PS: Thank you G00D for your support, thank you for the monthly pass of the early moon of the ancient plains!

In the end, John Tang did not attend the dinner at Xu's mansion, and did not wait for Xu Guangqi to return to his home, so he hurriedly returned to the Catholic Church.

There was a "bang", and as soon as he pushed the door open, he said loudly: "It's a big deal, please ...... it."

The person in the room was the conservative old stubborn priest Long Huamin mentioned earlier. He looked up and saw that Tang Ruowang was so hurried and rude, he even came in without knocking on the door, his face immediately sank, and he interrupted Tang Ruowang's speech with an angry shout: "What are you doing? How can we spread the gospel of God in such a panic? ”

When Tang Ruowang heard this, he took a deep breath, tried to calm his mood, walked to Long Huamin's table, and said with a little anxiety: "We are in big trouble?" ”

"What, could it be that the Ming Emperor wants to make us Catholic?" When Long Huamin heard this, his face changed, but he immediately denied it, "But it's impossible, right?" ”

"Although it's not the Ming Emperor who wants to seal it, it's actually about the same!" Tang Ruowang said with a very ugly face.

As soon as Long Huamin heard that the matter was so serious, he couldn't sit still, stood up and looked at Tang Ruowang and asked, "What is the matter, it is so serious?" Could it be that the heretics are going to storm our churches again? ”

Tang Ruowang shook his hands and said, "No, no, there are Han people who have returned to Ming from us." He was rich in learning, erudite and talented, and said that he would open a museum to teach Western learning. ”

When Long Huamin heard this, he couldn't help but say slightly angrily: "That's it? What are you fussing about? He can do whatever he wants. ”

When Tang Ruowang heard that he didn't understand the power, he immediately reminded anxiously: "If he really does this, we will probably be driven out by the Ming Kingdom." Because...... Because we are useless to the people of the Ming Kingdom! ”

"Humph!" Long Huamin said with a little disdain, "We are preaching the gospel of God and are here to save them." God Almighty bless us. By spreading Western learning among themselves, you will be able to concentrate more on spreading the gospel of God! ”

Tang Ruowang saw that he didn't wake up, and he wanted to slap him to wake him up. After forbearance for a while, he had to remind again: "If those Ming officials don't have to learn Western studies from us, then they won't care about our affairs anymore." The soldiers at the gate were withdrawn, and the infidels stormed our church. And also. Have you forgotten about Nanjing? ”

This time, Long Huamin finally didn't show a disdainful expression anymore.

A little farther away is the 44th year of the Wanli reign of the Ming God Sect, Shen Yu, the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, together with other officials, went to the imperial court and announced a series of crimes against Catholicism, some missionaries such as Wang Fengsu and Xie Wulu were arrested in Nanjing, and missionaries such as Pang Di I and Xiong Sanba were escorted to Macao from Beijing. The churches they had built were demolished and some cemeteries were damaged, a situation that lasted for three years, and was arguably the first major setback of the Catholic mission in the East.

The closer it is in front of you. Because Long Huamin changed Matteo Ricci's missionary line, adopted a radical missionary method, resolutely rejected Confucianism, and strictly forbade Chinese parishioners to worship heaven, ancestors, and Confucius, he was attacked by the people of Beijing. It's just that with the protection of Ming officials, it's okay for the time being. Of course, the price of this is to communicate with Ming officials and spread Western learning.

Long Huamin calmed down. The more you think about it, the more you think about it. I feel that the more serious the consequences. At present, Catholicism cannot afford to repeat a similar Nanjing lesson plan.

He can come to China to spread Catholicism, and he must have a brain. After thinking for a while, he frowned and asked John Tang: "This person can't be so knowledgeable, can he compare you all?" ”

"I've talked to him a lot and he's really very knowledgeable. Physics, chemistry, and so on that are not available in the East. He can tell the truth. There is even something that I ...... I'm ashamed of myself! Tang Ruowang said with a little shame on his face.

"That's nothing, don't we have more than 7,300 books in hiding? You can go and read it, there will always be something that the Akito does not have. Long Huamin still said calmly.

The more than 7,300 hardcover books are his killer feature. Hidden before not to the outside. It's not a problem with the lack of translation, it's just that it will be used later when necessary.

Who knew that Tang Ruowang shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's useless." I talked to him so much, but I didn't find anything he didn't understand or understand. ”

He was afraid that Long Huamin would still be careless, so he described his impression of Hu Guang in detail.

At that time, the natural sciences were relatively rudimentary to modern people. Hu Guang may not remember, but as long as John Tang gets up, he can follow the topic of John Tang, and even understand it more deeply than John Tang.

This time, Long Huamin was really surprised. He is not stupid, if this person is really so powerful, it means that the capital of his people to preach in the Eastern Empire will be gone, and it is equivalent to being taken out of the kettle.

But no matter what, Long Huamin was still a little unwilling, and he asked John Tang again: "Paul is our faithful believer in Catholicism, and now he is a high-ranking official of the Ming Kingdom, as long as he protects him, the situation will not be too bad." ”

Tang Ruowang shook his head and sighed when he heard this: "When Paul meets us, what he talks about the most every time is actually our knowledge, not Catholic teachings. ”

Speaking of this, he raised his head and stared at Long Huamin's eyes, and raised his voice slightly: "What Paul is most interested in can be learned from this person in the future." They communicate better with each other than we do. More crucially, Paul took the man as his nephew, and the relationship became even closer. If there is a recurrence of what happened before, it is difficult to say whether Paul will still speak for us. ”

Since the Nanking Case, the spread of Catholicism has been difficult. After Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, Catholicism was allowed to spread openly because of the repeated mistakes of scholars who calculated the eclipse of the sun and the moon. If there were people who could replace them as missionaries now, the emperor would no longer support Catholicism.

When Long Huamin arrived at this time, he began to be really anxious. Some things, after one or two times, will be more difficult to come back to. Especially with the current progress and the risk of being driven back to Macao, Long Huamin, as the head of the Catholic Church, felt that the burden on his shoulders suddenly became too heavy.

After thinking about it for a long time, he finally couldn't, so he could only ask John Tang helplessly: "In your opinion, how to solve this incident?" ”

This John Tang had already thought about it, so as soon as Long Huamin asked, he immediately replied: "All this originated from the more than 7,300 books......

At this time, it was already dark, and Hu Guang in Tang Ruowang's mouth had only waited for Xu Guangqi to return home. (To be continued.) )
