Song Jia climbed the stairs to the second floor of the Imperial reference library.
The elderly librarian did not follow her.
He did not need to.
There were two attendants positioned near the stairwell and another sitting behind a desk on the second floor.
All three wore plain robes.
All three also had cultivation levels much higher than ordinary librarians should possess.
Song Jia noticed.
Naturally.
She said nothing.
The shelves on the second floor contained older Imperial publications.
Administrative summaries.
Military reports approved for public circulation.
Records of official appointments.
Border changes.
Taxation.
Disasters.
Supply routes.
Most people preparing for the competition would probably come here for law, history or military strategy.
Song Jia walked toward the section labeled:
Military Administration — Historical Records
She found the title quickly.
Northern Supply Reorganization and Special Military Transfers.
