Zheng Zuoyang stood up in a hurry and bowed deeply to Duan Zeng: "This junior has seen Uncle Duan and saluted Uncle Duan."
"My good nephew is exempt from the courtesy," Duan Zeng hurriedly went over to help Zheng Zuoyang up, and asked Zheng Zuoyang with a smile, "I wonder where my good nephew works now?"
He had really never heard of such a number one person in the capital, but Zheng Zuoyang was obviously not an ordinary person, so Duan Zeng thought that he was too old to recognize him, so he asked such a question.
Zheng Zuoyang said with some embarrassment: "I'm afraid Uncle Duan will make fun of me. I don't have an official position now. I'm just an idler."
"It shouldn't be," Duan Zeng was startled, then turned to look at Fang Zeduan, "Brother Fang, why didn't you make arrangements for your nephew? It's really a waste of your nephew's good qualifications."
"He has an arrogant temperament and doesn't like my arrangements." Fang Zeduan looked at Zheng Zuoyang with a look of disgust and concealed joy, and said to Duan Zeng, "He wants to join the imperial court next year and earn a future on his own. I What else can be done?”
"My good nephew is a proud man, and he is really a role model for all the children. Now he is a son of the capital," Duan Zeng looked disgusted and shook his head, "It's okay not to say anything."
"Brother Duan tasted this capped stone flower, which is my favorite." Fang Ze changed the topic, sipped his tea, and frowned, "It is not difficult for Prince Hui to request that Prince Ning be made the crown prince. , but I’m afraid that Prince Hui won’t want to.”
Duan Zeng put down the tea leaves in his hand and nodded: "Prince Huai is indeed a tough nut to crack. He has coveted the throne for a long time. He has done so many tricks over the years, secretly and openly, just for the sake of that big position, isn't it? Although he is a successful king and a defeated enemy, according to his temperament, how can he be willing to help Prince Ning? "
Zheng Zuoyang took a sip of tea and sneered: "Prince Huai is not monolithic. As long as you can catch him within seven inches, he will naturally not be disobedient."
Duan Zeng and Fang Zeduan glanced at each other, and then they both laughed silently. They didn't say anything at the moment and lowered their heads to sip tea.

That night.
Prince Ning's Mansion.
study.
"Where's Du Heng? Why haven't you seen anyone else all day?" Mu Nanzhi asked Lu Zhishan casually while pouring tea. He paused and said, "It's not today. He seems to be rarely seen these days. Why? Seems busier than you?"
"Do you still need to ask? I must be going to Princess Jing'an's Mansion," Lu Zhishan said with a smile while approving the papers, "After all, I haven't married Princess Jing'an yet, so the boy is not at ease. He has to go to Princess Jing'an every day. You’re being nice and trying to please me in front of me.”
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, my cousin seems to be very experienced," Mu Nanzhi handed over a cup of lotus tea and glanced at the man, "Why didn't I see you running towards my house every day?"
Lu Zhishan took the tea cup and laughed "hehe" twice. He closed the tea lid and looked at the grunting child with a dissatisfied look on his face with a smile: "Didn't my daughter always run to my house back then? Where? Do you need me to run again?"
"Bah! You have the nerve to say it, you are really thick-skinned, Lu Zhishan, do you want to be shameless?" Mu Nanzhi spat with a red face.
"Come here." Lu Zhishan put the tea bowl on the table and patted his thigh towards Mu Nanzhi.
"Hmph," Mu Nanzhi looked unhappy, but still walked over, sat on the man's lap, hugged the man's neck, and glared at the man, "What? Now you want to make up for it?"
