There are not only Xu Guangqi, but also some other people, such as Mr. Kinnico, a great, upright, selfless missionary from France, who is willing to dedicate his life to the Lord.

Since the imperial doctor sent to Hangzhou by Emperor Chongzhen to regulate his body, Jinnige himself was taken to the capital of the Ming Dynasty by Jinyiwei, and then he was thrown into the royal academy to work as a translator.

Because Emperor Chongzhen was very interested in the 7,000 Western books brought by Jinnige, I heard that there were all kinds of things in them.

Da Ming is not a mite that must be cut far away, and his attitude towards foreign cultures has always been very tolerant, everything that is good and beneficial, Da Ming has never minded learning, and then turning these things into his own.

Of course, it is one thing for Emperor Chongzhen to be studious, and it is another thing to ask Mr. Jin Nige to translate these Western books.

Because this translation job requires Mr. Kinney Court to pounce on it all his life, and even the next life may not be able to complete the translation completely.

Tired to the point of vomiting blood, Kinny Pavilion had already secretly hated himself more than once why he had brought 7,000 books with him—if he wanted to translate all these 7,000 books, anyone would be desperate if they came.

There were only a few missionaries who knew Chinese, and one of them was counted as one, and they had already been sent to the Royal Academy to participate in translation and research.

In other words, in addition to their usual research work, each of these people translates nearly 100 books on average.

As for the Ming people who can translate these Western books, there are basically not a few people who can be found - can you ask Xu Guangqi to come over and translate or let Song Yingxing come over to translate?

The combination of these factors made Jinnige's heart more and more desperate, and he even hated why he didn't simply die in Hangzhou City—returning to the arms of the Lord, he didn't have to engage in this kind of boring translation work anymore, right?

After all, slowly translating can be said to be a hobby, and once it becomes a lifelong profession, Jinnige feels that he really can't love it.

Especially when he mentioned the things he cared about the most, such as preaching, he would always be dealt with by Xu Guangqi and them, which made Jinnige feel that his IQ had been insulted.

But it is impossible to die, and now in such a field, life and death are no longer in the hands of these people - the doctors of the Ming Kingdom are indeed magical, and the mess of grass roots and bark and those scary insects can always become a cure for diseases in their hands.

It's much better than the barbers in my hometown who can only bleed - don't care about the disease, let's bleed first, and if you can't do it, you can cut off the diseased parts.

If it weren't for the fact that there was no way to cut off the head, Kinnige thought that they might go for it.

Therefore, Jinnige also wants to be able to return to his hometown like Xu Guangqi, and it is best to stay in Daming for the elderly.

Well dressed and well housed here, especially after eating a magical fried bug with Xu Guangqi and them, Jinnige felt that he had awakened some strange hobby.

However, when Jinnige made a request to Xu Guangqi to tell the old man, Xu Guangqi was silent.

From the standpoint of friendship, Jinnige, who is also a teacher and friend, wants to concentrate on preaching or supporting the elderly after his old age, and Xu Guangqi should contribute to him no matter what.

But from the perspective of Daming, Xu Guangqi clearly knows the greatest value of Jinnige and others.

The greatest value of these people lies in the knowledge they have in their heads, not in any mission, and His Majesty the Emperor has little interest in having them proselytize.

After all, those foreign gods and ghosts may not be as good as the Ming Dynasty's miracles, and they haven't figured out so many gods and ghosts in their own family, and they still study other people's homes?

Moreover, would the great Emperor Chongzhen be so kind as to allow Jinnige to preach to the elders? Emperor Chongzhen, who has never regarded barbarians as human beings, did not use Jinnige to death, and he was simply ashamed of the word tyrant on his old man's head.

Therefore, for Jinnige's request to ask Emperor Chongzhen to resign, Xu Guangqi was really bottomless in his heart.

When Xu Guangqi tentatively proposed to Emperor Chongzhen that Jinnige also wanted to say goodbye to old age, Emperor Chongzhen smiled and asked, "I remember that Jinnige is not yet in the age of sixties, right?" ”

Xu Guangqi bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Jinnige is now fifty-eight years old, and in two years, it will be a Jiazi." ”

Nodding, Emperor Chongzhen said: "Let him get a few more people from the West who are similar to him, and then let him die when he is sixty years old." ”

The bitter persecutors of later generations will not be able to retire until they are sixty, and Jinnige wants to return to his hometown at the age of fifty-eight? Think beautifully!

Especially what does this guy want to do when he retires? Missionary! Daming's own immortal atlas is still being sorted out, let them go to preach now, isn't this making trouble for Duan Xiaorong and them?

What's more, this guy stayed in the Royal Academy and the imperial doctor to regulate his body, regardless of whether it was the ordinary missionaries of the present or the hardships of the future generations who had this treatment?

Especially for those writers who did not have social security in later generations, like Liu Shaochong, who couldn't make a book and started over again, constantly eunuchs, cut and cut, how much physical and mental trauma did they suffer?

Don't you still have to work hard to make a living?

And let Jinnige retire at sixty, Emperor Chongzhen felt that he was really too conscientious - if it weren't for Jinnige's deathly "History of Christian Expeditions in China" to "Matteo Ricci's Chinese Notes", it is estimated that he would not have thought about telling the old missionary at the age of sixty-five!

As for Matteo Ricci, it can only be said that this guy is lucky and died early, otherwise just because he dared to write the word expedition to China, Emperor Chongzhen would press him to the royal academy for a lifetime of hard work.

Although the magnanimous Emperor Chongzhen has never liked to sinners for his words, it is normal for people to suffer a little?

After arranging Lao Xu's retirement, Emperor Chongzhen, accompanied by Lao Xu, began to move around the Royal Academy.

This can be regarded as Lao Xu's last shift.

When I turned the whole Royal Academy around and came to the steam engine test site, the sky was gradually darkening, and the sun that had hung on the western mountain was shining dimly red, trying to bring a trace of warmth and light to the earth.

Looking at the test site that was empty in front of him, with only a few laps of railroad tracks lying quietly on the ground, Emperor Chongzhen suddenly spoke: "Does Xu Aiqing still remember when the Royal Academy was first established? ”

Xu Guangqi was also proud: "Back to Your Majesty, when it was first founded, there were only dozens of acres of land, no more than a few houses, and only a few dozen people.

Now, after several years of development, in terms of the number of talents and the accumulation of technology, where else in the world can be compared with the Royal Academy? ”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Not bad." I don't care how much territory I have conquered in my lifetime, let alone how many Hulu I have killed, and I don't care if the country can last for 10,000 years!

All I care about is this Royal Academy. As long as the Royal Academy is here, as long as it doesn't fall into the hands of foreigners, this meat is rotten in the pot!

For this reason, I did not hesitate to fill it with the lives of foreigners. It doesn't matter if it's a railroad or a medical experiment, or some other dangerous experiment!

After all, if you don't let the foreigners die, you have to let the people of the Ming Dynasty die! I'm not the Virgin, let alone a white lotus, even if I stink for 10,000 years, I don't care! ”

Xu Xianchun, who was following Emperor Chongzhen, tightened his fists again and again, and finally let go, still standing behind Emperor Chongzhen without saying a word, but his eyes were a little red.

Xu Guangqi bowed and said: "Your Majesty loves the people like a son, and after a thousand years, he will have his own history books to comment on the world." ”

Emperor Chongzhen sneered and said, "History books? World? Xu Aiqing knows what I am being said to be now? ”

Without waiting for Xu Guangqi to reply, Emperor Chongzhen continued: "There are always some brainless people who think that Jiannu was once under the rule of Li Chengliang, and they belonged to the Ming Dynasty.

There are also some bastard things, who think that I should cultivate virtue and politics internally, so naturally there are four Yi guests to serve, and the eight directions will come to the court! His mother! ”

Emperor Chongzhen's sudden anger, Xu Guangqi can understand, and it is even more strange for Emperor Chongzhen's rude language.

When did Emperor Chongzhen, who was able to scold Huang Taiji, the chief of Jiannunu in the city, like a shrew at the beginning of his ascension to the throne, a good-tempered emperor?

Without waiting for Xu Guangqi to think about how to persuade him, Emperor Chongzhen directly sneered and said: "In my opinion, these people's books are all read in the dog's stomach!"

Since the second ancestor of Yan and Huang from a small tribe in the Yellow River Basin to now I have the Ming Dynasty sitting on these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, tens of thousands of people, relying on benevolence and righteousness? By morality? He didn't rely on the knife in his hand!

When the Han Dynasty was strong, if there was no Han Wu to conquer the Xiongnu in the north, how could the Han family have been stable for more than 300 years?

When the Tang Dynasty was in its heyday, if there was no Tang Taizong to pacify the Turks, would it still be in the Tang Dynasty? Whether it can be longer than the Guozuo of the Sui Dynasty is a question!

There is also Jiannu, before the old slave rebelled, how did Daming treat it? All the countries and nationalities around the Ming Dynasty, only Jiannu has the thickest income!

But when Jiannu slaughtered my Ming people, did you ever think that they were also under the Ming Dynasty? Where were these Madonnas at that time? ”

Xu Xianchun, who was on his back, couldn't stand anymore, and knelt down with a puff and said in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty is angry!" The sin deserves death! ”

Emperor Chongzhen glared at Xu Xianchun and shouted, "What kind of crime, please?" I didn't say how you were, stand up! ”

After Xu Xianchun stood up, Emperor Chongzhen spoke again: "Jinyiwei can report this news, this is meritorious, what is the crime?"

As for those bastards who are stupid in reading and reading, they will be sent to Liaodong to persuade Jiannu to surrender, otherwise they will die!

Aren't these bastards talking about benevolence, don't they say that Jiannu is also a common man of the Ming Dynasty, if they can't be persuaded to surrender, that's their problem.

Since I have a head but not a brain, I don't think it's useless! ”

Xu Guangqi knew in his heart why Emperor Chongzhen wanted to say such things before he stepped down, because these words were to be relayed to Mo Hua, and even Mo Hua had to say these words to his next president of the Royal Academy.

With these words, Emperor Chongzhen said that it was no problem to listen to himself, but it was not okay to say it directly to Mohua.

Who knows if Mohua still likes to play and love? Although he doesn't mention anything about non-aggression now, what if this kind of topic arouses his thoughts of love?

In case Mo Hua confronts Emperor Chongzhen in front of him, will this head be cut or not? After all, Mohua is different from other readers.

If you cut it, the loss is too great, and if you don't cut it, the emperor's face will definitely not be able to hang up.

The emperor's shamelessness does not mean that he does not lose face, face and face have always been two different things.

After thinking about it for a while, Xu Guangqi bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, the Royal Academy will definitely keep in mind what Your Majesty said today in the future, and pay more attention to Huayi's defense!" ”

Emperor Chongzhen saw that his goal had been achieved, so he did not stay in the Royal Academy, but went directly back to the palace.

In the imperial study, Emperor Chongzhen stared at Xu Xianchun in front of him and ordered: "Just take people." Let these bastards go to Liaodong to talk to the slave about killing people, and let them persuade the slave to put down his weapons and surrender! ”

Xu Xianchun was shocked in his heart, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, these are all scholars, if they are slaves?" The minister thinks that even if their family members are in Daming, they may not be able to care much? ”

Emperor Chongzhen sneered: "I know that they don't care, what is left in their hearts except their own interests?

However, just these wastes, that is, the Huan who shouts on the lips, really have the ability, they have already been lifted, and they still need to make a big deal of nonsense among the people?

Slave slave will be slave, this kind of talent, I can't afford to use it, do you keep the scourge of the Ming Dynasty? ”

I thought that the routines I played before were awesome enough, and these readers should be honest, right?

The reality slapped his face too quickly, and Emperor Chongzhen really couldn't imagine that there would be so many brainless people jumping out when the Donglin Party and the Fushe had all closed down and everyone was almost killed.

But it's also normal, Daming is too big, and it's normal for tens of thousands of people to have so many brains, and it's strange that they don't come out.

Just like there are always some stupid people in later generations thinking about the eternal crossing and sending a force, what is the point of having a few brains?

And in later generations, there are still people who take the initiative to send refugees to, where is this?

What else can't be done by these Virgins?

Of course, some of them are the true Virgin, and they really went to the war-torn areas silently to send them off, not seeking fame or profit.

It's more for the sake of profit, who will pick on this kind of thing?

The world is just a play, there are only so many people who can go on stage, and it is inevitable that some people who watch the show will do something bullshit because they can't help but want to go on stage.

It's just eyeballs.

But there is another sentence in later generations, it is a madman who sings a play, a fool who watches a play, and a madman and a fool turn upside down and becomes a play.

In the case that the entire opera garden is Emperor Chongzhen's house, who can go on stage and who can't go on stage, is it not up to Emperor Chongzhen to decide?

As for picking up a few dishonest spectators or actors, how big is it?

After all, the owner of this opera garden has a knife in his hand, and there is more than one, and it is also very sharp, at least it is not a problem to hack people to death.

There is a knife, power and money, capricious!
