AFDPIRAB Chapter30

Yan Muning was really about to cry out of anger. At this moment, he was sitting on the couch with red eyes, staring at a corner of the window in a daze.

 

God knows what he felt when he heard the big beauty’s voice just now. He even thought that he was imagining it because he missed him too much.

 

That cold voice was too familiar. The little prince didn’t have time to think about it and rushed to the door, anxious to confirm whether it was him.

 

The moment he opened the door, he was surprised and delighted to see that the person who was about to turn around and leave was the one he had been thinking about and blaming.

 

As a result!

 

This heartless scumbag! The first thing he asked him was, Whose?

 

Whose can it be?

 

Say, whose is it? Am I such a casual person?

 

The more the little prince thought about it, the angrier he became. He felt as if there was a surge of anger surging in his chest and was about to explode.

 

Now he feels that the kick he gave just now was too light, and he wishes he could rush out and kick him twice more.

 

.

 

Outside the door, a group of people stood in the yard in a daze.

 

Chen Mo knew that the two had done those intimate things, Ah Xiao and Lao Qi knew that their boss had a beauty hidden in his golden house and was looking for him all over the world, and Xiao Shiyi knew that his master was pregnant with a baby…

 

The rest of the people took it seriously and were just confused.

 

Yun Jiangli was no less angry than the little prince at this moment. Compared to the fact that Prince An concealed his identity, he was even angrier because the youth who kept saying that he wanted to marry him actually… actually had someone else!

 

And he even carried a baby for someone else!

 

Yun Jiangli was so jealous that he was almost going crazy.

 

Perhaps seeing Yun Jiangli’s frightening expression, Old Steward Zhou hesitated for a long time before speaking cautiously: “Then, then Young Hall Master Yun, why don’t you move to the front hall first and wait…”

 

Steward Zhou had just said half of his words when he heard the door behind him slam again.

 

The old steward stroked his chest with a sorrowful look on his face. Oh my God, he is already this old, he really can’t stand being scared like this ah!

 

Yan Muning was sulking in the room when he suddenly heard the old steward’s voice. The four words “Young Hall Master Yun” came out clearly. The little prince then realized why he was surprised before he got angry—

 

His big beauty turned out to be the Young Hall Master of Renji Tang!

 

The little prince stood at the door with a domineering look on his face, pointing at Yun Jiangli and ordering Chen Mo and Old Steward Zhou, “Kick this man out! From now on, no one is allowed to let this man enter Prince An’s mansion again!”

 

“Your Highness ah, is this, is this…” Old Steward Zhou was trying to persuade him again, but when he saw Chen Mo shaking his head slightly at him, he stopped talking.

 

Unexpectedly, Yun Jiangli was even angrier than Yan Muning. He took a step forward and stared at the little prince’s round eyes with anger hidden in his phoenix eyes: “Why?”

 

Yan Muning glared back, not wanting to be outdone: “What why?! This is this king’s mansion, you have no right to ask!”

 

Yun Jiangli’s voice was filled with a barely perceptible sourness: “Why did you leave so suddenly?”

 

After saying that, he glanced at Yan Muning’s belly and asked, “Is it because of him? Who is it?”

 

Shiyi, who was closest to the two, saw that his little prince’s face was getting more and more upset, so he hurried forward to stand between the two and said, “Excuse me, Young Hall Master, my Highness is not feeling well and needs to rest.”

 

Yun Jiangli looked past Shiyi, stared deeply at Yan Muning, then turned around and strode away.

 

.

 

In the warm pavilion, the little prince had been slamming the table and cursing for almost an incense stick of time already—

 

“You old bastard, ah! You actually kept it a secret from me for so long…”

 

“It’s fine that you lied to me in bed, but I didn’t expect you to lie to me outside the bed too?”

 

“Shiyi, tell me! Is he a pure bastard? He actually has the nerve to ask me, whose?”

 

“Whose could it be! A dog’s, a bastard’s…”

 

……

 

“Well, Your Highness, come and drink some water before you curse. Let’s not get ourselves involved in the curse.” Xiao Shiyi patted him on the back and handed him water.

 

Xiao Jiu squatted by the wall and poked at it for a long time.

 

After he swore to Shiyi that he would not tell lies, he finally knew that his master might have a baby. He was silently digesting the news and venting his anger against the wall to prevent himself from rushing to beat up that damn young hall master.

 

His little master is so nice, how could anyone be willing to bully him!

 

“Shiyi, this person is not allowed to enter my mansion from now on. Go and tell them.”

 

Yan Muning was tired from cursing, so he sniffed aggrievedly and leaned lazily against the back of his chair.

 

“But, Your Highness, do you really not want him to see you? No matter what, the medical skills of the Young Hall Master of Renji Tang must be unmatched.”

 

Shiyi calmly advised, “It’s not worth it to risk your own body, don’t you think?”

 

“See him my ass. Didn’t you hear what he asked… It should, it should be correct…” The little prince’s voice became lower and lower as he spoke, and he raised his hand to poke his soft belly.

 

He seems to have slowly accepted the fact that there is a little life in his belly recently, although he doesn’t want others to know for the sake of his own face.

 

But he was not against the existence of this little thing at all. Instead, he had some vague expectations.

 

Xiao Jiu, who had been squatting in the corner, suddenly turned around and said, “Since it can’t be wrong, he should be allowed to come ah! Isn’t he another father… Mmmm!”

 

Shiyi rushed over quickly, covered the man’s mouth and neck, and dragged him out.

 

Dare you mention another father?

 

Yan Muning thought angrily, When I go get my short blade, I’ll put it across your neck next time we meet!

 

.

 

On the other hand, after Yun Jiang left Prince An’s Mansion, he went straight back to the Yun Mansion and locked himself in the study, not going out for the whole day.

 

Three figures were squatting in front of the study door.

 

“Who would have thought that the innocent and adorable Xiao Qi is actually His Highness Prince An…” Ah Xiao looked up at the sky.

 

He missed the experience of beating up the dog official with His Highness Prince An.

 

“I can’t believe it. Is our boss really that bold? I thought he had a little beauty hidden in his golden house, but he ended up having a big one, a prince?”

 

Lao Qi thought of the first time he met Prince An in Jinzhou and was amazed.

 

Because of some previous matters, Du Zhong was unable to go to Jinzhou with Yun Jiangli. Today, he once again missed the opportunity to see the beauty they talked about with his own eyes and felt that he had fallen behind in enjoying the show.

 

He could only dryly follow up with a boast: “Boss has a really good eye. He was an iceberg for 23 years. I almost thought there was something wrong with him. I didn’t expect that he would open up and fall in love with Xiao Wangye.”

 

……

 

Yun Jiangli sat in front of the desk in the study room, motionless, holding the short blade in his hand with a serious look in his eyes.

 

Reason told him that he should be happy because he finally saw the youth he had been looking for for a long time, and he was fine as well.

 

But this little thing is actually Prince An?

 

Come to think of it, it does make sense… He is indeed the seventh child in the family.

 

He had thought of countless possible backgrounds for the youth, but he had never expected this background to be so ridiculously strong…

 

Carefully recalling the experience of meeting the youth, Yun Jiangli felt vaguely worried.

 

Who has the courage and ability to assassinate a prince over and over again? And after multiple failed assassination attempts, they also attempted to kidnap him?

 

He now doesn’t even dare to think about what the youth would be like now if he hadn’t met him by chance that night.

 

As Yun Jiangli thought about it, he suddenly curled the corners of his lips in mocking—

 

What is he worrying about?

 

His Highness Prince An will always have someone to protect him.

 

Moreover, it is not just protection.

 

Yun Jiangli gripped the short blade tightly, his fingers trembling slightly.

 

He was convinced that he would not make a mistake, and judging by the youth’s reaction… he must have known that he was pregnant.

 

Yun Jiangli’s eyes became increasingly cold, and a terrifying chill emanated from his entire body.

 

Why should he give up the little youth he wanted to spoil so much and had been searching for for so long?

 

……

 

Before Yun Jiangli could let himself out of the study, someone from the palace came with the emperor’s oral order, summoning the Young Hall Master of Renji Tang to come to the palace to meet him.

 

What happened in Prince An’s mansion today is impossible for outsiders to know.

 

However, Yun Jiangli had just left the mansion not long ago. After thinking it over for a long time, Chen Mo finally felt that he should report it to Prince Cheng.

 

When Prince Cheng heard that Young Hall Master Yun was actually the person his youngest brother had been thinking about, he was shocked beyond words.

 

Although it was unknown what misunderstanding had occurred between the two that caused Prince An to drive the man out of the palace as soon as he met him, but this man was Yan Muning’s savior anyway, and he should be treated with courtesy.

 

Before Yan Muning returned to the capital, the emperor had told him that anyone who rescued Prince An would be rewarded. Since he was his younger brother’s sweetheart, how could he, as an elder brother, not lend a hand?

 

.

 

Yun Jiangli entered the palace and followed the eunuch who led the way to Xilan Pavilion. The eunuch reminded him that in addition to the emperor, Prince Cheng was also in the pavilion.

 

He thought about it, these two should be the second and the fifth brothers that Xiao Qi always mentioned.

 

He walked into the pavilion at a leisurely pace, knelt down, and bowed to the young emperor and Prince Cheng according to etiquette. After receiving the emperor’s permission, he thanked him, stood up, lowered his eyes, and stood quietly in the pavilion.

 

The emperor narrowed his eyes and carefully looked at Young Hall Master Yun and secretly sighed in his heart: Well, he has such a beautiful appearance and demeanor and won the heart of the little bastard in our family. It can be said that Lao Qi has good vision.

 

“Young Hall Master Yun, you have worked hard on this trip.” The emperor said calmly.

 

Prince Cheng stood aside and said nothing, secretly observing his future prospective sibling.

 

“This is the minister’s duty.” Yun Jiangli answered politely without being humble or arrogant.

 

The emperor’s eyes were filled with praise: “Zhen heard that Yun Qing[mfn]Qing is the term used by the emperor to his subject.[/mfn] has arrived at Prince An’s mansion today. Zhen summoned you here to ask about Prince An’s health.”

 

Originally, Prince Cheng had already told the Emperor that these two people were not diagnosed with the illness at Prince An’s mansion today, and it was their own Lao Qi who kicked them out of the mansion, which seemed to be a cause of trouble.

 

The two brothers wanted to find out Yun Jiangli’s intentions and see how they could bring them together.

 

“Regarding Prince An’s health…” Yun Jiangli paused and looked up at the eunuchs standing in the room.

 

The emperor immediately understood and raised his hand: “You all retreat first.”

 

Seeing that the eunuchs had retreated to the outside, Yun Jiangli spoke again: “His Highness Prince An is already pregnant, but it is still early, it seems that it is not even a month yet, and the pulse is still weak.”

 

As soon as he finished speaking, the Emperor and Prince Cheng stood up and spoke in unison.

 

“What did you say?”

 

Yun Jiangli was about to repeat himself when the emperor suddenly raised his hand to stop him: “Don’t say anything yet. Let Zhen be quiet.”

 

Xilan Pavilion was silent for a long time.

 

“Are you absolutely sure?” The emperor still couldn’t believe it.

 

Although he knew that a man could get pregnant, but he never expected that his younger brother would be the one with that special physique, and he never expected… that his younger brother, with his temper, would be willing to be the one to bear the consequences?

 

Yun Jiangli said firmly, “The minister confirms that His Highness Prince An is pregnant.”

 

The hands hidden under the wide sleeves had already clenched into fists. His youth was pregnant with someone else’s child!

 

Prince Cheng seemed a little confused: “Young Hall Master just said… less than a month? Are you sure?”

 

It should be known that it has been almost two months since Chen Mo met Yan Muning in Jinzhou. How could it be less than a month?

 

After hearing what Prince Cheng said, the emperor also reacted.

 

Yun Jiangli’s tone did not fluctuate: “The pulse is still shallow, most likely it is correct.”

 

That’s why he was angry. It wasn’t long since the little thing ran away from him, and now he’s starting to do things with some unknown jerk again!

 

He kept telling him that he will be on top!

 

“Then how is Prince An’s health?” The emperor temporarily suppressed his doubts.

 

“He… His Highness Prince An was seriously injured not long ago, so he should take good care of himself. Pregnancy is dangerous, especially for men.”

 

Yun Jiangli’s tone was filled with heartache that he himself did not realize: “Fortunately, His Highness is young and has a good foundation. Your Majesty does not need to worry too much.”

 

The emperor exchanged a few polite words with Yun Jiangli and then let him leave first.

 

As soon as Yun Jiangli left Xilan Pavilion, the emperor immediately pulled Prince Cheng towards the back hall and said, “Hurry, hurry, hurry, and follow Zhen to change clothes. Zhen wants to go to Prince An’s mansion in person.”

 

.

 

After a long time, as it was getting dark, a carriage stopped quietly in front of Prince An’s mansion.

 

Yan Muning was lying in the warm pavilion, teasing the white sparrow. He didn’t eat much for dinner, and his stomach was churning badly. He couldn’t muster any energy at the moment.

 

Hearing the sound of the door opening, he thought it was Xiao Jiu coming in. He didn’t even raise his head and continued to lie on the cushion.

 

“Little bastard, can’t you even take a look when Zhen comes?”

 

Yan Muning was startled. Why was his second brother here?

 

He quickly climbed down from the couch and saluted politely: “Second Brother, Fifth Brother.”

 

“No, Second Brother, if you have something to say, you can just summon me to the palace. Why did you come to my mansion? Did you bring enough guards?” Yan Muning frowned, feeling a little worried.

 

The emperor sneered, “Sit down. Why are you still worrying about others?”

 

The Emperor and Prince Cheng sat on the warm couch without any hesitation. The Emperor raised his hand and poked Yan Muning’s forehead vigorously: “You! If Zhen still didn’t come to see you, are you not going to tell Zhen that he has a new nephew?”

 

Yan Muning was stunned and immediately pouted and said unhappily, “What are you talking about?”

 

“Say it, what’s going on!” the emperor said seriously.

 

The little prince saw that he was in a dead end and knew that he could not fool them anymore, so he hung his head and stammered as he told the whole story.

 

But for some reason, he deliberately omitted the reason why he had quarreled with Yun Jiangli.

 

After hearing his words, the emperor looked at his youngest brother with a speechless look, and after a long while he uttered, “Zhen never thought that one day Zhen would have to prepare a wedding dowry for you…”

 

The little prince: “!!”

 

“Pfft—” Prince Cheng couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

 

Yan Muning: “Fifth Brother! I’m angry!”

 

“Why are you so fierce towards me? Your second brother was the one saying that, if you have the guts, go and yell at him.” Prince Cheng raised his hand and rubbed Yan Muning’s head: “Be good, and your fifth brother will also give you a dowry.”

 

The little prince was completely furious: “What do you mean by dowry? Prepare the betrothal gifts for me, the betrothal gifts!”

 

After teasing Yan Muning for a while, the emperor finally became serious: “Seventh Brother, what do you think?”

 

Yan Muning was silent.

 

How can he think about it? His mind is in a mess now.

 

The little prince never expected to meet Yun Jiangli in this way today.

 

He never expected that the big beauty was the Young Hall Master of Renji Tang. He could not keep his identity, nor could he hide the baby’s affairs…

 

These are not the key points. The most important thing is the other father of this kid! The ultimate scumbag, he actually doesn’t recognize his kid!

 

“What else can I consider? Of course, I should take good care of him ah.” Yan Muning responded softly, raising his hand to touch his belly.

 

The clothes were too big, so other people couldn’t see anything, but he could feel that this little life was connected to him by blood.

 

The Emperor and Prince Cheng looked at each other and said gently, “Then take good care of him. Don’t worry about anything. No matter how big the problem is, Second Brother will be there for you.”

 

“There is only Physician Zhang in your mansion. Zhen is worried, so Zhen will send another physician with superb medical skills to live in your mansion to take care of you.” The emperor had already figured it out in his mind and began to fool his brother.

 

The little prince just felt that his brother really loved him, so he nodded obediently.

 

Little did he realize that his two elder brothers were thinking about how to sell out their younger brother.

 

“Second Brother, Fifth Brother…” The little prince suddenly remembered something: “I don’t want… too many people to know about this.”

 

“That goes without saying. I will let Chen Mo pay more attention to the people in your mansion. Except for your close ones, the rest of the people don’t need to know the inside story. Just tell them that you will heal your previous injuries.” Prince Cheng had already agreed on this with the emperor on the way here.

 

“Second Brother will go back now. If you… need anything in your mansion or want to eat something, just send someone to tell Zhen.” The emperor stood up. After all, he was leaving the palace incognito and could not stay for long.

 

Yan Muning reluctantly sent his two brothers out of the mansion.

 

.

 

On the carriage back to the palace, Prince Cheng smiled and asked in a low voice, “Imperial Brother, are you planning to send Young Hall Master Yun to Lao Qi’s residence?”

 

The emperor glanced at him and said, “Tsk, don’t you think so too?”

 

Prince Cheng’s smile deepened: “Then done for, Lao Qi will scold us like hell ah.”

 

The emperor sighed slightly and said, “You can see that these two have feelings for each other, but Zhen doesn’t know what’s going on. Outsiders cannot interfere in matters of love, not even Zhen.”

 

“The one who tied the bell must untie it. The relationship between the two of them still needs to be figured out by the two of them themselves. What Zhen can do is to bring the two of them together. It’s just right to find someone to help Zhen temper the little bastard.”

 

Prince Cheng tilted his head and said, “Then shall Imperial Brother and I go back and start preparing our wedding dowries?”

 

.

 

The next morning, the eunuchs who announced the decree rushed to Prince An’s mansion and the Yun’s Mansion respectively.

 

“The Holy Emperor’s oral instructions: Zhen is concerned about Prince An’s recent recovery from his injuries, and Zhen has now specially sent a divine physician to the palace to take care of Prince An’s health. Zhen hopes you will treat the physician well and take good care of him to ease Zhen’s concerns.”

 

“The Emperor, by the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Yun Jiangli, the Young Hall Master of Renji Tang, is a man of superb medical skills and has brought people back to health. Zhen hereby orders Yun Jiangli to immediately enter Prince An’s mansion to nurse him. Zhen hopes that you will perform your duties conscientiously and take care of Prince An wholeheartedly. By this means.”

 

Yan Muning and Yun Jiangli received the emperor’s order at the same time.

 

The little prince was puzzled. Why was it worth sending someone to deliver another oral message for something that had been discussed last night?

 

An hour later, when the little prince looked at the “divine physician” who had been ordered to enter the palace, he almost bit his teeth off.

 

He took a deep breath. Fine, he knew why his second brother had them come to him early in the morning to convey his instructions and asked him to treat the doctor well. He was afraid that he would not let the person into the mansion ah!

 

Yan Muning stared at Yun Jiangli and began to doubt whether he was the emperor’s biological brother or not.

 

How could these two brothers collude with the scumbag to deceive their own younger brother?

 

Yun Jiangli entered the mansion, walked to Prince An, and bowed respectfully: “I am here by order to nurse Your Highness.”

 

Having said that, he coldly glanced at Yan Muming’s belly, took a step closer, gritted his teeth, and suppressed his jealousy, saying, “The minister thinks that his main responsibility this time is to help Your Highness keep the baby safe and take good care of you and your son.”

 

The little prince: “……”

 

You damn, Yan Muning swallowed back the curse in his heart.

 

Showing a mouthful of white teeth, he replied with a fake smile, “Alright, then Divine Physician, please take good care of this king’s child, child, ah!”

 

The author has something to say:

Ding, the cohabitation instance is about to start!

Q: Did Yun Jiangli succeed in catching up with his wife today?

A: Of course not. Am I that easy to pursue? (Answer from Xiao Wangye.)

 

T/N: Where did YJL even get the idea of YMN cheating on him from? :3
