In the 13th year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang set up college students such as Wenyuan Pavilion and Dongge Pavilion as advisers to the emperor. After the ancestors of the Ming dynasty, the university students participated in the maintenance, which was called the cabinet. In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, he became the actual prime minister and called him "assistant minister". The first record is the customary title of the chief college student in the Ming Dynasty, which is scheduled for August in the thirty-fifth year of Hongwu (1402). Call the chief college student "the first assistant", or "the first assistant" or "the first assistant". Cabinet records are equivalent to Prime Minister People's Republic of China (PRC) the State Council.
At first, the cabinet system was just an institution with the nature of emperor's secretary. During the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the forces began to rise (Sanyang Fuzheng). By the Ming Chenghua and Hongzhi years, the cabinet system had become the representative of the civilian government that could resist the imperial power. Although the Zhengde Dynasty in Daming was romantic and belligerent, it was not confused by Yang Tinghe and other cabinet elders. After the development of Jiajing and Longqing Dynasties in Daming, the early Wanli period of Daming should be a period of extremely prosperous cabinet power. Zhang's political reform made the cabinet the center of government operation, and the cabinet records became the actual prime minister.
In order to further strengthen the autocratic power of the monarchy, in the thirteenth year of Hongwu, the prime minister Hu was first killed, and the emperor himself was directly in charge of six departments. He also issued a document saying: "If you are the successor in the future, there is no need to discuss the appointment of the Prime Minister. If a minister asks for preparation, he will be sentenced to death! " But no matter how energetic he is, he can't manage so many national affairs. So, in the fifteenth year of Hongwu, imitating the Song Dynasty, Huagai Hall, Wuying Hall, Wenyuan Pavilion and Dongge University were established. Shao Wei, the minister of rites, and Wu Bozong were named Wu Ying. Song Nawei, a bachelor of Hanlin, and Wu Shen, an ancient book, are the east elder brothers. He also set up a bachelor's degree in Wenhua Hall to recruit Confucian scholars such as Bao Xun, Yu Quan and Zhang Changnian to tutor the Prince. The rankings are all positive. However, these college students are "special waiters, just consultants". And the grade is very low, only five products, in order to avoid unauthorized. It can only be regarded as the origin of the "cabinet" organization.
The real establishment of the "Cabinet" was in the Ming Dynasty. After Ming Taizu acceded to the throne, he ordered imperial academy's editors, revisers and other lower-ranking officials to be on duty in Wenyuan Pavilion at Wumen to participate in maintenance, which was later called "Cabinet". "Since then, the appointment of cabinet ministers has started, but at that time, all the people who entered the cabinet were compiling, monitoring and reading officials, not officials, and they were not allowed to act arbitrarily. Division should not be related to things. " Or the emperor's private secretary. After the mid-Yongle period, his authority gradually increased, he was in charge of six ministers and became the emperor's top aide and decision-making body. In the twenty-first year of Jiajing, Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty, Yan Song, a powerful minister, was appointed as a university student in Wuyingdian, and he was good at politics for more than twenty years. The power of the cabinet is exactly the same as that of the former prime minister.
The Qing dynasty followed the Ming system and set up a cabinet and a college student. However, the military and political power in the early Qing dynasty was in the hands of Manchu aristocratic conference. 1732 after the establishment of the military department in Yong Zhengdi, the real power was in the military department, and the cabinet existed in name only, becoming an institution that only conveyed imperial edicts and issued proclamations. In the late Qing Dynasty, the responsible cabinet was established, but the military department and cabinet were abolished. The nature of the cabinet in the early years of the Republic of China was different, and it was no longer the inheritance of the cabinet in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. )
In the Qing Dynasty, Tiancong set up the Inner Third Hospital. During the Shunzhi period, it was renamed Cabinet. It was divided into a hall and a pavilion by a college student. During the Qianlong period, the system of three halls and three museums was stipulated. However, because the real power is in the hands of Manchu nobles, the power of the cabinet is low, and most people who participate in important government affairs are appointed by the emperor, not necessarily cabinet members. After the establishment of the Ministry of War, the real power was concentrated in the Ministry of War, and the cabinet existed in name only, only becoming the organ that conveyed the imperial edicts and issued proclamations. But it is still the highest official position in the Qing dynasty in name. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, a responsible cabinet was established in imitation of constitutional monarchy. The old cabinet merged with the Ministry of Military Affairs to become the highest state organ.
During the period of Northern Warlords, it was renamed as the State Council, but it was still called the Cabinet, and its members were called the Cabinet.
