Why did all the 3,000 beauties in Emperor Xuanzong's harem fall at the feet of Yang Guifei? Yang Guifei was first Tang's daughter-in-law, and later went to Taoist temple, which was a smooth road. After many twists and turns, Yang Guifei finally reached the old man's door. At this time, Yang Guifei has no age advantage. You know, time is a woman's biggest natural enemy, but it is strange that Yang Guifei can resist wind and rain. If her skin is solidified, it is not a godsend, and it can be sent away without disguise. Besides my background, I'm sure I'm good at beauty. This poem gives us the answer. It said, "The lead flower will be washed away, and it will become rich, but the fish will never stop." Black Ejiao refused to say, only that he was born a gentleman. "It turned out that Yang Guifei secretly ate Ejiao and kept her skin as solidified fat. She can dazzle the six palaces and monopolize the court's favor, and Ejiao has contributed a lot.

There is also a famous woman who also likes to eat Ejiao, that is, Empress Dowager Cixi, who "listens to politics". According to historical records, during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, Cixi, as the imperial concubine of the Li Dynasty, was pregnant with Liu Jia and unfortunately suffered from "blood disease". Although she sought medical treatment everywhere, the treatment was ineffective. At this time, Assistant Minister Dong 'e wrote a letter recommending Ejiao made in Dong 'e to the emperor and Yi Guifei. After taking it, Cixi cured the "blood disease" and gave birth to a boy, the later Tongzhi Emperor. Since then, Empress Dowager Cixi has taken Ejiao all the year round. It is said that Cixi still looks thirty or forty years old from her sixties. Among them, Ejiao contributed a lot, which is the secret of her beauty. Nowadays, Ejiao used in the court at that time was also displayed in the Palace Museum.

Ejiao has long been a good product for nourishing yin and keeping in good health among the people, with a history of more than two thousand years. It is highly respected by doctors of all ages and has the reputation of "holy medicine". In Li Shizhen, Ejiao was used throughout the Tang Dynasty? Gongci Bunian is listed as "classic top grade", and it is also called "three treasures of traditional Chinese medicine" with ginseng and velvet antler. The history of Ejiao was first seen in the year of Compendium of Materia Medica. Ejiao was born in Dongping County, familiar with cowhide and produced in East Asia. Tao Hongjing, a famous medical scientist in Southern Dynasties, said, "Shandong, hence the name Ejiao".

It turns out that Ejiao comes from Dong 'e County, Shandong Province, with donkey skin as the main raw material and boiled with well water. At first, people boiled donkey-hide gelatin with cowhide. In the Tang Dynasty, people found that the medicinal effect of Ejiao boiled with Ejiao was better, so they switched to Ejiao, which has been passed down to this day.

In the history of traditional Chinese medicine, how many herbs can be respected like Ejiao? Of course, the royal love makes Ejiao worth a hundred times, but what really makes it famous in medical history is that it has unparalleled magical effects in the fields of nourishing blood, preventing miscarriage and treating diseases. Modern scientific research shows that Ejiao is rich in protein, calcium, amino acids and other nutrients. It can promote the production of red blood cells, thus becoming a good medicine for treating gynecological diseases. Ejiao plays an important role in classic prescriptions such as Buxue ointment, Guyuan ointment and Chanfuxin pill.

In addition, Ejiao has a good effect on fatigue cough, hemoptysis due to lung flaccidity, hematochezia, vexation due to yin deficiency, insomnia and other symptoms. External use can also treat burns, scalds and chaps.

Although Ejiao is good, it is not suitable for everyone. People with weak spleen and stomach should not take it. Pregnant women, patients with hypertension and diabetes should also take it under the guidance of a doctor.
