Datang: Rebirth of Li Chengqian, the beginning of the treason interrogation

Chapter 4 East Palace
In the East Palace, willows swayed gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound, as if it were a sad song, reflecting the decline of the East Palace today.

All the servants and guests in the Eastern Palace were imprisoned and could not enter or leave the Eastern Palace freely. All that was left was the empty palace and the lonely courtyard.

The once prosperous and bustling East Palace has now become extremely desolate and deserted.

Rows of imperial guards stood neatly around the prince's residence, adding a hint of solemnity to the atmosphere.

"Father, you are back. These people are so scary."

Inside the mansion, a little boy who was about five years old poked his head out timidly, his eyes filled with fear and anxiety.

This is cheap...son Li Xiang.

Li Chengqian's face twitched. He not only gave away a father, but also a son.

Li Xiang was born in the 638th year of Zhenguan (643), and now it is the 619th year of Zhenguan (24). At this time, Li Chengqian () is only years old, which is too early for him to get married.

"It's okay!" Li Chengqian stretched out his hand stiffly and stroked little Li Xiang's head.

"Xiang'er, stop making trouble. Your father is tired."

A faint fragrance wafted into my nose, and a graceful figure... a young woman appeared before my eyes. Her face was delicate and beautiful, with a hint of sadness, which made people love her.

Her figure is impeccable, one inch more would make her look fat, one inch less would make her look thin, everything is just right.

This is the fleshy feeling that the Tang Dynasty pursued, rather than the deformed bony feeling of later generations.

"Not tired!"

All of a sudden, Li Chengqian felt that this adopted son was much cuter.

If all the deals are buy one get one free, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have a few more orders.

Dian Wei’s death was not unjust.

"What does your majesty say?" The young woman clasped her hands tightly together, feeling extremely nervous. The Su family had a daughter who was extremely beautiful and would marry into a noble family.

She is the eldest daughter of Secretary Su Tan and a lady from a wealthy family. She is naturally very aware of the current changes. The Prince's Mansion is facing unprecedented difficulties.

"It's okay, everything will be fine." Li Chengqian took the hands of the little one and the young one and walked into the inner room.

Today has been a day of ups and downs. The ancients were right. Those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future.

"I am warming up the wine for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

In April, the weather in the north is still a little chilly, so it is just the right time to warm up the quilt and drink some wine.

"A toast to the past!"

After a moment, Li Chengqian picked up the steaming wine glass, tilted his hand slightly, and fell to the ground.

He watched the wine slowly flow on the ground, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart. He knew that he could not go back, and there was nothing wrong with being in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.

At the very least, now he no longer has to review thousands of GB of study materials in the dead of night like before.

"A toast to tomorrow!"

Li Chengqian raised his glass again, his eyes flashing with determination, full of confidence in the future. As a time traveler, he must add the most profound color to the Tang Dynasty.

"A toast to myself!" Li Chengqian drank the third cup in one gulp. It was a little spicy, but very choking and difficult to swallow.

Even though it tastes so bad, it is still popular among people.

After experiencing so much in one day, Li Chengqian couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.

With the company of beautiful women, he got drunker and drunker.

So much so that, in the end, Li Chengqian actually got drunk.

"One misstep can lead to eternal regret; when you look back you are already a hundred years old.

The bitter wind and rain darken the river pavilion, and the long iron chain bridge locks up the lonely soul.

It is hard to see each other again in this life, and it is unknown when we will meet again. Flowers fall all over the ground, and birds fly away in fright. The setting sun is like blood and tears staining my clothes. "

At the dinner table, after getting drunk, Li Chengqian spoke of his feelings. He lamented about his fate, that it would be difficult for him to see his former relatives again, and he also felt sorry for the original owner.

Li Chengqian really made a mistake that caused him eternal regret. If it weren't for his foot disease, history would have been very different.

"What a good poem!" Su's pretty face was full of shock. She was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had a strong appreciation for poetry. This poem also fully described the true portrayal of Li Chengqian today.

She heard helplessness, confusion and unwillingness.

"Boom!" Li Chengqian's shaking body suddenly fell down.

"Your Highness!" Su was startled and immediately screamed.

"boom!"

A team of soldiers in colorful uniforms suddenly rushed in and immediately stepped forward to check on Li Chengqian.

"General Zhang, it's okay. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is drunk."

An armored soldier bowed and said that they were the imperial guards of Emperor Taizong of Tang. They had only a hundred cavalrymen, all of whom were loyal men who were proficient in riding and shooting, and were called the Hundred Cavalry Imperial Guards, who could fight one against a hundred.

It was also because of the treason case that they were sent to Li Chengqian to supervise him.

"Help the prince to rest!" The general nodded. It was good that Li Chengqian was fine.

The faint light of morning sun shines into the room through the window, casting colorful shadows on the ground, like golden sand.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has ordered that you go to Taiji Palace."

In a daze, Li Chengqian seemed to hear a voice calling him, but his splitting headache made it difficult for him to concentrate.

He felt dizzy and tried to open his heavy eyelids. His vision gradually became clear. The first thing he saw was a pretty face that made him feel distressed. Her eyes revealed concern and worry.

"Drinking will cause trouble, drinking will cause trouble! You can't... drive if you drink, and you can't drive if you drink."

Li Chengqian stood up with difficulty, saying with some regret.

"What did the prince say? Do you want to go by car?" Su didn't know what was going on, but helped Li Chengqian up and fixed his appearance.

"Although I don't know anything about politics, if Your Majesty has something to rebuke me, I hope the Crown Prince will not talk back."

Finally, Su couldn't help but open her mouth and give a warning. It was not the first time that Li Chengqian was scolded, and now was an extraordinary period.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen after today."

Li Shimin sent someone to summon him instead of bringing him over, so things were not that bad anymore.

After Li Chengqian left the palace, he walked towards Taiji Palace under the guidance of an old eunuch.

"Prince, did anything happen after you returned?"

Li Shimin asked in the main hall, and it seemed as if he was talking to himself, because there was no one in the hall.

"Last night, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince got drunk and sang a poem."

A figure appeared, as if it appeared out of thin air.

"Reciting poetry?"

This is really strange. Didn't he always like to play the role of a Turkic cavalryman? When did he learn to recite poems and paint?

"What poem is it?" Li Shimin did not take it seriously. Prejudice is like a mountain that cannot be moved just because you want to.

"One misstep can lead to eternal regret...!"

The soldier spoke in a gentle voice, saying that he had memorized all of it after only hearing Li Chengqian recite it once.

In other words, they remember every word Li Chengqian had said before. This is more high-tech than high-tech.
