It was generally the custom for officials to be installed in their new posts in the afternoon, however, on the day when Cai Jingli took up his post, Emperor Gaozong happened to be visiting the Xuanwu Temple, and all the officials in the capital were in attendance and accompanying him, fearing that Cai Jingli would not be able to attend, the Emperor especially ordered him to be installed early in the morning, amply demonstrating the importance Emperor Gaozong attached to him.
