Again many emperors of the late Tang dynasty were mere puppets. One of the emperors of that era complained that he was under the leash of the household slaves.
By the way, have you read Ray Huang’s 1587? If the Ming court was indeed as portrayed in that book, then the emperor really wielded little power and the bureaucracy ran every thing. When the statesman ZhangJuZheng was in charge, emperor WanLi was little more than a figure head. The book mentioned that the empress dowager even threatened to dethrone him. That doesn’t sound like the mandate of heaven was much of help.
The book is also sympathetic to emperor ZhengDe who tried to break free from the bureaucratic shackles. Emperor WanLi couldn’t even choose his own heir and went on a 40 year strike against the bureaucracy.
The emperors of the Qing dynasty wielded more power, but emperor ShunZhi was a puppet of his regent. Emperor KangXi had to resort to conspiracy to remove his regent from the court. One can easily imagine a scenario where the conspiracy backfired. Finally, empress dowager CiXi ruled China for over 40 years through two puppet emperors and would have dethroned emperor GuangXu had the western power not interfered. Apparently Confucianism didn’t do emperor GuangXu much good. As the Taiwan historian BoYang once wrote, the emperors of China were the most insecure individuals in the empire.
