As more and more officials gathered, the Shi Sheng grew irritated and ordered the imperial guards to chase all of them away.
The royalists who were scolding the emperor from the top of the city walls ran down to the bottom of the city walls to scold him.
Perhaps the Shi Sheng did not care much about their scolding, but these officials were getting bolder and bolder by the day.
Of course, these officials couldn't be blamed entirely. The main problem was that Shi Sheng's actions were completely against the rules of etiquette and common sense. It was already good enough that she was only scolded and not deposed from the position of the Empress.
The Shi Sheng stood on the city walls and looked at the crowd below.
The man in the bamboo hat was very conspicuous. The Shi Sheng saw him at first glance and sized him up. Based on the norm, someone who was afraid that others would see his face was obviously up to something.
Sometimes, he could casually change his clothes, put on makeup, or change his hairstyle and throw himself into the crowd. Only true fans would be able to recognize him. She did not understand why he had to wear a bamboo hat. He was obviously more conspicuous in a crowd of ordinary people.
The man in the bamboo hat probably sensed the Shi Sheng's gaze and looked over. At that moment, their eyes seemed to meet in the air and sparks flew.
The corners of the Shi Sheng's mouth curved slightly. He suddenly raised his hand and waved. "Catch the man in the bamboo hat."
The imperial guards below immediately looked in the direction the Shi Sheng was pointing and surrounded the man in the bamboo hat.
Before the imperial guards could get close, the man in the bamboo hat flew up and landed on the city walls easily.
The imperial guards on the city walls were shocked and immediately surrounded the man in the bamboo hat.
The man in the bamboo hat did not care about the imperial guards at all. His gaze fell on the Shi Sheng through the black veil. "I heard that the Empress of Fengluan only knows how to eat, drink, and play. She is addicted to beauty. Now it seems that it is just a rumor."
The Shi Sheng waved his hand and dismissed the imperial guards. "How is it a rumor? I am going to use the imperial jade seal to exchange for the safety of the Empress. You are still addicted to beauty."
He was addicted to his wife's beauty.
The man in the bamboo hat looked at Chen Bei, who was surrounded by people in the distance. "Is that the Seventh Prince of the Shu Kingdom?"
"The antidote, the imperial jade seal." Shi Sheng ignored the man in the bamboo hat and stretched out his hand. "Do you want to trade?"
The bamboo hat man narrowed his eyes and a trace of doubt flashed through his eyes. "Her Majesty the Empress is giving me the Imperial Jade Seal just like that? Just for a man? There are so many men in the world. If he dies, you can have more. "
Shi Sheng said impatiently, "Why do you talk so much nonsense? Are you going to trade or not? Just say it!"
What's the use of blindly blabbering so much, young man? Can't we be more straightforward!!!
The man in the bamboo hat: "…"
This Empress was a little different from what he had imagined. If he couldn't play this trick, then should he switch or not?
The Man in Bamboo Hat glanced at Shi Sheng. There was a 50% chance that he was lying …
However, the Imperial Jade Seal was an opportunity.
"Your Majesty, please tell me how you want to make the exchange. How can I be sure that you will let me leave safely after the exchange?" There were so many imperial guards in the open, but he didn't know if there were more in the dark.
"Aiyo, didn't you say you could fly just now? I didn't set up an inescapable net. Why don't you fly? "Shi Sheng said sarcastically.
The man in the bamboo hat: "…"
Why did he suddenly want to strangle her to death?
"It seems that Your Majesty's sincerity in exchanging the antidote ends here," the man in the bamboo hat said. "I wonder if Your Majesty's royal concubine can survive until nightfall."
"Are you threatening me?" How bold of you!
How dare you threaten I!!
Where's I's sword!
The man in the bamboo hat stood there calmly and didn't reply, but his meaning was obvious. I am threatening you, and you have no choice but to be threatened by me.
Shi Sheng glanced at Chen Bei and raised his eyebrows. "Then how do I know that the antidote you are giving me is real?"
"Your Majesty the Empress is sincere, so I will naturally give you the real antidote. My goal is only the Imperial Jade Seal."
"It seems that the Imperial Jade Seal is a treasure. What's inside?" Shi Sheng glanced at the Imperial Jade Seal. The Imperial Jade Seal of the Fengluan Kingdom had existed for a long time. No one could tell which dynasty the Imperial Jade Seal came from and which emperor it was.
The man in the bamboo hat obviously didn't want Shi Sheng to know what the Imperial Jade Seal was for. "Your Majesty the Empress, I can still return the Imperial Jade Seal to you after you use it. You won't lose anything."
Shi Sheng's eyes flickered. That meant he wanted the complete Imperial Jade Seal.
Shi Sheng suddenly took a step back and reached out to pull the Imperial Jade Seal off. He held the Imperial Jade Seal by the silk belt and stretched out of the city wall. "Throw the antidote over. I will throw the Imperial Jade Seal down. If you catch it, it will be yours."
The man in the bamboo hat was probably afraid that Shi Sheng would throw the Imperial Jade Seal down, so he was a little nervous. However, he didn't want Shi Sheng to see through him, so he only took a step forward and quickly retracted his steps.
"Your Majesty the Empress …"
"Three …"
Shi Sheng loosened his grip and the silk belt slid down. The man in the bamboo hat probably didn't expect Shi Sheng to be so decisive. He didn't seem to care that he couldn't get the antidote at all.
"One …" Shi Sheng suddenly loosened his grip and the Imperial Jade Seal fell from the city wall.
The man in the bamboo hat was shocked. Where is the second?!
Did you eat the second?!
The imperial guards had unknowingly set up their crossbows and aimed at him the moment Shi Sheng finished speaking. If they tried to stop him, he definitely wouldn't be able to catch the Imperial Jade Seal. Therefore, the man in the bamboo hat decisively took out the antidote and threw it to Shi Sheng. At the same time, he also rushed out.
This series of actions didn't take much time, but when he rushed out, the Imperial Jade Seal had already fallen halfway to the city wall.
Just as he was about to grab the Imperial Jade Seal, a few people suddenly rushed out from the bottom of the city wall and flew up to snatch the Imperial Jade Seal.
Shi Sheng propped himself up and looked down.
The man in the bamboo hat was already fighting with the people who suddenly rushed out. Those people were obviously in the same group. The Imperial Jade Seal was being passed around by them, and the man in the bamboo hat was so angry that he started killing.
"Your Majesty, they look a bit like people from the Kingdom of Shu." Ling Yi was also lying on the city wall with Shi Sheng.
"If they want the Imperial Jade Seal so much, then let them all have a share." Shi Sheng laughed sinisterly. A light flashed from his palm, and the Imperial Jade Seal that was originally in his hand suddenly flew up into the sky.
The people below all looked at this scene in a daze and even forgot to fight.
After the Imperial Jade Seal flew up, a simple array appeared below it. Light emitted from the array and enveloped the Imperial Jade Seal as it spun at high speed.
In the eyes of the crowd, it was a spinning ball of light. It looked very strange in the air.
Shi Sheng turned and walked towards Chen Bei. He was so calm that the shocked imperial physicians checked whether there was any problem with the antidote. The imperial physicians couldn't concentrate and it took a while for them to confirm that there was no problem.
Of course, they could only guarantee that there was no problem with the antidote itself. Whether it could cure the poison or not, they didn't know. They couldn't bear this responsibility.
Shi Sheng expressionlessly fed the antidote to Chen Bei, causing the imperial physicians to tremble in fear. He fed it just like that …
What if it wasn't the antidote?
What if it worsened the poison in the Royal Concubine's body!!
Your Majesty, why are you so impulsive!!
Before the imperial physicians could roar, they heard a moderate explosion outside the city wall.
Everyone looked up at the same time and saw a firework explode in the sky. Like fireflies, the light scattered all over the sky. It was very beautiful.
Everyone looked at it with a dumbfounded expression and couldn't recover for a long time.
The Imperial Jade Seal … exploded?!
