Di Renjie, known as the "Pearl of Haiqu and the Treasure of the Southeast", was a famous Qing official during the Wu Zetian period of the Tang Dynasty. Di Renjie once served as the Assassin of Ningzhou and the Governor of Jiangnan, and both achieved very good political achievements. Greatly appreciated by Wu Zetian, he later became the prime minister directly. As the prime minister, Di Renjie was only a Sanpin official! So who are the first and second pin officials?
Di Renjie
In the eyes of many people, the prime minister is second only to the emperor and enjoys the treatment of ten thousand people under one person, but this is not the case for Di Renjie, the prime minister. Officials in the Tang Dynasty adopted a three-province, six-ministry system, three provinces were Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, and the officials of the three provinces basically handled all the affairs of the imperial court, Zhongshu Province was controlled by two Zhongshu Ling, responsible for issuing the emperor's orders, and Menxia Province was responsible for two servants, which were used to review the orders issued by Zhongshu Province. Shangshu Province administers the most affairs, with six ministries under its jurisdiction, which are managed by left and right servants.
The officials of the three provinces are basically the peak of power, but they are all officials of the three products. So who are the first and second products? In fact, there were different types of officials in the Tang Dynasty, including knights, honorary officials and officials, of which the officials were the ministers of the three provinces and six ministries, and the highest grade of officials was Zheng Sanpin, which was the leader of the three provinces. And the knights are often those relatives of the emperor, similar to the princes of the Qing Dynasty, their ranks are in the first and second products, usually do not have to hold any position, but have higher rights than the officials.
And the xunguan is the descendant of those founding fathers, and the treatment is similar to that of the imperial relatives. In "Detective Di Renjie", there are often superior officials who obstruct Di Renjie's normal handling of cases, which makes Di Renjie very embarrassed. After all, the feudal dynasty is the emperor alone, and after the imperial relatives and those heroes, they have won at the starting line from birth.
