7. The prefectural order is the tax collector

This pacification of Zhaozhou is a good start.

"Then Your Majesty will wait for news from Ziqing and Biansong."

The emperor even said yes, and then he said to Gao Yue, although Gao Lang is no longer carrying the pen to the Jinluan Hall for the time being, but every three or five days, I still have to summon you to discuss various affairs and how to deal with them.

In the afternoon, Gao Yue returned to the political affairs hall and had dinner with several other prime ministers, first thanking Jia Tan, Lu Zhen, and Du Huangshang, who each shared the affairs of Shangshu Province when he wrote the Jinluan Palace, so that the imperial court ran smoothly.

The three of them also returned the salute, Jia Tan was a humble gentleman with no desire for power, as an elder-level figure, what he could do was to "prepare his position" and provide appropriate assistance;

Du Huangshang is generally regarded as Gao Yue's ally, when he is in charge of household affairs, he and Gao Yue dock the most times, and cooperate happily with each other, in the future, what Du Huangshang thinks about is to wait for Gao Yue to return to a certain Dafang Town, he will be promoted to Zhongshu Lang Pingzhangshi, and also come to assist the Son of Heaven and balance the world;

And Lu Zhen is Gao Yue's friend, although his political views sometimes disagree, but he can plan for the whole world, and now he is preparing for the next year's tribute examination, selecting talents for the country, and cultivating future generations, which is also what Lu Zhen is most concerned about.

Now, in fact, the central mechanism of the entire imperial court has evolved again.

Gao Yue, as the first scholar and prime minister, has since written Jin Luan, and the emperor has been side by side with the emperor to cut off military and state affairs, which is a foregone conclusion;

The other three prime ministers are presiding over the standing work and are progressing to the role of administrative officials.

After the dinner, Gao Yue did not need to go to the Jinluan Palace to be on duty, because the temporary organization against the rebellion in Zhaozhou had been dissolved, and he rarely had half a day of leisure, so he couldn't wait to ride a horse and return to his house in Xuanpingfang.

After all, the biggest advantage of being a decision-maker is that you don't have to be entangled in cumbersome government affairs.

In the evening, Yun Shao was sitting in front of the desk, writing a letter to Xingyuan.

This letter is for Yun He, who lives in seclusion in Lujiaozhuang to "recuperate", and there is also a letter for Xue Tao.

"It's time for the exam class to be withdrawn this year, right?" On the other side of the curtain, Gao Yue was sitting on the bed, looking at Da'er and Jiong'er, and Weiru playing with the ball, so he asked his wife.

"Exactly, that's why I wrote to Xue Xiaoshu of Xingyuan Mansion." Yun Shao replied.

Han Yu took the initiative to ask to go to Changze County, Xia Prefecture, which had just been pacified, as the county commander, so the emperor was very moved, so he did not let him keep the election (Tang system, Jinshi and the queen could not be directly officials, they had to be elected for three years, and then participated in the election of the officials before they could be awarded an official position. Since he directly became the county commander, Han Yu's performance is within the scope of the "examination class" of his boss and the imperial court.

However, this is what makes Gao Yue worry about Han Yue.

When he went to Baili to serve as the county magistrate, camping fields, building cities, and recruiting exiles were all very effective, so they were above average in the exam.

Of course, at that time, the top boss Zhu Zhu was really good to him, after all, the preliminary assessment results of local officials were in the hands of a festival envoy like Zhu Zhu, Zhu Zhu said that he was excellent, and others could not refute it.

That is to say, the official examination of the Tang Dynasty was divided into two parts: Beijing officials and foreign officials, and the Beijing officials were directly responsible for the school examination envoys, but for a county order like Han Yu, the first person to take his examination was the assassin history of the upper level. The history of the assassin has to inspect the counties under his jurisdiction every year, that is, to see the work of the county order (as for the history of the assassin himself, he also has to take the exam, and it is under the control of the observation envoy and the section degree envoy at a higher level), and then the assassin will take the county order examination situation, and the county order itself writes the "examination form" (self-summary), and initially form an opinion and report it to the observation or section degree envoy, and then observe or make the festival degree audited, make a file, and then hand it over to the Jinju Academy (in the early Tang Dynasty, it was the court collection envoy), and finally the school examination envoy appointed by the imperial court determined the grade of the examination.

As for the examination standards of the county order, there is a lot of talk in the book, such as the first place in the "Hundred Official Chronicles", that is, "guiding the weather, investigating the grievances, and listening to prison lawsuits", and then there is the work effect of "Mintian receiving and awarding", but this is just something recorded on paper, it is the idealized of official affairs in ancient China, that is, the so-called "idealized" expression, in fact, the central government of all dynasties and dynasties is most concerned about the performance of local officials, whether they can collect taxes, whether they can be thorned into history, or county orders. In the eyes of the central government, they are actually tax collectors, that is, tax collectors.

It's like when Gao Yue was the county commander, he solved the problem of food for the army, and also got a lot of horses, which to a certain extent is equivalent to overfulfilling the task of taxation, in different forms.

Therefore, for the county order, the most fundamental work is two kinds, one is tax collection, and the other is household registration management. As for the affairs of customs and judgments, they are all "side matters", and its role in the career of county officials probably only exists in the same idealized interpretation text.

Emperor Daizong once issued an edict, which talked about the order of "efficiency" of the assassin history and the county order, that is, "recruiting exiles, paying taxes equally, increasing household registration, expanding the fields, and clearing the festival well-known", and those who are effective can be "super-qualified".

Look, the Qing Festival is the last, and the hukou and taxes are the first, can attract the exiled population, can increase the tax base, can also have more manpower to open up wasteland, feed more hukou, collect more taxes, thus forming a virtuous circle, is the court is most happy to see.

The edict issued by the current emperor is even more obvious, "The household registration is increased, the assassination history is increased, the county order is reduced, and the punishment is preferred." "Assassins can be promoted, and county orders can also reduce the number of years of election after the end of the term.

"I don't know if he can appreciate the spirit of the imperial edict?" Gao Yue pondered.

And Yun Shao was full of joy, she couldn't manage it that far, she felt that Han Yue was loyal and reliable, and his literary talent was outstanding, and he had just become the Ming Mansion of a county, and Xue Tao was naturally the most matched, so he tried his best to match in the letter, and said to Xue Tao that as long as he retired from the examination class was excellent, he could not wait for the end of the fourth examination (year) of the term, and he could be promoted to a member of the department, or the imperial history of Xiantai, and then he could go to the big county of Gyeonggi to be the slaughter, and then he could return to Beijing as Langzhong smoothly, and then move to the level of the minister.

In terms of doors, you two don't have to dislike each other, because there is nothing to talk about.

Getting married early and helping each other is the right way.

That's right, sometimes Yun Shao speaks, it's just so straight.

The couple's thinking was not on a route, and after Yun Shao sealed the envelope, they got up and saw the civet of Frosted Biluo, who appeared behind the curtain at some point, looking at the owner in a daze, meowing non-stop, wanting to get closer, but not wanting to be touched by Gundam, Gao Jiong or Gao Weiru.

"Qingqing, I really want to touch the frosting." Yun Shao was overjoyed and begged her husband.

So Gao Yue raised a bell from the desk and shook it twice, which was the signal he had prescribed.

Frosting Biluo could only frown, reluctantly stepped out of the snow-white four, and came to the master's desk a few times.
