After Yun Xi made a decision, he turned back to the eleven commanders kneeling underground and said, "What do you think? ”

Yun Xi's purpose in setting up the Zhenfu Yuan is very clear, that is, to take this opportunity to add a yamen to watch these eleven guards. Not to mention that Yun Xi has already made a decision, even if he has not made a decision, these commanders who have already seen Yun Xi's purpose do not dare to refute, and at this time they all said: "Your Majesty has handled it very properly. ”

"In that case, after a while, I will let the Zhongshu Sheren draw up a decree, and after you have punished those who violate the law and discipline in the army, I will issue a decree." Yun Xi said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The commanders agreed.

"There's nothing to do with you here, step aside." Yun Hee said to them.

Guo Ming and the others hurriedly stood up and retreated.

Yun Xi gave Huang Huai a few more words and asked him to retreat.

After that, Yun Xi said to Chen Xingshan: "After you go back, tell Luo Guanzhong that they will let the people from the Propaganda Department compile a few plays and scripts based on this incident." The key points of the compilation are clear to Luo Guanzhong. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Chen Xingshan replied.

"Also, I will write an edict, you will transfer a few troupes from the Ministry of Rites and the Department of Education and Workshop to transfer them to the Department of Culture and Propaganda."

"It's not just ordinary people who need opera and books, but soldiers who also need it. But the generals are not enough, ordinary soldiers have no chance to leave the camp on weekdays, and it is difficult to go out of the camp to listen to dramas and books. ”

"So I decided to set up a theater troupe in the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, and went to the barracks to perform and comfort the soldiers." Yun Xi said again.

"This, Your Majesty, it is not appropriate for the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies to govern the opera troupe. It is better to let the establishment of the drama troupe still be in the Ministry of Rites, and regularly go to the barracks to perform and comfort the soldiers. Chen Xingshan said.

"That's fine." Yun Xi thought for a while and said. In fact, there is no need to set up a special art troupe, and the folk troupe has also been formed. With the appreciation level of ordinary soldiers, perhaps the folk troupe is more in line with their expectations.

After Chen Xingshan stepped back, Yun Xi stretched his waist, and wanted to immediately go to the answer to today's recital, but suddenly thought of something, and called the imperial eunuch Li Da over and ordered: "You immediately instruct the craftsmen of the imperial prison to start making the national emblem with a size of one inch square and flat, and make 200,000 first." "Yun Xi will make all soldiers in the country have the national emblem on their helmets or caps in the future, so that the national emblem will become the symbol of the Ming army.

Li Da didn't care where the 200,000 national emblems were used, but he frowned and didn't answer for a while. It wasn't until Yun Xi felt that something was wrong and looked at him that he said, "Please forgive your majesty." The minions had been thinking about what to use to make these one-inch square national emblems, so they couldn't immediately answer Your Majesty's promise. ”

"Why, can't you use steel?" Yun Xi said.

"Your Majesty, if it is an inch in size, if it is steel, the slave feels that it is impossible to draw the pattern of the national emblem on it, unless the size is increased to two inches or even three inches." Li Da said.

"No! Two inches or even three inches are too big. Yun Xi said: "Using ceramics, no, such a small ceramic can't be glazed." ”

Yun Xi stomped in the temple. Suddenly, he couldn't think of anything that could be used to make a one-inch square national emblem.

'Using wood? No, wood is too easy to break; Using stones? No, the stone is difficult to carve, and it is not easy to find a stone of an inch size; Use ......'

Yun Xi thought for a while, and suddenly thought of something, and said to Li Da: "Do you know coconut?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minion's hometown is from Qiongzhou, and he knows coconut." Li Da replied.

"That's good, just use coconut shells to make the national emblem. You go back and start buying coconuts. I know that the coconut trees in Qiongzhou don't need to be taken care of all over the ground, and the coconuts don't need to be picked up at any cost, and they can be used as goods to fill empty warehouses. Yun Xi commanded.

He suddenly remembered a copy of "Red Dawn" that he had read in his previous life, on which buttons were made of coconut shells. The buttons are also small, and since they can be used to make buttons, they can theoretically also make national emblems. Although the button and the national emblem are not the same thing, nothing else he can think of now, and he can only gamble.

'Coconut shells? Li Da was a little surprised, but immediately said, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

"Don't buy too many coconuts at first, forget it, if you buy less, no one may be willing to transport them, buy more, and when the coconuts arrive in the whole palace, I will reward each person with a coconut to taste." Yun Xi said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Da agreed.

"I don't have anything to order, you can step down." Yun Xi said. Li Da bowed and retreated.

Yun Xi sat down and rested for a while, making sure that he had nothing to order, walked to the table and stared at the pattern of the national flag and national emblem for a while, not knowing what to think, and then got up and went to the palace where he usually gave answers.

……

……

"Brother Cao Yu, do you think Your Majesty really wants to rectify the discipline of the Shangzhi Guards when they go out, or is it an excuse to set up a pacification courtyard?" Guo Ming said to a man in his forties. He is Cao Zhen's nephew, although his fighting skills are not very good, but he has a set of training soldiers, and has always been very loyal to the Zhu family, and was appointed as an officer of the Shangzhiwei before Zhu Yuanzhang's death. Over the years, although he has been constantly transferring from one guard to another, he has been on the guard. Guo Ming had a good relationship with him, so he asked.

"In my opinion, it is true that this is an excuse to set up a refuge house, and it is also true to rectify the discipline of the soldiers of the Shangzhi Guard when they go out. The Ming Dynasty did not prohibit the army like the Song Dynasty, and more than 100,000 people on the direct guard were equivalent to the forbidden army. ”

"So don't think about what you don't have, it's serious to go back and quickly rectify military discipline." Cao Yu said.

Guo Ming nodded unwillingly. He knew what Cao Yu's words meant. As the commanders of the first guard, how could they not know that the soldiers of the guard had some violations of law and discipline when they were wandering around the capital?

It's just that the status of the guards is special, and many people's relationships can be connected to the awesome guards in the palace, even if they are nobles, they are not worthy of offending these people, they can only pretend not to know, anyway, they are not violating military discipline in the barracks.

Although it was ordered by His Majesty this time, the soldiers did not dare and would not target the emperor, which would definitely make the soldiers of the Benwei very dissatisfied with them.

"If only Your Majesty could set up a pacification house immediately, and let them do the work of punishing the soldiers who broke the law." Guo Ming sighed.

"Hehe, how could Your Majesty set up a town at this time? The newly established yamen must be the yamen of His Majesty's cronies, how could His Majesty let the cronies of the yamen be hated by the soldiers as soon as it opened? Cao Yu sneered.

"We are condemned to be offended, so it is better to be decisive, let Your Majesty see our loyalty, and then stop being an official in the upper guard." Cao Yu said again.

"It seems that this is the only way to go." Guo Ming said.
