The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

The sound of footsteps was heard, and the two people who were standing and talking in front of the Moon Gate turned their heads at the same time.

Qu Le paused, his heart sank. He didn't dare to look at Pan Yun, so he looked at Xue Shao. When he saw him, he was startled: "It's you?"

Xue Shao clasped his fists and said with a smile, "Mr. Qu."

Qu Le nodded to him, and the atmosphere eased. He then turned to look at Pan Yun: "Pan Yun, did Chen Lan invite you to dinner?"

Pan Yun nodded.

Qu Le looked relieved: "That's good."

Pan Yun asked him, "How many people are going to the Tianshi Mansion?"

Qu Le looked strange: "Except for us, there is no one else."

Pan Jun was stunned for a moment: "Why?"

Qu Le: "It seems that we can't invite them. Several brothers are practicing in their rooms. They don't even go out except for official business assigned to them."

He paused and said, "Chen Lan went to invite someone, and Senior Brother Zhang Weiliang wanted to respond, but he was scolded by Mr. Li as soon as he turned around. He said that he was distracted and punished him to be grounded and practice in the room."

Pan Jun raised an eyebrow: "When Chen Lan invited me, Dean Zhang was here, why didn't he scold me?"

Qu Le opened his eyes and looked at her silently without saying a word.

Pan Jun smiled and waved at him: "Go ahead, we'll go together later."

Qu Le came to Pan Yun to ask about this matter, "Is it really okay for us to go to the banquet?"

Since Li Wenying did not allow Zhang Weiliang to participate, the other academy disciples followed suit and rejected Chen Lan.

Pan Yun: "What's the problem? Mr. Li didn't let Zhang Weiliang go because he knew he was stupid and was afraid that he would be sold and paid for. I don't have that risk. I'm bringing you there, so I'll keep an eye on you and you're not afraid."

Qu Le: "...Why do you only use me as an example? What about Miaozhen and the others?"

"Them?" Pan Jun smiled and said, "Although they are younger than you and simpler than you, it is not easy to deceive them."

Qu Le was puzzled: "Why?"

"Because without desire, one is strong."

Qu Le was very upset, as if he had many desires.

Qu Le snorted and turned to leave. He glanced at Xue Shao, paused slightly, and frowned, "I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."

Xue Shao smiled: "When we were suppressing the bandits last year..."

"No," Qu Le interrupted him with a frown, staring at his face: "I should have seen it somewhere else, but I can't remember it at the moment."

Pan Jun said irritably, "If you can't remember it, it means it's not important. We are all in the martial arts world, so isn't it normal to see it occasionally? Are you going to leave or not?"

Qu Le opened his mouth: "Why are you rushing me to leave?"

"Go change your clothes!" Pan Yun said, "I brought you here, so you should be a student of the academy. Why are you dressed like a dandy? Go change into the academy's student uniform."

Qu Le turned and left, muttering unconvincedly: "Didn't you ask for this outfit? You even dress like a rich lady..."

Of course Pan Yun also had to change clothes.

She changed into a neat Taoist robe.

He was wearing a dark blue fine cotton Taoist robe with arrow-shaped sleeves tied around his wrists, a leather belt around his waist with double copper fish buckles, and the hem just reached his calves. He looked very neatly dressed.

This is one of the uniforms for the students of the academy. It is worn when practicing martial arts in the martial arts arena. It is very suitable for fighting. The dark blue color is stain-resistant and the fine cotton dries quickly. This time, Pan Yun specially prepared an extra set of clothes for going out. He decided to wear this one when he went to kill the pirates.

Miaozhen and the others followed suit and prepared an extra set of such Taoist robes.

Seeing their junior master changing into this outfit, they all followed suit.

When they met at the gate of the villa, Qu Le, who was wearing a royal blue wide-sleeved academy disciple robe, standing in the wind, with an upright posture and a floating look as if he was about to fly away, saw the four people in uniform and remained silent.

Qu Le looked at them sadly.

Pan Yun suppressed her laughter and comforted him: "It's not wrong. It represents the status of a disciple of the academy."

Qu Le: "Why didn't you tell me to wear a martial arts uniform?"

Pan Jun looked regretful: "I thought we would have a tacit understanding, after all, we have been together day and night for several days, but I didn't expect that we still don't have a tacit understanding."

Qu Le was full of resentment, and he was still muttering after he left the door: "Why do we have to attend this banquet? We have to leave in two days, don't we have time to rest?"

Pan Yun: "I'm curious about your martial arts world, so I want to join in the fun."

Qu Le looked at Xue Shao who was beside him and asked, "What about him?"

Pan Jun looked straight ahead and said, "Ask yourself."

Xue Shao smiled at Qu Le, "I am also curious about the martial arts world, so I want to join in the fun."

Qu Le looked incredulous, but no one paid any attention to him.

Pan Yun and Xue Shao looked at each other.

Pan Yun was not feeling well and wanted to go and see what was going on, and at the same time get to know the two young masters of the Chen family who were going to join him in the fight against the Japanese pirates, and find out their intentions.

The reason why Xue Shao went was even simpler. As an inspecting censor, these were all within his scope of investigation.

Several people went to Zuixianlou together. What surprised Pan Yun was that Chen Lan also invited Pu Si, the young master of Ping'an Inn.

Although they had only met twice, Pan Yun recognized the other party at a glance. Of course, the other party also recognized them at a glance.

Pu Si smiled and bowed to Pan Yun: "When I first met Taoist Sanzhu last year, I felt that he was an extraordinary person. Later, he really became famous in Jiangnan. Now that I can meet him this time, he must be famous in the world."

Pan Yun said modestly: "I am still young, far from being as good as you all. Who among you present here is not a famous hero?"

Among those present, at least one of them was famous all over the world, and Qu Le had heard of them all, and he introduced their origins and backgrounds to her in detail.

But this is not necessarily the case for heroes and great men.

Qu Le had his own preferences. "Sun Dacheng of the Beggars' Sect can indeed be called a hero, but those three from the Cao Gang, tsk, how dare they sit at this table? We are not discussing business."

Pan Yun lowered his voice and said, "Your likes and dislikes are too obvious. I think they are very good. Why do you look down on the Cao Gang?"

Qu Le: "The mother of their leader is a Buddhist, and the leader also followed the monks. In the sixth year of Zhengtong, there was a flood in the two lakes. The Taoists from Wudang Mountain wanted to borrow the canal to transport grain, but they were extorted by the canal gang. The two factions fought on the boat and many people died. From then on, the canal gang required all Taoists who boarded the boat to pay double the boat fare. It was not until the eighth year of Zhengtong that the Tianshi Mansion intervened to mediate and the canal gang changed this rule."

Pan Yun immediately said, "It's really not that good."

But when he looked up at the three people from the Cao Gang sitting diagonally opposite him, Pan Yun frowned. They had fierce looks, but their auras were not mixed and were still mainly righteous.

People's words and actions can be faked, but the aura is hard to fake. Pan Jun glanced at Qu Le. Would this boy lie to her?

Qu Le looked at her in bewilderment.

Pan Yun retracted her gaze. Never mind. He didn't look like someone who could deceive her. They would fight the bandits together later, so they would run into each other sooner or later. She could see for herself what kind of person he was. (End of this chapter)
