In my dream of returning to the Tang Dynasty, I snatched Wu Zetian from my lap.

The central courtyard of Furong Garden.

Li Yuanchang broke in.

"Your Highness, please allow us to inform them that you cannot go in any further."

"Get out of the way!" Li Yuanchang shouted.

The guards looked grim and ultimately chose to forcibly block the road.

boom!

Without hesitation, Li Yuanchang kicked the man hard, knocking him to the ground.

This scene was witnessed by Li Tai, who arrived with his men. A cold glint flashed in Li Tai's narrowed eyes.

"Seventh Uncle, what brings you to your nephew's place?"

"Was it because my men were uncooperative and angered you that you resorted to such violence!"

Hearing Li Tai's ambiguous voice, Li Yuanchang was filled with anger and strode over.

Anyone could sense the murderous aura emanating from him.

Those around Li Tai were terrified and stood protectively in front of him.

"Get out of my way, all of you!" Li Tai said unhappily, not wanting to lose face.

"yes!"

At this moment, Li Yuanchang came up to Li Tai, looking down at him fiercely, his killing intent honed on the battlefield completely suppressing him.

Li Tai tried to straighten his back and meet Li Yuanchang's gaze.

But he found that he was not as tall as Li Yuanchang at all, and was obese from a life of ease, and was no match for a pragmatist like Li Yuanchang.

"King Han, what do you want to do?" Li Tai's eyes were cold.

"Do you dare speak to me alone?" Li Yuanchang said coldly.

"Why should I listen to you?" Li Tai was somewhat wary; this was a man of two hundred men who had chased and slaughtered tens of thousands.

Li Yuanchang sneered: "Your Highness, Prince Wei, you dare to do it but not admit it?"

"I don't quite understand what Seventh Uncle means." Li Tai smiled, his expression clearly indicating that he understood.

boom!

Li Yuanchang suddenly grabbed Li Tai by the collar.

The guards were about to draw their swords.

Li Tai stretched out his hands to stop them: "Don't move, Seventh Uncle is just joking with me!"

Li Yuanchang's nose was almost touching Li Tai's forehead as he said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "You fatso, you've done too many bad things, you'll shorten your lifespan!"

The word "fatso" struck a nerve with Li Tai, and his usually refined and honest face suddenly contorted with rage.

"I have no idea what Seventh Uncle is talking about."

The two sides glared at each other fiercely, marking the first time in over a year since the brothel incident that they had completely broken off relations face-to-face.

"Just because I am at odds with you, you want to harm an innocent person? Don't you feel ashamed?" Li Yuanchang gritted his teeth, wishing he could punch this fat man to death.

However, he remained rational and did not take action, nor did he directly point out Li Su's affair, thus leaving Li Tai with a handle against him.

Otherwise, he would definitely get himself imprisoned, and once imprisoned, there would be no room for maneuver in Li Su's case.

"Since Seventh Uncle has put it this way, then I'll say no more. I'm here for you, so what can you do about it?"

"You dare hit me?" Li Tai provoked.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanchang raised his fist without hesitation, and the force of the punch was even unleashed.

The pupils of those around them widened in horror.

"don't want!!"

Li Tai was so frightened that he instinctively dodged, looking extremely disheveled.

But the next second, Li Yuanchang's fist did not fall; instead, he lightly patted Li Tai on the shoulder.

"King Wei, don't be afraid, your clothes are dirty," Li Yuanchang said with a mocking smile.

Li Tai's face instantly turned bright red.

"Do you think I would hit you?"

"Your little tricks might work on your elder brother, but they won't work on me."

"We'll see. One day you fatso will need my help! You've really messed up this time!"

Li Yuanchang uttered these harsh words, then turned and left decisively.

"Your Highness!"

"Get out of my way!" Li Tai, having suffered a loss, cursed his subordinates, then shouted at the departing Li Yuanchang, "I'll be waiting for you!!"

Li Yuanchang ignored them and walked away without anyone daring to stop him.

Li Tai was furious and wanted to order his men to take action several times, but he didn't dare!

Li Yuanchang is no longer someone Li Shimin can easily manipulate. If he dares to make a move, Li Shimin will investigate and the power Li Yuanchang has finally gained will soon be back down.

Moreover, his manpower might not be a match for Li Yuanchang's.

"..."

After leaving Furong Garden, Li Yuanchang did not display the impotent rage of a headless fly.

He went to the "Tiangongtai" immediately.

This was the place where he was framed, hunted by the Imperial Guards, and nearly lost his life. It was also Li Chunfeng's Taoist temple, used specifically for the Tang Dynasty to observe celestial phenomena at night.

Because of its unique nature, this place is almost entirely closed off, with hardly any guards or officials like those in the Three Departments, Six Ministries, and Nine Temples.

Li Yuanchang didn't know whether Li Chunfeng was still alive or not. For charlatans like him and Yuan Tiangang, wandering around was the norm.

Fortunately, the door was unlocked, and as soon as he entered, he encountered that god-like figure.

"Li Xiandao!"

He exclaimed and rushed into the palace as if seeing a savior.

Li Chunfeng, who was sitting on the ground studying ancient books, smiled amiably.

"Since morning, the magpies in this tree have been chirping incessantly. I anticipated that someone would come here, so I left the door open. I never expected it to be His Highness the Prince of Han." He stood up and bowed.

Li Yuanchang immediately returned the greeting with respect.

"Li Xiandao is too kind."

"Since our last parting, I haven't had a chance to visit you."

Li Chunfeng smiled and stroked his beard: "The Prince of Han is a very busy man. As the saying goes, he won't come to the Three Treasures Hall without a reason. If the Prince of Han has something to say, please speak frankly."

Li Yuanchang was embarrassed.

Seeing that the other party was getting straight to the point, he couldn't beat around the bush, as that would seem insincere.

"Li Xiandao, to be honest, I do have a request to make."

"If Li Xiandao is willing to help, I am willing to build ten Taoist temples in Liangzhou and will owe you a great favor!" Li Yuanchang said, cupping his hands in greeting.

Upon hearing this, Li Chunfeng smiled wryly: "Your Highness, you haven't gotten into some serious trouble again, have you?"

Li Yuanchang laughed and said, "No, no, no, it's not a disaster."

"This is a pipe dream for others, but for Li Xiandao, it's just a matter of talking."

"Oh, Your Highness, why don't you tell me?" Li Chunfeng said.

Li Yuanchang looked around and then said, "Could you, Immortal Li, perform a face reading for someone?"

"Who?"

"Princess Wencheng!"

Li Yuanchang blurted out, "But... after examining his face, Master Li has to say the worst!"

His eyes were serious, and he wasn't worried that Li Chunfeng would betray him. If he were going to betray him, he would have died long ago. That rescue was a life-or-death favor.

This was the most reliable method he could think of. All Li Chunfeng had to do was say something like, "This woman's mission to Tibet will harm the nation's fortune."

Then Li Shimin could immediately replace him, and Li Chunfeng's words would certainly carry enough weight to persuade the higher-ups.

Li Chunfeng did not answer upon hearing this, but pondered for a moment: "Your Highness, do you not want Princess Wencheng to go to Tibet?"

Li Yuanchang nodded: "I have a very close relationship with her, like brother and sister, and I don't want her life to be ruined."

"Your Highness, why do you think her departure will ruin her life?"

"This marriage alliance is a matter of national importance, and it can at least guarantee peace between the two countries for a century." Li Chunfeng said calmly. His wisdom was not just based on observing the celestial phenomena at night, but also on his experience in dealing with the world.
