After lying in bed for ten days or half a month, Prime Minister Liu finally had the strength to get up, walk around and bask in the sun.

The ten-plus days of bed rest seemed to have drained away all his energy and will.

He dragged his weak body and moved slowly, and every step seemed so difficult.

When he just walked into the yard and looked up to see the dazzling sunlight, Prime Minister Liu couldn't help but squint his eyes. The light in front of him made him dizzy for a moment.

He was like a person who had lived in darkness for a long time and was suddenly exposed to the light, seeming so uncomfortable.

Prime Minister Liu, who was staggering, finally walked to the stone chair and sat down. Not long after he sat down, Madam Liu came over. Madam Liu's hurried steps, with a bit of anger, broke the original tranquility in the yard.

Seeing how comfortable he looked, Mrs. Liu became furious.

She frowned and said sarcastically, "Prime Minister Liu can actually get up and walk! I thought you would die in bed! I didn't expect you to be so lucky." These cold words were like sharp arrows, shooting straight into Prime Minister Liu's heart.

Liu Xiang turned his head and looked at her. The look of disgust towards himself hurt him deeply.

His eyes were filled with disbelief and deep sorrow. The love and vows they once made seemed to still echo in his ears, but now there was only indifference and hatred left.

He couldn't help but ask: "How could it come to this?"

Once upon a time, they were an enviable couple. When they were newlyweds, they sat under the moonlight, made vows to each other, and had only tenderness and affection in their eyes for each other. At that time, Mrs. Liu was gentle, considerate, and Prime Minister Liu was also full of vigor and vitality, and full of longing for the future.

However, as time went on, the desire for power gradually eroded Prime Minister Liu's heart.

He pursued a higher position in the court by any means necessary. In order to achieve his goal, he was willing to sacrifice the interests of many people and even had an affair with the Queen Mother.

Madam Liu repeatedly advised him to cut his losses in time and not be blinded by power, but Prime Minister Liu turned a deaf ear to her.

Gradually, Mrs. Liu became disappointed in him. She felt that the man in front of her was no longer the man she loved.

Prime Minister Liu also became annoyed by Madam Liu's constant accusations and felt that she did not understand his ambitions.

Now, the relationship between the two has reached a freezing point.

Prime Minister Liu knew that it was all his fault. It was his greed and selfishness that made him lose the most precious thing.

But he still hoped to make amends and hoped that Madam Liu would give him another chance.

"Madam, I know I was wrong. I have been lying in bed these days thinking a lot. I shouldn't have lost myself for power and made you sad and disappointed." Prime Minister Liu's voice was trembling and full of regret.

Madam Liu looked at him coldly, the anger in her eyes still burning: "You know you're wrong now? It's too late! The damage you've caused cannot be repaired!"

Prime Minister Liu lowered his head, tears welling up in his eyes: "Madam, I am willing to spend the rest of my life to make up for my mistakes, I only ask you to give me another chance."

Madam Liu was silent for a long time and said, "Once a person makes a mistake, he will never have another chance."

Mrs. Liu had no intention of giving him a chance.

She said coldly: "Liu Fujin, let's get divorced."

"No matter what you say, I will never forgive you."

"You can bring the concubine you keep outside into the mansion."

"After all, she gave birth to a son for you."

"You shouldn't mistreat her."

Prime Minister Liu suddenly opened his eyes wide, stood up tremblingly, and his tone was full of disbelief.

"Ma'am, are you kidding me?"

"We have been married for decades, how can we divorce?"

"Besides, I've already admitted my mistake, what else do you want from me?"

"As a prime minister, do I have to kneel down and beg for your forgiveness?"

"Then where will I put my face?"

Madam Liu snorted coldly, her eyes full of determination: "Prime Minister Liu, is your face more important, or is our broken relationship more important? When you were out there looking for other women, did you ever think about my feelings? Did you ever think about this family?"

Prime Minister Liu's face turned pale, and his lips trembled: "Madam, I... I was confused for a moment."

"Just a moment of confusion?" Madam Liu sneered, "You were confused for quite a while. Do you think that admitting your mistake will make everything go back to the way it was before? You have broken my heart so many times that it can never heal."

Prime Minister Liu was swaying, as if he would fall down at any moment: "Madam, please don't be so heartless. I swear, I will reform myself and live a good life with you in the future."

Madam Liu turned her head away and stopped looking at him: "I no longer believe in your oath. There is no room for negotiation on the matter of divorce."

Prime Minister Liu stood there in shock, tears streaming down his cheeks: "Madam, you really won't give me a chance?"

Madam Liu took a deep breath and suppressed the grief in her heart: "I have given you opportunities many times, but you didn't cherish them. From now on, you go your way and I go mine."

After saying this, Madam Liu resolutely turned around and left, leaving Prime Minister Liu alone, staring at her back, full of regret but helpless.

The sun was still shining in the courtyard, but at this moment, Prime Minister Liu felt that the light was extremely dazzling, and the pain in his heart could not be dispelled.

Prime Minister Liu sat in the yard for a long time, his mind in a mess, like a tangled ball of silk that he couldn't sort out.

After sitting for a while, he finally stood up, turned around and went into the house to put on his official uniform.

He hurriedly got on the carriage. During the whole journey, his heart was restless and his mind was constantly thinking about things.

In the carriage, he thought to himself that as long as he asked the emperor to let him talk to Liu Ruyu and ask her to help persuade the lady, the lady would not divorce him.

As he was thinking, the carriage arrived at the palace gate. Prime Minister Liu got off the carriage and headed straight for the emperor's palace. When he saw Gu Qingluo, he immediately knelt down with a plop.

"Your Majesty, please help me!" Prime Minister Liu's voice was anxious and flustered, "My wife wants to divorce me! What should I do?"

Gu Qingluo sat on the high seat and frowned: "Prime Minister Liu, why is this?"

Prime Minister Liu had a bitter look on his face and quickly replied, "Your Majesty, I don't know how I offended the Madam. I am thinking, please let me meet the Queen. Once the Queen takes action, the Madam will definitely change her mind!"

Gu Qingluo: "She is so disappointed in you that no one can plead for you and make her change her mind."

Prime Minister Liu hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, I have served the court for many years. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. Now that my family is in such a mess, I am really at a loss. I hope Your Majesty will show mercy!"

"Forget it, just go ahead." Gu Qingluo waved his hands helplessly.

"I will allow you to see the Queen."

"Whether the Queen agrees to help you is her business. I have no say in this."

You damn scumbag, her dear queen will never agree to help you!

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Liu kowtowed and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!"

After coming out of the palace, Prime Minister Liu went straight to the Queen's bedroom.
