Did Qianlong invite a fortune teller to tell his fortune, Zhihu?

The fortune-teller calculated that Gan Long can live for three years if he abdicates now, but he can only live this year if he doesn't abdicate now.

When Qianlong was in power, the people were very happy and the country was very stable because of thoughtful governance methods. And Qianlong is also a long-lived man, a famous king in the Qing Dynasty. According to legend, Qianlong likes to play. On the way to visit Jiangnan, he met a fortune teller. Qianlong was still convinced of this, so he thought about calculating a divination. Before he could speak, the fortune teller guessed that he was the current king and also told his current thoughts. Ganlong thinks this fortune teller is quite accurate.

After that, Gan Long asked the fortune teller how long he could live. The fortune teller said that if he abdicated this year, he would live for three years. If you want to stay in this position, I'm afraid your life will not last this year. After that, Gan Long asked the fortune teller who should pass it on. The fortune teller said that he wanted to find a man with fire in his life, so Qianlong thought about it, returned to the palace to pass on the throne to Jiaqing, and became the emperor's father himself.

After returning to the palace, Gan Long sent someone to look for a fortune teller and tried to kill him, because he could see through his identity, and I'm afraid he was not a simple man. At the same time, he was afraid that the fortune teller would be used by a willing heart, but the fortune teller had long since disappeared, leaving only a note to tell Gan Long that he had made the last divination for Gan Long and would never tell others fortune again. In this way, Gan Long didn't let the fortune teller go.

After Qianlong passed the throne to Jiaqing, three years later, Qianlong died. If you think so, the fortune teller seems to be quite accurate, but these things have no exact basis, just legends.
