In the Tang Dynasty during the heyday of China s feudal society, how did people support the elderly?

The Tang Dynasty had a special system for supporting the elderly, and anyone who reached the age of 60 was called an old man, and those who reached the age of 70 were exempted from servitude. Those who are 80 years old or older can be equipped with special service personnel, those who are 90 years old or older can be equipped with two people, and those who are over 100 years old can be equipped with 55 people.

During the Tang Dynasty during the heyday of China's feudal society, the local government would send various benefits to the elderly who had reached a certain age, such as money, clothing, food, etc., and the children of the elderly would take full care of the elderly and be very careful.

The Tang Dynasty had a pension system, and the law stipulated that as long as you reached the age of 75, you could enjoy the state's pension benefits, which was a social welfare mechanism, reflecting the high level of society at that time. People live and work in peace and contentment, which can inspire filial piety in their children.

China has always advocated the culture of filial piety, and filial piety is the first, which is the truth, in terms of supporting the elderly, try to meet the requirements of the elderly, and let the elderly taste the delicious food at home.

In the Tang Dynasty, people had to live with the elderly in their families and live in the same house for generations, so as to support the elderly.

The imperial court issued a law that allowed the elderly to receive some subsidies and food when they reached the age of 75, and this practice eased the conflicts of the time.

Through material support, people will let the elderly eat well, dress well, and let the elderly enjoy the joy of family.

In ancient times, the Chinese were "ruling the world with filial piety", and respecting the elderly has always been a traditional virtue in our Greater China. When the gears of history turned to the Tang Dynasty, the heyday of China's feudal dynasty, the culture of filial piety has been accumulated for a long time, and all aspects related to pensions, policies, laws and other aspects have gradually matured and stabilized.

During the Tang Dynasty, the pension system has been more perfect, where the elderly over 70 years old are given a royal scepter, and the old man holds the royal scepter and violates the criminal law, as long as he is not the first offender, he is exempt from prosecution. Emperor Taizong's "Enthronement Pardon" clearly mentions that "all the elderly over 80 years old will be given two stones of rice and five sections of silk." More than 100 meters of four stones, cotton silk ten sections.

In order to prevent the elderly from being left unattended and supported, the law stipulates that parents and children who are still alive cannot leave the country, otherwise they will be punished according to the crime. Spiritually, you can't be disrespectful to your parents, and you must be kind and pleasant when you talk to your parents. The Tang Dynasty also promoted the "Lonely Garden", a nursing home that originated in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, to provide a fairly good guarantee for the elderly.

The Tang Dynasty advocated that filial piety should govern the world, and respecting and supporting the elderly was the basic filial piety. In the Tang Dynasty, there was a clear rule that the imperial court would send one person to take care of the elderly over 80 years old, two people over 90 years old, and five people over 100 years old. In terms of responsibility, the family bears the main responsibility for the elderly.

The state provides macro guidance and provides support for family pensions. The state will also supervise local officials to do a good job of pension work. In terms of etiquette, the Tang Dynasty continued the long-standing pension ceremony and the village drinking ceremony.

In the former, the emperor personally held a banquet on the auspicious day of mid-autumn to pay tribute and blessings to the elderly. The latter is to hold ceremonial activities to respect the elderly and honor the virtuous at the local level.

In short, the Tang Dynasty's measures in providing for the elderly were social and more comprehensive than those of the previous generation. The atmosphere and measures of respecting the elderly and providing for the elderly were also conducive to the harmonious development of the Tang Dynasty society. In today's society, when it comes to pension, it is often said that "pension problem".

The ageing of the population seems inevitable. If old-age care becomes a social problem, then special attention should be paid to and properly solved, and the elderly should not be regarded as a burden.

Since ancient times, our country has had the concept of governing the world with filial piety, and there are more traditional virtues of respecting the old and loving the young. Among them, the pension policy of the Tang Dynasty exceeded that of any previous dynasty.

The Tang Dynasty promulgated corresponding laws stipulating that the elderly could arrange for caregivers. For people over 80 years old, the state will assign a person to serve them. Over 90 years old, two people can be assigned to serve.

Over 100 years old are assigned 5 people to serve, and it's all free. Of course, in ancient times, very few people lived to be 80 years old.

At the same time, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty would also hold a pension ceremony to show respect for the elderly in the world. The ceremony was particularly solemn, and the emperor had to personally go out to greet the old man, and also set up a banquet to entertain the country's elders. Gifts are also given to them at mealtimes to congratulate them on their longevity.

Of course, those who can participate in the pension ceremony and receive the emperor's gift are only some representatives of the elderly. Generally, the elderly with high moral integrity are selected, but this kind of exemplary role of respecting the elderly is particularly large. In addition to the emperor's etiquette of respecting the elderly, each township will also advocate people to respect the elderly through the township drinking ceremony.

In the form of giving money to the elderly materially, the elderly are exempted from military service in taxes, and the elderly are exempted from forced labor. Equip the elderly with staff to take care of their lives. If the elderly break the law, they can be treated leniently, and the ninety-year-old will not be punished if he is instigated to commit a crime.

At the same time, it further stipulates the punishment of unfilial persons, and there are corresponding severe punishment measures in the law for beating parents and failing to support them. The Tang Dynasty also set up special early nursing homes for the lonely elderly, which improved the status and treatment of the elderly, and promoted family harmony and social stability.

The pension system of the Tang Dynasty was the most detailed and meticulous in ancient society. According to records, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty issued pension decrees as many as 72 times, and the benefits were very large.

The most important way to provide for the elderly in ancient China, the son is the main bearer of the responsibility of the elderly, and the Tang Dynasty also introduced a "service system" for the elderly over 80 years old to protect their pension.

In order to ensure family pension, the Tang Dynasty formulated many preferential policies for families with elderly people in terms of laws, household registration and other systems.

During the Tang Dynasty, filial piety was very important, and there were many rules and regulations for the elderly, and there were certain rewards for retirees.

In addition to the 72 edicts issued by the emperors of the Tang Dynasty, the ancient school was an important place for the state to carry out education.

The "Collection of Imperial Decrees of the Tang Dynasty" stipulates that the elderly can arrange for nurses to "give one person who is eighty years old and sick to one waiter"; This means that if an elderly person is over 80 years old, the state needs to assign a nurse to serve him.

The rulers of the Tang Dynasty implemented the Zhishi pension system, and gave a certain amount of money to retirement, so that they would not be in the court for the rest of their lives, and they would not have no money after retirement.

In order to implement Zhishi in the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty generally encouraged Zhishi by improving the grade of the Tang Dynasty, and Zhishi can usually enjoy the treatment of Banlu.

For the elderly over 80 years old, the state allocates one person to serve, for those over 90 years old, two people to serve, and over 100 years old, five people to serve, everything is free, of course, there are very few people who can live to be 80 years old.

Their pension system is: for the elderly over 80 years old, the state allocates one person to serve, for those over 90 years old, two people to serve, and over 100 years old, five people to serve, everything is free.
