Chapter Nine Hundred and Fifty Seven Daming Palace Dinner

Pass through the Danfeng Gate, stroll along the royal road, climb up the steps, climb up the Hanyuan Hall, and look back to see the whole city.

Thousands of lights are on, and Chang'an is prosperous at night like a dream.

On both sides of the imperial avenue of the Hanyuan Hall stood Tang officials, with civil officials on the left and military officials on the right. There were hundreds of people extending from the entrance of the hall to the square platform where the dragon chairs were placed, and the scene was quite spectacular.

The emperor is in the middle, sitting on a dragon chair, wearing a dragon robe and a crown, a real big guy in formal attire.

When Ning Tao walked into the gate of Hanyuan Palace with the hand of Nanmen Xunxian, all the civil and military officials sang "O" to the eunuch on duty, and bowed in unison. Even Tang Xuanzong got up from the dragon chair and walked down, stood at the end of the imperial path and bowed deeply to Ning Tao and Nanmen Xunxian.

Fortunately, he didn't kneel down.

Otherwise the scene will be very embarrassing.

After all, this is the Tang Dynasty, and the man in formal attire is also Tang Xuanzong, a famous wise king in Chinese history.

Chinese people have a complex of worshiping their ancestors, and this well-dressed tycoon probably has more fans than any traffic star. Although Ning Tao is not a fan, he respects this eternal emperor from the bottom of his heart. Therefore, when Tang Xuanzong bowed to him, he immediately bowed and bowed back.

Nanmen Xunxian stood beside Ning Tao and performed a Wanfu salute.

Tang Xuanzong said politely: "My lord, please take your seat."

Ning Tao said politely, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Then he took Nanmen Xunxian's hand to the Fangtai.

There are two table tables on the square platform, one belongs to Tang Xuanzong, and the other belongs to Ning Tao. The two table tables are placed in parallel, regardless of height. This is already the highest level of courtesy. Given the status of the Tang Dynasty in the world in this historical period, I am afraid that even the monarch of the Arab Empire at the same time came here, and he could only settle a case under the square platform. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty was on an equal footing.

Everyone's eyes were on Ning Tao and Nanmen Xunxian, especially Nanmen Xunxian, all of them looked a bit ugly, and several old officials were hesitant to speak.

In ancient times, women were not allowed to eat at the same table as men. Even if it is a couple, children cannot eat at the same table before the age of seven, let alone with Tang Xuanzong?

The few old ministers who were hesitant to speak obviously wanted to remind Ning Tao not to bring Nanmen Xunxian up to sit with Tang Zixian, but they were also in awe of the status of the Great Immortal, for fear of offending the Great Immortal. After all, Wu Yue's army of millions did not go far. In case of killing the carbine, the crisis in Chang'an will have to be resolved with the help of the Great Immortal.

Tang Xuanzong was also a little embarrassed, but he held back and didn't say it.

Ning Tao felt the change in the atmosphere in Kaiyuan Hall, he said with a smile: "Let me introduce to you, this is my lady, I am one body with my lady, I don't talk about secular etiquette with her, we always eat at the same table, Sleeping in the same bed, very affectionate, don't want to be separated for a moment, please forgive me."

No one said anything.

Ning Tao doesn't even want to eat anymore, these pedantic fools.

But he understands these people, these ancient people regard rules and etiquette as more important than life, how can he make these change their deep-rooted concepts and customs with a simple and casual sentence?

"Ning Lang, I'm going to the harem to see Concubine Mei. The purpose of my coming here tonight is also to say goodbye to her." Nanmen Xunxian said in Ning Tao's ear.

Ning Tao said: "Okay then, you go to Concubine Mei first, and I'll come and find you later."

Nanmen Xunxian nodded his head, gave another blessing to Tang Xuanzong, and left alone.

Tang Xuanzong said: "Please take your seat, Great Immortal."

Ning Tao said politely again: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

He takes his seat.

The eunuch on duty yelled: "Banquet—"

The civil and military officials stepped back and knelt behind the tables placed on both sides of the royal road.
