The vast court meeting not only makes people physically exhausted, but also constantly tortured. Fortunately, there is only one time a year, otherwise Li Jia would not be able to stand it.

The key is that it has to be done. If the emperor does not participate, something may happen.

It was noon that he rested and enjoyed lunch.

He didn't have to participate in the afternoon's grand furnishings. The so-called ritual vessels are nothing more than the seized seals, tripods, swords, and objects circulating in the Tang Dynasty palace in the past.

Taking advantage of this gap, Li Jia enjoyed some delicious food and continued to summon some foreign ministers, especially the chief officials who had been unable to come to discuss their posts for so many years.

For example, Fan Li, the escort of Chameng City, finally saw the emperor again after several years. He burst into tears in his eyes and couldn't help but feel in love.

Li Jia looked at the young gubernatorial guardian, now he was beyond recognition. His fair skin had become dark and rough, tall and full of energy. He was a little uncomfortable with it because he had not worn a long robe for a long time.

"Thank you for your hard work-" The emperor had a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty--" Fan Li knelt on the ground. When he heard this sentence, the suffering he suffered in the past few years immediately emerged in his heart, his eyes were red, and he cried bitterly.

"I have lived overseas for a long time and I will see Your Majesty again today. I can't help myself. I hope Your Majesty will forgive you..."

Li Jia also left it alone. After a while, Fan Li calmed down.

"What's the crime of the Qing family?" The emperor sighed: "It's because Chameng cannot live without the Qing family, otherwise he would have sent someone to replace him!"

Fan Li in front of him did not have the enthusiasm of the scholar before he set out. The years, weather, and government affairs torture made him look extremely mature, and his whole body exuded a shrewd and capable aura. He was only twenty-five or six years old and was already a rank-in official.

"The Chameng Protectorate was established for several years, but I wonder what the situation is?"

It has been almost four years since the establishment of the Chameng Protectorate. Before he ascended the throne, Li Jia sent people to capture this territory, which is indeed the Chameng Kingdom in later generations.

The land here is fertile and is also an important node for the southward journey. Many merchant ships stop here, and their supply and location are extremely important and extremely rich.

Li Jia did not have the mentality of leaving after taking a fight in Nan Han. Instead, he directly led his troops to occupy the city and set up the Champa Protectorate.

Because Fan Li made suggestions, he went south with the Hailong Army and became the archer of Chameng.

Regarding the emperor's inquiry, Fan Li raised his head proudly and said:

"I first arrived in Cham City, and there were only a few thousand Han people, and the number of households was only two thousand. Four years have passed. Now, the Cham City Protectorate’s Office is under the jurisdiction of 5,000 households and 2,000 soldiers, and the annual tax can reach 300,000 guan!"

Afterwards, Fan Li explained to the emperor in detail his transformation of Chameng.

First, he took tens of thousands of hectares of land from the princes and nobles at an extremely low price, and then distributed it to the poor, both soldiers and farmers, thus establishing the foundation of ruling in one fell swoop.

Then we will organize household registration and follow the Baojia system.

Later, he strongly supported Buddhism, belittled the popular Brahmanism in Champa, gained support from Buddhism, and established a foundation from spiritual belief.

Demolition of Brahmin buildings, building Buddhist temples, building academic palaces, and spreading Confucianism.

In addition, large-scale transformation of cities and ports has been carried out, and the market system has been implemented.

In terms of law, the Tang Dynasty law was implemented, the customs and customs were changed, the four-class person system was abolished, and the large family members were forcibly split and the gathering areas were split.

In less than a year, Chameng was in great control.

He welcomes all the neighboring countries, especially the Khmer Empire, and other barbarians. He does not care about other business and farming as long as he abides by the law.

In this way, Chameng in South Asia is like a torch, which is eye-catching. Many poor people yearn for it and have a lot of merchants, making it a treasure pot for real prices.

It can be said that this belongs entirely to Confucianism.

A typical rhythm of barbarians entering the summer.

"Since today, everyone in Champa spoke Luo language, recited the Analects of Confucius, wrote Chinese characters, wore robes and clothes, and right-sided clothes. In a few years, Champa was no less than the palace city in the mainland of the imperial court."

Speaking of this, Fan Li is extremely proud.

He felt that he had fully implemented the Confucian concept of governing the country, transforming Chameng into Tang territory, changing customs and customs, just like Bo Qin transforming the State of Lu, he turned Chameng into a country of etiquette, and could not see what he had before.

"Very good!" Li Jia exclaimed: "I know that your hard work has made the remote Chameng a rich place for the Tang Dynasty and a country of etiquette, which is no less than that of the prefectures and counties in the mainland. The hard work is incalculable. This approach is extremely correct!"

"In the past, Annan has always been integrated with the barbarians, so it has been rebellious and uneasy for a long time. The former Tang Dynasty spent countless financial resources. If it were his officials, who would have been acting like you, how could there be unstable reasons?"

Fan Li felt a little embarrassed to be praised by the emperor like this, but this is natural.

In recent years, who did those senior officials in the court know what life they lived?

"I will reward you for any merits. This has always been the rule of the Tang Dynasty!"

The emperor smiled and said, "Fan Li listened to Feng--"

"I am here--" Fan Li quickly knelt down.

"In view of the merits of governing the people, I specially waited for you to be a loyal son, with a fief of 500 households, and was promoted to the fourth-rank Tongyi Officer, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, and rewarded him with a thousand guan of money, a mansion in Changsha, with a land of hundreds of hectares..."

Tongyifu is a scattered rank of a literati, which is the same as the military rank of a soldier. The division of status and treatment is basically equivalent to receiving an extra salary and strengthening the treatment to show that the simplified rank is the emperor's heart, and the highest rank is the three departments of the founding of the Mansion Yi and the first rank.

"I, thank Your Majesty for your kindness!" Fan Li was shocked. He was the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the fourth rank, and the third leader of the Ministry of Personnel. If the emperor emerged, he could even go to the Political Affairs Hall to become the prime minister.

Since the young guardians were all in the court, it can be said that they were no less than reaching the sky in one step.

"Get up quickly, you are also an old minister in my residence. You have been living overseas before and have missed many of your achievements. But I know that you are still capable. Unfortunately, there are no vacant places in the local governments. With your ability, you can manage a government more than enough!"

The emperor looked at his excited face and said with a smile.

When he entered Guangzhou City, Fan Li had already defected to the city and became an official in the Governor's Office at that time. Then he went to Chameng City. Although he was young, he was extremely profound in terms of qualifications and belonged to the second prime minister Sun Zhao.

The ability has been proven, so it can naturally be improved.

It is also a beautiful story for the emperor to not forget his old ministers.

Moreover, it can also attract the attention of all officials in the court to the overseas Protectorate. If anyone goes to the Protectorate for a few years, Li Jia is willing to promote him.

After some comfort, Li Jia stretched out and said, "Investigate his deeds, and then ask the Dibao to write an article and give praise to all officials to learn more-"

"Here!" Tian Zhong immediately responded.
Chapter completed!
