Abstract: This paper reviews the reason，process and the result of the division of Linjin and Yuxiang Counties
of Shanxi in the Yongzheng Ｒeign． The initiative to divide the county was the result of the particular
political situation in Puzhou Prefecture，including incident of popular resistance to taxes，that lead to a
popular naoxian ( demonstration against the county administration) in the Yongzheng Ｒeign which，in
turn，produce a proposal to divide the county in two． The intention of this action was meant to increase
the strength of local social control rather than the outgrowth of any local developments． The repeated
naoxian resulting from the proposal to divide the county administration lead to repeated naoxian by the
people of Linjin and Yuxiang that revealed the various and multiple contradictions among the people
including educational quota，land reclamation，and corvee labor． Actually，dividing the county seemed
unplanned but the action had an intrinsic logic given the long development of the local history． The case
of Linjin and Yuxiang Counties also shows that the intervention of political power in the adjustment of
administrative in traditional China was“rigid”and could obliterate the voice of the grass roots of society．
Furthermore，the process and political factors that “filled ” the geographical space was coercive and
resolute，not flat and flexible，especially when facing large scale local political disorder．

摘要：      本文梳理了雍正年间山西临晋、虞乡分县的原委、过程和结果。雍正年间蒲州地方特殊的政情、民情下发生了民众抗粮 “闹县”的事件，随之产生了分县提议的出台，分县的主要目的在于加大对地方社会的控制力度，而非地方开发所致。其间临晋、虞乡县民又因分县迭次闹县，透露出地方社会多种矛盾的纠葛与交织，这包括学额分配、湖滩开发、劳役负担等方面，分县看似偶然，实则具有地方历史长期发展的内在逻辑。这一分县案例也表明，传统时代政区调整中国家政治力量的 “刚性”介入，会抹杀底层民众的声音。政治因素 “填充”地理空间的过程是强制和坚决的，而非平和、柔性的互动，尤其是在地方发生重大事件的时候。
