Good news: Time traveled.
Bad news: He became the third to last emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
When Li Ye woke up, the beams of the Huazhou palace were leaking, and the dragon robe had three holes. A bowl of cold porridge with countless grains of rice was served from the imperial kitchen. Outside the city, Li Maozhen's 30,000 iron cavalry came to the city and threatened the emperor to confer the title of "King Qi"; Cui Zhaowei, the prime minister in the city, wrote the "Edict of Sin" overnight and waited for him to press it; the eunuch Liu Jishu was planning to change to a more obedient emperor; and the man named Zhu in Bianzhou was sharpening his sword thousands of miles away.
There is only one line of ending for this young man in the history books: In the first year of Tianyou's reign, Zhu Wen killed the emperor in Luoyang.
He has twelve years left.
An emperor worthy of the world would have died long ago. Since it is fate that I will come here, I will settle this debt——
Fengxiang forced the palace? Gu asked him to kneel and listen to the order.
Shatuo cavalry going south? I am alone at the head of Chang'an City beating drums to welcome guests.
Zhu Wen's troops came to the city? I opened the city gate alone and invited him in for a cup of tea to see if he dared to drink it.
In the land of the Four Wars in the Central Plains, each feudal town had its own evil intentions, the civil servants cried and cried, and the eunuchs licked blood with the tip of their swords. Everyone felt that the young emperor would not survive the next autumn. But they don't know——
Standing in front of them was an emperor who had read the script.
The night the assassins attacked the palace at night, he stood in the courtyard holding a candlestick dripping with blood, and behind him stood the orphan girl of the Dugu family who shielded him from the knife. Cui Zhaowei, who was kneeling in the courtyard the next day, looked at the blood-stained steps that could not be washed away, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.
And something even more wrong is yet to come——
The female counselor sent by the Pei family in Hedong was calculating the ledger with him in the secret room, and in the end she was included in the calculation.
That's obviously the case
