Reborn Regent of Ming Dynasty

"I met Master Tang."

Zhang Shouren was very tall, and he was born in a military family. He was much taller than ordinary Chinese at that time, but he was about the same as Tang Ruowang. The other party had blue eyes and blond hair, a tall figure, and an outstanding appearance.

"Haha, General Zhang, I haven't taught you anything."

Tang Ruowang already understood Zhang Shouren's status and status, but this youthful general was still very polite to him, unlike the ordinary Ming gentry, once there was a change in status, he would become very reserved and conceited towards Tang Ruowang.

"Three long conversations, I have a long-term understanding of Thai and Western military, political, cultural and educational. In China, a teacher of one character is also a teacher, so Master Tang is not polite." [

Zhang Shouren's thanks also came from his heart. His historical knowledge was barely used in China. In the West at that time, it was almost like a black eye.

The layout of the West in Asia, as well as the conflict of interests, as well as the development of gunboats, the time required for one voyage and the points to pay attention to, the current situation in Europe, military development, weaponry, etc., just these, three long talks Where can it be!

Otherwise, why did Tang Ruowang frowned when he saw him coming? In fact, seeing Zhang Shouren coming, this always good-tempered missionary also had a headache.

In addition to Tang Ruowang, there are three or four European missionaries in the house. They are all young people in their twenties. They learn the language and etiquette of Ming Dynasty from Tang Ruowang. After graduation, they can go to major cities. Or travel and preach where needed.

The headquarters of the Jesu Society is not in China, and it has single-handedly controlled the layout and missionary work in China, and it has never relaxed.However, this layout suffered a disastrous failure between the sixth and seventh years of Chongzhen, that is, the Kong Youde Change.

In that incident, dozens of missionaries, craftsmen and military instructors supported by the Jesus Society were killed, and more than a hundred Portuguese mercenary officers and soldiers were killed. The Chinese craftsmen and soldiers supported by the training were either killed or became The muskets and cannons manufactured by the rebels were destroyed by the rebels or taken to Liaodong. The loss and pain were too great and deep, which made it difficult for Jesus to have any enthusiasm for cooperation with the Ming Dynasty officials. Tang Ruowang was not very enthusiastic about Zhang Shouren, a Ming general, and the reason was because of the incident in Dengzhou.

In addition to these few missionaries, there are dozens of Chinese in the scripture hall. Except for a small number of handymen, most of them are young people who have a solid foundation in mathematics recommended by Xu Guangqi. There are unique features in the calendar, and they are far superior to the contemporary Chinese in arithmetic and geometry. For Zhang Shouren, these silent Chinese are a fortune and a treasure for the future of the nation , is the most precious wealth in front of him.

In the original time and space, in the third year of Kangxi, Tang Ruowang was already paralyzed in bed. Because he went deep into the court during the Shunzhi period and almost tempted Emperor Shunzhi to believe in God, he caused serious dissatisfaction among the Manchu nobles, and in the calendar dispute. In fact, it was also attacked by a group of conservative Chinese calendar officials. In this year, Oboi and other Manchurian nobles arrested Tang Ruowang and his servants, and at the same time captured Tang Ruowang's Han assistants at the Observatory and the Calendar Bureau, and sentenced them to Ling Chi torture. , including Tang Ruowang who was already dying.
