After meeting with Fang Ying, Li Xuan didn't even inspect the front lines at Huayin and the Pingyang Government. Instead, he returned to the Capital City.
In the past three months, although it could be said that the politics within The Court were clear and everything was proceeding smoothly,
Li Xuan had already clashed with several regent ministers, led by the Grand Secretary Chen Xun, particularly in personnel matters.
Li Xuan was determined to reform the Great Jin Dynasty and eliminate the longstanding malpractices of the dynasty.

Therefore, before implementing new policies, Li Xuan needed to master a team of bureaucrats who were enlightened, competent, and hardworking.
