Datang: My Father, Wei Zheng, Was on Death Row at the Beginning

When other people travel through the Tang Dynasty, they start out as either a prince or the son of a duke. Wei Zhiheng's journey through the Tang Dynasty was not bad at all. His father's name is Wei Zheng. But the problem is - it is now the ninth year of Wude, the eve of the Xuanwumen incident. His father was working as an adviser to Prince Li Jiancheng, and because he was involved in the East Palace Arms Case, he was framed and imprisoned. He was to be executed four days later! Looking at the date on the cell wall, Wei Zhiheng fell silent. "Kill me in four days?" "In four days, all your princes will be gone. It's not certain who will kill whom!" In order to survive and protect the Wei family, Wei Zhiheng started his career on death row. A secret letter was sent to the Prince of Qin's Mansion. The sentence "On the fourth day of June, Xuanwu Gate" kept Li Shimin awake all night. From then on, there was one more person in Datang who gave Li Shimin a headache than Wei Zheng. Are the Turks coming? Is the family blocking the road? Tubo begs to marry a princess? Wei Zhiheng spread out the map: "What are you marrying for? Let Songtsen Gampo come to Chang'an to kowtow." Does Japan have gold and silver? "Your Majesty, I suggest building a ship." Is there still a thousand kilograms of grain produced per mu overseas? Li Shimin stood up suddenly: "Continue building! Move the entire shipyard to me!" Many years later. When the Tang fleet sailed thousands of miles away, Li Shimin looked at the world map covering the entire Tai Chi Palace, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Wei Zhiheng, what exactly did you want to do to the Tang Dynasty?" Wei Zhiheng thought for a while. "It's nothing." "I just feel that the prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history books is not prosperous enough."
