After passing the Suzaku Gate and continuing forward, the car will drive out of Chang'an from the Jinguang Gate, and finally arrive at the Xianling Mausoleum, which has been built for three years.

His old friend, Emperor Taishang Li Yuan, has not shown up, but he has been drunk in the palace.

......

Offering the mausoleum, the young man who presided over the funeral was the family of the deceased emperor, the kind that had nothing to do with the eight poles.

However, the appearance of this young eunuch named Li Chunfeng in Qintian was the end of the funeral of the three divisions of the prince's opening ceremony.

Li Gang's tomb is arranged in the second left position of the burial chamber.

The first one on the left is the Zhongshu Ling Pei Lin in the Wude period, and the first one on the right is Qu Tutong.

It is worth mentioning that the second position from the right is Yin Kaishan, who died young.

It can be seen from this that the arrangement of the left and the right is the same.

The sacrificial text was recited by Yan Silu!

The black Confucian students, students and parents behind them, they talked about hanging at the bottom of their heads, which was a silent mourning, and they were sending the last journey for Hongru, the teacher, and the child's teacher.

A rather ancient style of sacrificial texts is very gorgeous, but Tang Heshang only feels that this sacrificial text is not enough to praise Li Gang's achievements.

From the former Sui Dynasty, the teacher of the crown prince Yang Yong, the teacher of the hidden prince Li Jiancheng during the Wude period, and the teacher of the prince Li Chengqian during the Zhenguan period.

Three times the prince and young master, how many people have been compared throughout the ages?

What's more, Li Gang served as the mountain chief of Chang'an College! Who would dare to say that he has taught 1,000 students a year?

From ancient times to the present, I am afraid that the Confucian sage who served as a sacrificial wine three times in the palace of Qi Guojixia, and even the saints of that era have not been like this, right?

The most important thing is that the spirit of the deceased old man who did not hesitate to cover for the Tang River for the sake of this era, as well as the spirit of being willing to push through the old and bring forth the new, how many people can there be in the world?

This is not Donald Laosi's boasting, but what Li Gang is really doing.

Just like what Tang He said when he begged Li Gang to accept him as an apprentice, if it weren't for Li Gang standing in the school, Chang'an College on Tang River would definitely have more resistance.

If Li Gang hadn't borne the burden on the Tang River, the name he was born to know would definitely fall on the head of the Tang River.

Immortals teach?

That's!

The self-proclaimed emperor of heaven allowed a second immortal chosen person in this world?

After the recitation of the sacrificial text, the last item is to enter the earth for peace!

According to Tang custom, before entering the earth, relatives must open the coffin to see the last side of the deceased.

Tang Heshang didn't dare to step forward, after all, he was just a disciple.

Li Liyan glanced at the Tang River, exhaled deeply and said, "Shiro, come up with it!" You are my father's most proud disciple, no different from my son-in-law! ”

"No!"

Tang He bowed down and agreed, and followed the two senior brothers to push the coffin open a gap.

After that, it's time to close the coffin!

The brothers Li Shaozhi and Li Liyan took the mallet and wood ding in Li Chunfeng's hand, and fixed the hole in the coffin that had been reserved for a long time.

In the end, the two senior brothers did not forget to let the Tang River nail three wooden dings.

Don't underestimate these three wooden sticks, this is the same as looking at Li Gang's last glance, it is the treatment of a son-in-law!

According to the eldest son, the eldest son has nine nails, the second son has six nails, and the third son and the subsequent ones have three nails.

It indicates the Confucian concept of orderliness and elder brotherhood.

On the Tang River, he took the wooden mallet and wood ding, solemnly nailed the wooden nail into it, and there were only two links left in the soil - burial and erection of the monument!

When it was buried, it was still the three Tang He brothers who held the soil one by one, and then they were completely buried.

The burial was very slow, but the three Tang He brothers felt that it was very fast, and they wished they could do it more slowly, so that they could take another look at their deceased father and teacher!

Finally, under the burial of the soil, there was no longer a trace of the paint color of the coffin, and Li Shaozhi, Li Liyan, and Tang Heshang raised and swung up, and fell to the ground at once.

At this moment, Father/Teacher, is really gone.

As long as the tombstone is erected and Li Gang's life is engraved on the stone, the entire funeral will be over.

In addition to the first seven, only when worshipping ancestors at the end of the Qingming Festival and the end of the year, the three brothers will have the opportunity to come to this cold stone to remember.

"Two Mr. Li, Tangshan Chief!"

Li Chengqian took several deep breaths, raised his courage and said, "Can my younger brothers and I help Master Li support the monument?" ”

Tang Heshang did not speak, but set his eyes on the two brothers Li Shaozhi and Li Liyan.

How much honor is it for the prince to support the monument?

What's more, the crown prince and the emperor's two favorite princes jointly supported the monument to their father?

Li Shaozhi bowed to the three brothers of Li Chengqian and thanked him: "Thank you to the prince, thank you to the king of Shu and the king of Yue!" ”

The three brothers Li Chengqian hurriedly replied: "This is the right thing!" ”

As the elder brother, Li Chengqian once again bowed his hand and said: "Two gentlemen, in his old age, Master Li is still willing to enter the East Palace to teach the studies of Gu and his brothers and sisters, and I sincerely thank you." I can't thank you two gentlemen! On the contrary, the three lonely brothers want to thank the two gentlemen for giving us a chance to repay Master Li a little! ”

"The crown prince is benevolent, and the two highnesses are benevolent!"

Li Shaozhi and Li Liyan returned the salute, gave up their positions, and then stretched out their hands to make a petition.

After that, six people and six hands put themselves on Li Gang's tombstone together!

After burying the soil, tamping it, and after completing this process, Li Chunfeng finally announced the end of the funeral.

Only then did the Confucian students begin to walk back, and one by one the parents also left one after another.

The teachers who took all the students of Chang'an College turned back step by step and walked a long way.

Tang Heshang, Li Shaozhi, and Li Liyan turned back one step at a time!

The old emperor's body finally came to an end, the emperor saw it, the emperor was drunk, the queen knelt down, the concubines knelt down, the opening ceremony was with the three divisions, the "Zhen", the burial of the imperial mausoleum, the prince's stele, the Confucian students, the students, and the hundred letters!

These are all honors that Li Gang has earned in exchange for his life.

When the official funeral of Li Gang was completed, a figure wearing a Confucian robe turned over and rode to the outside of Chang'an City.

The next day, the hundred officials entered the imperial city according to the previous practice and walked to the gate of the Taiji Palace, but were stopped by the old eunuch: "Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday the crown prince and young master opened the funeral ceremony with the third division Li Gang, Your Majesty was very sad, and decided to strike one day to send Master Li to drive the crane." ”

No one blamed the emperor for not saying a word to everyone and running empty.

On the contrary, such an emperor, the human touch revealed at this moment is what the officials are sincerely happy about.

Many people made an appointment to go to the tomb in the drizzle next month to sweep the tomb of the old emperor!

It was also at this time that the closed disciples of the Emperor Master, who had rested for a night, the road supervisor and the young craftsman, the admiral of the inspection school, and the Botang River in Wu'an County, once again entered the Zuo Wuwei training ground after nearly a month!

After watching the training with a cold eye, Tang Heshang only spit out two words: "Assemble!" ”
