When Rong Xuan heard that Fan Zijin wanted to set the emissary free, he looked at him in surprise. After a moment of silence, he said, "It's good to let him take the initiative to report this matter to the Emperor. Otherwise, should the matter reach the Emperor without any movement from the emissary, I'm afraid the Imperial Court will accuse General Qi of putting the messenger under house arrest and accuse us of being negligent."
Fan Zijin nodded. "But we can't let him go just like that. Brother Rong, I don't know what kind of hobbies this messenger has. The messenger is His Majesty's eyes and ears. Even if he doesn't favor us in the memorial and only speaks impartially, it's still better than us having to defend ourselves."
Rong Xuan looked at him approvingly and nodded. "Don't worry. I'll handle this myself. I won't let the general fall into danger."
