The four departments have clearly defined responsibilities and can only manage their respective affairs; they are absolutely not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the imperial court and local governments.

At the same time, eunuchs were dispatched from the inner court to various departments of the Four Offices to supervise daily affairs.

The Royal Trading Company will dispatch personnel to be responsible for the daily finances of the four departments.

The imperial court, local governments, and garrison troops also need to actively cooperate with the reasonable allocation of resources among the four agencies.

The officials did not raise any objection to the emperor placing the powers of the four departments within the Secretariat and the inner court.

After all, the students of the three academies are all the emperor's people. Even if they intervene, they will definitely be sidelined, and they don't have the ability or technology to manage them.

Those are merely executive bodies, without the authority to formulate corresponding policies and laws, and do not conflict with the ruling rights of the officials.

Furthermore, as the four departments grow stronger, the Royal Trading Company will also grow stronger, and the benefits for them are self-evident.

Liu Hong also completely controlled the personnel and finances of the four newly established agencies.

Soon, the imperial court issued a series of related orders and appointments.

With this, the four reforms were finally discussed and agreed upon.

Liu Hong also showed a relaxed smile.

With the establishment of the four newly created agencies and the clear division of their powers, once these four agencies come into play, the official system reforms that he has been planning for a long time will be able to be implemented without any obstacles.

The officials in the hall also felt a sense of relief. Now that all matters had been discussed, they only needed to return to their posts and carry out the new policies step by step.

While they were celebrating, Yang Ci, who was then the Grand Herald, also quickly bowed to Liu Hong.

"Your Majesty, now that everything is settled, the Xianbei envoy has been waiting outside the palace for over a day. I wonder if we shall grant him an audience?"

"Hmm? Are they still waiting?"

Upon hearing Yang Ci's words, Liu Hong, sitting on the throne, finally remembered the Xianbei people.
