Su Ling's Time Travel

Chapter 85 Su Ling Goes to the Border

Tong Jinyu nodded, his eyes shining with determination. He knew he had to prove his worth and ability through his actions. He gripped Su Ling's hand tightly, his voice filled with gratitude and resolve: "Mother, thank you for your continued support and encouragement. I will definitely prove myself with my actions, and I will definitely return safely."

Watching Tong Jinyu's resolute figure recede into the distance, Su Ling felt a surge of inexplicable emotion. She knew her son was about to embark on a path filled with unknowns and challenges. But she also believed he possessed the courage and wisdom to face anything. She silently prayed for Tong Jinyu's safe return.

The following morning, sunlight bathed every corner of the palace. Outside the city gates, the Emperor sat regally on his dragon throne, his majestic gaze sweeping over the crowd below. He spoke slowly, his voice carrying an undeniable firmness: "Today, I am here to bid farewell to my two sons. They are about to embark on the battlefield to win honor for the nation and the royal family. I hope they will return safely, and I believe they will."

As soon as the Emperor finished speaking, Tong Jincheng and Tong Jinyu, dressed in armor and holding long swords, walked up to him with heroic bearing. They said in unison, "Your subjects will certainly not fail in their mission and will definitely return safely."

Su Ling stood to the side, watching the resolute expressions on her two sons' faces, a complex emotion welling up inside her. She knew this was part of their growth, and their responsibility as princes. She silently prayed for her two sons, hoping for their safe return.

With the Emperor's command, Tong Jincheng and Tong Jinyu embarked on their journey to war. Their shadows stretched long in the sunlight, gradually disappearing from sight. Su Ling watched her two sons' departing figures, a strange emotion welling up within her. She knew that a path filled with unknowns and challenges awaited them. But she also believed that they possessed the courage and wisdom to face anything.

Days passed, and Su Ling's health grew weaker. She often felt powerless, even finding it difficult to walk. But she never told anyone, not even Tong Jinyu. She knew that if Tong Jinyu knew she was unwell, he would be distracted and unable to focus on matters on the battlefield.

However, Tong Jinyu noticed the changes in his mother. He often visited Su Ling at Fengqi Palace, though he didn't stay overnight, his heart was always with his mother. He saw that his mother's face was growing paler day by day, and her eyes revealed a hint of weariness and weakness. A nameless worry and anxiety welled up in his heart.

One evening, Tong Jinyu came to Fengqi Palace again. He gently pushed open the door and saw Su Ling sitting by the window, gazing blankly at the moonlight. He walked to Su Ling's side and asked softly, "Mother, are you feeling unwell? Why do you always look pale and listless lately?"

Upon hearing this, Su Ling's heart tightened. She knew she could no longer hide it. She gently grasped Tong Jinyu's hand, her voice tinged with tenderness and helplessness: "Jinyu, actually, Mother's health has always been poor. I just haven't told you, afraid of distracting you and causing you worry. But now it seems I can no longer hide it."

Upon hearing this, Tong Jinyu felt an indescribable grief and worry welling up inside him. He held Su Ling's hand tightly, his voice filled with determination and resolve: "Mother, why didn't you tell me? I am your son, and it is my responsibility to take care of you and protect you. Don't worry, I will definitely find the best doctor to treat your illness."

Looking into Tong Jinyu's resolute eyes, Su Ling felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She knew that her son had grown up; he now possessed the ability and determination to care for and protect his family. She gently patted the back of Tong Jinyu's hand and smiled, "Okay, Mother believes in you. You must return safely and let Mother see your growth and bravery."

Tong Jinyu nodded, his eyes shining with determination. He knew he had to prove his worth and ability through his actions. He also knew he had to return safely, for his mother, for the royal family, and for himself. He gripped Su Ling's hand tightly, his voice filled with gratitude and resolve: "Mother, thank you for your continued support and encouragement. I will definitely prove myself through my actions, and I will definitely return safely."

The autumn wind was bleak, and the border war was urgent. Su Ling sat in Phoenix Palace, clutching an urgent letter in her hand. It was news from the border, stating that Tong Jincheng and Tong Jinyu were in danger on the battlefield. Her face was pale, her eyes filled with worry and anxiety, and her heart felt as if a huge boulder was pressing down on it, making it almost impossible for her to breathe.

"Juxin, prepare the carriage. I need to go to the border immediately." Su Ling's voice was firm and unwavering. She knew that she could not fall at this moment; her sons needed her.

Upon hearing this, Ju Xin's expression changed. She knew that the border war was tense and this trip was extremely dangerous, but seeing Su Ling's resolute eyes, she could only nod in agreement and quickly went to prepare the carriage.
