If people in ancient times wanted to live a long life, they did not need to eat Quan Jian or do fire therapy, and the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic said: "The Law is in yin and yang, in harmony with the number of techniques, eating and drinking moderately, living and living constantly, not working in vain, so that they can form and be with the gods, and spend their whole days and years, and spend a hundred years is to go." "It is to pay attention to controlling a good diet, developing good habits of life, and preserving their own form, so that you can live a long life." This is a blow to those who can't sleep at night, overeat, and are thin and fat. People in the Western Zhou Dynasty were very long-lived, and it is said that King Mu of Zhou lived for hundreds of years, but there is no conclusive evidence for this statement, and later people always think that the legend of King Mu of Zhou is full of legends.
The Treatise on Balance says: "Ninety-seven and xue, the king of Wu ninety-three and collapsed." Duke Zhou, the younger brother of King Wu, was only ten years apart. King Wu collapsed, Zhou Gong lived for seven years, restored the government and retired from the old age, in and out of the hundred years old", King Wen of Zhou, King Wu of Zhou, Duke of Zhou and others are all long-lived, which shows that the Zhou Tianzi family has a longevity gene at least in these two generations, so as the zhao gong in the family is naturally long-lived, zhao gong is the "four dynasties elders" of the Wen wu chengkang era, the wen king's eastern crusade, the wu king's rebellion, the feudal princes, the zhou duke regency, the cheng wang's pro-government, and the auxiliary king Kang's figure can be said to be quite active.
The Hundred Year Secret Case of the Summoning Father
"Mencius" has "If Yan Yuan, Shou Ruo Zhao Gong", that is, the short-lived Yan Yuan is compared with the longevity of the Zhao Gong, which shows that the longevity of the Zhao Gong was very influential in the Spring and Autumn Warring States Period. So how many years has Zhao Gong lived? In the "On Balance", there are "Lao Tzu is more than 200 years old, and zhao gong is 180 years old", and later there is also "Customs and Customs": "Shou 190 is a pawn", and all the texts say that Zhao Gong lived for more than 100 years. During the Zhou Gong's Eastern Crusade and regency, Zhao Gong played a pivotal role in politics: "From the west of Shaanxi, summon princesses; from east of Shaanxi, princesses of Zhou". King Wu of Zhou died in his nineties, and the Duke of Zhou and Zhao Gong at that time were absolutely elderly even from the current point of view.
In this situation of ruin and day and night turmoil, King Wu of Zhou was obviously working hard and went west within a year or two after attacking Yin Shang, but the Second Duke of Zhou Zhao still lived for many more years. This is to tell us a truth, no matter how busy and tired a person is, it will not collapse the body, as long as there is a longevity gene, and good at maintenance, the longevity will eventually be long-lived. So, will the summons really be maintained? This also has to talk about the diet of the Zhou people. The Zhou Li says: "The king's gift, eat six grains, eat six animals, drink six qing, and shame one hundred and twenty products." Treasure eight things, sauce with a hundred with twenty urns. "The diet of the Zhou royal family is much more abundant than the so-called Manchu and Han full table that came later.
The so-called six grains are rice, millet, millet, liang, wheat, and amaranth, which are staple foods; the so-called six animals are cattle, sheep, pigs, dogs, geese, and fish, and the Zhou royal family's way of eating meat is stipulated, "Where it is appropriate to eat, cattle are suitable, sheep are suitable, and pigs are suitable, and it is natural to adopt this way of eating, such as inuyasha, yanyi wheat, and fish yizhi", this kind of exquisite matching has developed the eating habits of the Zhou royal family, and summons the prince to stay in kyoto city, often accompanied by Zhou Tianzi, and naturally often adopts this way of eating. This also tells us that today's people, no matter what they do, anyway, do not treat themselves badly when they eat, and try to eat well if they can eat well, which will be beneficial to their health.
"Zhou Li" said: "When eating Qi Mu Qi In the spring, when the soup Qi Mu is in the summer, when the sauce is in the autumn, when the qi mu is drunk in the winter", the diet of the Zhou royal family and the nobles can be seen to be quite exquisite, eating warm, drinking soup to drink hot, dipping sauce if it is normal temperature, even the drink should be ice, many noble children also like to listen to music while eating, this habit can be said to be quite enjoyable. At that time, most of the people were still in a very backward era, ordinary people if they can solve the problem of food and clothing is the joy of everyone, and as the Tianzi family's summons, do not worry about the so-called food and clothing problem, so there will be more ways of health conditioning, more importantly, the Zhou people themselves have a tradition of old-age care, the so-called "pension also, happy to their hearts, not contrary to their will, happy to their eyes and ears, rest in their sleeping place, with their diet loyal to support", and later Yan Guo Yanjun specially sent people to the capital city to support the summoning father. This is to say that the elderly must be accompanied by relatives, in order to be in a happy mood, in order to live a long life.
There was an inscription that read: "The Marquis of Yan ordered the Great Treasure of the Great Treasure to be in the Zhou Dynasty", and the emperor of the State of Yan specially arranged for his courtiers to go to the capital. "Shuowen Jiezi": "Rao, rice and rice fried also ... Rice, bud rice also... Boiled rice with buds as a feed. "What is carrot is actually what we call maltose today." "Lü's Spring and Autumn" contains: "Benevolent people get food, to raise the sick and serve the elderly", "Huainanzi" contains: "Willow under the hui to see the food, you can retire", it can be seen that maltose was a good thing for health care at that time. The taste of the elderly has always been salty and light, and they generally like to taste the sweetness, and the same will be true when they are 100 years old. Therefore, the monarch of the Yan kingdom wanted to send someone to send maltose to the capital, and most of the sons of the summoning duke were in the Yan country, and when the relatives of the Yan kingdom came and brought malt candy, the summoning prince was naturally happy in his heart.
