Without a national flag, how can we show to all directions that this is the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and I am a citizen of the Ming Dynasty!
Without the national emblem, how can we be grand and solemn, show the spirit of the Ming Dynasty, and show the majestic dignity of the Ming Dynasty!
Without the national anthem, how can we build unity, unite all people, be heroic and express our ambition to serve the country!
Zhu Yunwen introduced the national flag, national emblem, and national anthem to Xie Jin and others. In a word, they are the common flag, emblem, and song of the people of the Ming Dynasty.
As long as you are a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, no matter where you are, as long as you see the national flag, see the national emblem, and hear the national anthem, you will sincerely resonate and belong, and shout loudly:
I am a citizen of Ming Dynasty!
"The national flag, national emblem, and national anthem must be implemented this year. This matter should be left to the Ministry of Rites. Is that okay?"
Zhu Yunwen said seriously.
Chen Di's face was rosy and he said confidently: "Your Majesty, this is a matter that is fundamental to the Ming Dynasty. The people involved will surely shine in the annals of history. I suggest that people from the six ministries, the fifth army governor's office, and the cabinet be mobilized to participate together."
Xie Jin and Xu Huizu looked at Chen Di with excitement.
This kind of state event is an important event that must not be missed. If you associate your name with the national flag, national emblem, and national anthem, then after all generations, even if there is no Ming Dynasty, your name will not be erased!
Just like that, I owe Chen Di a huge favor!
Zhu Yunwen agreed with a smile and said: "In that case, how about the six ministries, the five military governors' offices, and the cabinet each use their wisdom to come up with several sets of plans for the national flag, national emblem, and national anthem, and then discuss them with the court to revise and discuss them together?"
"Very good!"
Xie Jin, Xu Huizu and Chen Di are full of passion.
Zhu Yunwen picked up the tea bowl, tapped the tea cup, and said: "Then I have worked hard to understand your love and draw up a decree. The fourth day of the first lunar month of each year is designated as the Ming Dynasty National Day, and it will be a permanent rule. Anyone who is in charge of the business can take seven consecutive days off to celebrate with the country. . Considering that the New Year's Day holiday falls in the same month as the first lunar month, and the court meeting time should be adjusted to after the Lantern Festival, on the 16th day of the first lunar month. In addition, during the New Year's Day and National Day, the capital city should lift the curfew. "
"I obey the decree!"
Xie Jin smiled and did not go back to the cabinet. He drafted the edict directly in Wuying Hall. After Zhu Yunwen used his seal, the General Affairs Department announced the news. After hearing this, the people in the capital cheered even more.
Zhongshan Palace.
After Xu Huizu returned home, he quickly ordered someone to bring Xu Yingxu back, who was having a good time outside, to discuss the national flag, national emblem, and national anthem. After Xu Yingxu heard about it, he immediately understood the benefits.
Done, the name will be passed down through the ages!
In this era, reputation is the most important thing!
Even if the Xu family declines a hundred years later, their descendants can hold their heads high proudly and tell everyone that their ancestors were the ones who designed the flag, national emblem, and national anthem of the Ming Dynasty.
"Brother, how should we design this?"
Xu Yingxu was a little unsure.
Xu Huizu frowned and said, "Don't you know how to draw? Isn't it just a matter of drawing?"
Xu Yingxu picked up the pen and looked at Xu Huizu. He didn't write for a long time. Finally, he put the brush on the inkstone and sighed: "Brother, I'm good at landscapes. This national flag can't be landscapes, right? Why not write ' The character Zhu' is surrounded by a circle, right?"
Xu Huizu wanted to vomit blood, gritted his teeth and said, "If it's so simple, you still have to think about it!"
Xu Yingxu was also anxious and shouted: "If it's so complicated, there's no point in calling me..."
Xu Huizu was speechless. Yes, his younger brother was not at that level...
That’s all, let’s recruit more people.
Song Sheng, the commander-in-chief of the Commander-in-Chief of the Chinese Army, is a man of literary and military skills. Li Yuan, the commander-in-chief of the Weizhou Guard, also has two skills. We might as well call over all the distinguished officials from the Commander-in-Chief of the Fifth Army.
"You go write an invitation and invite the distinguished military officials to host a banquet at the mansion tonight."
Xu Huizu couldn't count on Xu Yingxu, so he had to mobilize the masses.
Xie Jin was burning a small stove in the cabinet, drinking tea, and asked his subordinates to send news to Yu Xin and Zhang Suo, while he was leisurely flipping through the book.
Within an hour, Yu Xin abandoned his wife and children and hurriedly entered the palace. Zhang Yan, without Lao Han's legs, jumped out of bed and trotted all the way to the cabinet without even sitting in the sedan chair.
"Ah, the two cabinet ministers are not at home with their children to recuperate from their injuries. Why are they here at the cabinet? Didn't I just pass the news that the emperor, by His grace, has granted you five more days of rest?"
Xie Jinzi sipped tea with a foxy smile on his face.
I got a bargain.
This year the cabinet is on duty, and it will be the turn of these two next year and the year after that.
Although the two of them had taken a break, it seemed that they planned to spend New Year's Day and National Day with them and did not plan to go home.
"Master Xie, don't be too complacent. You will still be able to make a gesture next year and be on duty!"
Zhang Yan wiped his sweat.
"Why?!"
Xie Jin quit.
When they beat themselves, these two guys looked embarrassed. Now it's their turn to suffer a loss, and they still want to cause trouble?
Do we still need the integrity and integrity of cabinet ministers?
"This matter will be discussed later. Let's talk about the national flag, national emblem, and national anthem. Where to start? Should the three of us work together to complete it one by one, or should each of us do the same?"
Yu Xin went to the stove and warmed his hands.
Xie Jin handed the hot wine on the side to Yu Xin and Zhang Yan, and said: "We, the three talents, can never be easily qualified. You must know that the plan formed by the cabinet needs to be compared with the six ministries and the fifth army governor's office. I I believe that people from the Hanlin Academy should be transferred to participate in it."
"Haha, it's rare for a great scholar to admit that he is incompetent. It's rare. I don't have a problem with someone being transferred from the Hanlin Academy." Zhang Yan took a sip of warm wine and said comfortably.
Yu Xin smiled and said: "It's a pity. I don't know when the monk will return. I heard that he is quite talented."
Xie Jin nodded slightly and acknowledged: "If Yao Guangxiao can really convince King Yan to surrender, it will be a great achievement. This man is courageous and resourceful, and he knows a lot. He is a well-educated man. The national flag, national emblem, and national anthem are not matters. He should be spared."
Zhang Yan agreed: "That's right, but he should still be in Peiping now. Even if we write now, waiting for him to come back will be over in January at the earliest. I'm worried that the Sixth Army and the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion are ahead of us. .”
Xie Jin breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and said: "According to my guess, Yao Guangxiao should be on his way back to Beijing at this time. After all, if he stays in Peiping for a long time, the emperor will be more suspicious. When the time comes, if he wants to show his ambition again, he will Difficult."
After Yu Xin heard about it, he walked to the table, spread out the rice paper, picked up a pen and said: "Then I will send someone to deliver the letter. If I meet him on the way, just ask him to hurry up. If he is in Peking, I hope he can hurry up. return."
Xie Jin and Zhang Yan nodded and watched Yu Xin draw a pattern on the rice paper. The two stood aside and pointed, while Yu Xin revised it. In the end, they were still not satisfied.
"The national flag, national emblem, and national anthem are not the work of one person, nor can they be accomplished in a day. Let editors and editors recommended by various places come to Beijing early."
Xie Jin suggested after scrapping a few drawings.
