Time suddenly stood still on the third day of the eighth month. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Luo Yan has done everything he can. These days, the money spent on the purchase of all kinds of rare medicinal materials alone has completely left Luo Yan's mansion with no money to spare.

But spending some money is also a trivial matter, after all, there is no money, and you can still earn it.

It's just that the medicinal materials have been collected for a full four months, but Luo Yan's ability can only maintain Old Master Lu to persist until now. For three months and fifteen days, every day Luo Yan regarded it as fighting for his life with God.

In fact, he has been snatching back more than ten days longer than the system expected. However, the number of days is like this, and he can maintain it until now, and he finally can't do anything.

When the hand that diagnosed the pulse was withdrawn from Lu Deming's wrist, Luo Yan was so powerless and ashamed. When he met Lu Dunxin's expectant eyes, Luo Yan's eyes flickered a little, and then he slowly lowered his head.

There are no words at this time.

But there are often some actions that can be more shocking, such as at this time. Slowly bowed his head, but Lu Dunxin's eyes changed from full of expectations to disappointment. Then all kinds of emotions melted into the tears that slowly left behind with the eyes that gradually turned red.

Words are like swords, and only words kill people's hearts. Now no words are better than words, and he stares at his eyebrows and crushes his liver and intestines.

Lu Dunxin sobbed in a low voice. And Luo Yan looked back at Lu Deming, who was still asleep, but he couldn't say anything, and he couldn't make any moves.

Perhaps it was Lu Dunxin's sobbing voice that woke up the old master, opened his eyes slightly, and looked at the two people standing in front of his bed, Lu Deming smiled reluctantly: "Okay, don't cry." We are the adversaries of heaven and earth, and the passers-by of the world. There will always be a day when it will be done. It's a little bad to be a little bit of a little daughter. My generation studied poetry and books, and when I knew life, I also had a career. Come in, go to my study, and in the fifth compartment of the third row of the bookshelf, you can get the letter that is sandwiched in the Analects. ”

The old master has been sleeping in bed for many days, and now when he wakes up, his mind is so sharp, Lu Dunxin doesn't know, can Luo Yan still not know? When he was dying, he returned to the light, and this was the time.

Without delay, Luo Yan hurriedly got up and ran towards the study. Even if there is no time to cry, who can know how long the old master can support it. If he missed the last meeting with the old master, Luo Yan would not forgive himself until he died.

Hurriedly taking the letter out of the book and checking it again, Luo Yan hurriedly returned to Lu Deming's bedroom. After Luo Yan opened the door, Lu Deming's father and son were already waiting there.

Respectfully handing the letter to Lu Deming, Luo Yan knelt down at the head of the bed just like Lu Dunxin.

Lu Deming did not open the letter, but nodded and said to Luo Yan: "I wrote this letter for my teacher, I am afraid of old age, in case you can't wait for one day, but you don't have time to explain." Now that you are both by your side, this letter has lost its meaning. All my life, I've been admonishing. There is no wealth left to the children and grandchildren, and the only one who passes it on is a righteous spirit and half a house of poetry and books. Although Dunxin is old, he is talented and stupid, but my Lu family can't break the inheritance because of this, so I'll leave these things to you. ”

Regardless of Lu Dunxin, who was still crying, Lu Deming continued: "Come in, I have nothing to leave for you, so I will hand over my life's work to you." There was a large chest in the study, which contained all the information I had gained from my years of studying the scriptures. The teacher hopes that you can pass it on for me. ”

After Lu Deming finished explaining, he looked at Luo Yan and nodded, and then let go of Luo Yan's hand. He smiled again, and then slowly closed his eyes.

After a breath, two cries of grief were heard from the bedroom.

The obituary was written by Luo Yan himself. At the same time, Lu Dunxin also began to arrange for his subordinates to decorate the mansion.

Considering that Lu Deming will return to his roots and be buried in his hometown of Wu County in the future, he will only carry out a three-day mourning in the capital, and then he will quickly arrive in Suzhou along the waterway, and then carry out the next ritual in Suzhou until the funeral.

Time is pressing, but there is preparation in advance, so this is not rushed. The arrangement was carried out in an orderly manner, and at the same time, the news of Lu Deming's return to heaven quickly spread throughout Chang'an.

For Shilin, Lu Deming is a well-known big man. For civilians, Lu Deming is an unknown little person who will never enter the gossip. But there is a Luo Yan mixed here, so in an instant, the little person has become a big man.

People know that Cheng Guogong, who was dedicated to causing trouble before, his teacher has returned to heaven. I don't even know the name, but this is how it spreads. Huang Zhong destroyed the clay kettle and thundered, this is a kind of sadness that comes out of Luo Yan's heart now.

After a busy day, the funeral has been done.

Just waiting for the auspicious time of the next day, Lu Deming will be carried into the coffin, and then sent to the mourning hall to welcome the relatives and friends who have mourned.

Luo Yan has always adhered to the principle of respecting his master as his father, even if Lu Dunxin asked him to go to be a servant, he did not agree. There are only two elders in this world who can really be good for him. Lu Deming is worthy of being a filial son and grandson.

It is not as lively as when Li Shen, the king of Huai'an, passed through the world. After all, Lu Deming is just a doctor of Guozixue who is a sixth-grade person, and according to the laws of the court, only officials above the fifth-grade level will receive the emperor's decree to lead hundreds of officials to mourn after his death. For those with more than three grades, all states and counties should also be hanging.

As for the five grades, there are more officials like this in the world, and they are all like this, so won't the officials be tired to death.

When the red glow dyes all over the East, a new day comes. From the gate to the courtyard, from the courtyard to the house, the Lu Mansion was very calm, telling everyone passing by that there was a new mourning here.

When he got up and hurriedly ate something, Luo Yan came to Lu Deming's mourning hall wearing a filial piety suit. Kneeling down in front of the coffin and burning a few hangs of paper money, he respectfully kowtowed three times and knelt on the side of the coffin.

Within half a moment, Lu Dunxin also came over. Looking at Luo Yan, who was already kneeling there, Lu Dunxin couldn't persuade him anymore, so he did it carefully according to Luo Yan's approach, and then knelt opposite Luo Yan.

Lu Deming's family members are basically in Jiangnan, and now in Chang'an, Lu Dunxin and a group of old servants are there. Therefore, whether it is out of façade support or completely recognizing Luo Yan's identity, Lu Dunxin has no objection to Luo Yan doing this.

As for the original said good minister, he could only find Lu Dunxin's friend to do it.

At the beginning of the morning, the Lu Mansion welcomed its first guest.

Kong Yingda can be said to be the closest colleague of Old Master Lu. At the same time, the two served as teaching assistants at Guozi School, and at the same time served as bachelors at the Literature Museum, and at the same time taught the crown prince Li Chengqian. The friendship that has been passed down over the years is not something that ordinary people can understand.

Kong Yingda came in with a smile.

If it were an ordinary person, Luo Yan would have beaten him out with a mess. But Kong Yingda is different.

"Old friend, now that you have returned to heaven and earth, I am afraid that it will not be long before I will accompany you. I have known each other for many years, and I think you must be smiling and leaving. Also, my generation of scholars, you have done what you have asked for all your life. It's been a good journey, and I've laid a few glasses of good wine at home, and I'll see you off. ”

Although there was a smile on his mouth, his voice was so sad. After finishing speaking, Kong Yingda walked to the spirit and put on a stick of incense, and then walked up to Lu Dunxin and said, "If there is any difficulty in the future, just come to me." Although I am a small official, old man, I will try my best to help you with your affairs. ”

Lu Dunxin kowtowed to Kong Yingda, but he was speechless crying. It is enough to have such a promise.

After comforting Lu Dunxin, Kong Yingda walked to Luo Yan's side again, looked at Luo Yan's calm face, and praised with relief: "You kid, it's really good." Lao Lu has learned all his life, and I am confident that I am no worse than him, but I have accepted more than 20 disciples, and I can't stand up to you. ”

"Dr. Kong praised it falsely." Luo Yan also kowtowed to Kong Yingda, but never spoke again.

Seeing that one of the two people in the hall was crying and the other was serious, Kong Yingda nodded and stepped aside to calm the scene for the two.

It didn't take half an hour, but all the bachelors who had stayed in the Literature Museum came to mourn Lu Deming one by one. Seeing Luo Yan kneeling there, although he was a little surprised, after thinking about it, he was happy for Lu Deming one by one.

A short day was spent in Lu Deming's former colleagues coming to visit.

The next day, some more people came. Some are for Lu Deming's literary name, some are for Luo Yan's face, and some are for his previous favors. Plain and tasteless, Luo Yan didn't remember how many heads he kowtowed, and expressed his gratitude to the guests.

The real orgasm comes on the third day.

Li Shimin naturally would not mourn for this little doctor, but as a student of Lu Deming, the crown prince Li Chengqian could not help but come.

Early in the morning of the third day, Luo Yan knelt in front of the spirit for an unknown amount of time. I just felt that the sun had not yet come out, and there was a little light in front of the spirit, and then there was gradually some noise in the house. Then, when the sun was shining all over the mourning hall, there was a burst of people shouting and neighing on the street, and when it was quiet after a while, the voice of the minister shouting for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come to pay his respects was heard.

Luo Yan nodded darkly. The royal family finally didn't forget about it.

Today, Li Chengqian is a 15-year-old boy, and as he has been in contact with the government for nearly a year, he has slowly accumulated a lot of majesty. Now that I see it, they are completely different from the two people who were pressed by themselves to farm in Wannian County.

Walking into the mourning hall and seeing a group of people kneeling at his feet, Li Chengqian did not let them get up first. Pick up a stick of incense, put it on the candle and light it, then bow three times, insert the incense burner, and then turn around and sigh: "Get up." ”

Everyone else got up, and only Lu Dunxin and Luo Yan were still kneeling in the hall.

After comforting Lu Dunxin for a few words, Li Chengqian walked in front of Luo Yan: "I was taught by Chengguo Gong that day, and I knew that I was suffering from life. I don't want you and me to really speak again, it's actually in front of the teacher's mourning hall. ”

"In the past, all kinds of things were arrogant and arrogant. It is a blessing for the teacher that the prince can come. Luo Yan thanked again. ”

"Alright. Cheng Guogong, who was entrusted by his father to come this time, is not only to mourn for the teacher. I also want to tell you that if you figure it out, go back. After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he didn't wait for Luo Yan to answer anything, and turned around and left. (To be continued.) )
