According to tradition, the Dragon King went to the aid of imperial troops in the Ming Dynasty and was honoured by the Jiajing Emperor by edict.
Yang Tinghe (1459–1529), style name Jiefu, was a Grand Secretary in the Ming Dynasty under the Zhengde (Wuzong) and Jiajing (Shizong) emperors.
After Zhu Houcong was brought to Beijing from his parents' estate in the Hubei countryside and enthroned as the Jiajing Emperor, Yang Tinghe tried to continue his influence in the court, given the young age of the new emperor.
