? How old did Kangxi live? How did Emperor Kangxi preserve his health?
The emperor is the fourth, second only to Beijing, the capital, and the longest reigning emperor in the history of China. He lived to 69 years old, 6 1 year, and was inextricably linked with medicine all his life, and he also paid great attention to health preservation in his daily life. Here, I would like to introduce the Tao of Emperor Kangxi to you. & gt Pay attention to tonics without abusing them > Most emperors in ancient times preferred tonics, while Kangxi banned tonics. Regarding tonics, he once said, "It's no use taking tonics. If the nature is suitable for the heart, it should not be suitable for the spleen; What suits the lungs is not suitable for the kidneys. I warned people not to take tonics. Diet can cure diseases better than doctors. People who like to eat tonics are people who like to please Jews. Is there anything in the world that can be good for you? Old people who have reached the first grade in the state don't take medicine, and I never take medicine. Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager will not take medicine all her life. You should take this as the law. Although this passage is not without extremes, it expounds the disadvantages of "eating tonic well" from the perspective of pharmacology, which is very pertinent and really commendable from the perspective of life philosophy. When he was 57 years old, he had several white beards under his chin. A minister once presented a black beard pill for nourishing liver and kidney, but Kangxi thought it was unnecessary and laughed it off. & gt& gt Calligraphy is "broad-minded", and exercise strengthens physique. A person's health sign is reflected in psychology and physique. For psychological adjustment, Kangxi practiced calligraphy in order to achieve forgiveness (comfort). He once personally summed up an experience called "forgiveness is only a few lines", and "a few lines" can get the effect of "forgiveness". According to modern medical explanation, practicing calligraphy can play a role in regulating, relaxing and eliminating brain fatigue, and can also exercise people's patience and cultivate people's will, thus obtaining physical and mental health. Kangxi said in the poem "Copying the Ink of Two Kings" that "the bronze sparrow terrace was dewy"-although dew dripped on the bronze sparrow terrace (incense burner), it was still "like a tube (ivory pen) waving in the right heart". The word "zhengxin" embodies his professional practice of books, sincere cultivation of ambition and deep entertainment. As for personal physique, Kangxi worked hard to govern state affairs all his life and knew the importance of physique. He believes that "work hard and know how to relax" and grows vegetables in his palace in his spare time. When autumn is crisp, we go to Mulan paddock to gallop, hunt, ride horses and shoot, stretch our muscles and strengthen our physique. & gt Accept Western Medicine and Promote Western Medicine >1At the beginning of the 7th century, Tessie's Personal Description by German Deng, Personal Description by Italian giacomo Rowe and Human Anatomy by Frenchman Lippi were introduced to China one after another. In order to learn western medicine, Kangxi ordered Bai Jin, a French missionary and court painter who worked in the Qing court, to draw some anatomical figures specially, and also asked Dominique Parrenin, a missionary, to translate the anatomical figures of human bodies into Chinese, hoping to "build a society" and save "human lives", which was really commendable in the feudal society at that time. & gt For western medicine, Kangxi has a special interest in the antimalarial drug cinchona. It turned out that in the thirty-second year of Kangxi, he suffered from malaria for a long time, and many doctors were helpless. It happened that French missionaries Hong Ruohan and Liu Ying came to Beijing to learn about this matter and made special contributions to Cinchona. Kangxi was overjoyed and rewarded him with a grand building in Guang 'anmen. Since then, Kangxi regarded Cinchona as a magical medicine and gave it to ministers suffering from malaria as a "royal holy medicine" to show their love. In order to study and popularize western medicine, Kangxi also allowed to open a laboratory in the palace for missionaries to produce western medicine. Sometimes Kangxi personally asked officials for prescriptions and used both Chinese and western medicine. He tried to prevent smallpox by vaccination in the palace, and the effect was good. Later, it was promoted by imperial edict, so that the forty-nine flags and Kerkha-Mongols outside the border were also inoculated with vaccinia. "Old people thought it was strange when they first planted it," and Kangxi "insisted." & gt No Smoking > Kangxi never drank and hated smoking. However, Shi Yizhi and Chen Yuanlong, ministers, were addicted to cigarettes and never left their pockets. Kangxi intends to make them give up smoking. One year, Kangxi went to the governor of Jiangnan, accompanied by Shi and Chen Ye. The emperor's imperial car was stationed in Dezhou, Shandong Province. Kangxi gave each of them a cigarette bag with a crystal stick in front of them and asked them to smoke in public. They were flattered that they could not tell Kangxi's real intention. They immediately wrapped cigarettes and lit them. Who would have thought that as soon as I sucked hard, I could clearly see that Mars went straight through the transparent tobacco rod and crackled all the way to my lips, making a louder crackling sound. Historically, Chen Er people didn't understand the real intention of Kangxi until now. At this time, the two never dared to smoke again and quit smoking. & gt
