He originally thought he was a charlatan, but when he heard that the other party was proficient in medical skills and health preservation, he was still strong at the age of 72, and he was still walking like flying after traveling from Lingnan for half a month, so he was moved.

As an emperor, of course he does not pursue immortality now, that is impossible for anyone to achieve.

But he is now 57 years old, of course he will live a few more years.

Since my scheming grandson can recognize him, and he is still the elder of grandson Chenghui, a master of Taoism, then there is nothing wrong with him seeing him, so he was announced.

If he is really a master, it would be best to help him recuperate.

If he is a liar, he can also check for his grandson.

Others were naturally envious when they found out that Zhonghezi was going to enter the palace, and even his apprentice Yuan Zhen lost his composure.

However, Zhonghezi was still calm and calm, and he didn't seem to care at all. He arranged for Yuanzhen to decorate the room and went back to the palace with Zhu Zhanji.

After entering the Donghua Gate, Liu Chenghui is not qualified to see Zhu Di, so he can only go back to the palace first.

When he came to the center of the empire, no matter how calm Zhonghezi was, he was a little curious at this time, and looked around for a while.

Zhu Zhanji thought to himself, Xiao Mian, no matter how advanced he is, he is just a person, and he has not yet become a god!

It's not that he looks down on Zhonghezi, but he just thinks that he is a bit too pretentious, even more pretentious than his great-grandson.

It was the first time in this era that an old man took away the attention, and I felt a little unconvinced.

After the two met, Zhu Di also directly asked about Zhonghezi's details. At this time, Zhu Zhanji also knew that this old Taoist priest had a lay name, his surname was Xu, and his courtesy name was Jingzhi.

Huizhou Tianbao Temple is also a Dao Temple built in the Tang Dynasty. It is also registered in the Daolu Department, but it does not indicate that the old Taoist is proficient in medical skills.

The old Taoist refused, but he also felt Zhu Di's pulse, pointed out some minor problems in his body, and prescribed two health-preserving prescriptions for him.

In the subsequent chat, the two talked about the rise and fall of Taoism and the rise of Buddhism.

After lunch, Zhu Zhanji was kicked out by Zhu Di, which made Zhu Zhanji feel that his grandfather seemed to have no good intentions again.

Using Taoism to suppress Buddhism has been the basic state policy since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

But Zhu Zhanji believes that Taoism cannot be simply used to suppress Buddhism, which has been proven useless in history.

This is because Buddhism is good at learning, being good at blending, being good at lowering one's figure, and being better at deceiving people's hearts.

And Taoism is either those people who pretend to be gods and ghosts, or it is a kind of out-of-the-world expert, who disdains to get along with ordinary people.

In terms of doctrine, Buddhism emphasizes being in the world, emphasizing tolerance, and pursuing the afterlife.These are illusory, but also can make people look forward to.

But Taoism pays attention to self-cultivation and birth, so naturally it cannot compete with Buddhism.

If you want to suppress Buddhism, you can only rely on administrative means, government control, and both hard and soft tactics.

If you rely too much on Taoism, you will only raise Taoism again.

But at this time, he can't intervene in these things, so he can only let Zhu Di do it.

He only hoped that Zhonghezi would not forget his purpose of coming to the capital and come up with effective measures to prevent miasma sooner.

He will go to sea at the end of the year, and he is still waiting for a better prescription!

Now miasma is raging all over the world, without good medicine, he dare not go to many places!

Returning to Xingqing Palace unknowingly, Zhu Zhanji was also a little bit depressed for a while, and decided to take a vacation for himself and accompany a few children in the palace.

Thank you for seeing people with lights, this Nima actually gave a reward, thank you for your support

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

"Your Highness, it's time to rest."

"No hurry, I will rest after finishing this design."

Xue Shanggong approached and saw a large stack of white papers on the case table in front of Zhu Zhanji, and each piece of white paper was painted with relatively abstract patterns, which was similar to Zhu Zhanji's previous fine brushwork. big difference.

Zhu Zhanji's handwriting is good, and his paintings are also passable, including sculptures that can catch the eye.However, his style tends to be meticulous and realistic, which are two different styles from the freehand brushwork that is now admired, so he is not very recognized.

"what is this?"

"The royal flag, the national flag, and the military flag. These are just the first drafts. I will show them to the emperor's grandfather tomorrow, and then I will finalize them."

Since he was going to go to the West, Zhu Zhanji of course thought of making the national flag, military flag, and royal flag.

The main color of the royal flag is red and yellow, and the pattern is a yellow five-clawed golden dragon holding the sun in its mouth.

The light yellow hue of the national flag is a slightly smaller golden sun and a slightly larger silver crescent, forming a big circle, representing the sun and the moon.There is a piece of blue below, decorated with wavy lines, representing the rising of the sun and the moon.

The military flag is divided into the navy and the army. The army is yellow and decorated with red. It is a map covering the Eurasian continent and the Nanyang Islands, representing the territory of the Ming Dynasty. The sun and the moon are on the top, and the code names of the armies are on the bottom.

The navy ensign is almost the same as the army ensign, but in shades of blue and the land is yellow.

These flags are also about three to two, or five to four, but unlike modern flags, they are longer in height and shorter in width.

Because the flags of this era are basically vertical rectangles in order to support the flag.In fact, such a design is more in line with the principles of mechanics than the flags of later generations.

The height is longer, and when hung on the flagpole, the expanded area will be larger.Who knows why the national flag of later generations becomes wider and longer, and if there is no wind, it will hang limply on the flagpole.

As for only the map of Asia and Europe, it was also Zhu Zhanji's intention. Only when Ming Dynasty actually occupied those new continents would it be printed on the flag.

Now Europe has not been abroad yet, and now Portugal has just established its first colonial stronghold in North Africa.

They have no idea how big the world is and what countries it has.

Xue Shanggong sighed, and helped Zhu Zhanji organize the drawings and put them away. "Not long after you came back, you were going out again."

Zhu Zhanji said with a smile: "If there are no accidents, this will be the last time I will travel far. In the future, there will be no such opportunities."

Xue Shanggong wanted to say something else, several eunuchs and maids ran to the door of Zhu Zhanji's side hall, and said excitedly: "Your Highness, Chen Liangyuan is about to give birth..."

Chen Liangyuan is Qiuyue, one of Zhu Zhanji's former four romantic daughters. After becoming Zhu Zhanji's concubine, she used her name back.

Zhu Zhanji still has deep feelings for her, and he said to Xue Shanggong, "Go and tell Yang Fengyu, I'll go to Chen Liangyuan's first, and I'll go to her later."

According to the rules, Zhu Zhanji is going to accompany Yang Fengyu today, but now that the child is about to be born, of course he has to visit the child first.

That night, until the wee hours of the morning, Chen Liangyuan was tortured to death before giving birth to a boy.

So far, Zhu Zhanji has become the father of five children.

Zhu Di didn't pay much attention to the design of the national flag. On the contrary, he paid special attention to the royal and military flags.

For several flags, he also put forward some opinions, made some small adjustments, and then brought them to the court for discussion.
