "I didn't expect that a little guy like you would be so thoughtful!"
"Second brother!" Zhao Houyang's protest was deafening. He hated it most when others messed up his hair. It was very troublesome to take care of, and even his favorite second brother was no exception.
Seeing his brother's fury, Zhao Houming could only speak out to comfort him: "It's okay, really, really."
Zhao Houyang reached out and touched his hair. Seeing that it was really not messy, he gave his second brother a look that said, "Let him go for now."
Zhao Houming heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this. Don't underestimate this guy, he has a bad temper. If he really gets angry, he won't be able to handle it.
He could only mutter quietly: "He may not be a big man, but he has a big temper."
"Second Brother"
"I didn't say anything, just keep doing the puzzle." Zhao Houming was so desperate to survive that he almost collapsed in laughter at seeing his two younger brothers like this.
Zhao Houjing has read a lot in recent years and has understood many things that he once couldn't understand. As a result, his personality has gradually become more cheerful and he feels more secure. He is still a very sunny child.
Seeing this, Zhao Houming could only helplessly call out, "Brother"
"I'm not laughing at you, really, really." Sometimes Zhao Houjing also thought that the relationship between the three brothers was quite interesting. To sum it up, there is always a way out.
He was quite afraid that Zhao Houming would go crazy, and he would not be able to control the situation. And Zhao Houming was also quite afraid that Zhao Houyang would go crazy, and he would not be able to control the situation either.
Seeing this, Zhao Houming could only sigh helplessly, feeling that his life was a bit difficult.
Afterwards, Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houming pretended to read for a while, but they couldn't concentrate. They ran to the door and looked out, wondering why their mother hadn't come yet.
In the end, they resigned themselves to their fate and walked to Zhao Houyang's side. Each of them found a general puzzle that interested them and sat next to Zhao Houyang to put it together.
"Big brother, second brother, can you two move a little closer? This room is so big, why do you have to squeeze me?" Zhao Houyang was a little helpless about his two brothers' childishness. The key point was that these were his biological brothers, and he couldn't really do anything to them.
"Why aren't you in a hurry?" The eldest brother Zhao Houjing asked Zhao Houyang while he kept putting the puzzle together.
"What's there to worry about? I've been with Mom all morning! We even made beggar's chicken together, and it was delicious. And Mom is so smart. If anyone messes with her, they'll definitely suffer."
Zhao Houyang would not tell his two brothers that he and his mother had burnt the chicken. Anyway, Zhao Houyang was now a die-hard fan of Zhao Lingmeng and had great trust in his mother's ability.
“It’s so nice not to have to study!”
Zhao Houjing now wanted to stay home with his mother every day. He now appreciated his mother's kindness and didn't want to go to school anymore. In fact, he thought that if his mother found a good teacher, he would study at home, and he would be willing to do so. Unfortunately, his mother insisted that they have no collective life.
Zhao Houming nodded in agreement. He also wanted to stay at home and play with his mother every day.
"You two study hard! When I pass the imperial examination and you two haven't passed yet, mom will live with me in her old age. That's great." Zhao Houyang nodded as he spoke, as if he was already imagining a better life in the future.
Zhao Houjing couldn't help it anymore and patted Zhao Houyang on the shoulder. "You're dreaming! I'm the eldest son, and mother will definitely follow me in the future."
"Stop arguing, both of you. I am my favorite son. I will definitely want to live with her favorite son in the future." Zhao Houming was very confident about his position in his mother's mind.
"Tsk!" Brothers Zhao Houjing and Zhao Houyang were very disdainful of Zhao Houming's words.
When Zhao Lingmeng changed her clothes and took off her headdress and came over, she heard the conversation between the three brothers outside the door.
