Before the Ming Dynasty, the number of talented people was basically the same as that in this period, but after Jiajing, the mind was prosperous and began to blow out. Great changes have taken place in ideas and concepts, science and technology began to break out, and popular literary works such as dramas and novels in the Ming Dynasty began to prosper.

The government is in good order under the control of the cabinet.
Since the cabinet actually controls most of the power, the emperor is no longer important. The more fatuous the emperor is, the better it will be for China to move towards constitutional monarchy. In fact, the emperors in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, such as Jiajing, Wanli, Apocalypse and Chongzhen, were not fatuous, which greatly delayed the process of constitutional monarchy in China. Jiajing has a very narrow threshold, playing word games with the civilian cabinet and controlling the state affairs. Wanli, famous for its reasoning, has been fighting against civilian groups for more than 30 years with one person. Apocalypse is smarter than fools, using eunuchs to deal with progressive civilian groups. Chongzhen is diligent and competitive. . . There is only one Qin Long who doesn't care about anything. If all the emperors who came out after Jiajing were idiots like Qin Long, China would have entered capitalism long ago.
