Chapter 141: Comparison
The four who had just bowed down were inwardly groaning with dismay. The Fourth Prince? On second thought, wasn’t it obvious? Noble Consort Wen was from the Wen Family, and Wen Zan, as the only nephew of the Wen Family staying in the capital, frequently associated with the Fourth Prince, which seemed perfectly normal.
However, they were completely unprepared for the temperament of the Fourth Prince, who was rumored to be difficult to get along with.
"You may rise—" Zheng Haoyuan’s voice carried a resonant tone. Wen Zan, hearing this, was slightly startled. What’s wrong? Did he seem to be in a bad mood today?
Wen Zan stood up and approached Zheng Haoyuan, his eyes seeking answers. He hadn’t heard of anything upsetting happening today. Hadn’t everything started off well?
Zheng Haoyuan glanced coldly at the four youths standing in a row and snorted inwardly. He had only learned today about these young men’s exceptional talents and how they had ended up in Prince Duan’s Youchun Workshop—apparently Prince Duan was considering them for a cousin.
If he hadn’t accidentally spoken in front of his cousin and preemptively tried to take credit by laying the groundwork, how would he have known the significant roles these strikingly handsome men could play?
Zheng Haoyuan remembered Zheng Nianru describing these four as young talents, as distinctly handsome, and despite their plain clothes, their imposing demeanor could not be concealed. A fire seemed to burn inside him, scorched through his organs.
He had initially wanted to get to know these young talents, to show his face in front of Prince Duan so that Prince Duan wouldn’t dislike him anymore, naturally allowing his cousin to circle in his company.
Seeing Zheng Haoyuan’s displeased expression, Wen Zan dared not ask further and instead led him to the foremost table, just about to sit next to him.
