Chapter 901 Zhao Bingyu doesn't like Bai Lu and wants to kill her
Bai Lu hurriedly wrote again: "Where is my mother?"
"Option A, within Dawu."
"Option B is not in Dawu, but in the Western Regions."
"Option C: You don't know where she is now."
After Shen Lanhua heard this, she nodded three times. Option C. She also didn't know where Zhao Bingyu was now.
At this time, Xu Xian kicked the old woman hard, and the old woman screamed in pain.
Xu Xian frowned and said to Bai Lu, "This old woman is lying, she clearly knows it!"
Xu Xian rolled his eyes twice and said, "Oh, you still know how to lie. It seems I didn't beat you enough!"
"I'll beat the shit out of you, and then you can tell me again! I'll see if you keep on being honest!"
After Xu Xian finished speaking, everyone couldn't help but twitch their lips.
Hey, what a grumpy little loli!
The veins on Shen Lanhua's forehead kept twitching. She felt extremely desperate and cursed in her heart: "Damn, where did this little bastard come from!"
These people actually beat themselves into this state!
You know, when he was with Zhao Bingyu before, even Zhao Bingyu, who was of noble status, didn't do anything to him.
Not to mention hitting myself, I have never even scolded myself.
He never even spoke loudly.
Tears welled up in Shen Lanhua's cloudy eyes as she looked at the two options that reappeared before her, Option A and Option B.
Finally, he nodded twice: "Option B."
Zhao Bingyu is not in Dawu, but in the Western Regions!
Bai Lu's heart trembled, and she immediately wrote on the paper: "So which country in the Western Regions is my mother in now?" "A. Daqin, B. Dashi, C. Persia, D. Ryukyu..."
There are many countries in the Western Regions. Bai Lu first wrote down four of them and asked Shen Lanhua to identify them slowly.
After reading these four options, Shen Lanhua shook her head.
It seems that Zhao Bingyu is not in these four countries.
The Queen Mother was also anxious, so she rushed to Bai Lu and helped him write down other countries.
Among the more than 20 countries, all the Western Region countries that can be named and are not small countries are written down.
Shen Lanhua was stared at by Xu Xian and Xi Gongzi, but she still shook her head.
It seems that Zhao Bingyu is not in any country.
"What do the other small countries in the Western Regions have?" Bai Lu turned to look at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother frowned and said to Bai Lu, "Specifically... well, I don't know either."
"How about this, I'll have someone fetch the Western Regions feng shui map. You wait here for a while. Once they get the map, we'll ask them."
This feng shui map is extremely precious and must be retrieved from the palace. It can only be found in the emperor's study and is not available anywhere else.
"But how do we tell His Majesty?"
Bai Lu was a little distressed.
The Queen Mother laughed and said to her, "You don't have to tell her anything. Just say we are going to the Western Regions to do business. I want to see a geomancy map. The Emperor will give it to me."
"After all, I'm his mother, so even if I don't give it to you, it won't matter. But if you want to see the feng shui map, the nature of the matter is different."
In just half an hour, they got the feng shui map back.
After retrieving them, he reported the names of the remaining forty or so small countries to Shen Lanhua one by one.
But she shook her head and denied any of them.
"Could it be... that this old fellow lied?" The Queen Mother fell into deep thought. "If she's not in Dawu, then she should be in the Western Regions... How could there be no country where she lives?"
At this time, Xu Xian and Xi Gongzi looked at each other and said, "She shouldn't be lying. If she was lying, we would have noticed it."
"Yes." Bai Lu nodded, "I believe in the abilities of Miss Xu Xian and Master Xi."
The system must be able to tell whether an ordinary person is lying or not.
It seems that Shen Lanhua did not lie.
Bai Lu's mother is not in Dawu, but in the Western Regions, but no one knows which country in the Western Regions she is.
Could it be... Bai Lu fell into deep thought, and suddenly thought of something she shouldn't have thought of: her mother was a time traveler, could it be that she was in modern times now?
Thinking of this, Bai Lu felt a chill in her heart and looked directly at the Queen Mother.
The Queen Mother seemed to have thought of this as well. She turned her head to look at Bai Lu, her expression gradually becoming serious.
"..."
After sending everyone around away, Bai Lu wrote two words on a piece of paper. "Huaxia!"
Then he asked, "Tell me, is my mother here?"
She pointed to the word "Huaxia" and showed it to Shen Lanhua.
Shen Lanhua took a look and immediately shook her head: "Not here."
Her mother is not in China?
So where is it?
Bai Lu and the Queen Mother were stunned. They thought what they thought was right, but they turned out to be wrong. Even Hua Xia was not there.
"Oh, where is Bingyu?" The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little anxious. She sighed and said, "If she were still alive, she could come back to attend her two sons' weddings. That would be great!"
"How happy you brothers and sisters must be..."
"Especially Chu Yao... he wouldn't have to feel so guilty all the time."
The Queen Mother sighed deeply and looked unhappy.
Bai Lu fell silent and asked the Queen Mother, "No, no, we must have missed something..."
"Shen Lanhua can confirm that my mother is in the Western Regions, but she doesn't know where she is..."
"That means..." Bai Lu's mind raced, and she immediately understood. She suddenly laughed, her smile as beautiful as a flower, and was truly stunning.
She said to the Queen Mother and the others, "That means my mother has been to every place. She's not stuck in one place, but is traveling all over the country, going everywhere!"
The Queen Mother's eyes also lit up: "Oh, that makes sense!"
"Could it be that she went on a business trip?!"
Everyone remembered that an uncle of Sun Nanxing's had gone to the Western Regions as a trader and had said that he had met someone there who looked very similar to Zhao Bingyu...
Maybe Zhao Bingyu is really doing business in the Western Regions.
She goes everywhere, she has no fixed place, doesn't that make it all right?!
Bai Lu was happy, wrote the word "merchant" on a piece of paper, and asked Shen Lanhua.
Shen Lanhua was silent for a moment, then nodded with great difficulty.
It’s just as they said!
Bai Lu sighed deeply, feeling a sense of uncertainty in her heart. She slowly said, "That is to say, Shen Lanhua doesn't know where my mother is now."
"She has been in Dawu for quite some time, at least half a year or a year, so she can't keep up with my mother's traveling merchant team."
The Queen Mother nodded and said, "You make a lot of sense."
"But I find it strange. Why would this old woman follow you and harm you?"
The Queen Mother fell into deep thought and wrote on the paper: "Are you and Zhao Bingyu on good terms now?"
Shen Lanhua nodded, meaning that they had a good relationship.
"We have a good relationship, so why would you want to harm Bai Lu?"
The Queen Mother wrote the question on the paper again, but Shen Lanhua was unable to answer it. No matter which option she chose, it was wrong.
Half an hour passed quickly.
The Queen Mother was so busy that her head was buzzing. She felt her mind was in a mess. She said to Bai Lu, "Alas, I've been asking for over half an hour and still can't find out! How about we take a break first?"
"I want to eat the chicken noodle soup you made. Can you make some for me?"
The Empress Dowager is old and her physical strength is indeed not good enough.
Bai Lu was fine, but the Queen Mother seemed to have a headache.
Bai Lu smiled, smoothed the Queen Mother's hair and said, "Don't worry, I'll make you some vegetarian chicken noodle soup. Let's take a rest first."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left, leaving only the Queen Mother, Shen Lanhua, Xu Xian and Master Xi in the room.
The Queen Mother turned her head to glance at Master Xi and Xu Xian, smiled slightly and said, "We are all family, there are some things I will say to your face."
"What do you want to say?" Xu Xian and Master Xi really didn't expect that the Queen Mother would send Bai Lu away and talk to them alone.
The two men looked alert and said to the Queen Mother, "But Bai Lu is one of us too!"
"It's precisely because I consider her one of my own that I can't say these words to her face. It's too hurtful." The Queen Mother frowned and said to Xu Xian and Master Xi, "Don't tell Bai Lu about what we discussed in private today."
"I secretly asked Shen Lanhua a question." As she spoke, she quickly wrote a line of big words on the paper.
Xu Xian and Master Xi took one look at each other and were stunned.
The words written on the paper were, "Could it be that Zhao Bingyu hates Bai Lu and wants to kill her?"
As soon as the paper was raised, Shen Lanhua nodded silently.
Xu Xian and Master Xi's hearts suddenly trembled. They could feel that Shen Lanhua was not lying.
So Zhao Bingyu really hates Bai Lu?
"She hates Bai Lu???"
"Why would a mother hate her own daughter?"
"How can this be?!"
Xu Xian and Master Xi exchanged a glance, "Her Majesty, have you noticed this already?"
The Queen Mother sighed and said, "It's just as I thought. It seems Shen Lanhua already knew something."
She shook her head and sighed, "If that's the case, I understand."
"Do you understand everything?" She said to the two of them, "That's why I told you not to tell Bai Lu about this. If she knew, she would definitely be very sad."
"I deliberately sent her away before I dared to ask this."
"What is going on?" Xu Xian and Master Xi asked hurriedly.
Then the Queen Mother slowly said, "Bingyu and Bai Yansong's relationship was extremely bad, and Bai Lu was born at that time."
"If Bingyu had died then, we could still assume she loved Bailu. But she survived, leaving behind such a large family business and even her own children. She has been in Dawu for over ten or twenty years without caring about them. This proves that Bingyu doesn't necessarily love Bailu and the others."
"So Bailu was born at such a critical moment. Bingyu might hate her."
"Bingyu doesn't like her own experience, so she doesn't like her daughter either."
Although the probability of this happening is small, it does exist.
In modern times, the Queen Mother has seen several similar cases, such as a woman giving birth to a rapist's daughter. Should she like the child?
Now the relationship between Zhao Bingyu and Bai Yansong is extremely bad. She thinks Bai Yansong is a villain and her enemy. If she gives birth to her enemy's daughter, will she definitely like her?
Maybe not!
Zhao Bingyu's hatred of evil is the same as Bai Lu's.
And she is from the modern era, so she probably won't like Bai Lu.
The Queen Mother fell into a long silence, then said to Xu Xian and Master Xi: "Keep this matter to yourself!"
"And you, Shen Lanhua, if you tell anyone about this, I'll kill you!"
A fierce light flashed in the empress dowager's eyes, which scared Shen Lanhua.
Shen Lanhua nodded hurriedly.
Seeing her nod, the Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction.
Not long after, Bai Lu brought in a bowl of vegetarian chicken noodle soup for the Queen Mother, and the aroma filled her nose.
The Queen Mother's originally frowned brows relaxed slightly when she was surrounded by the warm fragrance.
My eyes fell on the blue and white bowl, where thin white noodles lay in the light yellow soup. The chicken thighs were cut into even thicknesses, soaking up the soup and shining with oil.
The chopped green onions sprinkled on top are bright green, and even the heat is wrapped in the freshness of the chicken soup.
Bai Lu placed the bowl lightly on the rosewood table and said, "Queen Mother, please try it."
The Queen Mother knew it tasted good the moment she smelled it. She wasn't hungry at first, but seeing Bai Lu had been busy for so long, she pulled her to sit down and said, "Come, let's eat together."
"Okay, I cooked a big pot!" Bai Lu replied.
They took a break and had some noodles.
Shen Lanhua lay on the ground with her eyes closed, feeling extremely desperate.
If I had known this would happen, I wouldn’t have come to Dawu and suffered so much.
Oh, it’s so annoying!
Bai Lu is not dead yet, but I am hungry and watch others eat.
Woo woo woo, it hurts so much!
Bai Lu turned her head and glanced at her. Seeing that she was so greedy that her eyes were closed and her eyebrows were twisted, she said lightly, "If you want to eat, I will also bring you a bowl."
Shen Lanhua was stunned. She felt a little relieved, but her mood was still complicated.
After all, she's Bingyu's daughter. What a kind-hearted girl! Such a good person, yet she's still thinking about giving face to her "enemy" at a time like this?!
But before she could recover, she heard Bai Lu continue to say calmly, "You just bit off your tongue. It must have been excruciatingly painful when you were eating noodles, right?"
"That's good too. It will be more convenient when I ask questions later!"
Shen Lanhua: “???” You are the living king of hell!
Bai Lu continued to "slurp" with the Queen Mother and finished the noodles in the bowl.
Bai Lu wanted to continue asking Shen Lanhua, but the Queen Mother stopped her hand and said with a smile, "Just now when you left, I asked this old woman why she wanted to hurt you."
"Why?" Bai Lu asked hurriedly.
The Queen Mother smiled and said, "Because this old woman wants you to escape from Dawu!"
"?"
"Think about it, if you encountered an assassin in Dawu, you would definitely feel unsafe here... and would want to escape!"
"If you escape to the Western Regions, wouldn't that be the perfect opportunity for you to see your mother?"
"This old woman did it on purpose!"
"So that's it!" Bai Lu suddenly realized and felt that it made sense.
Besides, the Queen Mother would not lie to him, and Xu Xian and Master Xi were also there, so there would definitely be no problem.
Bai Lu said to the Queen Mother, "In that case, let's go to the Western Regions to see Mother and bring my three brothers with us."
"It just so happens that my two brothers have marriages to arrange."
"If we can invite Mom over when they get married, Mom and my brothers will probably be very happy, right?"
