My hotel is full of emperors throughout history.

Chen Mo swallowed hard, his teasing and casual expression vanishing instantly.

"Enough...enough! That's more than enough!"

His voice trembled slightly as he carefully picked up the melon seed and gently ran his finger along it.

Faint marks were left on it.

This texture, this softness and firmness...

What the hell!

It's true, damn it!

Chen Mo looked at the two people in front of him, and the expression on his face could no longer be described as shock.

Gold is given for staying at a hotel?

That's outrageously extravagant!

What the hell!

My dad's awesome!

This wretched place is actually a geomantically auspicious spot!

"Distinguished guests, this way please! The best rooms will be arranged for you immediately!"

Chen Mo grabbed the two keys, carefully stuffed the golden melon seeds into his pocket, and, not caring about the instant noodles, led the two directly towards the stairs.

The young man followed Chen Mo calmly.

The scholar behind him glanced at the young man and then followed him upstairs.

The wooden stairs creaked underfoot.

Why is this staircase creaking? It seems unstable.

The man frowned slightly, somewhat worried about the building's stability.

"Ah, it's an old house, a little noise is normal. Don't worry! It's absolutely safe!"

Chen Mo quickly assured him and turned to ask.

"By the way, may I ask how I address you two?"

The young man and the middle-aged scholar exchanged a glance.

Just call me Li Erlang.

"Just call me Lao Fang."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo turned around and looked at the two of them with a surprised expression.

One is handsome and composed, the other is refined and steady.

He exuded heroic spirit, and even produced Kaiyuan Tongbao coins, and most importantly, he also produced gold...

With gold prices at these times, who would pay with gold when they go out?

Chen Mo asked instinctively.

"Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling?"

"You know me???"

The young man frowned and asked on the spot.

"Besides Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, who else is called Li Erlang?"

Chen Mo turned back to look at him again and smiled slightly.

"Of course, we still call him Li Erfeng here."

"Li Erfeng???"

Li Shimin's lips twitched, and he felt increasingly strange.

Upon reaching the second-floor corridor, the motion-activated lights illuminated with their footsteps, casting a soft white glow on the CD player.

Li Shimin and Fang Xuanling stopped almost simultaneously, looked up sharply at the light shining above them, and expressions of astonishment appeared on their faces.

"What is this thing? It doesn't contain any wax, yet it glows on its own, just like a luminous pearl?"

Fang Xuanling murmured in a trembling voice.

He subconsciously took a step forward, carefully examining the luminous object, and even cautiously touched it with his hand to feel if it was warm.

Although Li Shimin was much calmer, his sharp eyes were filled with disbelief.

He looked around the corridor and noticed that there was such a luminous pearl at regular intervals, illuminating the entire corridor as bright as day. He couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

"The shop owner must be really rich, using such a treasure just for the corridor lighting."

Seeing their reactions, Chen Mo coughed and explained.

"This is an electric light, it uses electricity... it's a kind of energy, it lights up when electricity is applied."

"electricity?"

Li Shimin noticed the word and raised his eyebrows.

"Was that lightning from the sky?"

"Uh... more or less, but not exactly the same. It's man-made... roughly like this, then that and finally that, and it can be made..."

Chen Mo felt that the more he explained, the worse it got, so he simply stopped talking and led the two people to the door of the room.

"Please come in, gentlemen. This is your room."

Chen Mo opened the door, inserted the room card, and turned to the side.

Li Shimin stepped in first, followed closely by Fang Xuanling.

Then, the two of them were frozen in place again, their pupils suddenly contracting.

The room wasn't big, but it was clean and tidy.

Snow-white walls, gleaming tiled floors, two large Simmons beds covered with plain-colored sheets, and light-colored curtains hanging in the transparent glass windows.

Most importantly—the ceiling light overhead, the wall switches and sockets, and the bathroom facilities vaguely visible behind the frosted glass door…

All of this was like another world to them.

Li Shimin's gaze slowly swept across the entire room, finally landing on the light switch on the wall.

He stretched out his finger and pressed it gently.

"Clatter".

The ceiling light turned on immediately, casting a soft glow throughout the room.

"!!!"

Li Shimin instantly withdrew his hand, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Although he tried his best to remain calm, his slightly constricted pupils betrayed the shock in his heart.

Upon seeing this, Fang Xuanling gasped in shock.

Just like when he saw the light earlier, he quickly walked to the switch, examined it carefully, and even touched the cold plastic panel with his fingers, muttering to himself.

"I've never seen this material before, and I have no idea how it controls the luminous pearls on it."

Then, his gaze was drawn to the television.

"What is this thing?"

Upon hearing this, Li Shimin also looked at the television, his face showing surprise.

Chen Mo looked at the two of them, shook his head with a smile, and picked up the TV remote.

"This is a television, um... you can see what's happening outside and hear sounds, it's kind of... a form of entertainment."

After saying that, he pressed the switch.

The TV made a few noises, then the screen lit up, showing a trailer for a period drama.

The scene is filled with the glint of swords and the sound of horses' hooves.

"!!!"

Li Shimin abruptly took half a step back, his hand instantly pressing against his waist, his eyes becoming incredibly sharp.

Fang Xuanling was so shocked that his expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously stepped half a step in front of Li Shimin.

"Illusion? Who hid it in this box?!"

Li Shimin's voice carried an unprecedented solemnity and majesty.

"No, this is technology, it's not real."

Chen Mo explained.

He quickly pressed the remote control again, trying to change the channel.

However, the next second

"Chengqian!"

"Your Majesty, please address me as Crown Prince!!!"
