Li Shimin had already entered his dying moment, but when he heard Li Xiu's words, he opened his eyes wide and stared at him incredible. If Li Xiu had said directly that he had been from more than a thousand years later, it would probably be difficult to understand. However, when he took the Tang people traveling to the Qin Dynasty as an example, Li Shimin naturally understood his origins at once.

"This... how is this possible? How did you... how did you do it?" Li Shimin was too shocked at this time, and there was no idea where he could come out of his body. He supported his hands and sat up.

"I don't know that I passed away more than a thousand years later due to overwork. When I woke up again, I became Li Xiu of the Tang Dynasty." Li Xiu smiled bitterly at this time. He still didn't understand how he traveled through time, so naturally he could not answer.

"No wonder...no wonder when I first saw you, I felt that you didn't look like a young man. It turned out...it turned out that you had lived for two lives!" When Li Shimin said this, a strong divine light suddenly burst out from his eyes, and then stared at Li Xiu and said again, "You died in your previous life and became another one after you woke up. So does it mean that if I die now, I may become another one?"

"This..." Li Xiu didn't expect that Li Shimin would have such a strange association, but he thought about it carefully and replied, "Theoretically, there is indeed such a possibility!"

"Hahahaha~, it's interesting, really interesting!" Li Shimin couldn't help but burst into laughter when he heard Li Xiu's words. For a dying person, there was no more encouragement to him than the news that he might live in a second life after death, and even made him look forward to death.

Seeing Li Shimin's excited appearance, Li Xiu didn't know how to explain it. Although he did travel time after death, he couldn't guarantee that Li Shimin could travel time after death. After all, if anyone could travel time after death, wouldn't there be time travelers everywhere? So many travelers who think they are the protagonists come together, I'm afraid the world will be in chaos.

However, just when Li Xiu was struggling, he suddenly felt something was wrong, because Li Shimin's laughter was getting lower and lower, and his breath became more and more messy. Finally, while he was sitting, his whole body suddenly became soft and he fell on the bed. His face was still smiling, but his chest had stopped rising and falling.

"Your Majesty~" Li Xiu watched Li Shimin fall down. He reached out to test his breathing and pulse in disbelief. He found that Li Shimin had left, which made him sigh and tears suddenly burst out.

But now is not the time to be sad. Li Xiu stood up and walked outside the hall. He saw Li Zhi, Changsun Wuji and others standing here. When he saw him coming out, Li Zhi rushed forward and asked, "Sir, Father, he..."

"Your Majesty has passed away!" Li Xiu said in dismay at this time. As soon as he said his words, Li Zhi was as if he was struck by lightning, and the ministers below cried in a burst of tears. Then the entire Cuiwei Palace was immersed in a sad atmosphere.

"Father~" When Li Zhi reacted, he rushed into the hall with a cry of grief. Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji were worried about something he had to do, so he hurriedly followed him in. As a result, Li Zhi knelt in front of Li Shimin's bed and cried bitterly. No matter how the two of them persuaded him, he was unwilling to stand up.

Finally, he finally waited until Li Zhi was tired of crying, and then stood up with the help of Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji. However, when he saw Li Shimin's peaceful face, he still couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Sir, uncle, I am very sad now. I really can't handle the matter. I will leave the funeral to you!" Li Zhi held back his grief and said to Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji that Li Shimin's funeral needs to be handled by important officials, and Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji are the most suitable candidates.

"Don't worry, the funeral will be left to me and the prince-consort. However, the most urgent task is not the funeral of Your Majesty, but the prince is going to hold a ceremony to ascend the throne. After all, the country cannot be without a king for a day!" Changsun Wuji advised again at this time. According to the etiquette of the Tang Dynasty, after the emperor passed away, the first thing he did was not to handle the funeral, but to let the new emperor ascend the throne, so as to stabilize people's hearts and avoid any recurrence due to the throne.

"I have no intention of ascending the throne after my father passed away?" Li Zhi said with tears at this time. What he said was the truth. Now he was full of grief and did not have the intention to ascend the throne.

"Crown Prince, everything must be the priority. Only when you ascend the throne can the Tang Dynasty stabilize and Your Majesty can leave more at ease!" Li Xiu also persuaded at this time. Now is not the time to act emotionally. No matter how sad it is, he must finish it in advance.

Seeing that even Li Xiu said this, Li Zhi finally nodded and said, "Okay, since that's the case, then summon the Minister of Rites to come in and discuss the matter of holding the throne ceremony tomorrow. In addition, the funeral cannot be delayed. Please worry, sir and uncle!"

When Li Zhi spoke at the end, tears couldn't help but flow out again. He was a person who values ​​feelings, which was his strength and his weakness. Moreover, compared to Li Shimin, he sometimes couldn't control his feelings and became emotional, which was not a good thing for an emperor.

"Don't worry, Prince, we can handle Your Majesty's funeral. You should prepare for the throne first!" Changsun Wuji spoke again. He was actually very sad at this time, but he was a person who was very good at controlling his emotions. He was very similar to Li Shimin.

Li Zhi nodded, and then asked someone to summon the Minister of Rites to discuss the throne. Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji began to deal with Li Shimin's funeral. In fact, these things had already begun to be prepared as early as when Li Shimin was seriously ill, such as the coffin was ready, so he didn't seem panic.

"Your Majesty smiled when he left, so he should leave very peacefully!" Changsun Wuji suddenly asked Li Xiu when he was cleaning Li Shimin's body and putting on the crown of the emperor.

According to etiquette, the deceased must change his clothes as soon as possible after his death. This is because the deceased will soon become stiff and cannot wear clothes at all after his death. Moreover, the elders or relatives and friends of the tribe must be able to dress for the deceased. Therefore, Li Xiu and Changsun Wuji do this in person, and the others are driven out.

"Your Majesty left with a big laugh!" Li Xiu nodded immediately.

"We also heard Your Majesty's laughter outside the hall, but what made me very curious is what you said to Your Majesty in the end, which made Your Majesty so happy?" Changsun Wuji asked Li Xiu again while tying a jade belt for Li Shimin.
