"Rest assured, My Minister, I do not intend to send someone to supervise the merchant troop. However, the troop is currently too weak and must be strengthened. I plan to supplement it with talents and hands. As for the speaking rights, they will remain in your hands. Those sent will be under Zhao Erhu's management, following his commands. Anyone who disobeys Zhao Erhu can be dealt with directly by him."
Since Huangfu Jing had decided to get involved, he naturally aimed to go big. Small-time operations weren't worth it. As for putting the management in the hands of Zhao Erhu instead of Feng Yinan, firstly, it was Zhao Erhu who was actually implementing and handling these matters. Secondly, Feng Yinan was the Princely Heir of Marquis of Zhenbei, and it was impossible for the Emperor to trust him completely. Therefore, it felt safer to entrust the task to Zhao Erhu, a civilian without an official title, to avoid any potential trouble.
