Wait there's a disease that blunts sense of taste? Also how drunk was he to not feel his throat dried up- oh that's probably why he kept drinking...

Maomao an alcoholic at such a young age..

Also, I doubted the too much salt/sodium intake thing can kill you for a bit so I googled it. Turns out it's true.

Yes, you can overdose on salt. ... Salt poisoning, also known as hypernatremia, is when a body takes in dangerously high levels of sodium, according to the National Capital Poison Center. Too much sodium in the bloodstream can damage brain cells, and lead to seizures, coma or even death.

And the taste loss is also real

People can also experience a reduced ability to taste sweet, sour, bitter, salty, and umami—a condition called hypogeusia [hy-po-GYOO-zee-a]. Some people can't detect any tastes, which is called ageusia [ah-GYOO-zee-a]. True taste loss, however, is rare

Wait how old is she again

 

[maisonaustyn]

@KhalE Old post but just so you get an answer. She was 17 at the start and is most like 18 now or will be 18 soon.

Something to keep in mind is that many women entered the imperial harem at a much younger age and many children would be present. Some emperors had thousands of concubines. Standards have changed greatly from the Imperial Era. Partly due to the fact that people live twice as long than they did then. Average life span for someone even in the 1800s would be around 40 if you were wealthy and lived a healthy life. Commoners died much younger.

@maisonaustyn thank you !! I still appreciate a reply!!

@maisonaustyn actually it’s a myth that healthy people used to live <40. Healthy people who survived past infancy enjoyed relatively long lives ~60+ years. I think what you’re talking about is life expectancy being lower, but it doesn’t mean less people live till old age because life expectancy is an average of all lives. Infant mortality rate was much higher back then, not to mention people being killed in battle etc. So for example we have 2 people, one is a baby who died in infancy and the other is a 70 year old woman. Life expectancy would be the average of the 2, (70 + 0)/2 = 35 years which is why the number was so small back then. ((Hope this helps!))

Can someone confirm for me who was the suspected killer? Is it the faceless worker that is shown up in the "flashbacks" or will it be revealed later?
