In ancient times, she gave birth to seven daughters and was divorced by her husband's family.

Bai Lu nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, don't worry, big brother, I will definitely take good care of my three nephews. These three nephews are like my own sons."

"Okay." Bai Chuyao nodded. He had nothing to worry about. Bai Lu was always very good at taking care of children. But when a child travels far away, parents worry... It was the first time for him and Lin to send their son away from home, so they were a little worried for a while.

Bai Qingze and Bai Liezhao looked at each other. They both wanted to go to Liangzhou with Bai Lu.

First, listen to Bai Chuyao's words, go out to gain some experience, and don't get involved in the affairs of the Bai family.

With a personality like Bai Liezhao, he would only suffer more if he got involved with the inner chambers. It would be better for him to fight on the battlefield.

The Turks will start a war soon, so it would be better to let Bai Liezhao go out first.

As for Bai Qingze, he will go out with Murong Jinshu for a while so that they can get married outside. This is the intention of the Emperor and the Queen Mother.

Bai Qingze thought about it and felt a little headache.

Bai Lu raised seven daughters alone, as well as Leng Bingnian, Su Jinyu, Ximen Liuyun, the little prince, Bai Tingjing, Bai Zhuojun, and Bai Qingyue, a total of 7 children.

She definitely can't take care of so many children by herself.

As Bai Lu's brother and the children's uncle and third uncle, I must help take care of them.

Bai Qingze took a deep breath, and when he thought of the pain of raising a child, he felt dizzy.

Having too many children can sometimes be a problem.

Just as they were thinking about it, they heard a loud noise coming from outside.

The sound was very noisy and harsh.

The Queen Mother was very angry. She frowned and said angrily, "Which palace servant doesn't know the rules and started a quarrel outside? Don't you know that I am talking about something here?"

Soon a young eunuch came in from outside. He knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the empress dowager in fear and trepidation, and said, "Empress Dowager, it's not that the palace servants don't know the rules, but... it's Bai Yansong who is here!"

"What? Bai Yansong is here?" The Queen Mother twitched her lips, very angry, "How dare he come to my palace? Doesn't he know that he is the one I dislike the most?"

"Maybe now that he knows Bai Lu is going back to Liangzhou, so... he comes over." Bai Qingze said slowly to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother curled her lips and her face gradually became gloomy.

She muttered, "How dare Bai Yansong come and harass Bai Lu? What does it have to do with him whether Bai Lu returns to Liangzhou or not?"

"Hurry up, get the palace servants outside to drive him away!"

"Yes!" The palace maids and eunuchs below crawled out.

They also knew that the Queen Mother didn't like Bai Yansong, so they had to drive Bai Yansong away quickly.

It's just that they used some tricks before, Bai Yansong won't leave...

It is not easy for them to force him to leave. After all, Bai Yansong is the emperor's uncle.

Now that the Empress Dowager has spoken, they have to forcibly drive Bai Yansong away. Even if Bai Yansong is unhappy and the Empress is unhappy, they will naturally blame the Empress Dowager.

The Queen Mother has spoken, and it’s none of their business.

Soon there was no movement outside, and Bai Yansong seemed to have been driven away.

Bai Lu, the Queen Mother and the others were all happy.

Afterwards, they got together to discuss their next trip to Liangzhou.

Bai Lu planned to send the children back to Liangzhou first, and then quickly go to Qingzhou to meet Sun Zhizhou, the governor of Qingzhou, and talk to him about business.

Stay there for about two or three months and start the business.

After the war is over, if Bai Lu sees that the Turks are fighting with Qingzhou, he can return to Liangzhou.

Or...when there is a war in Qingzhou, Bai Lu can stay in Qingzhou temporarily and supply Qingzhou with food and other things.

The food lifeline of Liangzhou is in their own hands. They have plenty of food and fodder. If needed, they can also send someone to pass the message to Bai Lu.

This was also what the emperor meant. He specifically told Bai Lu to ask for help if food and grass were in short supply.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about food and grass in Qingzhou for the time being.

Afterwards, the emperor will give all the money for food and fodder to Bai Lu.

Bai Lu agreed.

After that, the Queen Mother said with some emotion: "You are leaving soon, so let's have a delicious meal together."

"Send someone to call the Queen over, and the Crown Prince... Call them all over, and we'll gather around the table and eat hot pot."

"Okay!" Everyone nodded in agreement.

The Queen Mother made quite a big fuss about eating hotpot.

There were many of them, including 14 children. The Queen Mother thought about it and asked someone to bring several tables and put them together.

The square table is super big. If you put 4 of them together, you can form a bigger square table that can seat more than 30 people in a circle.

The palace maids and eunuchs below respectfully presented the food to Bai Lu and the others, including duck intestines, pork tripe, pork rolls, mutton rolls, and even a plate of beef rolls, beef tripe, beef heart, beef liver... and even beef.

Bai Lu couldn't help but look at the Queen Mother in surprise and doubt.

The Queen Mother whispered to Bai Lu, "Although there are laws in our dynasty that forbid the killing and eating of cattle, some cattle die of old age, and it would be a waste if we don't eat their meat. Then the common people will send the beef to us, the princes and nobles, to eat."

"You can buy beef, but it's rare, so you have to rely on luck to get it, and it's also more expensive."

"I see." Bai Lu nodded. They rarely ate beef.

Several children also like to eat beef, so I can give more to them later.

They were talking when they suddenly heard a familiar noise coming from outside.

"Why is there such a noisy sound again?" The Queen Mother was very angry. She turned around and saw the Queen coming in, followed by a middle-aged man.

The man kept spitting, and the queen looked as if she had a splitting headache.

The man behind him is Bai Yansong.

I guess the queen must be in a difficult situation too. After all, he is her brother, and she can't just drive him out.

The queen felt that it was very embarrassing that everyone was looking at her at this moment, but what could she do?

Her face was grim, and she walked forward and saluted the Queen Mother: "...Mother, it's all my fault."

I didn't expect that the emperor was also there.

As soon as the queen finished her ceremony, she saw the emperor looking at her with a sharp gaze, and then she glanced at Bai Yansong behind her with disgust...

The queen felt as if her soul was almost torn apart!
