The Great Tang Dynasty, Taiji Palace.

Li Shimin was playing with the little rhinoceros in his arms when he suddenly saw several lines of Tang Dynasty calligraphy appear in the sky.

Upon seeing the contents of the words, he quickly covered the little ox's eyes.

"Father, why are you covering my eyes?" Little Si cried, trying to pry his hands off. "If I can't eat that donkey roll, can't I at least look at it?"

"My dear Sizi, there's something you shouldn't see." Li Shimin insisted on holding her hand tightly, lest she pick up the banter between the two emperors across time. "If you behave, your father will have the Imperial Kitchen prepare some donkey rolls for you to try, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Little Sizi obediently nodded.

A moment later, the golden characters in the sky slowly disappeared.

Li Shimin asked, "Minister Wei, do you know why golden characters appeared in the sky?"

After pondering for a while, Wei Zheng replied, "In my humble opinion, since that sky appeared in the sky above our Great Tang Dynasty, perhaps it was the same in other dynasties as well."

Li Shimin nodded. "You are right! If that's the case, then those golden characters really came from the mouths of the First Emperor and the later Hongwu Emperor?"

He felt envious; being able to directly converse with emperors of past and future dynasties was undoubtedly a wonderful experience!

Wei Zheng saw through his thoughts and suggested, "Why doesn't Your Majesty give it a try? Perhaps by attempting to communicate with emperors from other time periods, you can transform words into text and have them appear in the heavens!"

"Your Excellencies," Li Shimin said to the heavens, "we are both emperors. Let us not let a momentary misunderstanding damage our harmony and make us a laughingstock among our ministers. My little princess is still young; do not use vulgar language to corrupt her!"

Sure enough, as soon as Li Shimin finished speaking, his words appeared in the sky.

"I am the First Emperor, how dare you, a mere child, speak such nonsense! If you dare to utter another word, I will exterminate all those with the surname Zhu! —Qin Dynasty, First Emperor Ying Zheng."

"To slaughter innocent people over a mere verbal dispute—such tyranny! No wonder the dynasty only lasted two generations! —Zhu Yuanzhang, the Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

"I am your ancestor! To disrespect one's ancestors is to be unworthy! —Qin Dynasty, First Emperor Ying Zheng."

"A crow chatters and cackles, spewing filth from its mouth! Let's not have fun today, or its mouth will be rotten tomorrow morning! — Zhu Yuanzhang, Hongwu Emperor of the Ming Dynasty."

Looking at the words that kept appearing on the sky, Li Shimin shook his head inwardly. It seemed that Little Sizi couldn't look at the sky today!

Zhu Jingjing was happily enjoying her donkey roll when she saw Jiang Chuan looking down at his phone and complaining, "Brother, don't just play by yourself, teach me how to use it too!"

Jiang Chuan didn't even look up. "Wait a minute, I'm watching the live stream. I'll teach you after it's over."

"Live broadcast?" Zhu Jingjing leaned closer curiously and saw a football match playing on the screen. "Isn't this supposed to be a football match? Why is it called a live broadcast?"

Jiang Chuan knew that if he didn't explain things clearly to her, the little princess would definitely pester him and he wouldn't be able to watch the live stream.

"You've already learned how to watch TV, right? There are live TV programs. They set up independent signal acquisition equipment on-site, import it into the broadcasting terminal, and then upload it to a server via the network and publish it to a website for people to watch."

Zhu Jingjing nodded, seemingly understanding, and pointed to the text that kept floating across the screen, asking, "What's with these words? They're blocking the view, it's so hard to see!"

"That's called bullet comments!"

Jiang Chuan reached out and pulled the noisy little princess to sit beside him. "The Sky Curtain: A Journey Through Modern Times with Zhu Jingjing, Shaking All Dynasties," a sincere offering from Yu Shan Jing Lun, is exclusively released by Kele Novels! "The essence of online live streaming lies in the ability to communicate in real-time with the streamer or other users through bullet comments!"

"The reversing team is activated!"

"What stinky feet! Go home and wash them right now!"

"Come on! Let's beat them 3-0!"

Looking at the endless stream of comments, Zhu Jingjing scratched his head. "Brother, what is all this nonsense? I don't understand any of it."

Jiang Chuan smiled wryly. The development of bullet screen culture to this point is not so easy to understand.

Even seasoned livestreamers might find themselves completely confused when watching a different livestream.

"Jingjing, this can't be taught. You'll understand it naturally if you watch more."

After saying that, he immediately regretted it. "Of course, personally, I hope you never understand!"

Jiang Chuan couldn't imagine what a heartbreaking scene it would be if the little princess opened her mouth one day and all sorts of internet memes started popping out!

Zhu Jingjing leaned her head on Jiang Chuan's shoulder. "Since that's the case, then I won't study anymore, and I won't watch any live streams!"

Jiang Chuan quickly corrected him, "You should still watch some high-quality live stream content, as long as you don't turn on the chat!"

"But isn't the barrage of comments the essence...?"

"I went back on my word earlier, I'll say it again!" Jiang Chuan quickly changed his tune, "The comments section is garbage, good kids should never watch it!"

The Great Ming Dynasty, Fengtian Hall.

"Chongba, look!" Empress Ma pointed to the sky and said, "Your conversation with the First Emperor just now sounds like the 'bullet screen' Jiang Chuan was talking about!"

Zhu Yuanzhang had just adapted his poem criticizing scholars to end his verbal sparring with Ying Zheng, and only then did his anger subside.

He looked up at the sky, watching his phone screen reflected in the celestial canopy, finding it quite novel. "So, that canopy is like a live stream, and I and that old Qin Shi Huang are both viewers!"

Seeing that his anger had subsided, Empress Ma advised, "Chongba, you should stop arguing with other emperors in the future. It's not just our Ming and Qin dynasties that are sharing the live broadcast; Li Shimin of the Tang dynasty also spoke up just now. Let's avoid making a fool of ourselves in front of other dynasties."

After a moment's thought, Old Zhu nodded, "As you say! Of course, on the condition that old man Ying Zheng doesn't provoke me!"

After watching the game with Jiang Chuan, Zhu Jingjing pestered him to teach her how to use a mobile phone.

Jiang Chuan registered an account for the little princess on a payment app and linked his bank card. "Jingjing, I taught you how to use mobile payment yesterday, do you remember?"

Zhu Jingjing nodded. "Of course I remember! If you don't believe me, take me shopping now and see!"

Jiang Chuan waved his hand and chuckled, "Jingjing, you can't afford anything right now! Although I've linked my bank card to your account, the balance is zero!"

Zhu Jingjing was taken aback, then resorted to her old trick, grabbing Jiang Chuan's arm and shaking it violently. "Brother, just give me a little bit of the money! At worst, once we find a way back, I'll have Father Emperor pay you back double!"

Jiang Chuan shook his head and said, "No! Those who do not work, do not eat!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Jingjing pouted, looking pitiful, "Brother, how can I get a number? If I never get one, what's the point of buying me a phone!"

"Don't worry, I'll figure something out!"

Jiang Chuan ruffled her hair and smiled mischievously, "Jingjing, it's time to find you a class to attend!"
