A soldier of the Qilin Army came here, saying that the military adviser Yuan Zhi had matters to attend to.
Li Guanyi promptly took his leave with the two elders.

Li Guanyi met with Yuan Zhi, who gave him another update on the current situation of the Qilin Army. The matters were complicated, with the most critical issue being the severe lack of talent in internal politics—the officials and magistrates in the cities under the Qilin Army's jurisdiction all needed to be replaced.
Those cities, having denigrated from Chen Country and Ying Country, fell within the Qilin Army's domain and hence accumulated numerous governmental affairs. For the time being, Yuan Zhi alone found it difficult to handle everything completely, not to mention the overtures of the major aristocratic families and the cases piled up in jails...
The thing Li Guanyi did the most recently was to shirk internal politics.
Then Yuan Zhi grabbed his arm and dragged him back.
