Chapter 588 Who is behind the scenes?
The people in the inner court traced the case back to Shijun Qi.
The empress didn't care whether the other party was innocent or not. She just threw him to the Ministry of Punishment because she felt disgusted.
Finally, Qi Shijun couldn't bear it anymore and confessed his affair with the right prime minister, even saying that Yan Shijun's death was caused by him and Murong Jing.
It is said that he was with Murong Jing simply because he wanted to find someone to rely on.
When Xi Guijun was in favor, he had to rely on Feng Jun to avoid becoming a victim.
It was also because of his good behavior that Feng Jun kept him.
Later, Murong Jing often went in and out of the palace to visit Feng Jun, and the two became familiar with each other.
In addition, the empress did not come often, so the lonely Qi Shijun hooked up with Murong Jing behind Fengjun and the empress's backs.
Murong Jing was not the kind of beauty who wanted to throw herself into his arms and didn't want to refuse or had other thoughts, so she didn't push Qi Shijun away, and the two of them continued to interact secretly.
I thought they were very careful and wouldn't be discovered, but I didn't expect Yan Shijun to bump into them.
Murong Jing didn't want to kill Yan Chen in the first place, but he had the bad luck to know the secret.
If he doesn't die, she will be finished if this matter is leaked.
That's why Yan Shijun committed suicide.
After learning the truth, the empress was so angry that she almost vomited blood. Although she didn't vomit blood, she was so angry that she fainted on the spot.

Beichen Palace, Study
There were two people sitting at the two ends of the chessboard, Yan Qingping and Di Ran.
"Who do you think is the person behind this? What does she want to do?"
"Could it be Murong Jing's enemy?"
Yan Qingping was confused, wondering who this person was and how he could be so powerful.
She didn't even know when such a force appeared in the capital.
Could it have happened during the time she was away?
Di Ran raised his eyebrows, his eyes were cold and calm, he picked up the chess pieces and placed them, his tone was calm and nonchalant.
"Why think so much? It won't be bad for you or me."
Yan Qingping frowned: "How do you know that the other party is not coming for you and me?"
Di Ran raised his eyes to look at her and pursed his lips: "My intuition tells me that the other party's behavior doesn't seem to be an enemy of us."
"On the contrary, it helped us." She had noticed the other things a long time ago. When she was investigating Murong Jing, she felt that things were going too smoothly, as if someone was helping her secretly, but she didn't know who that person was.
I just know that the other party has no ill intentions. If he wanted to harm her, he would have done it long ago with his ability.
Yan Qingping didn't care about Di Ran's words and muttered, "That's not her credit. She just got there a step ahead of us."
Di Ran narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "No matter what, the other party has helped us."
"Now that Murong Jing has fallen, you will have a lot of work to do next."
"I?"
Yan Qingping was slightly stunned: "What's wrong with me?"
Di Ran glanced at him, her pink lips curled slightly: "Don't forget that there is also Master Bo in the court. The empress can't just watch one side become more powerful. The best way is to support another person to compete with Master Bo, so that both sides can suppress each other."
"So you think I'm the best fit?"
Yan Qingping raised his eyebrows, his eyes curved.
Di Ran: “Not bad.”
Yan Qingping smiled and waved the fan in his hand, leaning back in the chair with a bright smile.
"Murong Jing has fallen, and the old fox Bo Luan is very proud now."
Emperor Ran did not deny it.
"you lose."
Yan Qingping was slightly stunned and looked sideways.
Hey!
"You cheated again!"
"Victory or defeat is standard issue."
"I still don't believe it! Come again!"
Mo Yan's figure was getting closer and closer in the corridor. She walked over and whispered something in Di Ran's ear.
"What did you say?!"
Di Ran's face changed drastically. He stood up from the armchair in shock and walked out of the mansion at a brisk pace, not caring about Yan Qingping behind him.
Yan Qingping was confused: "What's wrong? Are you not going to play chess anymore?"
Seeing his friend's hurried look, Yan Qingping couldn't help but take out a mask and put it on, then went to watch the fun.
