On the topic of great Chinese emperors, no one really thinks about the Hongzhi Emperor (r. 1487 CE – 1505 CE), who is more famously known for being the only Chinese emperor that took only ONE wife his entire life!

But today’s episode will also focus on the achievements of the Hongzhi Emperor, and why he is one of China’s most underrated emperors.

TUNE IN!

Reminder, I have got a TikTok account (@bamboohistory), and I’ve already posted something on Chinese inventions, so please check it out! It’s reel..ly good 😊
