Linshuo Palace Hall.

"Your Majesty, this is the latest map drawn for you by the Ministry of Rites!"

An official from the Ministry of Rites reported to Li Chongjiu.

"Come on!"

"promise!"

When rustling footsteps sounded outside the hall, six officials from the Ministry of Rites raised a map of the height of the wall and entered the hall, and then slowly unfolded in front of Li Chongjiu.

The map is mainly gray-yellow, and the land is represented by yellow, while the sea area is represented by a gray.

This is the territory of Da Zhao now!

Li Chongjiu sighed and walked to the map. The map was drawn very exquisitely, standardizing the counties and counties, as well as rivers and mountains, as well as grasslands in the north, and various tribes in the east, Li Tang.

The territory of the Great Zhao now reaches the desert and the vast sea. This is where the Eastern Protectorate of the State of Zhao conquered the Eastern Protectorate, and the Baidao Protectorate was located. When the Great Sui Dynasty was prosperous in the past, the Eastern Turks were still there, and it did not reach here. Emperor Wu of Han did not pacify this area even though he was alive. Later, the Han Dynasty experienced the efforts of several generations of emperors, and extended its territory here.

Going further north is the northern desert, where there are the Tiel tribes. Due to the existence of the vast desert sea, this place is temporarily the limit of the army of the Great Zhao. There, the former most powerful Xueyantuo, has been destroyed, and now the Uighurs are replaced by him, and there are many Tiel tribes, and further west are the Western Turks and Tuyuhun.

The territory of Da Zhao is east of Datong River, which is the border of the former land of Goguryeo. Goguryeo, which was not conquered by the Sui Dynasty, is now the five counties in Liaobei of Zhao State, and Zhao State restored the territory of the four counties of Han Dynasty.

In Silla, east of the Datong River, Baekje and the two countries have already paid tribute to the Dazhao. They have performed extremely hard in pacifying the Goguryeo. They have become a solid ally of Zhao. Because the two countries have always been obedient, Li Chongjiu has no intention of adding the two countries to the territory for the time being. However, it is not ruled out that their descendants have this plan in the future.

At present, the Zhao State's capital is in Youjing and has strong control over the east and grasslands. Silla and Baekje are now estimating the existence of Zhao State. So Li Chongji is not worried at all. After destroying Goguryeo in history, Silla will counterattack and unify the Korean Peninsula. The Zhao State's navy can attack at any time, and Baekje is also restraining Silla.

Outside Silla is the small Danluo Kingdom. Danluo Kingdom floats on the sea, which is today's Jeju Island. But at this time, he had already surrendered to Zhao Kingdom. Last year, his king even crossed the sea to Youjing to visit Li Chongjiu.

To the east of Danluo, is the Japanese country hanging on the sea. The merchants of Zhao's seas have already mapped Silla and Baekje waters very clearly, almost outlining what Li Chongji knew about the Korean Peninsula, but for Japan, there are still a lot of blank spaces on the map.

The four islands of Japan, which are known as Li Chongjiu, are now roughly marked except for Kyushu Island. Honshu, Shikoku, and Hokkaido are all circled together, and then there is a huge gap. Li Chongjiu heard that students in the Imperial College have been discussing whether Japan is the easternmost part of the world, and whether the three islands of Penglai where Xu Fu went to sea are on Japan.

After learning about the demise of Goguryeo, Prince Shengto, who was regent with Suwomazi, died of illness. When the Japanese powerful minister Suwomazi was seriously ill, he made the last important decision for Emperor Tuogu. He formally sent an envoy to submit to Dazhao and gave up his territorial demands on the Korean Peninsula. He abandoned his status as the suzerain of Baekje.

Emperor Tuigu also decided to send envoys from Zhao every year to Youjing to learn the culture of Zhao. He also heard that Youjing Buddhism was prosperous, so he was willing to send monks to Youjing to learn scriptures and promote them to Japan.

Li Chongjiu had already agreed to the request of Japan. He knew that after Japan's worship of Buddhism, Su Mu Mazi defeated the Ministry of Pak Buddha's house to take office. The whole country has a very strong policy of worshipping Buddhism, which is the same as Baekje and Silla. Therefore, Li Chongjiu also intends to use Buddhist scriptures to transmit monks and exchanges, creating convenience for exchanges between countries.

In addition to answering Japan's request, Li Chongjiu also made his own request to let Japan open Kyushu and take three ports on it as the mooring place for Zhao's merchant ships.

After hearing Li Chongjiu's request, the Japanese envoy was very shocked. The political situation of Japan was relatively stable and was almost in a state of being closed to the country. The Zhao merchant ship had to travel back and forth between the two places, which was no less than the black ship sailing incident in Japan's history.

Faced with the hesitant Japanese envoy, Li Chongjiu asked him to visit the Zhao Navy moored at the mouth of Sancha River and the dock dock where the warships were being built. The Japanese envoy was so shocked that he could not speak and immediately expressed his willingness to return to his country to report the matter to the Emperor.

In the south, Lin Shihong was pacified and Feng Ang subdued, the territory of Da Zhao extended to Zhuya County and Dan'er County, which is today's Hainan Island. The land of Hainan was held by the Nanfu Huang for the Tang and Yu dynasties, and in the Qin Dynasty it was the outer territory of Yue County, which means that it was the end of the territory and where the power could not reach it.

During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, he sent General Fubo Lu Bode and General Lou Chuan Yang Pu to lead his troops to quell the Nanyue Rebellion and set up Zhuya County and Daner County, and Hainan was incorporated into the Central Plains for the first time. However, after the war in the Central Plains, the Central Plains court was unable to govern Hainan, so he gave up local rule. It was not until the time of Mrs. Xi that the people in Hainan were quelled, and Nanliang arrived in Yazhou, and then he returned to the Central Plains.

Now that Feng Ang returns to Zhao, more than a thousand cave li people in Yazhou have all arrived under the rule of Zhao State. Kan Ling decided to set up a county in Shecheng County, that is, today Haikou, to govern the island. In the future, Yazhou will also be another holy place for exiled guilty people in Zhao State after Liaodong.

Further south is the vast ocean where I sigh. There is a country with wolf teeth cultivation in the distant place that once paid tribute to Southern Liang, but there is no news since then.

As for the west, Li Tang confronted Zhao State. As Li Chongjiu's last opponent swept the world, Li Tang's territory is still quite large. At present, the boundary between Zhao State and Li Tang is in the Jingxiang area, and Li Tang occupies the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and blocks the way Zhao army's naval army enters Sichuan.

Towards north, in Henan, the two armies surrounded Luoyang, and their fronts were intertwined. After crossing the Yellow River, they were Hanoi and Hedong. On this dividing line that ran across the north and south, the two families each had more than 200,000 troops confronting each other here.

Li Tang's still stubborn existence became the last obstacle that Li Chongjiu had to overcome to pacify the world.

After reading the map, Li Chongjiu said to the Ministry of Rites officials beside him: "How long will it take to make such a map?"

The official from the Ministry of Rites said: "It took more than ten painters more than 20 days to draw this picture."

Li Chongjiu nodded and said, "You have done a good job in this matter. I will pass on my will and give these painters ten keys each."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I don't have to thank you in a hurry. I also want these painters to draw a thousand such maps with one tenth of this picture, and pass it to the officials, county schools, and county schools each with one map!"

After hearing this, the official of the Ministry of Rites hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, the picture on this picture is my Ministry of Rites. Through the Ministry of War, the Ministry of War has adopted the hard-working maps. This big Zhao only has this letter. If it is spread, will it not let others know the reality of our country?"

What the officials of the Ministry of Rites said is not unreasonable, but the pictures are still very hidden. When Li Chongjiu was about to attack Youjing, it was Wen Yanbo who presented a map of Youzhou to Li Chongjiu. However, these maps are the secrets of military strategists and are not needed by ordinary people. No one will need them except scholars who are idle and discuss the general trend of the world, or ambitious families who are determined to rebel.

Li Chongjiu had someone to draw the map to officials before, but it had no influence at that time. But now, there are even county schools and county schools, which undoubtedly expanded a lot, and even students, scholars and people can get in touch with them.

Li Chongjiu smiled and asked back, "In this picture, except for the city walls, mountains, rivers, and rivers, there is no description of the distribution of our troops and horses and the location of our money and grain. How can others know our reality? If you are afraid of leaking the secret, I think Li Shimin's desk will not be missing the map of the territory of the Great Zhao Kingdom, at most it is not as delicate as us."

"The reason why I want to pass this picture to the officials is just to hope that they will broaden their knowledge and let them know what the Da Zhao, which they have worked for, looks like! As for the county school and the students in the county school, I want to let them know how broad the world is. The territory I have built over the past ten years is just a few of the nine provinces in the world. Men are determined to all directions, and they will explore the territory in the future."

Speaking of this, Li Chongjiu turned around and said, "Do you understand?"

"Your Majesty, you have a lot of thoughts. You are worse than me. This is what you do!"

After the officials of the Ministry of Rites left, they reported to the officials of the Imperial Heaven Supervision for their consultation.

The official in the Imperial Heaven Supervision of Zhao State was Li Chunfeng. He was originally an official of Li Tang, but later he was depressed and unsuccessful because he was disagreeing with Fu Ren. Later, after Li Chongjiu became emperor in Youjing, he changed the order and reformed the calendar, but because he had no capable personnel, Li Chongjiu asked Fengwensi to poach people from Li Tang. Li Chunfeng had compiled ten calculation scriptures, and Zhou Xu read them very much, so he recommended them to Li Chongjiu. Li Chongjiu ordered Fengwensi to poach people. After Li Chunfeng came to Zhao State without saying a word, just to show his ambitions.

Later, Li Chunfeng worked in the Imperial Heaven Supervision and calculated the calendar.

The issuance of the calendar is a symbol of orthodoxy. The prince calls himself the emperor, so that he can promulgate the calendar instead of the heavens to make the farming season orderly. Therefore, when the emperor changes the New Year, he must promulgate the official scriptures and write down the calendars and send them to local people and officials.

Li Chongjiu asked, "Li Aiqing, you must have a glimpse of the new calendar!"

Li Chunfeng said: "That is, this new calendar has been calculated. Although the Li Tang calendar, the Yuan calendar of Wuyin usurped by Fu Renjun, achieved the moonlight that the moon was not seen eastward and the moonlight did not look westward, replacing the Pingshuo method with the method of determining the moon. This is an innovation that the six ancient calendars did not have, but the remaining amount was slightly reduced. The time of the Shuo was earlier than the actual situation. It was implemented for only two years, so it needed to be corrected. The calendar that I have defined was better than Fu Renjun's calendar."

Li Chongjiu nodded happily and said, "I heard that from the ancient Six Calendars, the Xia Hou family was Jianyin, the Yin people were Jianchou, and the Zhou people Jianzi, they all changed since ancient times, and they all decided the truth. Now I want you to revise the calendar and promulgate the world in the future, so that you can tell the people that my Great Zhao is orthodox, and your calendar must be more accurate than Li Tang."

Li Chunfeng said immediately: "I will definitely live up to Your Majesty's trust!"
