Changes in the governor's system
Governor is a general term for governor and governor. It first appeared in the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang appointed Crown Prince Zhu Biao as the governor of Shaanxi. At this time, the governor is only temporarily dispatched. Judging from the time of the establishment of the governor, the establishment of the governor experienced a process from abnormal to normal, during which it often closed down.
During the period of Tianshun and Zhengde, although the governor repeatedly stopped his post, he eventually became a permanent post in Jiajing because of his irreplaceable role in connecting the central and local governments.
Judging from the region where the governor is located, the area involved is expanding rapidly. There were only six governors in Xuande five years. After that, it was added one after another. During the orthodox period, the first 13 was the county chief, and governors were set up in Beijing and Jiubian.
Characteristics of Governor System in Ming and Qing Dynasties
1, the rulers attached great importance to the governor's supervision system, while the rulers of Ming and Qing dynasties attached great importance to the governor's system and gave the governor great power in the system.
2. The Governor has the power of supervision when dealing with local affairs. As the highest executive head of the local government, the governor is in charge of the local government. The governor has the right to "comprehensively manage the military and civilians, govern the military and civilians, assess officials, repair the wounded and seal the border."
3. The power of the Governor is checked and balanced by the system. From the institutional point of view, the unification of the governor's administrative power and supervision power is likely to lead to the monopoly of the local governor's power, which contradicts the centralization and is not conducive to the coordinated development of the relationship between the central and local governments.
