Domination
Le Nhan Tong came to the throne at the age of one after the death of his father Lê Thái Tông . His mother Nguyen Thi Anh was to represent the emperor as regent up to the age of twelve. The real power in the state lay with the noble generals Lê Lợis , who were naturalized in the family and who represented their own clan structures. Le Kha and Le Thu enjoyed particular power at court . These were able to oust the competitors Le Boi and Le Liet from the center of power and, with Le Khac Phuc, formed a power bloc that controlled the court. They achieved a military victory over Champa in 1449 . They conquered the capital Vijaya and killed the king whom they replaced with one of his brothers.
Le Than Tong was considered a young man with the potential to make a good king at his court. However, he lacked advisors and his own house power. He was murdered in 1459 in a plot of his half-brother Lê Nghi Dân with the participation of the palace guard, Le Nghi Danh proclaimed himself emperor. After a few months, at the instigation of Princes Le Liet and Le Xi, he was overthrown and killed and replaced by Lê Thánh Tông , the youngest son of Lê Thái Tông .
