We agreed that I would be married off to a short-lived general, but why is my husband so powerful?

Xiang Ying brought in a meal.

"Ling Yuan, eat something first. You haven't eaten all day."

Yue Lingyuan, kneeling beside the coffin, showed no reaction whatsoever.

Ever since his father died in battle, he has remained silent, even when facing challenges from other soldiers in the army camp on the arena.

Xiang Ying was very worried when she saw him like this.

She repeated her words of comfort countless times, but Yue Lingyuan remained silent.

She sighed, put down the food, glanced at Yue Lingyuan, and turned to leave the tent.

She arrived at the medical tent.

After the battle, the medical tent had gained many more wounded soldiers, keeping the military doctors and apprentices extremely busy.

Xiang Ying came to see Wen Rushi.

"Medical Doctor Wen, could you come out for a moment?"

When Wen Rushi heard someone calling her, she subconsciously thought it was a wounded soldier. When she turned around, she was somewhat surprised to see Xiang Ying standing at the door.

It was already dark by then.

Wen Rushi had finished her work, so she wiped her hands and went over.

"What's the matter?"

"Go and try to persuade the general; he hasn't eaten a single grain of rice in the past few days."

Wen Rushi raised an eyebrow in surprise.

With General Yue's death in battle, a large number of wounded soldiers followed. As a military doctor, Wen Rushi had no time to pay attention to anything else.

Every day, the first thing I do when I open my eyes is save lives.

I only have a little free time in the evenings to visit Yue Lingshan.

She's so busy she doesn't even have time to pretend anymore, only hastily applying some medicine to her face and neck every few days.

Therefore, she really didn't know about Yue Lingyuan's situation.

I only heard from some soldiers yesterday that he single-handedly fought all the top-ranked soldiers in the army camp.

Wen Rushi thought that General Yue's death would not affect Yue Lingyuan!

I didn't expect her to relax too soon.

Xiang Ying must have already tried to persuade him, but it didn't work.

Wenru didn't think that his advice would be of any use.

Even Xiang Ying, who grew up with Yue Lingyuan, couldn't persuade him.

She estimated that things were even worse.

However, Wen Rushi did not refuse.

Wen Rushi arrived at General Yue's tent, where Yue Lingyuan was kneeling beside the coffin.

Wen Rushi placed the still-warm food in front of him.

"Xiang Ying said you haven't eaten a single grain of rice today. Eat something first! The people at the border are waiting for you to drive back the barbarians!"

Yue Lingyuan looked up and saw that the person was Wen Rushi, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

After a long silence, his voice was hoarse. "Do you think I can repel those barbarians?"

Wen Rushi nodded. "Of course, you are now an invincible general who has fought all over the entire army." She paused, afraid of putting too much pressure on the person in front of her, and changed the subject, "If you can't even resist the barbarians, then it means that this is the fate of the Great Jin. Don't have too much burden on yourself."

Yue Lingyuan picked up the food in front of him, but didn't touch his chopsticks. He just stared at the bowl in his hand and said, "After we married, on my way back to the border, I had a dream. In the dream, my father died in battle, and soon after, Lingdong and I also died on the battlefield. Not long after, the Tatars broke through Longmen Pass and marched south. I saw the rest of the Yue family..."

He was talking about things that happened after his previous life.

Yue Lingyuan felt extremely guilty. He had relied on his foresight to cut off the Northern Barbarians' food supply in advance, and even punished those merchants who colluded with the enemy. However, he still couldn't save his father or even change the outcome.

He felt very useless.

"What you said was just a dream, not real. You don't need to worry about it." Wen Rushi was somewhat surprised.

He seemed to be talking about something from a previous life.

It turns out that Yue Lingyuan has also been reborn.

No wonder I didn't recognize her before.

Yue Lingyuan opened his mouth, "It wasn't a dream. I felt like it was a prophecy. The experience was so real, like I really went through it all."

The concept of rebirth is essentially about a soul carrying obsessions and memories re-entering a story with similar experiences, giving people the illusion of being reborn.

In reality, every death and every birth is a kind of rebirth.

Therefore, Wen Rushi always distinguished between his previous life and this life.

She sought revenge on Cai Zhixing not only out of personal motives, but also to prevent him from committing evil deeds in the future.

"So what? Did you see what's happening around you right now in your dream?"

Yue Lingyuan was stunned. After thinking for a long time, he realized that so far, it seemed that nothing was exactly the same as what happened in his previous life.

Let's start with his marriage.

In his previous life, he married Miss Wen.

This time it was Wen Rushi who took the place.

Later, when he returned to the border and was hunted down, the details and the nature of his injuries differed considerably.

Later, I heard that Ru Shi came to the army camp as a military doctor, which was different from my previous life.

Because of her excellent medical skills, she saved many soldiers who were about to die from their injuries.

Everything is different now.

And his father's death in battle was different from his previous life, both in time, place, and location.

I didn't realize it until I thought about it, and then I found that there were many differences from my previous life.

Yue Lingyuan was taken aback. "No, everything has changed since we got married."

"That settles it. So, don't take that dream too seriously. Just consider it a reminder from God."

Yue Lingyuan hadn't expected Wen Rushi to say that, but upon reflection, it did make some sense.

Thinking that all of this changed after he got together with Wen Rushi, Yue Lingyuan couldn't help but glance at Wen Rushi, hesitating to speak.

Wen Rushi: "What are you trying to say?"

Yue Lingyuan wiped his face. "Although many things are different from what I dreamed of, the barbarians are still ambitious and will likely march south as I did in my dream... I can't sense your cultivation level, so it must be very high. Would you be willing to lead the troops...?"

"I refuse." Wen Rushi rejected his request before he could finish speaking.

Yue Lingyuan looked at Wen Rushi, a hint of surprise in his eyes. "Why?"

"If what you dreamed about is true, do you really believe it's because the border failed to resist the barbarians?"

Yue Lingyuan lowered his eyes. "I can't control what others do. My Yue family has been guarding the border for generations. I just want to do my best."

Wen Rushi gazed at the coffin before him, her tone calm: "The Great Jin Dynasty has been established for over three hundred years. Now, the dynasty is beset by internal and external troubles, and its century-old foundation is teetering on the brink of collapse."

The court is in turmoil; loyal ministers have retired, factions are rife with infighting, and corruption is rampant. Even without barbarians, signs of internal strife are already present; I fear…”

Yue Lingyuan looked up at Wen Rushi, his gaze firm. "I know what you're saying, but no matter what, I cannot allow the barbarians to march south."

He looked at Wen Rushi, his eyes filled with a hint of pleading.

Wen Rushi shook her head. "At most, I can only help you break the formation. As for fighting, I can't help you."

"Why?" Yue Lingyuan asked, puzzled.

He couldn't understand why, if Wen Rushi could help him break the formation, she couldn't help the people on the border.

Wen Rushi remained silent for a long time, then said, "The nation's destiny lies in the north, not the south; such is the will of Heaven."

She didn't want to get involved in the causes and effects of dynastic changes.

To her, the change of dynasties was an inevitable consequence of the establishment of the dynasty, a cycle of cause and effect, like the sunrise and sunset, and it was not something someone like her should interfere with.
