What? Was he dumbfounded? I didn't expect that there would be such a hidden mystery in my room, but there was no other way around it. There were many people staring at the lotus, and if I didn't keep it properly, I wouldn't be able to keep my position as the First Lady.

I only felt that it was extremely interesting, I didn't expect that after moving a few books, there would be another world behind the bookshelves.

Very few people know about Zhen Mi, only a few of my trusted aides know about the existence of this secret chamber. You're really lucky, I felt that we were fated to meet each other as soon as I saw you, the way you talk I love to listen to you, so today I will let you experience the greatest secret of Tianhua Palace.

I felt really honored. It seems that I had gotten lucky from this disaster. Initially, I thought that with such a mishap, if I didn't manage to handle it properly, we would all be exposed. Unexpectedly, it was precisely because of Dongshan's harassment of me that I was recognized and noticed by the First Lady.

The items in the secret chamber were quite colorful. There were all kinds of rare treasures here, and even in the outside world, there were not many that could be found.

Looking left and right, there was no trace of the seven-step lotus flower. She had hidden herself so deeply that nothing could be seen in the secret room. This woman's shrewdness was truly extraordinary.

I have to put on a show. I can't seem too anxious about the current situation, it would be easier for me to be found out. He could see even the slightest trace of a woman as shrewd as him.

How about it? How are my things?

The First Lady was, from the bottom of her heart, vain. She loved to show off, including her looks, her wealth, and everything else.

I naturally wanted to go along with her words, I have never seen so many treasures in my life, madam, you are simply my idol. I originally only knew that women are subordinate to men, but now that I see you, such a noble and noble lady, this is my role model.

Now that I'm home, the First Lady smiled proudly.

That's right, women had to rely on themselves, what was the point of living off men? Right, didn't you want to see that peerless lotus flower? He's actually in this room, but I don't think you'll ever know where he is even if you beat him to death.

This woman really knew how to keep people in suspense. Could it be? He still doubted his own choice. Ever since I entered, I said that I had looked over everything. There weren't any lotuses at all.

I can't compare the Madam's ability to collect things. I really can't guess where he is, so don't play with me.

I couldn't help but reveal an impatient look. After all, tomorrow is the day when the grand show will happen. If I don't get my things before then, then I won't have another chance after that.

Today, I want to confirm where the lotus flower really is.

Do you see the bonsai over there?

Actually, I had already noticed the bonsai since I came here. The flowerpot was meticulously carved and extremely beautiful, but there was only a withered floral branch on the entire bonsai.

I thought it was some kind of rare breed, but it died from feeding.

Could it be that the withered floral branch was actually the seven-step lotus flower? From the looks of it, the lotus had already withered. Could it be that the rumors in the outside world were not true and the lotus no longer existed?

Yes, ma'am, but it seems to me to have withered.

That lotus flower had a spiritual nature. It knew how precious it was, and many people wanted it for themselves. So, that was one of the methods she used to protect herself. She was good at disguising herself.

As he spoke, he used a small knife to cut open his finger and dripped his blood on the already withered floral branch.

Then, a miraculous scene appeared. The withered floral branch gradually bloomed, as if it had a fresh life of its own. I could not help but exclaim, ”The wonder of the Creator, how many spiritual flowers exist in this world.”

The flower gradually bloomed, with seven petals. Its entire body was snow-white, and its yellow stamens flickered with a white light. Those who were determined to dodge could not open their eyes.

How magical! Could this be the legendary seven-step lotus flower?

This sentence was heartfelt admiration, those who have never seen it will never understand its magic. Thinking about using the petals of this flower to make a scented sachet, my heart still doesn't feel good.

That's right, you didn't expect it, right? Even if there was someone who could accidentally barge into my place and break their brains, they would never have thought that this withered floral branch was actually the one they were looking for.

Then, I have a question. Then, why did you use your blood to irrigate it? Would it awaken in full bloom? What if it was someone else's effort?

I have to clear up this question. If someone else's blood is useless, then it would be useless to bring the bonsai back. It would be a complete waste.

Actually, I had also accidentally acquired this seven-step lotus flower. At that time, he was just like before, a withered floral branch. He silently collapsed in a corner.
