Chapter 1503 Crying Spirit
"Are you asking me to restore the Northern Zhou Dynasty as an 8-year-old child? Although this sounds a bit outrageous, it seems to be the only feasible way. After all, the justice is still in my hands!" When Li Shimin woke up, Yuwen Chan's few and tiny memories directly poured into Li Shimin's brain, and it took Li Shimin a lot of time to absorb all these memories and understand his current situation.

It turned out that at this time Li Shimin had traveled through time and became Emperor Jing of Northern Zhou, Yuwen Chan, the unlucky child who ascended the throne at the age of 7, had his throne seized by his grandfather at the age of 8, and was poisoned to death a few months later.

Although history books only say that Yuwen Chan died suddenly, even a fool knows that he was poisoned by Yang Jian.

Directly poisoning an 8-year-old child is not an uncommon behavior among founding emperors throughout history. Wang Mang of the previous dynasty and Zhao Kuangyin of the later dynasty both snatched the throne from a child, but both of them basically treated the child well.

After Yang Jian killed Yuwen Chan, several of his great-grandsons were used as puppets by powerful officials to ascend to the throne. After they ascended the throne and became emperors, they were killed directly and decisively. This is the principle of tit for tat.

However, it was natural for Yang Jian to want to kill Yuwen Chan. Yang Jian had only usurped the throne for a few months. Even though he had spent a year eliminating dissidents in the court and basically killed all the powerful princes of the Yuwen family and completely controlled the army, the world was still the world of the Northern Zhou Dynasty after all. Many of the Northern Zhou were still there, and the world did not recognize the Mandate of Heaven for the Sui Dynasty.

If someone took Yuwen Chan away at this time and then used Yuwen Chan's name to rebel against Yang Jian, there would undoubtedly be a great chaos. After all, there was a rebellion by the Yuchi family not long ago. If Yuwen Chan was taken away by someone with ulterior motives, there would be another series of troubles.

Of course, if Yuwen Chan raised an army himself and killed Yang Jian directly, the effect would undoubtedly be the best. The entire Northern Zhou Dynasty would be back in Yuwen Chan's hands in an instant, but this seems impossible no matter how you think about it.

Now that Yang Jian has killed Yuwen Chan, Liu Xu can naturally arrange for Li Shimin to travel into Yuwen Chan's body.

At the same time, it also gave Li Shimin the most wise but also the most dangerous start.

The reason for this is that Yuwen Chan is the current master of the world. As long as Li Shimin finds a way to kill Yang Jian, the world will naturally fall into Li Shimin's hands.

The danger lies in that Yuwen Chan is only 8 years old now, and has just been poisoned to death. He is surrounded by guards who are guarding him. He is in a state of no chance of survival.

After making sure that there was no one around him, Li Shimin secretly opened his eyes and took a look. He found that he should be lying in a coffin. Hearing the hypocritical crying sounds coming from a distance, Li Shimin concluded that he should be in a state of mourning. After seven days, he would be hastily buried in the mausoleum and become a real dead person.

"In fact, now is my best chance!" Li Shimin said to himself in his heart, "Although Yang Jian said to the outside world that I died suddenly, anyone with a discerning eye would know that I was poisoned to death."

"If it was my unreliable father who was poisoned, I'm sure many people would applaud. But the one who was poisoned was an 8-year-old child who hadn't done anything evil. Everyone in Chang'an City should sympathize with me and be very dissatisfied with Yang Jian. This is actually my biggest advantage."

"If I can take this opportunity to kill Yang Jian and stabilize people's hearts, the world will be back in my hands. On the contrary, if I die for several years or even several months, even if I kill Yang Jian at that time, the entire Northern Zhou will become a mess again and will no longer obey my orders!"

“And now is the best opportunity to kill Yang Jian. His grandson, the emperor of the previous dynasty, is dead. So for the sake of drama, Yang Jian will certainly come up to cry at the grave in a hypocritical manner and shed a few tears in front of my spirit to appease people’s hearts, just like my father cried his heart out in front of Yang You’s spirit. The more ruthless a person is, the more drama he will put on!” “Then imagine that when Yang Jian runs to my coffin to cry at the grave, and then Yuwen Chan suddenly jumps out of the coffin and kills Yang Jian with one sword… By the way, at that time, all the civil and military officials in the court will surely accompany Yang Jian to cry at the grave. I will kill Yang Jian personally in front of all the civil and military officials in the court. The effect will be extraordinary!” Thinking of this, Li Shimin… Oh, no, it should be Yuwen Chan who showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.

If an outsider could see the expression of Yuwen Chan, who was already a corpse, at this time, he would be scared to death. However, except for a few palace maids who were specially arranged to pretend to cry at the grave, no one was interested in running to Yuwen Chan's coffin to observe his appearance.

"I don't know where the pharmacist and the others are. I wonder if they can come and help me!" Li Shimin muttered softly. Although he already had a complete plan in his mind, the risk level of this plan was hundreds of times more dangerous than the Xuanwu Gate incident back then.

The most fatal thing is that Yuwen Chan's body is only 8 years old, and Yang Jian is a martial artist. Even if Li Shimin uses the best time to attack Yang Jian, he may not be able to hurt Yang Jian.

"If only my cultivation was still there!" Li Shimin sighed. Before he traveled through time, he had at least reached the level of a human immortal. It would have been easy for him to kill a few hundred people. But after traveling through time and space to Yuwen Chan's body, he had no cultivation at all. He had to start all over again.

Just as Li Shimin was thinking about this, a voice suddenly came to his ear and asked, "How is your majesty?"

"Pharmacist! It's you!" Li Shimin's face lit up with joy. This was clearly Li Jing's voice.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to lie down. There is no one else around!" Li Jing continued. Li Shimin immediately sat up from the coffin and found that he was indeed in a mourning hall. The hall was surrounded by candles, and it was very bright even at night.

I could clearly hear the sound of crying at the grave just now, but how come there is no one in the entire mourning hall now?

No, it’s not that there was no one there at all. Li Jing was just looking at him with a smile.

"No... Pharmacist... why are you looking at me like that?" Li Shimin felt a little frightened by Li Jing's gaze.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. It's just that I never thought that one day Your Majesty would be so petite and cute. I can't help but feel excited!" Li Jing said with a smile. Li Shimin...Yuwen Chan's face immediately fell.

Alas, the original Li Jing would not have said such a witty remark in front of him. However, after staying in America for decades, he realized that he was descended from Liu Xu rather than Li Shimin. Although Li Shimin could still command all his former ministers, it was obviously impossible to expect them to still respect him as much as they respected the emperor.
