What is the difference between the governor of the prefecture and the county governor of the prefect

Zhixian, the county originated in the Qin State (Shang Dynasty Change: Juxiaoyi is the county), the government belongs to the current municipal administrative unit, as for the state, you can look at the map of the Three Kingdoms period, such as Yizhou (Sichuan), Jingzhou (Huguang area), Qingzhou (southern Shandong), it is not difficult to see that it is an administrative unit above the county (city), although there was no formal establishment of a provincial-level administrative unit before the Yuan Dynasty, but at least the county level is not second only to the administrative unit of **, so the prefecture is greater than the prefect is greater than the county. Part 6:

Ministry of Officials, Ministry of Households, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of War, Ministry of Punishment, Ministry of Industry, starting from the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Abolition of the Prime Minister set up six departments, Shang Shu Lingzhi, equivalent to the current minister, he is directly responsible for the emperor, which is the manifestation of the high degree of centralization of power in the Ming Dynasty.

The governor is the largest, followed by the prefect and the prefecture, and the county is the smallest. It's as simple as that.

The magistrate is the current county magistrate, the prefect and the governor should be the same level, both are equivalent to the mayor, the six departments include the Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Industry, is the setting of the ancient Chinese **, Shangshu is the minister of each ministry.

The prefect is the county magistrate, the prefect is the mayor, and the governor is the governor.

From large to small, the governor - the prefect - the prefecture - the county.

1. Different responsibilities

1. Prefect: manage the county, convey the best government decrees, adjudicate cases, govern the people, collect taxes, and evaluate lower-level officials.

2. Zhizhou: manage the government affairs of the state.

3. Zhixian: Zhixian is mainly in charge of a county's politics, economy, military, litigation, etc.

2. The reasons for the establishment are different

1. Prefect: It is mainly slowly evolved, and it was called "Zhifu Affairs" in the Song Dynasty; The Yuan Dynasty abolished the government and set up roads, and only set up the official position of "prefect" in the scattered house; The Ming Dynasty officially changed the name of the official position to the prefect.

2. Zhizhou: In order to weaken the power of the Jiedu envoy.

3. Zhixian: Mainly during the Song Dynasty, the imperial court sent court officials to serve as the county governor.

Third, the status is different

1. Prefect: During the Qing Dynasty, the prefect's grade was from the fourth grade, and its salary was 105 taels, and its position was equivalent to a prefecture-level city.

Municipal Party Secretary and Mayor.

2. Zhizhou: Zhizhou's grade at that time was from the fifth grade, and the monthly price was ten stones, which is equivalent to the secretary of the municipal party committee of the current non-prefecture-level city.

3. Zhixian: Zhixian is generally equipped with "county cheng" and "main yin", its grade is seven grades, and the position is equivalent to the current county magistrate and secretary of the county party committee.

Take the Ming Dynasty as an example.

First of all, the grades of prefects, prefectures, and counties are different.

The prefect is four products, the state is from the five products, and the county is seven products.

Secondly, the prefect, prefecture, and county have different jurisdictional levels.

Ming Dynasty provincial capital, state and county level.

The level of prefectures and counties is relatively fixed, mainly because the prefectures are more chaotic, there are states at the same level as the prefecture, there are states at the same level as the county, and there are states between the prefecture and the county.

In addition, the nature of the functions and powers of the prefect, the prefecture, and the county is also different.

The prefect is essentially an official in charge of officials, he is not a pro-people official, and does not directly manage the people. The magistrate, on the other hand, is a pro-people official who is a direct herdsman. Zhizhou depends on the situation:

In states that do not receive counties, the governors are the same as the counties, and they are all pro-people officials within their jurisdictions; On the one hand, like the prefect, he manages the people of the counties under his command through the subordinate prefects, and on the other hand, he has a directly governed area (usually a state city), and in this area he is a pro-people official who directly manages the people.

The difference between a prefect and a prefect is that they have different levels and different powers.

Zhixian is the seventh grade, and the county of Beijing (such as Daxing, Wanping) is slightly higher, and it is the sixth grade. In addition, the magistrate of Qufu, the hometown of the sage, is also a positive six products, and basically all of them are served by the Kong family. The prefect is from the four products, except for Shuntianfu and Fengtianfu, and the chief official of Shuntianfu and Fenglu Tianfu is called Yin, which is the third product.

The prefect, also known as the Taishou, was the name of a local official in ancient China and the highest administrator of the state capital. The prefect is a four-rank official, which is equivalent to the mayor of an independent city and the secretary of the municipal party committee. Because in ancient times there was no distinction between administration and justice; The corresponding county magistrate is the county magistrate and the secretary of the county party committee in the modern sense.

The prefect is similar to the current commissioner of the District Administration.

Definition of prefect and prefect official positions

The prefect should be placed in the municipal party committee secretary and mayor of a prefecture-level city (in ancient times, politics and law were not separated), and under the prefect there were subordinates such as Tongzhi and Tongju, who were in charge of the affairs of the government, such as supervising grain, the army, catching thieves, and water conservancy.

And the government also has a Zhili Mansion (there is no such position, it is just convenient to know), for example, the managers of the Ming Dynasty's capital Beijing and Nanjing, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, became the Shuntianfu Yin and Yingtianfu Yin, which are ****, and the status is the same as that of the provincial **.

The official rank of the governor of Sanzhou was the seventh grade in the Ming Dynasty and the fifth grade in the Qing Dynasty. It is subordinate to the prefecture and the province, and does not govern the county, and the administrative area is the same as the county, but the level is higher than that of the county. It is equivalent to the county magistrate of the current county (county-level city).

Therefore, during the Ming and Qing dynasties, the administrative level of the prefecture and the prefecture was the same.

What is the difference between a prefect, a prefect, and a prefect?

First of all, before knowing their differences, we must know that the administrative divisions of the Ming and Qing dynasties were a parallel system of "province-prefecture-county" and "province-prefecture-prefecture-county" (of course, the Qing Dynasty also appeared as an administrative division). In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the province governed the prefecture and the prefecture, and the prefecture governed the county and the scattered prefecture, and the prefecture could also govern the county. Therefore, if we look at it from the perspective of authority, the prefect is in charge of the administrative affairs of a prefecture, the governor is in charge of the administrative affairs of a state, and the governor is in charge of the administrative affairs of a county.

If you look at it from the perspective of direct relationship, the difference between them is that the prefect and the governor of Zhili Prefecture have the same treatment, and the prefect and the prefect of Sanzhou have the same treatment, and then the prefect and the prefect of Sanzhou are the subordinates of the prefect, and the prefect of Zhili Prefecture sometimes becomes the superior of the prefect. Of course, if you look at the difference from the grade, the prefect is from the four products, the Zhili Prefecture is from the five products or from the five products (the Ming Dynasty is from the five products), the Sanzhou Zhizhou is from the five products, and the county is from the seven products.

Later, in terms of Yulu, for example, the prefect of the Qing Dynasty was 105 taels per year, the Yulu of Zhizhou was 80 taels, and the Yulu of Zhixian was 45 taels. Of course, the Qing Dynasty also raised incorruptible silver, for example, in Jiangsu, the three of them raised incorruptible silver in a year, respectively, the prefect raised incorruptible silver is 2500-3000 taels, the Zhizhou incorruptible silver is 1000-2000 taels, and the county incorruptible silver is 1000-1800 taels.

At the same time, in the Qing Dynasty, these three also differed in the top ornament and complement. The crown ornament of the prefect is a small sapphire on the top of the crown, with a squablite, and the crown of auspicious clothes is topped with lapis lazuli, and the complement pattern is a lark. Zhizhou's crown ornament is a small sapphire on the top of the crown, a crystal stone on the crown of Jifu with a crystal stone top, and the complement pattern is a white pheasant.

The top ornament of Zhixian is a small sapphire on the top of the crown, and the top of the plain gold crown is a plain gold top, and the complement pattern is an emu.

In addition, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the chariots and various honor guards of these three were also different. Here I take the Ming Dynasty as an example, such as taking a car, the prefect and the governor of the state can use the sushi head embroidered belt, Qingman, but the county can only use the Suyun head green belt, Qingman. Another example is the umbrella cover, the prefect can use the red floating Tu top, all use the black brown Luo table, red silk wrapping, three eaves, and Zhizhou uses the red floating Tu top, Qingluo table, red silk wrapping, two eaves, to the county can only use the red floating Tu top, green silk table, red silk wrapping, two eaves.

In short, there are many differences between the prefect, the county and the prefecture in ancient times, and due to the limited space, I will not introduce them one by one here. If you are interested, you can go and see "History of the Ming Dynasty". Yufu Zhi" and "Qing History Manuscript. Yufu Zhi", which has a detailed introduction here.

What are the prefects, counties and prefectures equivalent to now? To put it simply, the prefect is the current secretary of the municipal party committee, the prefect is the current secretary of the county party committee, and the governor of Zhili Prefecture is the current secretary of the provincial municipal party committee, and the governor of Sanzhou is the secretary of the municipal party committee of the county-level city. Of course, this cannot be generalized, after all, the ancient official system is not exactly the same as the current official system, so it can only be roughly compared.

The prefect, the prefect, and the prefect are all the governors of the local administrative divisions of the feudal society, and the difference between them lies in the different levels of management and power. The prefect is equivalent to the current mayor, the prefect is equivalent to the current county magistrate, and the prefect is equivalent to the current mayor.

The prefect should be equivalent to the current mayor, and the prefect should be equivalent to the current secretary of the county party committee.

The prefect and the prefect are at the same administrative level, which is equivalent to the current mayor. The prefect is smaller than the prefect of the prefecture and is equivalent to the current county magistrate.

The prefect is equivalent to the current governor, the prefect is equivalent to the current mayor, and the prefect is equivalent to the current county magistrate. The power of the prefect is greater than that of the prefect, and the power of the prefect is greater than that of the prefect.

The prefect is equivalent to the current prefecture-level mayor, the prefect is equivalent to the current county-level mayor, and the prefect is an ordinary county magistrate.
