My hotel is full of emperors throughout history.

Li Chengqian's smile froze completely, and he spoke each word clearly.

"Auntie...you..."

"You mean... Uncle Zhu, and... me... my father and the others... didn't leave at all yesterday?"

Li Chengqian's voice trembled slightly.

"I only... I just got my phone this morning?" His voice was dry and trembling with disbelief.

Empress Ma raised her head and looked at Li Chengqian's face, which had turned deathly pale. She was somewhat puzzled, but still gently confirmed.

"Yes, I heard from Chongba that they went with Manager Chen last night to experience something like a bath and foot massage, and they only returned to the hotel this morning."

As she spoke, she smiled and turned her phone screen toward Li Chengqian.

"As soon as I got the phone, Chongba couldn't wait to video chat with me."

Li Chengqian glanced at his phone screen, which displayed Zhu Yuanzhang's old face, showing an excited yet somewhat clumsy expression as he studied the screen.

Behind Lao Zhu, he could even vaguely see his father's back.

That one glance shattered Li Chengqian's last shred of hope.

Zhu Biao's father is real!

So...

That "Heavenly Khan"...

Li Chengqian suddenly lowered his head and stared intently at his phone screen.

The contact he had blocked, nicknamed "Heavenly Khan," seemed to emanate an invisible, suffocating pressure.

He recalled what he had just said.

"Your attempt to portray Li Shimin was a bit of a failure!"

"Double kill at Xuanwu Gate!"

"Rain or shine, Xuanwu Gate awaits you!"

"And who do you think you are, calling me a rebellious son?!"

Even my own father wouldn't dare call me a rebellious son!!!

……

With each sentence he recalled, the color drained from his face, and a layer of cold sweat seeped out from his back.

It’s over.

This time it's really all over.

I initially thought it was just online teasing of scammers, nothing serious.

Only now do I realize that I have been frantically writing my name in the Book of Life and Death of the King of Hell with a vermilion pen.

"I...I..."

Li Chengqian's lips trembled.

He frantically tried to unblock "Tian Kehan," but his trembling fingers caused him to click on the wrong spot several times.

"Is it too late for me to travel back to the Tang Dynasty right now?!"

"Or should Manager Chen send me to a dimension or timeline where my father would never find me?!"

Li Chengqian was about to cry.

"If all else fails, send me to Brother Biao's place!"

"At least I don't have to face my father anymore!"

Meanwhile, at the hotel...

Li Shimin looked calmly at the message on the screen that read "Message sent, but rejected by the recipient," as well as the unread message from Li Chengqian that scolded him to "sit at the children's table from now on."

Of course, this calmness wasn't the absence of any emotional fluctuation; rather, it indicated extreme anger.

So that's what this unfilial son really thinks of me!

"Come" is "come", "go" is "go".

Inside Xuanwu Gate, Double Knight.

It's actually quite catchy!

Li Shimin smiled, but his smile was terrifying.

Meanwhile, Li Chengqian, who was in the hospital, was already drenched in sweat.

He looked at the blocked "Heavenly Khan," swallowed hard, and removed him from the blacklist.

Then, he racked his brains for a long time.

"Dad! That wasn't me! Someone else took my phone and sent those messages randomly!"

The chat interface was completely silent.

Li Chengqian's heart sank.

It felt like an eternity before the "typing" message finally appeared at the top of the chat box.

Li Chengqian's heart jumped into his throat again.

Finally, a message slowly popped up.

Heavenly Khan: Oh?

"Hiss~!"

Li Chengqian immediately gasped.

He was terrified when he didn't send messages, but felt utterly hopeless after sending them.

Li Chengqian: Father! I... I thought it was a swindler just now, that's why I spoke so recklessly. I really didn't know it was you!

Li Shimin sneered, and seeing Zhu Di sending a voice message, he also sent a voice message.

Tian Kehan: (No! "Come" is "come," "go" is "go"! What's the next line again?)

Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian's face turned deathly pale.

Li Chengqian: Father! I really didn't know it was you!

Tian Kehan: (Don't rush! Through wind and rain, Xuanwu Gate awaits you. What's the next line again?)

Li Chengqian (almost crying): Your son was wrong! Your son truly knows he was wrong! Father, please forgive your son this time!

Li Chengqian: Once my leg has healed, I will go and accept the punishment myself!

Heavenly Khan: Where should I go to receive my punishment? The Imperial Ancestral Temple or Xuanwu Gate?

Heavenly Khan: Don't accept the punishment, just take my throne!

Li Chengqian: Father! You know your son!

Li Chengqian: Your subject really has no such intention!

Li Chengqian: If I really had that thought, would I still be the Crown Prince now?

Heavenly Khan: Hmph! It'd be better if there wasn't!

Heavenly Khan: (Voiceover) (This time I'll spare you, let's pretend it never happened!)

Heavenly Khan: (However, you have spoken wildly and disrespectfully to your sovereign and father, which is an unforgivable crime. Considering your physical limitations, you will be confined to your quarters for three months and made to copy the "Classic of Filial Piety" and "Essentials of Governance in the Zhenguan Era" ten times each!)

Li Chengqian: Your Majesty, I thank you!

After putting down his phone, Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief, only then realizing that he was completely soaked.

He wiped the sweat from his brow, looked at a novel on his phone, and sighed.

Why is it that in the novel, he can educate Li Shimin in various ways and still get away with it?

Eh!

Being the crown prince is really tough!

Feeling frustrated, Li Chengqian opened another novel.

After a moment,

"Hahaha! That's how a prince should be!"

……

Back at the hotel,

Li Shimin looked at the chat box and smiled at Chen Mo beside him.

"If Shopkeeper Chen sees this, he'll laugh!"

Then, as if he suddenly remembered something, he asked.

"By the way, what does 'Double Kill' mean?"

Chen Mo was slightly taken aback, and blurted out the answer subconsciously.

"Double kill".

"..."

Li Shimin's smile stiffened slightly.

He shook his head and cursed.

"That unfilial son! He even dares to slander me!"

Seeing his expression, Chen Mo didn't even need to know what he had seen, so he took out his phone and showed a picture.

"Actually, you can't blame Chengqian. He probably saw this picture."

After speaking, he showed the picture to Li Shimin.

Above, Li Shimin smiled brightly and pointed at the screen—"Coming is 'come,' going is 'go,' and inside Xuanwu Gate, there's a Double Kill."

Below is another person with a similarly bright smile – "Raise an army, yes; weaken the feudal lords, no; uphold the imperial mandate, gogo."

Li Shimin: ? ? ?

Seeing Li Shimin's expression from afar, Zhu Di became curious and walked over to take a look. His face instantly darkened.

How should I describe it?

It's like the more they laugh on screen, the darker their faces are in real life.

Zhu Biao, who was originally standing next to Zhu Di, also came over and took a look when he saw their expressions.

Then, Zhu Biao fell silent.

Who made this picture?

So talented?
