A grassroots researcher who was exhausted at his job suddenly passed through the ninth year of Zhenguan and took over the worst reserve mess in the Tang Dynasty. He became the lame and disabled prince Li Chengqian, who was notorious throughout the dynasty. The road ahead was destined to end in history: brotherhood, jealousy of the king, ruin of reputation, and tragic death due to the abolition of the ban.
At the beginning, he took the initiative to dismiss his male favorite, peel off all the stains on himself, and in the most decisive way of self-purification, he handed Li Shimin a bloody letter of surrender.
All the officials in the government and the public thought that the prince was repentant and struggling to survive. Only Li Shimin, who had experienced the Xuanwu Sect, could see through this scene at a glance.
There is no tenderness between father and son in this book, only the tacit understanding between king and minister. This is not a plea for mercy to save life, but a sharp butcher knife specially designed to kill the oligarchs and break up the troubled times.
Others rely on conspiracy and assassination, intra-party fighting, and bloody alliances to seize the throne. Li Chengqian reduced the dimensions throughout the whole process and only played the conspiracy of the top system.
A pair of emperor father and son, who were suspicious of each other and tested each other, quietly formed an alliance in the undercurrent of the court. Li Shimin took the imperial power to check and balance the four parties, and Li Chengqian's administrative system broke the monopoly.
The world ridiculed him for his lame body and his embarrassing responsibilities, but they didn't know that this body contained a shocking strategy that overturned the centuries-old pattern of the early Tang Dynasty. Let's watch the lame prince Zhenguan play chess, tear down the barriers of the noble clans with a thousand-year-old governance method, revitalize the dead Tang Dynasty, and rewrite the destiny of the country in the prosperous age!
