After Yan Song, the chief of the cabinet was Xu Jie. Xu Jie succeeded the cabinet chief after the fall of Yan Song and held this position until the death of Emperor Jiajing. When Xu Jie was the chief assistant of the cabinet, he had drafted the posthumous edict of Emperor Jiajing together with Zhang Juzheng, helping the officials who had been wrongly sentenced to restore their original positions, and distributing the fields occupied by King Jing to the people for cultivation, so he was praised by the people. However, in his later years, Xu Jie indulged his children in robbing the people's fields and covered up their illegal acts, causing him to gradually lose the hearts of the people. Xu Jie did not receive the praise of the people after his death because his actions in his later years lost the support of the people.

The Prime Minister of the Qing Ci Cabinet referred to Yan Song of the Ming Dynasty. He was favored by the Emperor for writing Qing Ci (a Taoist memorial) and became the Prime Minister of the Cabinet. Yan Song was lucky during his reign and successfully overthrew Yan Song's rule and won praise. His success had earned him the nickname of 'Prime Minister Qingci'.
There were some differences between the cabinet system and the prime minister system in terms of status, power, and influence. Under the prime minister system, the prime minister was given the power to make decisions by the system. His position was very stable. It could be said that he was "below one person and above ten thousand people". The cabinet members were only the Yellow Emperor's advisors and had no real power. In addition, under the prime minister system, the prime minister led all officials to pledge loyalty to the emperor, but at the same time, there were certain restrictions on the imperial power, and the cabinet could not have such great authority and influence. However, the prime minister system and the cabinet system were both loyal to governing the country and were controlled by the emperor. They were basically there to assist the emperor in managing state affairs.
Some information about the cabinet chief of the Ming Dynasty, but he did not provide a complete list of the cabinet chief. According to the document [6], the cabinet chiefs of the Ming Dynasty included Zhang Juzheng, Yang Shiqi, Yang Rong, Gao Gong, Xu Jie, Shen Shixing, Ye Xianggao, and Yang Tinghe. However, this information was not complete. There might be other names of cabinet chiefs that were not mentioned. Therefore, it was impossible to provide a complete list of the cabinet ministers.
Yan Song's method of toppling Xia Yan was to use the Emperor's power to make enemies of Xia Yan everywhere. He also constantly slandered Xia Yan, saying that Xia Yan was disloyal, and finally succeeded in toppling Xia Yan. Yan Song took advantage of Xia Yan's support to make his wings grow strong, and then turned his spearhead to Xia Yan. He also bribed the eunuchs around Emperor Jiajing. When the court was discussing the matter of recovering the Hetao, he sent a large number of memorials about famine, rebellion, and border defeat to Emperor Jiajing, shaking his determination to recover the Hetao. In addition, Yan Song also used the Jiajing Emperor's belief in Taoism to urge Taoist alchemists to report to the Jiajing Emperor, saying that the astronomical phenomena showed that it was unwise to recover the Hetao at this time, and that it was impossible to recover the Hetao. In the end, Yan Song successfully pushed Xia Yan into the abyss of destruction.
