The greatest emperor of all time? Even in modern times, he still has to work!

Li Chengqian in front of him had his neck stiff, was unruly, and unwilling to resent.

Li Shimin couldn't believe it: "Li Chengqian! You!"

"Your Majesty, you asked me why I rebelled. Even in the future, I will not regret it now, nor will I doubt it. I know that there will always be such a day."

"My foot disease has already shown signs of weakness. Although I can pretend to be a normal person, you and my mother both know that there is something wrong with my feet. In the seventh year of Zhenguan, I will fall seriously ill and my foot disease will become untraceable, and I will become a lame prince!"

Li Chengqian knew his own ending. He was resentful, but everything was so reasonable.

Empress Changsun hugged Li Chengqian, tears streaming down her face: "Chengqian..."

"Your Majesty, you favor Li Tai. Do you know what your favoritism has brought me? Li Tai is disrespectful to his elder brother in private and has repeatedly provoked me, but in front of you, he acts like a good brother and a good son, enjoying your favor."

"In the future, you let him live in the Wude Hall! You fostered his ambitions. You want to make the King of Wei the crown prince. You want him to be like the former Li Shimin, but I don't want to be like the former Li Jiancheng! What's wrong with me rebelling?"

"When you rebelled at Xuanwu Gate, didn't you also feel that you were not wrong and that it was destiny?!!!"

"You think that Grandfather is biased, but aren't you biased as well?"

"You you!!!!" Li Shimin's hands were shaking as he pointed at Li Chengqian. Empress Zhangsun held Li Chengqian in her arms and looked at Li Shimin with pleading eyes: "Erlang..."

Just a look and a name helped Li Shimin calm down.

"Your Majesty, I don't need to be the crown prince anymore. I am working and setting up a stall in the afterlife. I have a salary, and I can treat respiratory diseases in the afterlife. I will try my best to cure my mother. In the afterlife, there will be grain yields of 100 dan per mu, cars that can run without the need for oxen and horses, indestructible cement, and so on. I will try my best to bring them back. These are what I should do as the crown prince for a few years. I only hope that Your Majesty will give me a fiefdom and let me leave Chang'an early." Li Chengqian's words meant to retreat in order to advance. Since he knew the ending, of course he wanted to be the emperor, and the best emperor.

What Wu Zetian, what Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, what An Lushan, who wanted to destroy the Tang Dynasty?

He wanted the Tang Dynasty to last forever in his hands.

"Are you serious? Can Guanyinbi's disease be cured? And the grain yield per mu can reach several hundred stones?" Li Shimin was shocked too many times tonight.

"Yes." A bitter feeling flashed through Li Chengqian's heart. His father didn't seem to care about what he said next, nor did he care where he was going.

Empress Changsun was a thoughtful woman and could tell what Li Chengqian was thinking. She then glared at Li Shimin.

Look at your son!

Li Shimin coughed lightly and said, "Cheng Qian, you are the crown prince and you will always be the crown prince. Now that we know what will happen next, I will definitely not repeat the same mistake. Don't worry, I will restrain myself as for Qingque. He will not live in the Wude Hall and will not compete with you for it. I will punish him."

"Father, I hope you can do it, otherwise I will still rebel." Li Chengqian is no longer shy about this.

Li Shimin was choked to the point of almost being unable to breathe. Could you please stop talking about rebellion?

Is this glorious?

"Chengqian~" Empress Changsun gently pulled Li Chengqian up.

"Mother, don't worry, I will try my best. Your disease can be cured in the future. You must stay with Chengqian for a long time. I will also try my best to save Sizi and Lizhi." Li Chengqian solemnly promised.

"Cheng Qian, you don't have to work so hard. Mother has lived a long life and she should be content." Empress Changsun was very open-minded.

"No, mother, I hope you live a long life." As for father, forget it.

Li Shimin:...

"Ahem, well, I'm a little curious about what happens in the future. I'm also curious, if Chengqian was demoted to a commoner, then who would be the emperor? Qingque?" To be honest, Li Shimin doted on Qingque only because the child was lovable and chubby, but not because Qingque had any abilities better than Chengqian. He would not hand over the throne to Qingque.

"It's not Qingque, it's Zhinu." Li Chengqian's voice was light.

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin felt that it was very likely. Chengqian, Qingque and Zhinu were Guanyinbi's sons and the legitimate sons. If Chengqian was gone and Qingque was unable to take on the responsibility, then Zhinu would be the best choice.

"What about future generations..." Li Shimin continued to ask tentatively.

"This is what the future holds..."

Li Chengqian recounted everything he had seen and heard in later generations, and also recounted the history of the Tang Dynasty that he had seen. His mouth was dry from talking, and he drank a pot of tea before he recovered.

"I didn't expect the future to be so magical. Cheng Qian, you must work hard. The Tang Dynasty will depend on you in the future." Li Shimin sighed again: "The Tang Dynasty was so glorious, but it will also fall. That Wu Meiniang, Yang Guifei is really a disaster!"

Li Chengqian curled his lips when he heard that. Of course he would work hard, as he also had to rely on his salary to buy medicine for his mother.

"Wu Zetian also had outstanding political achievements, and the fall of the Tang Dynasty was not caused by Yang Guifei alone."

Empress Changsun nodded in agreement: "Only incompetent men will blame everything on women."

Li Shimin was choked again when he heard this, and Empress Changsun and Li Chengqian looked at him with unkind eyes.

"Well, I just feel emotional. Don't take it seriously."

The Emperor Changsun glanced at Li Shimin calmly and said, "Well, Cheng Qian should go back and have a rest. You have to get up early tomorrow to work in the future. It will be very tiring."

Li Chengqian nodded when he heard this, and did not pay his respects to Li Shimin. Instead, he paid his respects to Empress Changsun and took Xiao Sizi away with him.

Seeing Li Chengqian being so rude to him, Li Shimin did not dare to say anything, because Empress Zhangsun looked cold, glanced at Li Shimin, and bowed perfunctorily: "Your Majesty, go back and rest early!"

Over the years, Empress Changsun's knowledge and dignity, as well as the imperial power, did not allow her to be angry with Li Shimin, but how could she feel good when she heard about the fate of her own children?

"Guanyin maid, I," Li Shimin didn't know what to say. From what Cheng Qian said, he did make the same mistake as his father, letting his children fight among themselves.

"Your Majesty, you are a wise ruler, an excellent emperor, and the greatest emperor of all time, but it is undeniable that you are not a good father, at least not to Cheng Qian." Empress Changsun felt sorry for her child.

"Guanyin maid, I..."

"Your Majesty, please let me be alone for a while."

"Okay, Guanyin, I will protect Cheng Qian."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

That night, it was a silent night, and some people tossed and turned in bed.
