Research On The Document System Seen In "Yuelu Qinjian"

The instrument is the most important way for the monarch to manage the country in the Qin Dynasty.Whether the document administration works well or not is directly related to the governance of the empire.There are three common ways to issue central edict documents: through Prime Minister,Royal History and Prime Minister Royal History.There are very few edicts directly issued to the prime minister,most of them are the edict of the eunuch or the history of the eunuch.The edicts that begin with the edict of the eunuch have the meaning of educating the people,or are related to the promotion and promotion of official positions,and most of them are Refers to Doctor Shi.In addition,for events that endanger state rule and matters that the emperor attaches special importance to,edicts will not be issued and executed through layers,but will be executed directly by the emperor’s history around the emperor.Specific provisions have also been made on the time difference between the execution of edicts.Documents between counties and counties mainly include requirements from superiors and instructions and responses from subordinates.The subordinate will not handle the incident without permission.If the superior has not responded,the subordinate will always follow up,and the county-level agency will check the status of the subordinate’s documents on schedule to avoid omissions.Regarding the time limit for the processing of local documents,due to the difference in the distance between the county government and each county,it will be transmitted by "second pass",so the document is issued from the county government,and the execution time to each county will vary according to the distance.After the court,the county court will handle and execute it within a day.Documents issued by county agencies to the county court generally take two to five days from issue to execution,and the processing time after arriving at the county court is also within one day.The Qin Dynasty’s clerical system can be well implemented,which guarantees the governance of the country by the clerical administration.
