The Third Sovereign of the Ming Dynasty is mentioned as the ruler who re-occupied Taidu. The account provides no further personal history, relationships, or transformation, leaving him a brief but consequential figure in its record of changing power.
Description
The text does not describe his appearance, so his height, build, complexion, hair, eyes, and features are unknown. No particular garments or personal adornments are specified. He is identified only by his position as a Ming sovereign; any more specific portrait would be conjecture.
