Su Yonglin's act of punishing himself with a knife once again caused a sensation in the entire Central Capital.
As time went by, the news gradually spread to every level of government and Renaissance organizations across the country, and eventually to the private sector, making people across the country know that Su Yonglin had operated on him.
While severely punishing and adjusting officials on a large scale, Su Yonglin decisively took action against himself, thus dispelling the resentment in the hearts of most officials, and also hindering the attempts of a small number of people to break out, without knowing what reasons should be given. Make trouble.
The anger and dissatisfaction of the official group that comes from the buttocks rather than the brain is like a punch on cotton, soft and meaningless.
It is obvious that in this wave of confrontation, the revolutionary forces achieved complete victory.
What followed was the end of the third great purge and rectification movement.
This wave of purges started in Guangzhou and ended with the punishment of more than 700 officials, clerks, and revival members.
Not only them, but thousands of their family members and relatives were also punished because of their involvement. They were exiled to the frontier and were not allowed to return if they were pardoned.
This wave of data is much smaller than the second great purge, but its nature is far worse than the second great purge.
A temporary victory does not mean permanent, and the next confrontation may even be in the near future.
It is still unknown where the enemy is and how they will fight against Su Yonglin's reforms, because Su Yonglin's toughness and uncompromisingness scare them, and they have to give in and accept the reality.
But they won't just disappear, that's for sure.
And it is certain that Su Yonglin will be their life and death enemy until his death.
A few days after the end of the Great Purge, the results of the last public consultation draft came out.
The national flag solicitation for opinions on the Ming Dynasty flag has come to fruition. Draft opinions on the national flag collected from all over the country are piled up in the document warehouse in Zhongdu City. There are more than 3,000 opinions. For this era, it can indeed be regarded as a collective effort. A model.
Su Yonglin spent some time every day for several days in a row to personally read the piled-up drafts of opinions, but he still could not find one that met his wishes.
It was not until the ninth day of October in the ninth year of Hongwu, eight days after the National Day of the Ming Dynasty, that Su Yonglin found an interesting piece among these drafts.
This opinion draft uses the sun and the moon to shine together as a beautiful meaning, which is also in line with the meaning of the Ming Dynasty title determined by Su Yonglin personally.
The sun and moon merge into one in this draft, emitting golden light, surrounded by corners of different lengths similar to the light. This pattern is located in the center of the draft, and all other colors All red.
The author of this opinion draft also named this opinion draft very thoughtfully——
"The sun and moon shine together and the world is red"
Su Yonglin took the draft and looked at it from left to right. No matter how much he saw it, he was satisfied with it and liked it. So he called Tian Qizi and others to come over and read it together. The group of people discussed it and they all felt that the draft had a lot of meaning.
The sun and moon represent the name of the Ming Dynasty, and the sun and moon shining together are a sign of good luck. The overall red color also satisfies Su Yonglin's interpretation of revolution. This draft has basically met all of Su Yonglin's requirements for the national flag.
That is to say, Xin Qiji suggested that the content of this opinion draft was a bit monotonous, and it might be better to add some content that is in line with the image of the Ming Dynasty. However, this view was rejected by Su Yonglin.
"The sun and the moon shine together and the world is red. That's how the national flag is. Just express your feelings directly and let everyone know in the simplest and clearest way that this is the flag of the Ming Dynasty. The place where the flag of the sun and the moon shines together is the land of the Ming Dynasty. In this way, it is enough That’s it!”
Su Yonglin was very happy and immediately ordered to use this draft to make a serious flag and show it to him.
The Ministry of Works immediately dispatched manpower to make the flag out of strong cloth. After the flag was made, Su Yonglin led the officials to watch the flag in the Hall of the People.
He looked left and right, turned around and looked again, no matter how he looked at it, he was satisfied with it, and he liked it no matter how he looked at it.
"I think this is already good, no more content is needed, what do you think?"
Members look left and right, and of course there are many different opinions.
Xin Qiji, who is full of artistic talents, even said that he would like to design a pattern himself for Su Yonglin's reference, but Su Yonglin had already made his own decision.
The sun and the moon shine together and the world is red, which he determined to be the pattern of the national flag of the Ming Dynasty. He promulgated this order and publicized it widely, and from now on, the sun and the moon shine together and the world is red in every corner of the Ming Dynasty. Declared the national sovereignty of Ming Dynasty.
With the promulgation of the national flag, the demand for many other types of flags was instantly put on the agenda for discussion, such as the flag of the Renaissance, the military flag of the Ming Dynasty Army and the Navy.
The officials immediately started thinking and thought of the uses of many flags, which also led to the development of many flag needs. Su Yonglin recognized this and mobilized everyone to design these flags, put forward drafts, and then discuss the final results together.
Expressing everyone's good expectations with simple, easy-to-understand and rich meaning patterns became the principle of all official flags in the Ming Dynasty.
On October 13, the ninth year of Hongwu, the first official national flag of the Ming Dynasty was raised high in the square in front of the Wanmin Hall, fluttering in the wind. Su Yonglin stipulated that from now on, at every great court meeting, officials would A flag-raising ceremony should be held under the leadership of the emperor to salute the national flag, and then the meeting will be held.
After the first national flag was raised, the entire Zhongdu City quickly became a world where the sun and moon shine together and the world is red and fluttering.
With the promulgation of official official documents and the delivery of the first batch of 500 national flags, the government began to build flagpoles in every corner and meaningful place in Zhongdu City and raise the national flag to show solemnity.
All government offices are required to erect flagpoles and hoist the national flag in front of the screen wall at the main entrance.
Official warehouses were previously required to erect flagpoles and hoist the national flag.
All public places are required to set up a flagpole in the center and hoist the national flag.
The city gate tower is required to hoist a national flag at a certain distance.
Subsequently, the officially produced national flags were sent to all parts of the country. Su Yonglin stipulated that every city in the country must raise the national flag, and every area controlled by grassroots organizations must also raise the national flag. People in all regions of the country must understand and understand the national flag. .
Especially the newly annexed areas in Jiangnan should send a larger number of national flags to let the flags fly more to show the ownership of the Ming Dynasty's territory.
Quanzhou Port and Guangzhou Port must raise a larger number of Ming Dynasty flags to the world. Every Ming Dynasty ship must fly at least one Ming Dynasty flag to show the Ming Dynasty national sovereignty.
He wanted to let the Ming flag fly in every corner of the Ming Dynasty at home and abroad in the shortest possible time. Wherever there are Ming people, there must be a Ming flag.
The meaning of the Ming Dynasty flag was also required to be spread throughout the country, so that people all over the country knew what the Ming Dynasty flag meant.
The sun and the moon are the names of the Ming Dynasty. The sun and the moon shine together, which is the best good omen and the most beautiful meaning. The remaining red is a symbol of revolution and the blood of martyrs.
The sun and the moon shine together and the world is red. The revolutionary martyrs exchanged their own blood for the grand occasion of the sun and the moon shining together. Our people of Ming Dynasty need to keep this in mind and never forget it.
On October 23, the ninth year of Hongwu, the first official flag-raising ceremony at the first formal court meeting was successfully held. Su Yonglin took the queen and Zhao Xirui, director of the Women's Department of the Renaissance Society, to attend the flag-raising ceremony.
Officials who could enter the palace to attend the imperial meeting watched the flag-raising ceremony in front of the Wanmin Hall, while everyone else watched the flag-raising ceremony at various places with national flags in Zhongdu City.
The moment when the big bronze bell in Zhongdu City rang, it was the moment when the national flag was raised and fluttered. Su Yonglin stood in front of the main square of Wanmin Hall, watching the flag rising high and fluttering in the wind, feeling filled with emotion.
It took thirteen years to raise it.
How much time will it take to protect it from being lowered?
Su Yonglin didn't know, but what he knew was that what he was doing was the most romantic and heroic thing that a human being could do.
