According to the rules, if the status is noble enough, the eunuch can be arranged to carry the sedan chair, and then send it all the way to the Chaoyang Gate, where the official birthday banquet is held.

However, if the identity is not enough, you can only walk through.

Duan Ling, as a dignified king, of course, didn't need to walk over.

Therefore, after sitting in the sedan chair with Lin Liang, he swayed to Chaoyangmen.

Duan Ling slept twice along the way, and now his spirit was completely recovered.

When he got down from the sedan chair, the whole person was in good spirits, and he specially helped Lin Liang down.

This time I found out that Chaoyangmen was specially arranged today.

I don't know if I was worried about the rain, so I specially prepared a huge shed.

The sheds are all red and embroidered with various gold patterns.

As for a magnificent palace directly in front of Chaoyangmen, there are already the emperor, the queen mother, and several noble concubines and concubines, everyone is there, they are all quite leisurely and complacent.

So, after Duan Ling took Lin Liang's hand, he walked towards the front place.

After all, as the emperor's younger brother and the biological son of the current Concubine Li, his identity is different, so Lin Liang followed him.

Now that the people have reached a small half, after sitting down, Concubine Li immediately cast a kind gaze, even the Queen Mother.

Lin Liang also smiled, so he sat very close to the emperor and empress.

However, as soon as she sat down, Lin Liang found that a gaze that seemed to be quite unhappy had always fallen on her.

Sure enough, as soon as the two of them sat down, a little eunuch had already sent some melons and fruits, but none of them could fill their stomachs.

Sensing that the line of sight was almost condensed into a substance, almost poking countless holes in her body, Lin Liang gently pulled Duan Ling's sleeve, and after that, he communicated with him with his lips.

"Am I offending the queen at some point? Why did she keep staring at me like that? ”

"Ignore her, she usually gets along with the emperor strangely, and she probably has a bit of a problem with her brain. Thirsty or not? Or, I'll ask the little eunuch to prepare something for you to drink? Duan Ling asked while complaining.

"No, if you drink too much water, you'll have to run to the toilet at that time, it's too troublesome."

Lin Liang now felt that it would be good to be able to stabilize himself sitting honestly here, after all, the crown was quite heavy.

lest you embarrass Duan Ling and Concubine Li when you get it.

So, when someone came to greet them, they just smiled reservedly and maintained their dignified and decent side.

Perhaps, it was because of the emperor's order that the official time for the start of the worship of heaven was stipulated.

Soon after they were seated, they were almost there.

Moreover, there is a small sign in front of them.

After talking about who was doing at each table, everything was in order.

I only saw countless palace maids dressed neatly serving in it, leading all the noble ones to their places and sit down.

When the people had already arrived, at this moment, a rather strong voice suddenly came from Lin Liang's ears.

When he turned his head curiously to look, he found that on both sides of the high white jade steps, there were already many craftsmen playing music.

I couldn't help but bite my ear with Duan Ling curiously: "What is this?" I see how it's so long, can they catch it? ”

"This is a very long kind of suona, which comes from outside the plug, of course ordinary people can't, but these are all through strict training, and they can hold on for a while." Duan Ling explained.

"That's right," it was the Queen Mother's birthday, and it was the first time Duan Yuan had presided over such a serious birthday ceremony since he ascended the throne, so he had been preparing almost many months ago.

Now, everything is in order.

After this auspicious music is played, the worship to the heavens begins.

The emperor and empress naturally accompanied the queen mother, and both of them looked quite respectful.

Deliberately walked to the front of the palace, and after that, the three of them held a very high incense in their hands, and after deliberately kneeling down to worship heaven and earth, they reinserted the incense into the incense burner.

After all the complicated procedures were finished, Lin Liang was already so sleepy that he was about to yawn.

But everyone was standing, and she was embarrassed, so her eyes were red.

Finally, the emperor stood still in front of him, and after saying some words of congratulations and blessings to the queen mother, when he beckoned everyone to sit down, Lin Liang obviously heard that the people sitting nearby breathed a long sigh of relief.

Then, he carefully sat down in his position.

Fortunately, the Queen Mother specially discussed it with the emperor this time.

It is said that every time a birthday is held, it takes a lot of time just to give gifts.

Thinking that it is rare for everyone to get together, there is no need to make such trouble.

If you have that time, you might as well let everyone take a break and get ready, some talent shows or something.

Those young men and women of the right age can also give a marriage.

When the emperor heard this, he immediately felt quite satisfied, besides, there was still a matter on Duan Yu's side that had not been decided, so he agreed to the queen mother.

As for the part of offering gifts, it was changed to the palace maids and eunuchs holding trays in their hands.

Then, after registering and seeing which family had given what gifts, he personally sent them to the storeroom.

Lin Liang felt that this matter was quite good, so after waiting for the food to be served, he asked Duan Ling while eating.

"What do you have for the queen mother? I've been asking you before, but you won't tell me. ”

The two are husband and wife, and they sit in a different position than others.

The two of them occupied a special table, and generally only the prince and Liang Guogong would have such qualifications.

So, after Duan Ling raised his glass and toasted a glass of wine with the general opposite, he smiled and said, "Of course the queen mother likes it."

"What does the queen mother like? Don't sell it to me, tell me about it. Otherwise, if the queen mother asks me to go up and perform some kind of talent or something, I say I won't, then I'll shake you out. Lin Liang began to play tricks.

Duan Ling was really helpless, but with so many people watching, she couldn't rub her hair, or pinch her nose or something like before, so as not to spoil her makeup, so she could only answer.

"It's a painting of the early morning layman that the queen mother likes. It was a very well-known painter in the previous dynasty, but then he traveled all over the world, and I don't know if he is still alive. I also got a painting by chance a few years ago, and I sent it to my mother. ”

"Is that so? What is the picture on the painting? While eating, Lin Liang chatted with Duan Ling as if no one was around.
