First, measures to strengthen the monarchy in Ming Taizu.
1, Establishment of Ming Dynasty:1At the beginning of 368, Zhu Yuanzhang took Yingtian as the capital, renamed Nanjing, proclaimed himself emperor, and established the Ming Dynasty. This is Ming Taizu.
2. Measures to strengthen the monarchical power in Ming Taizu: Politically, cancel the book province in China and set up three departments directly under the central government to be responsible for civil affairs, criminal prisons and military and political affairs respectively; In the central government, the prime minister is abolished, and books are abolished. Officials, households, ceremonies, soldiers, criminals and workers are in charge of state affairs and are directly responsible to the emperor. Set up a special organization, the Royal Guard, to monitor and investigate the subjects.
In terms of ideology and culture, we reformed the imperial examination system and adopted stereotyped writing to select scholars. It is stipulated that the imperial examination can only be put forward within the scope of the four books and five classics, and candidates can only answer questions according to the prescribed viewpoints, and are not allowed to give play to their own opinions. The style of the answer sheet must be divided into eight parts and become an "eight-part essay".
Second, the battle of Jingnan and moving the capital to Beijing
1, the prince of Beiping, Judy, fought against Wen Jian under the banner of "Jingnan", which was called "Jingnan Battle" in history. Judy proclaimed himself emperor, and he was Ming Chengzu.
2. Emperor Cheng Zu of the Ming Dynasty strengthened the monarchy: 142 1 year, he moved the capital to Beijing, and strengthened the control of the central government over the north. Further strengthen the monarchical power and continue to implement the policy of reducing vassals. In addition, the east factory of the secret service will strengthen the monitoring and investigation of the subjects. The establishment of factories and health secret service is a manifestation of the strengthening of The Ming dynasty emperors's autocracy.
Third, in what ways was the power of the monarch strengthened in the early Ming Dynasty?
A: Politically, the central government abolished the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Household Affairs, and dealt with state affairs with six ministries. The local government abolished the bank book province and set up three departments; Set up special institutions such as factory guards to monitor the subjects; Move the capital to Beijing and strengthen the central control over the north; Implement the policy of reducing vassals. Culture: stereotyped writing of literati.
After the Prime Minister was not established, according to the analysis, the book province was changed to six, the ministers were the world's affairs, and the assistant minister II (deputy) and the Diange university were long-term consultants. The emperor is arrogant, and the bachelor is fresh. -Official records
