Before the morning run, everyone drank a bowl of medicinal soup.
After the warm medicinal food entered my mouth, the medicinal power transformed into a warm current, dispelling the chill from my body.
After they finished the medicinal diet, Ye Jingchen taught them a set of warm-up exercises.
Ye Jingchen taught them to move around several times, from the head to the shoulders and neck, then to the chest, waist and abdomen, knees, legs, wrists and ankles, every important part and joint of the body.
The movements Ye Jingchen taught them were strange and awkward to perform.
But for Ye Jingchen, the little brats shaking their heads and frantically trying to imitate these actions were just too cute. He wished he could grab each and every one of them!
Xie Chang'an quickly realized the magic of these simple movements.
The head, neck and shoulders, as well as the waist, abdomen, and joints of the hands and feet are the most vulnerable areas for martial arts practitioners to get injured. If, as Ye Jingchen teaches, one warms up their muscles and bones before strenuous exercise, they can minimize the risk of injury during training.
After realizing this, he studied very hard, carefully observing Ye Jingchen's every move, while pondering in his mind whether there were any ways to improve.
This set of movements is not only suitable for them, but if it were popularized in the military, it would be especially beneficial for the soldiers.
In fact, Xie Chang'an would also warm up his muscles and bones before each training session, but this was an experience he gained through his own illnesses. Moreover, his way of warming up his muscles and bones was too casual, unlike Ye Jingchen's demonstration, where every movement was meaningful and comprehensive.
Ye Jingchen watched them repeat the warm-up exercises three times. Heaven knows how much self-control he used to refrain from reaching out his evil claws to the little brats.
After warming up, the morning run began.
Since today is the first day, Ye Jingchen is leading the team at the front.
In his previous life, he had a habit of jogging when he was in school, but after he started taking advantage of his younger brother, he became rather lazy. After transmigrating into the book, he was given a different body, which belonged to a pampered little brat, so it took him some time to adapt.
The reason he's leading everyone in the run is because his body has adapted to it quite well, ensuring that each step maintains a similar distance and frequency.
Ye Jinghe followed closely behind his brother, carefully observing his running posture.
He took the same big steps as his brother, and soon he began to enjoy it, following in his brother's footsteps and having a great time.
"Royal brother, are you a little turtle? Why are you running so slowly? Can you hurry up?" Ye Jingshu urged from behind.
"Sister, a person's energy is limited. Running too fast will make you tired quickly," Ye Jingchen said.
"Tired? I don't think so!" Ye Jingshu didn't take Ye Jingchen's words seriously.
Running is nothing, how could it possibly be tiring?
"Maybe it's because you guys are short and have short legs. I'm different from you. I have long legs, so I'll run ahead!" Ye Jingshu said as she ran past Ye Jingchen and rushed to the front.
As she passed Ye Jinghe, she couldn't resist patting him on the head.
She was not only cheeky with her hands, but also with her mouth. "Little dwarf, with your short legs, you think you can compete with me? You're dreaming!"
Ye Jinghe remained unmoved by Ye Jingshu's taunts, merely glancing coldly at her retreating figure.
Ye Jingyu also felt that his elder brother was a bit slow, but he was a polite and good boy, so he didn't say anything. He just smiled at Ye Jinghe as he ran past him.
Ye Jinghe runs so slowly, he's sure to win this time!
This is what Ye Jingyu was thinking.
"Jingyu, if you exert yourself too much at the beginning, you'll get tired very quickly," Ye Jingchen kindly reminded her.
"Brother, I will do what I can," Ye Jingyu replied as he ran.
Ye Jingshu and Ye Jingyu were both much faster than Ye Jingchen, and they quickly got ahead.
"Xiao Jinghe, why don't you chase after them? Aren't you afraid of losing to them?" Ye Jingchen asked deliberately, seeing Ye Jinghe following behind him like a little tail, seemingly not caring at all about the competition between him, Ye Jingshu, and Ye Jingyu.
"There's still plenty of time," Ye Jinghe said nonchalantly, then gave Ye Jingchen a sweet smile. "I'll stay with my brother."
"So smart!" Ye Jingchen never hesitated to praise Ye Jinghe.
Ye Jinghe is always happy no matter how many times he hears his brother's praise.
"If you think this speed is too slow, you can run faster," Ye Jingchen said to Yun Shu and the others behind him.
Ye Jingchen's speed was indeed very slow, so slow that even with Wu Zemin's height advantage, he could keep up on foot. But walking and running are different things, so he only hesitated for a moment before choosing to overtake Ye Jingchen.
After him, Gu Beichen and Yun Shu also passed them one after another, and those who were at the very back became Ye Jingchen, Ye Jinghe and Xie Chang'an.
"Young Master Xie, don't you think I'm running very slowly?" Ye Jingchen asked with a smile, seeing that Xie Chang'an didn't seem to intend to overtake him.
“It is very slow,” Xie Chang’an said.
He was so slow that he doubted whether running at this pace could really be effective for exercising.
"Then why doesn't Young Master Xie bypass me?" Ye Jingchen asked.
"I want to see what His Highness the Crown Prince is really up to," Xie Chang'an said.
Ye Jingchen smiled, stopped talking, and began to adjust his breathing.
Based on his understanding of Ye Jingshu and Ye Jingyu, they should have been feeling tired by now.
He did run slower than usual today because there were two four-year-old cubs among them. Cubs at this age cannot do strenuous exercise, run too fast, or run for too long.
Ye Jinghe was very obedient and always followed his rhythm.
As for Ye Jingyu, he is easily aroused by an inexplicable competitive spirit when facing Ye Jinghe. However, he is not reckless. Although he is ahead of them, he does not run very fast. He knows how to act within his limits at a young age.
Ye Jingshu, on the other hand, ran to the front and was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, running faster and faster until her figure was soon disappeared into the flower bushes.
But she's not the type to compromise herself. If she gets tired, she'll probably stop and rest, and she might be resting right now.
Ye Jingchen maintained a suitable pace, running at a moderate speed.
The small garden of the East Palace is secluded and winding, with paths hidden among flowers. On both sides are gorgeous flowers, and a gentle breeze caresses your cheeks. With every breath, you are filled with the sweet fragrance of flowers and plants.
In this atmosphere of birdsong and fragrant flowers, the sound of reading aloud suddenly rang out.
Confucius said, “Is it not a pleasure to learn and at due times to practice what you have learned? Is it not delightful to have friends coming from afar? Is it not the mark of a gentleman to remain unperturbed when others do not recognize your merits?”
From the very beginning, Ye Jingchen said that he would read while jogging in the morning. Since the morning run had started, how could there be no sound of reading?
