Once he became Chancellor, he implemented politics based on his Duke Salindar's enlightened rule.  He set up several semi-autonomous ministries which helped serve the people's needs better due to communication gaps between Sian and rest of the Confederation.

Hendrik was well liked, both by his people and members of the Council.  However, in [[2515]] his reign took a turn for the worse when he chose to turn down a more permanent alliance with the [[Terran Hegemony]].  This would effect the flow of trade between the two nations, with the Hegemony favoring the [[Free Worlds League]].  This caused him to be a target of critics and public scrutiny.<ref>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 36: Hendrik Liao & The Lorixes - Life and times of Hendrik Liao, good years.</ref>

Hendrik was unable to change his critics minds about his fateful decision to not join the Hegemony and its effects.  He chose to resign in [[2520]] instead of using his political powers to silence his critics. Having no children of his own, he passed his titles and positions to his brother's son, [[Kalvin Liao]].

Year after Hendrik stood down, the new Chancellor used his Courts of Philosophical Inquiry and the Prefect of [[St. Ives]] to charge his uncle for treason on false charges that he intended to turn over a military base to [[House Davion]].  He was executed personally by his nephew on 12 November [[2521]].<ref name=HL:TCCp36/>
