Zhu Changluo's father is the famous Ming Shenzong. His mother, Wang, a humble maid-in-waiting, secretly blessed her one day. Unexpectedly, Wang was really pregnant and gave birth to a boy. Zongshen didn't want to admit their mother and son. After repeated persuasion, Wang Cai was named.

My favorite son, Zhu, wanted to make him a prince, but the ministers disagreed, because he was the youngest son, not the eldest son. This debate actually lasted for fifteen years, and it was a famous national struggle in the history of the Ming Dynasty. In the end, Zongshen compromised and Zhu Changluo was made a prince.

On the first day of August of the first year of Taichang, Zhu Changluo succeeded to the throne. Zheng Guifei was afraid that the emperor would hate her, so he gave the emperor jewels and eight beautiful women. Zhu Changluo has been living a dark life, but now he has finally got rid of it. He began to indulge in debauchery and soon became seriously ill after having too much sex. Guangzong was weak and should have taken tonic, but Cui Wensheng, the medical officer, gave him laxatives. Guangzong had diarrhea dozens of times a day after taking the medicine, and finally collapsed and fainted on the dragon bed. Ministers were shocked after hearing this.

Ming Guangzong was terminally ill and felt that his time was running out. At this time, a man named Li claimed that he had a red pill that could cure the disease. Guangzong seemed to seize the straw and hurriedly asked Li to take medicine for him. After Guangzong ate one, he was really refreshed and could eat. Guangzong is very happy. He ate another one the next day and felt as good as yesterday. Who would have thought that in the evening, Guangzong's condition suddenly took a turn for the worse and he died soon.

Poor Zhu Changluo, who was a prince for 30 years and an emperor for one month, died. As for whether he died of red pill, drug poisoning or poisoning, who was behind it is still inconclusive.
