Chapter 280 Zhao Lingmeng still accepted Zhao Zhimo's vaccination
Zhao Anping paused for a moment, then strode in. He made a simple salute:
"Your Highness, the Princess!"
"Brother, get up! What brings you here again?" Although Zhao Lingmeng was harsh in her words, she gestured to Zhao Anping to sit down with her hands.
Zhao Anping wasn't one to be pretentious, so he immediately sat down opposite Zhao Lingmeng and said, "You know, I, Big Brother, never come to your house unless I have something to ask."
Zhao Lingmeng was choked and could only roll her eyes speechlessly, "Your understanding of yourself is quite accurate."
Zhao Anping didn't take Zhao Lingmeng's criticism to heart. After all, his younger sister wouldn't hurt him. Instead, he asked, "Excuse me, Princess, can I have some? It smells so good."
"Eat, eat! Be careful or I'll poison you!" Zhao Lingmeng felt like she had no way to deal with this kind of person. She felt like she shouldn't even arrange lunch for him, that he should come hungry and leave hungry.
When Zhao Anping heard that he could eat, he immediately picked up his chopsticks. He didn't think he was afraid of being poisoned or anything like that!
Seeing this, Zhao Lingmeng picked up her chopsticks and picked out what she liked to eat. She had no intention of waiting for Zhao Houyang. Anyway, the big kitchen should be reserved for Zhao Houyang.
"Brother, you should pay attention to your image. You look like a starving ghost. How can a mansion of your size not have food?"
"You don't understand! If I tell you what I like to eat in the mansion, then for a long time I'll eat that everywhere I go. Who can resist that? It turns out that what the book says is right, the hardest thing to endure is the favor of a beautiful woman."
Zhao Anping complained without any sense of distance, as if the two siblings had never quarreled before.
Zhao Lingmeng was speechless and could only pick out the meat that Zhao Anping valued, and she wanted to be unhappy herself and not let others be happy.
Only when both of them were almost full did the brother and sister slow down their eating.
"Tell me! What do you want from me again?" Zhao Lingmeng asked while slowly picking up the remaining chicken from the pot.
Zhao Anping said bluntly, "I'm planning to vaccinate Zhimo against smallpox, and I'd like you to help me find a royal physician to take care of him for a few days."
"Oh? With the status of Marquis Wu'an, he can't hire an imperial physician?"
Zhao Lingmeng didn't want to get involved in this matter, in case something happened and she couldn't escape the clutches, but Zhimo was a very sensible child, which made her feel distressed.
"This isn't the most crucial time. I'm worried about falling into someone else's trap. Mo'er is my eldest son, and I don't want anything to happen. Besides, the situation in my mansion is quite complicated right now, and there are many people with selfish motives."
After Zhao Anping finished speaking, he looked at his younger sister expectantly. He felt that his younger sister would make the decision, and then he could let his second brother rub against her.
But Zhao Anping has eight hundred thoughts, and Zhao Lingmeng has some too. "Okay, send Mo'er to my house tomorrow, and you don't have to worry about anything else."
Zhao Lingmeng agreed because Zhimo was indeed sensible, and she didn't want to see this good boy get into trouble. So, she followed her instincts and took on this thankless task, but she also understood her brother's other intentions.
As for Jin's children, she took care of the eldest one, which showed her kindness. As for the second one, it was none of her business. After all, it was not her child, and she could not expect everything from her!
"Ah!" Zhao Anping was surprised at how readily his younger sister agreed, and also surprised at her cleverness. He thought to himself that Jin Shi was really irresponsible and that the second son had really been implicated by her. The younger sister clearly didn't want to care about the second son, Zhao Zhifu.
"Little sister, Fu'er is old enough to be vaccinated against smallpox. Do you think we can come together? Don't worry, if you have any requests, just let me know."
Zhao Lingmeng would not compromise because of Zhao Anping's shamelessness: "It's none of my business. I'm not his parent, and I don't need your money! But I manage Mo, and you're his father, so you still have to pay him what he deserves. I'll give you the list later."
"Can I just consider it as one I owe you?" Zhao Anping could only pray for the second child again. After all, he had sent this child to the academy, and he was very sensible now. He was reluctant to let anything happen to him.
Zhao Lingmeng shook his head firmly. "Brother, you should take care of your own affairs. Whatever happens, it's your fault and has nothing to do with me. I only care about Zhimo because he grew up in my house. I'm kind and he's sensible, that's all. I'm not trying to give you any face."
Zhao Anping was silent for a moment, then he knew that his younger sister really wouldn't care anymore. "I'll send Mo'er over tomorrow."
"Yeah!" Zhao Lingmeng responded, but didn't want to take the initiative to find any other topics.
Zhao Anping saw that the matter had been settled, so he knew that there was no point in saying more, so he changed the subject, "How is your relationship with the eldest prince now?"
"Not bad! His son is my apprentice." Zhao Lingmeng knew what Zhao Anping meant by asking this, but she really had no intention of getting involved in these matters. As long as it wasn't the Third Prince, it didn't matter to her who it was. She saw that the Emperor didn't consider the Third Prince, so she became even more indifferent.
"Yun'er finally has a grandson."
"It's none of my business! Big brother, if you want to help, then help, but don't ask me, I won't get involved in this. Especially the Third Prince, I just hope he gets into trouble. And even if my family is confiscated and my clan is exterminated, I won't be implicated. After all, I'm a married woman. My son's Zhao is not the same Zhao as the one in your mansion."
Zhao Lingmeng was speechless. A man who values bloodline so much must have some kind of mental disorder. Didn't he see that his father ran away out of fear of getting involved in these things?
Zhao Anping originally didn't want to get involved in this, and wanted to chat with Zhao Lingmeng at this time, but she exploded at once: "I'm not discussing this with you! I just said this, and you have such a bad temper..."
"Anyway, I'm the eldest princess and I'm comfortable as hell. I won't take sides. Even if I wanted to, it wouldn't be with the Third Prince. If I were to side with someone who has a grudge against me, what's wrong with me?"
When Zhao Anping heard his younger sister say this, he knew it was true. He could only rub his nose in frustration. In his heart, he cursed Zhao Shuiyun and those two idiots. Why did they offend Zhao Lingmeng for no reason? And why did they offend her completely? Now he felt that the Third Prince had been kicked out.
After all, he knew that my younger sister was special, so when the emperor chose the next successor, he would definitely not choose someone who had a grudge against my younger sister. Unless the emperor wanted to cause internal strife in Jing State. The current situation in Jing State could not withstand such a big turmoil.
But seeing his younger sister's attitude, he thought to himself that the eldest prince's chances should be quite good, if he performed normally and didn't make any stupid mistakes. But he was just thinking about it, he didn't want to participate in such a deadly thing. Although in Zhimo's generation, if there were no great achievements, the succession to the title would be demoted.
But Zhimo was well-educated by his father and younger sister, and he had high hopes for his son. Therefore, he would not get involved in such a deadly matter.
