Zhu Hai heard Ma Mingyuan say that his uncle Ma Jiyuan wanted to go further. Zhu Hai knew that neither of his two uncles were good people. Back then, his uncle and his second uncle were both great strategists of his father Zhu Hongsan, but his uncle Ma Jiyuan was an official in Henan, so his second uncle was the first to come to Zhu Hongsan, so he would always suppress his uncle from anything he did in the future.

If the second uncle is loyal and generous, it would be nothing. If you want to be an official, you will give it to you. However, the second uncle Ma Mingyuan is extremely fame and cannot let outsiders get involved in his own rights. Even his own brother is not good. The eldest cousin Feng Ziyong is a good example. He just said a few fair words for the Guangdong faction in the cabinet, and was squeezed out of the cabinet by his second uncle Ma Mingyuan. Now he is the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, who is missing a province in Guangdong.

My uncle Ma Jiyuan was naturally uneasy because of the suppression of his second uncle Ma Mingyuan. He was always the emperor's adviser back then. Didn't your second brother Ma Mingyuan come earlier? The cabinet position is your own? Can you not be satisfied with your brother?

Of course, Ma Mingyuan's answer was no. With Ma Mingyuan's exclusion in the cabinet and the boost from Emperor Zhu Hongsan, Ma Jiyuan's ten years have been very unsatisfactory and has been eating bananas in Luzon, Southeast Asia.

Zhu Hai just heard that his uncle was transferred back by his father and became the governor of Liangjiang. This was a job of farting the crotch of the pants. Why did he give it to his uncle? Does his father want to support his second King of Qin Zhu Jiang?

Ma Mingyuan was beside Zhu Hai's mind, and said, "Your uncle always thought that I suppressed him, but he didn't think about it. Can there be two people from the Ma family in the cabinet? Why was your cousin kicked out of the cabinet? Do you think it was mine to not tolerate him? You were wrong to think so. His Majesty did not tolerate him and drove him out of the cabinet with my hand. But your uncle didn't think so. At that time, I wrote him a letter to explain, but in the reply, he scolded me, scolding me for forgetting the fundamentals in order to become an official, for forgetting his childhood friendship with Feng Ziyong, and forgot the grace of his uncle Feng Ruoshu for promoting him!"

Zhu Hai heard Ma Mingyuan complaining here, and felt that Ma Mingyuan was indeed wronged. According to his father's bearish temper, both the Ma family brothers should not be allowed to enter the cabinet. Among the cabinet members, there is a cousin of your Ma family and a relative of the Ma family. There are only seven people in the cabinet, and your Ma family only occupies four. So what else do you have to do? Can the emperor do it for your Ma family?

As Zhu Hai grew older and matured his political experience, he found that his father's skills were increasingly experienced. He used Ma Mingyuan as the sucker and kicked him out and prevented Ma Jiyuan from entering the cabinet. Because there was no major faction in the cabinet, in order to get political enemies, these ministers in the cabinet had to borrow the emperor's authority to suppress the other party, so the power structure was maintained at a balance.

Zhu Hai thought of this and his gangster-born father Zhu Hongsan. Now the seven prime ministers in the cabinet are the chief minister Chen Zizhuang, Ma Mingyuan, Tong Yangjia, Liu Dalin, Fu Wenlong, Qian Qianyi, and Jiang Yueguang. These seven people are divided into four factions, Guangdong faction, Huguang faction, Huguang faction, Ma Da and Ma Er, and the Donglin Party. None of these four factions has more than three, so they cannot account for the majority in the cabinet.

Zhu Hai didn't know how his father thought of such a wonderful political arrangement. It seems that there is still a gap between him and his father!

Zhu Hai was thinking a lot here, and Ma Mingyuan was beating him upside down, saying how hard he worked. For a moment, both of them forgot what they should have done.

It was here that Ma Mingyuan's son Ma Shaojun looked out of the study and was immediately seen by Ma Mingyuan.

Ma Mingyuan looked at this son but his face was not good, because he couldn't get on the wall.

"You rebellious son, why are you trying to slim your head? The prince is not an outsider, come in and talk!"

Ma Shaojun lowered his head and responded. He was about to lie on Ma Mingyuan's ear and talk when he entered the room. Ma Mingyuan glared and said, "Is it the gentleman who sneaked up? Say it in person!"

In fact, Ma Shaojun knew in the backyard that his sister was raped by the Crown Prince Zhu Hai, but this incident was too embarrassing, so he quietly told his father. Unexpectedly, Ma Mingyuan asked him to say it to him in person, Ma Shaojun had no choice but to bow and say, "Father, the eldest sister in the back house is going to hang herself, and several concubines went to persuade him, but the eldest sister didn't listen at all, so she asked her father to take a look!"

When Ma Mingyuan heard that it was his daughter's business, he was annoyed. This daughter was spoiled by him. He didn't know that the wind was about to hang himself, so the prince was laughed at.

Ma Mingyuan's old face turned red and he wanted to explain to his daughter, afraid that the prince would have any ideas and whether he was unable to teach his daughter.

"Crown Prince, please sit down first. I will persuade Ning'er. I don't know if there is something wrong with this child. I will go back. Let's have a good drink tonight!"

Ma Mingyuan was anxious about his daughter, and after saying that, he got up and rushed to the back house. Zhu Hai only remembered the mistake he had made. Seeing Ma Mingyuan go out, he wanted to stand up and run away, but he didn't know that there was another Ma Shaojun in the house!

Ma Shaojun did not follow Ma Mingyuan, but stayed in the house to watch the prince. Seeing Ma Mingyuan leaving, the prince was about to leave, he quickly stepped forward and grabbed the prince and said, "Okay! Prince, you and I have been playing with each other since childhood. I didn't expect you to be such a person. My sister missed you day and night but did such rude things to her. Do you still have to leave now? When my father comes back, he will definitely take you to the emperor for a lawsuit!"

Seeing that he couldn't leave, Zhu Hai quickly explained: "Big Cousin, I was so sorry for Ning'er's beauty!"

"Okay! You'll be done with a word of sorry? No, you must go to a lawsuit today!" Zhu Hai and Ma Shaojun were entangled here. Ma Mingyuan was anxious about his daughter and quickly walked to the backyard.

Ma Ning'er can be said to be Ma Mingyuan's political insurance. If something happens to Ma Ning'er and get married to the prince, she will be hyped. At that time, she will definitely be excluded from the core of power, so Ma Mingyuan is more concerned about this daughter than herself.

Ma Mingyuan came to the gate of Zhanyuan and saw a group of people at the door. Ma Mingyuan said angrily: "Why are you all gathering here? Don't you disperse?"

Ma Mingyuan looked at the butler Ma Fu and was here, and asked, "Ma Fu, what's going on? Why are there so many people surrounding him?"

Ma Fu saw the master coming and saluted and said, "Second Young Master, I don't know. The maid from the eldest lady in Zhanyuan suddenly came out and said that the lady wanted to hang herself, and the old servant brought her!" Ma Fu was the second son of Ma Youfu, the butler of Ma's mansion in Wuchang, and was also the second uncle of Zhu Hongyi's wife Ma Chunhua, so he still used the old name to Ma Mingyuan and called him "Second Young Master".

“Who is in the yard now?”

"Several ladies are here and are trying to persuade them!"

It turned out that Ma Mingyuan and several concubines came. Ma Mingyuan nodded and said, "Ma Fu, please take the people apart. I'll go in and take a look!"

Ma Mingyuan quickly entered Zhanyuan and came to his daughter Ma Ning'er's show building. Now Ma Ning'er is already an adult, and it is difficult for Ma Mingyuan to refuse etiquette and law, so he could only stand outside the door to greet him.

"Madam! Madam! I'm here!"

After a while, Ma Mingyuan and four concubines left the room and listened to Ma Ning'er cursing in the building: "Get out of you vixen, you are the ones who angered my mother to death!"

Those concubines were all newly won by Ma Mingyuan in Guangdong, so they were naturally not favored by their legitimate daughter Ma Ning'er. Now Ma Ning'er is in a bad mood and vents her anger.

A concubine of seventeen or eighteen whispered: "What a cow? What a cow? What a princess? Isn't it that I lost my chastity!"

This sentence just made Ma Mingyuan hear it. Ma Mingyuan was shocked after hearing it. He was most afraid of his daughter. Now, when his concubine said that his daughter had lost her Zhen Cao, Ma Mingyuan thought that Ma Ning'er had just arrived in Nanjing Flower World and was lured by that wild man to lose her virginity. This is a great deal!

Ma Mingyuan whispered: "Liu Niang, what did you say?"

The one named Liu Niang was a concubine who just entered the Ma Mansion last year. She was born in Yangzhou, and was very favored by Ma Mingyuan. Now, seeing the master's fierceness and asking him, he was very scared: "Master, I don't know, but I just heard from the eldest lady that the lady has lost her chastity!"

After hearing this, Ma Mingyuan was still concerned about etiquette and raised his foot to enter Xiulou. After entering the daughter's embroidery room in Xiulou, he saw his wife Cui Niang sitting in front of the bed with her daughter. Ma Ning'er, the eldest daughter of the Ma family, was crying with her pear blossoms and rain, her eyes were red, and a red mark on her neck. It seemed that she was about to hang herself and was rescued.

Ma Mingyuan's wife Cui Niang was the close maid of Ma Mingyuan's mother Ma Feng. When Ma Feng saw that Ma Mingyuan's wife did not give birth to children, she decided to take Cui Niang to her son as her little wife. Unexpectedly, Cui Niang was very successful and gave birth to her eldest son Ma Shaojun. Ma Mingyuan's wife was in poor health after giving birth to Ma Ning'er. A few years later, she passed away and left the six-year-old Ma Ning'er to be raised by Cui Niang, so Cui Niang and Ma Ning'er were as close as mother and daughter. After Ma Mingyuan's wife died, she helped Cui Niang become a family member, which was considered to give her concubine's son Ma Shaojun a background.

When Ma Mingyuan saw his daughter just crying, he was anxious, but as a father, he couldn't ask his daughter directly why she lost her virginity. He could only shout to Cui Niang: "Cui Niang, what's going on? Ning'er was fine when I went out in the morning, why did she become like this in the afternoon?"

Cui Niang sighed, stood up and pulled Ma Mingyuan to the outer room. After Ma Mingyuan came out, she asked in a low voice: "What's going on? Why did I hear Liu Niang say that Ning'er lost her body?"

"Master, I heard Ning'er say that the prince came just now. The two of them had a good chat. I don't know why the prince suddenly became crazy and turned Ning'er in the pavilion in the lake... and Ning'er that!"
