Upon hearing his son's reminder, he suddenly realized what was happening and hurriedly pulled out a dark gold plaque, holding it above his head: "This is an imperial pardon bestowed by the Emperor. Who dares to kill me?"
The embroidered-robed envoys looked at each other and stopped their attack. They were a secret intelligence agency under the emperor, and could ignore the threats of any official, but they could not ignore the emperor's orders.
At this moment, Zuan was also a little annoyed, not expecting that this guy would have such a thing in his hands.
Historically, those who possessed such "immunity tokens" rarely met a good end. For example, during the Ming Dynasty, every single minister who held an "immunity token" issued by Zhu Yuanzhang was eventually executed along with their entire clan.
Of course, the emperor had the right to decide whether or not to grant a pardon, but his subjects could not overstep their bounds, otherwise they would arouse the emperor's suspicion.
Zuan had no choice but to point at Shi Jun and say, "There's only one immunity token. Since he doesn't have one, let's continue fighting."
Shi Jun was dumbfounded, never expecting that the clown was actually himself.
He hurriedly stretched out his hand across the stone seedling: "Father! Father! Quickly lend me the gold medal."
Zuan smiled without saying a word; this scene truly showed the father's kindness and the son's filial piety.
"Shut up!" Shi Miao was also exasperated. Had her son taken the wrong medicine today? How could he be so stupid? "This gold medal isn't just protecting one person. The Emperor himself said that as long as our Shi family doesn't rebel, this gold medal is enough to protect our entire family!"
Shi Jun then realized he had been completely stunned by these embroidered-robed messengers. Embarrassed, he glared at Zu An with resentment, especially at that guy.
Anger from Shi Jun: +233 +233 +233...
In the end, Shi Miao still managed to take Shi Jun away despite having a "get out of jail free" card. The people in the Embroidery Pavilion were hesitant to act rashly, and since the procedures for arresting Shi Jun were indeed problematic, they had no choice but to let them leave.
A group of embroidered-robed envoys, filled with righteous indignation, organized to go to the emperor to complain. However, Zu An knew that the emperor would most likely not care, after all, the Shi family's status was extraordinary, and in addition, Shi Kun had "accidentally" died in the Eastern Palace, so he could not be too harsh on him.
As expected, in the end the emperor only reprimanded Shi Miao and fined him a year's salary, which was not a serious matter, and the matter was dropped.
Just as Zu An was having a headache because Shi Jun was unable to investigate, a eunuch from Kunning Palace came to deliver a message: Her Majesty the Empress requests your presence.

Here's a word of advice: no matter how exciting the situation, never, ever risk your life. Otherwise, it will be too late to regret it later.
