The emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he invented an object, and now everyone uses it every day

Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youzhan was named Hongzhi, he was the ninth emperor of Ming Dynasty. Emperor Xiaozong was thrifty, generous, not close to sensuality, and only heard about government affairs. He reigned for 18 years, with the assistance of Liu Daxia and Wang Shu, to a certain extent saved the decline of the Ming Dynasty. Historically, his rule was called "Hongzhi Zhongxing".

In feudal society, it is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, and the social ethics of the time allowed it. As the supreme ruler of the country, the emperor has many beauties. Even a lonely emperor like Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty had a queen and two concubines. However, Ming Xiaozong was the only emperor in history who used actions to show equality between men and women. He had only one empress in his life, no nobles, no concubines, and only lived in the same palace with the empress every day, and lived the same couple life as ordinary people.

Ming Xiaozong is not only a good emperor, a good husband, but also an inventor to a certain extent. According to the American Dental Museum, the world's first toothbrush was invented by the Chinese Emperor Ming Xiaozong in 1498 AD. In 2004, a British publishing house published the book "Encyclopedia of Inventions", which described 3,000 great inventions of mankind, and attributed the inventor of the toothbrush to Ming Xiaozong.

In 1498, Emperor Xiaozong of Ming Dynasty used pig bristles as bristles and animal bones as brush handles to clean his teeth. Compared with the willow branch cleaning teeth of the ancients, the toothbrush invented by him can clean the teeth more cleanly, thereby protecting the teeth. An emperor also invented and innovated, and the world is truly amazing. Toothbrush is also one of our daily necessities.
