Lu Wanqing ran out crying. She kept crying and running aimlessly without even looking at the road.

Little did she know that they had arrived at the slums in the north city. The crowd here was a mixed crowd, and everyone was in tattered clothes, but her clothes were bright and eye-catching.

Three or five thugs blocked Lu Wanqing's way. She was sobbing, her nostrils flaring, and her nose and eyes were red.

"Little beauty, where are you going? Come and play with us brothers." said a gangster with a dogtail grass in his mouth.

Another thug walked forward and said, "Come on, little beauty, follow me, I will take you home."

Lu Wanqing looked at the jackals in front of her with tearful eyes and felt a chill in her heart. She then looked up at the surrounding buildings. They looked so unfamiliar.

She didn't know how long she had been crying or how long she had been walking.

But her eyes were red and swollen from crying.

Lu Wanqing moved back quietly, little by little.

Another thug moved briskly behind her.

This is how to do.

Now I was surrounded by these people.

The gangster who had dogtail grass in his mouth spat out the grass in his mouth with a "Puh" sound, and a lot of saliva splashed out.

"What's wrong, my little beauty? Are you unhappy?" The gangster grabbed Lu Wanqing's wrist and was about to drag her into a dark alley.

Lu Wanqing arched her back tightly to prevent him from dragging her, but her strength was no match for that thug, and she was dragged towards the alley little by little.

"Da da da." There was the sound of horse hooves, followed by a loud shout, "What are you doing?"

A tall brown horse with shiny fur was riding a dashing woman in a bright red riding suit, and behind her were several male guards in black.

This woman was none other than Liu Yuefu.

It was late today, so she entered the city from the North City and was preparing to return to the palace.

"Are you planning to do something wrong in the street? Or do you want to rape a woman?" Liu Yuefu asked loudly.

These thugs looked at the whip raised in Liu Yuefu's hand and the black-clad guards behind her, and knew that they had met a tough opponent, so they dispersed.

Liu Yuefu picked up Lu Wanqing, and Lu Wanqing sat on the horse's back close to her back.

"Hold my waist and sit tight!" Liu Yuefu said.

She tightened the reins, squeezed the horse's belly, and spurred the horse into a gallop.

"Where are you going back to? The Li family?" Liu Yuefu asked.

"I'm going back to the Lu family." Lu Wanqing said firmly.

The two of them were silent all the way until they were almost at Lu's house, when Lu Wanqing suddenly asked, "Madam Liu, why did you...why did you want to divorce Li Jianzhang in the first place?"

Liu Yuefu slowed down her horse and said, "He betrayed me and cheated on my cousin, and even had a son out of wedlock. Not only that, he also abused me, and when I asked for a divorce, he even set fire to me and tried to kill me."

Lu Wanqing's eyes widened. How could this be true?! How could she be completely different from what Li Jianzhang said?

She remembered that Li Jianzhang said that Liu Yuefu had already hooked up with King Jing, so she wanted to discard Li Jianzhang, whose status and wealth were not as good as King Jing's. For this reason, Lady Liu even let her cousin seduce him.

Lu Wanqing was silent for a long time before she slowly said, "He said that you had cheated on King Jing a long time ago, and then asked your sister to seduce him so that they could divorce each other in a logical way."

When Liu Yuefu heard this, she laughed out of anger.

It's really a case of confusing right and wrong and biting back.

Li Jianzhang, you are really amazing!

"Do you think it's possible? I let my cousin seduce him? Before my divorce, His Royal Highness Prince Jing and I were always polite to each other and never crossed the line."

"These are just the words he used to deceive you." Liu Yuefu said.

Seeing that the Lu family had arrived, Liu Yuefu tightened the reins and the horse stopped.

"We're here." Liu Yuefu said.

"Thank you so much today!" After getting off the horse, Lu Wanqing bowed to Liu Yuefu.

Liu Yuefu waved her hand and rode back to Prince Jing's mansion.

Lu Wanqing stood at the gate of the Lu family, feeling a little hesitant. After all, she had just had an argument with her father and felt a little embarrassed.

But she was discovered by her mother's maid, who hurried to the room of the mistress of the Lu family.

"Madam, madam, the young lady is back." said the maid.

Mrs. Lu looked out in surprise, but did not see Lu Wanqing. "Where is the young lady? She didn't come with you."

"I don't know what's wrong with the young lady. She's standing at the door and refusing to come in." The maid said with some confusion.

Mrs. Lu sighed and understood that she was still competing with her father.

Mrs. Lu stood up and walked towards the front door. When she arrived at the door, she saw Lu Wanqing standing at the door of the Lu family, looking inside, but she didn't go in.

Madam Lu pulled her inside. Lu Wanqing was a little embarrassed and said, "Mother, I just had a fight with my father. He told me not to come home unless I get a divorce."

"What he said was just angry words, do you believe it?" Mrs. Lu said.

"Are you still taking it too seriously?" Mrs. Lu was somewhat speechless.

"Mother, I accidentally got lost today and ended up in North City."

"What?! You are alone? Are you okay?" Mrs. Lu asked with concern.

Lu Wanqing nodded, then shook her head, "Yeah, I'm alone, but I'm fine."

"Amitabha, Amitabha, Wanqing, you should know that the people there are all kinds of people. If you, a noble lady, go there, you will be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth, do you know that?" Mrs. Lu said.

"You are lucky this time, nothing happened. Don't go alone next time. Besides, there is nothing worth your trip." Mrs. Lu added.

"Mother, it was Princess Jing who saved me this time. She was... my husband's previous wife." Lu Wanqing said.

"She said that she divorced Li Sizheng because he not only had an affair with her cousin and gave birth to a illegitimate son, but he also abused her and tried to burn her to death after she filed for divorce." Lu Wanqing continued.

"This..." Mrs. Lu was speechless when she heard such inside information for the first time.

Only then did she notice that not only were her daughter's eyes red and swollen, but her left cheek was also a little red and swollen, as if there was a slap mark?

"Wanqing, why is your face red and swollen?" asked Mrs. Lu.

Lu Wanqing didn't want her mother to worry, so she covered her left cheek and said, "It's nothing, I did it accidentally."

Lu Wanqing tried to brush the matter off.

"Did he slap you in the face?" Mrs. Lu immediately thought of this possibility and asked.

Lu Wanqing felt a lump in her throat and tears suddenly fell. Her mother still understood and cared about her.

Seeing Lu Wanqing's reaction, Mrs. Lu still had something to understand, "He actually dared to hit you?!"

"Do you really think that there is no one left in our Lu family?" Mrs. Lu said angrily.

"Mother, I want a divorce." Seeing her mother like this, Lu Wanqing suddenly came to her senses. If Li Jianzhang really cared about her, why would he slap her so loudly?

Since he hit me, then the domestic violence against Madam Liu must be true. In this case, what Madam Liu said might be the real truth.

On the other side, Prime Minister Lu was in the study room. Hearing this, he laughed.

He actually owed Madam Liu a favor.
