And in order to be afraid of Li Yuan's loneliness, he ordered Pei Lian, Xiao Yu, Chen Shuda, and the Ministry of Industry Shangshu Wushi Tong and others to accompany Li Yuan and play chess to relieve boredom. When the coffins of Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji were carried to their final destination, Sanyuan County, Guanzhong, next to the graves of Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji, it was the place where Li Yuan chose for himself to dedicate his mausoleum - Xianling.

The stone carvings of Xianling have a strong artistic style of the early Tang Dynasty and are precious material materials for studying the history of the Tang Dynasty. Li Jiancheng looked at Xianling, and his thoughts returned to the original time of the former Sui. At the beginning, the former Sui Emperor Yang Emperor Yang Guang went out to inspect and came to Sanyuan County. Seeing the green trees here, the feng shui is excellent, he ordered, here to enclose, in the future as their own auspicious land, to build their own mausoleum, who knows that they have not built a mausoleum, just stay in Jiangdu can not come back, and finally by Yu Wenhua and instructed the traitor to order Hu Xingda to hang it, this ambitious emperor, after his death did not even use a decent coffin, by Xiao Hou and the palace people to dismantle the bed board to make a small coffin, secretly buried in the Jiangdu Palace's Liuzhu Hall. Later, Chen Ling gathered the crowd to mourn for Yang Guangfa, prepared a guard of honor, and was buried under the stage of Wu Gong, and the mourning rod was sent to mourn, and he walked with a sense of mourning. After Li Yuan established the Tang Dynasty, he also took a fancy to this place, and due to the lack of money, manpower and financial resources, it was simple because of the ugliness, and Li Jiancheng thought of it at the original tomb address, and said with emotion in his heart - Yang Guang, you are also a generation of emperors, but you can't imagine that the auspicious land you chose is cheaper than others. This is also your hint to me, you can rest assured, I will help you complete the great work you have not completed. When the coffins of Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji arrived at the cemetery, Zhang Gongjin, Zhang Liang, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Cheng Yanjin, Qin Shubao, Xie Shufang and Xue Wanche carefully put the coffins of Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji into the grave, and Li Jiancheng took out his own memorial text:
"Jinyang raised troops, Longxi was in turmoil, the Central Plains was in chaos, the Central Plains was in chaos, and the Tang Dynasty was unified for me, a little thin, brothers were on the wall, brothers were fighting, and they were in the same room, sad, painful! I am a Tang Dynasty athlete, I should put the world first, I can't fight for personal interests, take the interests of the people, and don't take personal interests. As Li Jiancheng's subdued voice echoed in the graves of Li Yuanba and Li Yuanji, the civil officials present shed tears, even Qin Shubao and Zhang Liang under the command of King Qin Tiance's Mansion also shed tears. Cheng Yanjin looked at Qin Shubao and Zhang Liang and shed tears. asked Qin Shubao quietly.
"Brother Qin, I can't understand a word of what His Majesty said, why are you crying?" Qin Shubao said to Cheng Biting Jin with tears in his eyes:
"Bite the gold! Your Majesty's meaning is that we, as Tang Dynasty athletes, should not seek personal interests and strive for the interests of the people. I have heard for a long time that Your Majesty was able to write well and had a broad mind, but now, I, Qin Shubao, have discovered that Your Majesty is the master of today. After Li Jiancheng finished reading the memorial text, he turned to the civil and military officials present and said:
"Generals, the civil and military ministers of the court, I specially composed a song yesterday, and I will sing it to all the civil and military ministers today." The civil, military, and loyal ministers present were silent, and all the people did not speak.
"The wolf smoke rises, the rivers and mountains look north, the dragon rolls, the horse neighses, and the sword qi is like frost; The heart is like the water of the Yellow River, twenty years, between vertical and horizontal, who can resist; Hatred, where the long knife goes; How many siblings are buried in their bones; What a pity to die to repay the family and country, endure sighs, and be speechless, blood and tears are in your eyes, the horse's hooves go south, and people look north; People look north, the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying; I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory;
Dignified China wants to let the Quartet ...... Come to congratulate. The wolf smoke rises, and the rivers and mountains look north; The dragon rolls, the horse grows and hisses, and the sword aura is like frost; The heart is like the water of the Yellow River; Twenty years, between vertical and horizontal, who can resist; Hatred is mad, and the long knife is directed; How many siblings are buried in their bones; What a pity to die to repay the family and country; endure sighs, more speechless, blood and tears; The horseshoe goes south, and the man looks north; People look north, the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying; I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory; Dignified China wants to let the Quartet ...... Laiga; The horseshoe goes south, and the man looks north; People look north, the grass is green and yellow, and the dust is flying; I am willing to defend the territory and reopen the territory; Dignified China wants to let the Quartet ...... Come to congratulate. Li Jiancheng was full of neutrality, and his voice was high and frustrating. Everyone present who sang seemed to be infected, and everyone was moved by Li Jiancheng's lyrics. After Wei Zheng waited for Li Jiancheng to finish singing, he asked on the side:
"Your Majesty, what's the name of this song?"
"Serve the country with loyalty! You don't want to think about it, now the Turks are not far from the north of my Chang'an, the people in the north of my dynasty have been repeatedly poisoned by the Turks, thousands of people are plundered every year, and there are as many as 10,000 soldiers and people killed, Huayin County was slaughtered, and the Turkic army may come to Chang'an at any time, and you, as a Tang Dynasty athlete, should think about the suffering of the people in the northern border, think about the people who were slaughtered in Huayin County, from then on, this song will be used as the military song of my Tang Dynasty, every general, every soldier must be able to sing, and I will also build a Lingyan Pavilion in Chang'an at that time, dedicated to the soldiers who sacrificed their lives for our dynasty. Ladies and gentlemen, I am here to write a poem again, which is dedicated to all civil officials - why don't men take Wu hooks and collect Guanshan Fifty Prefectures. Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? I hope that all the civil and military ministers will strive for the peace of my Datang. I ask you, would you like to? Zhang Gongjin, Zhang Liang, Wei Chi Jingde, Niu Jinda, Cheng Yanjin, Qin Shubao, Shu Fang, Xue Wanche, Xiong Kuohai, Xue Li, Xu Kuoling, Wang Xiongdan, Xue Wanjun, Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanshu, Xue Wanbei, Su Dingfang and other military generals, Li Gang, Yu Zhining, Xu Jingzong, Wei Zheng, Di Zhixun, Di Renjie and other civil officials. shouted to Li Jiancheng together:
"Your Majesty, the ministers are willing to serve Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty!"

Please go to Lingyan Pavilion temporarily, if you are a scholar and a marquis? The two voices rise and fall, one wave higher than the other. At the same time, another pre-war mobilization was underway in Huayin County, and the Khan summoned all the tribal leaders and generals of the Turkic army and asked in a loud voice:
"Ladies and gentlemen, how are you doing in the last few days? You don't lose anything by following Ben Khan, right!? "The leaders of the Khitan, Jinya, Tiele, Xi, Xi, Xueyantuo and other tribes present were originally dissatisfied with the fact that the Khan forced them to invade the south, and forcibly took the strong men in the tribe and incorporated them into the Turkic headquarters, but after conquering Huayin County, the Khan allowed the Turkic army to plunder for three days, and the major tribes were full of money, and the dissatisfaction with the Khan slowly subsided a lot. The Khan continued:
"Chieftains, generals, now that you have finished resting, it's time to do something, you all follow Ben Khan and advance to Chang'an! Ben Khan got the exact news that Chang'an was empty, and now, with the saber in our hands, go to Chang'an, the capital of the Han people, to burn, kill, and rob! ”
"Yes!"
