Section 104 Driving the Tiger and Devouring the Wolf
In addition to a large number of electronic versions of Taoist classics in Zhang Yingchen's own hard disks and CDs, they are the most abundant BL comics in the Senate. The first edition is not even comparable to such collections in large libraries.
"I remember that Hong Kong also published a comic of "Golden Vase Plum", and the painting style is quite realistic." Lu Zhongxing said, "I have seen it before, and the style of painting is not quite the same as that of the small Japanese book, and maybe it is more popular with the locals." It's a storyline that's made up to be called a tragedy. ”
Zhao Yingong was taken aback: "It's not a problem, the question is how do we reproduce the electronic version of the comic onto a slate or a wooden board?" You can't print them all out, can you? Just let the workers look at the screen? ”
"It's okay to print it out, and it's okay to copy it on the screen. After all, the electronic version will one day be annihilated. It is necessary to keep the bottom fully papered. Zhou Dòng said: "This time, after I go back, I will see if I can do phototypesetting, which depends on whether the people of the Ministry of Chemical Industry are not good, and the photographic plate is more convenient than lithographing." Even if I can't do it, I will first print a few copies of them separately on a slate in Lingao, and then bring them to you to make the base of the plate: engraving and lithographing are as you like. ”
While eating, the conversation turned to the question of how to get the support of the church in Hangzhou. Although Zhao Yingong has successfully established a relationship with them, he is not yet able to reach the point where he can ask the church to do things for him at will. Zhao Yingong also went to the church from time to time to get in touch with several leading figures in the church, in order to get in touch with Xu Guangqi's family as soon as possible.
But things didn't go very well. Zhao Yinggong went a few times and felt that the leading figures in the church were far more interested in developing him than in opening up Xu Guangqi's relationship for him.
In order to prevent himself from being too deeply involved with the Catholic Church and arousing the resentment of some non-religious gentry, it was inconvenient for him to go to church often.
Zhang Yingchen is sure about this: "I have a way." "What's your plan?" Zhao Yinggong said curiously.
"It's easy." Zhang Yingchen pretended to smile profoundly.
"Do you know the Hangzhou lesson plan for Chongzhen's eight years?" He asked.
"Regarding the lesson plan, I know Ma Lai and the Tianjin lesson plan~ the time when the old man made a fuss." "There were several lesson plans at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and the most famous one is the Nanjing lesson plan"
"Let's get down to business."
"This can be regarded as the second major setback in the Catholic Church's mission to China." Zhang Yingchen said with relish, put a piece of chūn bamboo shoots in his mouth and chewed it slowly.
This great debate began with the debate between Julius and the Confucian scholar Huang Zhen in Zhangzhou, Fujian. Huang Zhen then traveled from Fujian to Zhejiang, where he invited Confucian Zen masters to criticize the teachings of the Jesuits. These critical documents are collected by Zuihou into "Breaking the Evil Collection".
The debate between the two religions in Hangzhou began in March of the eighth year of Chongzhen, when Huang Zhen visited the Zen master Miyun Yuanwu of Ning bō Tiantong Temple, and Yuanwu then wrote the "Confession of Heaven and the First Saying", which was published by the Zen master Purun in Hangzhou. The Catholic Church has not responded to the move.
In August, Zhang Huo, a disciple of the deceased monk Yunqi (Lotus Pond), took the book to the Guanxiang Catholic Church in Hangzhou and gave it to the Jesuit Fu Fanji.
However, according to the account of the two doctrines of the heavens, the Jesuits did not respond to this argument. So Yuanwu wrote "Distinguishing the Two Sayings of the Heavens" in September, and continued to publish it on the Hangzhou list. The church continued to avoid the war, and only some Confucian scholars rejected the debate on the grounds that the "Heavenly Sayings" written by the monk Yunqi failed to defend Matteo Ricci during his lifetime.
Subsequently, the monk Yuanwu wrote "The Three Sayings of Discerning the Heavens", and Zhang Tian verified according to the missionary document "Discerning the Remains of Learning" released by the church that the former author of "The Four Ends of the Bamboo Window of the Great Monk of the Lotus Pond" was not Matteo Ricci. In the Fujian engraving book "Discerning the Relics of Learning", there is a preface to "Mi Gezi" (the name of Yang Tingyun in the imperial history), in which Yang Tingyun fabricated the story of the repentance of the Xiangshang emperor on the death of the monk Yunqi.
As a result, Zhang Sticky wrote "Testimony of Falsehood" and attacked the Catholic Church again.
During this siege, the Catholic Church remained in a position of avoiding the war, adopting a policy of not participating in the debate. Although some Confucians in the church tried to fight back, the leaders of the church always insisted on not responding and not debating, which was probably absorbing some of the lessons from the Nanking Lesson Plan. Make a mō look like "the clear is self-purifying".
This strategy of the Church proved to be effective, as ordinary Confucian scholars who were not Buddhists soon came forward to accuse Buddhists: "The virtue of Yunqi Hongji and benefiting life is as clear as the sun and the sky, and people can hide it?" How can his slanderer slander his own ears be enough to ruin his light! Hu Buwen Gu Deyun: "Everything is indistinguishable, yes, Ziwu is chattering?" ”
It is clear that the Catholic Church's policy of retreat, presenting itself as a victim, saved the weak Hangzhou Church from further shock, and Zuihou survived the crisis unscathed.
"It's only four years of Chongzhen now." Zhao Yinggong reminded him. By the eighth year of Chongzhen, maybe the form has changed greatly.
"Listen to me." Zhang Yingchen continued, "Most of the Confucian scholars in the late Ming Dynasty had a habit of escaping Zen to avoid social reality. So Zen shili is great.
Ningbō, Hangzhou, Jiaxing and other areas are the main areas of activity of the Rinzai sect of Zen Buddhism. It will be very difficult for us to spread the new Taoism. You must know that these Buddhists do not have a very good attitude towards Taoism, and I am afraid that it will not be easier for me to preach now than for Catholics. Do you know how hard it is to grab customers in mature markets? Everyone nodded, the new Taoism can achieve great results in Qiongzhou, which is nothing more than a hole in the lack of mature religion in the Zuanli District. It's not that easy to get to the mainland.
For the Liangzhejiang region, where Buddhism is deeply rooted, it is impossible for Neo-Taoism to snatch food from the tiger's mouth in one fell swoop, but to provoke a dispute between Buddhism and the Jesuit missionaries in China in advance, first of all, can weaken the influence of Catholicism. The second is to use this lesson plan to attack the reputation of Buddhism, after all, throughout the lesson plan, Buddhists have always shown an aggressive attitude. It will inevitably attract the disgust of some people in the middle.
"I want to get a piece of the pie here now, but I have to engage in a plan to drive away the tiger and devour the wolf to corrupt the influence of the two religions." Zhang Yingchen raised his wine glass and took a sip, "I am going to start this controversy in advance and take advantage of the competition between the two tigers to profit from it." ”
"I understand the meaning of your early initiation of lesson plans and stirring up the water." Zhao Yinggong said and asked, "But what is the role of enlisting help from the church?" ”
"Lao Zhao, you are really smart and confused for a while." Zhang Yingchen said with a smile: "The church in Hangzhou is stable at the moment, the world is peaceful, you are just the huā on the cake." If I make things up, it will be equivalent to giving them a heavy snowfall, and if you take a charcoal to the past, people will have to feel sorry for you! Zhao Yingong doesn't even need to exert too much effort, let alone argue for the church, as long as he suggests to the church's senior management that the church has adopted in history to respond to changes with the same idea, the church can survive the crisis and win the favor of the church. Merlin complimented him, unimpressed. The occurrence of many incidents requires the accumulation of certain conditions, and if you want to rashly trigger them in advance, I am afraid it is just the wishful thinking of this Zhang Daochang. Don't say it, this sea of people is vast, where to find Huang Zhen, the initiator? History books only say that he was a native of Zhangzhou, Fujian, and a Confucian student. It doesn't matter where you live or what you do to make a living. Moreover, a person's mind is always evolving, and that person may not even want to debate with Catholicism at this time.
"I can't talk about it. But if this is done, it will be good for everyone to complete the task. Zhang Yingchen's face was proud, and this was not speaking out of thin air. A few days ago, Huang Zhen had already arrived in Hangzhou. ”
"How do you know?" Merlin was surprised.
"Yesterday, someone came to ask me to see a patient in an inn, this person's name is Huang Zhen, and he is from Zhangzhou, Fujian, who is not him?" Zhang Yingchen said, "I now say that there are too many patients, and I will go to see him in a few days, and I want to discuss with you first." ”
"How did he come to Hangzhou?" Zhao Yinggong was surprised: "According to the history you said, he should still be in Fujian." ”
"The fluttering wings of a butterfly may have changed the trajectory of history somewhat." Zhang Yingchen said, "His sudden appearance in Hangzhou is the so-called opportunity to send mén. If you can't use it, I'm sorry for the butterfly. ”
Several of them fell into deep thought. Zhang Yingchen's plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf and stir up contradictions to troubled the waters is indeed very creative. There is a good chance of success when inferred from the cause and effect, but no one knows if the consequences of this event will lead to other things. After all, events could not have developed exactly as they had wanted.
Zhang Yingchen looked at Zhao Yinggong: Everyone is a veteran, and Zhang Yingchen has the power to "act cheaply", but after all, he belongs to Hangzhou Station, this matter is not a small problem, and it is not appropriate for the stationmaster to act without nodding.
"Achieving great things is not informal." Zhao Yinggong nodded: "This matter is feasible." "But in that case, I won't be able to come to you often." Zhang Yingchen said, "Although I won't come forward in person, if someone has a heart to inquire carefully, I can still see some clues." I've been in contact with you too much, and I'm afraid the church will be suspicious of you. ”
Zhao Yingong said: "This is from our province." In the future, we will contact by letter, that is, if we want to meet and talk in detail, I will go to Qingyun Temple to have a good time. However, we don't need to absolutely not meet, but it seems too deliberate. ,@。
