Su Ling's Time Travel
Chapter 74 First Meeting with Tong Jincheng
In the days that followed, Su Ling began to restore order to the harem. She discovered that although Li Qinghe was clever and quick-witted, she was also extremely ruthless. She repeatedly plotted to frame other concubines, including Su Ling herself.
Su Ling decided to teach Li Qinghe a lesson. She secretly investigated Li Qinghe's actions and collected a large amount of evidence. Then, at an opportune moment, she presented this evidence to Tong Jinyu.
After reviewing the evidence, Tong Jinyu was furious. He hadn't expected Li Qinghe to be so ruthless. He immediately ordered Li Qinghe to be banished to the Cold Palace and stripped of all her titles.
The concubines in the harem were shocked upon hearing the news. They realized that Su Ling was no longer the weak woman who could be bullied at will, but an empress with wisdom and skill.
However, Su Ling was not satisfied with this. She knew that the struggles within the court would never cease, and she had to remain vigilant at all times. At the same time, she also began to pay attention to the situation in the court and the growth of the princes.
She discovered that Prince Tong Jincheng, though still young, was intelligent and exceptionally talented. However, he suffered greatly from bullying because of his mother's humble origins. Su Ling couldn't bear to see this and decided to adopt Tong Jincheng and provide him with a better environment to grow up in.
She went to Tong Jinyu to discuss this matter: "Jinyu, I think we should give Jincheng a better environment to grow up in. He is smart and quick-witted, and he will definitely achieve something in the future."
Tong Jinyu was taken aback by his words, then nodded: "You're right, Jincheng is indeed a talented child. However, his mother comes from a humble background, and I'm afraid he will face discrimination in the future."
“Then let me adopt him,” Su Ling said firmly. “I will provide him with better educational resources and a better living environment so that he can grow up healthy and happy.”
Looking into Su Ling's determined eyes, Tong Jinyu felt a surge of warmth in his heart. He knew Su Ling was a kind and intelligent woman, and he believed she could give Jin Cheng a better future.
So, Tong Jincheng was brought to Su Ling's palace. Su Ling arranged the best room and servants for him, and also invited a famous scholar named Jiang Yexuan to be his teacher.
Jiang Yexuan was a learned and talented man. He was very strict with Tong Jincheng's education, but also full of love. Under Jiang Yexuan's guidance, Tong Jincheng's knowledge and talent improved rapidly.
Su Ling felt gratified as she watched Tong Jincheng grow up.
On a spring afternoon, sunlight filtered through the clouds, dappling the bluestone paths of the palace and adding a touch of gentleness to the magnificent structure. Su Ling, the mistress of this palace, dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, strolled leisurely among the flowers. Every step she took was so composed and unhurried, as if she had been born to belong to this world.
Su Ling, originally an ordinary woman from modern times, was transported to an unknown ancient dynasty by accident and became its esteemed empress. With the wisdom and resilience of a modern person, she gradually established herself in this world of palace intrigue. However, even in her high position, her concern for humanity and compassion for the weak never wavered.
That day, she heard that there was a young man named Tong Jincheng outside the palace whose mother was seriously ill, and whose family was too poor to afford medical treatment. Su Ling's heart stirred, and she decided to meet this young man herself. She sent someone to bring Tong Jincheng into the palace and instructed the servants to treat him with the best possible care.
The moment Tong Jincheng stepped into the palace, it was as if he had entered a completely new world. He had never seen such a magnificent sight, and a sense of fear and unease arose in his heart. He followed closely behind the palace maid who was leading the way, passing through long corridors with carved beams and painted rafters, and finally arrived in front of Su Ling.
Su Ling sat high on her phoenix throne, her gaze gently surveying the young man. She noticed that Tong Jincheng was dressed in rags and looked haggard, but his eyes were unusually bright, revealing an indomitable spirit and resilience. She nodded inwardly, knowing that this young man was no ordinary person.
"Tong Jincheng, I heard that your mother is seriously ill, so I specially sent someone to bring you into the palace, hoping to provide you with some assistance." Su Ling's voice was gentle yet authoritative, and her words revealed an undeniable power.
Upon hearing this, Tong Jincheng felt a surge of gratitude. He knelt down and respectfully said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty. I am deeply grateful."
Su Ling smiled slightly, gesturing for him to rise. She continued, "I have arranged a new courtyard for you and your mother, and prepared clothing and medicine. I will also send the best imperial physicians to treat your mother's illness. Rest assured, you will receive the best care here with me."
Upon hearing this, Tong Jincheng was deeply moved. He had never imagined that a lowly commoner like himself could receive such favor from the Empress. He knelt down again, his voice choked with emotion, and said, "Your Majesty's kindness and virtue are beyond my ability to repay. I only wish Your Majesty good health and longevity, and I am willing to serve Your Majesty with my life."
