Was there a prime minister in the Ming Dynasty?

It is common sense that there was no prime minister in the Ming Dynasty, only records. Zhu Yuanzhang is a man with strong desire for power and suspicion. He was afraid of the autocratic power of the prime minister and abolished the prime minister. But later successors did not work as hard as Zhu Yuanzhang, so they had to set up the position equivalent to the prime minister. Because the successors of the prime minister system abolished by Zhu Yuanzhang dare not re-establish, they can only call the new position as records, but there are still many people who are used to the name of prime minister. \r\n For example, there is a cloud in Volume 7 of Yutang Yu Cong written by Jiao Hong in the Ming Dynasty: "In orthodoxy, (Yang Shiqi) is Xiyang, and Wenmin (Yang Rong) is Dongyang, so they are two. Wen Ding (Yangpu) County, the southern county of each book, is called Nanyang in the world. Xiyang is talented, Dongyang has an industry, and Nanyang has a degree. So when I talk about sages, I must say Sanyang. " \ r \ nHere, I call Yang Shiqi the Prime Minister. If the leadership rules must be to use Yang Shiqi to increase the popularity of the stone tablet, after all, many people who don't know the recorded Ming history don't know what the official is. The prime minister is a household name, and the leaders are right on this point. After all, that's what the people thought at that time. Just explain to the tourists. \ r \ nHehe, where are you? I went to see the monument erected in Yang Shiqi.
