Time, in the intrigue between Tsar Alexei and Pope Innocent X, slowly slipped away. On this day, on the outskirts of Moscow, two Europeans dressed in oriental costumes came.

These two people are Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen. They had already arrived in Moscow one step ahead of Dorgon's army.

As archbishop, Knoison personally presided over the ceremony when he sent Nan Huairen to leave Europe to preach in the East. Therefore, when John Tang and Nan Huairen came to Moscow, Archbishop Corneri got the news and wanted to get information about the Ming Empire from Nan Huairen.

He hurriedly welcomed John Tang and Nan Huairen into the city, never thinking that John Tang and Nan Huairen, two missionaries from the Holy See, would betray their faith, and even change their nationality and ethnicity.

Tsar Alexei also got the news, and hurriedly brought a group of noble ministers to the welcome ball held by the Archbishop of Corneri, and also wanted to understand the true strength of the Ming Empire.

In fact, from the wars that have taken place now, Alexei has already understood that the army of the Ming Empire that has invaded now is far more terrifying and powerful than the Tatar Mongols who trampled through the territory of Rakshasa hundreds of years ago.

At that time, the Tatar Mongols only used cold weapons and relied on invincible cavalry. But the current army of the Ming Empire is all using firearms and artillery that are hundreds of years more advanced than Europe, and the cavalry can't even charge in front of this army.

The Cossack cavalry in the East European Plain of Rakshasa Country is the strongest armed force in Rakshasa Country. But in front of this army of the Ming Empire, when it was often dozens of miles away from the other party, it was hit by the artillery of the army of the Ming Empire, and there was no chance to meet the other party.

Alexei didn't even understand how this brazen invasion of the European continent had discovered the Cossack cavalry dozens of miles away. I didn't understand how this army of the Ming Empire could maintain accurate artillery strikes dozens of miles away.

You must know that in the current Rakshasa country, the artillery is still only firing stone balls and iron balls, which are not only bulky, but also have a short attack distance, and even in the snowy and rainy weather, the artillery has become an ornament and has no war effect.

It's just that I only knew that the army that invaded the Rakshasa Country before was the Ming Empire from the ancient civilization of the East, and the specific information was a mess of black.

Now that there are finally two missionaries who have preached to the Ming Empire and lived in the Ming Empire for several years, how can Alexei give up, this is the most likely opportunity to get information from the Ming Empire's army.

When night came, John Tang and Nan Huairen's expressions remained unchanged, and they calmly stepped into the city of Moscow, the castle of a nobleman. Archbishop Corneri, from the Holy See of Rome, stayed here for the time being, and held a welcome ball here for John Tong and Nan Huairen.

When John Tang and Nan Huairen stepped into the castle, Archbishop Corneri had already brought a group of cardinals and white-clothed bishops, as well as a group of ascetics, plus His Majesty Tsar Alexei and a group of nobles from the Rakshasa Kingdom who had rushed over, waiting for the two of them in the hall of the castle.

Looking at the robes on the two of them, Archbishop Corneri's face was a little unpleasant: "Your Excellency Ferdinand, as a missionary of the Holy See, why don't you wear your dress?" God will not bless you in your heretical garments. ”

Nan Huairen smiled slightly, glanced at the many bishops and ascetics in the hall, and his divine sense swept away to understand the cultivation strength of these ascetics and bishops of the Holy See, and said indifferently:

"Your Excellency Corneri, I am now a Taoist priest of the Ming Empire's Mingzu faction, and by the holy will of His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire, I came to the European continent to spread the glory and gospel of the Ming Ancestor. As for the heresy that you have spoken of, in my own eyes, Jehovah, the God of Europe, is the real heresy, a false god who deceives the common people......"

"Shut up!"

Before Nan Huairen's words were finished, the sound of gasping breath sounded in the hall. Archbishop Corneri's face turned pale, and he yelled angrily at Nan Huairen:

"Shut up! You damned fallen man who has betrayed God! What qualifications do you have, what courage do you have to dare to say before us that God is a false god and a heresy? You should be burned in front of the icon of the Holy See! ”

Alexei hurriedly stepped forward and said with a haha: "Your Excellency Ferdinand may be tired from the journey and his spirit is a little poor. Let's not do this, let's drink and dance first, and let His Excellency Ferdinand and this His Excellency John talk about the situation of the Ming Empire first. ”

The angry Archbishop Corneri was stunned for a moment, then remembered the purpose of the ball, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop the cardinal and white cardinals and ascetics who were about to move, and returned to his seat angrily.

Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen were a little disappointed, they still wanted to do something with the ascetics and bishops, so that these frogs at the bottom of the well could see that the cultural heritage of Taoism from the Ming Empire was not at all imagined by these white-skinned people in Europe.

Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen glanced at each other, shook their heads helplessly, walked side by side to the seats that Archbishop Corneri had prepared for them before, and calmly picked up the wine glass and touched it lightly.

"Your Excellency Ferdinand, and Your Excellency John, the two Excellencies have lived in the Ming Empire in the East for so many years, and they are already quite familiar with the Ming Empire.

This time, the army of the Ming Empire brazenly invaded the Rakshasa country and brazenly stepped into the land of Europe. I also ask the two Excellencies to explain the information of the Ming Empire's army to everyone here, so that we can better resist the aggression of the Ming Empire. ”

Tang Ruowang smiled and put down his wine glass: "My name in the Ming Empire is Tang Ruowang, my surname is Tang, and my name is John." President of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Empire, a missionary in Europe. ”

Nan Huairen followed behind Tang Ruowang and said: "My name in the Ming Empire is Nan Huairen, surnamed Nanhuai, Mingren, benevolent and righteous Ren. Dean of the Academy of Natural Sciences of the Royal Academy of Sciences of the Ming Empire, and a missionary in Europe. ”

Tang Ruowang ignored the uproar in the hall, calmly sat in his seat and said leisurely: "The Ming Empire is the kingdom of God on earth, and this westward expedition to Europe has no other meaning.

It is Emperor Jianwen, the ancestor of my Ming Empire, that believes that there are too many countries on the earth today, which is not conducive to the development of the Ming Empire, so as long as European countries can cancel their national names and submit to the Ming Empire, His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Empire is still benevolent, and can still accept all Europeans and become the subjects of the Ming Empire. ”

Nan Huairen smiled and said: "The Ming Empire's Ming characters are the synthesis of the sun and the moon. It means that under the light of the sun and the moon, all the lands are the territory of my Ming Empire. The emperor of my Ming Empire is merciful, as long as Europe submits, the army of my Ming Empire will not easily start a war. ”

"You two damned traitors, damned Judas!"

Archbishop Corneri slapped the table angrily, trembling and stretched out his hand to point at John Tang and Nan Huairen. The cardinals and white-clad bishops in the hall, as well as the ascetics, all stood up, staring at John Tong and Nan Huairen with unkind expressions, and only waited for Archbishop Corneri to give an order, and the two damned Jews who had betrayed God were to be captured alive and burned to death in the square.

Tang Ruowang and Nan Huairen's expressions remained unchanged, and they picked up the wine glass with a light smile and touched it, but there was a fire in their eyes, and when they verified their cultivation, it seemed that they were about to come.
