Emperor Longqing
  • January 23 : After the death of Jiajing , his eldest son Longqing ascends the Chinese throne of the Ming Dynasty as emperor . Since he was kept away from the government by his father, who disliked him and who would have liked to inherit his empire to a younger son, the new emperor has little experience in politics. Rather calm and without personal ambitions, he attaches great importance to social justice and reform. He corrected the mistakes of the Jiajing rule, pardoned his father's unjustly punished officials and banished the Daoists from the court. He also shows talent in filling the highest state offices, especially Minister Zhang Juzheng . With his advice, Longqing embarks on a liberal reform policy: farm expenditure is restricted, the smallholders exploited by the landowners are protected and the regulation of the Yellow River and the Huai are tackled. For the maintenance of the river dams, the administrative officer Pan Jixun will be in charge of the authorities for the next 29 years. Longqing also lifts the ban on sea trade.
