Eat it to cure the disease and relieve hunger, and you will be twenty years younger. "This song is sung in the north and south of the river, and the vendors who sell sugar gourds still use it as an advertising song. In the past, you can only eat the sweet and sour gourd in winter when the temperature is low, but now you can taste it all year round. Rock sugar gourd is a traditional Chinese snack, called differently in different places, Called Rock Sugar Gourd in Beijing, Sugar Dun'er in Tianjin and so on. Do you know the origin of the rock sugar gourd? It is related to a woman in the Southern Song Dynasty.
It is said that the Southern Song Dynasty Emperor Guangzong Zhao Huan was a famous man who was afraid of his wife, and his empress Li Shi was fierce and fierce, and he had always been angry about Huang Guifei's favor. Once Song Guangzong saw a palace maid carrying water with a particularly white and tender hand, felt pity, and couldn't help but shout "good", was heard by Empress Li, and the next day Song Guangzong received a box, opened it, and saw that it was the palace girl's hands. Song Guangzong was depressed all day because of such a fierce wife, and only Huang Guifei could make him feel more comfortable, so he was particularly pampered.
Song Guangzong Zhao Wei
But Huang Guifei did not know what was wrong, these days has been unwell, can not eat and drink, the face is emaciated, sick look makes Song Guangzong look in the eyes, pain in the heart, looking for the imperial doctor to diagnose many times and no effect. Seeing that Aifei was getting sick day by day, but as a husband, she couldn't protect her, and Guangzong felt that he was really useless. A minister offered a plan, posted the imperial list and asked for the world's divine doctor, as long as he could cure the imperial concubine's illness, the bounty was ten thousand taels.
Soon after someone revealed, after seeing Huang Guifei's illness, he proposed one side: "The hawthorn fruit is tormented together with brown sugar, eat 5 pieces a day, and it will be cured in less than half a month." Sure enough, Huang Guifei, who ate the "folk remedy", had a great invigorated spirit, had a good appetite, greatly increased her appetite, and her face became rosy day by day, becoming more and more endearing. Why is it so effective? Huang Guifei is 80% because she usually eats too much mountain and seafood, accumulates food in the body, and has problems in the digestive system. Because hawthorn helps digestion, with brown sugar it is sweet and sour, And Huang Guifei has a taste for food, and after consumption, the body will heal. Song Guangzong was very happy and rewarded this person again. This news spread to the people, the people have followed suit, and some wise people have worn hawthorn fruits with bamboo sticks and named them "rock sugar gourd". Empress Li was angry in her heart, Huang Guifei existed one day and there was a threat to herself one day. Therefore, Empress Li decided to get rid of Huang Guifei.
One day, Song Guangzong left the palace to sacrifice, and Empress Li sent someone to beat Huang Guifei to death, and when Song Guangzong returned, he reported that he had died violently. Song Guangzong was originally irritable because he could not complete the sacrifice ceremony because of the wind and rain masterpiece that day, and then heard that Huang Guifei had suddenly died, and his heart was like a wall collapsing, and the whole person was not good. He was afraid of Empress Li, did not dare to ask what was going on, and was depressed. Since then, he has no intention of ruling the government, leaving Empress Li in control, and only living for 54 years before driving Hexi to find his beloved Huang Guifei.
Although the delicious rock sugar gourd cured Huang Guifei's illness, it did not play any role in front of the fierce Empress Li. So, for a man, you can not only give her a rock sugar gourd, but also have the ability to protect your own woman in times of danger. A weak man like Song Guangzong didn't even dare to question him, and Huang Guifei wouldn't forgive him under Huang Quan.
