    Zhu Youxiao in the palace looked worried for a while, and Zhang Yan remained unconscious all night, which made him feel completely unsure.  Seeing the imperial doctors and palace maids constantly busy, I felt even more worried.  At this time, someone reported that Xu Guangqi asked to see him. In addition, Li Guopu, the newly mentioned minister of the Ministry of Rites (the word Mupanjiap was not found, so he had to give it to Pu instead) also asked to see him for something important.  See you, family affairs, national affairs, and world affairs, you worry about it every day, give an order, Zhang Yan wakes up and informs herself.  Listening to these words, Xinyue and her mother-in-law shed tears. Are they so easy to wake up?  Qianqing Palace, "Your Majesty, does your Majesty know that because of the people's petition, the Jinyi Guards are arresting people in the unscrupulous city of the capital? Now everyone in the capital is in danger." Xu Guangqi asked bluntly after the courtesy.  This point is very important. If Jin Yiwei did it on his own, it would be fine. If it was ordered by the emperor, then the trouble would be big.  "I really don't know who I am arresting?" Zhu Youxiao frowned. It is normal for Jinyiwei to arrest people. Tiji arresting people is one of Jinyiwei's own businesses. It integrates the four major jurisdictions of public security, procuratorate, prison and court.  The organization and body, investigation, prosecution, custody, and judgment are all integrated, which is the prestige of Jinyiwei.  It's just that Jin Yiwei has restrained himself a lot over the past year.  But if everyone is caught in danger, this is not normal.  "Back to the emperor, the Jinyiwei arrested people all night last night, causing a restless night in the capital, but no serious people were caught. But early this morning, they began to go to the ministers' mansions to arrest the housekeepers. Even when they came to Zongdao's house, they had already  Those who were scolded by the emperor and had their official positions taken back were also arrested. If this continues, people will be in panic all the time, and the situation will return to the situation a year ago. The minister is already old and begging to return home. "Xu Guangqi did not hesitate at all.  , directly explain the situation, and then threaten to resign.  If nothing else, I really don¡¯t have time to waste time.  Now many people are being escorted to Fusi, Jinyiwei North Town. Once the execution is carried out, they will ask what happened.  It's too late then.  People¡¯s petitions.  Of course Xu Guangqi was extremely disgusted. Someone must be operating it, and he probably knew who those people were.  But this layer of paper cannot be poked!  If you want to deal with it, you can only deal with it slowly, and wait until the emperor calms down.  clam down.  Calm down and then deal with it.  "Xu Aiqing. Why are you talking like this? I didn't ask the Jin Yiwei to arrest anyone. I usually hate violent law enforcement. In the past year, the cases handled by the Jin Yiwei were just local corrupt officials who embezzled project funds and robbed the people.  It can be said that Qiu has done nothing wrong with the court officials and the good people in the capital. What he did today is just what the people petitioned for yesterday, and his methods are too extreme. I just ordered to stop it. Why bother to threaten me with resignation?"  The school was confused for a while. When he heard that Jin Yiwei was doing this errand, he didn't know what was going on.  Those who caught overnight couldn't catch the shadow. They must have jumped the wall in a hurry and took it out.  Arrest people first and go to Beizhen Fusi. Wherever they go, everything that is not happening can be said to have happened, and there is no fear that the case will not be solved.  For Jin Yiwei, such a national security bureau has its advantages, but using him solely to consolidate imperial power is indeed overkill.  For example, Dongchang is now mainly developing the surrounding intelligence network. As for the imperial power, with the Pure Army in hand, there is no need for violent institutions like Jin Yiwei, so the main function is to maintain stability.  What they have to deal with should be spies and intelligence agents from external forces, not domestic officials and ordinary people.  Tian Ergeng was derelict in his duty this time. He didn¡¯t know anything about such a big event beforehand. This is also Jin Yiwei¡¯s shortcoming, and it should be made up for now.  Hearing what the emperor said, Xu Guangqi breathed a sigh of relief. The emperor has not changed much. It seems that Zhang Yan's incident has really touched his skin. But yesterday he let the petitioners go and today he did not condone Jin Yiwei. This attitude really made him  Xu Guangqi was pleased.  "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my rude remarks and disrespect. I also ask Your Majesty to issue an order as soon as possible to quell the chaos." "Yes, as Xu Aiqing requested." Someone here sent an order to Tian Ergen to stop this violent law enforcement behavior.  , changed to a secret visit.  "Your Majesty, Li Guopu's visit seems to be related to state affairs," Xu Guangqi said with relief when he saw that the eunuch had gone out to convey his duties.  "Well, I'd like to announce Li Guopu's introduction." For Li Guopu, Zhu Youxiao quite admired him. He served successively as a bachelor of Zhanshi, a supervisor in Jingzhen, and lived in the middle of the court. He lived in plain clothes and was simple and simple.  Although he was from the same hometown as Wei Zhongxian, he had a good relationship with Sun Chengzong and had no interaction with Lao Wei.  Sun Chengzong recommended this person repeatedly, but this time the Minister of Rites was demoted and he was directly promoted.  Unexpectedly, something happened after just a few days of mentioning it. What could happen to the Ministry of Rites?  "Your Majesty, Tianjin Wei sent news that the Catholic Church, which was driven away by the Emperor, is here again. The envoy leading the delegation is Jin Nige. This time they are mainly from the Holy See, and there are also Dutch?The India Company, the British East India Company, and the Portuguese soldier Luo Paulo stationed in Macau came to the Ming Dynasty, requesting an audience with the emperor, and negotiating to allow Catholics to preach in the Ming Dynasty.  "After Li Guopu came in, he finished his salute and began to speak. "Oh, Jinni Pavilion is back.  "There is nothing strange about Zhu Youxiao. When he went to eat Guoqiao rice noodles with Song Yingxing last year, he had already heard two missionaries talking about this kind of view. "Jinni Pavilion represented the highest level of the Chinese diocese last time.  The leader wanted to meet with him to discuss the edict prohibiting Catholic preaching in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, he didn't pay much attention to him. He just met the loyal Christian Li Zhizao. Now they are here again.  It¡¯s because the person who came here is not kind. ¡°Is Tang Ruowang coming?  "Xu Guangqi asked, he knew a lot about Catholic missionaries. "Here, not only that, but Yang Tingyun also came as a translator.  "Li Guopu said, holding a list. "Who is Yang Tingyun?  Is it also a missionary job to serve as an official?  "Zhu Youxiao took over. "Back to the emperor, Yang Tingyun, once served as the censor and a famous scholar in Hangzhou. After resigning, he joined the Catholic Church, was baptized into Christianity, and was named Miguel.  The theory of "taking Western Heavenly Learning and complementing it with Confucianism" has its own set of theories.  " Xu Guangqi said without emotion that Yang Tingyun was introduced by Li Zhizao, and he had also been a religious person before, but now he is a minister of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor's well-founded talk is indeed reasonable. What's more, the emperor gave Qiuji  The palace¡¯s teaching materials are much more profound than the knowledge he obtained from Catholicism. ¡°Hey, what¡¯s this?  Are they considered two devils?  "Zhu Youxiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. "I grew up eating my Ming Dynasty food and serving foreigners, alas.  ¡± Xu Guangqi was listening, and he felt uncomfortable in his heart. He always felt that the emperor was too extreme when he talked about the Catholic Church in the past. Judging from his years of contact with Mary Dou and the teachings he learned after joining the Catholic Church, this is just a  It is just a religion that encourages people to do good and find spiritual sustenance. It is obviously different from the white lotus sect and other cults. It is a legitimate sect that can be compared with great religions such as Buddhism and Taoism.  . And those missionaries all have excellent character qualities, believe in their Lord, their God, and are quite pious. Their work is mainly about spreading knowledge, teachings and doing good deeds.  The charm is indeed extraordinary. The emperor has repeatedly amplified the threat of the Catholic Church, which makes him feel that it is exaggerated. But now, the Catholic Church has come to investigate, and even Yang Tingyun has done so. "Your Majesty, these foreigners are coming with great force.  The company doesn't know what it means.  Which part represents.  "Li Guopu said on the side. "Let me tell you that the Dutch East India Company was the first company to organize its own mercenaries and issue currency. It was also the first joint-stock company to be allowed to enter into formal treaties with other countries and to  The power of colonization and rule was exercised in this place.  It is a colonial group that can use the name of the Dutch country externally, and the British East India Company is similar.  The Portuguese military leader in Macau was the product of long-term occupation. They thought that as long as they occupied Macau for a long time, it would naturally become their land.  This soldier also means governor.  " For the East India Company, whether it was Taiwan occupied by the Dutch or the British Opium War, it was China's shame. Now that they have come to the Ming Dynasty, this game of chess is not something they can control. And the concession area of ??Macau is also  We need to see the attitude of the soldier this time. It is necessary to solve this historical issue before talking about it. "Oh, when the emperor said this, I understand a little bit.  I just don¡¯t know how they got involved with the Catholic Church?  "Xu Guangqi couldn't help but ask. "I have told Aiqing a long time ago that this Catholicism is not simple. They use missionary work as a means to influence many Western countries. There are still few people coming this time. What about Spain, France, and Italy?  As for other countries, the appointment and dismissal of kings in some countries must be approved by the Catholic Pope, and they are also very chaotic. Outsiders can't tell the difference between Protestantism, Christianity, Orthodox Christianity, Catholicism, etc.  The Three Kingdoms they pulled this time are here to help.  "Zhu Youxiao is also not sure about the power of the Catholic Church. However, the fact that everyone here is helping the Catholic Church is unmistakable. In fact, it is not only the power base of the Catholic Church itself that is unclear, but also the contradictions between these three countries.  How much less? The Netherlands has attacked Macau many times, and the struggle between the two maritime powers of the Netherlands and Britain has never stopped. However, this time they were entrusted by the Holy See to jointly put pressure on the Ming Dynasty.  "Your Majesty, in the teaching materials for Qiuji Palace, didn't it say that the areas of these three countries are very small?  "Xu Guangqi couldn't help but ask.
