Although the road was bumpy, Shang Ling seemed to have known it for a long time, and sat quietly in the prisoner car.

Before coming to the mansion, a touch of sunlight was incorporated into the prisoner car, making Shang Ling's eyes squint slightly, and it was easy to adapt to the sunshine.

Then, Feng Kai opened the prisoner cart and said to him, "Come down." ”

"This is here?" Shang Ling's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked around with doubt.

The place where he was was not a prison cell, but an autumn garden, where the green trees were blown by the breeze, the leaves rustled with each other, and the autumn chrysanthemums bloomed on the ground, and in the distance on the wooden bench sat a man with a book in his hand, reading with relish.

"My lord wants to ask you something, and I hope you can answer seriously. Feng Kai pointed at Du Yangui and stepped back.

Shang Ling was slightly stunned in his heart, and thought in his heart: "It turns out that he is Du Yangui?"

"That's right. Just looking at you, you seem to be surprised? Could it be that you are afraid of me?" Putting down the book in his hand, Du Yangui raised his head and carefully examined the person in front of him.

Although the clothes were covered with pudding, they were washed cleanly, and the slightly chubby face probably looked a little dull because of the long exposure to the sun, which was in line with Shang Ling's own down-and-out businessman's temperament.

Shang Ling hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "Du Zhizhou's willingness to meet is already a great honor in my life, how dare I offend." ”

"Alas. Why do you businessmen always say this kind of polite words?Could it be that when you face me, you don't dare to tell the truth?" Du Yangui chuckled, and then stood up from the wooden bench and walked in front of Shang Ling.

Shang Ling was stunned, and said, "Tell me, Du Zhizhou, I really don't know where I said it wrong?"

"Alas. For example, about refugees outside the city?" Du Yangui frowned slightly, a little unhappy with Shang Ling's attitude, and asked casually, of course, his eyes were also locked on the other party, wanting to see some clues.

"Difficult, refugee?"

Shang Ling's whole body froze completely, and he pulled the corners of his mouth, probably trying to laugh, but this smile was too stiff.

"Since Du Zhizhou has formulated the current policy, he must have his own considerations, and he is just an outsider, how to put his beak?"

"Hmph. ”

Du Yangui was annoyed after all, and shouted at Shang Ling: "You businessmen, how can you have these skills of fooling around and pulling around? Don't think that relying on these lip syncs can make me change my mind." If you really want to change, you might as well just tell me. Save yourself from playing around with those tricks all day long. Don't forget, this is the territory of the Huaxia Army, put away your tricks against those Song Dynasty officials. ”

"Du Zhizhou. I don't really understand what you're talking about, can you explain it directly?" Shang Ling continued to sneer with a shy face.

He seems to have developed a pattern of how to deal with the anger of officials.

Du Yangui couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately said, "Of course it's about refugees." If you are not satisfied with my policy, you can tell me directly, and if there is something wrong, of course I will change it. But what is the reason for you to incite the homeless people to make trouble, and even to unite with Manichaeism, and even to create trouble in my city?"

With a "plop", Shang Ling seemed to be stunned, and the whole person knelt on the ground.

He shouted in his mouth, tears and snot came out together, and he kowtowed again and again, begging in the middle of his mouth: "This, this." Du Zhizhou, I really haven't done these things in the next place, and I still ask Lord Zhizhou to discern it. ”

This kind of behavior appeared in a person like him in his fifties and sixties, which made people feel sad to watch.

"Have you not done it? Do you have any evidence, how to prove that you didn't do it?" Du Yangui sneered: "And do you know why you were arrested?"

Of course, he knew that Shang Ling might not have been involved in these things, and the reason why he said this was just to deceive the other party and let the other party calm down, so that he could get the information he needed.

"I really don't know about this. Shang Ling lowered his head, until now he didn't know why he was arrested.

Du Yangui then said: "Of course, it's because of your son." Do you know what he did yesterday? He secretly attacked Wang Dezhao. And that Wang Dezhao is the only heir of Wang Dashan, who was exterminated by Manichaeism, and he actually attacked this person, do you think he should be arrested? It's a pity that we haven't found him, so we can only ask you to come over. ”

When Du Yangui said "please", his tone was obviously aggravated.

Shang Ling's eyes were full of incredulity, and he denied it again and again: "This is impossible, this is not true. My son, Shang Yi, couldn't have done such a thing. ”

"Why isn't it true? My subordinate Feng Kai saw it with his own eyes, do you think he is lying?" Du Yangui interrupted.

"This ...... I ......"

Shang Ling was stunned for a moment, he muttered in his mouth, as if he still wanted to defend himself, but in the face of conclusive evidence, he could only bow his head and accept his fate.

Du Yangui sneered and replied: "Oh? Look at you like this, haven't you already confessed your guilt? If that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless and treating you for the sin of not being strict with your godson and disturbing society." When the time comes, you don't have to hate me, you know? Of course, if you have any news about your son, you'd better tell me as well. As the governor of Junzhou, how can I do things and murderers get away with it?"

"But my son couldn't have done such a thing. ”

Shang Ling's eyes showed a hint of perseverance, and he suddenly opened his mouth to argue.

Du Yangui snorted lightly and said, "Impossible? Then why did he attack Wang Dezhao and hide his identity?"

"This, maybe there is something else to hide, in short, my son can't do such a thing. Although he knew that the other party's status was noble, Shang Ling didn't know where he got the courage at the moment, and he always gritted his teeth.

Du Yangui sneered: "Impossible? Then you have to at least come up with evidence, don't you? Otherwise, how can I convince the public?"

"If I tell you, what about the hiding place of the Manichaeism and its master, can you spare my son?" Shang Ling's eyes flashed with determination, and then he raised his head and stared at Du Yangui deadly.

"Manichaeism?"

Du Yangui pondered for a moment before he said, "If you are really willing to cooperate with our work and tell us who the Manichaean sect and the people behind it are who they are, maybe I can help you talk about it." But if you hide something, don't blame me for being rude. ”

Shang Ling wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly closed his head and asked, "Of course, of course." ”

"Of course. Du Yangui couldn't deny it, and he was also very happy in his heart.

Looking at Shang Ling like this, even if he didn't get involved in it, he also knew a thing or two, if he could get some information from him, maybe he could find the hiding place of the Manichaean religion.

Shang Ling took a deep breath before he complained, "As far as I know, the current leader of this Manichaeism has been replaced by Ding Bo. And now he is my son's master. Perhaps, my son was also deceived by him to do this kind of thing. ”

"Ding Bo, since you already knew, why didn't you say it earlier?" Du Yangui read for a moment, and Yan Shen, who was slightly reproachful, glared at Shang Ling.

Shang Ling smiled bitterly: "That's right. I didn't know his identity at first, but it was only later that I saw him often meet with some people in the rivers and lakes, and I learned his secret. It was only because I was afraid that he would hurt my family that I kept it a secret until now. ”

"So that's the case, so do you know where Ding Bo is now?" Du Yangui asked again.

Shang Ling shook his head and said helplessly: "This, he has always been haunted, and I don't know where he is!"
