Chapter 679 Seven and eight are at the prime of their lives!
During the Hongwu era, Li Jinglong burst out laughing. What he said was so funny. He didn't usually laugh unless he couldn't help it!
Zhu Yuanzhang put his arm around his shoulder and asked with a forced smile, "What, is the Zhu family's affairs so funny?"
In an instant, Li Jinglong broke out in a cold sweat, filled with regret. He wanted nothing more than to slap himself hard, yelling, "Look at your stupid mouth! What are you laughing at?!"
Seeing him like this, Old Zhu, whose mind was filled with thoughts of his father, simply couldn't bear to look at him. He had outlived several generations by himself. Damn it, it was too upsetting. Most of his descendants in the Ming Dynasty died young, and very few lived long lives!
They're almost as short-lived as those emperors of the Song Dynasty. Oh wait, the Zhao family even had an eighty-year-old Zhao Gou!
Zhu Jianshen, in the early years of the Chenghua reign, couldn't help but laugh. The description from his younger generation seemed to reflect his own dumbfounded state.
.......
The live stream is still ongoing.
"Of course, there are other long-lived people, but I won't go into details. Lifespan is finite, and immortality is impossible. I've mentioned this many times. We can only improve it through our efforts, such as our lifestyle, diet, and exercise."
Others who yearn for longevity frowned slightly, wondering: Will doing these things really extend my lifespan?
What about Zhao Hui? Wasn't it said that he lived a life of extravagance in his later years, with hundreds of concubines? Was his lifestyle normal? How could he live to be eighty?
The answer then follows: "If you do all these things and still can't live a long life, the reason should be your innate physical condition, or that you are too mentally exhausted, or that you have old injuries, etc."
"Some people inherit diseases, such as the wind-related illness in the Li family of the Tang Dynasty; similarly, some people inherit longevity."
"For example, Empress Xiaoshengxian of the Niohuru clan in the Qing Dynasty lived to be eighty-four years old. Her son, Emperor Qianlong, lived a few years longer than her, almost ninety. This shows that Empress Xiaoshengxian had the gene for longevity, because her father also lived to be over eighty."
Similarly, there was Empress Wu Zetian, who was over eighty years old. Her mother lived a very long life, reaching ninety-one, which was considered very old at the time. Then there was her eldest grandson, Emperor Xuanzong (Li Longji), who, even in his fifties or sixties, still wanted to take young girls as concubines.
During the Zhenguan era of the Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin's lips twitched. He would get angry whenever this topic was brought up. No wonder he was called Xuanzong!
"After all that talk, you haven't even mentioned how to extend your lifespan in normal times?" Cheng Zhijie scratched his head. All you've said is genetics; they're already so big, you can't just put them back in!
Fang Xuanling sighed and rubbed his forehead in exasperation. Was that the point?
The others remained silent, their minds solely focused on the secret to prolonging life. Who wanted to die young?
During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng in the Qing Dynasty, Hongli, who was still a young boy, suddenly heard that he could live to be over eighty. Heh heh, none of them could live as long as him!
He's only fifteen this year, he has over seventy years to live!
He has plenty of time, not only for himself, but also for his mother who lives a long life!
At this moment, the young Hongli, who was originally very happy, felt a little regretful. His father was not good at it. It was not that he did not play with him, but that he did not keep up!
Otherwise, wouldn't it be wonderful if all three members of the family lived long lives?
"All of the above is actually aimed at people who die of natural causes, without encountering a coup or being killed off by unforeseen events."
"There is also the issue of overworking oneself, and the chronic illnesses caused by old injuries from early battles, which also need to be taken seriously. It is important to pay attention to the balance between work and rest and to avoid staying up late."
Diligent emperors: ...
"Especially those who have unhealthy diets, who are accustomed to high-oil, high-sugar, and meaty foods, such as Emperor Wanli (Zhu Yijun), who had bad teeth and leg problems, which are inseparable from his irregular diet and hereditary diabetes."
"So, let's start with ourselves to eat healthily. That's all for this part about the Ming Dynasty. See you next time!"
Wan Chao's people: Is this how it ends so hastily?!
