Two days later, on July 14, Chen Xingshan, who was in charge of the entire Governor's Office, the prison, the military doctor, and the Propaganda Department of the entire Fifth Army Governor's Office, secretly yawned when he went to court.

He has too many errands on him now, even if the errands on the side of the military department are handed over to another military department squire, his errands in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies are busy enough, especially Yun Xi has so many moths for the army recently, he has to be busy until late at night every day.

In this way, he naturally lacks sleep and is groggy every morning.

'Do you want to ask your majesty for a favor, so that you don't have to go to court from now on?' Chen Xingshan thought in his heart.

Before he could come up with the result, he heard the emperor's attendants say loudly: "Retreat!" ”

Suddenly, the hundreds of officials in the house scattered as birds and beasts, and walked out of the hall in twos and threes. Of course, Chen Xingshan couldn't continue to pestle here, and he also followed the large army outward.

'Or ask Your Majesty not to go to court, or I won't be able to hold on.' I happen to be in the palace now, so I will go to the Qianqing Palace and say to Your Majesty. He thought about it and finally decided.

Chen Xing is good at turning his head and walking away from the large army towards Qianqingmen.

But before he could take a few steps, the little eunuch stopped him and said, "Lord Chen, Your Majesty has called you over." ”

'Your Majesty called me?' Chen Xingshan thought, 'Do you have anything to say?' ’

'It is very likely that Your Majesty has been coming out lately, and it must be about the army again. It looks like the work is going to increase again. ’

He walked towards the Qianqing Palace with a heavy heart. Although Chen Xingshan is loyal to Yunxi, it does not mean that he is willing to make the already very heavy work even more onerous.

Chen Xingshan came to the Qianqing Palace, and as expected, he saw several governors of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, said hello to them, and greeted the four auxiliary officers.

He had just finished saying hello to Xie Jin, and was about to say a few words to him, when he suddenly heard someone say to him: "Brother Fuchu, why don't you say hello to me?" ”

Chen Xingshan hurriedly looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a person who he didn't think would be here now.

'Zheng Yi? He is the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, why is he here today? Is Your Majesty going to adjust his position? Chen Xingshan was full of puzzlement, but said to him with a smile: "Brother Linyuan, I'm sorry, I didn't see you just now." ”

The two exchanged a few words, and Chen Xingshan asked, "Brother Linyuan, do you know what His Majesty called us over today?" ”

"I don't know. His Majesty has not summoned me alone since the beginning of this year, and I would like to know what is going on. Zheng Yi said.

"What about Your Majesty? Why didn't you see Your Majesty? Chen Xingshan asked again.

"Your Majesty has changed his clothes. Now that the weather is so hot, I will sweat when I wear heavy court clothes for a while, and Your Majesty is no exception. ”

His Majesty also said that if anyone feels hot, they can wash their hands and face, and take off their hats. You see, Li Jian, they haven't all taken off their hats. Zheng Yi said.

"I don't have to, it's cool to have ice cubes in this room, and the sweat will go down after a while." Chen Xingshan said.

That being said, the hat was really hot and uncomfortable to wear on his head, and he took it off.

After a while, Yun Xi, who was more than Zheng Yi had guessed, changed his clothes and took a shower, walked over from the dormitory refreshed. Chen Xingshan and the others hurriedly put on their hats and saluted him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a formal occasion, so why bother. Take off your hat after the salute, you don't have to wear it. Didn't I just take my hat off? Yun Xi said while returning the salute.

This is all an old practice, Yun Xi has always refused to let them salute, but no one dares not to salute.

However, it was really hot to wear hats, and everyone took them off one after another.

After everyone sat down, Yun Xi began to get into the main topic of the day.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I have called you here today because I have something to order."

"First, I want to set up the national flag of the Ming Dynasty as a symbol of the Ming Dynasty."

Yun Xi said as he took out a copy of the national flag he had designed and handed it to them.

Since ancient times, there has been no flag similar to the national flag in China, and it is almost the same as hanging a large flag embroidered with the name of the country in the war between countries, and in addition, it is a variety of flags embroidered with the name of the general. The modern flag was the first to appear in Europe.

Yun Xi was very unaccustomed to a country not having its own flag, so he decided to set up a national flag.

The style of the national flag set up by Yoon-hee is simple. Since the country name is Ming, then of course it is the Sun and Moon Flag, and Yunxi used the flag of the late Ming Dynasty in history as the national flag after a slight modification.

The officials present looked at each other, and finally Chen Xingshan asked, "Your Majesty, what exactly is the national flag?" ”

"The national flag is the symbol of a country, a symbol of the country, which reflects the country's characteristics and history and culture through certain styles, colors and patterns. He gave a standard answer.

"But what's the use of the flag?" Chen Xingshan asked again.

"Distinguish between the Ming and foreign countries. All the armies of the Ming Dynasty, the fleets that go out, and the envoys who go to foreign countries must carry the flag of the sun and the moon of the Ming Dynasty, and show the difference between them and other countries at a glance. ”

At the same time, the national flag will also represent the land of the Ming Dynasty. All the land belonging to the Ming Dynasty, whether it is set up in the state capital or county or under the control of Yiwei, must set up the national flag. And never allow the flag to fall where he was raised! ”

Yun Xi said passionately. He wants to make the Sun and Moon Banner of the Ming Dynasty reach the power of the Star-Spangled Banner in the history of the previous life, as long as the flag is erected, no one dares to do anything.

But these feudal bureaucrats still could not understand the usefulness of the national flag. In their opinion, a large flag embroidered with the word "Ming" should play a similar role to this, and there is no need to set up such a national flag separately.

But since His Majesty likes it, they won't do anything with the Emperor for 'insignificant' things.

Yun Xi hated that iron could not be made of steel, and glanced at these officials who didn't take this seriously, and finally could only retract their gaze for the next thing.

"The second thing is that I designed the national emblem." Yun Xi also took out the national emblem he designed to show them.

The national emblem, like the national flag, is a symbol of a country. And in daily life, the Chinese emblem is more commonly used than the national flag, and there is a national emblem on the ID card and passport.

Yun Hee's design of the national flag and national emblem is not full of food. The national flag and national emblem can play a subtle role in daily life, allowing people to identify with the country. Otherwise, why did the Wu'er officials of the Western Regions replace the Tiananmen national emblem with the crescent national emblem? Shows that it is still useful.

It took a long time for Yunxi to design the national emblem, and he thought about various design ideas repeatedly, and finally decided to design five intertwined dragons, with one dragon head in the center, and the other four dragon heads looking in the four directions of south, east, west, and west.

The design is inspired by the double-headed eagle logo of European countries, while looking over the territory in both east and west directions. Yun Xi is more pursuing, and feels that it is too stingy to just look at the east and west directions, and it is right to take care of it in all directions, so he finally decided on such a design.

Of course, Yunxi himself could not design the position of the five dragons well, so the court painters experimented repeatedly, and finally designed the beautiful 'Five Dragons' national emblem.

But the courtiers couldn't understand the use of the national emblem, and this time Li Jian asked out loud: "Your Majesty, since you have a national flag, why do you still design the national emblem?" ”

"You'll know when the time comes." Yun Xi said.
