Chapter 276 Civilized Confidence
At this point, Qi Ge was completely defeated. He either admitted that he was an immortal thief, or admitted that his attack on Catholicism was a rash decision, which was logically defeated.
Qi Shijiao was helped back to the meal by the eunuch, and Ma Cheng bowed respectfully to the superior, and said softly: "Your Majesty is wise, this Western doctrine minister is a little more aware of."
The emperor was very interested and smiled, "This is new, just say it."
Xu Guangqi, who had been keeping his eyes closed in the distance, finally opened his eyes and looked happily at the junior who was talking, looking very comforted.
Ma Cheng pondered for a moment and talked: "Your Majesty, the Western religion is also called the Public Church, and its full name is the Catholic Church. Its etymology is the name of the public, which is the name of the public, and it is one of the three major Western sects."
The emperor supported his chin with great interest and encouraged him with a smile. Even the nobles calmed down and exclaimed that the younger generation knew a lot, and they didn't understand it.
Ma Cheng also smiled and said, "The branch that has been introduced to our Ming Dynasty is called the Roman Church. The God of Faith is translated directly, meaning God, and the Lord God is the Lord of the universe. He also creates all things, and Allah is omnipotent."
After a word came out, the civil and military officials in the court were in an uproar, and even the mature Zhou Yongchun was displeased and said, "Is the omnipotent god? It's such a big tone!"
The nobles were also amazed. This Western barbarian is indeed a person who is watching the sky in a well and the lord of the universe. His tone is so great that he is boundless. Ma Cheng stood with a smile and felt relaxed in his heart. The Ming Dynasty's fear of Catholicism came from strangers.
The fear of strange and unknown things is human nature. If you make it clear in this way, even the nobles who have not read a few books will only find it ridiculous.
Confucius said, knowing what you know, but not knowing what you don’t know, is knowing, and this is what you say.
The young emperor of the top leader was also very interesting and sneered: "The Lord of the universe, is it really ridiculous to create all things? I am just the common ruler of the world."
After the court officials calmed down, Ma Cheng smiled and said, "The emperor is wise, the history of the Westerners is a religious history, and this Catholicism is just a tool for the Westerners to educate their people. There are many ridiculous things,
As the Westerners said, God created all things and was the Lord of the vast universe, so a wise man asked, could God create a stone that he could not move himself?"
After a word came out, the court officials in the West Garden were aroused and they started to discuss it one after another. The wise man asked the question very wonderfully, and it was amazing. All the teachers and officials were extremely smart who came from the Jinshi list.
People naturally understood the Catholic doctrines and started to discuss them together, which was a bit of an academic discussion atmosphere. Even Qi Shijiao became calm and thought about it carefully with his eyes closed and his beard.
Amid the buzzing discussion, the young emperor of the upper head also savored it carefully and talked and laughed with the queen.
After a long time, the emperor smiled and said, "This wise man asked too tricky. If God could create a stone that he could not move himself, it would not be omnipotent. If God could not create such a stone, then he could not.
Creating everything is impossible to answer.”
The discussion subsided, and the nobles praised His Majesty for his wiseness, and the civil officials also nodded. That's the truth, the emperor was still extremely smart.
In the warm atmosphere, Zhou Yongchun finally smiled and said, "In this way, the absurd teachings of the Catholicism advocated by the Westerners are not worth worrying about."
The elders and ministers nodded one after another. Compared with the profound Chinese culture, the Catholic doctrine is really not worth refuting. It is not worth worrying if a scholar with a little brain can completely refute it. This is also impossible for Catholics to do so.
The root of the spread of China is that Chinese culture is too profound, far more profound than Western religious civilization, and has a much longer history. This is the cultural heritage of the Celestial Kingdom. Here are all old ministers who are mature and refined, and they will soon be in their hearts.
It is clear that this Catholic Church may be able to fool a few foolish men and women, but its harm is not as harmful as the White Lotus Sect and Maitreya Sect.
However, Xu Guangqi's face was a little embarrassed. He did not really convert to Catholicism, but just to get along with the Westerners and facilitate the study of the advanced natural sciences of the Westerners.
Afterwards, Ma Cheng took the opportunity to shake off some private goods and sincerely advised: "The sage said that there is no difference in religion. Please set up a teaching in the new army and teach the way of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism."
The emperor was in high spirits, and after thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "Accurate."
A group of civil officials and military officials were very surprised. The military officials could not destroy the Taiwan of Macheng, but their eyes turned around and naturally they would not object. It is rare for the military to set up clerk teaching in the army.
Come out, the chief assistant like a clay Buddha, all the ministry responds quickly and are already thinking about the candidates for teaching.
The banquet ended, and within a few days Qi Shicai submitted a statement to ask him to return to his hometown to take care of his old age on the grounds of his old age.
The emperor took care of it after a little help, but there was no big storm in Beijing. Anyone knew that Qi Shi could no longer do this secondary assistant. He was so arrogant that he lost to a military general in the court. No matter how strong he was, he was.
It is difficult for him to sit down in the secondary position. Of course, all civil and military officials know that Master Qi Ge actually offended the emperor. For half a year, because of the etiquette system and laws, the law has repeatedly opposed the emperor. It is a matter of time before he leaves office.
But the people in the capital didn't know anything, only knew that a god had appeared among the nobles, and they beat the second master of the Suge. This time, Macheng became famous in the capital, and the effect was better than that of Kaiyuan and became famous for the Catholic Church.
It's just a bad reputation. The scholars in Beijing are talking about the ridiculousness of Western religions, thinking that they are laughing at them. In the Ma Mansion, a group of scholars gathered in front of the gate, calling out, making noises and wanting to argue with Ma to serve as a substitute.
Master Qi Ge let out a sigh of anger.
Everyone knows that these are disciples of Qi Shi Cult, and many officials in the court could not swallow their anger. When the noise was getting loud, the gate of the Ma Mansion was open, and a pot of hot dirty water poured out, and a few were poured out.
The young master who was famous and jumped up all over his head and face. In the first month of the year, the weather was cold and the two young masters shivered and started to vent their temper. When the attack was happening, they both came out together.
The two beauties are white and the other are gorgeous, and they are Bai Qinghua Yingxue.
The white fairy pinched her slender waist and raised her eyebrows and said, "Where did the wild birds come from, but they look for food elsewhere."
A group of young men were captured by her beautiful and beautiful Fengzi, and they couldn't speak harsh words. Although the general of a town must have no shortage of beauties in the family, this quality is too outstanding.
Several young men wiped their faces and became gentle: "I don't want to argue with you, so I'll ask your master to come out."
The white fairy just glared and shouted to beat him, and more than a dozen big men jumped out from behind him, holding sticks to beat a group of young men and rolled and scattered. He drove away the door and caused trouble and came to ask for me.
Ma Cheng saw her proud and pretty appearance and couldn't help laughing. The house couldn't stay there, so he locked the door and went to Liu Zihua's bookstore on Imperial College Street. A few girls settled down in the warm pavilion of the bookstore and clamored for it.
Go out to enjoy the snow.
Ma Cheng didn't want to discourage the three girls' interest, so he changed into a scholar's uniform and walked along the street to enjoy the snow and stroll around the bookstore.
In the first month of the year, the Imperial College was resting. There were few pedestrians on the streets, only a few large bookstores were still open, and some students from other places were still studying hard in the prison. They accompanied the three girls into the largest bookstore, and the ink fragrance blew over the face.
