After leaving the palace, Li Xuan has one hand tucked into his sleeve, often lapsing into a lost state.
Not until his return to Zhuque Hall does Li Xuan return to normal. By this time it's getting late, nearly time to knock off, but Li Xuan has made up his mind to sleep here tonight.
Li Dalu had already tipped him off, the situation at home is tumultuous, with the possibility of reignited conflict.
As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall; Li Xuan decides it's better to avoid home tonight.
Moreover, they have lots to do next. Yue Qianqian has moved a large number of files from Zhuque House. Some of them are related to lacquer material, which can be used to make Menghuo Oil, so not only are there records of transactions of lacquer at various production sites, but there are also records kept by the businesses that resold it, which can be investigated.
