Panlong Yudao

"Panlong Yudao" tells the story of the transition between Ming Zhengde and Jiajing. After the death of Zhu Houzhao, the king of Xing Dynasty, Zhu Houcong, took the imperial edict and went to Beijing. At the age of fifteen, he disguised himself as a prisoner and went there, relying on "Panlong Cai" for support. He was almost killed by an assassin on the way. When he entered the capital, he was blocked by Yang Tinghe, so Zhu Houcong tried his best to enter the Fengtian Palace. After ascending the throne, Zhu Houcong and Yang Tinghe had many confrontations in the court. Yang Tinghe reduced the salary of the vassal prince, while Zhu Houcong investigated corruption and counterattacked, and also resolved the conspiracy of his party members. Zhu Houcong's desire to respect his biological father caused controversy, but he still insisted on building his biological father's mausoleum. After her wedding, she attracted much attention, and a harem battle ensued. Zhu Houcong was trapped by the pressure of the court and his desire for immortality. Taoism gradually became popular, and Taoist priests influenced the government. He also made great achievements in governing the country. The administration was reorganized, the taxation burden was reduced through reform, and the border defense was consolidated and strengthened. It's just fate. After the emperor's eldest son died in infancy, Zhu Houcong alienated his princes due to the saying "two dragons never meet". Prince Zhu Zaihe died of illness after leaving the cabinet to give lectures. Zhu Zaihe and other princes grew up in the neglect. In the forty-fifth year of Jiajing, Zhu Houcong died, and Zhu Zaihe succeeded to the throne, striving to innovate and open a new chapter of the Ming Dynasty. This work fully displays the complexity of that period of history and the ups and downs of the characters.
