Talk:Zhengde Emperor

Impotency?

I wonder if anyone can elaborate on why the Zhengde Emperor was without heir if the article emphasizes his womanizer ways. He died at the age of 30, well past the cultural norm of pairing up and fathering many children. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Missaneurysm (talk • contribs) 11:25, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

Zhengde had several Uighur and Semu concubines who were brought to him by his Central Asian bodyguard, Yu Yong, who might have been trying to convert him to Islam.

The surname of the Mongolian speaking Semu concubine is Ma.

- How does he know which is fabricated and which is not? Especially since half of his books don’t provide proper citations and as demonstrated by a proper academic journal utilised in this article, there were many pro-Islamic myths flying around during the period. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yusufalhindi (talk • contribs) 01:39, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Died at age 29 or 31?

The intro says he died at age 29, the Infobox says 29, and the Death section says 31. Can someone confirm and hopefully provide a reference? ₪RicknAsia₪ 05:21, 17 February 2020 (UTC)

It's been changed, but still sounds a bit confusing. As I understand it, he died at 29 going by the modern way of counting someone's age. However, if we're going by the method of determining someone's age that was used during the time in which he was alive, then he was 31 years old at the time of his death.

Are those porcelain plates actually from his court?

All of the links cited show that those works of porcelain came from during his reign. None indicate a direct connection to his court. Yusufalhindi (talk) 01:33, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

Right if no one is to going to reply to this, I will remove the citations and indicate that there is no source for this. Yusufalhindi (talk) 14:16, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Interest in Hui women and interest in foreign culture?

This could help perhaps clear up some doubts regarding his beliefs and antics.

As seen in one of the talk comments, Zhu Hou Zhao was interested in foreign,namely Hui women, though sources clearly indicate that it was due to lust and not a religious preference.

The same can be said for his liking of Arabic/Persian Calligraphy, he was a fan of foreign cultures in general, having also shown an interest in Tibetan, Mongol and even Portuguese culture despite initial hostilities. 103.252.201.176 (talk) 01:52, 18 October 2024 (UTC)
