Talk:Zhengde Emperor

message: 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.

message: 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)
replies: text: 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.
