filial piety. It is the foundation of the ancient Chinese dynasties. Many people may not understand why”filial piety comes first” among the”100 Good Deeds”. Then I feel that filial piety, foolish filial piety, and various filial piety stories praised in”Twenty-Four Filial Piety” are all feudal dross. But were all the ancients idiots? Don’t they see how filial piety like”burying children to serve their mothers” is deformed? Can’t you see how stupid the story of”lying on the ice to beg for a carp” is? You want to feed your old mother fish. Roast it with fire, use a shovel to chisel it… or if it doesn’t work, just give it two punches on the ice! Which one is not more efficient than lying on the ice?
But. In this way, a bunch of stories that are extremely stupid in the eyes of later generations and even people at the time can be passed down for thousands of years. It can be seen that the story is only external. The filial piety that needs to be emphasized is the foundation! filial piety. It is not just a moral imperative. It is also a powerful tool to consolidate rule – and the cheapest one. Filial piety in the narrow sense is the support of children to their parents. Filial piety in a broad sense refers to the obedience of juniors to elders and subordinates to superiors. In ancient China, where productivity was backward. The family is the smallest unit of society and the most basic component of society. Filial piety is not only a moral standard, but also a bond that maintains family stability and thus social stability. It is filial piety at home. After becoming a monk, filial piety advances and transforms into loyalty. The ancient emperors regarded themselves as the kings and fathers of the world. The Son of Heaven is not only the supreme ruler of China, but also the supreme patriarch of the Chinese family. thus. Since the Western Han Dynasty. Adding the word”filial piety” to the posthumous titles of emperors became an iron rule for agreeing on common names. A historical system can be passed down for more than two thousand years. It must not be accomplished by relying solely on the literal words ‘ancestral instruction’.
Behind it, there must be a deeper social role and governing role. Only with enough interest can the same system be revitalized in different eras…… The external expression of filial piety is respect for the elderly. Just like Li Shimin. Zhenguan reigned for 23 years. Issued 28 pension edicts. Those over the age of 60 are exempt from labor tax. If you are over 80 years old, you will be given two meters, two stones, five pieces of cloth, and you can designate one person as an attendant (caregiver). Over 90 years old, two people serve as attendants. Over 100 years old, if there are five servants, the annual reward will be doubled. It is equivalent to the imperial court paying to support the elderly. So when we see that the average age of Chinese people in later generations reaches 74 years old. Li Shimin immediately settled a financial account. According to the population of later generations, it was several times that of the Tang Dynasty. The pension expenses given every year……It’s an astronomical number! “Unimaginable!” “Auxiliary machine, why do you think this generation of people can live so long?” Li Shimin asked in shock. Changsun Wuji was also shocked. “this……I don’t even know!” He has never seen such an outrageous thing! Others were also involved in heated discussions at this time. “74 years old? impossible! Absolutely impossible!” “How many people were over 80 years old in our Tang Dynasty? In future generations, everyone can live to be 74? It’s incredible!” “The warrior is just vulgar! Can you understand the word per capita? I’m talking about per capita, not everyone!” “But that’s still outrageous!” “It’s unbelievable, how did later generations do it?” No one will be surprised by this horrific figure…….
【The average life expectancy of each province in China is as follows:】 【First place, Shanghai, average age 】 【Second place, Beijing, average age 】 【Third place, Tianjin, average age 】 【Fourth place, Zhejiang, average age 】 【Fifth place, Jiangsu, average age 】 【Sixth place, Guangdong, average age 】 【No. 7, Shandong, average age 】 【Eighth place, Liaoning, average age 】 【Ninth place, Hainan, average age 】 【No. 10, Jilin, average age 】 【No. 11, Heilongjiang, average age 】 【No. 12, Fujian, average age 】 【No. 13, Chongqing, average age 】 【No. 14, Guangxi, average age 】 【No. 15, Anhui, average age 】 【No. 16, Hebei, average age 】 【No. 17, Shanxi, average age 】 【No. 18, Hubei, average age 】 【No. 19, Sichuan, average age 】 【No. 20, Hunan, average age 】 【No. 21, Shaanxi, average age 】 【No. 22, Henan, average age 】 【No. 23, Inner Mongolia, average age 】 【No. 24, Jiangxi, average age 】 【No. 25, Ningxia, average age 】 【No. 26, Xinjiang, average age 】 【No. 27, Gansu, average age 】
【No. 28, Guizhou, average age 】 【No. 29, Qinghai, average age 】 【No. 30, Yunnan, average age 】 【No. 31……】 【……】 【In summary, the national average life expectancy: years】 ——”Hunan as a whole is years old, and our Changsha is years old!” ——”This is true. The elderly people here all live to be in their 80s, and there are relatively few who are in their 90s.” ——”It’s true, I’ll be 87 next year [dog head]” ——”Oh my god, I still have to live for so long!!!” ——”Trivia: Although our average life span is 74, our average healthy life span is 68, which means that we live with diseases for more than 6 years. What we really need to improve is the average healthy life span!” ——”I do feel that there are more and more old people around me. There are only a group of old men and women left in my hometown in the countryside. There were not so many in the past!” ——”I heard that the average life span of ancient people was only more than 30 years old? Now we have doubled?” ——”Nonsense, right? How could the life span of ancient people be so short?” ——”Trivia: Average life expectancy is a very complex calculation formula, which is used to calculate the infant mortality rate. Think about the medical conditions in ancient times and the infant mortality rate…….” ——”Yes, let’s talk about the Qing Dynasty alone. Four of Shunzhi’s eight sons died in infancy, 11 of Kangxi’s 35 sons died in infancy, and six of Yongzheng’s 10 sons died in infancy. That’s more than half! Even the emperor’s son can’t be saved, let alone ordinary people.”…… See the intuitive average life span of each province in later generations. and comments on the video. Ancient people from all dynasties were shocked! It’s actually true? Can people in later generations really live such long lives? The people of the world can’t stand it any longer! “Could it be that the people of later generations were born in the fairy world? Surprisingly, everyone can live to be seventy or eighty years old! Oh my God, this is unheard of!” “envious! I wish I could be born in the hereafter!” “Qing? I remember this was the last dynasty after our Ming Dynasty, right? Should! Whoever dared to steal our Ming Dynasty deserved the death of their emperor, haha!” “I heard that His Majesty is refining elixirs. Could it be that people in future generations can take elixirs and live so long?” “Yeah! This must be the reason!” ?People from all dynasties and generations discussed it a lot.
They were surprised by the high life expectancy of future generations. I’m also curious as to why it’s so high!…… The Qing Dynasty plane. Qianlong was very unhappy. The royal secrets of his family were openly discussed. This is disrespectful to the royal family! And the discussion is actually over. Are you still being used as negative material? Let the people discuss how many sons their Qing emperor had died? How can he bear this? “Heshen, do you think what is said in this canopy is true or false?” He Shen said almost without thinking. “Your Majesty, this is of course false.” “The comments in Tianmu said that the average life span of my dynasties and generations is only more than 30?” “How can this be?” Qianlong nodded. He also saw this comment. Same. He thinks this is a complete lie! The average life expectancy in ancient times was only more than 30? What a joke! I, He Shen, Ji Xiaolan…..Among the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, who are under 30 years old? I guess it’s only ten fingers at most, right? “It is really shameless for future generations to advocate prosperity for future generations and to slander our ancestors.” Qianlong made a qualitative decision on Tianmu…… The Ming Dynasty plane. Lao Zhu was even more shocked at this time. People in later generations can live 78 even if they are ordinary people.
And his dragon sons and grandsons. A large number of people in their 30s died suddenly. Doesn’t this make my old man even more sad? “Biao’er, from now on, I, the descendants of the Zhu family, must not only study, but also keep fit!” “Oh, by the way, we also need to set some rules for the harem.” “The total number of wives and concubines of any clan member shall not exceed 3!” “Sex is like a steel knife for scraping bones, tenderness is the best way to kill one’s energy, hum! You know, those short-lived emperors must have had a lot of licentious bad eggs!” Lao Zhu has misunderstood future generations. Among his descendants, there are emperors who love to cultivate immortality, some who love to be carpenters, some who play the role of generals and love to raise leopards. Although there are some who are addicted to beauty, they are not what he imagined. so many “yes.” Zhu Biao kept it in mind. Let the emperors of the Ming Dynasty live longer. This is a top priority!…… The Tang Dynasty plane. Li Shimin is very interested in the novel concept of”infant mortality rate” “Auxiliary machine, is my Datang baby also extremely tall?” Li Shimin had 14 sons. Only 3 of them died in infancy. This is already a relatively low ratio. Changsun Wuji is in charge of world affairs. He is involved in everything, no matter how big or small. After thinking about it for a moment, he replied. “According to statistics from the Ministry of Household Affairs in recent years” “In my Tang Dynasty, there are about 20% families with children who died young.” “And families with more children have more premature deaths” “But this is something that has always happened, and has been the case in all dynasties throughout history.” Hearing this, Li Shimin was shocked. He grew up in an aristocratic family. He joined the army when he was young.
He knew civil affairs, but he didn’t know everything. Looking at the sky, he couldn’t help but think: “Could it be that the high life expectancy of future generations is related to the ability to avoid infant mortality?” If this is really the case. That would be terrible! More food can increase the population. And solving the problem of infant mortality can also increase the population! Just under Li Shimin’s extreme curiosity. Above the sky.
