Su Lijin was almost frightened to the point of cardiac arrest.
She covered her mouth, trying hard not to make a sound of shock, and stared with wide eyes as the secret room slowly opened completely before her eyes.
The clicking sound didn't stop until the chamber was completely opened.
Staring at the secret room that suddenly appeared in front of her, she was shocked and almost doubted what she saw.
Looking at the place she had accidentally pressed, Su Lijin swallowed her saliva and said, "I never thought there would be such a secret room in the Empress Dowager's Palace!"
No wonder she couldn't find anything unexpected in the palace, let alone any evidence of the Queen Mother's guilt.
It turns out that there is another secret here!
Maybe the evidence she is looking for is hidden in the secret room!
Thinking of this, Su Lijin hurried in, not daring to delay.
If time had passed slower, perhaps the Queen Mother and the others would have returned.
After entering the secret room, Su Lijin discovered that this secret room was almost as big as the entire inner room of the bedroom. It was a room that looked like a bedroom built underground.
Looking at this place, her eyes searched closely.
There was a whole row of portraits hanging against the wall in the secret room. Su Lijin took a closer look and found that they were all portraits of the same person.
“They are all the paintings of the late emperor!”
She sighed. She had heard before that the Queen Mother was very fond of the late Emperor and had even used some means to seduce him. It seemed that the Queen Mother was indeed very possessive of the late Emperor.
Looking at these portraits, it was not difficult for her to imagine how the Queen Mother would use all means to win favor from this man when she was young.
After looking at the scroll, her eyes fell on several other things.
There is also a box here, which is very simple and gorgeous, and seems to contain something precious and secret.
Su Lijin's eyes flickered slightly, and she always felt that there was something she was looking for in it.
He raised his hand to open the box, and saw a note and a jade pendant.
At the very bottom, there was a whole box of things that looked like fireworks.
"These are..."
Staring at those things that looked like fireworks, Su Lijin took a look and felt that they were very similar to ordinary fireworks, yet somewhat different.
There seems to be some mystery above.
After thinking about it, Su Lijin picked up one and looked at it, frowning slightly.
Putting down the firework-like object, she took out the notebook and then put everything else back in place.
The Queen Mother will definitely check these things frequently. If they are not restored to their original position, they will easily be discovered by the Queen Mother.
"We have to leave quickly. If someone comes, we'll be in trouble." After taking a last look at the secret room, Su Lijin left immediately and closed the mechanism.
The secret room in the Queen Mother's bedroom was quietly closed, and everything was silent, as if nothing had happened.
Su Lijin glanced back and sighed, "No wonder the Queen Mother hid it so well."
She couldn't help but admire the Queen Mother's cunning means. If she hadn't accidentally pressed the mechanism, who would have thought that there was a secret room hidden in this palace?
Arriving at a secret and safe place, Su Lijin hid in a corner and took out the letter from her arms.
When she opened it, she was a little stunned. There were actually times and dates recorded on it, just like a daily diary, recording trivial thoughts.
Reading through the pages bit by bit, Su Lijin sighed softly, "It actually records the Empress Dowager's childhood thoughts. I never thought she had already been in love with the late Emperor since then."
It is written above that when the Empress Dowager was a young girl, she first met the late emperor and fell in love with the handsome and mighty late emperor.
Later, step by step, she became the concubine of the late emperor, fulfilling an important step in her love for the late emperor.
After entering the harem, the Queen Mother noticed that the Queen at that time was very favored, and she became jealous.
"Wait, is this referring to the emperor's biological mother, the late queen?" Su Lijin couldn't help but raise her eyebrows in surprise as she read on.
She thought about it and continued reading. The content became more and more crazy, which showed that the Queen Mother's jealousy was becoming more and more cold.
The following records show that the empress dowager, who was twisted by jealousy, plotted to frame the late queen. She recorded every trick and conspiracy in her notebook, writing them down clearly.
Su Lijin looked at those vicious methods, her brows furrowed tighter and tighter, until she saw the last one, she was filled with anger and terror.
"The Queen Mother is a mad woman. She actually killed the late Queen and threw her body into a snake pond, letting countless snakes eat the late Queen's body!"
How could someone come up with such an incredible, vicious and cruel plan!
The contents of the letter shocked Su Lijin's mind. She never thought that the late queen would die in this way. Her body was not even intact after death and was eaten clean by a snake!
The Queen Mother is truly vicious to the extreme! She is a complete and venomous woman!
She tightly grasped the letter, unable to bear it any longer, and hurried to the imperial study.
In the imperial study, Xiao Shengxing was still handling government affairs very diligently.
Su Lijin looked at it and suddenly felt reluctant to let him read the letter.
"Shiqi? Why are you here?" Xiao Shengxing noticed her and put down the memorial in his hand.
"Why do you look so bad?" Su Lijin didn't say anything, but Xiao Shengxing pulled her over.
She shook her head, but the notebook in her hand accidentally fell to the ground.
"This is……"
Just as she was about to pick it up, Xiao Shengxing took it in his hand first and looked at her in confusion.
The emperor must know the truth eventually. The matter of his biological mother has always been a knot in his heart. Su Lijin also wants him to know the truth and untie the knot that has been in his heart for many years.
Thinking about it, she said in a low voice: "Take a look, it's about your biological mother."
