She helplessly closed one book after another, but she still could not find the answer she wanted.
Her intuition told her that the truth was not that simple. However, with her current power, it was impossible for her to continue investigating. If she knew the truth, she might be dragged into even more troublesome matters…She did not have the ability to escape unscathed.
The Jingling Palace was always a place wrapped in secrets.
The more he knew, the faster he would die.
It was better to be careful and take it slow…
"This is troublesome."
At this moment, she glanced at the shelf next to her. There was an old cowhide book on the shelf, and on the spine was written the Secrets of Tranquil Court's Aristocratic Family Tree.
Would there really be nobles who would write their family tree everywhere?
She opened the book and wanted to flip through it casually, but she realized that a part of it was missing.
The table of contents was complete, but the content of a family was torn out, resulting in three pages missing. Due to the poor maintenance of the books in the library, it was normal for pages to be missing. However, the situation with this book was different. The way it was bound made it difficult for the pages to be neatly torn off-so this could only have been done on purpose.
Who would want to erase the existence of a noble family's history?
She was a little curious.
" Yuanshan Family. The family head is the hero of the 13th Court Guard Squad. He has been the captain of the 3rd Squad for nearly 100 years…"
The beginning was very normal, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with it. However, the family tree that had been passed down to the generation more than a hundred years ago suddenly stopped and disappeared. There were no introductions to the descendants.
It was as if he had evaporated into thin air. The only thing that could be used as a reference was that it mentioned that the last family head had a close relationship with the then family head of the Xiu Mu family.
She opened her eyes wide, wanting to find some detailed clues, but found nothing.
If it was Xiu Mu Bai Zai, he might know some inside information about this family. But she couldn't ask him directly. They were far from being familiar with each other.
"It's clearly the forbidden area, but why is there a lack of information?”Finally, she shook her head in disappointment.
Truly unbelievable.
He had wasted an entire night.
"Oh, little girl, it's almost closing time. Pack up and get ready to leave."
At the same time, the administrator opened the wooden door of the inner room and called out to her in an old voice. She looked up and saw the stars in the sky outside the skylight. Unknowingly, it was already late at night…
"I'm sorry, I'll go back now. You've worked hard today." She quickly put the book back in her hand and bowed to him.
"It's fine, it's fine." He waved his hand.
Straightening his back, Joe took a few books on the ghost path and went through the borrowing procedures as a cover. Then, he hurriedly left the library and returned to the dormitory. After spending such a long time, she almost got nothing, which made her very annoyed. If he had known this would happen, he would have asked Ijuin for a permanent pass to the restricted area of the library.
What she didn't realize was that after she left, a mysterious shadow slowly walked out of the darkness.
A pair of faint lights were reflected from the mirror frame.
Then, a faint smile appeared.
