The man couldn't bear to see the bandits oppressing the people, so he volunteered to go undercover.
If someone really does say that, just say it was arranged by him.
But what he never expected was that the person who took the credit from Rong Qi Wang was actually the prince of Chen Guogong!
The person who asked Prince Chen to go to Mangcheng to suppress the bandits was General Cao Shuangying.
"You... aren't you just a traveler from Beidi City to Mong City?" Rong Qi Wang looked at Chen Ji with a puzzled look on his face.
