After the reminiscence ended, Zheng Rang returned to his seat, still feeling the gaze of many ministers upon him.
He knew that these ministers were paying attention to him not because of himself, but because he was the son of Zheng Xilin. Although his father hadn't said anything before he came to the capital, from what had just happened, he had figured out one thing: his father was even more "highly respected" than he had imagined.
It seemed that he wouldn't have a peaceful time in the coming days.
He came to the capital to realize his ambitions, not to seek power. He would not support any Prince; he just wanted to be a loyal minister and do his job well.
Alas, the people of the Crown Prince or Prince Dai might not "let" him off so easily. They would try every possible means, perhaps even by unscrupulous methods, to win him over. In the future, he must be cautious and must not fall into their traps.
He would have to stay close to his uncle in the future, which might be safer.
