    Time goes back to the day Du Mingen set out.

    In Liu Jin's small courtyard in Tianjin, Zhu Houzhao was feasting on all kinds of delicacies at Liu Jin's house. While eating, he said: "Old Liu, you still enjoy it. After eating your food, I want to eat it."  All the royal chefs in the palace were taken and chopped. Is that food for human consumption?"

    Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao's gluttonous look, and then listened to his words, and also smiled.

    It is true that the level of the imperial chefs in the palace may not be very good. This is because Zhu Yuanzhang, the ancestor of the Zhu family, bought it.

    Zhu Yuanzhang divided people into three, six or nine grades, and divided them into craftsmen, farmers, military households, etc. according to their occupations. The same was true for the chefs, imperial doctors, etc. in the palace.

    This ancestor was the royal chef who cooked for the emperor, and his descendants are also the royal chefs.

    Logically speaking, if this is passed down from generation to generation, there should be some craftsmanship and the like. This skill will only become more and more sophisticated.

    But the fact is exactly the opposite. Whether it is the imperial doctor or the imperial chef in the palace, they are basically inferior to each other from generation to generation, because no matter how good their skills are, they will never lose their jobs.

    Emperors of the Ming Dynasty, especially those in the middle and later periods, rarely lived long. They basically died at the age of 20 or 30. For example, the Zhengde Emperor Zhu Houzhao later died after falling into the water. He died at the age of 31.  .

    The current Emperor Hongzhi only lived to be thirty-six years old. The following emperors, Taichang and Tianqi, were as fragile as women. Except for Jiaqing and Wanli, who were relatively long-lived, none of the other emperors lived past forty.  Year-old.

    This is not because the medical conditions in the Ming Dynasty were relatively poor. Although the emperor was short-lived, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty had surprisingly long lifespans. In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, there were a lot of ministers who lived more than fifty years old.  Most of the cabinet members are over fifty years old.

    Among the three elders in the current cabinet, Liu Jian lived to be ninety-four years old, and Li Dongyang lived to be seventy years old. It is said that he only lived so long because of poor health. As for Xie Qian, who lived to be eighty-three years old, he is also a longevity star.  .

    From this, it is enough to show that the imperial doctors in the Ming Dynasty Palace are basically idle people, and not many have real talents and knowledge. In other words, the medical skills passed down by this family are becoming less and less good as they are passed on.

    Practicing medicine requires years of accumulation, especially traditional Chinese medicine. Without years of accumulation, he cannot be regarded as a qualified traditional Chinese medicine doctor.

    The imperial doctors in the palace, because they were all imperial doctors in that era, they only treated the emperor, concubines, princes, princesses, etc. in the palace. It was difficult to accumulate any experience at all. You can imagine this level.  It is estimated that we can only follow the same example, not only will it not cure the disease, but it may also kill people.

    This may be an important reason why the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was short-lived.

    "Some people may say that the life span of emperors has not been long since ancient times. After all, the state is busy and overworked, and the harem has three thousand beauties. How can he live a long life?

    But Liu Jin, who came from later generations, knew that although the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were short-lived, the Qing emperors of the later dynasty lived a long life, and most of them were long-lived emperors.

    Qianlong lived to be eighty-nine, Kangxi and Daoguang lived to be sixty-nine, Jiaqing lived to be sixty-one, and Yongzheng lived to be fifty-eight. It can be said that all of them lived longer.

    From here we can know that there must be a reason for the short life of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. As for genetic issues, most of the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty lived longer and had many heirs, otherwise the old Zhu family would not have arrived.  When the Ming Dynasty fell, there were nearly a million descendants of the royal family.

    People in later generations who like to study history have done research in various aspects and come to the conclusion that all this was caused by Zhu Yuanzhang and the household registration system he established, which harmed future generations.

    Liu Jin shook his head slightly, just seeing Zhu Houzhao having a meal, Liu Jin thought of so many things without knowing it.

    "Phew~ I'm full, it's so delicious."

    After a long time, Zhu Houzhao touched his round belly. He felt satisfied and had a delicious meal.

    "Your Highness, if you can live up to ninety-nine by walking a hundred steps after dinner, how about we take a walk in Tianjin together?"

    Liu Jin looked at Zhu Houzhao, thought for a while and said.

    Zhu Houzhao finally came over, and he still had many things to tell him.

    "Live to ninety-nine? Isn't that too long?"

    When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he thought about it and said.

    "Umplease forgive me, Your Highness."

    When Liu Jin heard this, he thoughtIt seems more confident.

    ¡°Do you dare to make this bet with me, Your Highness?¡±

    Liu Jin smiled slightly and still said confidently.

    "Just bet, tell me, what to bet on?"

    When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he immediately replied that he did not believe that anyone would buy such an expensive house.

    "Let's bet a thousand taels of silver. It's a small gamble to make you happy."

    Liu Jin thought for a while and said.

    "One thousand taels is too little. If I finally have a chance to win against a rich man like you, I would need at least 10,000 taels."

    When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he shook his head and said.

    ¡°Well, classmate Zhu Houzhao is also very wealthy now. The glass factory alone earns tens of thousands of gold per day, and the monthly dividends make Emperor Hongzhi regret that he only asked him for one million taels of silver.

    What's more, there are many industries in Tianjin. Every one of them is a hen that lays golden eggs. He knows the monthly income very well, so he also knows that the Liu Jin in front of him is also a real rich man.  very.

    ¡°Okay, it¡¯s a deal, this house will go on sale in a few days, we¡¯ll know when the time comes.¡±

    When Liu Jin heard this, he nodded and agreed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
