汉末公车令朝位变动及“都官长史”考辨

Textual Research on the Changes in the Official Ranking of the Post of Gongcheling(公车令) in Relation to That of Duguanzhangshi(都官长史) in the Late Han Dynasty

在建安八年以前,公车令的朝位在都官长史之后,而非都官和长史之后。都官长史包括京师诸官所属的长史,秩禄从千石到六百石不等。建安八年以后,公车令的朝位安排在将、大夫之后,在朝位的变动上属于升级,而非降级。

Before the eighth year （ about 203 A. D. ） of the reign of Emperor Jian5 an at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the post of Gongcheling （公车令）,literally an official in charge of guarding and patrolling duties as well as responsible for reception and registration affairs, was above that of Duguanzhangshi , literally a pre-fect or chief of staff, in terms of official ranking. While after the eighth year （about 203 A. D. ） of the reign of Em-peror Jian 5 an , the post of Gongcheling （公车令）saw itself elevated above the ranks of ordinary senior officials at court like generals and Dafa （大夫）.
