Fang Li pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes flashed with a cold light. He stared at Xiao Yun and said, "Mr. Xiao is very knowledgeable. According to Mr. Xiao, the White Lotus Sect will harm the country and the people. How should we eliminate it?"

Xiao Yun was immersed in his own thoughts, as if he had not heard Fang Li's words, and murmured: "The so-called mob is actually some ignorant people who were exploited by demons. If the people could understand the truth, would the people in the dynasty be truly invincible and would the genius be willing to do the beheading?"

"This is also a way, but the people have not studied for a long time, and the demons of the White Lotus Sect are often hidden in it. They have been confusing the people for years and wanting to make the people understand the truth, I am afraid that it will not be possible in a short while. I wonder if the young master has a better way?" Fang Li's eyes were eager, but with a hint of anxiety.

When Xiao Yun heard that the national affairs were coming, he was no longer interested and said lazily: "This young master is just a law-abiding commoner. I want to be an official in these major affairs, but I am afraid that people will blame me for overstepping power? As the saying goes, if you are not in his position and do not do the politics, you should ask the people who are in charge of these matters? For example, Zhang Shicheng, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Fang Guozhen?"

Fang Li glanced at him, showed a meaningful smile, and said, "It's okay, it's okay, Fang is just talking about state affairs with the young master. Whatever the young master thinks, he says something, just treats me as saying something?"

Xiao Yun gave him a blank look and said to himself: "Damn, do you think I am very idle? I'm just talking to you. It's almost a beauty. Big man, I'm not interested!"

"Why, the young master doesn't want to?" Fang Li seemed to see what he was thinking.

"Of course I don't want to do it anymore. What can fools do if there is no reward?" Xiao Yun snorted.

Fang Li smiled faintly and said, "Fang saw that the young master was a generous person, so he said these words to the young master. I didn't expect that the young master looked down on us, so I was so despised by Fang. It's really-?"

"Damn it, come and provoke the general?" Xiao Yun sighed and said, "Just say it?"

Fang Li started to smile on his face, it turned out that he was taking this trick.

Since he agreed to chat, he also hid his head and tail. Moreover, he learned from later history that the White Lotus Sect was indeed not a good thing, and it harmed many people, so he didn't have any good feelings in his heart. He remembered Zhu Yuanzhang's iron-blooded skills towards the White Lotus Sect and said loudly: "To deal with such monsters, shoot people first, capture the horse, capture the thief first, capture the king, capture the leader, and treat it seriously.

Fang Li pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes, if you get rid of the leader, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals will also fall and scatter. Then, it will be strictly prohibited. Isn't it impossible to eliminate the White Lotus Sect?"

Xiao Yun was so impatient when he heard Fang Li talking to himself. He wanted to leave, but he was afraid that others would say that he was too rude, so he could only wait patiently, and was worried about how to explain to the young lady for a while.

But Fang Li said again: "Listen to the young master's words, Fang suddenly felt enlightened. But Fang Mo was hesitant and wanted to ask the young master to tell his opinion?"

Xiao Yun remembered that he wanted to leave and said impatiently: "You are so hypocritical. A man is a real man. He says something when he has something and says farts. He says something like you. He leaves something like this. It's very false?"

Fang Li's white handsome face turned red and nodded, "Young Master said, "Young Master said, you said, you said! Then Fang wouldn't be beaten around?"

"Tell me?" Xiao Yun saw that he looked respectful and smiled. He felt a little embarrassed at his rudeness just now, and his tone became much calmer.

Fang Li nodded and said, "Since the White Lotus Sect was banned by the Tartar Emperor as a cult, they have been underground in recent years. However, the Tartars underestimated the strength of these demons. In recent years, they have been in Jiangnan, through medical and divination, or trade, traversing various villages and passing on disciples in person." They recruited believers among the poor people and organized them. The people of the sect each gave silver taels and handed over to the shopkeeper's acceptance, which was called "base money". The amount of money varies, ranging from one to two hundred liters, as many as dozens and hundreds of liang. The heads of the small sects in various places have lost money to the leader of their sect every year or several years. Over the years, they have also accumulated a lot of money and their strength has grown greatly. The Tartars are now unpopular, and the White Lotus Sect has better strength than before. It has occupied many places in the south of the Yangtze River and has had connections with Chen Youdingduo from Fujian."

Xiao Yun listened silently for a while. He didn't know much about the history of the White Lotus Sect. He only knew that in the late Southern Song Dynasty, there was a man named Mao Ziyuan who died of his parents since childhood. He became a monk at Yanxiang Temple in this county at the age of nineteen. He first came to the Tiantai Sect to practice the Samadhi Zen.

Later, a Protestant sect of the Pure Land Sect was established in the Dianshan Lake of Pingjiang, called the Bailian Sect, which was later the Bailian Sect. The believers called Mao Ziyuan "Mao Master". His disciples were called Bailian Cairen, and they could marry and have children. "The foolish man and wife turned to each other to prove and lure him, and they all enjoyed his mischief in the settlements." The Bailian Sect was later banned by the official and exiled Mao Ziyuan to Jiangzhou (now Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province) on the charge of "eating vegetables and serving demons". After Mao Ziyuan arrived in Jiangzhou, he still secretly preached.

In the third year of Shaoxing, Mao Ziyuan was pardoned. In the second year of Qiandao, the emperor summoned him at Deshou Hall to preach the Pure Land Dharma, and was awarded the title of "Teacher of the Lotus Sect, the Lotus Sect Master, to encourage the cultivation of Pure Land, and was awarded the title of "Master of Cizhao, the Lotus Sect, the Master of the Lotus Sect". On March 23, Ni Pu, built a house in Duocheng and passed away, and on the 27th, he wrote "The Lotus Sect Morning Repentance Ceremony", "Ten Gates of Pure Land", "Amitabha Festival", "The Collection of Travels to the West", and "Selected Buddha Picture of the Four Lands and Three Views of the Yuanrong". After his death, he formed one of the largest religious sects that grew up to be one of the largest religious sects outside of Buddhism and Taoism.

After the Yuan Dynasty, the White Lotus Sect had been renamed the White Lotus Taoist, which was widely distributed and scattered. Most of them relied on a White Lotus Sect confession hall for religious activities. In addition to praying for blessings and longevity for the royal family and those with status, they also did a lot of good deeds and official duties. Most White Lotus Sect believe that chanting Buddha's name is the main priority and returning to the Western Pure Land as the purpose. However, the White Lotus Sect's confession halls were transferred from generation to generation through missionary preaching, thus forming a powerful alien force hidden in the lower class of the Great Yuan Empire society, both economically and faithfully. Especially after entering the middle of the Yuan Dynasty, the false White Lotus Sect rebellion continued, which attracted the attention of the Yuan Dynasty court. Therefore, the authorities ordered the ban on the White Lotus Sect in May of the first year of Zhida of Wuzong.
