The idea of ​​coming from the people and going to the people is supported by everyone.

The reason why it went so smoothly, in addition to what Zuo Mengeng said was reasonable, was also related to the frustrated people in the Ming Dynasty officialdom themselves.

These people entered the official career with great ambitions, and from the beginning they had the dream of creating peace for all eternity. I hope to assist the king, help the country, and benefit all people.

However, the setbacks in their career forced them to think about where the problem lies.

In this process, everyone has different perceptions and different choices.

But there is no doubt that the political status quo in the late Ming Dynasty determined that without breaking out of the original barriers, their thinking and attempts were destined to fail.

The biggest role of Zuo Menggeng's appearance was not to allow them to realize their ideals again, but to point them to a path they had never imagined.

Why must we cling to the king to the death?

Why must we have hope for the decadent and declining feudal dynasty?

Especially when the sharp tool of class division came out, these people quickly understood that they were different from the traditional scholars who farmed and studied for generations.

Those people are landowners, people who rely on land as their means of production to rise.

And they are not.

Their families were merchants, craftsmen, and homesteaders.

These are people who are oppressed and exploited in today's society, and they are all eager to change their status and obtain equal power.

This was also the reason for the early struggles of the Donglin Party.

When Zuo Menggen analyzed the nature of the early political struggles of the Donglin Party from the vague and superficial disputes between monarch and ministers, the battle between good and evil, and the battle between morality and justice, for people like Li Banghua, Cao Wenheng, Qu Shishu, Huang Daozhou, and Hou Xun, For me, I really saw the sun and moon through the clouds and mist, and got the true meaning all of a sudden.

It is true that they are still unable to escape the influence of Confucian ethics, and their behavior and habits still have the nature of feudal scholar-bureaucrats, but as long as this door is opened to them, they will become the leaders of new ideas.

The birth, improvement, development and popularization of any new idea cannot be achieved by just one person or a few people patting their heads on the head.

Not even Zuo Mengeng, a person affected by the memory of later generations.

It’s not that he can’t come up with a complete theory, but that it takes a long and sufficient time for people of this era to accept new political ideas.

What he can do is to light this flame, and then invite more and more people to come over and jointly cultivate this weak flame into a prairie fire.

If this plan is to be realized, the first step is to divest the existing Donglin Party.

Let those who are corrupt and degenerate go with the wind, and those who can still maintain the original intention of pursuing progress will be absorbed. The conservative and stubborn ones are kicked away, and the open-minded ones are transformed into comrades.

It can be said that after seeing such a group of people in front of him, Zuo Mengeng was finally convinced that his approach had begun to bear certain results.

The next thing to do is to wait.

Waiting for the day when new ideas will bear fruit, take root, and flourish.

While waiting, what he has to do is to continuously strengthen the force of the new army and protect the new ideas.

He was not sure how long the secret here could be kept. Sooner or later, Chongzhen and the court would learn about it.

We must have enough force to defend these achievements before the court notices.

As for whether the chaos here would hasten the collapse of the Ming Dynasty or allow the Donglu from outside the Pass to enter the Pass earlier, Zuo Menggeng actually didn't care much.

The world is already in chaos. There is not much difference between the Ming Dynasty being destroyed one day earlier and the Ming Dynasty being destroyed one day later.

The imperial court is an opponent, the Donglu are also an opponent, and the peasant army is still an opponent.

Only a strong self is the basis for victory.

Regarding Li Banghua's arrangements, Zuo Mengeng, after careful consideration and with his consent, decided to set up a government affairs training class in Zuozhuang.

The purpose of this government affairs training course is to cultivate enough administrative talents.

People like Li Banghua have been in officialdom for many years and have a lot of experience. They have held many official positions and been to many places. They should not be too familiar with how the government operates.

With his guidance, enough qualified officials can be born here quickly in the future.

Once the new army begins to take over the place, there will be no one to send and no one to manage, which will lead to chaos in the place and actually hinder it.

Li Zicheng's lesson is right in front of us. Of course, future generations must learn from our party's successful examples.

"Brother is lying, there is nothing on the moon!"

When Zuo Mengeng came to visit Deng Yuhan, little Lu An was very angry.

Pouting, the kind that can't be coaxed.

Zuo Mengeng was stunned.

"Hey, girl, what's going on?"

Zuo Xianmei hugged Lu An and giggled. After not seeing each other for many days, this girl is obviously much happier and healthier.

Although he is a little tanned, he is full of energy and vitality, which is a joy to look at.

Especially at this time, he was wearing a simple New Army uniform, which made him even more delicate.

What Zuo Mengeng didn't expect was that he saw a little guy here.

That is Zhang Lingxi.

And he knew what was going on.

"Brother Zuo, we made... we made an astronomical telescope and observed the moon. The moon is so ugly. There is nothing on it?"

Zuo Menggeng was overjoyed when he heard that they actually made an astronomical telescope.

"Really?"

Deng Yuhan was also very cheerful on the side.

"Of course it's true. Zuo, the lenses you have here are very pure and have helped me a lot. Of course, these children are very diligent and studious, and they are also good helpers for me."

Zuo Menggeng was really excited to finally have his own astronomical telescope.

He couldn't help but hug Deng Yuhan tightly.

"Mr. Deng, you are like a morning star, bringing a different light to this place."

Deng Yuhan waved his hand gently, his round face extremely rosy.

"Zuo, it's very good here. I haven't coughed since I came here. I like it here very much. Thank you for bringing me here."

What Zuo Mengeng didn't know was that in the original history, Deng Yuhan passed away this year.

But the soil and water support a person. After arriving in Linqing, he bid farewell to the yellow sand sky and the bitingly cold climate of the capital, and Deng Yuhan's body changed.

From his current appearance, there are no signs of illness.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be no problem in living for another thirty years.

Zuo Mengeng was very concerned about him and asked, "Didn't the church ask about your missionary situation?"

Deng Yuhan smiled strangely, pointed at a few children and said, "Isn't this my achievement?"

When Zuo Mengeng looked over, Zuo Xianmei, Lu An, and Zhang Lingxi stretched out their hands, crossed themselves, and shouted together: "Hallelujah!!"

That expression was not pious at all.

I don't know why, but seeing their appearance, a picture appeared in Zuo Mengeng's mind.

A group of Western priests ran through the streets, shouting "Hallelujah" constantly.

In the restaurant next to it, there were a large group of locals playing the erhu, strumming the strings, and singing opera.

The two sides were shouting loudly as if they were competing, and the scene was extremely joyful.

This is strange, where does this memory come from?

Lu An is a child after all, and anger can come and go quickly. Coupled with being one year older, poor children become sensible early and become lively again quickly.

She pulled Zuo Mengeng to a large telescope and said mysteriously: "Brother, I saw something interesting with this thing."

Zuo Mengeng thought she had discovered some new celestial body, but she saw Lu An turn the lens barrel, not upward, but downward, and finally pointed it at a piece of white paper on the table.

Then Lu An placed another leaf on the white paper.

"Brother, I found something strange moving up there. Grandpa Deng, sister Xianmei and brother Lingxi also saw it, but no one knew what it was."

Zuo Mengeng was excited and hurriedly leaned towards the camera to take a look.

Sure enough, the entire leaf was not visible in the lens. All that can be seen is a strange area, but there are some round translucent objects squirming on it.

This situation really made Zuo Mengeng stupid.

If you don’t use an astronomical telescope to observe space, how come you discovered all the cells?

"Girl, how did you discover this?"

Lu An scratched his head and told the truth.

"Grandpa Deng was not around that day. I forgot the steps to operate the telescope and got the magnification and lenses wrong. Then the telescope tube was turned upside down. I was too weak to lift it. So I stood on the stool and tried to pull it off, with my eyes close. When I got to the camera, I saw that the quill pen used by Grandpa Deng was so scary."

Zuo Mengeng laughed on the spot when he heard the reason. I couldn't help but picked up Lu An and kissed him several times.

"Hahaha, God is really helping me!"

No one understood why he was so happy.

Zuo Mengeng waited until he had laughed enough before he said seriously: "Lu An's discovery has an important impact on changing the world. I suspect that the thing she discovered is probably the most basic substance that constitutes living things. Well, I'll give it a name, let's call it a cell. If we can study this well, we humans, animals, and plants will all be redefined."

Deng Yuhan himself was a medical scientist and he understood it as soon as he heard it.

"Perhaps we can also discover the root causes of disease by studying cells."

Zuo Mengeng couldn't bear it anymore and gave Deng Yuhan a hug again.

"Mr. Deng, congratulations. Your discovery is destined to be remembered by history."

Who would have thought that a little girl would become the first discoverer of cells through unconscious manipulation?

This discovery was born in China, which is of even greater significance.

Zuo Menggeng feels that this is a God-given opportunity to promote the progress of Chinese medicine and biology.

"Mr. Deng, I will provide financial and material support to your laboratory. Give them whatever you want. Please lead them and continue to conduct in-depth research. Maybe many diseases will be treated as a result, and countless people can be saved. s life."
