For example, the Minister of Punishment is now the head of the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Public Security, the Supreme Court and the Supreme Procuratorate. Beginning in the Qin Dynasty, following the order of ministers in the Western Han Dynasty, he was originally an official in charge of documents and ministers' seals.
Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was a eunuch (also known as the official of the Secretariat), and when Han became emperor, he was changed to a scholar. After Wei and Jin Dynasties, it was actually the post of Prime Minister. In the early Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin, the king of Qin, once held his post, but he never left. So the governor of Shangshu Province in the Tang Dynasty was just a servant. In the Song Dynasty, he was a prince and an envoy, and his shifts were all in official positions. Eliminate waste.
