Four emperors hailed through the ages, yet not one could produce a crown prince who measured up? Is the eldest son of a great emperor doomed from birth by a curse?
Either he dies before his father, or his father despises him as “nothing like me”?
Transmigrated into Li Chengqian, Crown Prince of the Tang dynasty, he finds the timeline all wrong. Lame, deposed, demoted to commoner, placed under house arrest...
His enemies: the protagonist of an entire age, the strongest being of the seventh century, backed by a host of top civil officials and military generals. The empire is already at its zenith, with a million-strong army...
A disastrous start from the very beginning.
If miracles are impossible, then let a divine wonder descend!
“Father, haven’t you always dreamed of having the ultimate crown prince? Well, here he is!”
Li Shimin: “I wanted the ultimate crown prince, not a disloyal, unfilial rebel prince, a demon king of a prince!”
The plot is full of surprises and intrigue, making it very engaging to watch. How did it slowly turn into a family drama? I want to watch a battle for supremacy, not negotiations, belittling the other side, or fathers and sons hurling insults at each other. What's the point of this? It feels like it's slowly shifting from a male-oriented genre to a female-oriented one.
The theme is novel, and the perspective is completely different 😂 After being used to seeing the invincible Erfeng, it's nice to see Xiaofeng suffer once in a while, hahaha.
A good start. The Tang Dynasty lasted only 26 years, and the Sui Dynasty 38 years. If Li Shimin is defeated once, rumors can be spread that Li Shimin is the second Yang Guang. If defeated twice, Li Shimin will lose the people's support, and he will be the second Yang Guang without any rumors. If defeated three times, Li Shimin will be the second Yang Guang.
Since you've written it this way, author, how about considering writing a side story after the main story is finished? It could be set during the reign of Li Yuan, before Li Shimin usurped the throne, when a celestial screen appeared. Li Chengqian, who had already ruled the world, traveled back in time and was shown on the screen as the future emperor of all time.
This is the first time I've seen someone with such strong practical skills, not some time-traveling individual debating with Li Shimin.
The story is well-written and the plot unfolds quickly, but the updates are a bit slow.
I've never really understood why so many people idolize Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Taizong of Tang, and Emperor Taizu of Ming. All three were typical examples of people who went mad in their later years, with such a strong desire for power that they wouldn't relinquish it until they died.
Nothing else, just pure enjoyment. If you're feeling frustrated in real life, this is a great read. The story should start with a sweep of the Tang Dynasty from Liaodong. If they reconcile in the end, then never mind.
It's great! I've always felt that Li Chengqian was treated too unfairly! I really hate how Emperor Li treated him!
This is not a story about fighting for supremacy. In terms of sheer enjoyment, it's actually more like a boomerang-like story where Li Er is placed in a parallel world as Li Chengqian. The good thing is that it didn't torture Emperor Taizong and his civil and military officials too severely; it was all about psychological warfare.
