Gan Long is so old, why did he choose to be in power for 60 years?

Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty is a famous emperor in history and the longest-lived emperor. He was a monarch who really cared about people's lives and sympathized with their sufferings, and devoted his life to managing state affairs. During his administration? Anti-sense Shi Sheng? Reaching the peak, it promoted the economic and cultural development of the Qing Dynasty, and the people's lives were really happy and healthy.

As we all know, becoming an emperor means mastering the highest power and becoming the most respected person, but it is hard to become an emperor after being robbed by many people. Everyone wants to be the supreme authority. Being an emperor will always be supported and will not be overthrown halfway. The longest-lived emperor in Qianlong lived to be 89 years old, but after 60 years in power, he returned the throne to Jiaqing Emperor.

This is mainly because in the feudal society at that time, people always respected their ancestors, and Kangxi was the grandfather of Qianlong, and Kangxi was also a famous monarch in history. His outstanding political ability and management ability laid the foundation for the development of the Qing Dynasty during his reign, so Qianlong always respected and admired Kangxi. No matter which side wants to be behind Kangxi, but Kangxi died after being emperor for 6 1 year, and Qianlong didn't want to surpass Kangxi, so he voluntarily gave up the throne.

On a trip to the south of the Yangtze River, a fortune teller guessed his identity without waiting for Ganlong to speak, and told Ganlong that he needed to give up the throne so that he could live for three years. Ganlong was surprised at what the fortune teller said, but he couldn't believe it, so he gave up the throne and lived the rest of his life.
