Great Tang: I Married Your Sister, So Why Are You So Excited, Li Shimin?

At the end of the Sui dynasty, Li Yuan, the military governor of Taiyuan, led his troops south. They swept through the land until they encountered their fiercest enemy on the northern bank of the Wei River.

The Sui general Chen Fan was stationed there to block their advance. Li Yuan and his sons took turns challenging him, but could only gaze at the river in despair.

With no way forward or back, Li Yuan's daughter, Li Xiuning, stepped forward and persuaded Chen Fan to join the Tang with her own efforts.

From then on, Chen Fan became a god of war, conquering cities and territory for the Tang. Eventually, the emperor decreed a marriage, and he wed Li Shimin's older sister, Princess Pingyang.

From that point on, Chen Fan reached the pinnacle of success and embarked on the path to becoming a powerful minister.
