The Jiajing Emperor (16 September 1507 – 23 January 1567) was the 11th Ming Dynasty Emperor of China who ruled from 1521 to 1567. His ascendance as Emperor was aided by the Templars.[1]
In 1524, tired of the Chinese Assassins' meddling, he hunted the Assassins down, aiming to destroy all who opposed in his way. Nearly all Chinese Assassins were killed, with the few survivors fleeing West to seek support from other Assassins.[1]
Jiajing sent men after them, following the Assassins as far as Italy. In Venice, they killed the mentor of a female Assassin named Shao Jun, who managed to escape them. They followed her to Florence, where she sought aid from the former leader of the Italian Assassins, Ezio Auditore da Firenze. More of Jiajing's men faced both Ezio and Jun at Ezio's house, but they were all killed.[2]
