Can you use the historical knowledge you have learned to talk about how centralization developed from the Qin Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty in the history of China? Describe the general situation in your language. 1) From the organizational point of view of the central government, after the reunification of Qin, Ying Zheng, king of Qin, established the system of "emperor" with supreme power for the first time in history, and set up three officials and nine ministers who were absolutely subordinate to the emperor. However, the later emperors still thought that the imperial power was not strong enough and the power of the prime minister was too great to threaten the imperial power, so they constantly strengthened the imperial power by weakening the relative power. For example, when the Sui and Tang Dynasties established three provinces, one prime minister's yamen became three prime ministers' yamen that contained each other. In the Ming dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang simply abolished the prime minister and the emperor was directly in charge of six departments. The Qing dynasty set up a military department to directly control the military and political power. With the strengthening of absolute monarchy, centralization has naturally been strengthened.

(2) Judging from the central government's control over local governments, Qin Shihuang abolished the enfeoffment system and implemented the county system. All county orders were directly appointed by the emperor, which strengthened centralization. In the future, the central government's control over local governments has been continuously strengthened. For example, in order to strengthen the local surveillance, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up thirteen counties and sent a secretariat to monitor the local area. The Yuan Dynasty changed counties into provinces, and the local administrative district government was an agency of the central government (Zhongshu Province). The power of the provincial government in the Ming Dynasty is simply divided into three parts: setting up three yamen (three divisions), which are in charge of political, military and judicial power respectively. The three yamen are directly under the central management and contain each other, completely eliminating the possibility that local governments will not obey the central government.

(3) From the perspective of bureaucratic sources: After the reunification of Qin Dynasty, the system of "being an expensive official" was abolished and changed to a non-hereditary bureaucratic system directly appointed by the emperor. After the Han Dynasty, the selection of officials changed from "imperial examination system" and "nine-grade imperial examination system" controlled by local powerful gentry to the imperial examination system in which the emperor directly mastered the right of selection, regardless of his family aristocrats, and then to the stereotyped writing system in Ming and Qing Dynasties aimed at cultivating the emperor's loyal servants. Not only has centralization been strengthened, but so has autocratic monarchy.

In addition, feudal monarchs continued to strengthen cultural absolutism and their own rule by means of "burning books to bury Confucianism" and literary inquisition.
