With Li Shimin alive, would you even dare to rebel? Go take a good look at Li Shimin's military record; he's easily among the top five emperors. Li Yuan can't compare to Li Shimin. Xuanwu Gate Incident? You'd probably be the one who dies there!
Tired
The protagonist was scheming and plotting every day when he was the crown prince, and he was still scheming and plotting every day when he became the emperor. It feels like the author couldn't write anything else besides these things!
Many people don't understand why, in the later years of Emperor Taizong of Tang, there was an opportunity to pass through Xuanwu Gate. Many people don't know that Li Shimin actually launched three campaigns against Goguryeo. And each time it was larger in scale than the last.
The protagonist seems a bit too weak in the face of the Second Princess. He should find some excuse, bring the Empress's memorial tablet, and say at the Empress's tomb that the Second Princess cannot tolerate him and wants to make Qingque the Crown Prince. Then he should just ram his head against it.
If Li Chengqian had a limp, hadn't rebelled, and had behaved himself, do you think the Second Princess would have given him the throne?
Why does everyone think they can rebel against Li Shimin? Rebellion requires the right timing, location, and popular support. First of all, those meritorious officials in the Lingyan Pavilion wouldn't allow it, because you can't offer them much. During Li Shimin's reign, the Five Clans and Seven Noble Families didn't hold real power in the court. You simply couldn't rebel and rise to power.
Li Chengqian brought this upon himself. Li Shimin never even considered changing the crown prince. Even when Li Chengqian was crippled and ministers suggested changing the crown prince, Li Shimin refused. It's true that Li Shimin favored Li Tai, but the greatest power he gave Li Tai was limited to the literary academy; he didn't grant him any personnel or military authority, and the only reward…
Traveling back to the Tang Dynasty and using memories to start a rebellion?
Is this a joke? What's the difference between this and time-traveling to the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Di rebelling against Zhu Yuanzhang? And the constant talk of Li Shimin fearing rebellion is just ridiculous. Li Shimin was the most confident emperor in himself, bar none.
Too many conspiracy theories
The author has too many secondary settings (possibly unofficial historical accounts). The Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty shouldn't be portrayed as treacherous and unpredictable. For a newly established dynasty and an emperor who has been waging wars, depicting everyone at the end of a dynasty as having ulterior motives is too far-fetched. Regardless of what kind of person Li Shimin was, if he's the kind of character the author depicts, it's ridiculous.
