Jie teaches the Immortal Sweeping Heaven’s Cultivation of All Heavens
Chapter 1708 Family Heirloom Mystic Sect 12
Feng Laiyi left through the window again.
During the day, he had already located the location of Marshal Li's study.
This time, we went directly to Marshal Li's study.
Climbing through the window, Feng Laiyi saw the unconscious Marshal Li and revealed a murderous smile.
He pulled out the dagger strapped to his calf and swiftly and decisively slit Commander Li's throat.
He wiped the blood off the dagger with Li Dashuai's clothes, put it away, and swiftly climbed out the window to return to the room where he was imprisoned.
I lay down on the bed, closed my eyes, and quickly drifted off to sleep.
He was unaware that everything he did was being observed by two pairs of eyes.
Liu Tong and Qin Yi stood about 200 meters away from the Marshal's Mansion, each holding a pair of binoculars, watching the grand performance inside.
Qin Yi: "So Feng Laiyi's purpose was to kill Li Dashan."
Liu Tong: "Li Dashan is his father's killer."
Qin Yi scoffed: "I wouldn't be surprised if someone like Li Dashan had many enemies."
Seeing that Feng Laiyi had fallen asleep, the two admired his strong mentality and, knowing there was no more drama to watch, returned to the Sun residence.
The following day, the Li family discovered Li Dashan's body.
Chaos broke out in the Li family mansion. The Li family's sons threw Feng Laiyi into prison and pinned the murder on her.
They also knew that Feng Laiyi was "innocent".
Feng Laiyi was kept in a room with soldiers guarding the door. How did she manage to escape and kill someone?
They just want someone to take the blame.
Feng Laiyi can only blame herself for her bad luck.
In order to solidify Feng Laiyi's guilt in murder, they even took their anger out on Old Master Sun, who had introduced Feng Laiyi to Commander Li, and ordered a group of soldiers to storm into the Sun family home and arrest Old Master Sun.
Grandpa Sun, seeing the composed Liu Dong, also regained his composure.
After Liu Dong foresaw that he would be imprisoned, he made arrangements in advance.
He couldn't escape this calamity, but he could resolve it quickly.
Old Master Sun was highly respected in the area, and even if Commander Li's sons arrested people, they wouldn't dare to go too far.
The cell where Grandpa Sun was imprisoned had been cleaned, and the soldiers guarding the cell had accepted bribes from the Sun family, allowing them to send Grandpa Sun brocade quilts and hot food.
The camera then shifts to Feng Laiyi's side.
When the young masters of the Li family were about to throw Feng Laiyi into prison, the fifth concubine came up with a plan to take the blame for her son.
Feng Laiyi stopped her with a look.
Fifth Concubine held back her tears, which welled up in her eyes. Others thought she was grieving for the death of Marshal Li, but Li Yuan, as his daughter, knew that her mother had no feelings for her father at all.
No, there were still feelings, but those feelings were negative; the mother hated the father.
Li Yuan had figured it out long ago. Thinking that her biological mother had been taken away by her biological father, she could understand why her biological mother was resentful.
In fact, none of these concubines and wives truly liked Marshal Li.
Even the eighth concubine, who was best at pleasing Marshal Li, still kept a lover outside.
Besides his own mother, the third and sixth concubines also resented Commander Li.
The sixth concubine had a childhood sweetheart and fiancé. She was looking forward to marrying the man she loved, but when she went to the street, she caught the eye of Marshal Li and was taken back to the Marshal's mansion.
Her fiancé came to confront her, but was beaten by servants from the Marshal's mansion.
While she was recovering from her injuries, her fiancé was forced to leave for another place and was never heard from again.
How could General Li's actions not arouse resentment?
Li Yuan noticed that Fifth Concubine's tears were directed at Feng Laiyi. Did her own mother know this person?
What is their relationship?
Pulling the fifth concubine back to her room, Li Yuan quietly asked about her doubts.
Fifth Concubine raised her hand and touched her daughter's smooth face. Her daughter was just as smart as her brother.
Fifth concubine: "He is your brother."
Li Yuan: "Huh?" Fifth Concubine sighed: "You know, I was taken from you by your father, right?"
Li Yuan nodded: "Half of the concubines in the mansion were taken by Father."
Fifth concubine: "My experience was very similar to that of the sixth concubine. The difference was that I was already married and had children at the time, but when my husband came to demand an explanation, he was beaten to death by Li Dashan. My poor son was left behind, and he had no choice but to join an opera troupe to make a living."
Li Yuan was dumbfounded.
I knew Li Dashan wasn't a good person, but I never imagined he could be so wicked.
Li Yuan: "Um, Sixth Concubine's fiancé, it's said he's gone far away..."
Fifth concubine: "He was probably killed by Li Dashan too."
Li Yuan didn't know what to say.
She couldn't utter a single word in defense of Li Dashan.
Fifth Concubine patted her head and said softly, "Li Dashan's evil deeds have nothing to do with you. You should leave the Li family with your mother. Go back to my hometown, and we, mother and daughter, will live together."
After learning that Li Dashan had been killed, the fifth concubine knew about her son's methods.
Therefore, she gave up the idea of staying by her son's side to take care of him.
Her son has grown into a remarkable person and no longer needs her, as his mother, to worry about him.
The daughter, however, has lost her father's protection and needs her mother's protection and care.
Although the son said he wouldn't mind having a younger sister, he was, after all, the daughter's father's killer.
The fifth concubine didn't want to gamble on what her daughter would do after learning the truth.
She didn't want the two of them to become enemies.
Therefore, it would be better to separate the two of them from the beginning.
Li Yuan speculated: "Could it be that my father was killed by Feng Laiyi? Is he here for revenge?"
Fifth Concubine's heart skipped a beat; her worst fears were about to come true.
But Li Yuan shook her head: "Feng Laiyi is locked inside the house, guarded by soldiers outside. She has no chance to kill her father."
Fifth Concubine breathed a sigh of relief.
Fifth concubine: "You're right. Your eldest brother has been imprisoned and has no chance to get close to your father."
Li Yuan's eyes dimmed.
Her mother's reaction made her realize the truth.
Her biological father was indeed killed by her half-brother.
It's possible that her own mother was involved.
She remembered the bowl of soup her mother had served to her father.
Normally, a mother wouldn't be this attentive to her own father.
Li Yuan should resent them, but she can't bring herself to do so.
My elder brother and mother did nothing wrong; they were just seeking revenge for their loved ones.
But, Commander Li is her biological father!
She really didn't know how to face her father's killer.
Li Yuan: "Mother, let's leave now! While the Li family is in chaos and no one is looking after us, let's go back to your hometown."
Fifth concubine: "But your eldest brother is still in jail..."
Li Yuan: "My elder brother is a famous actor in Beiping and knows many powerful and influential people. The Li family doesn't dare to treat him too badly. As long as those powerful and influential people intervene, my elder brother will be safe and sound."
The fifth concubine met her daughter's eyes and a realization dawned on her.
My daughter is so smart.
The fifth concubine sighed and said softly, "Alright, let's leave together." (End of Chapter)
