Chapter 1924 Return to the Topic
In the Gongsun Gui night attack incident, Li Shaojun was undoubtedly the one who took the blame.

Some things that are difficult or hard to explain can be attributed to the master Li Shaojun.

It was not until they reviewed the war after the battle that Zhang Xuezhou came up with a strange answer, that is, it was most likely the young Huo Qubing who solved everyone's troubles at the time.

This judgment once seemed outrageous to Zhang Xuezhou.

But after hearing Li Shaojun introduce his own situation, Zhang Xuezhou felt that outrageous things became normal.

Huo Qubing was not the only one. Li Shaojun also had a similar situation.

It was not until Li Shaojun encountered the Yin-Yang Mirror that the strange influence that had plagued Li Shaojun for half his life finally disappeared by half.

"Do you think we can get that mirror and use it to see if there's anything wrong?" Li Shaojun asked in a low voice.

"I think it's feasible!"

Zhang Xuezhou blinked slightly. Li Shaojun's life and death were controlled by Bai, but he learned Bai's skills, so the troubles he suffered were not as many as Li Shaojun's.

Whatever Li Shaojun wants to do in this regard is a good thing, and Zhang Xuezhou feels that he can support him unconditionally. The only problem is that he will not do it himself.

"I don't know if I can illuminate the extraterritorial demon in my brain!"

If the matter was to deal with 'Bai', Zhang Xuezhou would not be very interested. However, if the Yin-Yang Mirror could potentially deal with the extraterritorial demons, and he could rely on death to get rid of the entanglement like Li Shaojun, then the matter would be very attractive to Zhang Xuezhou.

In this matter, Zhang Xuezhou strongly supports Li Shaojun.

"Then we have to cooperate again after we get through this wave, and try to sneak into the fairyland as soon as possible and steal the mirror," Li Shaojun whispered.

"Makes sense!"

Zhang Xuezhou nodded.

"Do the current things first and worry about the other things later," Rong Tianding advised.

Seeing Zhang Xuezhou entering a perfunctory mode of agreement, Rong Tianding also helped to interrupt, trying to get Li Shaojun back on track.

Although Rong Tianding and Yishuo had quarrels, Rong Tianding still felt sympathetic towards Yishuo because her parents had died.

He knew a lot about Yishuo, and he hoped that Yishuo would get what he wanted soon, and that those involved would receive the punishment they deserved, rather than ending it quietly with no answer.

"You need to find the medicine gourd now. This is the key point." Zhang Xuezhou nodded and said, "Especially, we need to check the people involved in that year!"

"This is what the old lady wants to do," said Li Shaojun.

"What if she can't find it?" Zhang Xuezhou said, "Then we still have to take action!"

"Makes sense!"

Li Shaojun learned Zhang Xuezhou's lyrics and responded in a very perfunctory manner.

He was unfamiliar with Chang'an City and obviously had no interest in this kind of thing. He had no idea how to investigate old cases, so it would be very difficult for him to get involved.

Zhang Xuezhou was not in a hurry to get along with the other party, so he just told Li Shaojun to communicate as much as possible about the relevant matters. It would be a good thing if they could help.

"You're not planning on this gourd, are you?"

Even though Zhang Xuezhou was trying to conceal his words, Li Shaojun was still able to keenly sense that something was wrong with Zhang Xuezhou.

Li Shaojun knew that he was a person who would not do anything without benefits, and the same was true for Zhang Xuezhou beside him.

Li Shaojun felt that Zhang Xuezhou had taken a little initiative in the Empress Dowager's investigation of the case, which made him feel that Zhang Xuezhou seemed to be plotting against him.

"So you are also planning to take over the gourd?" Zhang Xuezhou asked.

"Don't think the same as me. I was the first one to fall in love with the gourd this time." Li Shaojun said dissatisfiedly, "I have a good impression of gourds recently!"

"Whoever gets it owns it!" Zhang Xuezhou replied lazily, which made Li Shaojun pace back and forth in the room.

He felt that he needed to understand the gourd case to avoid being intercepted by Zhang Xuezhou.

Li Shaojun knew Zhang Xuezhou too well. Once Zhang Xuezhou got the treasure, he would not care about his or the Empress Dowager's life or death and would definitely not hand over the gourd.

He regretted a little that he had told Zhang Xuezhou about the many things in Anle Palace in too much detail. Even though he tried to keep his description as simple as possible on the medicine gourd, the other party was able to notice it.

"You wait until I get the gourd first," Li Shaojun said, "Let's make a deal first, whoever gets it first gets it, and you are not allowed to plot behind my back!"

"fair play!"

Zhang Xuezhou and Li Shaojun high-fived in response, and Li Shaojun went down satisfied.

"I'll take a rest for two days. I'll go to Anle Palace in two days, and I'll definitely be there before you!"

Li Shaojun said this proudly, which made Zhang Xuezhou start pacing back and forth in the room.

"If you have the guts, then make me despair. Then I can only watch you take the gourd," said Zhang Xuezhou.

"That's right. When the time comes, you can come back and tell us everything about the gourd. That will help put an end to my cousin's little thoughts," Rong Tianding helped.

"You wait!"

Li Shaojun replied happily.

Compared with Zhang Xuezhou, his first-mover advantage is too strong.

Anle Palace is not a place that anyone can go to if they want to. Even high-ranking officials can only pay their respects outside the main palace gate. A minor official like Zhang Xuezhou has no chance of going there at all.

Moreover, the Empress Dowager looked for the gourd to refine medicine with Li Shaojun, not with Zhang Xuezhou. Whether it was verifying the incident first or finding the treasure to use after getting it, Li Shaojun felt that he had an incomparable advantage.

He thought for a long time, but couldn't figure out how Zhang Xuezhou got the gourd that was stolen from the palace.

All in all, he has a 99% chance of winning this round.

If he lost, Li Shaojun felt that he would never have to play with Zhang Xuezhou again, as it was impossible for him to beat him.

"There will definitely be news from Anle Palace in two days," Li Shaojun said proudly, "Master Dao will take a rest for two days, and you guys wait for me to come back in two days!"

Li Shaojun counted on his fingers and felt that it was impossible for Zhang Xuezhou to achieve anything in two days.

Moreover, Zhang Xuezhou would become unconscious in a few days, so it was unlikely that he would do anything wrong.

He probably came out of Anle Palace to inform Zhang Xuezhou, and then Zhang Xuezhou would lie down.

If Anle Palace had kept him a little longer, Li Shaojun felt that Zhang Xuezhou would not have been able to wait for him to come back and show off.

Li Shaojun looked a little proud, but he quickly came back to his senses.

"By the way, if you lie down, the Empress Dowager will come to check on me secretly, and I won't be able to find her. What should I do then?" Li Shaojun said.

"How would I know what to do? Either you sleep like me, or you recite the sutras!"

Zhang Xuezhou replied, which made Li Shaojun feel bad immediately.

With Zhang Xuezhou as competition, he cannot be so casual when Zhang Xuezhou is not around. He needs to maintain the appearance of a Taoist master at all times, lest the Empress Dowager discover the truth and make all his efforts in vain, or even bring endless disasters.

When Li Shaojun thought about the boring life of the elderly that was not suitable for their age and even had to persist for a long time, he felt that his heart was in torment all the time.

He wished Zhang Xuezhou would lie down quickly so as not to ruin his plan to get the gourd, but Li Shaojun also wished Zhang Xuezhou would be by his side all the time so that he wouldn't have to maintain a stressful life in his old age.

This made Li Shaojun dislike Zhang Xuezhou at one moment, but at another moment he couldn't leave him.

This feeling of needing and not needing made him feel terrible. Li Shaojun felt that he had not had a single happy day since he met Zhang Xuezhou.
