Yuan Wei's Quick Travel

Chapter 446: Cannon Fodder in Stepmother's Story 18

Yuan Xinyan's gaze fell on Yuan Wei, who looked perfectly at home with her. The scene when he first saw Yuan Wei dressed exactly like Yuan Xinkai emerged in his mind.

At that time, his eyes widened and his jaw almost dropped in shock. He looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Yuan Xinyan had never lost his composure like this in his twenty years of life.

Thinking of this, Yuan Xinyan's mouth twitched uncontrollably, and his eyes quickly moved away from Yuan Wei, as if his head would explode if he continued looking.

Yuan Xinkai was tricked by Yuan Wei into going to Qingning Temple outside the capital to pray for blessings.

The Qingning Temple is an ancient little temple located in a quiet mountain forest.

The most important thing is that it is remote but has a certain reputation, and few people usually go there.

When Yuan Wei, wearing Yuan Xinkai's clothes, walked out of the room in a swagger, Yuan Xinyan glanced at her from a distance and thought that Yuan Xinkai had returned in a hurry again.

He rubbed his eyes and confirmed again and again, until Yuan Wei's crisp voice reached his ears, and his originally stable worldview was slightly impacted.

Yuan Xinyan circled around Yuan Wei again and again, looking her up and down carefully, not missing any details.

He touched Yuan Wei's hat and pulled at the corner of her clothes, trying to find even the slightest flaw.

However, he searched until his eyes were almost dizzy, but he couldn't find anything wrong.

Yuan Wei’s appearance is so similar to Yuan Xinkai’s, as if she was carved out of his mold.

Even people who are very close to Yuan Xinkai may not be able to recognize Yuan Wei at first glance.

Unless they are the servants who serve Yuan Xinkai personally all day long and know every little movement and habit of Yuan Xinkai, it is really impossible to tell whether this is the real person.

Although Yuan Wei's appearance was realistic, Yuan Xinyan still didn't want Yuan Wei to take any risks.

Although nothing serious will happen, it will be troublesome if someone finds out.

Yuan Wei is a shining pearl in the Duke Zhenguo's Mansion and cannot tolerate any flaws.

If this matter gets out, will the reputation of the girl from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion be ruined?

What should Yuan Wei do then?

What’s the point of looking similar?

A different voice would be a fatal flaw.

It's impossible for Yuan Wei to remain silent like a mute. As soon as she opens her mouth, won't the truth be revealed immediately?

Isn't this all in vain?

Just when Yuan Xinyan was full of worries and his head was a mess, Yuan Wei suddenly cleared her throat and spoke to him in the same voice as Yuan Xinkai.

Every tone and intonation of that voice was exactly the same as Yuan Xinkai's, as if Yuan Xinkai himself was speaking.

After hearing this, Yuan Xinyan's eyes widened again and his mouth opened so wide that an egg could fit in.

Before he could recover from his shock, Yuan Wei imitated Yuan Xinkai's behavior, taking big strides and pacing back and forth in the courtyard. Her posture and expression were exactly like Yuan Xinkai's.

Yuan Wei glanced at Yuan Xinyan, then walked towards Feng's yard. She wanted to pay her respects to Feng.

After walking around the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, no one noticed anything wrong. Even Feng didn't find anything wrong. Yuan Xinkai was really convinced.

Naturally, this matter could not be hidden from Yuan Jingsi.

After all, their actions this time were like walking on a tightrope. Any slight mistake would implicate the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and Yuan Jingsi was the safety rope that supported them from below.

Yuan Xinyan was relieved to see that his father not only did not stop their "nonsense", but instead strongly supported them secretly.

Yuan Wei has always had experience in dressing up as a man. Every time she puts on men's clothes, she seems like a different person, more casual and unruly.

It had been a long time since she last dressed as a man, and Yuan Wei had forgotten other people's reactions to her men's clothing. Now, looking at Yuan Xinyan's surprised expression, the fire of mischief in her heart was instantly ignited, and she couldn't help but want to tease him.

Yuan Xinkai is a person with an eccentric personality. The scene where Yuan Wei teases Yuan Xinyan is completely in line with his personality traits.

Yuan Xinkai is still young after all, and people of his age rarely come to participate in the royal hunt.

So none of Yuan Xinkai's friends came to look for them.

Royal Hunting is not a simple recreational activity, but a game full of competition and challenges.

Generally speaking, those who come to participate are people of Yuan Xinyan's age, and most of them are children of nobles and some newly promoted young military generals.

They are young and full of energy, with dreams and ambitions, and want to show their skills in this game.

There are many types of competitions, including team competitions and individual competitions.

For some family members, this competition is a great opportunity for them to come to the fore.

If you want to be appreciated by a noble person, you must stand out in the competition and prove yourself with your strength.

Once you achieve excellent results in the competition, you may be favored by a noble person and change the fate of yourself and your family.

Therefore, they are all giving their all and preparing carefully for this game.

People of Yuan Xinkai's age simply do not have enough strength and experience to compete with these experienced people.

Moreover, the number of places for hunting is very limited, and the royal family will not let these young people who are just starting out waste these places in the name of fun.

Yuan Xinyan is a notoriously weak scholar.

In the eyes of those noble sons, Yuan Xinyan, a weak scholar who only knew how to write poetry all day long, was a person from a completely different world from them, and they had no intention of taking the initiative to greet or make friends with him.

As for those scholars and literati, although they admire knowledge and talent, Yuan Xinyan comes from a noble family, and the family's glory and wealth may become a barrier in their eyes.

They were worried that if they made friends with such a young man from aristocratic family, they would be seen as trying to curry favor with the powerful, so they were unwilling to take the initiative to interact with him.

What's more, this royal hunting event is an occasion for nobles to display their military prowess and elegance, and few literati would participate.

Because of this, on the way to the hunting ground, Yuan Xinyan and Yuan Wei were always surrounded by no one and no one came to disturb them.

Yuan Wei was quite happy about this. She didn't like those hypocritical social occasions, and this quiet atmosphere was just what she wanted.

However, although Yuan Xinyan seems weak on weekdays, he actually has his own ambitions and ideals in his heart. I wonder if he will feel bad being isolated like this?

Sensing Yuan Wei's worry, Yuan Xinyan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said softly: "My weak image is not something that has only appeared now."
