True dragon fortune telling

The fortune teller said that Gan Long could live to be 80 years old. Why did Gan Long cut off the fortune teller's head?

In our opinion, most ancient emperors were short-lived. The fortune teller calculated that Ganlong could live to be 80 years old. He was saying that he was wishing Ganlong a long life. And according to what we learned later, Qianlong was indeed a long-lived emperor, and the fortune teller was not talking nonsense. But he still made a fatal mistake. What is that?

We all say that the ancient emperor was a real dragon and the ninth five-year plan was supreme. What do they usually listen to? Long live the Lord? We eat the best food in the country and use the most precious medicinal materials. Before the food was imported, there was a special person to test the poison, and everything was to protect the health of the emperor. It can be seen that the emperor wants to live forever, or at least the longer the better. Moreover, in order to seek the elixir of life, many emperors even sent magicians to visit famous mountains and rivers, or spent a lot of money to find ancient books for Taoist priests to refine into elixirs. In modern times, most of these pills seem to contain heavy metals. Long-term use will make toxins accumulate, but people will die of serious illness before 100 years old. The reason why Gan Long can live a long life is also related to his unfaithfulness and reliance on the elixir of life.

But then again, the emperor is the emperor after all, and he is flattered every day? Long live the body? 、? Take care, dragon? 、? Viva viva viva viva? . At this time, a Taoist priest suddenly told him that he could only live to be 80 years old, and the other party was still complacent and waiting to appreciate it. Even an enlightened monarch can't stand such an insult. This is obviously ignoring the royal authority and violating the royal face. As a result, the fortune teller lost his life in vain.

But this kind of speech is also artistic. The so-called companion is like a tiger, and the emperor's mood changes quickly, so the expression of this sentence has changed, and his fate is likely to be different. If you give the fortune teller another chance, he may not tell the truth. Perhaps another way to praise Qianlong's longevity can not only save his life, but also increase his rank and level.
