Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 182

The military flag is done in this way, and the national flag still needs to be studied.

Zhu Kezang was wondering if he should publish the news about soliciting the flag of Ming Dynasty in Huangming Daily.

In this way, the wisdom of the common people can be absorbed widely. Maybe this kind of audition method can really find good ones.

Soon, many officials wanted to show their talents in front of Zhu Kezang, and they made paintings one after another, waiting for the emperor's comments.

I have to say that Zhu Kezang, a small imperial court that has just opened, has a lot of talents. Although the paintings are average, they are at least full of imagination. Many national flags are designed in various ways.

Most people still like to use various mythical beasts to paint, such as unicorns and white tigers.

Of course, there are also minimalists, who directly came to a wave of calligraphy and wrote a dazzling "Ming" character.

Others drew all kinds of weird patterns, such as gossip and so on, which looked a bit like the national flag of Bangzi in later generations.

What's interesting is that no matter what ghost symbols are drawn on them, everyone's background color is pretty much the same, either yellow, or red, a little more yellow.

The Qin Dynasty advocated black, the Han Dynasty advocated red, and after the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the emperors were more accustomed to regard soil as a virtue, because soil was in the center and in charge of the earth, and soil favored yellow, so since then, yellow has become the main color.

In addition, Zhu Xi also said, "Yellow is the correct color of the central soil." He emphasized that yellow symbolizes the imperial power and the country's society.

Not only that, but the color of the sun is also yellow. The emperor was accepted as the target of the emperor's power, and the sun was regarded as a god-like existence in ancient times when technology was not advanced.

Therefore, wearing the color of the sun on the emperor's body undoubtedly shows the identity and power of the emperor.

However, the regular Daming likes red, because the emperor's surname is Zhu, and Daming respects the virtue of fire, so the emperor of Ming has a red dragon robe.

Zhu Kezang, a new member of the Zhu family, also likes red more than yellow.

After looking around, he took a fancy to a simple version of the sun and moon flag designed by Chen Xin.

With red as the background color, it represents the bloody nature of the Ming people to reopen the Sun Moon Heaven!
There are two circles in the middle, and the smaller circle is on the top, which is yellow.

The rest of the great circle is also red and looks like a red crescent moon wrapping around the sun in the middle.

Outside the big circle, there are twelve flying lights.

It was decided to be it, simple and advanced, not all bells and whistles.

It was almost a busy day working on the national flag, Zhu Kezang was also tired, and it was time to get off work!

As the emperor, we can't be too tired, we can sit for a while when we are tired.

"Let's stop here for the first official court meeting. My dear friends, I will give you a task. After the court, you all think about which song is suitable as the national anthem of my new Ming Dynasty!"

Zhu Kezang yawned and said.

The meeting was over, the get off work was not active, and there was a problem with his brain. Zhu Kezang hurriedly drove away the ministers who still wanted to stay in this simplified version of the Qing Palace!

Give me nine to five!
Having just ascended the throne, Zhu Kezang is more industrious and goes to court almost every day!
But the officials never tire of it, because before they could only be the courtiers of King Yanping, this time they are finally serious court ministers, comfortable!
The first resolution today is naturally the homework assigned by Zhu Kezang yesterday!
The time has come to decide on the new national anthem of Ming Dynasty.

Speaking of the national anthem, Zhu Kezang sighed a little. For the feudal dynasty, there was basically no national anthem. It was not until the late Qing Dynasty that the new product of the national anthem appeared.

It is said that the national anthem of the Qing Dynasty was created by Li Hongzhang, the master of the central hall.

In the 22nd year of Guangxu, Li Hongzhang traveled around the world and went to the European and American powers for inspection work.

When Li Hongzhang came to France, he happened to be in time for the "Games of All Nations". As the Qing ambassador, he readily accepted the invitation and attended the opening ceremony.

During the flag-raising ceremony, each country played its national anthem in turn, but the Qing Dynasty at that time could not keep up with the international rhythm, and it never even had a national anthem.

Watching the representatives of the Qing Dynasty raise the national flag dryly, the foreigners almost laughed out loud.

In this embarrassing scene, Li Hongzhang, who was more than a few years old, stood up from the guest seat, walked to the banner of Huanglong in the Qing Dynasty, and sang the folk tune "Jasmine" in his hometown loudly.

At this moment, the audience was photographed by Li Hongzhang's aura, and then the audience burst into applause.

Of course, the above are purely rumors, the authenticity of which remains to be verified.

Based on this sense of national honor, Zhu Kezang felt that he must find a song, which will be passed down from generation to generation as the national anthem of Ming Dynasty!

The ministers also knew that this matter should not be sloppy, so they thought hard at home if they had some intelligence, and those who didn't have any intelligence didn't just lie down, they directly found an excuse with their wives, and went straight to the more and more prosperous Goulan in Chengtian Mansion, and plunged in.

The pure loyal minister, for Zhu Kezang's homework, had to sleep and forget food in the Goulan!
If Zhu Kezang knew about this matter, he would definitely publish it in the "Huang Ming Daily" and advertise it widely.

The first proposal for the national anthem to be submitted was "Ode to Emperor Ming" by Liu Dian, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

He was very selfish, and he began to read in a sensual way:

The world is unified, and the Ming Dynasty is eternal.

The emperor is holy and kind, and the emperor's kindness is mighty.

……

Zhaomin relies on it, and it conquers all nations.

Forever and ever, long live my emperor!
After Zhu Kezang finished listening, he frowned slightly. This is not good. It is all bragging. How can this be used as a national anthem, because the lyrics have nothing to resonate with.

The national anthem is to make the people feel excited when they hear it. Once they hear it, they will know what mission they are shouldering. Once they hear it, they will know where this country came from and where it is going.

Zhu Kezang shook his head. This Minister of Rites is a bit amateurish, and he didn't understand the meaning of the emperor deeply.

"My dear friends, please vote. Supporters stand out, and opponents stay where they are." Zhu Kezang just asked the officials to practice how to vote.

Then we will know how to choose the prime minister.

Those who can participate in the simple version of Qianqing Palace, not to mention they are all human beings, at least they can observe their words and demeanor. Seeing Zhu Kezang's expression, they knew that he did not support this so-called "Ode to the Emperor".

Sure enough, there were very few on-site support.

"Next plan!" Old Eunuch Li shouted loudly.

Several people stood up and read their own plans, some of which were more perfunctory, copied "Qin Feng Wuyi", and some copied inappropriately, copied Sima Yi's "Zheng Liaodong Song", the first sentence is indeed suitable for Daming: The heavens and the earth are opened up, and the sun and the moon reappear.

But Sima Yi is not suitable, he has a bad reputation!
More and more plans were rejected, and the ministers at the scene were somewhat nervous.

At this time, Qin Zhiguo, a young general from the Guards, stood up, and he said in a thick and emotional voice:
The cloud follows the dragon, the wind follows the tiger, fame and wealth, dust and earth.

Looking at Shenzhou, the people are suffering, and the fertile land for thousands of miles is barren.

Look at the world, the barbarians are exhausted, and the way of heaven is incomplete.

Good man, don't leave your parents, just for the sake of the common people and not for the Lord.

Holding the steel knife 99, he killed Hu'er before giving up.

I am a majestic man, why are the Tartars making horses and cows?

A strong man drank all the wine in his bowl and traveled a thousand miles without turning back.

The golden drums are beeping in unison, and the crowds are roaring, vowing not to break the yellow dragon.

　The new flag of Ming Dynasty is on the top of the comment area, and the Easter egg chapter is here!
