The next day, a series of unpredictable events began to happen, like dominoes being pushed, leaving Ma Chao overwhelmed.
First, rumors suddenly spread in Xiangyang City.
One theory was that Ma Chao had a disloyal heart, and he put the emperor under house arrest with the intention of poisoning him and replacing him.
Another theory was that Ma Chao wanted to persecute all the Han royal relatives in the world.
First, Liu Envoy from Jingzhou Jun was forced to death by Ma Chao, and then the envoy of Liu Zhang in Yizhou was also imprisoned by Ma Chao, who forced him to reveal the dangerous geographical location of Yizhou's mountains and rivers and lead troops to attack Yizhou; The last statement is even more bizarre, and it is also what Ma Chao believes is the core of all rumors.
Everyone in the market said that Ma Chao actually wanted to kill Liu Bei.
The reason was that Uncle Liu was loyal to the Han Dynasty and was determined not to join forces with rebellious officials and traitors like Ma Chao, which made Ma Chao unhappy.
It's just that Ma Chao didn't dare to take action because Liu Huangshu was famous all over the world for his righteousness and Bo Yuntian.
He could only find a reason to drive Liu Huangshu out of Jingzhou and then frame him.
"Have you heard?"
One of the people on the street whispered excitedly to the people around him: "Ma Chao is going to become the emperor himself."
"Just take it as it is, it's time for a change in this world."
"The only person in the world who farts is Ma Chao, our surnamed Liu.
This is treason and treachery.
He is a traitor and a traitor.
He should be killed."
"I don't care.
Anyway, I know that without King Yong, we would have been completely killed by the demon king in Jiangdong."
"Nonsense, that was Sun Ce who was defeated by our uncle Liu Huang.
His Ma Chao was so proud of his achievements that he shamelessly took the credit."
"Really?
I don't think King Yong is that kind of person."
"Why not?
I think before that Ma Chao came to our Xiangyang, Liu Shijun was such a good gentleman and treated us so well.
But since he came, the devil Sun Ce has attacked our Xiangyang, and Uncle Liu no longer dares to go to the streets to help us. " "That seems to be the case," the man who had been listening nodded solemnly, and then his expression changed: "The Shadow Jing'an Department is doing business.
You gathered the people to deceive them and come with us."
"Ah, the villain is wronged" Although such plots are constantly being staged on the streets, rumors have no beginning and end, but they spread all over the world.
Especially this time, family conflicts have been added to the rumors.
In the Han Dynasty, the Liu family was a big family.
As the saying goes, Zhang Wang, Li Zhao and Liu were everywhere.
Most of these people named Liu are related to the emperor, but what is certain is that they will stand directly opposite Ma Chao without even thinking.
"My lord, Liu Bei is a quick learner."
Guo Jia smiled and held up a rag strip, on which was written crookedly the rumors that have spread all over the street: "It is made of the cheapest coarse cloth and the words are deliberately written on it."
The writing is crooked, but it can't help but reveal the sophistication of having read poetry and books."
"Well, it is indeed good.
This article alone can be said to be a crusade against our Ma family.
It is written with both strong and powerful words, strong and soft, not only showing the majesty of the heavenly monarch, but also reflecting the tension of life and death of the Liu family.
We are not as good at being filial in times of crisis."
Jia Xu nodded repeatedly, said hello, and smiled, not pretending to be sick for the first time.
At this time, Ma Chao was almost pissed off by these two living treasures.
He smiled bitterly and said: "Okay, this letter is written by Yi Ji.
If you are serious about studying, you can visit him someday.
Liu Bei, this guy wins people's hearts.
The method is really not simple, I didn’t expect that I would be able to rely on the powerful power of these Jingzhou secondary nobles so quickly.”
"Husband, what are we going to do next?"

Diao Chan was not as relaxed as the other three, and said worriedly: "Huo Jun has come to tell me that the prisons in Xiangyang City are almost full.
Moreover, husband, you also know that Huo Jun, Zhang Yun, People like Liu Pan also hold military power.
According to Shadow's reply, their movements have been strange these days and they seem to be ready to make a move. " "What else can I do?"
Ma Chao curled his lips helplessly, and the bitter smile on his lips showed a more helpless meaning: "Sooner or later, if you come out to fool around, you will have to pay back.
Rumors and other methods, we know it better than anyone else.
Power.
The only solution now is to keep waiting."
"No, no, no, Lord, we can't wait any longer."
Guo Jia threw away the rag, wiped his hands and said, "We all know the purpose of rumors, they must be just to build momentum.
Now it seems that this The momentum is not strong enough, we must help those hiding in the shadows."
"Help you mean, we are here to use the stupidest method to deal with the rumors this time."
Ma Chao frowned and looked at Guo Jia with a very strange look: "Fengxiao, you have to know, this kind of thing is not possible in Playing with fire” "Rumors only stop with the wise.
Don't worry, my lord, these low-value rumors are just to build momentum."
Jia Xu also spoke, agreeing with Guo Jia's suggestion.
Immediately Ma Chao ordered the Xiangyang Guards to kill anyone who dared to review the message, to behead anyone who dared to pass it on, and to behead anyone who dared to discuss the message.
To this end, he also sent countless shadows all over the people, eavesdropping on people's conversations, setting up interrogation stations on the roads, posting lists to intimidate, and hanging the heads of death row criminals in the city to achieve the purpose of killing chickens and scaring monkeys.
But these measures are like putting out a forest fire with a small spoon of water.
This high-pressure policy will have no effect and will not help at all.
One day later, such slogans appeared almost everywhere from Jiangxia to Nanjun, from Changsha to Jiangling, from Guiyang to Lingling, large and small counties, townships and pavilions.
Enthusiastic and ignorant people spontaneously spread and spread it.
Ma Chaoyue ordered that no one be allowed to see this thing.
The more it aroused people's curiosity, the faster this thing spread among the people.
Later, this slogan sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
Even Ma Chao's intelligence network could not figure out how it could have such strong vitality.
Everyone knows it.
Until the end, there were conflicts between the Xiangyang guards and the alleys.
Some Xiangyang guards even captured the communicators who were county soldiers.
When things got to this point, even Ma Chao, who deliberately indulged the rumors, no longer looked as relaxed as before.
"Fengxiao, are your inferences accurate?"
This time, Ma Chao rarely walked up and down the hall.
He would only reveal this in front of the two counselors who he thought had higher IQs than him.
Wait for the real move.
Otherwise, even if a hundred thousand troops approach the city, he will deploy them calmly: "I have already guessed that Liu Bei will throw out some useful information to divert the public trend.
But until now, he has not made any move, and this continues."
"My lord, you don't think Liu Bei planned to stop like this, do you?"
Guo Jia asked back.
"There, I'm worried about the two little guys next to me.
After all, this is their first time using a controllable weapon of mass destruction like Rumors.
If the timing is not good, we will have to take care of their butts. wipe" "Children are all good at playing with fire, but those two children are not ordinary people."
Jia Xu was the oldest, but it seemed that he did not underestimate Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong at all.
"Now I think it's time to transfer those two guys, Sima Yi and Fazheng, instead of you two.
At least, those two guys won't make me so frightened."
"My lord, you are frightened."
Guo Jia turned around with a rare smile, patted Ma Chao on the shoulder, and said in the style of his previous life: "Stop joking."
Finally, after small-scale conflicts broke out between the Xiangyang guards and the people, the rumors on the streets of Xiangyang finally came to an end.

This is not to say that the rumors disappeared without any reason, but that a new rumor broke out, completely diverting the influence of the previous endless rumors.
The Nanman rebels in Yizhou The first person to confirm the news was Wuling County, which is adjacent to Yizhou Zanggan.
People from Yizhou who were forced to flee for their lives gradually poured in there.
The Yannan barbarians swore to kill all the Han people.
The Yizhou army was unable to resist.
They had no choice but to Flee to Jingzhou.
Then, with its absolute authenticity and shock, this news soon swept away the previous rumors that had become more and more endless with an unmatched momentum, completely occupying the main trend of public opinion in Xiangyang.
And under the influence of previous rumors, a very unreasonable rumor took advantage of the trend.
Everyone in Xiangyang said that only Uncle Liu Huang could save Yizhou.
This was a real life-and-death battle for the Liu family, and it was also a racial war between the Han people and the barbarians.
"Let Ma Jiajun go" "What a joke" "This\that is the business of Lao Liu's family" The people of Xiangyang expressed their views in unison:
