Anyone here familiar with China's history? In the game Mario is Missing!, there is an Emperor of China called Yung Lee mentioned who built the Gate of Heavenly Peace back in the 4th century. Strangely, there are no reasonable results when searching Google for that name. Also, according to Wikipedia, the gate was built in the 15th rather than the 4th century. Does anybody know which Emperor the game's talking about? Time Questions 10:07, 24 August 2008 (EDT)

(I know this question is nearly two years old, but meh...) To my knowledge, there is no Emperor called Yung Lee; from the information provided here, I'm fairly certain it's the Yongle Emperor the game is talking about, as "Yǒnglè" is reasonably similar to what they rendered as "Yung Lee" and he was the reigning Emperor in the year the Tiān'ānmén was constructed - which was indeed 1417, not the 4th century; I have no idea how they could get that wrong to such a degree.--vellidragon 09:56, 30 May 2010 (EDT)
