# Liu Jin

> Liu Jin (1451–1510) was a Chinese eunuch who held significant power in the government of the Zhengde Emperor of the Ming dynasty from 1506 to 1510. He was part of a group of eunuchs known as the "Eight Tigers" who had been in the service of the Zhengde Emperor since his childhood. Upon the Zhengde Emperor's ascension to the throne in 1505, the "Tigers" were promoted, and Liu emerged as the dominant figure in the government. He implemented a series of reforms aimed at increasing state revenues, which also led to a rise in the influence of eunuchs at the expense of scholar-officials. These reforms sparked unrest and opposition throughout the empire. In 1510, Liu's former allies accused him of treason and he was executed.
