While Cao Jun was hurriedly fighting the fire, Liu Chan and Zhao Yun also witnessed all this in the crowd.
Liu Chan asked curiously, "Fourth Uncle, who is this general?" ”
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "This is Xiahou Shang, Xiahou Yuan's nephew, close and friendly to Cao Pi, successively served as a military commander, a general of five senses, and a ruling Jinwu. It is one of the eight heavenly kings of Cao Cao's sword house clan and one of the five protectors of the school guard, and has won the trust of Cao Cao and Cao Pi's father and son. The other four Dharma protectors are: Xiahou Jie, who is holding the Heavenly Sword, Yan Xing, the Hanhai Shark Yan Xing, who is holding the Yunling Sword, and Jiang Xu, who is holding the Glacier Sword. Among the five Dharma protector masters, the remaining four masters are all good at swords, but this seven-star soul chasing Xiahou Shang shows that it has unique advantages. ”
"I see. Look at Xiahou Shangxiong's majestic style, hugging in front and back, looking forward to self-pride, quite majestic, it seems to be very majestic! What kind of official is he? ”
Zhao Yundao: "Xiahou Shang's official position is called Zhijinwu. The Han system of water and fire thieves is not separated, fire fighting and fire fighting are not separated independently and set up a special agency, fire control and social security work is unified by the military attache Zhi Jinwu, who is the official of the imperial court responsible for defense and handling of theft and water and fire and other extraordinary events. Zhi Jinwu is responsible for patrolling, prohibiting violence, supervising rape and other tasks in the capital every day, and the guards who guard the palace are inside the palace. The rank of Zhijin Wu is 2,000 stones, and there are two Cheng and Hou and Sima 1,000 people. The subordinate officials have the middle base, the temple mutual, the arsenal, the four orders of the ship, and the Cheng. Another style of the road, left and right in the middle and Jingfu Lieutenant, also have a relationship with Zhijinwu. An arsenal is an institution for the manufacture and storage of weapons. There are prisons under the middle base, temples, and ships. The power of Jinwu was very great, and when Emperor Jing, Lieutenant Zhi had arrested the guilty King of Linjiang. It is also one of the duties of the executive to be in charge of weapons and the prison of the warden. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, the subordinate officials of the ruling Jin Wu only kept an arsenal, and the rest were reduced, and their duties were mainly to prohibit the army and protect the safety of the capital and the palace. Three times a month, he patrolled the palace to prevent and stop fires and other accidents outside the palace. ”
"This official has a great responsibility, why is it called Zhijinwu?" Liu Chanqi said.
Zhao Yundao: "Xiahou Shang is responsible for defending and dealing with extraordinary events such as theft and water and fire, and the 'Jinwu' he holds in his hand is a gilded copper rod at both ends. There are two other meanings of the word Zhijingo. First, the day should be spent, I, the royal also. Palm gold tongs, in order to resist the extraordinary. Second, Yan Shi Guyun, Jin Wu, the name of the bird is also, the lord is ominous, the Son of Heaven travels, the master of the leader, to the royal very, so the image of this bird, because of the famous official. The Imperial Doctor and the Captain of the Division can also hold this stick. The imperial history, the school captain, the guard, the order, and the commander are executed, and the wood is 'I'. ”
Liu Chan said with a smile: "This official is so majestic, is it envied by many people?" ”
"Exactly!" Zhao Yun said with a smile: "There are 200 people holding Jin Wu Tiqi, 520 people holding halberds, obeying the guides, the road is full of light, and among the bureaucrats, they are expected to be strong." At the beginning, Guangwu is suitable for Xinye, and after hearing the beauty, the heart is happy. Later, when I went to Chang'an, I saw that the Jinwu car was very prosperous, and there was a sigh of "Shi Eun as the Jinwu, and marrying a wife should be Yin Lihua", and the reason was to envy its prestige. ”
Liu Chan said with a smile: "I can't imagine that Emperor Guangwu actually said the famous saying of life ideals!" Back then, when his old man was studying in Chang'an, the imperial capital, he happened to see Zhi Jinwu walking by on the street, the scene was so spectacular and magnanimous, and he sighed greatly, so he improvised 'Shi Eun should be the ruling Jinwu, and marrying a wife should be Yin Lihua'! I expected that this sentence must have become a famous saying through the ages, widely circulated, and aroused the resonance of many heroes in troubled times in the future. And the love story of Emperor Guangwu and Yin Lihua has also been passed down through the ages! ”
Zhao Yun said with a smile: "When he was young, Emperor Guangwu was just a declining royal family and a cloth cloth, so having such an idea is also the behavior of ordinary mortals. ”
"What does this night warrior mean?" Liu Chan asked again.
"The Han system of fire officials has different fires and night soldiers. The fire officer is mainly responsible for controlling and changing the fire in the palace; The Yeshi was the Han Dynasty's messenger in charge of night affairs outside the imperial palace. It is mainly responsible for night patrols, control of lights and other matters, and prohibits people from making fires in the market at night. The main task is to patrol the police at night, urge residents to turn off the lights on time, fire hazards, and report fire alarms in time. Zhao Yun replied.
"The place where they are usually stationed is called a street pavilion." Zhao Yun pointed to a huge square building on the side of the street and said, "There is one pavilion per street in Chang'an, and there are sixteen street pavilions; Twenty-four streets in Luoyang City in the Eastern Han Dynasty, with a total of twenty-four street pavilions; There are a total of 22 street pavilions in Yecheng. The street pavilion is also called the capital pavilion, there is a drum in it, it is the place of 'convening the order', and there is a pavilion house, its building is relatively solid, there are many rooms and a large square, the army can be stationed, and the big one can be stationed thousands of people. Duting is generally a transportation hub in the city, starting from the city, or from the outside to the city, all of which start or end at the city. ”
Liu Chan secretly said, it turns out that this pavilion is equivalent to a modern police station, and Zhi Jinwu is equivalent to the head of the police department.
"Fourth uncle, do we have similar institutions in the five counties of Jingzhou?" Liu Chan said.
"The counties and cities of Jingxiang under Liu Biao's rule are all complete, but after the war, there are many wastes. Now the Zhuge military division is recovering. Zhao Yundao.
"Zhijinwu, Behuoguan, Yeshi, and Duting are all necessary institutions to govern the city, and they must be rebuilt and restored quickly." Liu Chan said foresightedly.
"Yes, yes. After going back, I have to think carefully with Zhuge Junshi to improve. Zhao Yundao.
Outside the gate of the Ma Mansion, Cao Pi looked at the sky-high fire of the Weiwei Mansion angrily, his eyes were full of fire, and his face was angry, not called Xiahou Shang Boren, but said in a deep voice: "General Xiahou, how could there be such a fire in the Ma Mansion?" ”
Xiahou Shang, who was standing beside Cao Pi, sank in his heart, his face was ugly, and he said respectfully: "Report to the five senses Zhonglang General, the cause of the fire is unknown, and the night fire officer is investigating." The rest of the officers and men under my command are performing their duties and responsibilities
to minimize losses. ”
Cao Pi's expression was slightly gloomy, and he continued to ask: "How about the casualties?" ”
"It's being counted, but it's hard to calculate because it's too chaotic. At present, there is a shortage of troops in Mafu and everyone is in danger, and we are doing our best to appease the Ma family, strive to restore normal order, and maintain a stable situation. Xiahou Shang reported cautiously.
