Which emperor of the Ming Dynasty loved to build temples?
Emperors want to prolong life and live forever. Ming Xianzong and Zhu Jianshen like Taoism. He used alchemy and medicine. Ming Wuzong liked Taoism for a while and built aisles. Emperor Sejong Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty was one of the favorite Taoist priests of the Ming Dynasty. He practiced alchemy for many years, hoping to live forever. Taoism was popularized throughout the country. Before that, the state religion of the Ming Dynasty was Buddhism. The emperor thought that inexperienced maids' menstrual cramps could ensure immortality, so he recruited a large number of thirteen-and fourteen-year-old maids and ordered alchemists to make elixirs with their maiden letters. In addition, in order to keep the ladies-in-waiting clean, they are not allowed to eat. They can only eat mulberries and drink dew. The maid-in-waiting couldn't bear it, and launched a rebellion in Renyin Palace, trying to assassinate Jiajing, but failed, and they were all executed that year. Emperor Jiajing, who survived, believed in the protection of the gods and was more keen on monasticism. Take heavy metals for many years and live to 6 1 year.
