Master Ma was dizzy for a while, and he felt that his fate was like the undulating waves of this Bianshan Haikou.

The person in front of him, whom he regarded as someone who was about to be promoted and made a fortune, turned out to be his mother's anti-thief, or a big anti-thief who could be called a giant at sea.

That's it! He was also caught by him, and he couldn't get the hat of the glorious and wealthy official, and he was likely to be killed by the whole family in the pit!

Thinking of this, Master Ma couldn't help but tremble, what should I do? What to do? He also knows such a big secret of the family, and if he joins the whole family, he may be thrown into the sea to feed the fish now.

He doesn't want to die yet! He is only thirty-three, although he is just a small showman, but the subset of history, medical divination and astrology, and military books and war strategies are all excellent, otherwise Sun Shiyi, a high-ranking and powerful governor of Liangguang, would not have hired him as a showman to be a staff member, and after studying hard for so many years, he died before he could show his ambitions, and Master Ma was really unwilling.

He thought of the mother in his hometown who leaned on the door and hoped that he would be able to see the lintel, the wife who often teased him and said that he wanted to be the wife of an official, and the pair of lovely children.

Before Ye Kai could ask, Master Ma was already trembling with tears in his eyes.

"Take a sip!" Ye Kai handed over a glass of old, uh, no, rum.

After adding syrup, mint, and a little lemon juice to the rum, Master Ma shivered comfortably, and his already blurred vision became much clearer.

"I heard that Mr. is from Qingtian, Zhejiang Province?" Ye Kai didn't say anything else, but asked kindly.

"Yes, a native of Zhejiang Province, he is a fellow villager with Lord Sun!" Master Ma didn't know why Ye Kai asked this, and nodded lightly.

"I wonder who else is in my husband's house?" Ye Kai turned on the small talk mode.

"My father died early, and there is still an old mother in the house, and the housekeeper is in charge of the housework, and there are a pair of children!"

I don't know why, Master Ma always has some tears in his eyes when he thinks of his family.

"My husband, it seems that the road to study is not smooth, and the family is quite poor?"

Ye Kai had already noticed this Master Ma, he was dignified, there was always a sense of injustice between his eyebrows, and he was dressed up among all Sun Shiyi's masters, and he was also extremely simple.

When he was in Guangzhou, Ye Kai also learned that Sun Shiyi's staff team actually didn't have many opportunities to make money.

Although Guangdong has a lot of money, but the taxes are also heavy, in addition to paying taxes, Sun Shiyi also has to pay Qianlong a large amount of extra gold and silver every year, for Qianlong to squander everywhere and use in various wars.

This Qianlong took more, and others naturally took less, and Sun Shiyi's other aides were either from official families, at least they had fame, or they were old and had their own ways to make money.

And Master Ma is a staff member of Qingshui who is a counselor in military affairs, and he is just a showman, and no one in his family has ever been an official, and no one has instructed him how to accept or even ask for bribes.

So that Master Ma was always a little miserable, and finally met a big sheep like Li Wenxin, thinking that he could make a fortune, but he was also disturbed by Ye Kai.

Hearing Ye Kai say that he was poor, Master Ma simply sat down on the deck, and then poured another sip of wine.

"Before my father died, he owed a lot of money for medicine, and when he was buried, he owed a lot of money, and he sold his land and property and did not pay it off.

Ma was five years old, and went to the examination room at the age of eleven, but he failed many times until he was twenty-five and had a lifelong member, and he never advanced an inch after that.

Now in his thirties, he can't pick his hands on his shoulders, he can't get a name for himself as a national herdsman, he can't make his wife, children and old mother enjoy the wealth, and now he is still pinched by Ye Jungong, life and death are not up to him, this is the number of days, please kill me quickly, don't harm my family! ”

"Hahahaha!" Ye Kai looked up to the sky and laughed.

"I thought that Master Ma had a strategic mind and was a masterpiece, but he was trapped to death and the imperial examination, so that he wanted to die in his pocket, with a great talent like Mr., why not follow Liu Wenchenggong and make a career?"

Liu Wenchenggong is the famous Liu Ji Liu Bowen, who happens to be the Qingtian fellow villager of Mr. Ma in front of him.

Mr. Ma laughed miserably, "It turns out that Ye Jungong wants to be the ancestor of Hongwu, but the current world is not the chaotic times like the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and the current saint is not a dumb lord like Emperor Yuan Shun, so don't be delusional!" ”

"Gutless waste!" Ye Kai stepped forward and lifted Master Ma up.

"Isn't the world chaotic? Since Qianlong Lao'er ascended the throne, there have been one hundred and twenty-seven literary prisons, and the world's scholars have been left behind.

Six times to the south of the Yangtze River, four patrols to Shandong, the cost of money and food far better than Emperor Yang of Sui, everywhere the officials looted the people's wealth, extravagantly welcomed, I don't know how many families wept, how many died!

It is also a great achievement, and the war with Jungger continued, three attacks on Burma, strong attack on Jinchuan, the number of soldiers, the complexity of conscription, the frequency of conscription, far better than the war!

The world has been suffering for a long time, but it is only because of such courageless people who swallow their anger that they let the Manchurians ride on their heads as a prestige! ”

Master Ma thought about it for a while, and he really couldn't refute it, just Qianlong's method, if it was moved to any Han emperor, it would have been sprayed with thousands of holes!

But in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, where the backbones of the scholars were all broken, no one dared to say half a word.

Qianlong's southern tour, which was so joyful and extravagant, left the impression on future generations that it was Xia Yuhe on the shore of Daming Lake, and the leader of the Cao Gang played by Zhao Yazhi babbling and singing, "The mountains and rivers can't carry too much sorrow!" ’

Only those who were forced and persecuted by the officials because of Qianlong's six trips to the south of the Yangtze River, and those poor men who died in the service of forced labor, were still shining with sarcasm on their bones.

Master Ma could only close his eyes in embarrassment and not answer, and Ye Kai could only let go of his shirt.

At this time, there was a passionate cheer from the top of the Xiangu Temple, and a flag soldier waved the flag with both hands to report to Ye Kai, and he had already captured the enemy commander.

Master Ma was also made to open his eyes by the cheers, and Ye Kai looked at him with a big laugh.

"Master Ma, you are also a soldier, what do you think of the 20,000 troops under my command? Can it be compared to the Eight Flags and Green Camp of Guangdong Province? ”

Master Ma shook his head slowly, and after a while, he couldn't help but speak: "The green camp in Guangdong Province has long been corrupt and unusable, except for thousands of people and horses such as supervising bids, raising bids, and raising standards, there is no battlefield at all.

The garrison of the Eight Banners is already like a small people in the market, and the general of Guangzhou has no name for a general, and there are no available soldiers!

The elite soldiers of the county prince can capture Wu Shiren, who has thousands of soldiers, in an hour, and the number of soldiers in Guangdong Province who can be compared with it will not exceed 1,000. ”

"Then you look at my water master, but Guangdong water master is comparable?"

"It's not comparable! The Guangdong naval division is not as good as the land battalion, the ships can't move, the cannons can't be fired, and even the boat bandits can't be beaten, how can they be compared with the big Western ships of the county prince? ”

"Since my land division is stronger than the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and the water division is far better, why can't I do a career like Emperor Hongwu?" Ye Kai said with a glare.

Master Ma shook his head, "Because people in the world are not here in the county!"

For example, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the people were bored, the nobles of Mengyuan bullied the Han people, and they didn't even let their names come up, and the people's grievances in the world were boiling, first the White Lotus disciples stirred up trouble, and then the Mengyuan nobles killed each other, Emperor Yuan Shun couldn't even control the situation, there were many troubles, and naturally the world was prosperous!

Now, although it is a great success, extravagant and wasteful, it has not hurt the foundation of the country, and the Manchurian relatives and nobles are all servants of the royal family, and the interior is monolithic.
