When Zi Qingya came to Fengzhou, she found that the disaster was more serious than she imagined.
Fengzhou experienced a drought last year.
The people tightened their belts and the government provided disaster relief, and it was easy to survive.
It rained twice at the beginning of spring this year.
People thought the weather was good, but it never rained again since then.
After the drought this year, the crop fields became wasteland.
Along the way Qingya and others walked, except for some dry trees, there was not even any dead grass on the ground.
I don’t know how many people in Fengzhou fled to other places.
Fortunately, it snowed in mid-November.
Two consecutive heavy snowfalls have given people unlimited hope.
The plants on this land also breed endless hope.
The plum grove in Fang's family is the first to revive and bloom without waiting for spring.
The plum grove on a snowy night is quiet and fragrant.
Against the snowy light, the plum blossoms on the branches are unparalleled.
Although it is a little later than the capital, the flowers still unfold, carefully, with the joy of surviving the catastrophe.
The colder they are, the brighter they are, and the fragrance is refreshing.
The noisy shouts of killing outside made this plum garden look like a pure land.
When they got closer, the younger sister called the gate, but there were only two women on duty at the gate.
A mother-in-law came to open the door, and the younger sister asked seriously: "Is there no movement here?"
The woman smiled hurriedly and said: "No.
It's quite peaceful here.
If someone does come, they come from the front.
Grandma Yin, why are you here at this time?
Nothing is going on in the front."
She was confused, hearing that there was a lot of commotion in front of her.
Ximei said: "Grandma asked me to bring them here to guard."
Then he asked: "How many people are staying at night in the back room?"
Another woman said: "Two.
I'll ask them to come over and give me an answer."
Ximei said hurriedly: "No need."
At the same time, she led Qingya in.
She didn't want to alarm too many people, and she didn't want people to know that Qingya was here.
The two ladies-in-law didn't have any doubts, and looked at them with a smile as they went to the upper room.
Qingya and Pandi were wearing ordinary clothes, but they didn't recognize them either.
A few people went in, and Qingya entered the house where she and Fang Chu usually lived on the east side, and sat down on the kang near the window with Pandi.
The kang is hot and the room is very warm.
Because the plum blossoms were in bloom, she and Fang Chu had no time to enjoy them during the day, so they came to sleep at night, fearing that they would miss the flowering period.
Therefore, the floor heat and the kang were heated, and all the beds and covers were set up.
Xi Mei lit the lamp first, and then put out the candle after Qing Ya sat down.
She whispered: "Grandma and aunt, please take a rest."
The light would attract attention, so she turned off the light and went out.
She and Qingzhu secretly checked the place before and after seeing nothing unusual, before returning and guarding the Qingya room.
Qingya silently leaned on the pillow and closed his eyes to rest, meditating.
The cause of the riots this time was disaster relief.
After raising so much money, disaster relief is still difficult.

This may sound unbelievable, but it's true.
Because of Fang Chu's commercial disaster relief plan, with the full operation of the imperial court and brocade merchants, merchants from all over the country started to move and shipped a lot of grain to Fengzhou.
The imperial court also successively allocated disaster relief funds and opened military reserve granaries for emergency relief.
However, various places in Fengzhou were still Starving people everywhere.
The heavy snow gave people hope, but also made many victims despair.
This winter's heavy snowfall has become the straw that breaks the camel's back.
Corrupt officials add insult to injury.
Throughout the ages, there has been no shortage of corrupt officials in any dynasty, and there is no shortage of corrupt officials to kill.
They are everywhere, their corrupt methods are endless, and they can scratch three layers of land.
The Fengzhou disaster happened.
Officials in Fengzhou were originally in the most difficult situation.
They had no political achievements and no money to make money.
Later, the disaster became an excuse and means for them to accumulate wealth.
A steady stream of money was allocated from above and food came.
Rich businessmen also came There is an idiom called "Yang Feng Yin Wei".
No matter how much Emperor Shunchang loved the people, after the successive imperial edicts were issued, they were also implemented differently.
Of course, the government does a good job on the surface, but the people don't get the benefits.
The Fang family and other wealthy businessmen were actually providing disaster relief, and all the food they shipped was distributed to the victims.
Along with the food, a document was sent to them.
The deacons of the Fang family told them: As long as there is a woman in their family who is good at weaving, and they come to work in the Fang family's workshop with this document, they will not only have food to eat, but they will also receive a ration for the coming year and food for spring plowing, and have the opportunity to become a member of the Fang family.
With long-term employees, it will not be a problem to support their families in the future.
This is work-for-relief.
If someone is greedy for cheap and takes the food without looking back, it doesn't matter.
He also loses the opportunity to work in the Fang family.
The Fang family will not hold him accountable and will only regard it as a good deed this time.
Fang Chu's calculations are based on people's hearts.
As long as they are good people, they will turn around.
However, people's hearts are complicated, and he still underestimated the destructive power of Fengzhou local government.
The affected area was vast, and local officials failed to provide disaster relief, which eventually led to a major disaster.
Many wealthy merchants distributed food in and around Fengzhou City, and imperial envoys were also stationed in Fengzhou City.
Officials in Fengzhou City did not dare to blatantly do tricks, and the situation was much better than that in surrounding prefectures and counties.
Victims from neighboring prefectures and counties who were driven to despair by the heavy snow came here to seek a way out; mobs and bandits also infiltrated the city, and there were many large households in the city, so they could use the unrest of the victims to rob.
There was turmoil in the evening, and the Fang family was the first to bear the brunt.
Everything has its pros and cons, and the Fang family suffers because Zhinu's reputation is too great.
It goes without saying that the great reputation brings benefits to the Fang family, but the disadvantages are also obvious.
Qingya did not panic or fear the sudden riots outside.
This does not mean that she has the ability to strategize, so she is confident.
The main reason was that Fang Chu had manpower at home, and she also had people around her.
These people reacted quickly and confronted the mob thugs.
After the incident, Qingya had been thinking of a way.
Unfortunately, everyone's talent was limited.
She thought for a long time but couldn't think of any good way to deal with the enemy, so she could only be protected.
She is calm because she has experienced dangerous situations similar to this one.
For example, when she was accused of being a monster, although many people believed her, many kind-hearted people were afraid that she was really a monster, and she was almost burned to death.
Another example is that after she was kidnapped by Wei Zhao, her soul was almost changed by Pudu, and her escape from the underground was also thrilling.

After experiencing those things, she was able to calm down and face the battle before her.
Although she is not capable of commanding the battle, she will not sit back and let others slaughter her.
Before she escaped from Wei Zhao's Feixu Pavilion, she didn't forget to kick Wei Zhao; when she was chased at the charity center that day, she also relied on her own advantages to subdue the assassin.
She asked her younger sister for a dagger and hid it in her sleeve just in case something unexpected happened.
Qingya is not worried about herself, but is very worried about Fang Chu.
I don’t know what the situation is like outside.
I don’t know how long it took, but the sound outside became quieter.
Qingya looked up and saw a dark figure at the door.
Seeing that she was a young girl, she asked, "Have you stopped?"
Xi Mei listened carefully and said, "Stop."
Pandi took a nap and woke up at this time and said angrily: "These people are really ignorant."
Regarding this, Qingya doesn’t know how to evaluate it.
When life is not guaranteed, all social order is in chaos, and morality and law can no longer be used to restrain people.
Rebellion, killing the rich and helping the poor have become people's hope and instinct for survival.
Qingzhu and Shuizhu were guarding the concierge, chatting with the two women and paying attention to the surroundings.
They also noticed that the voices in front of them were quieter.
Instead of relaxing, they became more vigilant.
Inside the house, Qingya stood up and walked out quietly.
She had been in the dark for so long that her eyes had already adapted to the darkness.
The younger sister hurriedly asked: "Where is grandma going?"
He said quietly: "Go to Baoxia's small study room."
There are two plum blossoms planted outside the window of a house in Houbaoxia, which also bloomed the day before yesterday.
Fang Chu ordered people to move some books in, and moved a small couch in.
A desk and chairs were also placed in front of the window.
It was said to be a small study room, where you could enjoy the plum blossoms by the window and the subtle fragrance filling your sleeves, which was a unique feeling.
Qingya thought of Fang Chu and wanted to go and have a look.
Xi Mei understood and said, "Wait until I light the lamp."
Qingya stopped and waited for her.
When the younger sister came over with a glass lotus lantern, Pandi also came, and the three of them went over together.
Xiimei went into the house first and stood by the door, holding a lamp and stepping aside to illuminate Qingya.
Qing Ya went in, and with a casual glance, he fixed his eyes on the couch in front of him.
His eyes suddenly widened in fear as Optimus Prime suddenly crashed into his field of vision.
