Bailu took out a fruit and started eating it in a reckless manner.

Pei Huizhou, who was standing next to him, also picked up a melon and started eating it.

The two of them ate it with great relish.

Not long after, Pei Huizhou felt himself suddenly become limp all over, as if he had been drugged.

Pei Huizhou lost control of his body and fell beside the carriage.

His head tilted and he was about to fall to the ground, but Bai Lu stepped forward and supported Pei Huizhou.

Pei Huizhou opened his mouth and asked in a confused manner: "What's going on?"

“What… is going on???”

Bai Lu looked at him like this and smiled slightly, which seemed to have a hint of joking in it.

"I forgot to tell you that the fruits and vegetables in our Bai family are not so delicious."

"I left some drugs in there on purpose."

"????"

"!!!"

Pei Huizhou widened his eyes in shock, and his pupils contracted slightly.

Bai Lu asked slowly: "So, Master Pei, now you have to tell me honestly, why do you keep following me? What is your purpose?"

"..."

Pei Huizhou closed his mouth and just hummed. He tried hard not to say anything, but Bai Lu kept asking him and hypnotized him again.

"..."

Pei Huizhou's eyes were distracted: "I... I followed you for a reason."

"I'm going to take you back to the Bai family."

"Take it back to the Bai family?"

Bai Lu narrowed her eyes and fell into deep thought, "Is this a task given to you by the Queen, or by Bai Yansong?"

Pei Huizhou replied: "This is the task Bai Yansong gave me. He wants to take you home."

"Why is this? Do you want me to go home and pay tribute to Zhao Bingyu?"

"No."

Pei Huizhou replied, "It's so that you won't bother Haitang when you go home."

"Besides, Bai Yansong values ​​your business ability and wants you to go back and help the Bai family with their business. Now that Bai Chuyao has become the patriarch of the Bai family, Bai Yansong also wants to share his power and doesn't want Bai Chuyao to be in charge of everything. Otherwise, he will really be abandoned by the Bai family and lose his identity and status."

Pei Huizhou's eyes were almost completely distracted at this moment.

Bai Lu’s expression became increasingly ugly.

After that, Bai Lu asked in a cold voice: "Why do I feel that...the reasons you mentioned are not the main reasons. To be honest, Master Pei."

Having said that, Bai Lu directly pried open Pei Huizhou's mouth and fed him another pill.

Pei Huizhou's eyes became dull again, and this time he completely became a puppet.

Bai Lu tried it out first: "Master Pei, call me daddy."

"Daddy."

Pei Huizhou didn't hesitate at all.

Seeing that he called out so clearly and decisively, Bai Lu nodded, very satisfied. This time, she didn't have to worry about Pei Huizhou deliberately trying to sow discord.

Bai Lu looked at Pei Huizhou carefully and asked, "What is the real reason?"

Pei Huizhou spoke slowly: "...The real reason is that if you, Bai Lu, are brought back to Kyoto to recognize your ancestors, the emperor will also reinstate Bai Yansong. For your sake, the emperor will never let Zhao Bingyu's daughter have an incompetent father."

"!!!"

Hearing this, Bai Lu's heart trembled, and she couldn't tell what she felt in her heart. Even if she didn't have any thoughts about this father, she couldn't do this just for the sake of profit...

Totally disappointed.

Bai Lu took a deep breath, she touched Pei Huizhou all over, and finally put her hand into the deepest part of Pei Huizhou's waist.

Unbuttoned his belt and took out a letter.

That was written by Bai Yansong to Pei Huizhou. After reading it, it was just as Pei Huizhou said before.

"This Bai Yansong is such a bastard!"

Bai Lu glared at Pei Huizhou and said, "Master Pei, you are really wasting your abilities by working for him."

"..."

Pei Huizhou was already unconscious at this moment. He just stared at Bai Lu blankly and did not respond to anything Bai Lu said.

Bai Lu took a deep breath and said to Pei Huizhou, "Forget it, Master Pei, that's it. Don't follow us to Qingzhou anymore."

"When the effect of the drug wears off, I'll throw you out."

About half an hour later, Pei Huizhou was forced to wake up. He bit the tip of his tongue and almost broke all the meridians in his body.

After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he heard Bai Lu beside him say coldly: "I didn't expect that Master Pei is a genius. He can actually break the effect of this medicine by himself, and now only half an hour has passed."

"My poison... even if you are a martial arts expert, it will take at least an hour to work. Lord Pei's willpower is much stronger than that of ordinary people."

Hearing this, Pei Huizhou gritted his teeth and turned to look at Bai Lu. He could remember all the questions that Bai Lu had asked him after she drugged him and hypnotized him.

Pei Huizhou still remembered that Bai Lu insisted that he call her daddy. Pei Huizhou couldn't help but sarcastically said to Bai Lu: "I didn't expect that you, Lady Bai, are so good at playing tricks."

"So Master Pei, listen to me and tell me those things when I ask you."

Bai Lu satirizes Pei Huizhou.

Pei Huizhou was very unhappy when he heard this. He snorted coldly and said to Bai Lu: "Forget it, I won't stay with you anymore."

"...But I was poisoned and my martial arts skills have weakened a bit. I will leave after we reach Qingzhou."

Bai Lu nodded, which was expected. Anyway, Pei Huizhou's purpose of coming here has been exposed, and he must be embarrassed to stay here any longer.

Bai Lu smiled at Pei Huizhou and said, "If Master Pei needs anything, you can tell me. I can bring some silver and food for you when I get back. This way, you can rest better on the road."

"Haha, thank you so much."

Hearing this, Pei Huizhou's face turned green.

Bai Lu smiled and patted Pei Huizhou on the shoulder: "Master Pei, you're welcome."

Not long after, the Queen Mother came in with a few children, looking very gossipy.

As soon as I entered the carriage, I saw Pei Huizhou with a red face, disheveled clothes, and full of anger.

Bai Lu was standing next to them, looking very happy.

The Queen Mother couldn't help gossiping immediately. She rushed to Bai Lu's side and asked, "What did you do to Lord Pei just now?"

"You can guess what I just did to Master Pei."

Queen Mother: "?"

Bai Lu smiled, "That is, I knocked him unconscious, then touched him, looked at his body, and made him say some words that children can't listen to..."
