Li Ke received a message from the village of Monobe on the same day, and when he saw the news, Li Ke smiled.

This means that Datang has solved another huge problem.

However, considering the request of the Muraka of Monobe, Li Ke pondered for a while, and then directly convened a court meeting temporarily, of course, Li Shimin also participated.

"Li Ke, since you are holding an emergency court meeting, if you have any problems, you can just say it." Li Shimin came up and set the tone first.

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday I received the latest news, the Wa Kingdom has been officially renamed Fusang Prefecture from today, so far, the small countries around the Tang Dynasty have been annexed one by one, which has also led to a big problem." Li Ke looked at all the ministers and spoke directly.

"These small countries have their own language, as well as speaking habits, and they also have their own way of naming their characters, but this naming method has a very high inconvenience for the Tang Dynasty, although these small countries have their own language pronunciation, but they do not have their own writing, and they all understand Chinese."

"In the process of popularizing Chinese characters in the future, in order to better facilitate household registration statistics and related policies, I put forward an opinion here, that is, to all the people of the Tang Dynasty, whether it is Nanban, Beidi, Xirong, Dongyi, from today they are the people of my Datang."

"Therefore, these four titles are strictly forbidden to be used in any official text of the Tang Dynasty in the future."

"And in order to popularize Chinese character surnames, I have drafted a Chinese character surname from today to pass on to the world." Li Ke said with a calm face.

With Li Ke's words, naturally the little eunuch waiting next to him distributed the printed documents about the surname to all the ministers below.

After Fang Xuanling and Wei Zheng opened it, they were stunned for a moment.

At the top is written "Hundred Family Names".

And underneath it is marked with a letter: A: A. B: Baili, Baili, Bai, Ban, Bao, Bao, Storm, Bei, Ben, Bi, Bian, Bian, Bei, Bing, Bo, Bu.

The following is to start with the order of the initial vowel table. All the surnames that exist in Datang are listed.

After everyone began to look at it, Li Ke continued to speak: "What I mean is that the following surnames should be open to all the people of the Tang Dynasty in the country, and those who do not have surnames can freely choose these surnames and then go to the local security department for household registration." ”

Everyone looked down, and the first thing they were looking for was naturally the letter L, and when they saw that the first word followed by L was the word Li, that is to say, His Royal Highness opened the surname Li to the world.

"The minister has the right to play." Fang Xuanling pondered for a moment and then spoke directly.

"Say." Li Ke nodded.

"Wechen feels that this matter is inappropriate, first of all, Wechen does not disagree with this initiative, because there should be a way, if you choose to let the people choose for themselves, then if these people choose to follow the surname Li, what should they do? You can't suddenly have tens of millions of Li surnames in the world, which is not very beneficial to household registration statistics, as well as the distribution of surnames. Fang Xuanling said.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness is unprecedentedly enlightened, China is newly determined, hundreds of countries are submitted, Your Royal Highness has canceled many evasions, which is really a blessing for the people, but this kind of self-help choice is indeed inappropriate, and it is not as suitable as a random selection."

Regarding Fang Xuanling's words, all the ministers nodded in affirmation, they all knew that it would be impossible to disagree with this matter, even the surname Li had already been put in, who would dare to oppose the others? Including the five surnames and seven hopes, none of them dared to oppose it.

Since you can't object, what Fang Xuanling said is indeed a problem, everyone knows in their hearts, not to mention anything else, nearly one million people in Qinghai Prefecture, if you let them choose by themselves, everyone wants to have a surname with His Royal Highness, and when the time comes, there will be millions more surnames Li, so that there must be a large number of duplicate names in the household registration registration.

And that's a lot of that.

Li Ke also agreed, he really didn't think about this, now that he thinks about it, there is indeed this possibility, Fang Xuanling's opinion is very pertinent.

Li Ke is not surprised by the China in Fang Xuanling's mouth, the word China has been used as early as the Zhou Dynasty.

For example, Fang Xuanling and other ministers often use it, and Fang Xuanling has used them many times in history. For example, in the sixteenth year of Zhenguan in history, Xue Yantuo Zhenzhu Khan offered precious treasures such as good horses and mink skins to propose marriage and peace.

Li Shimin asked for the minister's opinion, and Fang Xuanling once said, "China is newly determined, the soldiers are fierce, and the war is dangerous, and it is beneficial to be friendly and friendly." ”

In fact, when he came to the Tang Dynasty, Li Ke realized that the Tang Dynasty was much more enlightened than he imagined, for example, the Tang people actually claimed to be not Tang people, but Han people, or Han family children.

This is recorded in many documents and books, and Li Shimin has never said anything.

For example, the famous Nanzhao Kingdom in history was attached to the Tang Dynasty, and it was written in the official document that "please all belong to the Han Dynasty (that is, the Han court)", and the leaders of the various tribes of Nanzhao at that time "are willing to return to Qinghua, swear to be Hanchen, and never leave the second." ”

Therefore, the Tang Dynasty does not have any absolutely forbidden things such as calling himself a Han and a son of the Han family, Li Shimin's tolerance is not only manifested in his ability to let go of all the ministers who follow his eldest brother, and he has not dealt with any meritorious heroes, his tolerance and generosity are reflected in all aspects.

It's like the rebellion of Hou Junji in history, if you change a dynasty and don't give you the Nine Clans, it is inevitable that the whole family will be beheaded. But Li Shimin only killed Hou Junji alone, and his wife and children were simply exiled, and they were exiled to Lingnan, which is not a particularly remote place.

It is precisely because of Li Shimin's mind that Datang's inclusive and open attitude has been established, if this is put in the Qing Dynasty, everyone who understands it will understand.

As for Li Ke's handling of various things in Datang, he is naturally more open to this aspect, and Datang must have this mentality if he wants to integrate various ethnic groups.

"What Liang Guogong said is very true, the minister thinks it can be improved, for example, in the names of the people of some small countries, if there is the same surname as the surname in the hundred families, this character will be directly selected as the surname, if not, then one will be randomly selected." Wei Zheng thought about it and also suggested it.

"The ministers seconded the proposal." None of the others have any opinions, and this matter is big and small. But His Majesty and His Royal Highness have made an attitude, and each family naturally doesn't matter, anyway, each family has its own genealogy.

"That's it." Since everyone agrees, Li Ke is not hypocritical, "Everyone in the follow-up will follow this." ”

Far away in Fuso Prefecture, Monobe Village, received a message sent after this meeting.

"Under the door: Now there is Fusang to return to the ministers of the Ministry of Things, loyal and brave, heroic killing, for the Tang Dynasty to make great contributions, specially given the Han surname: Wu, the will of the Zunwu Department himself, given the name: Town. At the personal request of Wu Zhen, Wu Zhen was appointed as the general of the Tang Zhendong, Zheng Sipin, who led the remaining army of 8,742 people and the Tang Pacific Fleet to guard Fusang Prefecture, across the Fusang Sea, and landed from the back of Goguryeo, waiting for follow-up orders. ”
