The youthful rivalry between them was of no consequence to Prime Minister Wang, who casually remarked, "Zheng Chen is the Empress Dowager's direct nephew, likely influenced by her, hence some hostility towards you."
The Zheng Family and Wang Family were in opposition at court, how could Zheng Chen and Wang Jin possibly become close friends?
Wang Jin, being perceptive and sensitive, felt something was amiss but couldn't quite articulate it, so he set it aside and curiously inquired about the Nanyang County Princess impeaching Zuo Zhen in her memorial to the throne.
Prime Minister Wang's expression cooled slightly as he glanced at his naïve young son: "You even know about this matter?"
Wang Jin nodded, "After court, the Crown Prince got the news, and as his reading companions, we naturally knew too."
