It is estimated that some officials want to ask strangely, can the imperial edict be written incorrectly? Su Songdao clearly belongs to the Jiangnan region of Nanzhili, but how could Lord Chen's patrol official title be from the Zhejiang Inspectorate?

There's nothing wrong with that. With the official system of the national dynasty, the north and south are directly subordinate to the two divisions, the secretary of the political envoy and the secretary of the procuratorate, and when it is necessary to dispatch the guardian and patrol officers who should belong to the two divisions, the system of sending titles to neighboring provinces is adopted. Beizhili is in Shandong, and Jiangnan is in Zhejiang, so the official title of Lord Chen will be Zhejiang according to the inspection of the envoy department, not a typo.

There is also another situation, if someone like Zhao Liangyi hangs up in the Nanjing Ministry, he doesn't need to go to Zhejiang to post his title.

Why did Master Chen become Li You's top boss again? It starts with his official position. The Department of Procuratorial Envoys is responsible for the impeachment of criminal names, and the chief officer of the third rank is responsible for the deputy envoy of the fourth rank and the deputy envoy of the fifth rank under the probationary envoy, and can serve as a patrol officer and be responsible for the relevant affairs of a certain area.

And the Suzhou Prefecture magistrate where Li You served was also in charge of the criminal prison case in his own government, which was directly in line with the business of the Inspectorate Division, and it happened to be the patrol officer. That's why Lord Chen will put on a show and wait for Li Tuiguan to come to pay homage.

At this time, the shock in Li You's heart was difficult to describe in words, and Lord Chen's promotion was a bit exaggerated. He himself went from the ninth rank to the seventh grade, and on the surface, he was promoted by two levels, but it was actually nothing. The promotion of low-grade official positions was originally a random surname, and in the case that many people were first awarded the seventh grade, the promotion from the ninth rank miscellaneous position to the seventh rank of the second official is not so eye-catching, and it can be regarded as the threshold of Li You's entry into the real officialdom.

But since the seventh grade, the procedures and rules have been very strict, and it is very rare to be promoted to a higher rank. Even if you are the champion Wenqu Xing, under normal circumstances, you have to climb up one level at a time from the sixth grade. I remember that in the early years of the Dynasty, several Niucha county commanders were directly promoted to prefects, but it is absolutely impossible in this year when the civil government system is very mature.

And someone Chen actually jumped from the seventh grade to the fifth grade at once, which is simply ten years less struggle... The champion of the same department as him is still only a six-grade cultivator in the Hanlin Academy.

Li You felt that people were more popular than people, could this be the power of a respected and well-known celestial official? But even if theoretically, Xu Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials can decide on his own whether to promote or stay officials below the fourth rank in other places, how dare he so blatantly promote Chen Yingzhen? The whole court is blind and pretends not to see?

It's really suspicious, Li You thinks about it, it's still the same sentence, I don't know how many shady scenes there are behind this... Either way, it's not a bad thing for him. If Zhao Liangyi becomes a guard again, then he Li Tuiguan will have thick "legs" in Suzhou Mansion.

Master Huang stepped forward and said to Master Chen, "Congratulations to the proprietor on his ascension." ”

Li You stopped thinking nonsense, and also stepped forward to pay homage and say goodbye, but when he was about to open his mouth, he got stuck.

As mentioned earlier, in the officialdom, the boss is often called by aliases and honorific titles, and the official name is rarely used for the sake of the government.

But what should I call the patrol road according to the inspection of affairs? There is no such knowledge in the books, and Li You, who is a rookie in this regard, really doesn't know, he can't learn to call the proprietor from Master Huang... Li You couldn't help but gesture and asked Master Huang for help.

Over there, Master Huang made a mouth shape, and it seemed to be the pronunciation of eye feces in Li You's eyes... When he was in a dilemma, someone whispered "Lian Envoy" beside Li You at this time, but it was Hong Patrol who came to report the good news.

"The subordinate officials see the incorruptible envoy." Li You finally completed the worship ceremony.

Out of the county government, without Chen Xundao as a comparison, Li You regained the joy of his promotion to the official, this is the seventh grade of real power, the same level as the county master, and the Li family can be regarded as a rural eunuch in Xujiang County in the future.

The reason why Li You is so fond of the position of promoter that he lost his temper in front of people is not only because of the promotion of quality, but also for other reasons.

The position of the official has a special aura, and it is one of the first official positions of the new branch jinshi stipulated by the imperial court, just like the magistrate, the chief officer, the imperial history, the middle of the matter, and the middle scholar. In other words, the push officer has the aura of a jinshi, so he is a special one compared to other miscellaneous officials.

It is said that after so many years of imperial examinations, it is impossible for each subject to be arranged to become a Beijing official, and there are not so many pits; If they are all appointed as magistrates, there are not so many good places to elect officials, and the remote and poor county jinshi are reluctant to go, otherwise what are they doing with their hard work. Later, the imperial court issued a new policy, and the top three jinshi who were not ranked high could be sent to serve as government officials to get close to the people.

Although Li You knew that he would never be born as a Jinshi in his life, it did not prevent him from being complacent because he could be a pusher like a Jinshi.

In the future, if someone sees that the official is young and promising, and misunderstands that the Jinshi asks about the chronology, how should he explain it? Li You couldn't help but have this happy trouble. In a good mood, he didn't forget to patrol Hong, and said approvingly: "Thank you for reminding him." ”

"It's all a small matter, and adults don't need to care." Hong Patrol said flatteringly.

In fact, in the power structure of the government office, the main task of the magistrate is to try the case, although he can also command the patrol to arrest people, but after all, the official person in charge of the patrol and arrest of public security is generally the general judgment, and when the general judgment has no weight, there is also the prefect. To use an analogy from the situation in the 21st century, the magistrate is more like the role of a court president than a police chief.

Then why did Hong Patrol drive hundreds of miles to fight Li You?

First, Li You is a local official, and other officials will be left after a few years, only Li You has the ability to maintain influence all the time, and it is worth investing.

Second, he heard Wang Tongzhi say in the government that there is a serious shortage of officials in the bureau now, and he plans to ask Li You, the official to handle the patrol and arrest. also uses the analogy of the situation in the 21st century, such a pusher has become the role of the secretary of the political and legal committee who has the power of the public procuratorate and the law in one, so he is similar to the captain of the brigade Hong Patrol arrest dare not stutter?

Li You didn't say anything all the way home, but when he arrived at the alley, he saw that it was crowded and crowded, blocking the door of his house.

Seeing Li You, someone in the crowd shouted, "Master Tuiguan is back!" ”

Hong Patrol took the initiative to take the lead, shouting loudly to open a way out of the crowd.

Li You approached the gate, but saw Zhang hanging with good news, with a big character on it: "Flying News: Your Mansion Master Li Gaosheng Mansion Pushes the Official's Order!" ”

It turned out that this was the official report from the newspaperman, and Hong Patrol reported the good news to Li You purely in private.

I also saw Father Li commanding the servants to carry baskets, which were full of copper coins that I didn't know where to get them. When the basket was put down, the servants grabbed a lot of copper coins and threw them into the pile, causing everyone to grab the happy money, and it was a lively scene.

Throughout the afternoon, the Li family flowed endlessly, and there was an endless stream of visitors, making the people tired and miserable. The lobby was so crowded that it was impossible to get in, so it stood in the middle of the courtyard, which was full, and gathered at the gate.

The county's leading figures, as long as they thought they were qualified, came to visit Dao He at Li's house, and even a few officialdom old-timers who lived in seclusion at home came to pay their respects to Li Tuiguan.

Li You's place is even much more lively than Chen Xundao's. After all, Lord Chen is an outsider in the eyes of the people of Xujiang County, and Li You is his own person.

Looking for a vacancy, Li's father sighed to Li You: "It's like a dream, and I have no regrets in my father's life!" ”

Li You was taken aback by his father's abnormal tone, and said hurriedly: "For the sake of his son's reputation, my father must not also become a monk!" ”

Hong Xunzhuo, who was helping to entertain the guests on the side, wondered why he said "also" to become a monk?

At night, Li You did not sleep at home. He got on a night sailing ship, rushed to Fucheng overnight, and hurriedly took over the order to officially take office.
