After Liu Yi went out, he did not leave immediately, but stood quietly outside the door for a while, but heard his mother's suppressed cry in the house, as well as a low cry, as if to comfort his deceased father.

Liu Yi and his family are busy and waiting for news.

After more than ten days, someone came to Liu's mansion to report the news that Liu Yi's uncle Liu Yanjing and others, as well as the eldest brother Liu Mai and the second brother Liu Yuan, had escorted the coffin of his father Liu Xianli, and under the escort of a sergeant, they were about to arrive in Chang'an.

This was the news from Li Yiyan, who had already returned to Chang'an, and Li Yiyan and Di Renjie escorted Li Jingxuan and some of his subordinates to Chang'an ahead of the convoy escorting Liu Xianli's coffin.

In mid-November, Liu Yanjing, Liu Mai, and Liu Yuan finally escorted Liu Xianli's coffin to Chang'an after nearly three months of departure.

Liu Yi saw his uncle Liu Yanjing, who was filial piety, and his two brothers who were filial piety, as well as the domestic servants who left together, all of whom were already haggard and insincere.

This way, the journey of nearly 3,000 miles, including countless twists and turns, and was detained by Li Jingxuan, Liu Yanjing's uncles and nephews were full of grief and indignation, after seeing Liu Yi and his party, several uncles and nephews together, knelt down in front of Liu Xianli's coffin and cried loudly.

Although Liu Yanjing, Liu Mai, and Liu Yuan have many twists and turns, but in general, it can be regarded as smooth and returned, Liu Yi saw his uncle and two brothers return safely, and he also let go of his hanging heart, but unfortunately, his father Liu Xianli died unexpectedly, Liu Yi was also sad, and together with the two uncles and two brothers, he cried loudly.

This cry has a kind of relief from the hardships of several months, and there is also the comfort of the grievances finally Zhaoxue, but the uncles and nephews don't have time, and they don't enjoy the narrative, so they rush to Chang'an City without stopping.

The imperial court sent the Huangmen squire, Gao Zhizhou, the three products under the Tongzhong Shumen, and Wei Xuan, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, as messengers, leading a large group of soldiers of the Left Guard, all with white filial piety belts tied to their heads, out of Chang'an City ten miles away, to welcome the coffin of the Tang Dynasty Ancient Ministry of Works, the general of the Left Guard, back to Beijing.

The grandeur of the welcoming ceremony was still unexpected by Liu Yi, and it was also unexpected by Liu Yanjing, Liu Mai, and Liu Yuan.

The unusual courtesy of the imperial court gave them a certain amount of psychological comfort, and the dust and hardships along the way seemed to be insignificant.

After Liu Xianli's coffin was transported back to the palace, the coffin given by the imperial court was also reinstalled and replaced with a new official robe.

Liu Yi is also the first time to see his father, but unfortunately, Liu Shenli's body is already unrecognizable, although in Shanzhou, the black tooth Changzhi once found a servant to replace Liu Xianli's plastic surgery, but Liu Yi, who had not seen Liu Shenli's appearance before, still couldn't feel that the deceased was his biological father.

Liu Xianli's body has countless wounds, half of his arms have been cut off, the blood in his body seems to have flowed clean, and his body looks thin, although the ice cubes have been added, the weather is also a little cold, but it is also a little rotten, emitting a foul smell, Zhang saw his husband looking so miserable, and cried again, which broke everyone's hearts.

Liu Yanjing, Liu Yansi and Liu Yi also cried together, and Liu Yanjing's four sons Liu Wenyu, Liu Chengyan, Liu Yao, and Liu Qi, who were all younger than Liu Yi, also came over to help Zhang Luo with some things.

After Liu Xianli's coffin was transported back to the house, it had to be suspended for a few days to accept the condolences of relatives and friends.

In the next few days, there was an endless stream of people who came to the house to mourn, because of the continuous running of uncle Liu Yanjing and the two eldest brothers in the past two months, they were already described as haggard and exhausted, and more often, Liu Yansi and Liu Yi accompanied these condolences and accepted their comfort.

To the surprise of Liu Yi and others in Liu's mansion, the day after Liu Xianli's body was transported back to Chang'an, a new edict was issued by the imperial court.

In this edict, Liu Xianli's exploits were described in more detail, and Liu Xianli was given the title of Shangzhu State, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and Ning Guogong, posthumously awarded the title of Governor of Luozhou, and Liu Xianli was given to accompany the burial of Qianling.

Although this is still a gift from Liu Xianli after his death, it can also be seen from the two posthumous gifts that are obviously not treated ordinarily, that the imperial court's evaluation of Liu Xianli's merits is already very different, and Li Zhi and Wu Zetian also showed an unusual attitude towards Liu Xianli's death, improved the posthumous gift specifications, and let Liu Xianli accompany the burial of Qianling.

Because Li Shimin obeyed the instructions of Empress Wende's eldest grandson before his death, he was buried in Jiuzhi Mountain after his death, and used Jiuzhi Mountain as the place to build the Zhao Mausoleum, creating a precedent for the emperor of the Tang Dynasty to use the mountain as a mausoleum. Liangshan, located in the north of Li Shimin's Zhaoling Mausoleum, was also selected by Li Zhi as his cemetery many years ago at the suggestion of Li Chunfeng, the Taishi Ling, and named Qianling by Li Zhi himself.

In the second year of Qianfeng, Li Jing's proud disciple, Pei Xingjian's mentor, pacified the Western Turks, Green Ridge, and Baekje with one person's merits, captured the three kingdoms, and made great achievements for the Tang Dynasty, Su Dingfang, a generation of famous generals, died of illness, and was given to be buried in Qianling, becoming the first famous minister to enjoy the burial of Qianling, Liu Xianli is the second minister to receive this honor, perhaps this can also be regarded as the imperial court's recognition and final evaluation of Liu Xianli's achievements.

Su Dingfang has experienced countless battles, basically undefeated, and most of the battles are won by less, his exploits have been recognized by everyone, it is not surprising that he can win this honor, but Liu Xianli, a defeated and dead general, also won this honor, which is still incomprehensible to some people, including some family members of Liu Fu.

Liu Yi doesn't know much about these posthumous gifts, and he doesn't know what Shangzhuguo, Kaifu Yi and the Three Divisions are, but he knows a little about the funeral courtesy, as well as posthumously awarded such as "Ningguo Gong" and "Luozhou Governor".

Originally, Liu Xianli was only a county duke, but this time he was posthumously awarded the national duke, and the level was much higher, and Liu Yi's eldest brother Liu Mai could inherit the title of his father, the duke.

There is also the "Governor of Luozhou", Luozhou is Luoyang, the eastern capital of the Tang Dynasty, although it is posthumously gifted, but there are many differences in posthumous gifts, the Governor of Luozhou, as well as the Governor of Luozhou, that is, the location of Taiyuan where Li Tang started, and only those who are in high positions and have great contributions to the country are eligible to be posthumously awarded.

Liu Yi is also speculating about the reason behind Ersheng's change of mind...
