Fu Shun's face was very ugly when he came back from outside the palace, and the news he said was as bad as his face, and rumors that were unfavorable to Ma Xiuying began to circulate again at some point. The content of this rumor is to slander Ma Xiuying and Shen Wansan for having an unclear relationship, no wonder Chang Meirong and the Lan family can't talk about it.

The rumors were spread by Hu Weiyong. He asked Shen Wansan many secrets from Shen Niu, including Shen Wansan's knowledge of Ma Xiuying when he was a teenager and the dividends he gave Ma Xiuying, so he asked someone to make up a script about a rich young master and a poor girl and found a drama troupe to perform. Of course, the heroes and heroines of the script did not dare to directly name Shen Wansan and Ma Xiuying, and the background era of the plot cannot be placed in the Ming Dynasty.

This plot is really wonderfully written, comparable to the famous artists of later generations.

The rich young master and the poor girl have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and the poor girl also helps the rich young master expand his business with her intelligence and intelligence. It's a pity that the family doesn't match and is opposed by the rich young master's family, so the two have to separate gloomily. The poor girl married a down-and-out general by chance, and the general later rose to prominence, and even overthrew the previous dynasty and became the emperor, so the poor girl also became the queen. On the other hand, the rich young master was hit hard, turned his grief and anger into strength, and worked hard to create wealth that rivaled the wealth of the country and became the richest man in the world. The new emperor coveted the wealth of the rich young master and wanted to take it for himself, at this time the queen recognized the rich young master as her childhood lover, and desperately helped the rich young master to say good things and intercede in front of the emperor. This scene was bumped into by the emperor and wanted to punish the two of them for capital crimes. The queen tearfully explained the reason, saying that marrying the emperor was actually out of helplessness, and the rich young master even expressed his willingness to give up all his wealth in exchange for the queen's freedom. In the end, the emperor let the two of them go with kindness, and at the same time got the rich young master's property, while the rich young master and the poor girl lived a happy life incognito.

Such a wonderful plot was loved by the people as soon as it was performed, and the plays of the rich young master and the poor girl were all praised as famous characters. People rushed to watch it, and the plot was catchy, and continued to be different versions, one said that the emperor was furious and finally killed two people, and the other said that the queen was greedy for vanity and had already changed her mind, and also united with the emperor to kill the rich young master and seek to seize the rich young master's family property.

Just when the people were talking about this play, rumors followed, and some people said about the matter between Ma Xiuying and Shen Wansan. From when the two met, to Ma Xiuying's involvement with Shen Wansan's business, Shen Wansan regularly gave Ma Xiuying money, and Ma Xiuying repeatedly helped Shen Wansan say good things in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

These things did happen, but the rumor-mongers deliberately made the relationship between the two vague, especially the profit dividends that Shen Wansan gave to Ma Xiuying as a gift from Shen Wansan to Ma Xiuying out of affection, which made people involuntarily associate the content of the drama when they heard it. Without the need for rumor-mongers to add fuel to the fire, people spontaneously substituted Shen Wansan and Ma Xiuying into the roles of rich young masters and poor girls.

When more and more people think like this, a non-existent thing becomes a real thing, and everyone thinks that the poor girl is a portrayal of Ma Xiuying. Because Ma Xiuying has a lot of good names among the people, the people also sympathize with the poor girl. But even so, it also had a certain impact on Ma Xiuying's reputation, and some old scholars criticized the poor girl for keeping the woman's way since she was married to the emperor, and she could no longer have an affair with the rich young master. It is self-evident who this spearhead refers to.

Ma Xiuying quietly listened to Fushun's announcement, and immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, most of the rumors that were unfavorable to her in the past were made up and could not withstand scrutiny, so that people knew that they were not credible when they heard it. This time, the rumors took advantage of people's sympathy for the poor girl, combined with the current situation, and made people spontaneously substitute for the character's imagination. Because people are often dominated by subjective consciousness, they are more willing to believe in the facts of their own imagination. That is, they subconsciously think that this is not a rumor, but something that really happened.

The purpose of the rumor-mongers is to let everyone know that Ma Xiuying and Shen Wansan have a personal relationship and are convinced, and now it seems that the goal has been achieved.

If this happened to someone else, Ma Xiuying would laugh it off as nonsense, but it would be very bad if it happened to her. Zhu Yuanzhang can tolerate his women being arrogant and even jealous, but he categorically can't tolerate his women having personal affairs with other men. Even if Zhu Yuanzhang still believes in her and is not deceived by rumors, Zhu Yuanzhang has long been dissatisfied with Shen Wansan and covets Shen Wansan's wealth, this time he will definitely not let Shen Wansan go, one is not good, even she has to get in.

However, Ma Xiuying didn't think of a countermeasure, Zhu Yuanzhang had already broken into Kunning Palace angrily, and all the palace people who stepped forward to ask for peace were kicked to the ground by him. He brutally dragged Ma Xiuying into the living room, slammed him to the ground, and asked, "Say, what's going on between you and Shen Wansan?"

The hideous face and cold tone showed that Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely angry now, and the anger in his chest almost made him explode. Just a few hours ago, Zhao Cheng told him about the rumors circulating in the market.

Zhao Cheng took advantage of Zhu Yuanzhang's review of a notebook, and his wording was that the palace people went out to procure and heard rumors that were unfavorable to the queen, and he felt that the matter was serious, so he risked angering the emperor to tell the emperor about this matter as it was.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he smashed the music on the royal table on the spot, and ordered everyone in the troupe to be arrested and interrogated immediately, and after listening to the confession, he was even more furious, the rich young master and the poor girl in the play obviously refer to Shen Wansan and Ma Xiuying, isn't he the general emperor who was cuckolded?

Whoever dares to humiliate others, kill! Whoever dares to talk about it, kill!

After several bans in a row, the anger in his heart was still uneven, Zhu Yuanzhang was about to summon Ma Xiuying, and Zhao Cheng told Concubine Hui to ask to see him.

Guo Hui has never been out of Jingyang Palace since she was grounded by Zhu Yuanzhang, until the crown princess gave birth to the emperor's grandson Zhu Yuanzhang lifted her grounding order, and she hadn't seen her for a few months, thinking that she had given birth to a son and a daughter for herself after all, Zhu Yuanzhang summoned her with anger.

"The eleventh prince has been able to speak, the concubine hopes that he can call his father in front of the emperor, Ning Guo also misses the emperor very much, and the concubine dares to ask the emperor to take time to see the ten princes and Ning Guo. Guo Hui lowered his head and wiped his tears and said very sourly, but Yu Guang was secretly looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's face. Although she did not leave Jingyang Palace, she never left the news outside. Ping'er, who used to serve Li Meiren, had already told her about the rumors, and said that her master would make a big move recently, and asked her to cooperate in time. She waited left and right, and couldn't wait for Zhu Yuanzhang to arrive at Jingyang Palace, so she couldn't hold back, so she took the initiative to come to see Zhu Yuanzhang.
