The titanium silver Mercedes-Benz SLK AMG shuttled like a bolt of lightning on the road of Yanjing, all the way to the north.

The early autumn sun fades away the scorching heat of summer, caressing the body like a lover's fingers, the temperature and touch are just right, so good that it is pleasant, it makes people feel soft, but it is full of reverie.

Ren Pingsheng is also in a good mood, not only because of the 360-horsepower high-end car under his crotch, but also because of the elegant and charming girl next to him.

No matter what the occasion is, Gao Yuanyuan's conversation is so fascinating, the two have been constantly exchanging words since they got in the car, from life to economy, from economy to politics, from politics to history, from history to geography, there is nothing to talk about, and there is nothing to talk about.

Perhaps because of the recent series of interactions between the two, the distance between each other has been shortened a lot, and the communication between Ren Pingsheng and Gao Yuanyuan has also become a lot richer.

Including in his previous life, Ren Pingsheng's views on Gao Yuanyuan were limited to the common labels of the children of high-ranking officials, such as excellent academics, sociability, and rich social activities, in addition to the amazing sense of her appearance and figure, as well as her sense of distance between her clothing taste and lifestyle and ordinary people.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of Ren Pingsheng, the previous Gao Yuanyuan was just a delicate vase, suitable for those top men to be included in the gold house, carefully protected and supported, as a witness to the pinnacle of life.

But through this period of understanding, Ren Pingsheng found more and more that Gao Yuanyuan still has a lot of things that he had not seen before, she is not just a so-called celebrity who only knows how to dress, eat, drink, shop and relax, her understanding of politics and economy, her views on social laws, have made Ren Pingsheng's eyes shine, and some places even have a tacit understanding with himself, so that Ren Pingsheng has a sense of confidant who has been reunited after a long absence.

Moreover, this confidante is still very beautiful, so beautiful that it is seductive, and it is so beautiful that it is heartwarming.

Because it is a two-seater sports car, even if it is a Mercedes-Benz SLK, the space in the car is not as spacious as an ordinary car, but Gao Yuanyuan has always maintained a pleasing and beautiful posture.

The little black dress on her body is a close-fitting cut, just right to highlight her slender figure and slender waist, the knee-length pleated skirt is very ladylike to cover the straight and well-proportioned thighs, only two thin and long calves like white lotus are exposed, the slender white jade feet are in the 5 cm stiletto heeled black strap sandals, two thin black belts bypass the soft arch like a crescent moon, and it seems that the bare feet are as flawless as a natural jade carving.

In addition to the orange Hermes silk scarf wrapped around her hair, Gao Yuanyuan's sunglasses, skirts, handbags and shoes are pure black from head to toe, with her white skin and noble and cold face, revealing the demeanor of a celebrity from top to bottom.

You don't have to guess to imagine how many men have been chasing her and how many men are willing to bow down under her skirt during Gao Yuanyuan's growth.

But now, this god-level beauty is sitting in a sports car with her, talking happily about the world's major events, this feeling is really cool.

Ren Pingsheng was in a very happy mood, and he stepped on the accelerator harder.

More than 1 hour later, SLK has arrived at the destination of this journey, which is located in the Ming Tombs on the outskirts of Beijing.

The reason why I came to this attraction was that Gao Yuanyuan's opinion played a decisive role.

Although Ren Pingsheng didn't know much about Yanjing City, Gao Yuanyuan chose the Ming Tombs, which belonged to the historical relics, for the location of the first trip of this SLK, which was quite surprising to Ren Pingsheng.

But after thinking about it, Ren Pingsheng also understood, with Gao Yuanyuan's family background, those attractions that tourists flock to are definitely not interested, and she is not like many women, she likes to go to big shopping malls and high-end entertainment venues to join in the fun, because those things are very novel for ordinary people, but for Miss Gao, there is nothing that has not been used, and there is nothing that has not been played.

Judging from his father Gao Weicheng's degree of specialization in the history of the Ming Dynasty, it is normal for Gao Yuanyuan to be interested in the historical relics of the Ming Tombs due to her family roots and family edification.

And along the way, Ren Pingsheng and Gao Yuanyuan discussed the most about the history of the Ming Dynasty, especially the thrilling and quadruple history at the end of the Ming Dynasty, for those historical figures who had been amazed, Emperor Chongzhen, Yuan Chonghuan, Yang Sichang, Fu Zonglong, Lu Xiangsheng, Qin Liangyu, Shi Kefa, Zhang Huangyan, Li Dingguo, Wu Sangui, Hong Chengchou, Li Zicheng, Zhang Xianzhong, Dolgon, Li Chengdong's evaluation can be seen that Gao Yuanyuan is extremely familiar with the history of the Ming Dynasty, although the proficiency is worse than Gao Weicheng and Ren Pingsheng, but it is very outstanding among women. Moreover, Gao Yuanyuan also has some unique insights into the history of the Ming Dynasty, which also impressed Ren Pingsheng.

Historical relics have never been a favorite attraction for tourists, and the Ming Tombs, as the mausoleum of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, have neither a poignant love story nor a bloody legend, and are naturally not welcomed by tourists.

Although the weather in Yanjing today is very good, but there are still few visitors here in the Ming Ming Tombs, Ren Pingsheng and Gao Yuanyuan wander in these ruins with traces of time, although there are many people with little grass, dead branches and leaves, a bleak and desolate scene, but the conversation between the two is very warm.

From Dingling, Changling all the way over, until the last Siling, that is, the tomb of Chongzhen.

As we all know, Chongzhen hanged himself in the coal mountain before Li Zicheng invaded Yanjing, and as the king of the dead country, his mausoleum was appropriately shabby and simple. To put it bluntly, it is a pedestal and a tombstone, not to mention that there is no Ming Lou to enjoy the palace, not even a decent gate, only a low gate similar to a farmhouse courtyard.

It's strange to say, originally today's sunshine was warm, but after arriving in Siling, he suddenly felt a gust of wind and a cold air, Ren Pingsheng couldn't help but shiver, Gao Yuanyuan was only wearing an off-the-shoulder little black dress, and probably felt cold, she untied the orange silk scarf on her head and covered most of her shoulders, which was better.

Gao Yuanyuan was wrapped in an orange silk scarf, quietly looking at the mausoleum of the king of the dead country who died extremely desolate and had a great controversy behind him, and sighed:

"Chongzhen is in the prime of life, hard work, hard work, at least a master of prosperity in the era of peace, but in the chaos at the end of the Ming Dynasty, he is powerless to support, unable to return to the sky. ”

Ren Pingsheng stepped forward, stood side by side with her, shook his head and said:

"The death of Ming is not the death of Chongzhen. ”

Gao Yuanyuan said:

"Oh, do you also agree with my father's point of view and die in Wanli?"

Ren Pingsheng shook his head again, and he continued:

"Ming is not dead in Chongzhen, nor is it dead in Wanli, the death of Ming is doomed and inevitable. ”

Looking at Gao Yuanyuan's puzzled expression, Ren Pingsheng continued:

"The rise and fall of any country, the evolution of a period of history, will never change substantially because there are more or less people or one or two people. Just like the defeat of Li Zicheng

Wu Sangui cannot be blamed, the collapse of the Soviet Union cannot be blamed on Gorbachev, and the fall of the Ming Dynasty cannot be blamed on Chongzhen. ”

"Things have their own internal laws, and historical figures can only influence their progress, not reverse them. So, there is no savior in the world. ”

Gao Yuanyuan glanced at him in surprise, and found that the man's expression was very solemn, and she asked rhetorically:

That is, no matter how hard Chongzhen tries and how outstanding his talents are, the Chinese nation will inevitably fall into the Tartars

In the hands of the sons?"

Ren Pingsheng shook his head and said:

"It's not that the Ming Dynasty is inevitable, it's that the decline of China's traditional small-scale peasant economic system is inevitable. ”

"The Ming Dynasty is the pinnacle of the traditional small-scale peasant economic system, the Ming Dynasty Taizu built a lijia, made a yellow book, with the Tiqi as the minions, the squire as the eyes and ears, the whole people were firmly locked in the household registration, the control and use of the peasants and land reached an all-pervasive degree, although it ensured hundreds of years of long-term stability, but also limited the free development of the people's intelligence and material resources, in this environment is unable to produce the marketization of commodity relations, the so-called capitalist germ is just a blunt speculation by Western scholars. ”

At the same time, the countries of Western Europe are vigorously navigating, Spain has expanded its territory several times, Portugal has spread its influence to the African coast, the Netherlands and Britain have successively competed for maritime trade hegemony, and a larger market provides more consumption power, more consumption capacity requires stronger production capacity, and finally forced technological innovation and upgrading, so that there will be an industrial revolution and the birth of real capitalism. ”

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Ren Pingsheng quietly on the side, her pair of clear apricot eyes became brighter, and she said:

"What you said seems to be quite similar to the development path of our country since the reform and opening up. ”

Ren Pingsheng was already immersed in his own train of thought at this time, and he continued:

"The reason why the reform and opening up has been so successful is that we have opened up the market to the developed countries and let them move their factories and production technology to China, and while we help them produce, our own technology has also been developed, and the result of this development has improved the living standards of the whole people, thus greatly increasing the consumption capacity of the domestic market, which in turn can promote production. If you think about it, China has the largest consumer market and the most powerful production capacity at the same time, which is the necessary condition for a world power, from Britain to the United States, everyone follows this path to become a world hegemon, and China's future will certainly be the same. ”

Gao Yuanyuan added meaningfully.

"The premise is that we can maintain that advantage. ”

Ren Pingsheng recalled the past, and said with excitement:

"The death of the Ming is not a pity, but it is a pity that it died at the hands of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Manchu Qing Dynasty's closed conservatism is far better than the Ming Dynasty, which directly delayed China's transformation and upgrading, and indirectly affected the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. ”

Gao Yuanyuan looked at Ren Pingsheng with deep meaning, and said leisurely:

"Sometimes, I feel like you've crossed over. ”
