Li Ji has resumed his surname.
It is rumored that Li Ji himself asked for restoration, but only a few people know the truth.
At a meeting held by the Cabinet, both Cheng Qian and Li Ji attended, and it was precisely about overseas colonial territories that were discussed.
As a result, Li Ji didn't know if it was because he became the emperor's father-in-law, so he swelled.
Several times against the emperor, Cheng Qian was very unhappy, and finally said that he should restore his surname.
The emperor said this, and Li Ji naturally had no face to keep his surname.
After going back, Li Ji asked to change his surname back to his original surname, and Cheng Qian calmed down a little after going back, feeling too impulsive.
Who knew that at this time, he received such a twist from Li Ji, and now it is good, the twenty-year-old Cheng Qian also has a temper.
At the moment, he didn't say anything anymore, and directly approved with a quasi-word.
Li Ji then restored his surname to Xu Ji.
In this era, the emperor's surname, especially the surname of the country, can be different from the concept of what to change the surname of later generations.
It's a great honor to be a royal family.
It would be a great shame to take the surname after giving it.
Zhang Chao also restored his surname, his surname was given by Gaozu Li Yuan, and was later taken away by Emperor Li Shimin, and Cheng Qian restored his surname, but later Zhang Chao insisted on reverting to his surname, which is quite clear, and everyone regards it as a special case.
Although many people don't understand why King Zhao has to restore his surname.
And now Li Ji has also resumed his surname.
"Old Ma, what do you think of my new family crest of the Zhang family?"
Zhao Wangfu.
Zhang Chao took out a beautiful picture and unfolded it for Ma Zhou to see.
Zhang Chao was originally given the surname of the country, and he also joined the royal family.
Therefore, the three patterns of the white tiger, the Xuanniao and the plum branch were selected on the family crest.
The white tiger is part of the coat of arms of the royal family, which is the white tiger and the green dragon Li Shu.
Xuanniao represents one of the descendants, and Li Shuzhi is naturally also surnamed Li.
Now that the original family name has been restored, the original family crest is a little inappropriate.
The Li branch representing the surname Li and the white tiger representing the royal family can no longer be used.
Ma Zhou unfolded and took a closer look.
"Isn't this a nine-headed bird?"
"Yes, also known as the immortal bird.
Also known as Jiufeng, commonly known as ghost car. ” This bird has ten necks and nine heads, because the pronunciation of ancient Chinese nine and ghost is similar, so it is also called the ghost bird, which is an ominous bird from the mythological stories of the Book of Mountains and Seas and Chu Ci.
This bird originally had ten heads, and it is said that his tenth head was shot off by Zhou Gongdan's order hunters, and the headless neck was constantly dripping blood.
According to the legend of the ancients, when the nine-headed bird flies by, it must blow out the lights and let the dog drive it away, otherwise the nine-headed bird will suck the soul of the child.
Generally speaking, the nine-headed bird is a mutated phoenix with nine heads.
In the state of Chu, which worships ghosts and gods, it is worshiped by the Chu people.
It is said that Zhu Rong, the ancestor of the Chu people, is the incarnation of the phoenix, and the Chu people worship the phoenix and also worship the nine.
However, the nine-headed bird in the history books is very hideous and terrifying, especially the legend of the ominous bird.
"Why use a nine-headed bird?"
Ma Zhou was a little puzzled.
Zhang Chao has always liked the nine-headed bird, which in his opinion symbolizes the quality of perseverance.
Dragons can't be used, tigers can't be used, and Zhang Chao of lions and wolves doesn't like it too much, and in the end he personally chose the nine-headed bird.
It's just that the final design of the nine-headed bird badge is changed, a circle, and the top and bottom are missing.
There are nine birds in the circle, and these nine birds make up a sun that emits flames.
The eight flames around the sun are exactly eight bird heads, and there is another bird head in the middle of the fireball.
The outer circle and the inner sun and eight birds are red, and the head of the bird in the fireball is white.
The sun, the fire, the nine-headed bird.
This badge has no sense of hideous and terrifying, the bird's head is like a flame, and it is relatively simple.

But it also shows the meaning that Zhang Chao wants to convey, the red nine-headed bird, one bird in the middle, and eight birds around it.
And it means to have nine heads, tenacious and tenacious.
"It was originally a terrifying ghost car, but when you painted it like this, it looked very pleasing to the eye."
"Together, the nine birds become one shining sun?"
Zhang Chao laughed, "I only hope that no matter how the Zhang family spreads in the future, they can unite and have perseverance."
Even if a few heads are cut off, they can still stand strong and unyielding. ” "In this way, this nine-headed bird is really good."
Ma Zhou admired.
It was originally an ominous bird, terrifying and hideous.
Ten heads grow, but one was cut off, and one headless neck bleeds all the time, such a bird is simply a demon bird.
But now that Zhang Chao has drawn it, it has completely changed.
The red nine-headed bird badge is more domineering than the white tiger Xuanbird plum branch badge you used to come from.
Ma Zhou's family coat of arms is relatively simple, with two birds facing the sun.
A pair of white cranes facing the sun.
Compared with the nine-headed bird of the Zhang family, it looks much fairy, not as domineering as the Zhang family.
"Da Lang has also gone to Liuqiu, Dingfang has also gone to Monan, Liu Renliang has gone to North Korea, and Cui Yan has gone to Funan.
Your house hasn't been as lively as it used to be lately.
Ma Zhou said.
"Year after year, when you grow up, you naturally have to spread your wings and fly high."
Ma Zhou asked Zhang Chao, "Do you intend to participate in this overseas colonial territory?"
"Of course, we have an obligation to take the lead.
Colonizing overseas and protecting trade routes is a benefit, but it is also a responsibility.
Up to now, the Tang Dynasty is inseparable from trade, and the population of the Tang Dynasty is now growing rapidly, and in the early years of Wude, the population of the imperial court was only more than 10 million.
But now, there are more than 60 million people, more than 10 million households. ” Ma Zhou smiled, "Tell me, what is your real intention in launching this plan?"
"Naturally, it is to expand the territory and promote the great voyage."
"How do I feel that it is not so simple?"
"Actually, it's not that complicated, it's very simple.
Don't you think that one day, Chinese civilization will spread all over the world, all over the world, and all continents will be full of people who speak my Han language?"
Ma Zhou nodded.
"When Zhou divided the world, the Central Plains were all over the country, and then hundreds of years later, the Central Plains were all Chinese.
Wen Yuan, your idea is very good, maybe after a few hundred years or even a thousand years, there will really be no more Huayi in this world, all of them will be Zhuxia. ” "And if we really establish such a great Chinese civilization circle and develop a large economic community, life will definitely be better."
"I don't see that day anyway."
Ma Zhoudao.
Changle Palace.
Li Shimin has been able to get off the ground, and now he can walk slowly on crutches.
This speed of recovery surprised the imperial doctors.
After walking about a few hundred steps, Li Shimin was out of breath.
Let go of the crutches and sit down.
Wu Meiniang took a handkerchief to help him wipe the sweat off his face.
"I've never felt so happy to walk."
Wu Shi said, "It is easy for people to ignore what they have, but if they lose it, they will make people understand the preciousness and know how to cherish it." ” "I've finally stood up again, and now, I can't wait to go to the Americas, to make a comeback."
"If you lose, I will accompany you to make a comeback, if you win, I will accompany you to reign in the world."
Wu Shi held Li Shimin's hand and said.
"Hahaha" Li Shimin laughed loudly, and tears of laughter fell.
"Very well, I was not wrong.
Mei Niang, when you arrive in the Americas, I will canonize you as the Empress Taishang, and at that time, no one will be able to stop me. ” "I, I want to lay a big territory in the Americas and build another Tang Dynasty, and at that time, you will accompany me to the world."

Datang is no longer his Datang.
Recently, Zhang Chao has been engaged in overseas colonization.
Now there is almost a person who has two coins in his hand and has the opportunity to get a fief and become a lord.
Thinking about it now, Li Shimin even regretted accepting Zhang Chao's suggestions at the beginning, and he regretted that he should not have opened the sub-sealing system.
Although today's Datang is powerful and wealthy beyond his expectations, it is indeed powerful and comes from all directions.
But today's Datang is not only the Tang of the Li family.
Cheng Qian, the emperor, shared the world with thousands of nobles.
Even businessmen and craftsmen have a place here.
This is not the Li family's world.
"Motosuke, the Emperor sent a message to me today, saying that he is going to America now."
In the imperial study, Li Chengqian talked to Zhang Chao.
"Isn't it a three-year appointment, and Your Majesty is not in good health now, so it's not suitable to go at this time."
"I went to see the emperor in person, and he has made up his mind and insists on leaving immediately."
Zhang Chao thought for a while, "If Your Majesty really insists on leaving, that's fine."
Anyway, it makes no difference if you go early or late.
I immediately set about arranging the ships and escorts. ” Cheng Gan said, "Arrange more people for the emperor, the original plan was to give him a population of 1,000 households."
Add 2,000 households, and the emperor will make up a population of 20,000.
Prepare more ordnance, ships, food, livestock, cloth, tools, etc. ” "Your Majesty, it is not easy to send 20,000 people to the Americas.
After all, this route has to cross the vast sea, cross the ocean, it is difficult to replenish in the middle, and there are many uncertain factors when sailing. ” Two hundred ships for one ship, and one hundred ships for twenty thousand people.
Even if you get some big boats, you still have to bring all kinds of food, seeds, tools, and even cattle and horses, and you have to bring some ordnance, and you have to have soldiers to protect you.
This fleet is not small, once it goes, a year is at least.
Doing the math, it costs a lot.
"I'm pulling out the money in the inner curry."
Zhang Chao nodded, money is not a problem, the key is transportation and road safety.
In addition, 20,000 people, especially the whole family, is not easy to make.
If you go to the Americas, you will really be exiled to a different continent.
Criminals, slaves, and some old people from the original palace were brought with them.
The route to the Americas is relatively mature, and over the years, Zhang Chao has funded the adventure fleet and made one trip after another.
It's just that there is a problem, Central and South America have relatively strong states, and North America is in a better situation.
But from the Pacific Ocean used to make landfall on the west coast, but the western part of North America is not a good place, like the northwest Guanlong region of the Tang Dynasty, which is a high mountain plateau desert.
The East Coast is a great place, especially in the Great Lakes region, but getting around the West Coast is more difficult.
If he landed directly in Central America and then went to the east coast by land, he was afraid that Li Shimin would be killed by the natives halfway.
Moreover, there are relatively strong indigenous tribes in the Great Lakes region.
It seems that Li Shimin can only be placed in California on the west coast, where there is a central valley between the Coast Mountains and the Sierra Nevada, which is a valley that runs nearly 1,500 miles from north to south, and is considered a relatively good agricultural land in the western region.
The landing place was San Francisco Three chapters are still owed t1706231537:
