This year's birthday banquet was different from previous years.
In the previous years, the Emperor would personally host Lin Ming's birthday banquet.
On top of that, the Emperor would prepare for it very much in advance every year.
It could be said that all the civil and military officials would suck up to Lin Ming at this time.
However, during those banquets, Lin Ming acted like an outsider.
The General and his wife were the only ones accompanying Lin Ming on his birthday this year.
There were also a few servants.
"Come and sit," Lin Ming looked at the servants around him and said.
"We wouldn't dare!" The servants around quickly waved their hands and didn't dare to sit with Lin Ming.
One had to know that only the Emperor had the right to sit beside Lin Ming.
"Tell them to come and sit," Lin Ming said to the General.
"Come on then," The servants dare not disobey the General's order.
