Chang'an Twelve Hours Stills
The protagonists in "The Wind Rises in Luoyang" and "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an" are all bad people, what is the real role of bad people in ancient times? What role does it play, and what level of official position is it?
Bad Guys: Tang Dynasty positions
Bad people are the messengers in charge of investigation and arrest in the prefectures and counties of the Tang Dynasty, who are responsible for the investigation and arrest and interrogation, and are called "bad people" or "bad people", bad people are also called bad spine rot, and the leaders of bad people are called bad marshals, and their functions are similar to those of the descendants of fast catchers and servants. The low social status of bad people is reflected in the fact that although they are doing things for the government, they are not included in the formal system, and can only be regarded as marginal figures.
Since the composition of the grass-roots government in the Tang Dynasty was divided into six plates, county orders, county lieutenants, county clerks, county master books, Xu officials, and service duties, of which county lieutenants were in charge of investigating and arresting, and senior officers, archers, and zhuangding in the service were all responsible for arrest, so to some extent, bad people should be special occupations to improve the management ability of local public security and supplement criminal investigation forces.
Liang Zhangju's "Catalogue of Titles" quotes the "Saying Of the Bell Continuation": "In the Tang Dynasty, it was called a bad person, and there was a bad marshal, that is, the great han who was he. In fact, the title of bad person does not appear in any canonical history, and the Tang Dynasty people only recorded the title of bad person in the notebook novels.
It is simple and easy to understand: it is the lower level of the Tang Dynasty police, the salary is very low, most of the bullying is oppressed, the extortion and extortion is not less, the people dare to be angry and dare not speak, so hate them called it ~ bad people!
