[Tang Dynasty] Did Li Shimin Beat His Sons Today?

[My new novel, "[Qin] Prince Fusu," is now underway. I'm working hard to update it, so please visit my author page to collect and read it!] Blurb: Li Mingle woke up one day in the body of a baby, Li Chengqian. As someone who didn't study history, Li Mingle's main impressions of the Tang Dynasty were: Li Chengqian plotted a rebellion, was deposed, and demoted to commoner. Tang officials loved remonstrating about this and that. Being crown prince was a tough job. Taking all that into account, Li Mingle made a decision: What? Watch what I say and be careful how I act? Not happening! Letting loose and enjoying life while I can is the way to go! The civil and military officials discovered that Crown Prince Li Chengqian was exceptionally clever. He learned to read at two, studied literature at three, practiced martial arts at five, learned archery at seven, and was eloquent in debates about current affairs at eight. The only problems were his brash personality, his reckless behavior, his love of luxury, and his extravagant ways. The officials all gathered at the Eastern Palace to remonstrate with him, some with righteous indignation, some in floods of tears, and some worked into a furious passion. Li Chengqian happily took their hands and asked: "In that case, when will you submit a memorial requesting that I be deposed?" The officials: "..." Given Li Chengqian's shameless response to their remonstrations, the officials thought it over. Asking for the crown prince to be deposed was out of the question, but they could ask the emperor to step in and educate him. Surely the crown prince wouldn't be so shameless with the emperor. Who could have guessed... Li Chengqian: "Father, are you planning to depose me? Things go around in cycles, and the crown prince's position can change hands. I've been doing this for years. It might be nice to let Qingque have a turn. Or Zhinu would work, too. You decide!" Li Shimin: "...I'll give you something to decide!" [Reader's Guide] 1.
