Throughout the ages, through many different dynasties and changes, immortalized in the pages of history, no emperor had ever been the same as another. Some had brought their country peace and prosperity. Some came to bring ruin to the country and the people. Some were only concerned about enlightenment, neglecting political matters. And some were destined to cook up a storm.

Emperor Yuan He undoubtedly belonged to the 'strive for enlightenment' category; he was forgiving and lenient, senile and incompetent. His son, although sharing similar political views with his own, his style undoubtedly belonged to the kind who would cause stormy winds and turbulence.

Long An Emperor Li Feng had never believed in 'ruling a grand nation like cooking a small fish'*. He was both diligent in political matters and a strong-minded person. Since the beginning of his accession, he had strived to reinforce the leniency in handling the previous reign’s government affairs.

*A sentence from Lao Zi's Tao Te Ching(The Book of the Way and of Virtue), meaning that if one meddles too much when cooking a small fish, it will cause it to break apart. If one meddles too much in common people's affairs when ruling a country, it will cause the people to riot.

In the first year, he sent a decree for the Marquis of Order to escort the Heavenly Wolf Tribes’ Prince Jia Lai Yinghuo back to the North. At the same time, he signed the business treaty with many nations of the Western Regions, opening up the Silk Road.

Whether it was repairing the friendship with the Man tribes, or grounding the Marquis of Order in the Western Regions, ordering him to supervise the urgent expansion of the Silk Road - these actions greatly expressed the Emperor's hatred for the National Treasury gradually being hollowed out for everyone to see. It was as if he wanted to say 'If, Gu Yun, you cannot make money, then go sell yourself instead'.

In Long An's second year, Wei Wang colluded with Dong Ying people, attempting to build his own kingdom in the sea and to set off a Dragon disaster. Unexpectedly, his conspiracy was revealed while in progress. The Jiangnan Navy captured their leader in the blink of an eye. Wei Wang was imprisoned, then in the end, drank poison to 'commit suicide'.

Emperor Long An had used this as an opportunity to clean up and reinforce Jiangnan officers. Eighty-six both large and small officials were implicated, more than forty were executed, there was not enough time to slay them all by the end of fall, so it needed to be separated into three parts. The others were either demoted to servants or exiled and would never be put to use again.
