Why do emperors in the Qing Dynasty live a long life?

Comfortable living environment, smooth pace of life, and good habits of paying attention to health preservation are all reasons for Qianlong's happiness and longevity.

Because Gan Long was deeply loved by his grandfather Kangxi, he didn't have to compete with his brothers for the throne. And when he acceded to the throne, grandpa and dad had worked hard for decades, laying a good foundation for the Qing Empire. The world is at peace, so there is no need to worry about someone opposing his rule. At a particularly good historical node, the smooth accession to the throne enabled Qianlong to have a very peaceful and happy mentality.

Moreover, Gan Long not only knows the way of keeping in good health, but also sums up the four strategies of keeping in good health, such as "taking a deep breath into the heart, exercising bones and muscles, often doing ten things, not doing four things, and taking timely supplements", especially knowing how to cultivate one's mind and cultivate one's morality with poems and songs. Gan Long wrote more than 40,000 poems in his life. Although later generations have different opinions on his poems, he is happy. Besides writing poems, he also practices calligraphy. When splashing ink, he needs righteousness and concentration, and can go to the countryside to nourish his heart, which is also of great benefit to his health.

In addition, Gan Long often goes to the Palace for a cruise. He once went to the south of the Yangtze River six times, three times and five times, spent a lot of money in the state treasury, but also made himself very happy. Famous mountains and rivers, ancient temples and Buddhist temples all over the country, these natural beauty and human landscape, can not only exercise, but also Zhi Tao perception.
