顯慶三年，高宗以敬德功，追贈其父為幽州都督。 In Xianqing 3 Emperor Gaozong enfeoffed his father posthumously as military governor of Youzhou.

高宗為之舉哀，廢朝三日，令京官五品以上及朝集使赴宅哭，冊贈司徒、并州都督，謚曰忠武，賜東園秘器，陪葬於昭陵。 Gaozong mourned him, closed court three days, ordered officials of the fifth rank and above and tribute envoys to attend his funeral, and posthumously made him Minister of Education (Situ) and military governor of Bingzhou with the posthumous name Loyal and Martial; he was buried at Zhaoling with imperial funeral honors.
