Recording department, underground center.

After a great war, the book collection area here has been burnt down seven or

eighty-eight, but since most of the books are backed up, the loss of the Privy

Council is not too serious. It only takes some time to count and burn it. It’s

only a matter of time before the books are restored to their previous

appearance.

As for the question that the backup book is not the original, the second

prince doesn't care. For him, the important thing about the book is the

information on it, not the text or the paper itself. Compared with this point,

he is more concerned about the secrets hidden in the secret grid or dark room-

such as the fourth room used to place the fairy magic, there are traces of

destruction inside the iron gate.

At this time, an official from the list department walked to the second

prince's side, "His Royal Highness, I have thoroughly counted them, and all

the inheritance of immortality has not been lost."

"The magic eyes are all intact?"

"Yes, they haven't even moved their position, which proves that the crystal

cabinet has not been forcibly opened."

These words made Ning Qianshi a little relieved.

"However, there are two secret records that record fairy arts. I don't know if

they were burned or taken out of the recording department." The official

continued.

"Should all these important information be backed up?"

"Yes, there are at least three printed copies and one manuscript in Shangyuan

City."

"That's fine, the fairy art itself is hidden in the eyes of the demon. The

secret record is only a supplement. Even if it is smuggled back to the West

Pole, it will not be of much use."

"His Royal Highness," Feinian asked, arching his hands, "Do you think Olena

Okan stole these secret records?"

"The iron door that is two feet thick does not damage the exterior, but starts

from the keyhole and melts the lock core with high temperature. This is like

her natural fire-free technique." Ning Qianshi analyzed, "With her With

insight, you should be able to judge that the magic techniques in these secret

records are extraordinary. As for why you didn't move your eyes, it should be

related to Xia Fan's secret delay."

"So, Xia Fan is really bad at Lishu." Fei Nian thoughtfully, "During the trial

in Qingshan Town, he couldn't even display the most basic flying flames."

"Why, do you doubt that group of Jinxia?"

"No, Your Highness, I just want to think more and plan ahead."

"Correct attitude." The second prince applauded, "It is the basic quality of

alchemists not to use Shangguan's viewpoint as the basis for judgment.

Otherwise, if Shangguan judges wrongly, the concept based on this is just a

fragile quicksand tower. It is a pity. Few alchemists can really do this. By

the way...how is the matter that you investigated?"

Feinian realized that the other party was referring to the "sudden rise in the

ranking", "Sorry, your highness, there is no result for the time being.

However, I have asked someone to review the entire personnel file and should

be able to find some clues."

"The changes on the Ten Thousand Lights Festival have dragged down your

progress, right?" Ning Qianshi waved his hand disapprovingly, "After all, you

have been under house arrest for nearly a week in the palace. No progress

can't be blamed on you."

Not all blame, but there is still a certain responsibility. The alchemist of

the Privy Council should have the ability to overcome surprises and

challenges.

Feinian felt tight behind her back and quickly lowered her head, "I will find

out this matter as soon as possible."

...

Leaving the recording department, Feinian rode to another luxurious house in

Dongcheng District.

It seems to be a place where wealthy families live, with a front garden flower

gallery and a pond pavilion, but in fact it is an estate purchased by the

Privy Council to transfer letters and records sent from various places, and it

is also responsible for the preservation of part of the recording department

Spare books.

There are more than a dozen hidden branches like this in Shangyuan City, and

even the emperor Dangchao can't know their location.

The twenty-something people are busy looking at the rebuilt documents in the

mansion-they are all recorders trained by the Privy Council, they are used to

update and verify the contents of the documents. A volume of hundreds of pages

of cases are in their hands. It only takes two hours to complete the scan. In

a sense, even those who are moved cannot replace their duties.

"Master Fei."

Seeing Feinian's arrival, everyone saluted.

"Don't worry about me, you continue to be busy." He walked to the presiding

judge's desk and asked, "Have you found any new mistakes?"

"It's all recorded in the booklet, please ask Master Fei to check it out." The

presiding judge handed over a booklet.

As of today, the recorder has found more than 50 different places in the old

and new documents. Most of them are omissions or mistakes, which are of no

help to the investigation of Xia Fan's ranking. If it weren't for these

documents as the main reference basis for Heer's ranking, he really doubted

whether he was wasting his energy.

Feinian quickly turned to the last page.

There are only three newly found fault records.

One is that the name of the Suzhou alchemist is incorrectly recorded.

One is that the information recorded by the Shangyuan alchemist is incorrect.

One is that the death record of the Lingzhou alchemist is confused with the

other.

No matter which one, they are tens of thousands of miles away from Shenzhou.

Below the three faults, there is a further description of the presiding judge.

The typos of the name and the confusion of the death record are both self-

explanatory, but the second one is a little more complicated. A son of a large

family who passed the examination and was supposed to be appointed to the post

was later found to be still in the city.

Of course, this can be regarded as a common situation. Such people have a rich

family background and don't worry about life, but they have awakened their

emotional ability. Going to participate in the examination is purely to pass

the time, and there is no idea of working for the Privy Council. However, in

the old version of the document, this person was recorded as a "coming for

duty" status, which is a minor oversight.

The alchemist was named "Shangguan Cai" and his place of appointment was

Leizhou.

Feinian put down the booklet and rubbed his forehead.

It seems that today is nothing.

Just as he was about to leave the mansion, a recorder hurriedly handed a note

to the reviewer. After the latter took it, he frowned and called Feinian. "My

lord, please stay. There seems to be something wrong with the record on the

document."

"Have you found any new errors?"

"It's not new...it's still related to the official official~www.mtlnovel.com~

Oh?" Fei Nian returned to the other party's table and picked up the note-

with a transfer order written on it. Cai Tune reports to Jinxia City.

"How could..." Seeing this, he couldn't help but jump for the first time.

"It's impossible to transfer a person who doesn't exist?"

"It is true." The reviewer agreed, "This report from Leizhou is concise and

clear, and the possibility of writing errors is unlikely, so there are only

two possibilities for this situation."

"First, Shangguan Cai belonged to a fugitive official who promised to take

office and fled halfway. This person went to Leizhou and Jinxia successively,

and then returned to Gyeonggi without asking to resign. Although she was

cancelled in the new document integration, she did not It means that the old

report is wrong."

"And the second possibility is—"

Feinian took his words and said, "Someone imposted Shangguancai's appointment

and moved from Leizhou to Jinxia, and he is still serving in the Jinxia

Privy Council at this moment." He squeezed the note tightly, "I need

everything. Regarding the records of Shangguancai, go find them all now!"
