Chapter 329 Contest
Qu Shang's answer left Ma Su speechless for a while.

It is indeed difficult to expect a person with integrity to plot against another person, but it is also impossible to expect a person who is full of intrigues to arrange a proper crime for another person.

In any case, Jia Chong was charged with treason in this way, and the evidence is conclusive.No matter whether others believed it or not, Qu Shang believed it, and he was complacent about it.

Compared with Jiang Ziya, Zhuge Liang, Guo Jia, the three-in-one person, he is so confident.

Under the severe punishment, Jia Chong quickly confessed everything.

To Ma Di's surprise, the content of Jia Chong's confession has nothing to do with not only the assassination case, but also has nothing to do with Sima Shi.

Jia Chong is the son of Jia Kui, the former governor of Yuzhou in the Cao Wei Dynasty. Because Jia Kui died early when Jia Chong was 11 years old, after Shu destroyed Wei, Jia Chong only got rid of a small city gate official, so he claimed to have no contact with the Sima family. Get to know Master Sima.

The reason why he was able to enter and leave the mansions of major officials was entirely due to the reputation of his father Jia Kui, and he came to the door with gifts to ask for recommendation and promotion, not for any other purpose.

Among the high-ranking officials who have visited, Fei Yi, the former Minister of the Ministry of Households, is naturally included. The post of Jia Chong's city official was recommended by Fei Yi.Therefore, when he saw Fei Yi at the gate of the city, Jia Chong would nod to Fei Yi.

After learning of this situation, Ma Di was very disappointed, very disappointed, and decided to interrogate Jia Chong himself.

When he came to Tingwei's prison, he saw that this guy was covered in blood, he had already been served by torture, and he was hanging on the rack in the cell and fell asleep.

Qu Shang found a whip and began to beat him. Jia Chong woke up from the pain and realized that the person standing in front of him was the general Ma Su.

Ma Di signaled Qu Shang to stop, looked down at Jia Chong from a distance of three steps, and asked in a cold voice: "Jia Chong, you have committed a major crime of treason, and the crime should be to kill the three clans, as long as you conspire with Fei Yi If the fact of assassinating this general is brought about truthfully, I will spare your whole family from death."

"General, the villain and Sir Fei Yi are just acquaintances in official circles, and have never conspired against each other."

"Do you know Master Sima?" Ma Su suddenly asked.

Jia Chong was stunned for a moment, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes, which was replaced by blankness immediately, "Back to the general, the villain recognizes him. Sima Shi is the second son of the chariot general, but he probably doesn't recognize the villain."

Qu Shang lashed out with a whip, and reprimanded: "You're still pretending! If I don't believe you, you don't know that Sima Shi is the eldest son of the general of chariots and cavalry!"

Ma Di waved his hand, stopped Qu Shang again, and said to Jia Chong, "As long as you identify Master Sima as your accomplice in the assassination, all your family's lives will be spared except you."

Jia Chong was silent for a while, then shook his head, "General, the villain has never had any contact with Master Sima."

Ma Su shook his head and walked out of the prison.

If you don't know what kind of person Jia Chong is, maybe it is really possible to be fooled by him.

Although the popularity of this era is soaring to the sky, I am willing to have my ribs full of knives for my friends.When normal prisoners can survive by framing others like this, most of them would rather die by themselves than bite others...

But obviously Jia Chong is not on this list.

The more he defends Sima Shi, the more he proves that the two have an ulterior relationship.

It's a gut feeling.Ma Di only asked Jia Chong a word, and he was sure that the matter must have something to do with Master Sima... In his mind, he began to think about how to punish Master Sima.

Regardless of when Jia Chong and Sima Shi met and what kind of relationship they had, Ma Di didn't care about it at all. He only cared about how to make a murderer who dared to assassinate him receive the punishment he deserved.

Thinking to himself that he still needs to use Sima Yi's talents to wipe out Anxi and Rome, coupled with the public opinion in the court at this time, it is really not suitable to deal with Sima Shi now, Ma Di nodded, and decided to wait a few years.

Just when Jia Chong thought he was going to die, Ma Di let him go, and let him go for "rebellion".

Judging from the surprised expressions of Xiang Chong and Qu Shang, it is estimated that they did not expect such a result.

When I came out of the prison cell, the winter sun had already risen to the mid-heaven, and the sky and the earth were bright, and all the conspiracies and tricks hidden in the darkness, evil spirits, dark damage and viciousness seemed to be evaporated without leaving a single drop.

Ma Di stood in the big courtyard of Tingwei Mansion, facing the sun, closed his eyes and thought.

Xiang Chong stood behind him at some point, and said in a low voice: "General, are you really going to let Jia Chong and his family go? Don't wait for someone to intervene? Then follow this line to check?"

Qu Shang added: "Those who come to visit Jia Chong must also be investigated."

Ma Di shook his head, and said calmly: "No, he's just a small shrimp. Let him go, as well as his whole family. I already know who is behind the scenes."

Xiang Chong said with a smile: "The general is really wise and powerful. He only asked Jia Chong a word, and he realized the mastermind behind the scenes! Dare to ask the general, who is the murderer? I will personally bring people to the door to arrest, personally interrogate, and promise to deal with it." An iron case!"

"No need, I have my own opinion."

Ma Di shook his head and looked at Xiang Chong seriously, "Thank you, Mr. Xiang, for this matter. Next time you interrogate the prisoner, don't rush to torture. This case ends here, you just pretend nothing happened. "

After finishing the order, Ma Di took Qu Shang and left Tingwei's Mansion, and drove back to the General's Mansion.

On the way, Qu Shang couldn't help asking: "General, what Jia Chong said is definitely not true. Why did you let him go? In my opinion, we should continue to serve him with severe torture. If he doesn't confess, his three clans will be punished." , see if he says it or not!"

Hearing these ruthless words, Ma Di shook his head and laughed.Although physical torture and life threats can make most people confide the truth, it is not absolute. Moreover, the credibility of words spoken under severe punishment is not high.

The most important thing is that he already knows who the murderer is, so there is no need to continue to torture him.

This time, the planting plan is full of loopholes and extremely exaggerated. If you think about it with your ass, you know that it is impossible for a city gate guard to store yellow robes at home to rebel. Criticize Tingwei Xiang Chong, and even criticize him as the behind-the-scenes mentor.

However, Ma Su was not worried.

First, Jia Chong has been released, and the matter has been exposed.

Secondly, with military power in hand, who can stand against me? !

After all, a small incident of this level will not have much negative impact on him at all.

You must know that he has always had this style of "revenge for revenge", and it is understandable that he overreacted when he was assassinated.

It was precisely because of this that Fei Yi and Yang Yi were sent three thousand miles away for "ordinary minor faults".

After all, what could be more important than the general's life?

……

When it was dark, Jia Chong returned to his home in the east city of Chang'an Prefecture, an ordinary house.

He had just escaped from the brink of death, covered in scars, and put away his bewildered expression as soon as he got home, and put away his depression after losing his official position.

His state of mind is like a bird that has just escaped from the cage, breathing the free air comfortably,
In Tingwei prison, he withstood torture, induced confession, fear and panic, and calmly dealt with the interrogation from the general.

It's hard to imagine that this is the psychological quality that a good young man should have.

Thinking so, Jia Chong lay on the bed and let the old servant give him medicine.

Before the medicine was finished, Jia Chong suddenly laughed lightly. He didn't know if it was stimulated by the Dieta medicinal wine, or he was laughing at himself getting out of the cage.

"Although you dealt with it very well, it still aroused the suspicion of the general. Zhuge Liang has already returned to Chang'an. If this case is tried by him, it is almost impossible for you to hide it. I am afraid that he will notice you as soon as you open your mouth. Flaws." The old servant who was applying the medicine suddenly reminded him.

"Well, this time it's a fluke..."

Jia Chong closed his eyes, and slowly tapped the head of the bed with his fingers, making a "dang dang dang" sound.The face illuminated by the candlelight looked tired and pained.After a while, after the medicinal wine was wiped off, he seemed to have made up his mind, struggled to stand up slowly, and walked outside.

"Are you crazy? Are you still going out at this time?"

"My lord won't see you!"

The old servant's voice was full of surprise and confusion.

When Jia Chong heard his question, he stopped and said lightly, "Walk on the street."

After saying this, Jia Chong opened the door and walked out. Although his steps were staggering but firm, he quickly disappeared into the boundless darkness outside the door.

The unclosed door was half-open, and the cold wind blew in. The candle was flickering, as if it would go out at any moment, and the figures in the room also shook, and a murmured voice said: "It's okay to walk." it is good……"
