Maybe in the eyes of outsiders, Huo Guang, the team of Chang'an County, is extremely immature, but Huo Guang knows in his heart that none of these people behind him are idle people, if anyone really thinks that these people are young and easy to bully, it can only be that person who looks away.

Because under Huo Guang's young appearance, he is actually an extremely mature soul!

Huo Guang came to the Chang'an County Ya with his team that had just formed a prototype, and there were already dozens of people standing outside the county Ya at this moment, but fortunately, there was also a large open space in front of the county Ya, and these people appeared here without crowding.

"Zhang Ji, the subordinate of Chang'an County, led the county officials to greet Lord Shi Cheng and the county commander!" Among the officials under Chang'an County, a man in his forties stepped out of the crowd and bowed to Nei Shicheng and Huo Guang.

Huo Guang has never heard of the name Zhang Ji, and there is no such number one person in this period in the history books, Huo Guang estimates that this Zhang Ji should be an ordinary small official. It's just that I don't know yet, whether this Zhang Ji will be of the same mind as Huo Guang in the future, but Huo Guang is not too worried about this, is it difficult for him to clean up a county Cheng with a dignified Chang'an order?

"Excuse me, this official is ordered by Lord Neishi to send Lord Huo Guanghuo to take office in Chang'an, and you will do your best to assist Lord Huo in the future, and do your best for the prosperity of my Han Dynasty! The official has to go back to restore his life, so he won't go in. Huo County ordered me to leave first! Nei Shicheng sent Huo Guang to the gate of the Chang'an County Yamen and planned to go back directly, he was just a routine business, but now as soon as Huo Guang's appointment was announced in front of the county officials, he handed over the errand.

"Adults go slowly, and the official will visit the house another day!" Huo Guang said politely, it's not that he really wants to visit this Nei Shicheng, but the polite words of officialdom still have to be said.

"Chang'an Ling is polite, if you need anything, you can come to me. Let's take my leave! "Nei Shi Cheng's level is the same as Chang'an Ling, plus he also knows Huo Guang's identity, so this Nei Shi Cheng is very polite to Huo Guang.

After Nei Shi Cheng left, Huo Guang walked into the Chang'an County Ya surrounded by the county Cheng and a group of subordinates. Chang'an County Ya is a very old house, built in the Gaozu period, because the size of the county Ya also has strict regulations, so Chang'an County Ya is not big, add up to only more than 30 houses, among which there is a main hall, and then on both sides there are Hu Cao, Fa Cao, Bing Cao, Cao Cao, Cang Cao, a total of five Cao in charge of various affairs of Chang'an County's subordinate institutions. There are also several storerooms for storing torture instruments, weapons, and documents.

Huo Guang walked into the main hall, and he found that the county government in the Western Han Dynasty was completely different from the county government in the Ming and Qing dynasties on TV in later generations. There is no high plaque in this main hall, but there are several cases in the middle of the main hall, but these cases are not the very high long tables of later generations, but a few cases used for kneeling and sitting, and it seems that the county order office still kneels on the ground.

"My lord, this is the official seal of the Chang'an Order and the list of county officials, please take a look." Huo Guang walked into the main hall, and Zhang Ji, the county magistrate, ordered the two of them to take out a wooden box and a bamboo slip.

"Prolong the years, put things away. Let me introduce to you, this is Du Yannian, and he will be the main book of this official in the future. There is also Li Ling, a county lieutenant appointed by the imperial court, and I hope you will work together to do a good job in the future. Huo Guang took a look at the east and west of the main hall, and asked Du Yannian to put away the official seal and roster.

The official seal of the Chang'an order is not like the official seal of Huo Guang Zhucao's servants, which can be carried at any time, and the official seal of the county order has administrative authority, and almost every official document of the county government must be used, so this official seal does not change with the appointment and dismissal of officials.

"Alright, let's all go back to work. Li Duwei also went to familiarize himself with your scope of duties, and Zhang Ji, you went around with the officer. Huo Guang ordered everyone to return to their posts to work, and Li Ling was also newly appointed, and the county lieutenant was responsible for arresting thieves and maintaining law and order, and there were many things, so Huo Guang asked Li Ling to familiarize himself with it first.

Before coming, Huo Guang had already learned a lot, and in fact, it was not hard to be a county magistrate. Because the Xing Prison case in the Western Han Dynasty was actually handled by the county Cheng, and the general trivial matters were managed separately by the five Caos, plus a county lieutenant to lead the government and take charge of the security and arrest of thieves, so that the county order actually had nothing to do.

Accompanied by Zhang Ji, Huo Guang first familiarized himself with the environment in the county office, at least to know what every place in the county government was for. During the conversation, Huo Guang gradually got to know Zhang Ji a little. This person's ancestral home is from Hanoi County, and he was originally the magistrate of Hanoi County, but later I don't know why, after the new Hanoi County Taishou Wang Wenshu took office, Zhang Ji was transferred and appointed as Chang'an County Cheng.

Speaking of which, this Zhang Ji can be regarded as promoted, because the Han system of large counties is the order, and the small county is the chief. And this county has only more than 2,000 households, which is the smallest county, and the county magistrate of Yi County is also the lowest county magistrate of 300 stones, while Chang'an County Cheng is an official of 400 stones.

However, Huo Guang found that Zhang Ji's words were ominous when talking about Hanoi County, especially when he mentioned Wang Wenshu. For Wen Shu, the Taishou King of Hanoi, Huo Guang has also heard of it. Speaking of which, this is also a cool official who Zhang Tang picked up with one hand, but this Wang Wenshu is a mercenary and unscrupulous person. Now, although the Hanoi county he governs is peaceful on the surface, he has complained in private. However, because this Wang Wenshu has done enough face-saving kung fu, even Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has praised him a lot, so now many Taishou Duwei have followed his behavior and opened a killing ring in the territory to kill Liwei, and this kind of behavior has faintly become the source of the threat to the stability of the Han Dynasty, but the problem has not yet been exposed.

Huo Guang knew that he would definitely not be able to manage the affairs of the counties with a Chang'an order, and it was the right way to govern Chang'an first.

Judging from Huo Guang's observation, Zhang Ji should still be a relatively reliable person, and it can be seen that he is not the kind of person who fights for power and fortune and loves to play conspiracy and tricks.

"You should also go and get busy first, if there is anything to do, the official will look for you again!" When Huo Guang first served as Chang'an Ling, he said that the new official took office with three fires, but Huo Guang didn't need this trick, because although he was new to office, the Chang'an County Ya had been replaced by his cronies, so that he didn't have to set up any authority, and at the beginning, Huo Guang didn't think about doing anything big, and everything was still waiting until he was familiar with Chang'an things.

"Show me the roster!" After the county Cheng Zhang Ji left, only Huo Guang, Du Yannian and Zhen Youcai were left in Chang'an Ling's office. The so-called office of this period was actually a simple room, and then it was furnished with a few sheets.

The county government register is also a roll of bamboo slips, paper has not been widely used in this period, and cloth and other things are too luxurious, and there is no bamboo slips to keep for a long time, so the general record is still based on bamboo slips.

Huo Guang opened the bamboo slips and swept them from the beginning, he found that the first half of the bamboo slips had been engraved for some time, and there were still a few bamboo slips in the second half that were new, and there were still a few bamboo slips in the middle whose names had been crossed out by a knife and pen. Huo Guang estimated that the name that was crossed out should be the original Chang'an County official who went with Yin Qi, and the name on the next few pieces of Hsinchu slips should be the group of knife and pen officials arranged by Huo Quzhi for himself.

Huo Guang just swept the names on the bamboo slips, and most of these names were ordinary, but when Huo Guang saw the last few pieces of new bamboo slips, his eyes fell on a name, and he couldn't help but take a deep breath.

Tian Qianqiu...... How can it be so coincidental? He actually became a county official in Chang'an! Huo Guang is no stranger to the name Tian Qianqiu, speaking of which, if everything develops according to the original history, he and he will have a lot of intersections in the future.

However, Huo Guang didn't pay much attention to Tian Qianqiu, because this person's ability was not outstanding, although Tian Qianqiu was the last prime minister of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he was the prime minister for more than ten years after the death of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. However, the evaluation of later historiography usually compares this person to Huo Guang's echo worm, and it can be said that his prime minister is completely an ornament.

And Huo Guang knew that Tian Qianqiu's historical role was not great, he just avenged the crown prince Liu Yi at the right time, which was regarded as conforming to the historical trend, and then he was promoted by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty all the way and became one of the fastest people to be promoted in ancient and modern times.

Huo Guang didn't have the mind to reuse Tian Qianqiu, because once there was no witch case of the crown prince Liu Ju, then Tian Qianqiu could only be a small official for a lifetime, and for a person who was incapable, Huo Guang did not plan to spend energy on cultivation, so let Tian Qianqiu be an assistant official with peace of mind.

"Brother Yannian, it seems that our family background is not big! The total number of the whole government is one hundred and thirty-four, of which eighty-five are servants. It's not as good as the average county government! Huo Guang closed the roster and said to Du Yannian with a smile, in the entire roster, Huo Guang did not find anything else except Tian Qianqiu.

"My lord, Chang'an County has a special location, in fact, we also deal with some more civil litigation disputes, Gongwei Jingshi has the Lieutenant's Mansion and the Weiwei Mansion, and Chang'an patrol and public security are also responsible for the Lieutenant's Mansion, our county government has nothing to do, so the county government is more than a clerk!" Du Yannian thought that Huo Guang didn't know yet, so he explained slightly.

Because Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had not officially set up the Yulin Army and the Eighth Captain at this time, the task of defending Chang'an was still carried out by the two armies of the north and south in turn, and it was generally rotated once a year. The Lieutenant's Mansion refers to the Northern Army, and the Weiwei Mansion is the Guide Army, and these two armies are also the most powerful central armed forces in the early middle and early period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Because of these two armies, in addition to a few officials who pretend to patrol the streets, in fact, the entire Chang'an City does not need the county government to maintain law and order, and there is also a more powerful internal history office above the Chang'an County government.

"Then wouldn't our county government have to do anything?" At this time, Zhen Youcai asked suspiciously, Du Yannian didn't know, in fact, the meaning of Huo Guang's words just now was similar to Zhen Youcai's question, that is, what do they need to do as a county government, or what is the most difficult thing for this county government?

The most important pressure on an administrative body, both ancient and modern, should come from two aspects, one is the stability of the government, and any administrative organization is afraid of such things as riots and uprisings. And the other is the task assigned by the higher authorities, or the implementation of the central policy.

There should be no first problem in Chang'an County, because if this situation occurs in Chang'an, then the Han Dynasty will be completely finished. And the second problem for Chang'an is much more severe than other counties, because this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, any laws and regulations will definitely be implemented from here first, and the corresponding assessment will be more stringent!

Huo Guang knew that there were also many absurd or erroneous policies during the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and many officials died because they opposed these policies or understood the wrong spirit of the policies, including Yizong who died on them. What Huo Guang is worried about now is whether the 'money order' that has just begun to be implemented will become a trap in his political career?
