Chapter 2604

At this point, he took a sip of tea and then continued: "The entire history of the Ming Dynasty has truly ended here. This dynasty lasted for a total of 276 years. The Ming Dynasty is very interesting, but few people

Let’s study this question: Why could the Ming Dynasty last for more than two hundred years despite the fact that there were so many stupid and tyrannical kings?”

I was immediately very interested and couldn't help but ask: "Why?"

He shook his head, "Isn't this what I'm studying? Among all the feudal dynasties in China, only the Ming Dynasty did not cede territory, make indemnities, or make marriage alliances. The emperor guarded the country and the king died in the country. Why was this dynasty able to do this?

I think there are two reasons. One is the national spirit, and the other is the national system. As far as the national spirit is concerned, our country is the same in modern times, even in the Mao Zedong era. It is not afraid of Western hegemonic forces and dares to attack all invaders.

As for the national system, in the final analysis, centralized power is at work, and in the late Ming Dynasty, there was a framework of constitutional monarchy, so even if the emperor does not go to court, the ministers will consciously do everything well."

I thought to myself, you have been researching for a long time, but you have only come up with this confusing result. But then I thought, historical issues are inherently complex, not only a problem of the system, but also the result of a struggle of interests. Even if

To this day, this is still an unbreakable truth.

I smiled and said: "If I have time in the future, I will study this history carefully. Old man, you may know the purpose of my coming to you today..."

But he waved his hand to me and said, "Don't worry, let's talk slowly while drinking."

I had to give up for the time being, because I knew his temper. Then we went to bring the dishes here together. The old man went to pour the wolfberry wine. He smiled and said to me: "I still think this wine tastes good."

I smiled and said: "Yes, this wine has not been blended, it is authentic."

He smiled and asked me, "You don't think I'm obsessed with money, do you? Keep the wine you brought."

I also laughed and said, "As you know, I have no taste for wine. It doesn't matter what kind of wine I drink. Come on, old man, let me toast you a glass first."

He happily drank it with me, and then said to me: "Xiao Feng, do you know why I introduced the man named Hou to you?"

I looked at him and said, "Old man, why do I feel that you don't have a good impression of this person now?"

He sighed, "Yeah. He left our Jiangnan Province and never came back, but I know that his heart is still in our Jiangnan Province, or in his mind. To tell you the truth, last time you asked me about the subway

I recommended this person to you when it came to the project. My purpose was to save him, but I didn’t expect that he still hasn’t changed.”

I was very surprised, "Salvation? Where do you start talking about this?"

He sighed, "He is an orphan. His head teacher raised him and later sent him to serve as a soldier. Then he never came back to our Jiangnan Province again."

I nodded, "He told me about this when I went to Beijing this time."

Now he was a little surprised, "He told you? What else did he say to you?"

I shook my head, "No, just tell me this."

The old man raised his glass to me and said, "Xiao Feng, let's talk while eating."

Next he said to me: "Xiao Feng, you may not know that his class teacher is a lesbian. This lesbian experienced emotional setbacks when she was young and has never been in love or married since.

However, she was a kind-hearted woman. When she saw the man named Hou lonely, she immediately felt sympathy in her heart, and from then on she let the child follow her. Although the two of them were teachers and students, they had the same affection as mother and son.

Later, the child grew up, but at that time, the country had just resumed the college entrance examination. The child's grades were not good and he was not admitted to college, so he had to choose to become a soldier. But in the county... Oh, at that time we were still in Shangjiang

It's not a city, it's a county.

At this time, the county did not allow the child to join the army, because when the organization investigated his life experience, it was discovered that his grandfather was once an official of the Kuomintang intelligence agency, and later fled to Taiwan with Chiang Kai-shek. In fact, the child's parents were also because of this

Because they were criticized many times in that era, they both hanged themselves."

When he said this, he couldn't help but sigh. I was suddenly immersed in this dull and sad atmosphere.

After a while, the old man continued: "But this child's head teacher knows that if this child continues to stay here, and if such political review materials follow him all the time, his life will definitely be over.

She believed that the child was innocent, but in the political atmosphere of our country at the time, it was very difficult to change. At that time, she was not able to see clearly the future changes in our country.

At that time, the class teacher was only in her thirties, but she was a famous and beautiful woman in Shangjiang City, so she decided to save this child..."

When he said this, my heart suddenly shook, because I could already guess roughly what happened next.

Sure enough, I immediately heard him continue to say: "So she went to find the deputy secretary of the county party committee who was in charge of the organization at the time. This deputy secretary had pursued her many times. Later, the child's political review materials were modified, and he became

For a real orphan, the history of parents and ancestors is clean.

He joined the army. Less than a year after he left, the head teacher passed away. The death of the head teacher was very strange. She was wearing a complete set of new clothes and lying on the bed. She committed suicide and took a lot of sleeping pills. There was no suicide note or this.

The orphan left a message.

The strange thing is that she died, but the person named Hou did not come back for the funeral, and there has been no news since then.

One day many years ago, I suddenly heard about him. Because this man liked antiques and told people in the industry that he was from Shangjiang City, I noticed him. Later, someone showed me a photo with him.

I recognized him from the photo and learned everything about him later."

I looked at him and said, "Old man, you have known him since he was a child, right?"

He nodded, "Yes, at that time I was a teacher at the school where his class teacher went. Later I was admitted to a graduate school, majoring in archeology. After graduating from graduate school, I was assigned to the province. I was also very young at that time, but

When I think of those things now, I feel like they are right in front of me, so close to me. This life of a person is actually really boring. Decades have passed in such a flash, and now, I always feel like I just got up a little while ago.

It’s evening, and the days go by so fast.”

I thought to myself: Maybe he also pursued the head teacher at that time. It's hard to say. But it's impossible for me to ask him this. The atmosphere at this time is not the time for joking, and such questions are meaningless. (To be continued)
