Broken Bonds

Chapter 88

Yan Feili sat down beside the bed, leaning on a beam in a daze.

He dared not think. He hoped that nausea and vomiting in the early morning these few days were just stomach upsets. But the symptoms of easy fatigue, the gradual sour taste, and the faint heart palpitations all told things that it was not so simple. He hadn’t been to the horse farm for several days and since he began to doubt, he dared not care about his body anymore. Whether it was true, an illusion, or a misunderstanding, in short, he can’t make fun of a life that may already exist. He already lost a child on the battlefield because of carelessness and recklessness. He can’t make the same mistake again! He can’t afford to! 

What should I do? What if it is really…

Yan Feili hadn’t been so confused and flustered for a long time. This incident was sudden and the first thing he thought of was to discuss it with Beitang Ao. But he wanted to be sure first. Also, he was a little scared.

A big hand stroked his abdomen. Yan Feili lowered his head and looked at his stomach. According to his motherhood experience, if it really was… Then soon, the abdominal muscles in the lower abdomen will become loose and then bulge little by little until they can accommodate a baby.

Why did the gods tease him so much? Give him such a distinctive body? Moye, what kind of nation was it? Why was there such a weird physique? 

But despite some resentments, when he thought of Beitang Ri, he felt that this was a gift from the gods.

Yan Feili fell tiredly on the bed. Probably because Yan Feili was under much pressure in his heart as a child that even though he was in love with Beitang Ao, he still had some darkness. He didn’t want to bring this out to discuss with him so early… Let’s wait a while longer.

Recalling the face he saw in the water just now, there were obvious vicissitudes. Can such a body still give birth to another child? Yan Feili touched his stomach. What I said to Beitang Ao that night seemed to be particularly in my ears, and now it might be true.

Beitang Yaohui’s typhoid fever recovered, and Beitang Ao planned to take him to the countryside this time. He was too young to practice martial arts, so he should be taken out for relaxation.

It was just that there were some trivial things in the court recently, which always kept him delayed.

Fortunately, Yu Feiqing was a good helper. He was a military commander, and the emperor ordered him to be in charge of the Imperial Guard. Now that the world was peaceful and the community was stable, apart from leading troops and visiting the guard camp every day, he has nothing to do. He often went to the Yizhengtang with Beitang Ao to help him deal with some matters when he was down. 

Beitang Ao had been with him for more than a year and became a bit accustomed to it. Sometimes he was treated as a servant, but Yu Feiqing was also happy. He did things steadily, neatly, and had some means. The last time Beitang Ao refused his request, it was for the sake of saying no, otherwise, such a talent willingly stays by his side, no one was better.

On this day of work in the Council Chamber before noon, Yu Feiqing stretched out and said, “Wang, how did you do so many things before by yourself?”

“What’s this. It’s just a trivial matter.”

“Trivial?” Yu Feiqing’s eyes widened. There were 16 volumes of 120,000-character documents as well as the deliberations submitted by the six subordinates, three divisions, and six departments that were stacked two feet high every day. 

“Wang, you are a rare human. Feiqing learned a lot from you. Things ended early today. The pigeon of Zuiyueju in the south of the city is very famous. I invite you to try it.”

Yu Feiqing came from a wealthy family and was generous, allowing him to very easily approach people. Although he admired the pride of Beitang Ao, he was never his real subordinate after all. He had never seen Beitang Ao’s side of the world, so he was extraordinarily bold and sometimes a little presumptuous.

Beitang Ao didn’t like to socialize. He wanted to refuse but raised his head and saw the look of expectation in Yu Feiqing’s eyes. The black and bright eyes were two-pointed, and his heart softened. He remembered that Yu Feiqing had helped a lot these days, and he had rejected his personal military commander’s request, which was considered to be disappointing. If he didn’t even give Yu Feiqing this little face, it would be unreasonable. He pondered for a while and said, “Okay.”

Yu Feiqing was overjoyed and his eyes lit up. 

Over the years, Beitang Ao had gone through many things. People were no longer as alienated or indifferent as they were in the past. Their arrogance and domineering gradually became introverted to their hearts. He also became a father and his temper had become a little warm.

After the two of them finished their work, Beitang Ao went to his warm pavilion in the palace, took off his court clothes, changed into a crescent-colored leisure shirt, wore a jade belt around his waist, and walked out with a folding fan in his hand. He was a beautiful young man, and nowhere was he like a Wang with power in his hands.

The two rode their horses along Suzaku Avenue to Nancheng. They lost the hearts of many girls along the way. A heroic man, a handsome man, and a likable age, he was a young gallant.

Yu Feiqing secretly smacked his tongue. Xindao said that he came out alone on weekdays but he had not received much attention. When he walked with the people around him, he seemed to be whirled by a gust of wind and was also lifted. 

Beitang Ao turned a blind eye to these.

When he came to the restaurant where Yu Feiqing was a frequent visitor, the boss greeted them with a smile.

“General Yu, you haven’t been here for some days. Do you still want your old seat?”

“Boss Yang, I brought a distinguished guest today and want a nice table next to the window.” 

“This is…” Boss Yang didn’t know Beitang Ao but when he looked up and saw Beitang Ao’s manners, he was as stunned as people were. Beitang Ao glanced at him coldly, and the sharp light immediately awakened his mind.

Yu Feiqing smiled and said, “Boss Yang has no eyesight. The dignified prince is standing in front of you, and you can’t recognize him.”

Since the Ming Dynasty, the people who have been directly named Wang were only the family members of Beitang. The other Wang are just false names.

Boss Yang’s eyes widened, looking at Beitang Ao from a different place. Although he had already heard of how handsome this generation of Beitang Wang was, people were not often in Beijing to meet with him. He stopped talking nonsense, invited them to the second floor, found the best elegant table next to a window, and let them sit down.
