"Furthermore, the current emperor's great victory over the demon race brought him immense prestige, and gradually no one mentioned it anymore."
As the siblings discussed these matters, Zu'an felt his hair stand on end. In that instant, he seemed to understand many things, and many of his previous doubts gradually began to have clues.
Unfortunately, we are still some distance away from finding out the truth.
"Brother Zu, what's wrong?" Xie Daoyun, who was chatting with her younger brother, kept glancing at Zu An and couldn't help but ask when she noticed his unusual behavior.
"It's nothing, I'm just a bit shocked," Zu'an said, trying to cover it up.
Xie Daoyun comforted her, "Don't worry, as long as you don't deliberately talk about these things everywhere, it should be fine. After all, so much time has passed."
Zu An nodded: "Thank you for the reminder, Dao Yun."
...
Not long after finishing the meal, Zu'an got up to say goodbye and leave. Xie Daoyun noticed that he was distracted, but did not try to stop him. She just reminded him to be careful on the way.
After leaving the academy, Zu An headed straight for the palace, as he needed to verify some things.

"Where is the archive?" Zuan asked.
Xiao Jianren said with a smile, "Sir, just ask me whatever you want to investigate."
Although he wouldn't dare claim to have read all the books in the collection, he could answer most questions with ease.
Zuan shook his head: "No need, I'll go take a look myself."
Xiao Jianren felt a chill run down his spine. As an Embroidered-Robe Envoy, he keenly realized that the other party did not want him to know what they wanted to investigate.
He naturally wouldn't make a fool of himself by offering his help again, so he quickly gave him directions: "Sir, you can just go directly there. You have a top-level identity, so you can freely access most of the files, except for some top-secret files that require the President's personal approval."
Zu An thought that what he had investigated shouldn't be classified as top secret, nodded to him, and then walked straight to the archives.
