Zhao Hanzhang nodded; she also believed this, "Xuzhou is the closest to Yangzhou, and the situation is complex. Ji Yuan and Ming Yu both come from humble backgrounds. Now, among the State Governors, aside from you and Wang Dao, only he and Zu Ti have any connection with the aristocratic families. If we replace them rashly, it might cause dissatisfaction among the aristocrats. The political situation is turbulent, and I want to carefully select someone to replace them."
Zhao Ming looked at Liu Kun who was circling around Tuoba Yilu, feeling troubled, "To recall him to the Capital City, it must be a promotion. Otherwise, it will be hard to appease the aristocratic clans. But what position can he take in the Imperial Palace?"
Zhao Hanzhang replied, "There are many options. My adopted brother has a lovable character. I intend to separate the Ministry of Rites from the Court of State Ceremonial and establish a position of Grand Minister of Rites, which he will manage."
