Cypress Boat Floating

Having once experienced a complete loss of control over her body, Ye Jianqing, who is now in the same situation again, can be said to be familiar with it and at ease. At this moment, she is sitting quietly on the chair, and the dense branches and leaves above her head just block part of the scorching sun. In the open space in front, Lu Ciqiu is practicing martial arts attentively, and the considerate Yuqin is handing her fresh and delicious fruits from time to time for her to enjoy. It is really comfortable and cozy!

After several years of military experience, Lu Ci Qiu couldn't stand his petite figure. He used to think that he looked like a gentleman, but now he felt that there were flaws everywhere. He was full of disgust and wished that he could immediately train himself to be as strong as in his previous life! But how easy is it to achieve this goal? After all, it is not something that can be achieved overnight.

Judging from Lu Ci Qiu's current physical condition, he was already extremely exhausted after just completing the full set of basic training in his previous life. Even walking forward became extremely difficult, and his steps were slow and weak. Finally, Lu Ci Qiu collapsed in the chair next to Ye Jianqing like a puddle of mud. It seemed that all the strength in his body had been drained away. Except for breathing through his nose, he could hardly move any other parts of his body. He was still mumbling, "I'm almost dead tired..."

"This is just the first set." Ye Jianqing said as she swallowed a grape that Yuqin handed over. She looked at Lu Ciqiu, who looked tired, and couldn't help but teasing him.

Lu Ci Qiu responded weakly, muttering to himself, "So what if it's just the first set? I'm already exhausted after just the first set! This little body is so disappointing, I really don't know why it has become so weak. Back then, my body was in great shape and I exercised a lot, but now even the most basic set of exercises is so difficult for me to practice..."

"You've worked hard. Come, have a drink of water and take a break." Ye Jianqing smiled slightly, trying to feel the gradually recovering arm strength. She raised her arm with difficulty, placed it on the table, and gently pushed the teacup.

Seeing this, Lu Ci Qiu glanced at her moving hand and muttered, "Look at you, you're recovering pretty quickly."

Ye Jianqing responded: "Well, it's OK. The recovery speed this time is indeed much faster than last time."

Lu Ci Qiu then asked: "Will it not be possible to fully recover soon?"

Ye Jianqing thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe we have to wait a few more days. Although I feel much better now, my body is still a little weak and I can't use my strength."

Lu Ci Qiu nodded slightly, indicating his agreement. Just two days ago, when Ye Jianqing had just woken up, they had discussed the issue of rebirth in depth. When they carefully reviewed and checked every event they had experienced, they were surprised to find that the death of Ye Honghai, Lu Zhixing's trip to Shu to provide disaster relief, and the death of Concubine Shu, these three things had never changed in any life. So they focused on these three things.

They wanted to see if they could end this endless cycle of rebirth by modifying one of these three events.

"So what should we do next?" Lu Ci Qiu looked at Yuqin next to him and asked carefully. Regarding the matter of rebirth, no one else must know about it, not even a word can be leaked. So, Ye Jianqing had an idea and made up a reason to send Yuqin away.

"When discussing such topics in the future, can you please pay attention to whether there are people around?" Ye Jianqing rolled her eyes at Lu Ciqiu without any hesitation. Due to the comradeship she had established with Lu Ciqiu in her previous life, Ye Jianqing was now more casual and even a little straightforward when communicating with him. She gradually regarded Lu Ciqiu as a good friend rather than a prince, so the original feeling of unfamiliarity had gradually faded a lot.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I know I was wrong!" Lu Ci Qiu apologized sincerely, clasped his hands together, and kept bowing to beg for mercy. Then, he changed the subject and asked what action should be taken next.

"Things have to be solved one by one. In this case, let's start with the death of General Ye Honghai. First, try to see if you can prevent this from happening; if you can't do that, then find a way to stop your second brother from going to Shu to provide disaster relief; if that doesn't work, at least find a way to save your mother's life." Ye Jianqing said lazily.

After hearing this, Lu Ci Qiu scratched his head subconsciously, thinking that these things were indeed a bit tricky. He analyzed, "General Ye was ambushed by the enemy on his way back to Beijing and unfortunately died. So if we want to ensure that General Ye can return to Beijing safely, we may need to ask the emperor for permission to personally escort General Ye back to Beijing. However, considering the close relationship between my second brother and General Ye, the emperor may not agree to our request."

Lu Ciqiu was right. Ye Jianqing couldn't help but frown. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "If we can't go to escort him, can we subtly remind your second brother and suggest that he send his soldiers to escort General Ye back to Beijing?"

Lu Ci Qiu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Hmm... this method might work, so I'll try it first to see how it works. Otherwise, let's say hello to my second brother in advance and remind him to pay more attention to whether General Ye has committed treason. After all, in my previous life, I still remember who was behind the plot against General Ye! I also personally experienced the trial in court at that time. If my second brother can receive the news in advance, I can also tell him who framed General Ye and let him arrest the other party and uphold justice for General Ye."

Ye Jianqing frowned slightly: "But the problem is, this thing hasn't happened yet, how are you going to tell him? We must come up with a foolproof method that won't arouse other people's suspicion, and at the same time, we must ensure that your second brother will pay attention to General Ye's affairs."

"That's true." Lu Ci Qiu couldn't help but sigh helplessly: "Then what should I do!!!"

"We can only take it one step at a time." Ye Jianqing comforted her softly, but in fact, even she herself didn't know what measures to take next.

At this moment, Lu Ci Qiu had an idea: "Hey, speaking of this, is it possible that if we live again, the direction of things will be different?"

Ye Jianqing thought for a moment, then explained the logic of the current development to Lu Ci Qiu in detail: "Based on the current situation, this problem should not occur under normal circumstances. The world is now experiencing the changes brought about by our first rebirth. If we do not intervene in the future, it will continue along the original trajectory - General Ye will unfortunately be ambushed and killed; then we will be forced to enter the military camp; then your second brother will be framed and imprisoned, but although he will be released soon after, he will be depressed all day long, and eventually meet with an accident after going to Shu for disaster relief; and your mother will pass away due to excessive grief.

However, if we take action to change certain events, such as successfully preventing General Ye’s assassination, then the subsequent plot may be completely different. Perhaps we don’t even need to step into the military camp, and it is hard to predict whether your second brother will still be wronged. "

After listening to this, Lu Ci Qiu lowered his head silently and asked softly, "So if we have another chance to be reborn next time, will everything we did this time also have an impact on our future rebirth?"

Ye Jianqing looked at him deeply and said slowly: "If there is really another reincarnation, then we may not be reborn at a specific time. If so, why worry so much? At this moment, what we really need to worry about is this life, not the distant future."

Ye Jianqing's words were very true, like a good medicine to calm the mind, which greatly relieved Lu Ciqiu's inner anxiety. He responded softly, and the gloom on his face just now disappeared in an instant, replaced by a smile as bright as the sun: "Yes, you are right! We should live in the present and do our best to deal with the current situation. Anyway, we can deal with it as soon as possible. Why bother about it. The problem will be solved in the end."
