Time Travel: Unrivaled in the Tang Dynasty

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin in disbelief. He had put so much thought into planning for the throne for his father, even disregarding brotherly love and ethical principles. Didn't he have the slightest attachment to the throne?

"Cheng Qian, I hope you can be a wise ruler and leave a good reputation for generations to come! I feel guilty towards your mother, so passing the throne to you can be considered as compensation!" Li Shimin let out a long sigh and lay down slowly, closing his eyes. The image of the gorgeous and virtuous Empress Changsun emerged in his mind! He owed her too much in his life!

In his last years, he just wanted to be a good father!

But the wheel of fate will never change because of what you want or not!

Seeing Li Shimin faint again! Li Chengqian knelt down in front of Li Shimin's bed, clenching his fists. He began to feel confused and doubtful!

He didn't think he could be a good emperor, he just yearned for that kind of power and desire!

Concubine Wei walked into the bedroom and looked at Li Chengqian kneeling on the ground. She couldn't help feeling a little disappointed! She had risked the world's disapproval to have an affair with him, thinking that she could consolidate her position in the harem!

Now it seems that this deposed prince seems to be domineering and unruly, but he still cannot give up his family affection, which will be his fatal weakness!

"Cheng Qian! Although we control the Imperial Guards and the Jinwu Guards, the guards outside the palace are still a huge threat! Now we should send our trusted aides to take control of all the guards in our own hands!" Concubine Wei expressed her thoughts!

"It's not that simple! Those old stubborn people won't hand over their military power!" Li Chengqian knew those founding generals very well. It was impossible to make them surrender with just an imperial edict!

But he had already made plans! So he was not worried. As long as the palace's plan went well, the throne would definitely be his!

Especially Li Shimin's attitude made him feel foolproof!

Ye Haoran and others came to the Taiji Hall, each with their own thoughts! Soon, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Li Ji, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and other founding fathers also arrived one after another!

Chang'an City is guarded by the Sixteen Southern Guards with nearly 200,000 soldiers and horses. Except for the Jinwu Guards and Qianniu Guards who guard the imperial city, the rest are stationed outside Chang'an City and are not allowed to enter the city!

Several generals have no authority to mobilize troops without imperial orders!

"What on earth happened in the palace? Why did His Majesty suddenly blockade the palace?" Changsun Wuji asked the question that everyone was wondering!

But no one answered. Although Ye Haoran had some guesses, he had no good feelings towards this cunning guy and was too lazy to pay attention to him!

Seeing no one respond, Changsun Wuji also sat down awkwardly! The hall was filled with dullness!

Li Zhi stood up and walked to Yang Guifei!

"Auntie! You should know the things in the palace best. People are in a panic right now. I hope you can tell me the truth!"

Everyone also turned their attention to Concubine Yang!

Concubine Yang looked at Li Zhi in embarrassment! If she told the truth, how would the royal family save its reputation?

Li Zhi saw through Concubine Yang's secret and winked at his uncle, Zhangsun Wuji!

Changsun Wuji immediately understood, stood up and led everyone away from the Taiji Hall, leaving only a few royal members including Concubine Yang, Li Zhi, Li Ke and Li Xiuning!

After walking out of the Taiji Hall, the crowd waiting outside quickly split into two small circles, with the civil officials and military generals discussing their own affairs!

Ye Haoran took Xiuxiu to find a stone platform to sit down. He was not interested in the debate and discussion of a group of people not far away! Because it was meaningless!

This matter now seems to be a sign of forcing the emperor to abdicate! The Imperial Guards and Jinwu Guards in the palace have obviously been controlled!

The other fifteen guards were just acting according to the imperial edict. Jingzhao Prefecture only had a few thousand soldiers and they were of little use!

Once the mutiny breaks out, no one will be able to do anything!
