Chapter 620 Enemies, not friends
Because she was afraid that her young husband would get tired, Di Ran didn't ask anyone to hurry on their journey. Instead, he walked slowly as if they were on a picnic.
Of course, the journey was not peaceful.
Bandits blocking the road, killers in tea stalls, terrors in black shops... the journey is very thrilling.
Some were targeted at Di Ran and Ji Yunxie, some were targeted at those criminals, and the reason for targeting those criminals was nothing more than that list.
Ji Huashang handed the list to Di Ran before leaving. The trip to Jiangzhou made her see King Beichen's decisive ability. She felt relieved when such a person handed the list to her.
As for whether it would cause trouble to King Beichen, Ji Huashang felt that with Di Ran's ability, she believed she could handle it.
Di Ran, who intends to cultivate a relationship with her husband: ...
Haha, should I thank you?
Because of the uneven journey, a Jiangzhou Tongpan and several guards died.
A few days later, the team finally arrived in the capital.
Only when I arrived in the capital did I learn that Feng Jun had passed away.
Because of the Right Prime Minister's conspiracy to rebel, Feng Jun had already been deposed, and he was not held accountable because he had given birth to the third princess and the third prince.
A criminal concubine who was deposed was naturally not qualified to enjoy the treatment of a queen.
Considering the past friendship and the fact that Prince Rui had made great contributions to disaster relief, the empress did not go too far and only ordered the Ministry of Rites to have Murong Hua buried in the imperial mausoleum as a servant of the emperor.
Is Ji Huachang resentful?
Of course I feel resentful.
But that person was her queen mother. She dared not and could not show any dissatisfaction. She could only suppress her anger and deal with her father's funeral.

Beichen Palace, Pavilion
"I didn't expect Feng Jun to end up like this."
Back then, Murong Hua was the most talented and beautiful woman in the capital, and many people wanted to marry her home, but no one expected that he would end up entering the palace.
Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. Since ancient times, the servants who entered the palace would become unrecognizable, and Murong Hua is no exception.
Many royal servants and palace maids died at Murong Hua's hands over the years, and he also offended many people. Ever since he fell out of favor, every royal servant in the harem would take advantage of his misfortune and harass him behind his back.
Murong Hua's current fate may be the retribution for the evil deeds he committed over the years.
"Are you free?" Di Ran asked casually, and his hand holding the chess piece placed it on the board slowly.
"Instead of spending time on gossip, you might as well think more about yourself."
"I?"
Yan Qingping was stunned: "What's wrong with me?"
Di Ran glanced at her and said calmly, "I heard that the empress scolded you several times? She even wanted to take away your position as the left prime minister?"
"You still have the mind to have fun?"
Hearing this, Yan Qingping curled his lips and sneered, "Oh, how can the power we have obtained be taken back so easily?"
Di Ran raised his eyebrows slightly: "Don't be too happy too soon, be careful of capsizing in the ditch."
Yan Qingping rolled his eyes: "Can you please stop attacking me?"
However, thinking about the obstacles encountered in the court these days, it is indeed troublesome.
Yan Qingping looked thoughtful and said in a serious tone, "This Yao Guijun is indeed a powerful person. I heard that the empress doted on him very much. She moved all the good things into his palace and even let him interfere in government affairs. Many ministers who opposed him were killed by the empress."
"This demon noble has great ambitions. I'm afraid he's an enemy rather than a friend."
As she spoke, she looked at her friend and frowned slightly: "What did you find out?"
Di Ran paused and pursed his lips: "I did find out some things."
"Oh?"
Yan Qingping was curious.
"Talk about it."
Di Ran glanced at her and said, "There was still a survivor in the Ye family back then."
"What?"
Is there anyone from the Ye family still alive?
Yan Qingping had also heard about the Ye family's affairs from his friends. It was also a secret history of the royal family that was not meant to be told to outsiders.
