Reign of Ren and Xuan

The Reign of Ren and Xuan (Chinese: 仁宣之治; pinyin: Rén Xuān Zhīzhì) (1424–1435) refers to the reigns of the Hongxi Emperor (r. 1424–25) and his son, the Xuande Emperor (r. 1425–35), which was considered the height of the Ming dynasty's golden age. After the Xuande Emperor's death, the dynasty began to gradually decline.
