Chapter 1277 funeral

The family of Qiubing Ke moved to America, and even his relatives and friends followed him. The only ones who were close to him and remained in the Tang Dynasty were Li Jing and Li Xiu. The news of Qiubing Ke's death was notified by Li Chengqian. In addition, there was another letter with Li Chengdao, which was Qiubing Ke's death document.

Reporting a death is the first ritual after a person dies, and it is said that this kind of etiquette has been formed during the Zhou Dynasty. Its main function is to tell all relatives and friends about the death of someone. Since the other party has already known the news, he still wants to report the death as a rule.

There are two documents for reporting the deeds, one for Li Xiu, and the other for Li Jing, and along with the documents for reporting the deeds, there is also a letter from Zhang Shiyi. This letter mainly describes some of the situations before the death of the bearded guest and some words left to Li Xiu before the death of the bearded guest.

Although the bearded guest and Li Xiu were not related by blood, he admired Li Xiu very much and even wanted to kidnap Li Xiu. So before he passed away, he left many last words for Li Xiu. However, the bearded guest may be old, and most of the last words were small things, many of which were related to his family or Li Xiu's family. For example, he hoped that Li Xiu would take care of Zhang Shiyi's family in the future, because although Zhang Shiyi has gone to America now, he will still return to the Tang Dynasty to live in the future.

In addition to the above, the Guest Beard left a sentence that made him very embarrassed, which was the document to report the demise. According to the rules, the document to report the demise must be delivered by his close nephew, but the Guest Beard had no relatives in the Tang Dynasty, so Li Xiu's document to report the demise was sent with Li Chengdao's letter, which was barely given to him by Li Chengdao.

However, the remaining document for reporting the deeds was given to Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu. When the bearded guest and Li Jing and his wife became brothers and sisters of different surnames, the three of them had a deep relationship. It can be said that Li Jing and his wife were one of the people he cared about the most in this world. It is precisely because of this that before he died, he hoped that his nephew would send his document for reporting the deeds to Li Jing's mansion, which would make it more formal.

Of course, now Li Xiu is the only one who can be regarded as his nephew by the Guest of the Tang Dynasty. So he actually wanted Li Xiu to send his death document to Li Jing. At the same time, this was also the Guest of the Guest of the Guest before his death, that was, he hoped that Li Xiu and Li Jing and his son could let go of their grudges and grudges. Even if they could not reconcile, they should not not interact like their enemies.

Li Xiu was also very clear about the idea of ​​the bearded guest, but he really didn't want to have any interaction with Li Jing. In fact, he had not visited Li Jing's house for almost twenty years. At most, he sent someone to give Hongfu Nu some gifts. Of course, Hongfu Nu also came to his house from time to time to visit, mainly to see Li Xiu's children. After all, most of her children are not in Chang'an, and she is older and likes children more and more. Therefore, the children of Li Xiu's family have been taken care of by Hongfu Nu, the grandmother.

However, Li Xiu respects Hong Fu Nu, which does not mean that he will respect Li Jing. In fact, he is actually a very revengeful person. Anyone who makes him hate him will be difficult to forgive him in the future. Therefore, he and Li Jing have not had any contact over the years. Even if they meet in the court, he will turn a blind eye to the other party. Of course, Li Jing's attitude towards Li Xiu is the same.

"This is the last wish left to you by the bearded guest. I think you will help him fulfill this wish. After all, apart from you, there is no other person who can help him send this document to report his demise." In the study, Mr. Ma took the document to report his demise and looked at it and said. Li Xiu took out the document to ask for his opinion. After careful consideration, he decided to persuade Li Xiu to send it himself. After all, he was at the age of knowing the destiny, and he could better understand the mood before his death.

When Li Xiu heard that Ma Ye advised him to send him off, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. In fact, it was nothing to send a document, but when he thought about meeting Li Jing, he felt very embarrassed because he didn't know what he could say to him.

"I know you can't forgive Li Jing, but I think you can think about it this way. Don't treat Li Jing as your father. I remember that the other party is over 70 years old this year, and I remember that Jin'er still learns military tactics with him. Even if he doesn't treat him as Jin'er's grandfather, he is also Jin'er's teacher. Moreover, he has no reservations about Jin'er, and even takes out the military tactics at the bottom of the box. Speaking of which, although there are many people who learn military tactics with Li Jing, the only one who can be called his true teachings is Jin'er." Seeing Li Xiu hesitant, Ma Ye spoke up and persuaded him again.

When Li Xiu heard Ma mention that Jin'er was learning military tactics with Li Jing, he finally nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll go tomorrow. Anyway, I'll just send a document. At worst, I'll say goodbye to him and I'll say goodbye!"

Seeing Li Xiu agreeing, Ma Master finally laughed and said loudly: "That's right. A man should have the courage to take it and let it go, otherwise what is the difference with a woman?"

Li Xiu also felt amused and laughed at Ma Ye’s praise. He just gave him a document, so why did he compare it with a woman?

Since he made the decision, Li Xiu no longer had to worry about this matter. Moreover, the document to report the demise has been sent for several days, so it would be unreasonable to stay with him. So early the next morning, Li Xiu asked someone to prepare a carriage and go to Chang'an to report the demise to Li Jing himself.

Li Jing's Duke of Wei's Mansion is located near the East City of Chang'an, not very close to the imperial city. Although Li Xiu closed his eyes and sat in the car along the way, he could still hear people discussing matters related to Li Chengqian from time to time on the street. Although the rebellion case of the East Palace has been sentenced and Du He and others have been executed, the aftermath of this matter has not disappeared, especially the fact that Li Chengqian did not die after the rebellion has attracted a lot of interest.

Thinking that Li Chengqian was about to leave Chang'an, Li Xiu felt a little empty, but he had done everything he should do. The only last thing he could do for Li Chengqian was to go and see him off by himself when he left Beijing.
