Ma Si woke up suddenly, his eyes widened, and there were more than a dozen fierce soldiers standing in front of him and behind him. He was busy resisting, so the men took the hemp rope and went straight up. Ma Si tried his best to break free from the arms of the officers and soldiers, but he was finally held down and tied out of the house.

Wei Chong looked at the panting officers and soldiers, and then at Ma Si, who was shaped like a strong bear, and had to be a little jealous: "Tie it tight, don't let him break away." ”

The officers and soldiers hurriedly tied a dead knot and nodded at Wei Chong.

"Does your brother Ma Wu live here?" Wei Chong spat on the ground and stepped on it with his boots, "You don't have to force him to kneel, let's talk to this catcher first." ”

Ma Si resolutely raised his neck and didn't say a word.

Wei Chong gritted his teeth in anger, grabbed the whip, and slammed it into his face, scraping a bloody mark.

"It doesn't matter if he doesn't say it," Wei Chong threw away his whip, "search is, you can always find it everywhere." I won't wait here, I will take this guy to the prison cell for interrogation first, and then you will arrest Ma Wu. ”

Several officers and soldiers walked into the black hole prison, lit torches and braziers, and opened the door of a room, and there was a clanging sound.

Ma Si staggered over with his hands and feet shackled, and Wei Chong behind him was still holding a rattan whip, urging loudly and relentlessly—this made Ma Si's bare feet grind out a large blood mark by the pitted ground.

"Get in!"

Ma Si was pushed into the room by Wei Chong, leaned against the wall, and turned around, his eyes still full of hostility, like a sharp sword, which made Wei Chong's heart chill, even though he was facing an unarmed criminal.

"Shouldn't you be ready to inform Governor Ye and let him try the case tomorrow?" The cell boss asked, sitting in front of a brazier next to him.

"Lord Ye's affairs are heavy, and it is inconvenient to try the case," Wei Chong let out a sinister laugh and slowly approached Ma Si, "I see, please ask the cell boss to set up a seat here and ask the details of this guy, how about it?" ”

"Great!" The cell boss readily agreed, "Brothers, call a few people who can write to come and accompany Wei Ye to sit here to interrogate prisoners!" ”

"Take off the shackles." Wei Chong sat on the bench with his ass over, crossed his legs, and called the jailer.

The jailers untied the shackles, which weighed more than 10 pounds, and threw them in the corner.

"Kneel." Wei Chong deliberately dragged his voice very long to show his majesty.

"Kneel, I don't want to kneel for my son!" Ma Si, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly jumped like thunder and strode forward, but his shoulders were held by someone, and he only hit his body.

"Bold!" Wei Chong was furious, "Believe it or not, Master Wei let you die!" On your knees! ”

"Death is death, and unfilial things dare to kill the old ......"

"Bold! Daring! Daring! Wei Chong smashed the wall three times, "Beat this guy first, lest he bite indiscriminately!" ”

The jailers finally heard the order to strike, and several fists slammed into the jawbone, knocking out two of the front teeth and causing Ma Si to spit out a mouthful of blood.

But he still stood, standing upright like a stone statue, just wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

Wei Chong's head was about to explode, and he continued to yell manically: "If he doesn't speak, force him to kneel!" If you don't kneel, this case won't be tried today! ”

Three or five jailers broke his legs and kicked him in the knees...... Many methods have been exhausted, but they have not worked. Seeing that Ma Si was so stubborn, the cell boss couldn't stand it anymore, rolled up his sleeves and pushed everyone away: "I'll try." ”

He ran to the corner, picked up the heavy shackles, and dangled in front of Ma Si: "You kneel but don't kneel?" ”

Ma Si spat in his face, which made the cell boss angry, and smashed the handcuffs into the former's ankle, scraping off a piece of flesh.

His foot twitched, but instead of bending his knees, he straightened up, letting the blood trickle down his toes and into the ground.

Wei Chong couldn't believe that the strong man in front of him had such courage, his eyes straightened with fright, and he was dazed. Not only Wei Shuban, but even the 'veterans' around him who had been in the sand for a long time and were accustomed to seeing the various postures of prisoners, couldn't help but be shocked and looked at his steel body again.

"Smash ...... again?" A prison guard looked around with empty eyes.

The cell boss wiped his sweat, hurriedly came out of the number room, and said in Wei Chong's ear: "This person is unwilling to kneel, let alone confess?" You can't beat him to death in prison...... No matter how you say it, you have to be condemned. ”

Wei Chong frowned: "This guy is very stubborn, if his brother is the same virtue as him, wouldn't it be a bad thing......"

"The sinners have arrived!"

Wei Chong twisted his neck and saw a thin figure of the officers and soldiers, although the man was tall, he was thinner than his brother; The face is small and dark, and the appearance is very simple.

"You're Ma Si's younger brother?" Wei Chong took a different strategy towards him, raising his eyebrows and smiling.

When Ma Wu heard that he was a person who was ordered to do so, he hurriedly replied: "Oh, under the ...... Villain: Yes. ”

"The shackles are unshackled," Wei Chong commanded as he shook hands, "this one is reasonable." ”

"Thank you!" Seeing that he was also friendly, Ma Wu waved and shook hands with him.

"Do you know what sins your Ma family has committed?" Wei Chong pulled him aside so that Ma Si wouldn't see it and disturb their conversation.

"I really don't know, I'm here for no reason." Ma Wu replied with a bow.

"I'll tell you about it," Wei Chong said calmly, "Your brother is not very good at dealing with civil officials like Wei; I'm in charge of redundancy, so I have to look at the situation of the Inspection Division, right? Because of some old grievances, your brother was not satisfied, and said a few unpleasant things to me. It's not that Wei is stingy, but this is harmful to the authority of the yamen. I will judge him. As a result, I don't know which colleague he offended again, and he told what kind of fish and meat in the township, corruption and bribery. But it hasn't come true yet, and these things are still under strict investigation......"

"Our family is innocent, and we will never do such a bad thing!" Ma Wu felt deeply wronged.

"I didn't say anything," Wei Chong hurriedly reassured, "It's good that you have a clear conscience." But it's not good for your brother to disobey orders and mess around in prison. If you can persuade the horse catcher to believe Wei and obey the arrangement of the yamen, you can ensure that he will be acquitted. If the emperor listens to it now and gives him a big crime of disobeying the order, I can't do anything. ”

Ma Wu sighed for a while: "My brother is usually fierce, he is stubborn with a donkey, and no one can make sense." Disaster today! I'll see if I can persuade them. ”

"Okay, let's take a look." Wei Chong motioned for two sergeants to take him into the room.

"Brother!" Ma Wu saw Ma Si's unkempt hair and covered in blood, and he knelt on the ground, "How did you become such a miserable state?" ”

Ma Si moved his body with difficulty: "Brother Xian, you are also ...... To be locked up here? ”

"No, no," Ma Wu pointed to his clothes, "they treat me well......

When Ma Si heard this, he knew that he was ordered by someone to persuade him, so he waved his hand in disappointment: "You stand down, lobbyists are not welcome here!" ”
