However, there are also many special situations in history, such as the interruption and reconstruction of a dynasty (such as the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty), or the fact that the monarchs in the whole territory of the earliest unified dynasty were not the same person (such as Temujin and Kublai Khan in the Yuan Dynasty). In the above two cases, the monarch who rebuilt the dynasty and the monarch who finally unified the dynasty are also qualified to be called "the founder", but in order to distinguish them from the existing "Taizu", they are called "the founder".
Although his seniority ratio is low, he founded the Eastern Han Dynasty and was the founding king, so he should be called "Zu". Although his martial arts play an important role in civil affairs, he did not start a new era of the dynasty from the perspective of feudal dynasty, so he should be called "Zong".

After the demise of the Shang Dynasty, the Zhou Dynasty did not continue the temple name system of the Shang Dynasty, but continued to develop the posthumous title system of the Shang Dynasty. Therefore, the monarch of the Zhou Dynasty had posthumous title, but no temple name. After Qin Shihuang established the first centralized dynasty in China-the Qin Dynasty, the temple name was abolished together with the posthumous title system. The reason is that the decision of "temple name posthumous title" will lead to the situation that "the son will discuss the father and the minister will discuss the monarch", so the burial law and the monarch were abolished. Therefore, from the Zhou Dynasty to the Qin Dynasty, temple names were abolished for nearly a thousand years.
The former king, who has made great contributions to the country and is worthy of eternal sacrifice by future generations, will especially catch up with the temple number and see the significance of eternal sacrifice.
