Stories About Transmigrating to the Tang Dynasty Always Make Li Shimin Seem Too Weak

Historically, Li Shimin was a general whose military achievements were so great there was no higher honor left to bestow on him. As a ruler, he had top marks in politics. He did everything from emperor to general and minister, a true all-rounder. I want stories where Li Shimin gets to shine even more.
