Everything has cause and effect.

Although Eunuch Wei himself was deeply trusted by Pope Paul V, thousands of miles away, and granted full authority to deal with the Eastern Diocese, he still disagreed with what the former Jesus Church, which belonged to the Eastern Diocese, did in Japan.

As early as three months ago, my father-in-law listened to the report of the Japanese Catholic movement made by Guo Jujing in the cathedral of the SAR.

This report was written by Guo Jujing at the order of Eunuch Wei and specially sent people to contact the members of the Japanese Jesuits. Through various parties and systematically, combined with the many reports sent by the Japanese Jesuits to the Macau Jesuits and the Holy See, a comprehensive report was compiled by Guo Jujing at the command of Eunuch Wei.

Through this report, Eunuch Wei fully understood the ins and outs of the development of Japanese Catholicism, but when she put this report on the shelf, her father-in-law said something to Ruan Dacheng, who was working hard to complete the sixth volume of "Selected Works of Wei", which was the general idea that this report had a strong color bias, which was idealistic, not materialistic, or even self-deception.

Prejudice is a complete display of this report.

Prejudice comes from the so-called oppression of the Catholic Church by the Japanese government, but prejudice comes from the misconduct of missionaries and the proclaim of justice.

To put it bluntly, my father-in-law believes that the shogunate suppression of Catholics was actually caused by the Catholics and deserved the sin.

Because, those red-haired Japanese devils from the West took it for granted.

In terms of time, the Catholic Church has only been in Japan for more than 30 years.

More than 30 years ago, Juntachi Omura, the lord of the Homikokudo Village who was baptized, donated Nagasaki, which opened a port ten years ago and was developing into the largest trading port in western Japan, and allowed the Jesus Society to have a base belonging to the church on Japanese territory.

With Nagasaki, a missionary, missionaries from the West began to preach on a large scale. They used coercive measures to make the state and county officials of the Feiqian Kingdom believe in religion, and then issued orders through these officials to force all residents to enter the church and harass all over the country.

In essence, it is not different from the foreign devils in the previous life of my father-in-law, and there is no essential difference between the believers and the second devils he developed.

There is no need to do too much investigation, and my father-in-law also believes that there will inevitably be "relying on the religion to bully others" in Feiqianguo and other places.

"How can the power of religion be greater than the power of the regime? How can the affairs of religion interfere with the secular world?"

My father-in-law snorted coldly, even he understood the truth, how could a great man of Toyotomi Hideyoshi understand?

Of course, Toyotomi Hideyoshi understood, so he quickly issued a ban on religion, began to arrest missionaries and some believers, and took Nagasaki and Motegi back from the Jesus Church.

This made the Jesuit priests' 20 years of hard work go to nothing. But even so, the priests did not leave Japan, but stayed in Japan and refused to leave. Toyotomi's death left this problem to Tokugawa Ieyasu.

After that, it was the Tokugawa shogunate who suppressed the Catholic movement, which then triggered the Japanese Catholic anti-scene movement, and dramatically made the Han Yan Siqi become the Japanese anti-scene hero. Then, the Catholicism led by His Excellency Pang Maichen, who was wearing a purple robe, personally fought against the Japanese war.

Conquering Japan is one aspect of military conquest, and cultural and religious conquest is one aspect of the conquest.

After listening specifically to the reports of the influential believers and priests in Japan, Eunuch Wei, who had high political wisdom, summarized several contradictions.

The first point is the contradiction of doctrine.

Catholic doctrine insists that God is the supreme authority and that everyone is equal before God, which is completely different from the shogunate system where the general is the supreme ruler and strictly divides the status quo and is completely contrary to the facts.

The second point is the exclusive nature of Catholicism. Catholicism denies the belief in gods and Buddhas, believing that God is the lord of heaven, earth and all things, and should obey God, not parents, masters, and monarchs.

This is even more intolerable to Japan, who calls himself the "King Kingdom" and the Tokugawa ruler who is respected as the "incarnation of Amaterasu's great god".

In addition, Catholicism opposes the septum and polygamy of Japanese samurai, which directly opposes the tradition of the Japanese ruling class.

These contradictions are combined together. Even if there is no Protestant Christian Kingdom, Britain, and Dutch merchants slandering Spain and Portuguese old Catholic priests, the Japanese government will never allow Catholicism to continue to develop in Japan.

Even in the Ming Dynasty, even if Eunuch Wei was Archbishop Pang Maichen, he would not have allowed the old Catholic teachings to spread in China.

Therefore, only by improving Catholic doctrine, adhering to the path of sinicization, denying the exclusiveness of Catholicism, and combining God with the myth of Eastern civilization can Catholicism be truly used by his father-in-law.

Last year, my father-in-law proposed several points on the reform of doctrines in the Sino-Cultivation Road Work Conference held in Nantang, Beijing.

"The east wind must overwhelm the west wind!"

"Huangming, who ranks first in the population, must surpass the smaller population groups in the religious field."

"In the process of dealing with the West, we must be clear about the influence of Catholicism, Christianity and even major sects on the people of Western countries. If we do not fight for, control or grasp this thing, our enemies will use it."

The religious part of the sixth volume of "Selected Documents of Wei Gong" that is being edited quotes several speeches by Wei Gong.

In private, Eunuch Wei made no secret of suggesting to Guo Jujing and others that the only goal of the Oriental Diocese now and in the future is to take over the leadership of the Catholic world.

"If our parish has the largest area, if our believers are the largest, if our Saints are the strongest, why should we obey the Vatican orders?"

"Why must the Pope be the Pope be the Westerners? Are the Easterners not God's people?"

The same principle is quoted in Japan and it also applies to the Chinese (orientalization).

Japan is a miniature version of China.

Eunuch Wei clearly proposed to those Japanese Catholics that in the future, Catholicism should be integrated with Confucianism, Buddhism, and Shintoism, and follow the local customs. Only by winning the approval of the majority can Catholicism win more Eastern believers for God.

"The actions of the Jesuits in the past were wrong, and we must correct them. If we continue to do the wrong actions in the past, the harm to the priests and believers will be irreversible."

If possible, Eunuch Wei would like to publish the modified version of the Bible now, but it is obvious that it is not practical to launch the new Bible now, because the existing strength of the Eastern diocese is far from comparable to that of the Western diocese.

Therefore, after pointing out the wrong practices of the Jesuits in the past in Japan, Eunuch Wei still clearly stated that he would launch a strong blow to the devil's shogunate government to encourage all sectors of Japan to accept Catholicism and thus stop persecution of God's believers.

"Have the decree of the Pope!"

Eunuch Wei, who has always spoken up to Paul V, wishing to offer the portrait of Paul, habitually illuminated Paul's tiger card.

As the Archbishop of the Oriental Diocese, he asked the Japanese church to mobilize believers to assist the Imperial Army in the war against Japan, and asked the Japanese Catholic institutions to immediately improve the Saint Seiya system.

Those who have made contributions to the past and the Japanese shogunate will be awarded the honorable title of Saint Seizure. For example, the former Daname that came this time, Arima Naochun, the son of Catholic Arima Seizure, was named a second-class bronze Saint Seizure on the spot and gave him the great title of "Tianma Meteor Fist" as the archbishop in purple.

This is not only a commendation for Arima Naomi's secret sponsorship of the Catholic Rebellion Movement, but also a recognition of his father Arima Haruno.

As the first generation of the vassal lord of the Shimahara vassal, Arima Haruno used the official Japanese red seal ships to travel to Taiwan, Luzon, Macau, Chameng, Jiaozhi, Siam and other places to engage in shipping trade, and became a huge wealth.

After that, Tokugawa Ieyasu ordered Arima Haruno to attack Taiwan, and later, he was ordered by Tokugawa Ieyasu to burn the ships parked in Japan in Portugal. However, he was still a devout Catholic and did not persecute Catholics in his territory under Ieyasu's order.

Therefore, Arima Haruno was ordered to seduce himself by Tokugawa Ieyasu, but Catholicism could not commit suicide, so Arima had no choice but to let his subordinates kill him.

After his father's death, although Arima Naoku was exempted from being slaughtered and continued his father's territory to become the lord of Hinoe, Himeki's family, how could Arima Naoku forget the revenge of killing his father?

Moreover, the new Tokugawa Hidetachi was also very alert to Naojun Arima and always wanted to replace him, so in order to protect himself, Naojun Arima secretly sponsored the Catholic anti-scene movement with funds.

Under his protection, the missionaries in Shimabara also developed many Catholics. These Catholics, who were mainly peasants, were very dissatisfied with the shogunate's heavy taxes, and resistance would occur at any time.

Against this background, for the Ming Dynasty imperial army that was attacking the shogunate under the banner of saving Japanese Catholics, Naozumi Arima needed to establish good relations with the imperial army, whether for his father's revenge or for his own interests, especially the Ming Dynasty and the Eastern Diocese made a commitment to the interests of the Arima family.

"The shogunate is turning Japan into a demon country. Neither the Imperial Palace nor the diocese want to see this. We hope that after defeating the shogunate, Japan will be able to emerge with a kind-hearted and ambitious person to turn this land into a real kingdom, the Kingdom of God."

Eunuch Wei personally put a second-class bronze saint seal medal on Arima Naoku's collar. During a secret meeting with Arima, Eunuch Wei presented a handwritten edict from the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. This eunuch showed that the Emperor and the court had no territorial ambitions for Japan, but only hoped to defeat the evil and cruel and unkind Tokugawa shogunate. After that, Japan was still a Japanese country.

"I hope that you can contact the people of kindness who are dissatisfied with the shogunate and jointly establish a new order in Japan."

In order to show his importance to Naojun Arima, Eunuch Wei wore a kimono for the first time, knelt on the ground and picked up the wine glass to Naojun Arima.

"The imperial court will not use Tokugawa Hidetachi as the negotiating object. You are the partners that the imperial court can trust and friends that the Catholic Church can trust."

Naozumi Arima picked up the wine glass and drank it all. Then hesitated and asked Eunuch Wei a question, which was whether the Imperial Army was sure to defeat Hidetachi Tokugawa.

"Destroy Xiuzhong in three months."

Eunuch Wei gave this statement.
