Sending Aides to the Provinces to Charge the Troops送從事官于各道申勅軍兵。啓
前日因臣。啓辭待各道軍務稍有頭緒從事官爲先發送申勅檢察事已爲。允下矣從事官韓浚謙今將發送于黃海平安等道使之申勅軍兵點閱粮餉考其官吏能否訪問道內民瘼及他利病之當爲罷行者有時暗行聞見一一申報以憑轉。啓拖行印信一顆給送道內堂下守令依下四道都體察使狀。啓杖六十以下自斷堂上守令申報施行宜當敢。啓
By your servant's report in days past, Your Majesty has already granted that, once the military business of the several provinces should have come a little into order, an aide be sent ahead to charge them and to inspect them.
The aide Han Jun-gyeom (韓浚謙) will now be sent to Hwanghae, Pyeongan and those provinces, to charge the soldiers and muster the army grain, to look into how well or ill their officials do, and to ask after the ills and troubles of the people within the provinces and other matters of profit and harm that ought to be dropped or carried out; and, going about in secret from time to time, to report item by item what he has seen and heard, on the strength of which he shall pass it on in a report.
It would be fitting that one seal (印信) be given him for use on his travels, and that of the magistrates within the provinces he decide of himself, as to those below the hall, in cases of sixty strokes and under, following the dispatch of the Supreme Commander of the four provinces below, and report those magistrates of the hall before acting; wherefore we venture to report.
