OMG! Tyrant's Pampered Baby Is a Valued Princess-Chapter 723: That’s an Omen of Great Misfortune Requiring Bloodshed
Inexplicably, A ruo felt happy.
She squatted down and looked at the grass growing beside the stones under the big tree.
A ruo laughed, "My little stone has someone who misses it!" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Immortal Lord Lu Wang was one of the few good friends she had made!
Meanwhile, in the mortal world.
Bai Zhi’er quietly cut off the mana for transmitting thoughts.
Lu Wang held the paper, reading the poem per Bai Zhi’er’s request, and furrowed his long eyebrows, feeling puzzled.
"Princess, what does this poem mean?"
He didn’t understand.
Bai Zhi’er propped her little chin on her hands and said with a smile, "It means she’s thinking of you!"
Lu Wang was taken aback, "What about the other two lines?"
Bai Zhi’er hurriedly gathered up the rest of the paper, "That’s not important! You must understand, a divination can only be done once, why should you get to see it all?"
She would never tell Lu Wang that all three papers had the same sentence written on them!
Bai Zhi’er did this because A ruo had told her that Lu Wang was an Immortal Lord of the Heavenly Court.
So, the little one was just playing with him.
However, she guessed this Immortal Lord’s mana surely wasn’t as strong as hers.
Otherwise, how could she perform the method of thought transmission right in front of him while he remained completely unaware?
Lu Wang glanced at the poem on the paper, and silently put it down.
"Miss A ruo doesn’t seem like someone with that kind of temperament."
She was a stone, how could she have feelings of longing?
Bai Zhi’er pouted, dismissively, "You also said you’ve only had a few encounters with her, how do you know what her temperament is?"
Lu Wang fell silent.
Could it be, A ruo truly was thinking of him?
No way!
Lu Wang hurriedly shook his head, dismissing the thought.
The Bai Zhi’er in front of him was merely a four-and-a-half-year-old mortal child!
Her so-called divination was nothing more than child’s play!
How could it be taken seriously!
Once he thought of this, Lu Wang’s expression gradually returned to calm seriousness, devoid of any smiles.
Just then, the call of the servant at the Wen Mansion was heard at the door—
"Is Princess inside? Something has happened in Chongde Hall!"
Chongde Hall was a place Bai Zhi’er specifically prepared to use as a Book Collection Pavilion.
The little one heard and immediately put away her playful smile.
She ran out on her little legs, "What’s wrong? Talk and walk."
Lu Wang thought for a moment and followed Bai Zhi’er out.
They only heard the servant’s pale face, as if he were frightened, say, "Just now, the workers were digging the ground preparing to drive piles, but suddenly several skeletons were excavated in the southwest!"
"The old carpenter overseeing production said that finding skeletons while the foundation isn’t laid is very ominous, fearing a blood disaster. They’re refusing to continue, so I had to come and ask the Princess for a decision."
By the time Bai Zhi’er and the others arrived.
The housekeeper who had just fallen into the water had already changed his wet clothes.
He sternly reprimanded the workers standing in a row in front of him.
"It’s just some excavated skeletons, what’s there to be afraid of? Delaying the construction progress of the Wen Mansion disrupts Princess’ affairs and will be heavily punished!"
Bai Zhi’er’s gentle voice, however, carried strictness, "Don’t talk nonsense, how could this Princess punish someone without reason?"
The housekeeper quickly turned around, bowed, and apologized, "I was being too talkative. I just want them to finish quickly."
In the yard stood all the craftsmen constructing the Wen Mansion, about thirty to forty in number.
Bai Zhi’er softly asked, "Where are the skeletons?"
The housekeeper replied, "To avoid sullying the Princess’ eyes, I had someone cover them with a black cloth a while back. They’re over there."
Unafraid, Bai Zhi’er walked over and used her small foot to push away the black cloth.
Underneath the cloth lay indeed sinister white bones.
An old carpenter, aged and unable to hold back, waved his hand and sighed.
"Such bad luck, such bad luck! I once heard from my carpenter master that if a newly built house uncovers bones, it’s a dire omen, sure to see blood."
