Chapter 167 So Poor
Liu Shiqi followed Old Man Zhong into the gate of the imperial mausoleum and was stunned.
Because, in front of her was a particularly empty and huge circular space, but it was empty and there was nothing inside.
It's like a round swimming pool with no water in it.
The height is about two meters.
This is completely different from what Liu Shiqi expected.
She couldn't help rubbing her eyes.
Make sure you are not seeing things.
It's really empty here, there's nothing.
She stiffened her neck and turned to ask Old Man Zhong.
"Is this the innermost part of the imperial mausoleum?"
Old Man Zhong nodded.
"right!"
Liu Shiqi asked again.
"Are you sure? Then why is there nothing?"
Old Man Zhong rolled his eyes at her and said.
"Yes, there is really nothing in here!"
"What did you expect?"
"Do you think there will be gold, silver, treasures, or a big coffin or something?"
Liu Shiqi nodded and said.
"Yes, yes, I thought there would be gold and silver treasures in here, or a big golden coffin!"
"Or a crystal coffin would be fine too!"
"Isn't this the only way to be worthy of the status of an empress?"
"In the end, there's nothing in here?"
"Where's the Empress?"
Liu Shiqi walked in a few steps and looked around.
The ceiling of the hall is inlaid with many large and small luminous pearls, so the hall is quite bright.
She asked Old Man Zhong suspiciously.
"Could it be that tomb robbers came here first and took everything away?"
Old man Zhong couldn't help but hit her head and cursed.
"What nonsense!"
“It’s always been like this here!”
"Which tomb robber can walk in alive?"
Liu Shiqi held his head and said with a pout.
"But, there should be a coffin in a normal grave!"
Old Man Zhong glanced at her and said.
"Such a secret imperial tomb, do you think it's normal?"
After he finished speaking, he realized that his words were disrespectful, and he quickly put his hands together and bowed to the empty hall.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me, that's not what I meant!"
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry with us!"
After Old Man Zhong finished speaking, he pressed Liu Shiqi's head and bowed to the empty hall.
Yoo Si Chil?
After doing all this, Old Man Zhong whispered to Liu Shiqi.
"Hey, you little bitch!"
"Speak with respect!"
"Don't dare to talk nonsense!"
Liu Shiqi was speechless.
I thought, “It’s obviously my grandfather who is talking nonsense!” 】
[And you still blame me!] 】
[Disrespect for the elderly...]
Old man Zhong was so angry that he pressed her head again and bowed several times to the hall.
Liu Shiqi is numb...
Old man Zhong calmed down and let Liu Shiqi's head go.
Then he whispered, "Alas!"
"It's a saying that's been passed down from generation to generation!"
"It is said that the empress died for the sake of the country and the people, and her body was completely destroyed!"
"So, there is no coffin!"
Liu Shiqi raised his eyebrows.
[Shouldn't the normal practice be to set up a cenotaph? 】
[Doesn’t a cenotaph also need a coffin?] 】
Old Man Zhong nodded. In fact, he thought so too.
But these are the only stories passed down by the older generation.
So he didn't know what was going on.
Liu Shiqi thought again, "The empress sacrificed herself for the country and the people, which is also great!" 】
[In fact, before she died, the empress probably didn’t care whether there was a body left or not! 】
[Just like in my previous life, didn’t I also die with dignity and righteousness in the end! 】
[In the end, he was blown away by a bomb, and there should be no trace of his body left! 】
[But I’m already dead, do I still care what happens to my body…]
[I don’t care at all…]
[But the empress is luckier than me. At least, she still has a grave! 】
[And people from my grandfather's generation are guarding his tomb! 】
[As for me, I guess I had nothing in my previous life!] 】
Old man Zhong was stunned.
I opened my mouth to say something comforting, but in the end, everything got stuck in my throat and I couldn't say anything.
His eyes were full of heartache as he looked at Liu Shiqi.
He couldn't help but pat Liu Shiqi's head gently and said.
"Stinky girl..."
“Everything will be fine!”
Liu Shiqi was stunned, wondering why Old Man Zhong suddenly felt so emotional.
She could only nod in agreement.
"Oh, OK!"
Liu Shiqi looked around carefully.
It was discovered that the walls surrounding the hall were made up of rectangular stones about four feet wide and two feet high, all of which were grayish white.
The ground is covered with green square slabs.
Liu Shiqi asked old man Zhong.
"Grandfather, I heard from my third sister that the spirit dragon you used to heal my wounds was taken from the Black Gate."
"But isn't there nothing here?"
"Where did the spirit dragon come from?"
Old Man Zhong was speechless. He didn't expect that Liu Xin had told Liu Shiqi.
I thought of Liu Shiqi's character of getting to the bottom of things.
He could only speak frankly.
"Look, the walls here are very flat, right?"
“But in fact, many walls can be moved!”
Liu Shiqi followed Old Man Zhong and walked to a wall.
Then I saw Old Man Zhong pushing the wall hard.
The wall slowly opened backwards.
Liu Shiqi curiously leaned over to take a look.
I found that there was an exquisite little room inside.
There are rows of shelves standing in the middle of the house.
There are many boxes and books on the shelves.
Old man Zhong walked in first.
Liu Shiqi caught up and said in surprise.
"Hey, there are so many things!"
"Then you said there was nothing in the imperial mausoleum! Isn't it all here?"
Old man Zhong rolled his eyes again.
"There's no gold, silver or treasure in here!"
"There's no golden coffin like you wanted to see!"
"There are only some books and medicinal herbs in here!"
"And some things that the empress often used when she was alive!"
Liu Shiqi walked around inside curiously.
These are indeed some very lifelike things.
For example, this room should be a study, with bookshelves, desks, and things like the four treasures of the study.
They went to the next room.
It looks like a bedroom inside.
There are bed curtains, wardrobe, coffee table, screen, and dressing table.
Liu Shiqi discovered that the clothes in the closet were all plain and elegant colors, and there were also many riding uniforms and armor.
The other room was like a flower hall, with tables, chairs and benches for guests and hosts, as well as tea sets.
What attracted Liu Shiqi's attention most was a painting on the innermost wall, which showed a person wearing armor. Figure on horseback. But I couldn't see his face clearly.
There is another room that looks like an armory. There are various weapons inside, such as knives, forks, swords, halberds, whips, etc.
They all look like they have been used many times.
Obviously, the empress is a female general-like figure.
There are also some rooms, such as kitchen, pharmacy, etc.
Liu Shiqi looked at them all and was amazed.
[This is to move all the things used by the empress during her lifetime into this imperial mausoleum! 】
[This is similar to the royal tombs I saw in my previous life! 】
[However, this empress is so poor!] 】
[There is no treasure house or anything!] 】
[After walking around for so long, I didn’t find anything valuable! 】
Liu Shiqi was stunned.
"Oh, that's right!"
"Aren't we here to look for Brother Zhuang?"
"Where is Brother Zhuang?"
Old Man Zhong...
hehe!
He thought she couldn't remember...
