Editor: Nora
The military meeting in the Wuying Palace was still taking place.
Apart from the arrangements of the generals, Jia Xu was appointed to the official role of chief secretary of the Nanjiang Governor-General House.
This role originated from the Qin Dynasty. During that time, the prime minister and generals did not have chief secretaries, similar to the current secretary. The chief secretaries under the generals could lead troops to battle.
The chief secretary in history took up many roles and was mostly a behind the scenes official. Jia Xu would be more like his chief of staff and would help Ouyang Shuo manage the domestic affairs of the Nanjiang Governor-General House.
