Su Ling's Time Travel

At this crucial moment, Tong Jinyu entered Li Qinghe's palace. He was dressed in a magnificent brocade robe, his face handsome, but his eyes flickered with a complex expression. He knew that the news of Li Qinghe's pregnancy had spread far and wide, and he was thus caught in a predicament.

"Sister Qinghe, you..." Tong Jinyu hesitated, unsure how to express his feelings.

Li Qinghe looked up and saw the complex expression on Tong Jinyu's face, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart. She knew that Tong Jinyu had always had deep feelings for her, and she regarded him as her own younger brother.

"Jinyu, what's wrong? Tell me what's wrong," Li Qinghe said gently, her voice revealing a hint of weariness and helplessness.

Tong Jinyu took a deep breath and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Sister Qinghe, I don't want you to give birth to this child. You know how cruel the struggles in the harem are. This child will become your weakness and plunge you into an even deeper predicament."

However, Li Qinghe just shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Jin Yu, you are wrong. This child is not only my hope, but also the foundation for my foothold in the harem. Only by having my own child can I gain a foothold in this strife-filled palace."

Upon hearing this, Tong Jinyu felt a pang of disappointment. He hadn't expected Li Qinghe to be so determined to give birth to the child. He began to realize that his thinking had been flawed all along. He had believed that as long as he could protect Li Qinghe, she would be safe and sound in the harem. But now it seemed he was wrong. The struggles within the harem were far more complex and cruel than he had imagined.

“Sister Qinghe, you’ve changed,” Tong Jinyu said softly, his eyes filled with disappointment and pain. “You used to be so strong and independent, but now you’re in trouble because of a child. I don’t understand, why?”

Upon hearing this, Li Qinghe felt a pang of pain in her heart. She knew that Tong Jinyu had always regarded her as his role model and support. But now it seemed that she could no longer be his support. She had to fight for her child and her future.

“Jin Yu, you’re wrong,” Li Qinghe said firmly. “I haven’t changed. I’ve just become more aware of my goals and mission. In this strife-filled palace, I must have my own children and power to survive. This is something I cannot compromise on.”

Upon hearing this, Tong Jinyu felt a pang of helplessness and loss. He began to realize that he could no longer return to the close relationship he had shared with Li Qinghe. The distance between them was growing ever wider, and he had to start searching for a new source of support and strength.

Therefore, Tong Jinyu began to align himself more closely with Tong Jincheng. He knew that only by relying on Tong Jincheng's strength and wisdom could he gain a foothold in this treacherous palace. He began to consult Tong Jincheng on various court intrigues and fighting techniques, hoping to receive his guidance and assistance.

Tong Jincheng did not disappoint Tong Jinyu's expectations. He used his experience and wisdom to guide Tong Jinyu's actions and decisions in the harem. He told Tong Jinyu that in order to gain a foothold in the harem, she must have her own power and influence. And to have power and influence, she must learn how to cooperate and form alliances with others.

Under Tong Jincheng's guidance, Tong Jinyu gradually began to understand the dynamics and relationships within the imperial harem. He learned how to cooperate and form alliances, and how to use his wisdom and skills to navigate complex situations. His abilities and intelligence gradually gained recognition and appreciation from influential figures in the harem.

At the same time, Li Qinghe is also fighting for her own future and her child's destiny.

The atmosphere in the imperial court was solemn. The assembled officials sat in rows, all eyes focused on one man—Tong Jincheng. He stood tall and straight, his face resolute, as he delivered a rousing speech, showcasing his governing philosophy and extraordinary talent. Every word he uttered resonated deeply, seemingly penetrating the hearts of everyone present and moving them all.

Empress Su Ling, seated on her throne, had a glint in her eye and a meaningful smile playing on her lips. She knew all too well that Tong Jincheng's rise posed a threat to Li Qinghe's power, which was exactly what she desired. Therefore, she seized the opportunity to strike at Li Qinghe's influence, attempting to stir up a storm in the court.

“Tong Jincheng is absolutely right. However, the fact that Li Qinghe’s troops have made repeated mistakes is truly worrying.” Su Ling’s voice was clear and powerful. Her words were like a sharp knife, pointing directly at Li Qinghe’s power.

The court was immediately abuzz with discussion. Some supported Su Ling's viewpoint, believing that Li Qinghe's power was indeed problematic; others opposed it, arguing that Su Ling was using the opportunity to suppress dissent.

Tong Jinyu sat to one side, his fists clenched, his heart filled with rage. He knew Su Ling's intentions were sinister; she was trying to use the court intrigue to weaken Li Qinghe's power. However, he couldn't directly refute Su Ling's words, because that would mean making an enemy of the entire Empress's faction.
