Opening a Tavern in Great Tang, with Empress Zhangsun as a Regular

A mix-up sixteen years ago left the legitimate heir of the Tang Dynasty living among commoners. Now known as Li Chen, he runs the Forget Worries Tavern. Though born with a chronic respiratory illness, he possesses wisdom and talent beyond his years. His line, “Through wind and rain, I’ll live my life as I please,” captivates the emperor; a bowl of braised pork overturns worldly prejudice. Beneath the serenity in his eyes lies the bearing of an emperor, bound by blood to Li Shimin.
