Li Shimin faked his death? Then I will be powerful enough to conquer the world!

In the first year of Qianwu, the domestic situation in Goguryeo was turbulent.

Quan Gaisuwen launched a coup.

He rushed to where King Jianwu was, raised his sword and slashed, and Jianwu fell in a pool of blood.

At the same time, those ministers loyal to the king were not spared and were brutally killed one after another.

After the coup, Quan Gaisuwen completely took control of Goguryeo's military and political power and began to monopolize state affairs.

His desire was not satisfied at this point. Soon after, he turned his attention to Silla and sent a large army to march towards Silla.

Silla was a small and weak country. Facing the powerful offensive of Goguryeo, it was completely unable to resist. In desperation, it could only urgently ask the Tang Dynasty for help.

Hope that the Tang Dynasty can send troops to help.

This year, Li Chengqian announced that he had sent Tang envoys to Goguryeo in an attempt to resolve the dispute peacefully, hoping that both sides could put aside their past grudges and shake hands in peace.

No one outside knows whether this Tang envoy was actually sent or whether it was just a political tactic of Li Chengqian.

It was the middle of the night and everything was quiet.

Li Shimin sat on the couch with a slightly gloomy face. He turned his head with a hint of temper and ignored Li Chengqian who was standing behind him.

Li Chengqian had a gentle smile on his face. He walked carefully behind Li Shimin, gently stretched out his hands, and skillfully massaged Li Shimin's shoulders, trying to resolve Li Shimin's dissatisfaction.

"Father, please don't be angry. I know very well that my actions this time were indeed too reckless and I didn't consider your dignity at all."

Li Chengqian's voice was soft and filled with guilt.

"I hope that you, my lord, will be magnanimous and forgive my mistake this time for You'er's sake."

Hearing Li Chengqian's sincere and submissive words, Li Shimin felt a slight relief. He sighed softly and said, "Chengqian, please don't think my father is nagging. You've trampled on my father's dignity, but it's actually just a small matter."

"Father is now at this age. After coming to Xianyang, he has been living a comfortable life. I never thought I would have such a peaceful life in my life. How much is this honor worth?"

"Aye is no longer the emperor."

Li Shimin paused and his tone became serious.

"What Aye is worried about, Cheng Qian, is that if you act this way, you will definitely alienate the officials."

"Even those students of yours in Xianyang, if this continues, I'm afraid they won't share the same ideals with you in the future."

Li Chengqian's hands continued to move, still firmly pressing Li Shimin's shoulders. He said calmly, "Father, I understand everything in my heart, but I am not afraid."

When Li Shimin heard Li Chengqian's fearless words, he couldn't help but feel curious. He turned around and asked, "Why aren't you afraid?"

Li Chengqian raised his head slightly, his eyes firm as he said, "Because I have millions of people behind me."

"If the officials are disloyal, I can simply kill some and replace them with others after I enlighten the people."

"I have granted them unprecedented preferential treatment. If they dare not follow my will, they will be courting death and will bear the consequences themselves."

After hearing what Li Chengqian said, Li Shimin shook his head helplessly and said, "Forget it, forget it. You can handle it on your own. I have no intention of interfering in government affairs anymore."

When Li Chengqian heard Li Shimin's words, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Aye, have you been feeling a bit bored in Xianyang lately?"

Li Shimin frowned slightly, thought for a moment and said, "It's not so bad. I'm living a comfortable and pleasant life. What's wrong?"

Li Chengqian raised his mouth with a mysterious arc, keeping the secret secret.

"After the New Year, my Tang Dynasty will have several major battles to fight."

"If you are interested, Aye, why not lead the meritorious men of the Tang Dynasty and organize a sightseeing tour?"

"Then I will take you to experience the mighty military power of the Tang Dynasty!"

When Li Shimin heard this, his eyes lit up instantly and were full of excitement.

"A big war? Where's the war? Isn't the world peaceful now?"

When he thought of this, doubts appeared in Li Shimin's eyes.

Li Chengqian gently patted Li Shimin's neck, ending the massage. He then slowly walked over to sit across from Li Shimin and began to patiently explain, "Father, when I first ascended the throne, Quan Gaisuwen of Goguryeo killed the king and his ministers. Now, he's even more aggressive and is attacking Silla with all his might."

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin's eyes widened, his face filled with anger. He shouted, "How dare you! Usurping the throne and plotting rebellion is one thing, but raising an army to cause chaos is simply outrageous! Cheng Qian! They must be destroyed for me!"

Seeing Li Shimin so excited, Li Chengqian waved his hand calmly.

"Aye, please be patient."

"I will definitely wipe them out, but it will be next year."

"I will send the troops to fight. If you feel bored, you can take the sightseeing group with you and witness with your own eyes how the Tang Dynasty will destroy the enemy country."

After hearing Li Chengqian's plan, Li Shimin couldn't help but hesitate, "Chengqian, isn't this arrangement too arrogant?"

"Besides, have you sent an envoy? Don't you want to ask first?"

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin.

"I told the public I had sent troops, but in reality I hadn't. I'll just have to have a name for it when the time comes."

"If Silla can't hold on, just merge it into our Tang Dynasty and you won't have to ask for help all the time."

"And besides, Aye, I'm not conceited."

"I just wanted to tell you."

"Times have changed!"
