"Good morning, Captain."

"Good morning, Captain."

Li Xun walked into the Governor's Mansion. Along the way, many people who saw him smiled and said hello. Li Xun also smiled and nodded in return. According to the rules, Li Xun, as the chief officer of the Governor's Mansion, was three levels lower than him.

The above officials had to bow and salute when they saw him, but Li Xun had a very easy-going personality and didn't care about these false courtesy. These officials had been here for more than half a month. After getting familiar with Li Xun, they got to know their own governor.

Because of his personality, he is more open-minded. In informal situations, when everyone meets, they just smile and nod and say hello, which is very casual.

With the arrival of fifteen officials, the Governor's Mansion became lively. At least it was no longer as lifeless as when he first arrived. Li Xun couldn't find anyone he wanted to discuss matters with.

Walking into the main room of the Governor's Mansion, an old man over sixty years old was sitting at the table, quietly looking at the documents in his hands. Fan Zhongyun was beside him, grabbing tea and pouring water for him.

"Sima, don't drive. What are you looking at? I don't feel very good."

Li Xun found a chair to sit down and said with a smile.

This old man is none other than Sima Zhong, who is considered a famous person in the Jin Dynasty. During the White Turban Rebellion in the 15th year of Guangyuan, it was he who defended Jinyang City, an important town in Hedong, for more than 40 days with weak soldiers.

, successfully blocked the White Scarf Army's advance towards Fengjing, bought valuable time for the court, and finally completely reversed the entire war situation.

The prefectures are divided into upper, middle and lower levels, and the governors have different grades. The governor's office is also divided into upper, middle and lower levels, and the grades are also different.

The governor of Shangzhou is the fourth rank, and his subordinates include one official, the fourth rank, the chief historian, the fifth rank, two Sima officials, the fifth rank, and several officials who record affairs, the sixth rank. In addition, there are Si Gong and Si

There are seven chief ministers, including Cang, Sihu, Sitian, Sibing, Judicial, and Sishi, all of whom are seven-rank officials. There are also city magistrates, ministers, doctors of literature, and doctors of medicine.

The governor of Zhongzhou has the fourth rank, and the governor of Xiazhou has the fifth rank. His assistant officers are the same as those of Shangzhou, but not all of them. There are no separate posts for Zhongzhou and Xiazhou, and the rest of the officials are the same.

The Jin Dynasty was founded for more than 400 years. The country's situation fluctuated with the domestic political situation and civil affairs. Although it fluctuated from time to time, its military power was always strong. Wars with foreign countries often occurred. The imperial court rewarded generals with military merit very generously.

As a result, the status of generals has always been high, so the status and standards of local military governors and governor's offices are much higher than those of governor's offices in charge of local government affairs.

Before Emperor Wu Zong, the chief officer of the Dadu Prefecture, which was in charge of a dynasty, was from the second rank, which was one level higher than the Jiedu Envoy. It was the same status and level as the Right Minister of the Six Ministries of the Central Dynasty, and one level lower than Shangzhou.

The Central Governor's Office established in strategically important places is also a high-ranking official of the third rank, and the Lower Governor's Office, the lowest level, is a fourth-rank official, which is the same level as the local governor.

During the Wu Zong Dynasty, a large-scale restructuring was carried out, in which military positions were greatly suppressed. The rank of the chief officer of the Governor's Mansion remained unchanged and was still the second grade. However, from then on, the position of Governor was no longer permanent. In the event of war,

, the imperial court appointed a governor to lead troops on expeditions, but he did not have the right to establish a governor. After the war was over and he returned to the court, his position as governor would be dismissed immediately. In some places, although a governor's office was established, there was no governor.

For example, in the current Longyou Road, the chief officer of the Governor's Office of Longyou Road is King Yaoling of Qi. He himself cannot come to take up the post, so this position has become a false position without any real power. Instead, it is a junior high official.

The chief official of the Dudu's Mansion became the highest official in charge of the entire Dudu's Mansion.

The grades of officials at all levels in the Central Governor's Office and the Lower Governor's Office were reduced by one level each, and the allocation of officials and troops was also somewhat compressed.

Another step is to strip away the supervisory power of the generals. In the past, the governor of a state often served as the observer, or the chief of the governor's office also served as the observer. But no matter what, the supervisory power still lies with the governor's office.

During the Wuzong restructuring, this power was stripped out. On the basis of the observation envoy, the post of military supervisor was added. The central army was directly under the imperial court to go out to fight, and the military supervisor was used to restrict and supervise the leading generals. At the local level,

The local governor also serves as the observer, and controls and supervises the local governor's office. Between the two, the military supervisor is generally held by the emperor's confidants. Although it is a temporary position, it represents the power of the emperor, that is, the court.

The status is much higher than that of the observer. Of course, it is very rare for Wu Heng, the governor of Wuzhou, to concurrently serve as the supervisor of the army with the position of local governor. However, from another aspect, it can be guessed that the supervisor of the army is temporary.

The position of military observer is long-term. Wu Heng is obviously not Zhao Zhi's confidant, but Zhao Zhi gave him the position of military supervisor. You can understand the calculation behind it if you think about it.

Wuzhou is Shangzhou. During the rule of the Dashu people, in their eyes, it might just be a relatively large state. However, in the Jin Dynasty, it was a very important frontier strategic area. Like Li Xun's governor's mansion, it belonged to

Zhongdudu Mansion, the configuration of official positions, there is one governor, the fourth rank, one Biejia, the fourth rank, the chief historian, the fifth rank, one Sima, the fifth rank, two people who record affairs and military affairs, the sixth rank, the number of records

People are of the seventh rank. One person each is a meritorious officer, Cangcao is involved in military affairs, Hucao is involved in military affairs, Tiancao is involved in military affairs, Bingcao is involved in military affairs, Facao is involved in military affairs, and Shicaocao is involved in military affairs. From the seventh rank, the rest are involved in military affairs, clerical work, etc., and below the seventh rank.
