Chapter 353

Xiao Xia went out. Xiao Deyu saw that Zhang Xing's face was tired, so she hurriedly served her a cup of tea, and said softly, "Miss, do you want to take a break?"

Zhang Xing shook her head. She couldn't sleep.

The weather outside is fine, but it is only the appearance, hidden in the red is already dark clouds, but it can change the sky in a moment.

They are dead or alive, Xu is just to see this, standing in the storm, can have the hope of seeing tomorrow, if they can't stand, they will be crushed into the mud under the feet of others, and from then on they can only be trampled on.

In just a moment, the sky darkened.

Lichun shouted in the courtyard: "Oops, it's going to rain." ”

Xiao Deyu glanced at Zhang Xing, saw that she was squinting, and hurriedly tiptoed out, pulled Lichun aside, and said: "I can't learn well no matter how I teach! It's so big, and it's so frizzy! It's just a change of day, why do you shout, what can I expect you to do in the future?"

Lichun shrank his head, glanced at Xiao Deyu secretly, and hung down quickly.

Xiao Deyu pointed at her, and said that if she didn't expect a heavy rain of beans to fall above her head, she would be wet in the blink of an eye. The two of them ran to the eaves with their heads in their hands, and the rain became heavier and heavier, and after a while, they formed a line under the eaves.

Xiao Deyu patted the rain on his body and said to Lichun: "Go, go, go and see if you have collected a few new cloths in the yard over there?"

Lichun answered and left. Xiao Deyu stood at the door, didn't hear the sound in the house, thinking that Zhang Xing was asleep, she quickly went to the next room to change her body, and half-dried the water on her head. Go back to your room. Zhang Xing didn't sleep, just sat at the window. Look at the lightning and thunder outside.

Rain in March and April. It's not just amazing moisture. There is also a slight late winter chill. If you get it, I'm afraid you'll get sick.

Xiao Deyu hurriedly closed the window and said, "Why did Madam open the window? Although there is no wind, moisture will come in, and the things in the house will be moved out tomorrow to bask in the sun." ”

Zhang Xing returned to the table and sat down, not knowing what she was thinking, she was stunned. Xiao Deyu glanced at her and didn't dare to speak out anymore. I only took a rag to wipe the rain off the panes.

Zhang Xing suddenly turned his head and said: "From tomorrow onwards, the Splendid Pavilion will not take over the work outside, and the vacant manpower will go to the weaving room to help." ”

Xiao Deyu was surprised. Because it is the weaving room after opening, most of the shops on their side are the embroidery work to sell embroidery, and now Xiao's embroidery has been slowly made famous in Beijing, if you don't take the embroidery work, I am afraid that the popularity that has been accumulated is not easy to disperse.

Xiao Deyu opened his mouth to ask, but when he saw Zhang Xingying's white and calm face, the words came to his lips, but he still swallowed. Yes.

Xiao Xia ran to the countryside and collected two truckloads of coarse linen back. Before he had time to unload the goods, he hurried to the door of the backyard. Let the mother-in-law at the door spread the word, saying that there is something important.

Xiao Deyu came out quickly, his face was a little pale, he looked at Xiao Xia, and seeing that he was okay, Fang breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Xia was still a little out of breath and said, "This matter can't be delayed, I need to ask Mrs. to make an idea quickly." ”

Seeing that he was in such a hurry, Xiao Deyu hurriedly brought people in, and asked in a low voice while doing it.

Xiao Xia said in a low voice: "There is already a fight in the southwest, Mu Enhou has seized the four counties, saying that the prince is unjustly killed, and it is Wu Enhou and his family who are trying to usurp the throne!"

Xiao Deyu's face turned pale all of a sudden, and he asked in surprise, "Where did you get this news?"

Xiao Xia whispered: "Can this be fake? I met our Lizheng when I was collecting hemp, this is what he told me." ”

Xiao Deyu brought Xiao Xia to Zhang Xing.

Zhang Xing listened to Xiao Xia's reply, nodded, and said, "What else did you listen to when you went to the countryside this time?" Some other sources have found out the news, and they must have to do something.

Xiao Xia said that he lowered his voice again and said: "I heard that the river workers who cleaned up the river in Yu'an dug up a half-person-high stone tablet, and the tablet read: The sky is dead, and the red scarf is in charge." The people over there have spread it all over, saying that this is a sign of heaven, the world is about to change the dynasty, and the Red Lotus King is the true son of heaven!"

Zhang Xing looked at Xiao Xia in surprise.

Xiao Xia said something: "When I went to collect hemp, I met several groups of people who were going to Yu'an, saying that they wanted to join the Red Lotus Sect. ”

Zhang Xing couldn't help but smile.

Xiao Xia swore and said, "Madam, this is what I saw with my own eyes!"

Zhang Xing smiled and said, "I know you saw it with your own eyes, but you also believe this?" Xiao Xia was stunned. Zhang Xing asked Xiao Deyu and Sun Baozhu again, "Do you believe it?"

Xiao Deyu was almost frightened to death, and he didn't know how to answer. Sun Baozhu shook his head.

Zhang Xing smiled and said, "Don't follow the people outside. I don't know if the Red Lotus King is the true Son of Heaven, but I guess that the stele was buried at the bottom of the river in advance, waiting to be dug up in broad daylight. ”

When Xiao Xia heard this, his heart also surged. The Red Lotus Sect has been in trouble for many years, and many people here in Jianghuai know that in March and April every year, the price of grain in Jianghuai and other places will slowly fall. Plants and trees begin to grow and sprout, no matter how difficult it is, they can find food outside, and the seeds are sown, and many of them can be picked and used in less than half a month after a short cycle. After a while, the melons and fruits will be ripe, and there is no need to worry. At this point, the price of food will drop a lot. Soon after, new grain was harvested. Stale grain is even less valuable.

Rice merchants in Jianghuai and other places know this market, and most of them will earn the last handful when the green and yellow are not available. It's the same this year. After February, there was not much grain in the rice merchant's shop, but the price of grain, which was expected to fall, suddenly skyrocketed.

This world is going to be in chaos.

This news seems to have spread all over the north and south of the river overnight, and the rumors became more and more dangerous, what southwest Mu Enhou set himself up as the king, and seized Gongzhou, Yundu and other counties overnight. Xuanwei General Luo Yong was defeated, and Liu Shenzhou's men and horses had already crossed the west of the river and would soon arrive in Yuyang.

How close Yuyang is to Yuxian, but it can be reached in four or five days.

There is also a Huaihe River worker who dug up a stone tablet that shows the celestial phenomena when cleaning the river, what is written on it, the sky is dead, and the red scarf should be standing. The river workers who cleaned up the river made a fuss at that time, killed the overseer of control, hung their bodies on the bow of the boat, supported the Red Lotus Sect leader as the Red Lotus King, and opened an altar on the river embankment to collect the congregation. I heard that nearly 1,000 congregants were accepted in one day.

For a time, both sides of the Huai River were alarmed. As soon as the officers and soldiers came, they dispersed, and as soon as the officers and soldiers left, they gathered again
