Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 606 A Chance (1)
Xia Fangfei didn't expect the Buddha mother to be so reasonable, her eyes widened in disbelief, then she knelt down again, and said gratefully: "I thank the Buddha mother for your kindness, and the Buddha mother's great kindness and compassion to the disciple will never be forgotten." .”

Lu Yue'e was noncommittal to Xia Fangfei's words, but with a loving smile on her face, she helped her up and said, "You and I are master and apprentice, why should you be so polite? Besides, you deserve it. My seat I also hope that you will be happy. The development of our White Lotus Sect will depend entirely on you in the future."

When Xia Fangfei heard this, she was flattered, but also a little elated, feeling very proud.

Especially, when she thought that the aloof Buddha mother would ask her for more and bow down to her in the future, this kind of vanity and sense of accomplishment was incomparable to anything, which made her more determined to stay in the King Jin's determination.

Xia Fangfei stood up, trying her best to suppress the corners of her upturned lips, so as not to let Lu Yue'e see her complacent look. She knew very well that she was still unable to escape the control of the Buddha mother, so she could only lower her posture and stammered: : "Buddhist mother, what are you... are you talking about? How can you afford it? No matter how you change your identity, you will always be your disciple, and you will always be a member of the White Lotus Sect. Naturally, you will fully support the White Lotus Sect." .”

Lu Yue'e was very satisfied when she heard this, and said: "If you think so, I can rest assured."

After finishing speaking, Lu Yue'e left quietly just like when she first came here, without disturbing anyone.

As soon as she left, Xia Fangfei seemed to lose all her strength and slumped on a chair.

Whenever she faced the Buddha Mother, she would feel great pressure.

However, thinking of what the Buddha mother said, she became excited again.

The Buddha mother should not lie to her. This drought will last for a long time, and food will become the most precious thing. Whoever has food will have a heart. She really should discuss with the prince, the matter of grabbing food, prince Controlled a lot of bandit dens and let them grab food, no one could suspect that the prince was on the head, even if they suspected the prince, there was no evidence to prove that the prince was connected with the bandits.

The more Xia Fangfei thought about it, the more excited she became, and she immediately asked someone to call King Jin over to discuss.

Because of the drought this year, Emperor Xiande's Longevity Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival were not grand, and everything was kept simple.As a result, the dignitaries in the capital have also begun to become more simple. There are fewer and fewer banquets, and fewer and fewer people go to have fun. Happy events such as birthdays and weddings are only in accordance with the rules. Come on, don't dare to be too outrageous.

But this is only a superficial phenomenon. In private, there are still many people who are extravagant.

However, these families, without exception, were quickly alienated.

After being on the emperor's blacklist, what future do you have in the future?
However, there were also those who came to their senses quickly, entered the palace in time to plead guilty to the emperor, and donated some money and food, and finally saved some good impressions with His Majesty.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was Xiande's 16th year, spring.

As Hui Xin said, the drought is still not over.

Huixin was reborn in Xiande's 16th year, but at this time, she had completely lost her power, and she didn't know much about the specific situation outside, she only knew that the drought was not over.

But unexpectedly, not only did the drought not end, the disaster even began to spread to northern Jiangsu, northern Chunbei and other places.

Sweet potatoes are a good thing, and they have indeed begun to spread. However, although there are also spring potatoes, autumn potatoes, and winter potatoes, they can only be grown in different regions. For example, in some regions in the north, they can only be planted in spring. One season a year, so when it comes to promoting sweet potatoes, many places in the disaster-stricken areas, such as the fiefdom of King Jin, can only grow spring potatoes. Therefore, after the spring potatoes matured last year, when promoting sweet potatoes, they naturally did not promote them here until this year. Can be planted in spring.

Fortunately, last autumn, the corn production was okay, and it barely lasted for two months.

At the end of last year, many people were already starved of food, Emperor Xian De immediately ordered people to open a warehouse to release food, and finally passed a stable year.

Unfortunately, after the Chinese New Year, the problem is still not resolved, but it has become more serious.

Even if winter wheat is planted, it will take several months to harvest. What will everyone eat and drink in these few months?Even if Emperor Xiande bought a lot of grain, it might not be able to last for so long, not to mention, when the wheat is harvested, how much can be harvested?

Last year, a lot of autumn potatoes and winter potatoes were planted in the south, and the output was huge. Not to mention, the disaster situation in the south was not serious, and the harvest of other grains was also good. Emperor Xiande really ordered the south-north transfer of grain to cope with the disaster situation in the north.

However, what made Emperor Xiande and the ministers extremely furious was that their relief food was robbed one after another, causing heavy losses.

The relief food did not arrive in time, and the famished victims could do anything.

Emperor Xian De dispatched troops to encircle and suppress those daring gangsters, and at the same time ordered people to transfer a batch of grain from the capital, escorted by heavy troops to ensure that everything was safe.

Where did I think, it was still a bit late.

Victims in many places in the disaster area, under the instigation and leadership of the White Lotus Sect, attacked the government, robbed the landlords and rich families of food, and opened warehouses to release grain. It was one step faster than the imperial court. The White Lotus Sect took the opportunity to absorb many victims in Ghana. An insurgent army was formed to fight against the imperial court.

The White Lotus Sect has its own set of brainwashing methods. The disaster victims who temporarily joined the White Lotus Sect for a bite to eat will find it difficult to disembark after boarding the pirate ship, let alone being forced to kill officials to rebel , Knowing that they have committed a heinous crime, coupled with the repeated brainwashing of the White Lotus Sect, they can only stay in the end and concentrate on doing things for the White Lotus Sect.

However, there are still many disaster victims who joined the White Lotus Sect out of necessity.All along, what the court did was very trustworthy. Many victims still believed in the court even more, and believed in Emperor Xiande.

In this way, the White Lotus Sect uprising army quickly began to grow.

Apart from the White Lotus Sect led by Lu Yuee, the other branches of the White Lotus Sect were not to be outdone, and jumped out one after another to launch uprisings in various disaster areas. Soon, many rebels appeared all over the country.
