If you were to describe Ming Wuzong in one sentence, how would you summarize what he did?
I want to sum it up like this: pro-adultery without self-knowledge, build a leopard house without emperor virtue!
Emperor Wuzong of Ming, Zhu Houzhao, the tenth emperor of the Ming Dynasty, why he became such a depraved person may have a lot to do with his tutor.

Ming Xiaozong was a model emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had to engage in monogamy, and had a very good relationship with his wife, abolished many palace rules for his wife, and naturally indulged and doted on his son. They all say that loving mothers lose their families, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Ming Xiaozong would become such an indulgent person, which is directly related to family education!
Let's talk about how he got close to the adulterous villain. Ming Wuzong ascended the throne at the age of 15, at this time his mind did not take shape, and he was still relatively casual with things.
Ming Wuzong had eight tigers by his side:
Liu Jin, Ma Yongcheng, Gao Feng, Luo Xiang, Wei Bin, Gu Dayong, Qiu Ju, Zhang Yong
Under the influence of these eight tigers, Ming Wuzong set up a "leopard room" outside the imperial city, the so-called "leopard room", which has two meanings, one is the real tiger beast flock, raising a lot of beasts. The other layer means a place for Ming Wuzong to play and indulge! Here he doesn't have to follow the rules of the palace, he can play as much as he wants!

In the "Leopard Room", there are eight tigers who have been recruited by Ming Wuzong from all over the country, and they have also raised a lot of tigers, leopards and other wild beasts for him, often holding parties here, what beasts to fight, drinking and having fun, and so on!
Among these eight tigers, Liu Jin was the most vicious one, as early as the beginning of his reign, Emperor Mingwuzong favored this eunuch and made him the head of the ceremonial supervisor.
Qiu Ju's Admiral East Factory, Gu Dayong's AdmiralTyu West Factory, Zhang Yong's Twelve Regiment Battalion and Divine Machine Battalion, and so on, are all some secret service agencies. As long as the minister dared to disobey his own will, he would secretly die!
In addition to indulging in eroticism, Emperor Mingwuzong also built a large number of civil engineering, in order to expand the imperial palace, he wantonly plundered the land of the people, which aroused the anger of the people, he traveled many times along the road to harass the people, heard that he was coming, and hid in the mountains to avoid disaster!
In the fourteenth year of Zhengde, the group of ministers prevented Ming Wuzong from touring the south, angering Ming Wuzong, and he ordered the punishment of more than a hundred ministers who obstructed his southern tour, resulting in the death of eleven people at a time.
Just such an emperor accelerated the Ming Dynasty to the end!
In October 1520, the emperor, who had indulged all his life, almost drowned himself in an accident on the way back to Beijing from Nanjing because he was taking a pleasure in a cruise ship. Since then, his health has continued to deteriorate, and by the following spring, he can no longer go to the court!

In this life, he had no heirs, and until his death, there was no clear who would succeed to the throne, so he entrusted all the aftermath to the ministers, and was finally succeeded by Zhu Houxuan, the grandson of Emperor Mingxianzong
History gives the following assessment:
"It is fortunate to use the handle of man to handle oneself, and the bingjun ministers to make up for Tho Kuang's salvation is to disrupt the dynasty, not to die in danger."
"If the legacy of Emperor Xiaozong is inherited, the discipline is prudent, and there is the discipline of the Lord, then the name of Guotai will be completed, and it will be the most important for posterity to discuss it!"
