During the Three Kingdoms period, Shangshutai was too powerful. The system of three provinces and six departments reached its peak in Sui and Tang Dynasties, and later dynasties more or less inherited its form and system. It was a powerful support for the ancient emperors to rule hundreds of officials. Sima Guang made an in-depth analysis of the system of three provinces and six departments in the Tang Dynasty in "Learning from each other". Now, let's learn about the system of three provinces and six departments in the Tang Dynasty. Being an emperor requires not only scenery, but also souvenirs from ministers such as delicacies and delicacies-this is absolutely a personal matter. The existence of three provinces and six departments, first, restricts each other, and more importantly, shares the emperor's labor and improves administrative efficiency. Temperance and power are by no means empty words. If something goes wrong, it will be a bloody conflict.
The system of "Three Governance and Nine Streams" in Qin Dynasty has overwhelming power. Li Si, Zhao and Hu Hai destroyed the first unified dynasty in the Central Plains. During the period of Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, Hebe Tien was the prime minister and arrogantly placed cronies in the DPRK. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was very unhappy, but he was also very helpless: "I want to get rid of these officials? I also want to get rid of officials. " "Fen" means paste. The emperor of the dynasty was like this, but it was also a joke. Rulers began to think about the law of decentralization. First of all, it must be clear that the three provinces and six departments in the Tang Dynasty are very different from the departments directly under the same name in later generations.
The three provinces in Tang Dynasty refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province. Zhongshu Province is responsible for deciding government decrees and issuing orders. Zhong Shuling, the official in charge, ordered the two to refute the proposal in the palm of the province and record it. The responsibility of Shangshu Province is execution. The head of the team is Shang Shuling, and the deputy head pats one person left and one person right. The system of three provinces and six departments in Tang Dynasty is the continuation of the official system in Sui Dynasty. Three provinces refer to Zhongshu province, Menxia province and Shangshu province, and six departments refer to official department, household department, ritual department, Ministry of War, Ministry of Punishment and Ministry of Industry. The Ministry of Education is responsible for making decisions and formulating strategies and directions; The Ministry of Education is responsible for deliberation and has the right to review the resolutions of China Province.
