In the Tang Dynasty, the death of officials of the third rank and above is called death, the death of officials of the fifth rank and above is called death, and the death of officials from the sixth rank and below to the common people.
There are strict regulations on cemetery specifications, coffins, burials, shrouds and mourning clothes.
For Du Ruhui's funeral, Hong Luqing was responsible for the guardianship of the funeral, and the master of ceremonies ordered the etiquette system, and the specifications were comparable to those of princes.
So when Li Wangyou rushed back, Du Ruhui's coffin hadn't been buried yet, it was still in the mansion.
The news that Li Wangyou, the Duke of Hu County, who had disappeared for several months, had returned to Chang'an spread instantly inside and outside the Du Mansion, and the guests who came to express their condolences all looked sideways.
He also didn't care about greeting the familiar guests, and rushed straight to Du Ruhui's mortuary, preparing to pay homage to this venerable elder.
But before Li Wangyou entered the mortal room, he saw several people rushing out of the mortal room, they were the two brothers Du He and Du Gou in mourning clothes, and a group of dudes following behind.
Li Wangyou was about to say something to comfort the two brothers of the Du family, but when the two brothers Du He and Du Gou saw him, their eyes immediately turned red, showing a look of greed, and they swung their fists at him. come over.
"Li Wangyou! You bastard! My father is dead, why are you still here?"
"I beat you to death, bastard! Why weren't you in Chang'an when my father was sick!"
If Niu Wu and the Zhang brothers beside Li Wangyou hadn't reacted quickly and stopped the Du He and Du Gou brothers, Li Wangyou might have been beaten up by the emotional Du brothers.
Li Wangyou couldn't help being stunned. Although he felt a little guilty about Du Ruhui's death, what did it have to do with him?
Why is Duhe Dugou so excited?
Why does it seem like he killed Du Ruhui?
Seeing this situation, Cheng Chumo and others hurried forward to dissuade the Du brothers.
"Hey, Ziyou, don't blame Du He and Du Gou for blaming you. When Du Gong was seriously ill, the two brothers went crazy looking for you, a genius doctor, to come back to save him. Unfortunately, it's still a step too late." Fang Yi Ai patted Li Wangyou on the shoulder and let out a long sigh.
Li Wangyou froze there, opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
He suddenly understood that the reason why Du He and Du Gou brothers were so excited was because of the trouble between Li Chengqian and Cheng Chumo who had rescued them before.
Including all the dandies, from the common people to the high-ranking officials and nobles in Chang'an City, even including Li Er and the Empress Changsun, who doesn't regard Li Wangyou as a miracle doctor who can revitalize dead bones and bring them back to life.
Du Ruhui was seriously ill, so Du He and Du Gou naturally hoped that Li Wangyou would take action and bring their father back.
But it just so happened that Li Wangyou played "disappearance" and didn't hear from him for several months. When he returned to Chang'an, Du Ruhui had already passed away.
Therefore, it is understandable for Du He and Du Gou to be agitated and blame Li Wangyou in grief.
In this regard, Li Wangyou could only sigh helplessly.
I know my own affairs, so what kind of a goddamn doctor is he.
He was able to treat Li Chengqian and Cheng Chumo before, but it just happened to coincide with their meeting.
It's just because the Tang people don't know much about surgery and blood transfusions, so they feel quite mysterious, so it's passed around, misrepresenting him as a shitty doctor.
But Li Wangyou also felt that this matter was a little unreasonable, and he could only pretend to be an ostrich for the excited emotions of the Du brothers...
919 The joys and sorrows
In fact, Du Ruhui was seriously ill, and the Du family had already gone to the microscopic examination, looking for medicine king Sun Simiao, Zhang Baozang and others to diagnose it.
But Du Ruhui is already terminally ill and cannot be saved without the power of medicine and stones.
Even if there is penicillin, it is not a magic medicine that can cure all diseases, so Sun Simiao and others have nothing to do.After delaying for a while, Du Ruhui finally passed away and traveled westward on a crane.
Li Wangyou can naturally understand Du Hedu's excitement.
This is also human nature.
"Two elder brothers, it is true that the younger brother came back late. The two elder brothers wanted to beat and scold me, but the younger brother has no complaints. But can I let the younger brother go to condolences to Du Gong first, and then apologize to the two elder brothers?"
The Du He and Du Gou brothers, who were stopped by the dandies, couldn't hear these words at this time, and they were still shouting excitedly.
But seeing the door of the mortal room was pushed open violently, Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng walked out with livid faces.
"Du He, Du Gou! Shut up! Don't act like a little girl again! If Du Gong knows, I won't let you mess around like this!"
Even Li Er was afraid of the saliva of Wei Zheng, a goat-nosed man.After some reprimands, the two brothers Du He and Du Gou woke up a bit, and finally shut up, but their eyes were red, and they kept wiping away their tears with their sleeves.
Fang Xuanling also heaved a long sigh: "Ziyou, you are finally back. Hey, let's pay homage to Brother Keming first."
Li Wangyou cast an apologetic look at the two brothers Du He and Du Gou, and then followed Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng into the mortal room to pay homage to Du Ruhui.
Looking at Du Ruhui's coffin placed in the spiritual room, Li Wangyou couldn't help but his eyes turned red.
Du Ruhui, a famous figure in the Tang Dynasty, was the first "celebrity" of the Tang Dynasty to die after Li Wangyou and Su Changqing traveled to the Tang Dynasty, and he was even more close to him.
After Du Ruhui's death, Li Wangyou thought about the passing of Yu Shinan, Li Gang and others in the next few years, and felt even more sad.
He suddenly felt that it didn't seem like a good thing to predict the lifespan of someone he knew in advance.
But he is also helpless, this damn life, joys and sorrows, is fate.
He, Li Wangyou, cannot change his fate against the sky, nor is he capable of changing his fate...
"Fang Gong, how does Your Majesty feel now?"
After worshiping Du Ruhui, Li Wangyou calmed down a little and asked Fang Xuanling.
Du Ruhui has an irreversible relationship with Li Er, and Du Ruhui is the main planner of the Xuanwu Gate Change.In history, after Du Ruhui's death, Li Er was very sad and cried several times because of it.
Li Wangyou sneaked away for several months, and now he returned to Chang'an, but met Du Ruhui's death again, so he was also a little worried about Li Er.
After all, Li Er, the "cheap uncle", treated him very well except for giving him a headache about Princess Changle.
Throw me a peach and repay him with Li. Li Wangyou is also very concerned about Li Er, worried that Li Er will be too sad because of Du Ruhui's death.
Fang Xuanling's expression was gloomy, and he shook his head: "Your Majesty has stopped the court for many days because of the matter of Brother Keming, and has not dealt with the affairs of the court."
He also pointed to a golden belt placed in the spiritual room: "Your Majesty ordered the old man to bring this, and it was specially given to Keming's younger brother. His Majesty also ordered Yu Gong to make an inscription for Keming's younger brother in memory. In addition, Ziyou After being away for many days, His Majesty misses you a lot, Ziyou has finally returned to Chang'an, so let's visit His Majesty in the palace as soon as possible."
Li Wangyou nodded and agreed.
Although he is a little afraid of seeing Li Er now, knowing that he will definitely not be able to escape "a beating", but an ugly daughter-in-law must always see her in-laws, and it is always inevitable to be reprimanded or even punished by Li Er.
Anyway, sooner or later, I have to go through it, Li Wangyou simply gritted his teeth and decided to go to the Taiji Palace to face the saint today.
I hope that Li Er can see that his punishment will not be too harsh for the sake of him traveling thousands of miles to return to Du Ruhui's funeral.
After leaving the mortuary, Du He and Du Gou saw Li Wangyou outside the door, although they were not as excited anymore, they still snorted coldly, turned their heads and refused to look at him.
Regarding this, Li Wangyou could only smile wryly, saluted the brothers of the Du family, exchanged a few words with the relatives of the Du family, Du Ruhui's younger brother Du Chuke and the others, and then left to go to Tai Chi. Gong asked to see Li Er.
