Ming Dynasty: At the beginning, the house was ransacked and the ancestral temple was burned down.

Chapter 30: Keep making it up!

Zhang Chonghui's 'confession' was the same as last time. While everyone was shocked, no one believed what he said.

No one would believe that a six-year-old kid could kill a strong, mature man.

Except hell.

"You fart!" Zhang Cheng cursed directly. He walked up to Zhang Chonghui and asked excitedly: "Who instigated you to say that?"

Facing the extremely excited Zhang Cheng, Zhang Chonghui still replied: "No one instigated me, I did it."

"Okay, okay!" Zhang Cheng laughed out of anger. He pointed at Zhang Chonghui and said, "Come on, come on, you continue to make up. We want to see how the person behind you can teach you how to make up!"

When talking about 'the person behind', Zhang Cheng looked directly at Luo Sigong, with doubts in his eyes.

Luo Sigong caught a glimpse of it from the corner of his eye, but still looked calm, as if he didn't notice it.

"I told you that there was no one behind me. It was really me who killed Ren Yangxin." Zhang Chonghui raised his hand and touched his nose while speaking. This is a subconscious move that many people make when lying.

This scene was seen by everyone, and now everyone was even more sure that Zhang Chonghui was lying.

"Why did you want to kill him?" Qiu Li asked seriously, his sharp eyes carefully watching Zhang Chonghui's every move.

"Because he stole my hairpin." Zhang Chonghui answered briefly.

"Your hairpin?" Qiu Li narrowed his eyes slightly, he was trying to trick her.

"Yes, what's wrong with my hairpin?" Zhang Chonghui said matter-of-factly.

Zhang Cheng on the side couldn't hold it anymore and said directly: "What's your hairpin? What kind of hairpin do you, a little boy, have? It's obviously your mother's hairpin! Tell me, did your mother ask you to do it?"

Faced with such a straightforward question, Zhang Chonghui said as if he didn't quite understand: "What did my mother ask me to do? My mother gave me the hairpin, and the hairpin is mine. How can I return the things I gave away?" There is a reason to go back.”

This childish answer left the group of grown men present confused as to what to do.

Most of them are already married and have children at home, and they all have some understanding of children's possessiveness of personal belongings.

This is true for some children. As long as you give him something, he will think that it belongs only to him, such as the right to use and naming, and it will only belong to him.

Qiu Li was even more surprised. He originally suspected that Zhang Chonghui was an 'abnormal' child, but Zhang Chonghui's behavior was indeed the kind of thinking that only children can have.

"It's strange. Could it be that this is a 'normal' child?" Qiu Li was suspicious and continued to question: "Then why did he steal your hairpin? Why didn't you hide the hairpin?"

Zhang Chonghui seemed very angry when he heard this question, and said angrily: "Who knows why he wanted to rob! Also, I hid it well! Who knew he didn't keep his word and actually lied to me!"

Qiu Li: "What did he lie to you about?"

Zhang Chonghui: "He said that as long as I showed him the hairpin, he would help me intercede with that prince. But as soon as I took out the hairpin, he snatched it away."

Qiu Li: "Then what?"

Zhang Chonghui: "Then I asked him to return it to me. If he didn't want to return it, forget it. He also threatened me! He asked me to ask my mother to wait for him here in the middle of the night. Otherwise, not only would he not be able to help me pay for it, If the prince begs for mercy, he will give the hairpin to the prince, saying that it was my mother who took the initiative to seduce him."

Qiu Li: "Have you told your mother?"

Zhang Chonghui: "Of course not. That old pervert has been coveting my mother for a long time and walks around the backyard every day. How could I let him succeed."

Qiu Li: "So? You went to see him in person at midnight?"

Zhang Chonghui: "Well, then... I'll kill him." At this point, there were bursts of low laughter.

The people present actually believed what Zhang Chonghui said before. After all, they had more or less heard about Ren Yangxin wandering around the backyard these days, coveting the Gao family.

Coupled with Ren Yangxin's temperament, it is not surprising that he resorted to such despicable methods of snatching hairpins and forcing good wives.

The previous confessions were all normal, and most people present felt that this was the truth. But Zhang Chonghui's last words were something they wouldn't believe even if they were beaten to death.

How could a six-year-old child kill an adult?

"Tell me the details of how you killed him." Luo Sigong came up. He was different from others. He didn't believe a word of what Zhang Chonghui said from beginning to end!
  "Details? This..." Zhang Chonghui started to feel a little embarrassed. He seemed to be recalling some hard-to-remember memory, like an endorsement, while thinking, he said intermittently:
  "It's just...at the beginning, I lied to my fourth uncle that I was hungry and asked my fourth uncle to find you for food."

Luo Sigong was obviously stunned for a moment and thought to himself: "So he came to me to ask for food?" He quickly denied this guess: "No, he has such a temper that he can't bow down. He just came to me to accuse me. This kid must be lying!"

Zhang Chonghui didn't know what Luo Sigong was thinking, and he didn't care what Luo Sigong would think. He continued:
  "After I sent my fourth uncle away, I went to wait for Ren outside the ancestral hall. Then he came. He was very angry and asked me why my mother didn't go.

I lied to him that my mother was waiting for him in the ancestral hall, but he didn't believe me and said it was pitch black inside, so my mother was definitely not inside.

Then... Anyway, I just tricked him into it, and then he suddenly seemed to be frightened by something, and lay on the ground with his eyes wide open.

When I saw that he was motionless, I wiped his neck directly. So, you should believe it now, right? I really killed him. "

Everyone: "..."

"Haha..." Zhang Cheng laughed bitterly, laughing so hard that tears almost flowed out: "Make it up, just make it up. When His Highness Prince Lu comes down, I'll see how you make it up!"

"I really didn't make it up, everything I said is true." Zhang Chonghui touched his nose again.

Everyone couldn't help but hold their foreheads, and even Qiu Li and Luo Sigong, who were suspicious of Zhang Chonghui, couldn't help but look away.

The atmosphere was bleak and the sky was getting dark.

Everyone basically stayed up all night. When this person was sleepy and exhausted, the arrival of a piece of news cheered everyone up and tensed their nerves.

"Report! His Royal Highness Prince Lu is here!"

……

Outside the Zhang family's mansion.

King Lu Zhu Yili walked out of the sedan chair. When he got off the car, Zhang Cheng, who was the eunuch in charge of the ceremony, hurriedly came forward and knelt on the ground, using his own back as a step for Zhu Yiliu to get off the sedan chair.

Zhu Yili was not polite at all and stepped on it directly.

This scene fell in the eyes of everyone, and everyone was shocked!

You know, even if Zhang Cheng is just a eunuch, he is also the eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies, and he is also the emperor's confidant eunuch.

Although Zhu Yili is a prince, he is only a prince.

A prince dared to trample on the emperor's confidant eunuch so boldly. If this happened to other emperors, he would have been beheaded long ago.

However, Zhu Yili seems to have been accustomed to this kind of transgression. It seems that everything about his brother Zhu Yijun belongs to him.
