I have already established my power and prestige, so how did Li Shimin come back to life?

"I have every confidence in this campaign. Our Tang Dynasty soldiers are brave and fearless. How can we not win?"

After hearing Li Chengqian's words, Li Shimin raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, but there was still a hint of doubt hidden in that smile: "If that's the case, why are you still so worried?"

"But Cheng Qian, father still needs to remind you of two things."

"Now that the war is imminent, it's inappropriate for you to be so extravagant and reward the entire army. Doesn't this make you seem lazy?"

"You know, even a lion must exert all its might when catching a rabbit. Even though the Tang Dynasty is now confident of victory, we must not let our guard down."

"If we win this battle, we'll reward the entire army after it's over. No amount of celebration will be excessive."

"Of course, Cheng Qian, you've grown up now and have your own ideas and opinions. Perhaps your father's ideas are a bit outdated and can't keep up with your thinking."

"If you have any better ideas, you might as well talk to Father. This will also help my old bones keep up with you young people."

Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin quietly, his eyes revealing determination. He shook his head again and said, "Father, you are right. Now is indeed not a good time to reward the entire army."

"This action of mine is not intended to reward the entire army."

"Oh?"

Li Shimin's eyebrows raised slightly, his eyes full of doubts.

"Why is that?"

Li Chengqian was silent for a moment, his gaze slowly turning to the east.

At this time, a red sun is slowly rising from the horizon, and its soft light is shining on the earth, adding a touch of warmth and hope to this cold world.

Li Chengqian looked a little solemn as he said softly, "To commemorate someone's birthday."

Li Shimin looked in the direction of Li Chengqian's finger, his eyes filled with even greater confusion. He turned to look at Li Chengqian and said, "A person's birthday? Who in this world could make a Son of Heaven like you go to such great lengths to commemorate it?"

"Cheng Qian, don't be too sentimental."

"Whoever this person is, could he be more noble than you and me?"

"Having the entire army commemorate this together, isn't that a bit too much of a joke?"

"Father, let me ask you, who is this person?"

"If you don't want to tell me his name, then you can tell me about his achievements."

Li Chengqian did not answer immediately, but just stared at the red sun quietly, lost in a vortex of memories.

He raised his hand and pointed at the rising red sun.

"Father, look, he's right there, always there!"

Li Shimin looked towards the red sun.

"Cheng Qian, that's the rising sun. Could it be that you are commemorating the sun?"

"Father, what I commemorate is the sun."

After a while, he raised his foot slightly and walked slowly towards the sun alone, while raising his hand to signal Zhang Xianhuai and Li Shimin not to follow him.

When he reached an open space, Li Chengqian stopped, straightened his clothes, and with the dignity of an emperor and the etiquette between teacher and student, he bowed deeply to the rising red sun solemnly.

His lips trembled slightly, and he murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "Teacher, happy birthday!"

"Although we have never met, it seems like you are by my side."

On the vast plains of Yingzhou, the Tang Dynasty Emperor Li Chengqian stood quietly under the red sun. After a long time, he slowly straightened his back.

At this moment, if one of the three fortune tellers of the Tang Dynasty who were good at observing the celestial phenomena and predicting fortunes was here, he would be able to see that a strange scene was faintly emerging in Li Chengqian's fortune.

The little red men from before slowly merged together to form the rising red sun.

The little red men with black lines on their bodies fled in panic.

The light of the red sun continued to illuminate the wisps of black energy on the real dragon's body, slowly wrapping the real dragon.

This is the image of the red sun swallowing a dragon!
