Great Tang: Li Er Binds a System, and I Can Hear My Father's Thoughts

In the third year of the Zhenguan era, drought and locust plagues struck. The Tang emperor issued an edict ordering the burial of the exposed corpses left by the Sui dynasty, held a grand ceremony to worship Heaven and publicly acknowledge his own faults, then declared a general amnesty throughout the realm. On the night he returned to Ganlu Hall from the ceremony, he bound himself to the Emperor System.

The System issued a choice-based quest. Quest One: Abolish Li Chengqian as crown prince and appoint the Prince of Han instead. Reward: Sweet Dew from Heaven and a million granaries across the ten circuits of the realm.

Quest Two: Borrow grain from the great clans. Reward: Sweet Dew from Heaven and the extermination of all locusts.

The Tang emperor chose Quest One, never expecting that the Prince of Han, Li Ke, who had overheard his inner thoughts, would refuse the crown prince's position and suggest that he borrow grain from the great clans instead.

"I just want you to be crown prince. Why is it so difficult?"

Li Ke, who had transmigrated and read the history of the Tang dynasty thoroughly, knew full well that in the early days of the Tang, being crown prince was an extremely dangerous job. For the sake of his own life, all he wanted was to be an idle prince. There was no way he would become crown prince, not in this lifetime.
