Sending off the old man at the end of his life is a joy and mourning, and it will not be so sad in my heart.

Sending the general who was supposed to be in the prime of life to the end of his life can't help but make people feel a little embarrassed and sad.

Qin Qiong is the one who changed Sun Xiangfu's fate in this world, without him, perhaps, Sun Xiangfu, who accidentally appeared back then, would be easily killed by the Zheng family in Xingyang, or the people of the Wang family in Taiyuan.

obtained his protection, and then obtained Li Shimin's protection through him, Sun Xiangfu was able to survive in the era when the family dominated everything, so as to slowly accumulate strength, defeat the family, and create the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, Sun Xiangfu has always been grateful to Qin Qiong, and over the years, he has always treated him with the courtesy of a junior, which is one of the few people in this world who can have family sustenance.

Although along the way, Sun Xiangfu made many psychological preparations for his imminent death, but when he really saw him close his eyes and the whole person collapsed in the wheelchair, Sun Xiangfu's tears still couldn't stop slipping down from his eyes.

What is uglier than it is crying is Li Shimin, using words such as beating his chest and beating his feet, tearing his heart and lungs, etc., are not enough to describe, perhaps, he is crying to the ministers of the court, or the people of Chang'an City.

However, Sun Xiangfu prefers to believe that he is from the heart.

From so many years of interaction with Li Shimin, Sun Xiangfu can still see that he is a more emotional and nostalgic person, those who have helped him in difficult times, even if they have passed away for many years, they will be talked about by him, otherwise, there will be no Wei Zheng in history, and there will be no posthumous mausoleum after the death of Empress Changsun, who has to look at the palace wall for a while every day.

"Your Majesty, please set up a Lingyan Pavilion in the Imperial City Park, erect the statues of the meritorious ministers since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, and carve them into a tablet for future generations to admire."

The Lingyan Pavilion in history was built in the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, because Li Shimin remembered the heroes who fought the world with him earlier, but it was only a small building next to the Sanqing Hall in the palace, and it was not much atmosphere, and the common people could not touch it, it was a place for him to personally mourn his old friends.

Sun Xiangfu felt that in order to really highlight its value, it still needs to be done more generously, so that the whole people can feel that the court's preferential treatment of ministers like Qin Qiong who have made meritorious contributions to the country, without their bloody battles again and again, and the Tang Dynasty, there would be no today's beautiful era, and everything today is based on the foundation they laid in the southern and northern wars.

If, as in history, the portrait is made of paper, with the current technology of mounting and preservation, it may not be able to be maintained for a long time, so that future generations will not be able to see the original portrait at all.

However, if the stone carving is different, the good stone carving is selected, and the lacquer is protected, as long as it is not artificially destroyed, it can be easily preserved for thousands of years, and the original version has been used to better ensure that it is not distorted.

When Li Shimin heard Sun Xiangfu's proposal, he finally stopped crying, touched his tears and said, "Zhengming is here, it is in line with my wishes, and this matter will be handed over to Cheng Qian himself!" ”

For now, Sun Xiangfu's suggestion is to set up for the dead, so that for the living, it is also an incentive.

The deeds of his life will be carved on the stone tablet for future generations to admire, so that the living people will strive to make more achievements, and will pay more attention to their personal image, hoping that they can leave a good name in future generations.

However, at this moment, when Li Shimin was sad, Sun Xiangfu would not mention much, after sending Qin Qiong's body back to the Qin Mansion, there were naturally officials from the Imperial Court Rites Department who were responsible for the funeral and burial, after all, Qin Qiong was a prince, and all the funerals were responsible for the imperial court.

After Sun Xiangfu explained Qin Huaidao's treatment of people and things in the Qin Mansion, he went to the Yu Mansion, he did not let Yu Xiu'er go overseas with him before, so in the past two years, Yu Xiu'er was in Chang'an, and Zheng'er Bajing managed Taile Division, and Yu Shinan also passed away in her company.

Li Shimin gave Yu Shinan the nickname 'Wenyi', and gave the crown prince Shaobao, Jin Ziguanglu doctor, the Ministry of Rites Shangshu, Yongxing County Duke and many other official titles, at this time he passed away only more than ten days, and now, is using a sealed glass coffin, parked at home.

Now, this kind of pure transparent thick glass coffin is already the standard for the prince, it can let people see the appearance of the deceased, and let everyone know that those of them with status did not bring any funeral goods.

According to the burial rules of this period, the coffin will generally be placed for more than ten days, and a prince like Yu Shinan will even take several months, in addition to waiting for the auspicious day of the burial, but also for some relatives and students who have come from afar to mourn.

Sun Xiangfu, even through the coffin, saw Yu Shinan for the last time, its body was smeared with wax, it will not rot, and it can barely see the face, in this regard, the ancients have their own set of methods.

After reading his condolence, Sun Xiangfu discussed with his father-in-law Yu Chang how to write Yu Shinan's life achievements, so that he could enter the Lingyan Pavilion to carve a monument later.

As for Yu Shinan's handwritten letters before his death, Yu Xiu'er had already collected them all.

Later, she will find a way to frame it with more advanced technology, or rub it with a stone tablet to preserve the original as much as possible, and Sun Xiangfu has already communicated with her in this regard.

After three days of busy work in Yu Mansion and Qin Mansion, Sun Xiangfu entered the Daming Palace after the complete construction for the first time, as one of the designers of this palace, Sun Xiangfu was naturally familiar with his internal structure.

As for Li Shimin and his wife, they are basically by Li Yuan's side every day, although the Imperial Medical Department did not explicitly say Li Yuan's condition, but everyone knows that it should not be able to survive this winter.

For this old man who needs to use a syringe to eat, and has to watch various singing, dancing and drama performances in the playground all day long, Sun Xiangfu is also convinced.

If you want to say that anyone in this world has not lived in vain, Li Yuan is the first to be recommended.

Since he abdicated and became the emperor, he has enjoyed all the top entertainment projects that Datang can enjoy, and in more than ten years, he has been fortunate to have at least one or two hundred show girls, and the number of children is more than double that in history.

Of course, Li Shimin himself is not idle, just his son, in the past few years, he has given birth to more than 20 sons, which is also more than double that in history, anyway, in this era, there is no contraception, as long as both men and women function normally, they will always give birth.

Of course, this has also led to the emergence of a new phenomenon, that is, the prince of the Tang Dynasty is worthless.

In the past, when those princes were adults, they could at least be awarded a state assassin history, but now they won't, because the state assassin history of the Tang Dynasty is also very valuable, especially in the Central Plains, which can manage tens of thousands of households in the middle and upper states.

Therefore, now, these princes can at most hang the name of a state assassin history, or even the name of the governor's history, because of the status of the mother concubine, whether they can grasp the real power to take office, it depends on the ability, as for those who have the lowest status of the mother concubine, they are only crowned as the king, and they will not be awarded the official position directly.

They have to go to school like ordinary people, and with their academic performance and the work ability reflected in the internship, they can fight for their own positions, they can become officials, they can also be technical researchers, and even go directly to business and open up industries, and the royal family will not give them anything else except to provide them with a good education and a relatively high-quality living guarantee.

At present, in the court, there are only two princes who can be recognized by the courtiers in terms of ability, one is Li Tai, the governor of Lingnan Province, King Wei, and the other is Li Ke, King Wu, the governor of Shannan Province.

They are now all in Chang'an to receive their posts, and moreover, they also hold the title of Pingzhang Affairs in the Political Affairs Hall and participate in the decision-making of national political secrets.

The rest of the princes who studied and planted rice in Shannan Province, and then became adults, such as the earliest Li Yuanjing, Li Yuanchang and others, all had some transfers, and the best one was only the history of Shangzhou Thorn.

Therefore, when Sun Xiangfu came to the East Palace, he was greeted by the three brothers Li Chengqian, Li Tai, and Li Ke.

After the ceremony, Sun Xiangfu didn't talk to the three of them much, and went directly to Li Chengqian's study to sit down and talk about things, first of all, Li Chengqian talked about the scale of the construction of Lingyan Pavilion, and the list he drew up after he finally asked Li Shimin.

These things are basically not much difficult for the current Tang Dynasty, and Yan Lide, who has seen these people, Yan Liben brothers, first painted the most heroic portraits of the deceased ministers in their prime with a relatively three-dimensional image, and then let the carver carve according to the proportions, and finally paint and color it.

As for the deeds of his life, and merits, there will be the descendants of these ministers, the court officials, and the Ministry of Rites, according to the previous examination books, to finally draw up, and find Chu Suiliang and other people to carve the monument, of course, a little artistic processing, and the emperor's praise, there are also there.

Soon, the topic turned to political affairs, Li Chengqian said, "My father plans to merge the entire South Asian region into the Tang Dynasty next year, and at the same time start to settle accounts with Persia, they now have nothing to mortgage to our Datang, and a final decision must be made."

However, in this way, our Datang will face more than 30 million relatively poor new population, as well as nearly 200 million bad debts, and at the same time, it will also face the Great Food and the Byzantine Empire.

After a trip from overseas, the teacher has a better understanding of all aspects, can he teach me? ”

In five years, the small kingdoms from Central Asia to West Asia were basically absorbed by the Tang Dynasty, and after the destruction of Tianzhu and Persia, the only nomadic empire was Byzantium and the Tang Dynasty.

Datang is a tiger that no one dares to mess with, Da Shi is a wolf who is forever hungry, and Byzantium is more like a dog that has been forced into a corner, it will bite people, but his two enemies are not something he can bite.

As the only nomadic religious regime in the world that has paid off the arrears of the Tang Dynasty, Dashi has been selected by the Tang Dynasty as the goal of the ultimate war, which is determined by its national characteristics, and the Tang Dynasty does not allow their fanatical religious beliefs and invasion and robbery of national culture to exist.

Therefore, more than a year ago, Sun Xiangfu went to sea, in fact, it was also a comprehensive examination of the feasibility of the Tang Dynasty being incorporated into South Asia, as well as part of the territory of West Asia, and launching the ultimate war with Dashi and Byzantium.

"The development of Tammo Tao is very good, it is no less than the state road in the Central Plains a few years ago, and the followers of Master Xuanzang are now all over the South Asian region, and they have accepted the new philosophy of Buddhism with people in front of people over the years, and they are also working hard to learn Han culture.

Especially in the southern coastal areas of many kingdoms that confront Tianzhu, their various domestic sects, in the past few years in hundreds of debate conferences, all lost to Xuanzang, its domestic people, now more respect Xuanzang's Buddhist philosophy, have the will to merge into my Tang Dynasty, once we allow the merger, then adjacent to it, also by Xuanzang's preaching of the new Buddhist philosophy of Tianzhu, will inevitably be in chaos.

For their own people had long since coveted the prosperity of the people of Tanmo, and had ceased to follow the religion of their own country, which had been exploiting them in order to support the rule of the King of the Sun.

As long as they are in chaos, we can use the reason of peacekeeping or recovering arrears to enter Tianzhu.

Because, after the death of the mother, Tianzhu has long been impoverished because of the large outflow of rich and young productive forces, even if we don't urge the king of the day to pay back, he can't afford to fight at all, can't calm the chaos, as long as our army actually controls Tianzhu, the king of the sun can basically be sent to Chang'an to be a rich man at home. ”

Xuanzang in history is fighting alone, and his earth-shattering talent amazes the whole world.

The current Xuanzang is not fighting alone, he has the Tang Dynasty behind him, and Liu Hongji, the general manager of Tammo Dao, who will give whatever resources he wants.

Therefore, his light shines even more brightly than in history, and he perfectly helped Datang to complete the grand strategic layout.

In Buddhism, this can be regarded as a great merit for him, because with his existence, I don't know how many fewer people died in the entire South Asian region.

When Sun Xiangfu met him in Tanmodao, he talked with him a lot, and in the future, Datang's control over the entire South Asian region, where religious beliefs are more widespread, will rely on him to a greater extent.

Because, after listening to the new Buddhist philosophy he preached, Sun Xiangfu can basically conclude that it is harmless.

This is a set of philosophical systems that call for people-oriented, guide people's hearts to goodness, strengthen their hearts, resist fear, and look at beliefs rationally.
