# Talk:Jiajing Emperor

Can the tones be indicated somehow?

Would it not be appropriate to describe his specific genealogy?  Was his father a younger son of the Chenghua Emperor, or was his connection more distant?  john k (talk) 16:15, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

According to "The Ritual Formation of Confucian Orthodoxy and the Descendants of the Sage"[1], p569, the Jiajing emperor "insisted on bestowing the title of emperor on his natal father and grandfather (who never actually served as rulers)", so it must be a more remote connection. I'll have a dig and see what I can find out. Gonzonoir (talk) 10:51, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
His father, Chu Yu-yüan (1476-1519), the Prince of Hsing, was the fourth son of the Ch'eng-hua emperor (r. 1465-1487) and the eldest son of three sons born to the emperor's concubine, Lady Shao. That's taken from The Cambridge History of China (1988), edited by Mote and Twitchett, Volume 7 Part 1, Chapter 7 (which chapter is written by James Geiss) Page 440

The Jiajing Emperor died in December 1566 or January 1567? Both dates appear in the article. Please clarify. 37.223.167.218 (talk) 13:55, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
