The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Chapter 436 Disguise
Zhu Qizhen had no idea what Wang Zhen was thinking, but when he saw his face gradually turning pale, he knew that he was frightened.

Zhu Qizhen felt proud and distressed at the same time. He paused and said, "Sir, there are not many people around me. They took advantage of my young age and wanted to snatch the foundation of the country from me. I never thought that you were one of them."

Wang Zhen immediately knelt down, trembling on the ground, and said, "I grew up in a poor family, and was blinded by greed. I couldn't resist the temptation and failed Your Majesty. Please punish me and kill me for my greed."

Zhu Qizhen was surprised to see that he confessed his guilt directly, unlike the previous excuses. Then he felt relieved and reached out to help him up. "It is a great honor to know your mistakes and improve. Sir, please correct them in the future."

Wang Zhen was so moved that he burst into tears and held the emperor's hand tightly: "I thank your majesty for your grace. I swear I will never do it again, or I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

"Why do you have to do this?" Zhu Qizhen hurriedly stopped him from continuing, "Don't swear such a vicious oath. Gods are there to see the world. We should be cautious."

The young emperor had used the Heart-to-Heart Talisman himself, and that was when he believed most in this oath between gods and ghosts.

In the end, Zhu Qizhen went to court holding Wang Zhen's hand. After the conversation, the two became as close as before.

Of course, this is what Zhu Qizhen thought.

Wang Zhen didn't think they had talked it out.

Did he dare to ask the emperor why he sent people to steal his money?

He dared to ask, were Ren Ze and other Jinyiwei supporting the emperor?
Speaking of which, Ren Ze and others are the Jinyiwei and are supposed to obey the emperor. How dare he expect these people to completely obey him just because of some power?

Pan Yun didn't know that entering the palace would not only transfer away the Jinyiwei who were watching Yin's house, put the blame on the emperor, alienate Zhu Qizhen and Wang Zhen, but also alienate the relationship between Wang Zhen and the Southern Pacification Office.

At this moment, she was putting on makeup.

Little by little she became Qu Le.

Of course, there is no problem with the face and shoulders, but the height is not enough, but this is not a big problem.

Pan Yun put on the special boots, which made him look twenty centimeters taller. After putting on the outer robe, Pan Yun turned around and looked at Tao Yanbai and Miaohe.

The two of them exclaimed "Wow" and praised: "Little Master, you really look like Qu Le."

Pan Yun: "Did you see it clearly?"

Miao He nodded vigorously, "I saw it clearly. My third brother and I squatted in the restaurant opposite their teahouse and watched for half an hour. They really look alike, except for their expressions."

Pan Jun recalled Qu Le's face, raised his chin slightly, lowered his eyes, and looked at Miao and Tao Yanbai arrogantly.

The two were stunned, then clapped their hands, "Like, like, that person looks like this."

Pan Jun was satisfied and held out his hand: "Sword!"

Tao Yanbai immediately picked up the sword on the table and presented it to him.

Pan Jun took it and raised his hand, "Box."

Miaohe picked up the box on the table and presented it to him.

Pan Yun held the sword in one hand, hugged the box in the other arm, and went out through the back door with his chin raised.

Miao and Tao Yanbai stood at the back door and watched her go, while Pan Xiaohei followed her, hopping and skipping.

Miao He's eyes couldn't help but fall on the cute Pan Xiao Hei, "Xiao Hei is so cute when he imitates a rabbit."

Tao Yanbai turned around and went back to the house, "You think Xiao Hei is cute even when he poops."

Miaohe also turned around and closed the door with a snap, muttering, "It's very cute."

Pan Yun went to the escort agency two blocks away from the Wulin Alliance’s base.

He generously took two large silver ingots and said arrogantly, "Call out your chief escort."

An escort recognized Qu Le and immediately went to call the chief escort.

The chief escort came soon.

Pan Jun remained seated without moving, and pointed to the chair opposite him, saying, "Captain Fang, please take a seat."

Fang Biaotou: ...

Leader Fang muttered to himself: This is Alliance Leader Lin’s nephew, and this is the only son of the Qu family.

Fang Biaotou pulled his lips open with all his strength, and said with a fake smile: "Young Master Qu suddenly came to visit, I wonder what's the matter?"

Pan Yun pushed the box on the table forward: "There are some letters that your escort agency needs to deliver."

Escort leader Fang was about to stand up to get it, but halfway through he came to his senses and sat back down, looking at the escort standing beside him.

When the escort leader saw him looking at him, he stared back with a confused look on his face.

The chief escort glanced at the box and motioned for him to take it.

The escort's eyes widened even further, still looking confused.

The chief escort died.

Pan Yun: …

She suppressed her laughter, coughed lightly, pushed the box forward again, and said directly to the tall man: "Give the box to your escort leader."

The tall man finally reacted and immediately stepped forward, picked up the box and handed it to Fang Biaotou.

Fang Biaotou was not happy at all. He smiled at Pan Yun and said, "I am sorry to have embarrassed you, Mr. Qu."

Pan Jun nodded slightly.

Biaotou Fang became even more upset.

Because he was facing someone else, Pan Yun did not hide his badness at all, and did not care about the life and death of others. When he saw Fang Biaotou opened the box, he raised his chin and said, "If Fang Biaotou is willing, I can give you a copy of this post." Fang Biaotou was puzzled, "Are you asking the escort agency to post the Wulin Alliance post? You have so many Wulin Alliance members..."

Pan Yun waved his hand to interrupt him, "We in the Wulin League don't do such trivial things. We are all very busy and have a lot of things to do."

Fang Biaotou: ...

Pan Yun squinted at the people and said, "Isn't the escort agency just doing the trivial things that everyone doesn't want to do?"

Fang Biaotou: ...What should I do if I feel a little angry?
But he endured it!
Fang Biaotou nodded stiffly, "Yes, as long as the money is in place, we will take any job."

"Tell me, how much does it cost to deliver these notices on behalf of our Wulin Alliance?" Pan Jun took out a list from his sleeve and held it up with two fingers.

This time, there was no need for the chief escort to exchange glances or give orders to Pan Yun. The tall man walked forward and took the list, then casually handed it to Chief Escort Fang.

Fang Biaotou couldn't help but glare at him.

The tall guy: ...trying to understand the meaning of this look, but really can’t.

So he stared at Fang Biaotou with his big eyes, hoping that he could give him some more hints.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Fang Biaotou was so disgusted that he found an excuse to send him away, "Go pour tea for Young Master Qu."

"Oh." The tall man picked up the teapot, found it was empty, and walked quickly to fetch water.

Fang Biaotou opened the list and frowned after taking a look at it. "The top ten gentry and big businessmen in Ruyang, Shangcai, Suiping, Queshan, and Luoshan counties?"

"Yes, the posts are ready. They will be sent randomly. They are the same no matter which company they are from."

Fang Biaotou continued to read: "What are the famous Taoist temples, temples and monasteries in each county of Runing Prefecture?"

Pan Yun nodded, "Their posts are slightly different, but they are all labeled and the addresses are all given to you. There are nine in total."

Neither she nor her second senior brother knew who the prestigious gentry and businessmen were in the counties of Runing Prefecture, but their Taoist temples, Buddhist temples, etc. could be found registered in the Ministry of Rites.

So the posts to Taoist temples and Buddhist temples are specific and mention names, but those to the gentry and businessmen are not.

For a general post, the escort agency needs to go to the local place to inquire and ask to whom it should be sent.

This also counts as part of the money.

But Qu Le was rich and generous, and he would not be stingy with money. Pan Yun had taken so much money from Wang Zhen, so of course she would not be stingy either. So she generously asked Fang Biaotou to just name the price, as she had no shortage of money.

Although Escort Leader Fang wanted to cheat him by offering a high price, the escort agency was doing business with integrity. Qu Le's request was not difficult, and Runing Prefecture was not far from Beijing.

So he made a frustrated offer: "One county, round trip fare, plus investigation, fifty-eight taels, five counties total two hundred and ninety taels."

Pan Yun took out three silver notes and slapped them on the table, pointing to the forty-two taels of silver on the table and said, "In addition to these two ingots, I want you to deliver a letter to the county magistrates of Xiping, Xincai and Zhengyang counties."

The three counties are also in Runing Prefecture. If they want to go to the five counties, they will inevitably pass through these three counties. If they don’t pass through them, they can just turn around and pass by.

Of course you have to make money that comes easily, but it feels a bit frustrating to make this money.

After all, it was three hundred and forty taels. After deducting the travel expenses and food and lodging, they could make a net profit of three hundred. The message they delivered was not dangerous at all, so Escort Leader Fang decided to make some money.

Isn't it just arrogance?
As long as the other party pays enough, he will endure it!

Especially since Qu Le paid the full amount directly, isn't this an affirmation of his trust in and ability of their escort agency?

Isn't it just that his manners are poor and his words are not nice?

Just because he paid the full amount in advance, he endured it!

Escort leader Fang took the money, made a receipt and gave it to Qu Le.

Pan Jun took it and casually put it into his sleeve after just a glance. Then he stood up with the sword in hand and said, "I'll leave this matter to Fang Biaotou. I hope that everyone on the list who meets the requirements will receive the invitation within seven days at the latest."

Fang Biaotou nodded seriously, "Don't worry, Young Master Qu, I will start recruiting people right away. We will send people out of the capital this afternoon and reach Runing Prefecture in three days."

Pan Jun nodded with satisfaction and left with a proud look on his face.

Fang Biaotou waited until Pan Yun left before taking the box to the study and gathering people.

The tall man also squeezed in, staring at Fang Biaotou with his eyes wide open.

Escort Leader Fang waved his hand at him and said, "We don't need someone with strong martial arts skills to go to Runing Prefecture this time. We need someone who can speak eloquently and has fast feet. You don't want to go."

"Boss, what does the Wulin Alliance want to send you? Why is it so urgent?"

"A call to arms to summon heroes from all over the world to provide disaster relief."

"…You're spending over 300 taels to ask us to deliver such a letter?" The escort felt that Qu Le was crazy. "300 taels is enough to buy a lot of food. Since you need disaster relief, why don't you use the Wulin League? Isn't this a way to save money?"

"We don't understand the thoughts of rich people, and we shouldn't try to understand them," said Fang Biaotou. "We have received the money, so we just do what he asks."

Everyone responded.

Leader Fang selected two teams and divided them into five counties and three incidental counties.

He divided the troops into two groups. One team was responsible for two counties and two incidental counties; the other team was responsible for three counties and one incidental county, and asked them to take the notices and leave.

After leaving the escort agency, Pan Yun let out a breath, looked down at himself, and not finding any flaws, he walked away triumphantly.

Just turn a street and go deep into the alley to wipe off your shoes and makeup, and go home comfortably.

Pan Yun turned the corner, and the three people walking towards him saw him, forced a smile on their faces, and bowed, saying, "Mr. Qu."
