Water is something we drink every day, and we can't live without water. However, Empress Dowager Cixi only drank a cup of boiled water all her life, which puzzled many people. However, it is true and clearly recorded in history. The only cup of boiled water that Empress Dowager Cixi drank in her life was given to her by Li. At that time, when Eight-Nation Alliance invaded China, they were on the run, and there was nothing else to drink. Empress Dowager Cixi was thirsty.
Empress Dowager Cixi's life is very luxurious, and because Empress Dowager Cixi pays great attention to health, her daily necessities are very special. In the daily life of Empress Dowager Cixi, there is no such thing as boiled water. The water she drinks is scented tea, and it is the best tea. The water for making tea was also specially sent from Yuquan Mountain. In addition, the mouthwash water that Empress Dowager Cixi wakes up every morning is not ordinary water, but dew on the petals in the morning. At the same time, various supplements and nutrients are essential to her life. The most shocking thing is that she always drinks human milk before going to bed, because she thinks drinking human milk is good for her skin.
It is precisely because the life of Empress Dowager Cixi is so luxurious that many people dare not imagine it, so it also created her experience of drinking boiled water only once in her life, and she had to drink that cup of boiled water at that time. If she didn't have that experience, she would never drink boiled water in her life.
