   Reader note

   Then I highly recommend it! I suggest reading the comments section of the last chapter first, where the author summarizes the entire novel, which will help with understanding. "Emperor Renzu of Tang" is a top-tier alternate history drama with a stellar theme, political intrigue, military strategy, and well-developed characters. It breaks free from all the clichés of online novels, and its scope rivals that of timeless classics. The entire book is devoid of simplistic plot twists, overpowered characters, or melodramatic conflicts; every character possesses top-tier intelligence. Li Shimin is a true emperor of all time, seeing through every scheme, patiently supporting and ultimately ensuring the success of his son. Father and son are both players and pawns, creating a unique and mutually beneficial relationship between ruler and subject, father and son. All his schemes are open and aboveboard: using food to dispel Li Tai's ambition, using tenderness to settle Li Zhi, and using kindness to win over Changsun Wuji, avoiding both killing and demoting, and ensuring a bloodless succession, completely preventing a repeat of the Xuanwu Gate Incident. The military storyline is depicted with hardcore realism, employing the theory of contradiction to unite and divide the enemy. It features innovative tactics such as the "trapped horse trough" strategy and the "four crossings of Langjuxu Mountain" mobile warfare, utilizing the principle of thermal expansion and contraction to breach city walls, and relying on the pre-positioned rice-farming system in Annam to completely solve the ancient problem of insufficient food supplies for warfare. The characters are all multifaceted and poignant: Shen Luoli sacrifices herself at sixteen, Changsun Pingting is insightful and selfless, and Qin Qiong achieves greatness but dies quietly. The entire book uses benevolence to stop killing and uses systems to break the cycle of dynasties; the prosperous era begins with tragedy and ends with gentleness, its themes and depth far surpassing most historical political intrigue works.

    "Mr. Chen, my eldest sister doesn't like taking pictures, and she looks almost exactly like my second sister—you've seen her before." With just that one sentence, Hu Lingyi became Chen's second wife. Mr. Chen disliked her for her plain looks, but he couldn't help but admire her shrewdness—no penny of the Chen family's three-year income escaped her calculations. She established herself in the Chen family through her abilities, but just as she did, a strange illness struck. Coughing up blood, running out of medicine, and her backyard turning to dust—the same fate befell the two first wives. She was sent back to her parents' home, and her family's situation improved. Lingheng became a complete villain; her second sister was gently fed meat by him, without any joy or sorrow; her third brother sat under the pomegranate tree all day, silently holding an empty cricket jar. After her death, her eldest brother said the coffin was expensive and threw away a roll of straw mat. Her third brother only knew how to carry the coffin but not how to throw the straw mat, and was trampled on the ground and beaten. The only man to collect her body—Cheng Yanchi—was beaten to death at the dock simply because his second sister pleaded for him when he was about to take her away. Later, Boss Chen wanted to remarry Lingxian, but was killed by Ling Heng. Lingxian looked down at the mass on the ground and whispered, "Brother, I don't want to eat meat today." Ling Heng went to prison, and the Hu family was destitute. Reborn, Hu Lingyi refused to marry. Hu Lingxian was still the same flesh-and-blood, calculating second sister, throwing the problem of a hundred silver dollars to Cheng Yanchi with a single sentence. Cheng Yanchi forged a marriage certificate, and Hu Lingyi became a female accountant at an orphanage. Boss Chen took a new wife, and the Chen family's sins continued in this life.
