His diligent Confucian attitude to affairs of state meant lowered taxes, and reduced government spending, which resulted in the occasional halting of the production of Imperial porcelain at Jingdezhen, with workers relieved from time to time. However, despite the rarity due to reduced government spending, the tone of the yellow glazed wares of the Hongzhi period have been regarded as among the highest quality of the entire Ming dynasty; see Geng Baochang, Ming Qing Ciqi Jianding, Hong Kong, 1993, pp.105 and 111.

During the late Ming dynasty, however, against a background of social change and economic prosperity, some women managed to challenge these conventions. The famous late Ming philosopher Li Zhi (1527-1602) even declared in his ironically titled Book to be Burned that women were equally intelligent to men and took female students, much to general surprise. Celebrity courtesans accomplished in the genteel arts of music and literature entered male society, heralding a new model of feminine identity almost equal to the male literati. By The Kangxi reign, emerged a new ideal of accomplished females; see S.McCausland and Lizhong Ling, Telling Images of China: Narrative and Figure Paintings 15th-20th Century from the Shanghai Museum, London, 2010, pp.65-67.
