The morning sunlight gently bathed the guards of Buckingham Palace, casting a warm glow on their uniforms and making them appear somewhat drowsy. At this moment, the female prime minister, known by the nickname “Iron Lady,” and her Chancellor of the Exchequer were sitting in a small café, waiting anxiously for an audience with the Queen. Both of them looked pale and exhausted, clearly having lost sleep for several nights. Their mental turmoil and prolonged waiting made them restless, and they kept drinking coffee as if it were plain water.
The Queen’s personal lady-in-waiting entered from the palace gates and offered the two an apologetic smile. “I’m very sorry, but Her Majesty has recently come down with a serious cold and has not yet fully recovered. Therefore, she is temporarily unable to meet with you today. She hopes you will visit again in the future.”
Upon hearing this, the Chancellor immediately stood up and shouted, “Didn’t you tell Her Majesty that we have urgent matters to discuss? We must see the Queen immediately!”
Remaining calm, the lady-in-waiting replied, “I have already conveyed your urgent request to Her Majesty. However, she feels that she is currently in no condition to handle state affairs. She hopes that you both will honor the trust the Queen and the people have placed in you and manage the nation’s affairs properly.”
The Prime Minister and the Chancellor exchanged a glance, then stood up and said to the lady-in-waiting, “Please convey our regards to Her Majesty and wish her a speedy recovery.” With that, they turned and left the café.
As they stood at the main entrance of Buckingham Palace, both turned back for one last look at the majestic building. The Prime Minister sighed and said, “This may be the last time we enter Buckingham Palace in our official capacity. Let’s go.” They walked unsteadily toward their car and drove away.
Before Mu Lin even returned to Boston, a shocking piece of news had already spread across the globe through the media: the current Y country government led by the Labour Party had collectively resigned! Her Majesty had accepted their resignation and ordered Parliament to quickly form an interim government to deal with the chaos left behind by the resignation of the previous administration.
In fact, the Queen and her advisors had gone to Buckingham Palace to make one final attempt to stabilize the situation. They had hoped to use the Queen’s immense prestige to persuade both the Senate and the House of Representatives, thus stabilizing the domestic situation and buying time to deal with the growing crisis.
However, the Queen had also realized that due to concerns over Y country’s investment environment, major global corporations had begun withdrawing from Y country. The economy had sharply declined, unemployment had hit its lowest level since World War II, and widespread panic had gripped the public. Mass protests and demonstrations erupted across the country, demanding the resignation of the current government. Therefore, the Queen wisely decided to refuse the request for an audience.
At the same time, members of both the Senate and the House of Representatives were preparing to initiate impeachment proceedings against the current government, aiming to restructure it and restore the former glory of Y country as an old imperial power in an effort to reverse the worsening domestic situation. Amid growing public discontent, the female Prime Minister and her cabinet were forced to leave Downing Street in disgrace, ending her term prematurely.
Since the Conservative Party still held the majority of seats in both houses of Parliament, and Major, the Foreign Secretary at the time, was a leading figure among the Conservatives who opposed the former Prime Minister, he naturally became the new Prime Minister. One of the first things this former Foreign Secretary did upon taking office was to carry a document of reappointment and personally visit Buckingham Palace.
No one knew exactly what Major and the Queen discussed behind closed doors. The next day, the newly appointed Prime Minister suddenly left the country to pay a state visit to the United States, abandoning the domestic chaos in Y country. This move caused an uproar among the media and the public. Many questioned whether this new Prime Minister had the capability to turn the situation around. Soon after, the Queen addressed the public through the media, stating that Major’s trip had been done with her approval as a crucial step to address the serious domestic crisis. She urged the people to trust the new government as they would trust her, and to contribute to the economic recovery of Y country.
Meanwhile, as soon as Mu Lin and Xiao Laipi returned home, before they could even share the details of their journey with their family, they received a request for a visit from the new Prime Minister of Y country, Major, who was accompanied by officials from the President’s office.
It turned out that after taking office, Major’s first move was to use his authority to investigate the true reasons behind the sudden withdrawal of numerous companies from Y country. These companies included both foreign and domestic businesses. He believed that such a mass exodus must have been caused by some unknown factor. If he could uncover the reason for their departure, he could address the root cause, reassure these companies, and prevent further economic collapse. Otherwise, he would become the first truly transitional Prime Minister in Y country’s history.
Soon, the investigation reports were compiled and presented to him. After careful analysis, he discovered a common pattern among these companies: many of them had key family members suffering from serious illnesses—some had even passed away. These were diseases that current hospitals around the world were unable to fully cure. As a result, these family-owned enterprises and their affiliated companies began to withdraw from Y country.
There had been one place capable of treating these illnesses—the now-closed clinic of Mu Lin. However, since Mu Lin’s mysterious disappearance during his visit to Y country, followed by his sudden reappearance and memory loss, the clinic had been forced to shut down. This meant that diseases that could have been cured were now incurable. As a result, many wealthy families blamed Y country for their losses. Additionally, fearing that their families and businesses might suffer the same fate as Mu Lin, these companies decided to leave Y country. Some even hoped that by doing so, they could gain favor with Mu Lin once his clinic reopened, so they could establish a connection with him.
After reading the report, Major finally understood that the previous government had lost power simply because it had offended a single doctor. This was nothing short of a huge joke in both Y country’s history and world history.
Jokes aside, Major believed that the previous government must have received the same report but was powerless to act due to their own limitations. Now, the opportunity had fallen into his hands. If he failed to resolve the issue, he might become the shortest-serving Prime Minister in Y country’s history.
After fully understanding the situation and discussing the implications with the Queen, Major took the gift in hand and personally flew to the United States. Worried that his own influence would not be enough, he even visited the U.S. President and, under the President’s name, paid a visit to Mu Lin’s home.
