Emperor Taixò was the only surviving son of Emperor Meidji. He is the ancestor of the main lineage of the modern Imperial Family. Shortly after birth, the infant Heir Apparent contracted meningitis, which left him mentally and physically crippled. During his reign, he excercised no power, power being held by his advisors, and later his sons as Regents. It was later determined that the cause of his death was poisoning by anti-Chinese factions, possibly with the knowledge of the future Emperor Go-Meidji. He reiged from the death of his father, on Meidji 39, Rocugaçu 7 (July 12, 1906) until his own death on Taixò 17, Djùgaçu 19 (November 23, 1922), when he was succeeded by his second son, who became Emperor Go-Meidji
