How strange is the Japanese royal family?
Chrysanthemum Dynasty, firmly on the throne in 2680, up to now, a total of 126 generations, in order to preserve blood purity, the Chrysanthemum Dynasty has been married for hundreds of years by close relatives, and the children born as a result are either brain or leg crippled.
But this is not the limit of the Japanese, this strange chrysanthemum dynasty, I believe it can refresh your cognition.
Although Japan is a patriarchal society on the surface, Japan's supreme god, Amaterasu, is a woman, so the entire Japanese society is also permeated with a cult of female reproduction.
The Japanese imperial family has also quietly become the spiritual pillar in the hearts of the Japanese people.
And in order to maintain the purity and nobility of the royal bloodline, the royal family is also painstaking, in line with the principle of "fertile water does not flow into the fields of outsiders".
The Japanese imperial family is also not worthy of their title of "Chrysanthemum Dynasty".
Members of the royal family can only marry within the clan, and in history, many Japanese emperors have married wives, either sisters, nieces, aunts, and even three sisters marrying older brothers or younger brothers.
Although the whole country of Japan has a little proclivity in this regard, the children of the Japanese imperial family have never been prosperous enough, and even a little disabled.
For example, the famous Emperor Meiji, who had five brothers, either died in infancy or died early.
And he himself gave birth to 15 children, 10 died in infancy.
Even his own crown prince, the only adult male Ding, later Emperor Taisho, suffered from physical and mental weakness, meningitis, cerebral thrombosis, diabetes, and mental illness.
Emperor Hirohito, a later war criminal in World War II, also suffered from certain genetic diseases, and the fingers of his right hand were often paralyzed and inconvenient to move.
The current emperor, Naruhito, also has a physical defect, that is, infertility.
It was precisely because of hereditary diseases that Emperor Akihito broke the stereotype and married a commoner woman as an empress to improve the genes of the imperial family.
However, the Japanese imperial family, which will be passed down for 8,000 generations, is facing a crisis of extinction.
Emperor Naruhito, the 126th emperor of Japan, has no son, only a daughter.
His younger brother, Prince Fumihito, in order to give his brother an heir, asked the 40-year-old Princess Noriko to do IVF.
It is already an advanced maternal age, and there are pregnancy complications.
I finally conceived the child to the seventh month, but I did not expect to have placenta previa.
There is no way, but to choose a cesarean section to liberate the child in advance.
The birth of Prince Yuhito gave a shot in the arm to the Japanese royal family, which has not given birth to a male child in 56 years.
The royal family did not put down the packaging for Prince Yuhito.
What can read a thousand characters at the age of three, memorize Tang poetry at the age of five, compose at the age of six comparable to a college student, familiarize himself with the four books and five classics at the age of seven, be proficient in poetry and song at the age of eight, and will also engage in invention.
With the blessing of these gifted, prodigy thoughts.
Prince Yuhito's popularity in Japan has always been long-standing.
It will always be the C position of the royal family.
But as the saying goes, it is the mule that pulls out to slip out, and paper cannot contain the fire after all.
Prince Yuhito soon revealed his not very intelligent horse's feet.
First was exposed by the media, 8 years old and recognized the wrong father, and then it was exposed, the exam substitute test, and even his so-called invention was completed by others, he was just a signature.
Later, Prince Yuren lost his face in front of the media again, and he couldn't even add or subtract, multiply and divide.
After these things were exposed, the public's trust in the Japanese imperial family directly fell to the freezing point.
However, there are only 16 members of the Japanese royal family, and Prince Yuhito is the only one of the three male members.
And the Japanese emperor can only be inherited by men, so the succession of Prince Yuhito to the throne is already a sure thing.
In the future, the burden of royal family reproduction also fell on his shoulders alone.
It is said that the Japanese Diet, in order to ensure the stability of the imperial family, is preparing to restart the concubine system.
Perhaps only this can save the now "endangered" Japanese imperial family.
Will Princess Ji, who gave birth to the only male Ding in 56 years, become the Empress Dowager?
The Japanese royal family is not like the European royal family, who is born first, who is the first heir.
Due to the influence of the Chinese cultural circle, the Japanese imperial family adopted the rules of "there is a concubine, there is no concubine", and "no son chooses good inheritance from the same clan".
Although there have been 13 female emperors in the history of the imperial family, they were all short-lived, and they were only compromises to avoid the emptiness of the imperial throne.
So Emperor Naruhito's current position is quite awkward.
Because Emperor Naruhito had only one daughter, Princess Aiko, and what the imperial family needed was a male heir.
Originally, Emperor Naruhito and the Diet had been fighting for a long time, and he had always hoped that Princess Aiko could become an imperial heir.
But his younger siblings broke the royal family's current anxiety.
Princess Ji risked her advanced maternal age and gave birth to the first male in the 56-year history of the royal family.
Many people say that Princess Ji Zi will not give birth sooner or later, but when the royal family is about to agree to the identity of the heir of Princess Aiko, the scheming calculation is about to be broken.
Concubine Ji Zifei is also a commoner, and her identity and family status are much worse than those of her sister-in-law and mother-in-law.
But her love with Prince Fumihito has aroused the envy of many Japanese girls.
After all, at that time, being able to become a princess was not a simple thing in itself.
And Princess Ji and Prince Fumihito also had children quickly, and the two gave birth to 2 daughters and 1 son together.
Many people even directly regard Prince Yuhito as the future heir to the throne.
After all, Empress Masako suffered from depression because she could not give birth to a son, and her mother-in-law was even worse, and she was tortured in the palace and became aphasia.
However, Emperor Naruhito did not accept this stubble at all, and in 2020, he announced that his younger brother Prince Fumihito would be the heir to the throne.
Prince Yuhito Emperor was afraid that he would have to wait for his father to succeed to the throne.
