Reborn, meet you again!

Chapter 244 Take action

The night gradually deepens.

There was silence in the Su Mansion.

Su Ling'er tossed and turned in bed for a long time but couldn't fall asleep, so she simply sat up and sat on the bed blankly, not knowing what she was thinking.

Just then, there was a slight sound of footsteps outside the door, but Su Ling'er seemed to be lost in her own thoughts and did not notice it.

It was not until a faint candlelight lit up in the room that she belatedly raised her head.

"Who?"

The door was gently pushed open, and Mrs. Su Li walked in slowly.

"Ling'er, it's so late, why haven't you rested yet?"

"But you're still sad about what happened during the day?"

The gentleness in Li's voice, which was completely different from her usual tone, brought Su Ling'er out of her thoughts.

She frowned slightly and looked around, only to find that all the maids in her room had disappeared without a trace. This made her feel a little uneasy for no reason.

She looked at Li who was gradually approaching and spoke.

"Mother... why are you here so late?"

The eldest lady has always disliked the three of them, mother and daughter, and treated them harshly when they were in the Su family.

Although later because of her elder sister and Ye'er, she finally treated them well in order to ensure a good future for Su Ziyao.

But since Su Ziyao's death, her attitude has completely changed, and there is even a gloom and hatred in her eyes when she looks at her and her mother that she had never seen before.

If her father had not been on the side of her and her mother now, based on the eldest lady's previous temper, she and her mother would have suffered so much at her hands. How could she have been so kind as to come at night and ask if she had had a good rest?

Madam Su could hear Su Ling'er's uneasiness, but she just smiled slightly and continued to walk slowly to Su Ling'er's side, with a hint of suppressed excitement slowly emerging in her eyes.

"Of course I'm here to ask Ling'er to do something."

When Su Ling'er saw the look in Madam Su's eyes, she had a bad feeling in her heart.

But she thought that Li was now afraid of her father and elder sister, and would definitely not dare to punish her as arbitrarily as before, so she responded with forced calmness.

"If you have anything to say, mother, why not tell me directly?"

When Li heard this, a gloomy smile suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Your brother is lonely on the road to the underworld. Why don't you... Ling'er marry someone for mother to keep him company?"

Su Ling'er's face turned pale instantly, and her voice was filled with a hint of disbelief.

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

Then, without thinking too much, he shouted out loudly.

"Someone! Come quickly!"

When Madam Su saw Su Ling'er like this, she was not at all flustered, but her voice began to become low and cold.

"People? Where are the people? Your father has also agreed to this matter. As for your mother... I'm afraid she's unconscious now, so how can she care about you..."

"Is there anyone else in this mansion?"

Su Ling'er was shocked when she heard this, and her body involuntarily shrank towards the inside of the bed.

"Impossible? Father wouldn't let you do this... What good would it do him if I died?"

"Aren't you afraid that your elder sister will blame you after she finds out?"

Madam Su just chuckled when she heard this.

"Blame? Blame whom? Blame Jun Jiuchen?"

"After all, tomorrow morning, everyone will think that you committed suicide out of shame and anger because you couldn't bear the humiliation. That bitch Su Jinyue values ​​you so much, so she won't let you go..."

"In this way, my son's revenge can be avenged! Isn't it?"

"Isn't Su Jinyue unwilling to seek justice for Ziyao? I want to see if she can still remain calm if you die."

As Mrs. Su spoke, her expression became increasingly excited.

"As for your father's benefits? Jun Jiuchen has repeatedly prevented your father and brother from entering the government. Only by eliminating him can the Su family have a chance to rise. With such a good opportunity, how could he be reluctant to sacrifice the life of a mere concubine like you!"

Su Ling'er was shocked when she heard this.

They wanted to use her death to frame the eldest sister.

How can this be possible...

At this moment, the thoughts that had been lingering in her mind just now all dissipated from her heart, and she only had one thought in her mind.

That is……

She must not let her elder sister get involved again.

She thought that she should leave a few words to tell her elder sister the truth, but before she could think of a way, Madam Su spoke sternly.

"Do it!"

Then, an old woman came out from behind her, holding...

Holding a white silk.

---

The next morning, the Su Mansion was in chaos.

The news that Su Ling'er committed suicide by taking poison spread throughout the Su Mansion.

In Su Jinyue's bedroom, Su Jinyue was having breakfast with the little emperor who had just returned from court, when suddenly a palace maid came to report.

Shen Yuru and Su Guangren came.

Su Jinyue was a little surprised that her mother came into the palace with her father, and came so early.

Then Shen Yuru walked in with red and swollen eyes. She ignored the little emperor and many palace maids, and spoke to Su Jinyue in a crying voice without even bowing.

"Yue'er, Ling'er is in trouble!!"

Su Jinyue's heart sank when she heard this. She quickly dismissed the palace maids and helped her mother up.

"Mother, what happened to Ling'er? Please tell me slowly."

Shen Yuru, however, was already sobbing uncontrollably after seeing her daughter, and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

Su Guangren pretended to be sad and stepped forward to tell the whole story.

Su Jinyue was also shocked when she heard the news that her sister was dead.

Ling'er is dead?

how can that be possible?

She was clearly fine yesterday.

Even before the Mid-Autumn Festival state banquet began, she was still chatting with her in the palace, just like when they were children, affectionately calling her elder sister and acting coquettishly with her.

She was still thinking yesterday that she had been wronged by the Mid-Autumn State Banquet and that she would definitely summon her to the palace to comfort her, but she was hindered by matters in the palace.

I was just planning to send someone to Su's house to fetch her after I had breakfast with Ye'er today.

But how could it happen in a flash?

The person died?

She's such a timid person.

How could he have the courage to commit suicide?

Thinking of this, Su Jinyue only felt that the lingering incense in the hall could not dispel the chill in her heart. She tightened her fingers slightly and looked at Su Guangren with a bit of disbelief and questioning.

"Father, did Ling'er really hang herself?"

"Where have all the maids in the mansion gone? How can they not even keep an eye on one person?"
