    Daming Royal Hotel in Beijing.

    Cardinal Leo was looking at the huge world map in the room, and he was lost in thought.

    This time, on the orders of Pope Julius II, he led a large delegation of more than two hundred people to travel thousands of miles across the ocean to the Ming Dynasty.

    On the one hand, it was to express the dissatisfaction of the Roman Pope to the Ming Empire, because Hong Kong Governor Tian Erniu directly killed the Archbishop of Cornwall in Hong Kong, and also confiscated most of the property of the Cornwall Church, and at the same time abolished the Church  The power to levy taxes and sell indulgences.

    This has seriously shaken the interests of the Holy See and is a serious provocation to the Holy See. If it were not for the fact that the Ming Empire was the most powerful empire in the world, the Holy See would not even want to have any negotiations with the Ming Dynasty.  Instead, they will directly send troops to Hong Kong.

    Another aspect is that we hope to have a good negotiation with the Ming Empire and allow Christianity and Catholicism to spread in the Ming Dynasty.

    The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and a large population. It is the most powerful empire in the world and occupies most of the world. However, most of the people in the Ming Empire are atheists and do not believe in God.

    Buddhism and Taoism in the Ming Dynasty are relatively mild and do not force people to believe in the religion. It is important to have believers and it is okay not to believe. Therefore, the Holy See has seen the hope of spreading the light of God to the East.

    In Europe of this era, religion was still an extremely important matter. When Columbus opened a new route, the sailboats were still embroidered with huge crosses, holding a Bible in one hand and a sword in the other.

    The conflict with the American Indians began with forcing the Indians to convert to Christianity. All this illustrates the Europeans' enthusiasm for spreading religion.

    In one sentence, what drove Europeans to open up the Americas was gold and God!

    For such a huge Ming Empire, Europeans have long wanted to spread Christianity to the Ming Dynasty, and of course it is not just Europeans.

    The same goes for people from the Middle East and Tianzhu. The further west you go, the greater the influence of religion. This is what many missionaries are doing to spread their own religion to the powerful Ming Empire.

    But there are extremely strict restrictions in the Ming Dynasty. Foreign missionaries are not allowed to preach in the Ming Dynasty. There are even extremely strict restrictions on the time and place of foreigners' activities in the Ming Dynasty, which makes it extremely difficult for missionaries to preach.

    Leo¡¯s main task when he came to Ming Dynasty this time was to obtain permission to preach in Ming Dynasty. As for the matters in Hong Kong, they were all trivial matters, just a matter of going to a small county.

    "Such a huge empire, with such a large population, is completely dark. The Lord's light cannot shine here. The people here are so pitiful!"

    Looking at the huge world map in front of me, the territory of the Ming Dynasty covers almost the entire world, including America, Australia, and Asia. The westernmost territory of the Ming Empire has even reached the junction of Europe and Asia.

    In addition, the Ming Dynasty also had extremely large colonies and vassal states. The coastal areas of Tianzhu and Africa were full of Ming Dynasty colonies and vassal states. These were actually considered the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

    Compared with the huge Ming Empire, the whole of Europe seems so small.

    "Yes, there are too many lost sheep here. They are ignorant and ignorant. They are in darkness and want the light, but they are blocked by the rulers of the Ming Empire."

    Next to Leo, Cardinal Adrian also sighed.

    The Ming Dynasty has a population of 150 million, and the combined population of the entire Europe is only a fraction of the population of the Ming Dynasty. This makes them feel even more that they should spread the glory of the Lord to the Ming Dynasty.

    ¡°They just haven¡¯t felt the glory of the Lord. Once they feel the glory of the Lord, they will naturally become devout believers.¡±

    Leo is very confident about this.

    This time when he came to Daming, he also did his homework and learned Daming dialect in advance. He even thought about translating the Bible in the future so that it could be spread in Daming.

    I have a detailed understanding of all aspects of the Ming Dynasty, and a detailed and in-depth understanding of the politics, economy, culture, customs and many other aspects of the Ming Dynasty.

    The more he learned about Ming in detail, the more he felt that he should spread the glory of the Lord to Ming.

    ¡°The Ming Dynasty has a huge territory, and most of the land in the world is already under the Ming Dynasty¡¯s territory.¡±

    ¡°They also have the largest population in the world,sp;In the huge industrial area, there is the roar of the machines in the factory, the goods being continuously produced, the dazzling array of goods in the shops on both sides of the street, and the lively scene of crowds of people in the football stadium

    Everything gave him the most real and genuine feeling about the Ming Dynasty, which was far richer and more prosperous than what was depicted in the books.

    It is also far richer than what the merchants said, and more powerful than what the knights said, because along the way, everyone he met in the Ming Dynasty was extremely proud, no matter where they were.  Everywhere, the people of the Ming Dynasty were a symbol of nobility, and even the people of the vassal states of the Ming Dynasty were superior to others.
