Li Xianyun arranged for the numerous affairs of the Department of Equipment, then set off for Shitoutun with Zhuo Ma, Youlan, and Bater in tow.
The three women sat in the carriage, with Bater driving the carriage as usual.
Li Xianyun looked at Zhuo Ma and said, "Zhuo Ma, what if you take full charge of the honey preserve workshop?"

It would be better to delegate tasks to trusted individuals, while she oversaw the bigger picture—for the outcomes were likely to be better that way.
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Ma's eyes were filled with surprise.
She had been sold into the palace by her parents at a young age, serving others, unable to decide for herself.
