Five Emperors in One Family: My Father Is Emperor Gaozong of Tang

Personally, I think the protagonist didn't understand who his real enemy was. His real enemy was neither Li Zhi nor anyone else, but Wu Zetian! Compared to Li Zhi, Wu Zetian was the protagonist's greatest enemy. Don't mistakenly believe that Wu Zetian valued family ties. If she truly cared, history wouldn't have allowed Li Hong's crown princess to be raped by her nephew without any punishment.

At first, I thought this book would be very depressing, because anyone familiar with Wu Zetian would know what to expect. But after reading it, I realized the protagonist took a completely unexpected path, and the writing style is lighthearted. It lets you know the protagonist's struggles without making you feel oppressed. A truly talented author.

Li Hong? His fiancée was raped by Wu Zetian's nephew?

If the Xuanwu Gate Incident hadn't happened, the protagonist's fate wouldn't have been good. Li Zhi himself didn't trust his son at all, and Wu Zetian was blinded by power. As the crown prince, his future crown princess was killed, but the person who did it got away with it and the dynasty was still in its golden age. It would have been a miracle in history.

The title "Emperor" wouldn't have appeared in the Tang Dynasty. The most common title was "Your Majesty" (陛下). During Emperor Gaozong's reign, it was "Holy Emperor" (圣上). Emperor Gaozong even gave himself the title "Heavenly Emperor" (天皇). Empress Wu Zetian was "Empress." The Tang Dynasty certainly wouldn't have had titles like "So-and-so, Your Excellency" (某某大人). Are you calling me "father"?

Did the author watch Lu Qiyuan's video? He said that the Tang Dynasty did not fall because of the regional military governors, but because of finance—the money exchange system led by Li Linfu allowed capital to expand excessively, disrupting the market, encroaching on farmland, and ruining the financial resources of the local army, which led to a series of disasters.

When did they enter the Xuanwu Gate? As everyone knows, only those whose names were called out outside the Xuanwu Gate were the fine sons of the Tang Dynasty's Li family.

Scholars or intellectuals tend to think in terms of following certain rules and assuming that others do the same. Within the rules, I acted clever, smugly pleased with myself for being awesome, for I did nothing wrong, for how stupid the other party was, and for having high technology. The reality is, they'll slit your throat after get off work.

Um, Your Majesty? That title should be changed. "Emperor" only came into use in the Qing Dynasty; in the Tang Dynasty, it was basically "Your Majesty the Sage, Son of Heaven, Emperor."

Aside from surviving his own death, the protagonist's life remains largely unchanged! Therefore, there are few satisfying moments, making the poor performance quite normal! No matter how well the later chapters are written, it's useless! The first few dozen chapters offer no exciting moments and don't change any major historical events or course of events!
