Live broadcast: Ancient people accompany me to make up lessons

[The computer pulled out various photos she had saved before, and Xiaoxiao began to introduce them.

"About the Opium War, opium, also called opium, commonly known as opium, is an extract of poppy flowers and contains more than 20 alkaloids, which can be divided into phenanthrenes and isoquinolines.

As early as the Tang Dynasty, Arab traders brought opium poppy into the country and sold it as a medicine for relieving cough and treating dysentery; in Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica", opium was also a precious medicinal material, mainly used to treat "dysentery and prolapse of the anus". "

It can be seen that at that time, the medical effects of poppy and opium had reached a considerable level.]

Looking up at the red flowers above, Sun Simiao, who had never seen this medicine before, first made a note of it. Something that could cause a war would definitely not be as simple as a medicine.

12-year-old Li Shizhen was dumbfounded as the anchor spoke, accompanied by various pictures and written materials.

Li Shizhen, the medicine sage, was born in the Ming Dynasty, with dates of birth and death.

Although his family wanted him to take the imperial examination, his family had been doctors for generations, so it was not impossible for him to study medicine in the future.

So, this "Compendium of Materia Medica" was written by me?

["The Ming Dynasty Huidian" records the opium tribute paid by Asian vassal states to the Ming royal family.

It is said that the kings of Siam, Java, and Bangladesh regularly sent tribute missions to country Z. Among the tributes were opium, but it was called "Usian" at the time.

During this period, the practice of eating raw opium became popular among China’s upper class because it could give people a sense of ‘euphoria’.

It is said that Emperor Wanli did not go to court for 30 years, but he experimented and took elixirs in the palace. His elixirs contained opium, and he named the opium 'Fushou Gao'. "

The name Fushou Yao was very familiar, and Xiaoxiao never expected that the famous person would be Wanli. 】

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had just founded his country and had no tribute so far, remembered these countries and this Wuxiang. When he heard this Wanli, his expression darkened.

It’s this kid again who has been taking pills in the palace for decades without going to court. He is unfilial to his descendants!

Jiajing, who was closest to the legendary grandson, saw that eating pills was still a bit subtle. He began to think, is there this black fragrance in the tributes from the vassal state?

"His excuse for not going to court was dizziness and vertigo. In fact, the main reason was excessive indulgence and opium addiction.

After Dingling was excavated, scientists conducted tests on the body of Emperor Wanli and found that his bones contained morphine, which confirmed the above point of view. "

In the black-and-white photo on the anchor's computer, two short-haired young men squatted and stood. The squatting one took notes with pen and paper. There were scattered human bones on the ground. 】

Many people also feel that although the future generations will be very different, it is still too advanced to hear the words "excessive sexual indulgence" from a girl like the anchor.

But when they heard what she said behind her and the black and white photo, everyone's attention was completely diverted from the moral aspects of men and women.

"Excavation of Dingling Tomb, analyzing the bones... what are they doing!"

They openly excavated the imperial tombs and insulted the emperor's bones. The living emperors were all blinded when they saw this.

Will they be treated the same way as Wanli thousands of years later?

Some emperors thought that since they were very diligent and would not go to court for 30 years to take elixirs, they should not be treated like this.

Thinking of this, Jiajing, who was suddenly stimulated and wanted to go to court properly, thought about it. He was not showing off now and was serious about going to court every day.

Besides, what if, what if he doesn't need the tomb?

Not to mention that the emperors' eyes were darkened, even ordinary people couldn't accept it.

"Aren't their scientists all building machines to study weather and food? How can we still do this? Still..."

The horrified onlookers were speechless.

This is digging graves, right? After digging graves, you also dig out other people's bodies. Look at the bones scattered on the ground. What on earth are you studying!

Even if your descendants no longer have any respect for the previous emperor and his identity as emperor, you wouldn't treat other people's bones like this.

All of a sudden, all major dynasties were cast a shadow on matters after death, and they were very afraid that one day they would be dug up by future generations, and their coffins would be opened and their bodies dissected.

"During the Ming Dynasty, the Dutch invaded Southeast Asia, and Indian opium began to flow to China in large quantities. The number of Chinese people eating raw opium was increasing, especially in the coastal areas of Guangdong and Fujian. A trend had formed among wealthy gentry and landlords.

The real widespread popularity of opium in China occurred in the late Ming Dynasty. At this time, opium was no longer eaten raw, but smoked cooked and heated with a pipe.

When opium is smoked, the morphine content in it makes people feel more comfortable, but it also causes more harm and makes it easier to become addicted.

In the late Ming Dynasty, opium smoking was already an elegant and expensive entertainment behavior for the royal nobles. It appeared in Chinese society as a high-level enjoyment.

The demonstration effect of the upper class caused opium to become popular among the people.

At this time, opium had been transformed from a medicinal product into a pleasure product, and gradually penetrated downwards. ”]

"What is good at the top will be good at the bottom. The princes and nobles will like it, and the local gentry will follow it. Ordinary people will follow it when they have money, just like Wushi San."

Li Shimin didn't know how addictive the comfort of smoking was, but he had an intuition that something was wrong with this thing.

The Hanshi Powder in the Three Kingdoms time and space was killed by the anchor before it became popular, but in other time and space, they knew how much celebrities in the Wei and Jin Dynasties pursued this thing.

As for this thing, just smoking it makes people feel happy all over the body, and the side effects are probably not much smaller than those of Wushi Powder.

"One of the reasons for the popularity of opium in the late Ming Dynasty has a lot to do with the ban on smoking tobacco at that time.

Tobacco came from the Americas and was introduced to Taiwan, Zhangzhou, Quanzhou and other regions during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. By the Chongzhen period, it had become widespread in society.

Since the pronunciation of the characters "Yan" and "Yan" are similar, in the eyes of the imperial court, the people calling "eating cigarettes" the same as eating "Yan" (Beijing) were suspected of rebellion.

In the tenth year of Chongzhen's reign, the emperor issued a nationwide ban on smoking. The following year, he issued strict regulations: Anyone who sells tobacco (tobacco) privately or sells it to outsiders, regardless of the number, will be beheaded.

As a result, many people addicted to smoking at that time had to smoke opium as a substitute, which stimulated the popularity of opium. ”]

The four emperors of the Ming Dynasty were silent.

If tobacco is also addictive, or causes a large number of people to waste money, it would be fine to ban it, but because of this homophony...

Zhu Di, who has made his capital in Beijing, has a twisted expression on his face. What kind of descendants are these? Can't you find some other reason? Is it possible that he has to control the swallows flying north and south every year?

There were other places along the coast in the early Qing Dynasty where tobacco enthusiasts nodded in unison. They were just smoking, which had something to do with the rebellion.

["Now, let's take a look at its harm."

What he said must have made his senses feel light. Xiao Xiao dug out the videos he had collected and played them for them to watch. 】

Nervous system, dopamine, source of pleasure?

The doctors just took notes and recorded the previous normal physiological functions of the body.

Li Chunfeng looked at Sun Simiao next to him and asked, "So the morphine in this opium stimulates people's brain nerves?"

Thinking of Five Stone Powder, Sun Simiao nodded: "That's how it should be introduced, I'm afraid the harm will be endless."

After getting rid of the ignorant childhood, happiness is an emotion that is difficult to obtain, but this thing can directly stimulate the brain nerves and make people feel happy. What happens when the happiness disappears?

[After smoking, it acts on the hippocampus and amygdala of the brain, producing strong emotional experiences such as "pleasure" and "euphoria" and "memories" of emotional colors. The experience is profound and one hundred times higher than ordinary happiness. Lasting, even unforgettable.

When the pleasure disappears, there is a relative or absolute lack of dopamine in the brain's reward circuit. People who return to reality often cannot accept this gap.

They will have a strong "craving" for stimulation sources, and they will also have emotions such as "cannot find the feeling", "have no interest", "cannot be happy" and "have no motivation" for many things.

In the damaged frontal lobe of the brain, judgment and control will be reduced, and cognitive and thinking functions will be severely damaged. People with a gentle personality will become extreme, stubborn, irritable, irritable, and emotional.

They don't care about work, study, or family. They are no longer interested in anything in real life. They just want to experience that feeling again.

It is a common thing for these people to empty out their family's money, sell their parents' coffins, sell their wives and children, and go bankrupt just for a puff of smoke...]

The marquee video did not mention any specific cases, and the tone was very bland, but the words 'uncommon' are already extremely rare in people's eyes nowadays.

They only half-understood the scientific analysis, but in those black-and-white photos, there were people holding cigarette poles with drunken expressions, skinny people not letting go of the things in their hands, and standing in a row. Men and women all had the same satisfied expression. .

They were indifferent to their surroundings. They narrowed their eyes and took a sip as if it was a great pleasure.

Looking at these photos, people from all dynasties felt chills all over their bodies.

A smart person can imagine how dangerous this thing is just by thinking about it.

You don't need to do anything, just lie down and take a puff of smoke to reach the peak of happiness in your brain. You can buy it with money, and everyone who touches it will keep paying for it.

Of course Sun Simiao had never come across this before, but he was also someone who had been hiking in the mountains to collect herbs all year round, and his body had experienced extraordinary pleasure during exercise.

This kind of happiness is definitely incomparable to the direct stimulation above.

When the brain is stimulated like this, a person will never forget that feeling for the rest of his life. After he returns to reality, he will only do one thing - try again.

As a doctor, he has lived for so many dynasties, so he has seen a lot. There are many people who can't even get rid of small problems and desires, let alone this kind of temptation.

He closed his eyes and couldn't bear to look at the skinny people holding cigarette poles in the photo. He felt even more uncomfortable when he thought that this thing was more harmful than Wushi Powder and was originally used for normal medicinal purposes.

Regarding drug abuse and supervision, a strong court must also take good care of it.

Jiajing, who wanted to practice Taoism and become an immortal to refine elixirs, had never thought of touching this thing, and his face was ashen.

It is not their fault that the vassal states made medicine and paid tribute. It's obviously just medicine, but who invented the way to turn medicine into such a harmful thing.

However, the video on the marquee hasn't finished yet. Compared with addiction and damage to people and families, the damage it causes to the human body is also not small.

[In addition to the addiction that is difficult to quit and the damage to the brain, it also causes huge harm to the body of the addict.

Inhalation methods such as nasal inhalation and hot inhalation can cause damage to the human respiratory system and are prone to tracheitis, bronchitis, emphysema, etc. In more serious cases, symptoms such as loss of smell, nasal septum perforation, chronic rhinitis, and difficulty swallowing may occur. .

Excessive inhalation can inhibit the respiratory center, slow down or stop breathing, lead to brain hypoxia, and then cause cerebral edema or death.

The autoimmune system will decline across the board, and even ordinary diseases can cause serious illness or even death.

[…]

Fortunately, the dynasties that did not have this thing in their own time have remembered this thing. Ordinary people do not want their families to be destroyed, and rulers do not like this kind of thing that will seriously endanger their rule.

[Turn off the video explaining the dangers, and Xiaoxiao continues to talk.

“By the early Qing Dynasty, opium smoking had developed from a few areas into a widespread bad habit in society at that time.

In order to curb this bad habit, Emperor Yongzheng issued the world's first anti-smoking (opium) order in 1729. However, this order did not have any effect because opium could also be sold as a medicinal material at that time.

Before the Opium War, the Qing government still ostensibly strictly prohibited opium smoking. After Yongzheng, new emperors would issue new anti-smoking laws, and each generation became more stringent.

In 1817, Emperor Jiaqing had explicitly banned the import of opium and strictly prohibited the cultivation of opium poppies. ”]

Emperor Yongzheng?

Calculating the time, they are now in 1712, and this ban was only 17 years ago, so he will be the next emperor after Kangxi.

Yong? Fourth child?

In the Qianqing Palace, everyone's eyes suddenly turned to Lao Si, who was supporting the old man.

Yinzhen's face was expressionless and he pretended that he didn't see it. Kangxi had a panoramic view of these sons' eyebrows and lawsuits. He slapped the paperweight on the imperial desk and a clear voice brought them back to their senses.

I'm not dead yet, all sons should be honest.

Kangxi: "Go on, listen together!"

Within a few years, smoking this stuff had become a bad habit in society, which meant that there were countless such people in the Qing Dynasty.

Looking at the thin men with braids in flag uniforms and sitting in the warm palace in the photos above, Kangxi felt that his heart was colder than the ice and snow outside.

All those gadgets have to be bought, and the prerequisite for them is to have spare money in their hands, and there are so many people from the Eight Banners who have fixed spare money who have nothing to do, and they are always curious to buy them.

Thinking about the Eight Banners disciples who had already begun to behave badly, Kangxi was really frightened.

Doctors really want to scold people for doing such unscrupulous things in the name of medicinal materials. This is the greatest slander against medicinal materials.

The emperor's officials were more on the 'surface'.

This kind of harmful thing is already known to be a social hazard. It has been banned since the ancestor Yongzheng. How come it is still on the surface later?
