Bai Zhi’er turned her gaze to him.
"Old man, you’re mistaken. Let ask you, after your ancestors passed away, were they all buried on the mountain?"
The old carpenter was taken aback: "Of course, not just my ancestors, the ancestral graves of our entire village are all in one place."
Bai Zhi’er nodded her little head.
She blinked her long lashes: "Then, do so many white bones on the mountain affect its lush trees and bubbling streams?"
The old carpenter hesitated: "Of course not."
Bai Zhi’er let out a light hum.
"Then it’s settled. There’s no problem on the mountain, so why should digging up bones here be any different? Even if they’re white bones, they were once living people."
"Before we figure out the reason, let’s not consider it a bad on. Sotis, we need to be rational and not believe too much in ghosts and superstitions!"
The little one’s logical and well-reasoned words made everyone nod repeatedly.
The craftsn, who were feeling unlucky because of the uncovered bones, now looked much better.
The Princess is right; since it’s the earth, it’s not strange to dig out anything.
Bai Zhi’er then looked at the bones wrapped in black cloth.
She pinched her chin with her small hand, and her round eyes sparkled with contemplation.
Hmm, when we bought the house, the old housekeeper only ntioned it was haunted but said nothing else.
Bai Zhi’er squatted down and carefully examined.
Lu Wang stood not far behind her, slightly surprised by the scene.
In his eyes, the little one was a re mortal with a short lifespan, and yet at such a young age, she wasn’t afraid of skeletons?
Bai Zhi’er examined for quite a while.
She stood up and suddenly spoke in her soft voice: "These are fake; they were recently buried, for no more than three days."
Everyone was astonished upon hearing this.
Bai Zhi’er explained her thoughts clearly and logically to everyone.
"dical books say it takes ti for ordinary bodies to beco bones. If these bones had been buried here for a long ti, they wouldn’t be so intact."
"Moreover, the gaps in the bones wouldn’t be this clean. Obviously, soone deliberately buried the bones here."
After the little one spoke, everyone’s expressions changed.
Burying bones on purpose, isn’t that malicious!
Bai Zhi’er crossed her arms and murmured, "If it’s deliberate, there might be only two purposes."
"One is to target and spread bad rumors."
However, the rumor of the little princess being blessed with good fortune is well-known.
So that’s unlikely.
Bai Zhi’er puffed her cheeks and revealed the last purpose.
"The second is to scare the craftsn with bones and delay the completion of the Wen Mansion!"
The housekeeper imdiately pointed at the craftsn and shouted angrily, "One of them must have done it, having the courage to bury such dirty things in the Wen Mansion?"
He bowed to Bai Zhi’er: "Your Highness, give so ti, and I’ll definitely find the culprit and bring them to justice for you!"
Bai Zhi’er shook her head.
"No need to look for them specifically, because the lonely souls behind the bones will find the one who hard them."
Everyone gasped.
Even the housekeeper’s face turned white.
He asked tremblingly: "Your Highness, do you an that these bones were also killed by that person?"
Bai Zhi’er smiled sweetly: "Of course not, but that person unearthed these corpses, which should have been resting peacefully underground, and exposed them to the autumn sun. Isn’t that a disturbance?"
