Great Tang: Your Majesty, I Have a Confession to Make. I'm Your Nephew

In the eighth year of the Zhenguan era, Li Shimin falls ill and is confined to his dragon bed, plagued by nightmares of his elder brother Li Jiancheng, who died at Xuanwu Gate.

His illness is rooted in his heart, and the imperial physicians are powerless to help. The court can only issue an imperial proclamation seeking gifted and unusual people from among the common folk.

A young man answers the call and enters the palace to counsel Li Shimin. "Your Majesty, could you find a way to make amends to your brother?"

"I have posthumously honored him as the Hidden Crown Prince."

The young man scoffs inwardly: What a shameless man.

Li Shimin is somewhat embarrassed. "My brother still has a surviving bloodline. His son, Li Chengdao, escaped back then. I didn't kill him. I'll search the whole world to find my nephew and make things right!"

The young man asks, "How far are you willing to go?"

"I will spare no effort..."

"No need to look!"

The young man can practically see a life of wealth and splendor ahead. "Your Majesty, I'll come clean. I'm your nephew, Li Chengdao."
