Chapter 389 Asking the Queen for Decision

Lu Qingyun stood up obediently, without really asking Xie Yao to exert much effort.

"To answer your Majesty, yes." She lowered her head slightly, "Please ask the Queen to make the decision."

Xie Yao's voice was filled with obvious anger. "Zhang Han is such a bastard, I will naturally stand up for you."

Hearing Xie Yao's words, Lu Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief.

She...made the right bet.

She immediately thanked him, "Thank you, Queen."

"No rush." ​​Xie Yao asked, "How do you want me to decide for you?"

There is a huge difference between punishment, reprimand, divorce, or warning. Xie Yao was so angry that Zhang Han hit a woman that she wanted to have him beaten up ten times right away.

But in the end it all depends on Lu Qingyun's intention.

After all, these two will still be the ones living together from now on.

Lu Qingyun raised her eyes, looked directly into Xie Yao's, and said, "I want to ask the Queen to grant me a divorce from Zhang Han."

This was beyond Xie Yao's expectations.

When she saw Lu Qingyun's appearance, she knew that this person was a person with ideas and prejudices, but she did not expect Lu Qingyun to have such courage.

It is rare for a woman to ask for a divorce.

But for Xie Yao, Lu Qingyun's appearance was just right.

She asked, "Have you thought about it?"

Lu Qingyun knelt down directly with a firm expression, "Qingyun has made up her mind. I will never regret it even if I die. I beg the Queen to grant my wish."

The tone was extremely serious.

But Xie Yao's questions were not over yet, "Why do you come to me for help?"

Zhang Han was only a sixth-rank deputy minister of the Ministry of Revenue, while Lu Qingyun's father was a third-rank minister of the Ministry of Personnel.

Zhang Han came from a poor family, but Lu Qingyun's father had many disciples. The two families were very different. How could Zhang Han dare not obey Lu Qingyun's father's words?

Xie Yao didn't ask so directly, but Lu Qingyun already understood what she meant.

He lowered his head and said, "To answer your Majesty's question, I found out he had a mistress a month after we got married. I asked my father for a divorce then, but he refused."

After a pause, Lu Qingyun continued, "Zhang Han attacked me this time because of that memorial."

"I suggested that he submit the memorial."

Obviously, Zhang Han realized that he had angered the emperor and empress because of the memorial, which led to the news of his childhood sweetheart and concubine spreading throughout the court. He was reprimanded in public and lost face.

Officials were supposed to keep themselves clean. Although there were many who secretly kept mistresses, they all kept it secret and never made it public.

Now that the incident had become public, Zhang Han naturally became a laughing stock in the entire capital.

Although he was talented and had been admitted based on his real abilities and knowledge, many of his contemporaries who passed the imperial examination were still serving in other places, while he had been transferred to the Ministry of Rites.

It goes without saying that it must have been the Minister of Personnel who promoted his son-in-law.

But only half a year after his marriage, news broke that Zhang Han was keeping a mistress, which made many people laugh at him for being a gigolo.

After hearing what Lu Qingyun said at this moment, Xie Yao's expression changed slightly, and there was a bit more scrutiny and inquiry in her eyes when she looked at Lu Qingyun.

If that's really the case...

Perhaps, Lu Qingyun can also be used by her.

Lu Qingyun continued, "I did it on purpose. I heard that His Majesty and the Empress have a very close relationship, and His Majesty created six palaces just for the Empress."

"I know such a memorial will surely anger His Majesty and His Majesty. If he is reprimanded, he will definitely vent his anger on me."

"It was me who deliberately provoked him, causing him to attack me in anger and injure me. I was deliberately trying to gain the Empress's mercy, hoping that she would make the decision for me."

Xie Yao had already guessed it in her heart.

She asked, "If you planned this on purpose, why are you telling me everything now?"
