Shi Eryi raised his head, looked at her, and said softly: "When you say to the Empress, something happened to Shi Mansion that night."

Nan Yan hurriedly asked, "What happened?"

Shi Eryi said in a deep voice: "Around the Shi Mansion, there are more than a dozen people, Master Shi Ye, his parents, his relatives, and the servants in the family are all dead."

"What!?"

Nanyan opened her eyes wide.

At this time, Zhu Feng, who was standing beside him, stretched out his hand and gently pressed her chilling hand.

Nan Yan trembled slightly, turned his head to look at him, and Zhu Feng said, "Don't be afraid, and don't affect the child."

“…”

By the way, I said before that the children in my belly have perceptions of the outside world.

I heard such a story and was so scared. I wonder if it would make the child afraid too.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly stretched out her other hand and gently supported her belly.

When Zhu Feng heard this story, from beginning to end, except for his slightly flashing eyes, he had no unnecessary expression at all. He just said lightly: "Where is Shi Lian?"

Shi Eryi said: "He is dead too."

“…”

"Everyone died overnight."

“…”

"The government came to investigate and found that they all died of arsenic, and there was no sign of outsiders committing crimes. In addition, Shi Lian had just given birth to a dead baby, and suspected that she was crazy and putting arsenic into the meal, poisoning her to death together with herself."

“…”

"This case can only be considered a unsolved case, but since then, our village has become an ominous place."

Nanyan also frowned as she heard this.

Indeed, such a wealthy family suddenly became more than a dozen people, and the people around were afraid that they would not be willing to look at this place again.

Shi Eryi said: "The house started to be haunted that night, and gradually, no one dared to approach it. The surrounding villages felt that our Jufu Village was ominous, and they all moved away one after another."

“…”

"But we have nowhere to go."

“…”

"So, our ancestors carved a huge stone tablet and buried it under the house as a way to maintain the house."

“…”

"Gradually, that stone tablet became the soul of our village."

“…”

"Our ancestors have always told us that we should not leave this place. Once there is no popularity, those evil spirits will cause trouble."

“…”

"So, we can't leave, and we can't leave either!"

Speaking of this, he started to cry.

The others in the village also cried.

Nan Yan was beside him, listening to the crying of these people, he felt indescribable depression.

It turns out that the people in this village have always carried the warnings left by their ancestors, so that they could not leave. Therefore, although they were hard and despised, they all stick to this and never retreat.

At this moment, she heard a soft sob in her ear.

When I turned around, I saw that it was Xiao Shitou, who was crying, wiped the tears from his face with his sleeve, and his little face immediately turned like a cat.

She sighed, took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, and gently wiped his tears.

At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Xiao Shitou had said to her just now

"Dad also said that no matter where we move, we will be driven away."

"So, we still have to stay here."

...

She thought for a while and said to Zhu Feng: "Your Majesty, I have a word that I want to ask this village chief of Shi."

Zhu Feng turned his head and looked at her.

Then nodded: "You ask."

Nan Yan looked down at Shi Eryi and said, "Captain Shi, just now I heard your son Xiao Shitou say, "You once told everyone that no matter where you move, you will be driven away. Is that?"

Shi Eryi said: "Yes, Caomin said such things?"

"Why do you say such things?"

“…”

"Not to mention whether there are really evil ghosts here. This time, the emperor has expanded the Beiping City, and you can see clearly that the city wall has been built here, expanding the entire city by more than double. At that time, millions of people will have to be moved into this city. How could you not be able to withstand a small village?"

“…”

"Why do you say that you will be driven away wherever you go?"

Shi Eryi smiled bitterly, and then said, "Empress, such a thing happened in our village, which has spread long ago. Others despise our Shi clan and say that our clan would have such shameless women and would cause such a tragedy of family destruction because we have bad virtues."

“…”

"To be honest, over the years, it's not that anyone doesn't want to change their careers or leave."

“…”

"But we can't change our surnames or our clans. When we enter the city, we will still look down on us as soon as we know that we are from Jufu Village and Shi clans."

“…”

"Only by doing this business, we can barely survive. Because there are people in the city every day, even if they don't want to and despise us, they will still come to us to carve the monument."

“…”

"But they use us when they use us, but behind their backs, they still complain about us."

“…”

"Now, the emperor is going to expand the city of Beiping and move our village into the city, but what if we move into the city? We are also disliked. However, the city wall has been built here. If we are driven away in the future, where can we go?"

As he said that, he started to cry.

The young and strong men around were originally all strong and refused to surrender to the officials of the court. When they heard him say this, they burst into tears.

The female members in the crowd burst into tears.

Nanyan felt a sourness in her heart.

She understood a little why the people in this village had to make trouble with the government, not only because of the warnings left by their ancestors that made them have to stay here for generations, but also because of the grievances that have been disliked and despised over the years.

People always need to have an outlet for venting.

Looking at this village, it is indeed like a deserted village, so far away from the city. No matter what you want to eat or use, you have to talk about it for several times more than the ordinary people in the city.

This is how they have been here for so many years.

But this time, they left their hometown and made this group of people who had always lived in the shadows finally burst out.

When Xiao Shitou saw the people in the village crying like this, he cried even harder.

Nan Yan endured the sadness and said softly: "Good boy, stop crying."

She said as she looked at Zhu Feng sitting beside her, but saw that there was still not much expression on his cold face, not even a warm feeling.
