Bei Yutang was so shocked that she covered her mouth and bit her lower lip tightly to prevent herself from screaming.
She never thought that the two of them would actually…
They were father and daughter. Although they were not biological children, they were still father and daughter in name.
Their behavior was incest and was not tolerated by etiquette and law.
If this matter were known to outsiders, both of them would be thrown into the pig cage.
Bei Yutang returned to her room in a daze. She was in shock and couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time.
She didn’t dare say anything about this and just swallowed it silently.
Since that day, Bei Yutang had been secretly observing the two of them, and indeed, she had discovered some clues.
The two of them would secretly exchange glances and would do some intimate things in private when she wasn’t paying attention.
The more she observed, the more frightened she became.
Bei Yutang decided to find a suitable family for Li Mengmeng and marry her off as soon as possible.
However, this matter was strongly opposed by Li Yihong on the grounds that she was still young and he wanted her to stay for two more years.
Li Mengmeng also disagreed.
Before Bei Yutang could figure out how to solve this problem, Li Yihong went to the capital to take the imperial examination.
Bei Yutang thought that this was a good thing, so she took this opportunity to introduce more young men to Li Mengmeng so that she could get married properly.
On the third day after Li Yihong left, Li Mengmeng wanted to go to the temple with her to pray for Li Yihong. Bei Yutang naturally agreed.
When they arrived at the temple, Li Mengmeng took her to the back mountain on the pretext of something and pushed her off the cliff when she was not paying attention.
Before Bei Yutang died, she saw that Li Mengmeng’s eyes were full of viciousness. She would never forget that look in her life.
Maybe God didn’t want her to die like this. When Bei Yutang fell off the cliff, she was hung on a tree branch.
With the cushion of the branch, she saved her life. A hunter who was hunting in the mountains saw her and rescued her.
When she woke up, it was already half a month later.
It took a full year to heal the wounds. Bei Yutang, who survived, had a completely ruined face and lame legs. She became neither human nor a ghost.
Bei Yutang was unwilling to accept this. She wanted to seek revenge on Li Mengmeng and ask her why she treated her like this.
When she returned to the home where she had lived for many years, she found that it was empty.
She asked other people and found out that Li Yihong, who had failed to pass the imperial examination for many years, unexpectedly, passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar.
Li Yihong, his daughter, and his wife all went to the capital.
Bei Yutang was stunned when she heard the word ‘wife’.
She was clearly here, so where did Li Yihong get his wife from?
She thought that he married another woman later, but others told her that it was Bei Yutang, the daughter of Bei Yuanwai.
Bei Yutang was completely stunned.
She didn’t understand what was going on.
If someone pretended to be her, the people at her home would definitely not sit idly by.
Bei Yutang hurried to the Bei family, but she found that the Bei family was in ruins.
After asking around, she learned that the Bei family had caught fire half a year ago and the entire Bei family was burned to death.
No matter how deep a person’s sleep was, no matter how dead they were, it was impossible that no one could escape alive.
Bei Yutang knew that there must be something fishy going on.
However, no one in the government was in charge, and Li Yihong did not thoroughly investigate the matter for the Bei family.
Even if outsiders felt that it was strange, no one would get involved in this muddy water.
Twenty-four people in the Bei family died in vain.
Bei Yutang was filled with hatred. She decided to find out the truth herself.
She wandered around the city as a beggar, asking for information, and indeed she found some clues.
