Zuo Mengeng did not relent because of Wang Zheng's pursuit of death and survival.
On the contrary, in his view, this is an opportunity.
In comparison, the problem between Wang Zheng and Shen is no longer a problem.
"Kui Xin Gong, you have really gone astray."
This sigh made Wang Zheng ignore his grief and look at him in astonishment.
"Why did Zhong Heng say this? I have been self-disciplined all my life, worked hard to do good, been an official, and a human being. I have never had any evil intentions in doing anything. How can I say that I have gone astray?"
Zuo Mengeng could be regarded as seizing the opportunity.
"Kui Xin Gong, you have dedicated yourself to God, is it true?"
Wang Zheng stood up in awe and said solemnly: "I have been inspired by God for a long time and I am determined to remain unswerving."
Zuo Mengeng suddenly got angry.
"Then whose official position are you?"
The entire audience was shocked, and everyone was confused by this surprising angle.
Is there any conflict between believing in God and being an official?
Wang Zheng was slightly angry and protested: "I have been in the officialdom for decades and have worked diligently without any negligence. Even if I die a hundred times, I will have no regrets. What's wrong with me?"
How did he know Zuo Mengeng's insidiousness?
"I dare to ask Mr. Kui Xin. With your ambition, how do you choose between God and the King?"
Wang Zheng's thin body couldn't help shaking, and he was at a loss for a moment.
He had never thought about Zuo Menggen's question, and he had never even heard of it.
Perhaps this is the first time that someone has put the Chinese king and the Western God together to make people think about their relationship.
Luo Yagu was frightened and quickly changed his mind: "Zhongheng, you don't know something. God created all things in the world, and we humans are also God's blessing. This is different from the emperors in the human world and cannot be generalized."
Zuo Mengeng looked over with sadness.
"I, the Emperor of China, are called the Son of Heaven, the son of God. Mr. Luo, according to your explanation, I, the Emperor of China, am not as good as your Western God?"
A bone-chilling chill swept through his whole body, making Luo Yagu shiver and not dare to speak at all.
He had no idea that Zuo Mengeng's question would be so vicious.
Of course he knew what was going on with the Eastern emperors.
That is to regard oneself as a unique powerful creature in the sky and on the earth, towering over everyone except the illusory heaven.
I dare to say that God is greater, more powerful, and more authoritative than the Son of Heaven. I guarantee that the Son of Heaven on earth can make the blood of God’s believers flow like rivers.
This is also one of the reasons why the spread of the church in China has not been smooth.
I just didn't expect that Zuo Mengeng would use this angle to force Wang Zheng into a corner.
"Kui Xin Gong, as an official in the court, you should be loyal and loyal to the king. But if you worship God as your example, where will the king be?"
Wang Zheng was so flustered when he was scolded that he tried his best to defend himself: "Although we believe in God, we are also loyal to the court, and heaven and earth can learn from this."
He had no idea how many explosive things Zuo Mengeng had prepared for him.
"In Europe, God's servants, that is, the church and the pope, are above the kings of all countries. They kill and kill them without any scruples. I dare to ask Kui Xingong, if the Catholic Church asks you to abandon the king and be loyal to God alone, How should you choose?"
Wang Zheng was dumbfounded.
He looked hard at Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu, hoping that these two people could answer his questions.
But little did they know that Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu were also shocked.
Just because what Zuo Menggeng said is true, the Catholic Church in the West is so overbearing, it is above all royal powers and countries.
In the East, this is simply unimaginable.
Wang Zheng was once a court official, and judging from his actions, he was considered loyal.
In the original history, when Li Zicheng captured Xi'an and asked him to serve as an official, he would rather go on a hunger strike and die.
Because of this, Zuo Mengeng seized the opportunity and used the conflict between faith and loyalty to force him to recognize the reality and change his mind.
Wang Zheng seemed to have fallen into the vast ocean, with strong winds and huge waves roaring from all directions, and it seemed that every blow could bury him.
Unable to escape, he tried hard to find hope, and finally saw a glimmer of hope.
"Mr.
Wang Zhengxun fell in love with Xu Guangqi.
If we want to say that the most famous Catholic in China, without a doubt, it must be Xu Guangqi.
Moreover, Xu Guangqi also had the highest achievements in the officialdom. After all, he had served as a cabinet minister.
Many people who believe in God undoubtedly regard him as a benchmark.
Wang Zheng's confusion and entanglement were not a problem at all for Xu Guangqi.
The old man has gone through many ups and downs in his life, and he has already broken through the obstacles and gained a high position.
"Liangfu, where do your body, your skin, your hair, skin and facial features, your words, deeds, knowledge, and your soul and consciousness come from?"
Wang Zheng did not dare to neglect.
"Body, hair and skin are taught by parents; knowledge and spirit are taught by teachers."
Xu Guangqi said slowly: "Regardless of your body, hair, skin, or knowledge and spirit, they are all imprinted on me by China. This is your foundation, and it is the foundation of your existence in the world. Can you understand?"
Xu Guangqi was telling him that no matter what religion you believe in, your roots are in China, and you are a descendant of China.
As long as you understand this, you will not make mistakes and you will know how to choose.
Xu Guangqi's clear words made Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu look at him frequently.
They suddenly discovered that for the first time they understood the depths of Xu Guangqi's heart.
Unexpectedly, this person who was originally considered by them to be the best friend, best believer, and best achievement of the church actually chose his homeland in the end.
Wait, they don’t seem to believe in God very much, so why do they care about this?
Thinking of their own situation and the carefree life here, Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu wisely abandoned their inappropriate thoughts.
God and the church don't like the knowledge they engage in, and they might be sent to the Inquisition at some point.
Thinking of the horrific burning at the stake, the two Western "missionaries" immediately decided that they would hear nothing here today.
Wang Zheng was shocked and fell into deep thought.
As for when he will be able to figure out the relationship between faith and foundation, no one knows. But at least after this time, he finally stopped raising the issue of reconciliation with the Shen family.
If we follow Xu Guangqi's explanation, although we believe in God, since we live in China, we should give priority to local ethics.
Therefore, having concubines is not a fault here.
Is God to blame?
When God comes here, he must abide by the rules here.
Regarding these aspects, Xu Guangqi can be said to be knowledgeable.
He was both studying and wary of the West, but he kept it deep in his heart and only told it to the people closest to him.
But now that he is seeing Zuo Mengeng's career getting bigger and bigger and his foundation gradually becoming more stable, Xu Guangqi no longer has so many worries.
Of course, in addition to clarifying the matter, he enlightened Wang Zheng in this way, but also had a profound meaning.
The old man glanced at Zuo Mengeng without leaving any trace.
This little guy...
I will be the emperor in the future.
Zuo Mengeng naturally didn't realize Xu Guangqi's deep meaning, but since he had started, of course he had to reveal his own purpose.
"Speaking of the church, I do have some opinions here. Let me tell you, and everyone will help you to look into the details. As far as I know, the church originated from the Hebrews. However, the Hebrews were later destroyed by their cannibal ancestors. It turns out that the church originated from the Hebrews. Some doctrines are divided into three, and each is called orthodox. But I don’t know who is orthodox?”
The scene was silent and no one could answer.
Even Xu Guangqi and Wang Zheng actually don’t know much about the history of Western religions.
Their religious knowledge was conveyed to them by Western missionaries, and it is estimated that no missionary would boringly tell them the story of "the separation of three families".
That's not asking for trouble.
Deng Yuhan and Luo Yagu knew about it, but they were even more shocked that Zuo Menggeng didn't know anything about this kind of thing, and they were frightened out of their wits.
But Zuo Mengeng stepped on the right track with a smile.
"I also looked at the past of Europe and learned that the Qin Dynasty, Greece and other countries that once created a glorious civilization have long been lost in the long river of history. The history of the birthplace of the church is now even more controversial, and it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity. And looking at all parts of the world , only we, China, have a continuous history. When it comes to the rigor and authenticity of historical materials, we should be respected in the world. Mr. Deng, Mr. Luo, Mr. Kui Xingong, you have already pledged yourself to God, why not make great aspirations and borrow them How can our Chinese historical data re-determine the authenticity of the church? Perhaps the chaos in the church today can be easily solved."
This time, let alone Deng Yuhan, Luo Yagu and Xu Guangqi.
Even Wang Zheng, who was greatly shocked physically and mentally, could still react.
This young leader actually wants to reinterpret Western religions.
