When it comes to the children of Emperor Jiajing, we can't help but tell the story that the two dragons didn't meet. Generally speaking, the Ming emperors believed in Taoism, just as the Ming emperor Judy claimed to be the reincarnation of Zhenwu Emperor. Emperor Jiajing was also an emperor who was particularly obsessed with Taoism.

In the world of Emperor Jiajing, it seems that any problem can be explained from the perspective of Taoism, such as the premature death of children. Tao Wenzhong, a Taoist, explained that the two dragons did not meet.

It is said that Tao Wenzhong was originally just an ordinary Taoist in Jiajing Emperor's Palace. One day, he had a whim and put his finger on it. Of course, he may just be guessing. He told Emperor Jiajing that there was a fire somewhere in the palace, but the place he said was really on fire. Since then, Tao's position has soared.

In August of the 13th year of Jiajing, Zhu Zaiji, the eldest son of Emperor Jiajing, died young only two months after his birth. Emperor Jiajing was naturally in great pain. At this time, Tao began to count on fingers again and worked out the spell of two dragons not meeting each other. It is believed that Emperor Jiajing is a real dragon, and the eldest son of the emperor will become an emperor in the future, which is a real dragon. So two dragons will die when they meet, and the eldest son of the emperor has not grown up yet.

Emperor Jiajing doubted this, but just in case, sons like Zhu, Zhu Zaizhen are rare. Later, the second son Zhu reached the age. According to etiquette, he should give lectures as a prince.

Under the persuasion of his mother, Empress Jiang, Emperor Jiajing reluctantly agreed. When the monk ceremony was held, Emperor Jiajing appeared according to the etiquette. As a result, he didn't expect Zhu to die soon, only 17 years old.

From then on, Emperor Jiajing strictly abided by the rule that Erlong did not meet, and the other two sons, Yu Wang Zhu Zaihou and Wang Jing Zhu Zaizhen, did not meet for a long time, even showed indifference. As for the other children, they died young.

Therefore, the third son, Zhu Zaihou, should become a prince in the order of succession, but this is an extremely special situation. He stayed in the palace in embarrassment until he succeeded to the throne after the death of Emperor Jiajing.

In the forty-five years of Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing died, and the only two sons who lived to adulthood, the third son Yu Wang, succeeded to the throne as the father of Qin Long, the famous lazy emperor Wanli. King Sizijing died in Jiajing forty-four years and became the only son of Emperor Jiajing.
