五代中央职官制度虽承唐代,但又具一时之制的特点。三省权力的省外发展进入一个新的阶段,这种“官失其职”使三省六部出现了结构和功能的改变,但在效能上,由于失去制约,并没有达到君主专制的预期目的。具体而言:相权与枢密使权力分配失衡,失去权力的制约;重武人,轻文人,失去力量的制约;尚力量,轻纲纪,失去制度的制约。宋初在解决方镇问题的基础上,采取了制约机制,扭转了五代“失制”的局面,形成宋式专制体制,历史真正地走出了方镇时代。 Although the five generation of central government official system inherited the Tang Dynasty, but with a one-time system characteristics. The development of the tri-provincial power outside the province has entered a new phase. This “loss of official functions” has led to structural and functional changes in six provinces of the three provinces. However, in terms of effectiveness, due to the loss of control, the intended purpose of monarchy has not been achieved . To be more specific, the power and the privation unbalance the distribution of power and restrict the power. The heavyweights and the light literati are constrained by the loss of power. In the early Song Dynasty, on the basis of solving the square town issue, the restrictive mechanism was adopted to reverse the situation of “lost system” in the fifth generation and form the autocratic system in Song Dynasty. The history really came out of the era of Fangzhen.
