At that moment, the man turned his head and looked at Qin Ze, and their eyes met immediately.
"Woo woo woo." The man cried out as soon as he saw Qin Ze.
"Let him speak," Qin Ze said calmly, his expression unchanged.
Huo Qubing immediately pulled the cloth strip from the man's mouth, and as soon as it was pulled out, the middle-aged man immediately said:
"Is it the Prince of Zhenbei?"
"Nonsense! Who else could it be but the Prince? Could you find a hero like the Prince in this world?"
"Speak your mind! If you're a spy, I'll chop you into eighty-one pieces!" Dian Wei roared angrily, his eyes blazing.
Qin Ze touched his face but remained silent.
Upon hearing this, the man showed a relieved expression and said, "I have never seen Your Highness before, which is why I asked."
"My name is Sun Changgui. I have come from Xijing on the orders of the Alliance Leader to deliver a message to Your Highness."
Qin Ze raised an eyebrow. "Who?"
Sun Changgui immediately said, "The Crimson Tide Alliance! Its leader is someone the Prince knows well, the son of the current Minister of Personnel, Zhang Ye!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ze was slightly taken aback.
"Your Highness, please have someone remove my shoes. The letter I am carrying is hidden in the lining of the sole. Your Highness will know it as soon as you see it."
Dian Wei looked at Qin Ze, and Qin Ze nodded slightly.
Immediately, Dian Wei took off Sun Changgui's shoes, then gently cut open the sole with a dagger, and sure enough, found a letter hidden inside.

After a long while, once he had finished reading the letter, Qin Ze stroked his chin, a thoughtful expression on his face.
Then he said, "Let him go."
Huo Qubing slashed a few times and untied the ropes. Sun Changgui rubbed his wrists and, seeing that Qin Ze remained silent, immediately clasped his hands earnestly and said, "Your Highness, please give me an answer."
"Go back now," Qin Ze said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Sun Changgui's expression froze, and he quickly said, "Your Highness? You don't mean...?"
Qin Ze waved his hand, but said no more.
Sun Changgui's expression tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness! I know you have important matters to attend to, but now..."
Before he could finish speaking, Dian Wei roared, "Get out of here now!! If you don't leave, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Sun Changgui bit his lip, sighed, and immediately stood up and walked out.
Huo Qubing waved his hand, and a soldier led over a horse.
"The horse you rode here," Huo Qubing said.
Sun Changgui sighed inwardly, turned around and kowtowed to Qin Ze, "Thank you, Your Highness. The Alliance Leader has always said that your pure heart has never changed!"
He said no more, leaped onto his horse, and rode away...
Qin Ze rubbed his hands together; his palms were already damp with a fine layer of sweat from the fire. His gaze was fixed on the raging flames, deep and unfathomable...
