Sima Yi's father Sima Yi (A.D. 1 13- 197) was even worse. He lived to the age of 84, longer than Sima Yi.
Sima Yi's younger brother Sima Fu (A.D. 180-272) is the best in Sima's family. He lived for 92 years and experienced the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms and the Western Jin Dynasty. It serves to show how good Sima's genes are.
The second is the law of life. Although Sima Yi and Sima Fu are both high-ranking officials with busy official duties, their lives are very regular. Unlike Zhuge Liang, everyone is an alien who should eat and sleep.
Sima Fu, in particular, is not addicted to lust, and does not fight for power and profit. In the late pk battle between Sima Jia and Cao Jia, Sima Fu hid when he could, and did not participate at all. Do not forget your initiative mind stuck to the bottom line of courtiers, studied diet and exercised more, and lived a plain and regular life.
And Sima often plays? Wuqinxi? Wuqinxi is an important traditional method of guiding health preservation in China, and its creator is Hua Tuo, a famous doctor in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. Hua Tuo's disciples, such as Upp, Fan A, Li Dangzhi and others, often played wuqinxi, and all lived to be over 90 years old.
Third, the family is well-off and does not worry about food and clothing. Sima Jia has been a senior official since Sima Yi (Sima Yi's great-grandfather, that is, his great-grandfather's father) and has a carefree life. Look at the official position and you will know how good Sima Yi's family conditions are:
Great-grandfather Sima Jun, Emperor Han 'an, was then the general of the Western Expedition (equivalent to today's military commander).
Great-grandfather Sima Guanliang was the prefect of Zhang Yu (equivalent to the mayor of today's prefecture-level city).
Grandfather Sima Yi was the magistrate of Yingchuan in the Eastern Han Dynasty (equivalent to the mayor of prefecture-level cities today).
Father Sima Fang was appointed commander-in-chief of Luoyang, Jing Heqi (equivalent to the mayor of Beijing today).
The fourth is not to die. Born in troubled times, people's life span is often not determined by disease, but by war and tactics. Sima Yi's father, Sima Fang, is generous and sincere and highly valued by leaders. He will never die.
In the face of troubled times, he didn't use his wealth, reputation and intelligence to make positive progress, clinging to Dong Zhuo and taking advantage of the chaos to share a piece of it. But with loyalty to the big fellow, he left Chang 'an, an eventful place. It also avoided the tragic ending of Wang Yun and other ministers. Only then did I have eight excellent sons, who were called? Sima Bada? .
In modern society, despite the advanced medical conditions, we should learn more about longevity from the Sima family.
