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

Bai Lu's heart was filled with alarm. Without thinking, she immediately called the system and Bai Qi!

At this moment, Zhu Zhizhou's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

He tightly gripped the knife in his hand and slowly turned his head to look at Bai Lu. His eyes were filled with ferocity and hatred, and his emotions were as complicated as an overturned bottle of five flavors.

He gripped the knife tightly in both hands, his knuckles turning white, but the blade...didn't fall towards Bai Lu for a long time.

Seeing him like this, the Turkic Khan raised his eyebrows slightly.

He asked coldly, "Why haven't you done it yet? Could it be...that you can't bear to do it?!"

"You have to think carefully about your daughter's current situation. She is living a life worse than death!"

"However, even if life is worse than death, it's still better than death!" The Turkic Khan laughed, "Zhu Zhizhou, if you don't kill Bai Lu, then I will kill your daughter!!"

"..."

The governor of Zhaozhou slowly closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face uncontrollably. He choked and cried out, "Khan!"

His voice trembled like a leaf falling in the autumn wind. "If I kill her, I won't be able to keep my title as prefect!"

Although he loves his daughter, he still has a wife at home, several sons, and parents who need to be supported... There are even people all over the world waiting for me to govern!

After all, he is a local official, and he cannot be so abrupt in doing things.

Zhu Zhizhou said, "It's fine if you lose your title, but it would be bad if you ruin the Turkic plan. You don't have anyone you can trust in Zhaozhou!"

"My location makes everything very convenient!"

Bai Lu looked at Zhu Zhizhou quietly, and she had a rough idea of ​​what kind of person he was.

He is not a completely bad person, and he is more or less forced into doing so.

At this moment, she couldn't tell whether she felt sad or something else.

If your daughter were captured by the Turkic Khan and used to threaten you, what decision would you make?

Should I choose the people of the world or my own daughter?

No matter what choice you make, it is a helpless act.

This cannot be simply judged as who is right or wrong.

Because in the current environment, Zhu Zhizhou has no right to choose at all.

All I can say is that after weighing the pros and cons, he made what he thought was the best choice.

They were still slowly stalling for time, while Bai Lu was watching them quietly.

After hearing what Zhu Zhizhou said, the Turkic Khan showed a half-smile on his face, and it was unclear whether he believed what he said or not.

After a long while, the Turkic Khan slowly spoke, "If you kill Bai Lu just for your daughter, I would actually think there's something wrong with you!"

He said to Zhu Zhizhou, "I've already said that Bai Lu is good-looking. Let Bai Lu stay as my concubine, so that I and the generals under my command can play with her..."

"I finally tricked her into coming here, how could I bear to kill her like this?"

"Go down, I need to talk to her alone."

Zhu Zhizhou turned his head to look at Bai Lu, his eyes as cold as the frost and snow in winter, then turned and left.

There were only two of them left in the room.

The Turkic Khan suddenly paced around the room. He looked at the tied Bai Lu with a smile on his face.

"White Lady, were you scared just now?"

"I'm so sorry, I was thinking of giving you a big surprise!"

"Don't worry, if that old immortal thing really kills you, I will definitely rescue you immediately!"

"Oh, why aren't you talking? Why aren't you looking at me? Are you angry?"

"I'm here... to apologize to you!"

The Turkic Khan spoke Chinese very well.

Bai Lu stared coldly at the Turkic Khan, her eyes filled with vigilance, and asked, "The Turkic Khan and Dawu are fighting on the front line...it has come to this point, and you don't go to the front line, but instead run to Zhaozhou. Why is that?!"

The Turkic Khan said with a smile: "On the front line, your husband Pei Huizhou is controlling the situation for me, so I can naturally mobilize the troops from behind!"

"He breaks it from the outside, I break it from the inside."

Hearing this, Bai Lu frowned.

The word "husband" was like a harsh noise, making her feel sick. "Pei Huizhou has nothing to do with me!"

"Of course I know." The Turkic Khan shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly, "If you two were related, I wouldn't have arrested you on purpose! For Pei Huizhou's sake, I'll let you go!"

"You two are enemies!" The Turkic Khan stared at Bai Lu closely, a smile still on his face. "...None of you in Dawu thought I would come to Zhaozhou!"

After all, Zhaozhou has always been the city least affected by the war. It is very close to Kyoto, and the Turks cannot get in... Maybe even Liangzhou is less affected than Zhaozhou!

This is equivalent to the heart of Dawu.

No one expected that there would be any problems in Zhaozhou...the military strength here is also the smallest.

Sure enough, the most dangerous place is the safest place.

The safest place is the most dangerous place.

Bai Lu stared at the Turkic Khan and suddenly laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" asked the Turkic Khan with some confusion.

"I laugh. You don't know what's happening to your Turkic base camp right now." Bai Lu stared at the Turkic Khan and said calmly, "I guess you also know that my poison is very powerful."

Hearing this, the Turkic Khan's face changed instantly, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and suddenly laughed.

“I know what you’re going to say, but it doesn’t matter.”

"As long as White Lady is here, you will definitely be able to cure the poison!"

"If you don't cure this poison, I will send people to capture your daughters and let the soldiers rape them!" The Turkic Khan threatened Bai Lu with a smile. Seeing Bai Lu's face change instantly, he said happily.

"Are they still young now?"

"At such a young age, you should not want them to be abused by men!"

"You bastard!!" The Turkic Khan angrily grabbed Bai Lu's chin and said to her fiercely, "For the sake of the Turkic cause, anything is fine! You can call me whatever you want."

"...It would be nice if both you and your daughter could serve me." He licked his lips perversely and then laughed.

There was a hint of madness in the Turkic Khan's eyes. He was not afraid of Bai Lu's plan at all.

It’s not like they don’t have doctors over there in Turkic area.

He just couldn't believe it. Was Bai Lu really that powerful? Could the medicine in her hand completely destroy the Turks?!

This is absolutely impossible.

Although he was a little worried, he didn't take it to heart. As long as Bai Lu was caught by him, he felt that...anything would be fine.

Bai Lu sneered and said nothing else. This Turkic Khan was too arrogant.

However, she was not particularly worried in her heart, because it would be useless even if he caught her.

The Turks are destined to perish.

At this time, Bai Qi sent her a message: "I'm here, do you want to rush in now?"

"Don't rush in yet." Bai Lu sent a message to Bai Qi in her heart, and then she acted in front of the Turkic Khan, looking hoarse and desperate.

When the Turkic Khan saw her like this, he was so happy that he almost peed himself!

He didn't know what his quirk was, but he just liked seeing beautiful women so desperate in front of him.

He smiled at Bai Lu and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you today. I will keep you to threaten the emperor."

Having said that, he turned and left.

Looking at his back, Bai Lu's heart was in turmoil.

Someone outside was watching Bai Lu the entire time. The system reminded Bai Lu, "Don't worry, it's not something powerful. We can handle it directly."

"If you want to run, you can run now."

"Let's see how the doctors are doing first!" If I were alone, I would run away no matter what.

But...there are so many doctors in the city who were brought here by Bai Lu.

Can I just leave them behind and run away by myself?

That's too tasteless.

The system asked Bai Lu, "Then let's find a way to rescue those doctors."

"Yes." Bai Lu closed her eyes. On the surface, she looked desperate and had no idea what to do. But in fact, she was thinking about countermeasures bit by bit.

At this moment, Bai Qi suddenly sent a message to Bai Lu: "I found someone in the next room."

"Who is it? Are they holding him captive?" Bai Lu asked hurriedly.

Then Bai Qi said, "That person... looks a bit like Wu Li! Blonde hair, very white skin."

“Somewhat similar to Uri?”

"Could it be... Uri's father?!"

Bai Lu immediately told Bai Qi in her heart, "How about this, you go and communicate with that person! Speak the language of the Uri family's hometown. If he understands and responds to you, then we'll find a way to rescue him."

Bai Qi immediately agreed.

Not long after, he came back and told Bai Lu.

"He said he was the emperor of the Great Stone Kingdom. He also emphasized that he used the word 'shi', which means stone, and not 'shi', which means food, in case you misheard."

"..."

After hearing this, Bai Lu twitched her lips and roughly understood. If the "Shi" in stone, then it must be Wu Li's father. They came from the Dashi Kingdom and had a good relationship with Dawu.

If it is the "食" in "food", then it refers to people from another country.

Previously, Shen Congyun was sent on a diplomatic mission to the Western Regions under his own orders. The king of the country there was particularly fond of showing off and even bought bitter Pu'er tea to drink.

In order to facilitate trade between the two countries, Shen Congyun was also granted the title of Viscount...which was the title of the Kingdom of the Arabs.

She probably has an impression.

It turned out to be Uri's father.

Bai Lu asked, "But why is Wu Li's father here? Was he captured by that Turkic Khan?!"

Bai Qi said, "He said he knew a war was coming and came to deliver supplies to Da Wu!"

"He actually went to Pingzhou first because it had the closest border with the Turks. He thought the fighting there would be the most severe, but he didn't expect... Pingzhou would fall so quickly."

"So, for safety, he fled to Zhaozhou next door. Unexpectedly, Zhaozhou was even less safe than Pingzhou. The Turkic Khan was actually there!"

Bai Lu: “…”

"This is really unlucky."

"But he is a good man." He was so kind that he sent something to their Dawu.

Bai Qi said, "Moreover, he also specifically mentioned the little Prince Wuli."

Bai Lu raised an eyebrow, then heard Bai Qi say, "He specifically said that he sent the little prince Wuli here on purpose and left his son here as a hostage, otherwise His Majesty might become suspicious."

"He originally brought a letter to Your Majesty before leaving, and only came after receiving Your Majesty's approval."

"That letter...said to have been delivered to an official in Dawu named Pei Huizhou."

"He didn't know that the letter hadn't reached our Emperor Dawu! He just thought that His Majesty had agreed."

"So that's how it is. He actually gave the letter to Pei Huizhou." Bai Lu twitched her lips, speechless. "If he gave it to Pei Huizhou, how could he possibly give this letter to the emperor?!"

They were still investigating why this kid Uri came to Dawu. So that's how it is.

Bai Lu rubbed her head.

Now, the reason why the little Prince Uri appeared in Dawu was completely clarified.

Bai Lu then said to Bai Qi, "Go check again to see if there's any plague in Zhaozhou."

Not long after, Bai Qi delivered the message to Bai Lu directly on the street.

"There is a plague in Zhaozhou!"

"Zhaozhou is divided into the inner city and the outer city. What we saw before was the outer city. Everything in the outer city is fine... This is also for the other prefectures and the emperor to see."

"Half of the inner city is under lockdown, and there are many corpses! The Zhaozhou prefect only sent a few doctors and some herbal remedies, which are taken three times a day... It's completely useless."

"Three meals a day?"

Bai Lu was a little surprised. "Drinking so many herbs is really a waste!"

"What's the point? What's the point of drinking it? It's just a waste of money!"

Bai Lu felt a little complicated for a moment, so she said to Bai Qi, "Well, go back and ask those doctors what they think! If they want to leave, I'll take them away immediately."

Although the people here are really pitiful, what can they do now?

We must leave here first before we can find a way to catch the Zhaozhou prefect and the Turkic Khan.

Not long after, Bai Qi sent a message to Bai Lu: "The doctors said they don't want to leave."

"Why?"

"They said the people here needed them, and if they left, what would happen to you, White Lady? They refused to leave, saying...if we're leaving, we can leave together!"

Bai Lu sighed, thinking about the other doctors who would be brought by the female army later, and that there was not much time left for them.

Gradually she had a brilliant idea!

He can take the doctors away and cure the plague in Zhaozhou.
