When was the Ming Dynasty officially born and abolished the prime minister system

Zhu Yuanzhang officially established the Ming Dynasty on January 23, 1368, with the capital of Nanjing.

The fall of the Yuan Dynasty was in August 1368, when Xu Da captured Beijing (the capital of the Yuan Dynasty).

The abolition of the prime minister system was in the thirteenth year of Hongwu (1380), Zhu Yuanzhang was energetic, abolished the prime minister system, and handled all affairs alone. Later, Zhu Di could not bear the burden of government affairs, and re-established the cabinet of scholars, which can be regarded as restoring the power of the minister.

In the thirteenth year of Hongwu at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the province of Zhongshu was dismissed, the prime minister was abolished, and the emperor personally decided on the state policy.

In order to prevent the danger of usurping the throne and seizing power due to the power of the prime minister, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, simply took the opportunity to abolish the prime minister system after killing Hu Weiyong, the prime minister of the left, in the thirteenth year of Hongwu (1380). The prime minister's system, which has been in use for more than a thousand years, has disappeared forever! The original power of the prime minister was shared by the Shangshu of the six ministries of officials, households, rites, soldiers, criminals, and workers; And these six Shangshu are under the direct jurisdiction and command of the monarch, so the power of the monarch has greatly increased!

At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, a month after Zhu Yuanzhang killed Hu Weiyong in the twelfth year of Hongwu (1380), he dismissed the post of prime minister, made fun of the setting of Zhongshu Province, arranged for the agency to divert personnel, and concentrated all his efforts on his own monopoly.

It was the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, when the prime minister Liu Bowen hung up at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the prime minister's power was vacant, and it was not set up directly.

The TV series said that Prime Minister Hu Weiyong plotted to rebel and poisoned Liu Bowen with a false decree, and in a fit of anger, Zhu Yuanzhang killed Hu Weiyong and abolished the post of prime minister, I don't know if it's true, it's just a TV series...

First, the sharp weapon of maintaining the rule of the feudal bureaucracy has been damaged.

The bureaucratic system of the Ming Dynasty was controlled by the prime minister, and the abolition of the prime minister's system meant that the sharp weapon of bureaucratic rule was damaged, and the stability of the feudal political system was also damaged.

2. Appointment and dismissal of the impact **.

The appointment system of the Ming Dynasty was basically controlled by the prime minister, and the abolition of the prime minister's system also affected the appointment and dismissal system and the appointment and dismissal of the prime minister.

3. Influence the discipline management of **.

The abolition of the prime minister's system has affected the discipline management of ** and affected the discipline of **.

Fourth, it influenced the political construction of the Ming Dynasty.

The abolition of the system of prime ministers meant that the political construction was affected, making it impossible for the Ming Dynasty to establish an effective political institution, which affected the political construction of the Ming Dynasty.

The thirteenth year of Hongwu in the era of Zhu Yuanzhang. The year is 1380 A.D. Zhu Yuanzhang killed Prime Minister Hu Weiyong in the case of traitorous party, implicating more than 20,000 people before and after.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang carried out a major reorganization of the imperial political system. The formal abolition of the prime ministership system, which had been in place in our country for at least 1,500 years, made the imperial political system and institutional setup extremely simple and straightforward compared to previous generations, and its most important feature was that all power was undoubtedly vested in the hands of the emperor, that is, the so-called "great power was returned to the imperial court". As a direct consequence, it became clear at a glance that the authority of the emperor had become unprecedentedly great;

After Zhu Yuanzhang killed Prime Minister Hu Weiyong, he officially ordered the abolition of the prime minister system that had been in place in China for more than 1,500 years. Moreover, in his imperial inscriptions, it was particularly clearly stipulated that if any of the descendants dared to propose the re-establishment of the prime minister, he would be punished for serious crimes. Therefore, since the thirteenth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, there has been no prime minister in China.

The absence of a prime minister meant that the emperor was the head of state and had to perform the work of the head of the executive at the same time, which had two consequences for the emperor: first, the power of the entire state was concentrated in the hands of the emperor; Second, the emperor's workload has become unprecedentedly huge.

The prime minister's power is too great, and Zhu Yuanzhang wants to take the imperial power into his own hands, so the cabinet appeared later, and the power is still the supremacy of the imperial power, and the cabinet is a part-time worker.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty set up a cabinet, which was actually equivalent to the prime minister, but the head of the cabinet monopolized the power, so the Qing Dynasty restored the prime minister system.

This has a lot to do with the change of law, and the establishment of the military aircraft department in the Qing Dynasty is equivalent to the prime minister.

Because the Ming Dynasty did not have a prime minister in order to strengthen the imperial power. The administrative system is in disarray. Therefore, the Qing Dynasty restored the prime minister system at the peak of the high concentration of imperial power in order to improve administrative efficiency.

The Ming Dynasty did not have a prime minister in order to prevent the prime minister from dictatorship, and the Qing Dynasty restored it with checks and balances.

The Qing Dynasty also did not have the post of prime minister, and the Qing Dynasty's military aircraft department and the Ming cabinet were always placed together, and there were many similarities.

Because after the previous failures, the Qing Dynasty believed that it was better for the country to develop by restoring the prime minister system.

This was mainly due to the current situation at that time, and the prime minister was not as heavy as the Ming Dynasty and could just share the emperor's government affairs.
