Chapter 136: Cross-dressing? A Yuan who dropped his horse

~8 min read 1,414 words

"Girl, you're joking!"

Chen Yan shook his head and said playfully, "How could someone who appears in the Pei Estate like this, and sits so close to Suiwan and Miss Du, be a young master?"

At the first glance of entering the pavilion, Chen Yan saw that this woman was cross-dressing.

What kind of person was Pei Suiwan?

What kind of person was Du Shuying?

Could they be existences who would let an ordinary man get close, and sit so close?

You must know that between him, Chen Yan, and the two women, there were three or four body lengths of distance...

"Then what if this young master is the cousin of Suiwan and Shuying?"

A Yuan unfolded the folding fan and shook it lightly, and asked with a smile: "Just based on this inference, isn't it a bit hasty...?"

It cannot be denied that the inference was somewhat reasonable.

But it couldn't cover all special situations, such as cousins with blood ties...

"That's just one aspect..."

Chen Yan was unhurried, smiled indifferently, and opened his mouth to say: "Girl, your outfit is indeed no different from a handsome young master, but..."

Speaking of this, the voice stopped abruptly.

It was just that Chen Yan's gaze became more and more playful...

"But what?" A Yuan's curiosity was aroused, and he asked.

"Girl, you don't have an Adam's apple!"

Chen Yan raised his hand, pointed at A Yuan's neck, and said meaningfully.

After a pause, he continued, "And the body proportions, facial features, posture habits, are all more inclined toward female than male..."

Judging gender by the Adam's apple has a 90% accuracy rate.

That uncertain 10% might be a genetic mutation, where a man doesn't have an Adam's apple.

However, female face shapes are usually round and soft, facial features are relatively small and exquisite, and generally, the waist-to-hip ratio is larger, and the shoulders are relatively narrow.

While male face shapes are generally more square, parts like the brow bone and nose bridge are relatively prominent, and generally, the shoulders are wide and the hips are narrow, and the body lines are relatively tough.

Therefore, Chen Yan could infer so decisively...

"Hahahaha!"

Listening to this well-founded analysis, A Yuan laughed out loud, looked at Chen Yan very unexpectedly, and sighed: "Our Great Zhou Poetry Immortal is indeed worthy of the name!"

"Observation is meticulous, and the gaze is not ordinary poisonous..."

"No wonder you can get the favor of the Grand Chancellor!"

A Yuan finally understood why this Great Zhou Poetry Immortal named Chen Yan could transform from a Heavenly Prison death row prisoner into a Mingjing Si Mirror Master, and could sit firmly in that position; it was absolutely not a coincidence...

Such insight, one has to admire it!

"Princess... no, Princess Your Highness, you flatter me!"

Chen Yan stood up, bowed to A Yuan, and smiled: "Chen is not worthy of such high praise!"

"You... how did you recognize my identity?!"

Upon hearing the four words "Princess Your Highness", Yuwen Yuan's face changed visibly.

It was full of disbelief.

She had never imagined that she would drop her horse so suddenly...

And it was as if everything had been seen through!

"A Yan Brother can so accurately and correctly guess A Yuan's true identity?!"

"How did he do it?!"

Even Pei Suiwan, who was watching from the side, was shocked and surprised in her heart.

Because she knew Yuwen Yuan's true identity, she was even more shocked.

And the biggest difficulty in this was that there was simply not much information...

"Hahahaha!"

Chen Yan laughed heartily and said playfully: "Princess Your Highness, if this subordinate says it was calculated by pinching fingers, do you believe it?"

He wore an expression of whetting the appetite.

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"If you could really calculate so accurately, you would have entered the Qin Tian Jian long ago!"

Yuwen Yuan curled her lips and snorted coldly, saying.

After a pause, she continued, "Tell this Palace, how exactly did you infer it!"

At that moment, Yuwen Yuan's curiosity reached its peak...

If it was said that seeing through cross-dressing had techniques, then what was the reason for directly seeing through her identity?

Don't talk about pinching fingers; if there were really people who could calculate, there wouldn't be natural and man-made disasters...

"Temperament." Chen Yan, hearing this, slowly spat out two words.

"What do you mean?"

Yuwen Yuan closed the folding fan, frowned, didn't understand, and asked suspiciously: "Does this Palace's temperament have any difference?"

As she spoke, she even looked at herself and the two women, darting back and forth.

But she didn't find anything unique.

Chen Yan smiled indifferently, didn't sell it, and said: "It's a kind of noble air that is completely different from Suiwan and Miss Du..."

"It needs to be more rebellious!"

"So, this subordinate judged that Your Highness is a member of the Yuwen Imperial Clan..."

"And only a Princess leaving the palace would need to disguise herself!"

Whether it was Pei Suiwan or Du Shuying, between their gestures, there was the pride of noble ladies.

While Yuwen Yuan, although noble, had a rebellious spirit in her bones; that feeling was something he had seen in the Grand Chancellor...

"This analytical angle is truly unique; not worthy of being the man I have my eyes on..."

Pei Suiwan pursed her red lips, smiled beautifully, and thought to herself.

In the gaze looking at Chen Yan, there was an uncontrollable admiration...

And a determination to win.

This man, she must take him!

"Chen Yan, oh Chen Yan, this Palace understands more and more why my cousin can look at you with favor and rely on you so much..."

"You indeed have extraordinary points!"

Yuwen Yuan nodded repeatedly.

Just this hand of person-identifying technique, one really has to admire it...

Only after contact could she understand her cousin's choice.

"Your Highness flatters me!"

Chen Yan bowed and smiled: "If there were no Grand Chancellor, there would be no room for this subordinate to display..."

Chen Yan didn't dare to be proud at all, because he knew deeply the importance of the platform.

Without the support of the Grand Chancellor, no matter how talented he was, there would be nowhere to display it...

"Then have you guessed this Palace's specific identity?" Yuwen Yuan asked.

"The current Emperor is fifteen, and there are no heirs under his knees yet..."

Chen Yan worded it slightly and said: "And observing the Princess's age, it should be the eldest Princess born of Taizu, Yuwen Yuan!"

Even though Yuwen Yuan had made a disguise, Chen Yan could judge that her age was around twenty-one or twenty-two.

Excluding the current Emperor, it could only be Taizu's daughter...

"Fierce!"

Yuwen Yuan nodded and couldn't help but praise: "Mirror Master Chen, this Palace has remembered you..."

After a pause, she continued, "If you have leisure, you can also come to the Princess Estate to sit more often!"

At this moment, Yuwen Yuan understood why Pei Suiwan was in that state for the arrival of this Zhuque Mirror Master and Great Zhou Poetry Immortal...

Which young girl doesn't have spring thoughts, and who wouldn't be moved when meeting such a talent?

"Definitely." Chen Yan nodded.

"A Yan Brother can conquer the proud A Yuan, truly extraordinary!" Pei Suiwan smiled lightly and thought to herself.

"Almost forgot the main business of coming here..."

Chen Yan slapped his head suddenly, as if he had thought of something, and said: "To thank Suiwan for her help that day, and for her righteous words, I have specially prepared some thin gifts, and I hope Suiwan will accept them!"

As he spoke, he beckoned to Zhu Yi, You Xian, and others outside the pavilion.

"A Yan Brother, you are too polite..."

Pei Suiwan said: "That was all within my power, not worth mentioning!"

The words just fell.

Zhu Yi and others carried the heavy gifts Chen Yan had carefully prepared and displayed them in front of everyone.

Shu brocade, amber bowl, Xuan kiln porcelain box, Snow Mountain ginseng, white tiger skin, silver fox skin, purple sandalwood inlay, jade hairpin, jade hairpin, emerald jade Ruyi, emerald jade exquisite chess piece, gold-inlaid jade step shaker...

All kinds of precious items were complete.

"Mirror Master Lord Chen, these things you sent are all vulgar items..."

Yuwen Yuan scanned those thank-you gifts and, in an extremely playful tone, "picked faults": "And you didn't prepare anything with sincerity?" ===== CHAPTER 137 =====
