As shown in the figure below, the average age of all emperors in the Qing Dynasty is 52 years old. Compared with the average age of 40 years of emperors in previous dynasties, the emperors in Qing Dynasty were relatively older. The top three life expectancy of Qing emperors were: Qianlong was 88 years old, Kangxi and Daoguang were 68 years old, and the flower exploration was won by the 67-year-old Qing Taizu Nurshachi.
Emperor Qianlong ascended the throne at the age of 25 and sat on the throne for 60 years. At the age of 85, he retired from the background and became the emperor's father. He died at the age of 88. It is not difficult to find that the Qianlong period has already killed the years of other emperors. Why did Qianlong live to be 88 years old when the life expectancy of ancient emperors was generally low?

Gan Long likes sports.
Gan Long's mother Niu Kelu lived to the age of 86, and Gan Long also had his own longevity gene. In addition, when I was a teenager, I liked sports, such as martial arts and knives and guns. I like hunting, riding and shooting everywhere. Later, when he became emperor, Qianlong was also a restless man, and he didn't like to stay in the palace all day, burying his head in reading the paper. Go out at the first opportunity. During Qianlong's reign, he went out to play and hunt in the Great Wall four times. In addition to going north to the fortress, Qianlong likes to be lively, as evidenced by six trips to the south of the Yangtze River, which also reflects Qianlong's attitude towards life: he likes to be lively and always has a young heart.

Gan Long is a healthy "talent"
Gan Long also pays great attention to maintenance. His diet is mainly seasonal fruits and vegetables, supplemented by meat, and he never overeats. He also goes to bed early and gets up early. Gan Long likes drinking tea. In his spare time, he drinks tea and chats with small Shenyang and adults. Moreover, Ganlong is very literary, likes reciting poems, and sometimes drinks tea. Suddenly, his poems will be great, and no one can stop his inspiration. Under normal circumstances, when Gan Long writes poems, he will be surrounded by Xiao Shenyang, and he will kiss up to adults appropriately. Ganlong will be very happy. He will try to save some poems.
According to the Concise Catalogue of Siku Quanshu, Emperor Qianlong wrote about 39,340 poems. Take The Complete Poems of the Tang Dynasty as an example. There are only over 48,000 poems collected by * *, all of which are poets in the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Qianlong wrote nearly 40 thousand poems alone. What is this concept? It is no exaggeration to say that he is a poet. No matter whether these poems are good or bad, it also reflects that Qianlong's attitude towards life is excellent. Generally speaking, Gan Long's diet, work and rest, and mentality are relatively healthy, and he is a healthy "talent".

When Qianlong was in power, the country was prosperous and the people were safe.
What is an emperor most worried about? Nothing more than worrying about the country's peril, the invasion of foreign enemies, and the lack of food and clothing for the people. These Qianlong emperors don't have to worry, because he has a good father Yongzheng and a good grandfather Kangxi. It is said that Kangxi and Yongzheng laid a good foundation for the prosperous times. It was only during the Qianlong period that these policies and measures began to take effect, and the "prosperous times" also blossomed. Qianlong is like a "second generation ancestor" who enjoys success. Accept all orders.
Kangxi killed Ao Bai when he was a teenager, and later succeeded in pacifying San Francisco, recovering Taiwan Province Province, expelling Russia, and making the Western Expedition to Mobei, which can be said to be outstanding. Its role is to maintain national unity and lay a good situation for the prosperity of Kanggan.
As soon as Yongzheng acceded to the throne, he was "diligent in the world" and did not patrol or hunt. He is a really busy emperor. He vigorously rectified the bureaucracy, severely punished corrupt officials, and corrected the shortcomings left over from the Kangxi period. The prosperous times slowly began to bear fruit.
According to historical records, during their thirteen years in power, Emperor Kangdi and Emperor Yong were diligent people, especially Yongzheng, who was in power for 13 years, kept reviewing the memorial every year. It was because of his overwork that he finally died in Yuanmingyuan at the age of 58. Of course, among the ancient emperors, Kang Heyong lived a long life.
Generally speaking, the pressure of being an emperor is not as great as that of Kang Heyong. The first two emperors have paved the way and the people live and work in peace and contentment. I'm in a good mood, so Qianlong has so much leisure to sing poetry, go hunting beyond the Great Wall and visit Jiangnan six times. People who are in a good mood will naturally live longer. Compared with the "hard work" life of the pioneers of Emperor Kang and Yong, it is reasonable to live a long and prosperous life.
