Chapter 403 Coincidence?
Master Meng sighed: "You and King Xiao haven't seen each other before, it's just that you didn't want to participate in this kind of entertainment, but now it's different, you are now a Beijing official, King Xiao has just named a prince, and there are no kings in the court. People can be compared with him, he is very likely to be ranked 95 in the future, and it is a good time for you to meet him at this time."
In the past, he deliberately prevented Meng Nan from appearing in front of the princes too early, just for fear of being on the wrong team and affecting the future of Meng Nan and the Meng family.
Now that King Xiao is powerful, no one can surpass him, so naturally he has no scruples.
Meng Nan wanted to refuse, but he thought that he had just rejected a marriage they were very optimistic about. If he refused this entertainment at this time, the consequences would be bad.
He finally responded: "Okay!"
Master Meng nodded with satisfaction: "Get up, go back and prepare well. King Xiao is a rather elegant character. He likes to sing poetry against others. People with the same preferences will naturally attract his attention."
Meng Nan responded lightly, but he didn't take it seriously. He would not disguise himself as a well-rounded poker in order to please a man he had never met.
The next day, the diners live.
King Xiao held a banquet, and it was not only the Meng family who hosted the banquet. He invited all the powerful and powerful families in the capital, as well as several courtiers who could speak to the court.
In the largest private room with diners, there are three tables side by side, and delicious food is placed on the table. The guests have already arrived, but Zuodong's main house has not yet arrived.
Everyone greeted each other with kindness and smiles on their faces, but under the skin, they had their own thoughts and plans.
"King Xiao is here!" The singing came into the private room, and everyone hurriedly stood up to greet him.
Meng Nan walked with the crowd, followed behind his father, and walked to the door.
The Meng family is very powerful in Kyoto, and there are very few people who can be compared with Meng You. This leading position is naturally the Meng family.
The tall figure stepped into the private room, and before Meng Nan had time to see the appearance of King Xiao, the audience bowed and said salute, and had to do it.
"Don't be too polite, take a seat!"
Xiao Wang's voice was very bright, revealing a coldness.
Meng Nan raised his eyes to look at the back of King Xiao, who had stepped to the throne, tall and strong.
Xiao Wang stepped in front of the main seat, turned and sat in the chair, Meng Nan finally saw that face, that face, handsome and young, surprised him.
The Xiao Wang in front of him actually looks quite similar to Hu Feng. The eyebrows, eyes and nose and lips don't look very similar.
How can this happen? Is there such a coincidence in the world?
No, no, there are no such coincidences in this world.
Although Hu Feng was in Huangtuo Village and called Hu Changlin his father, he was clearly incompatible with that Huangtuo Village, and he and Hu Changlin had no similarities at all.
Hu Feng's bearing, at some point, seemed even more noble than the Xiao Wang in front of him.
A meal can be long or short, but for Meng Nan, every breath is a torment, and he can't wait to leave, trying to figure out the doubts in his heart.
He has never cared about the affairs of the DPRK, never cared, and would not take it to heart, but some things, after hearing about them, are hard to forget.
For example, the disappearance of the King of Jin three years ago was a major event that shocked the court and the public. The emperor was furious and ordered a thorough investigation. A cousin of the Meng family branch experienced the incident and was convicted of it.
