Why did Kangxi and Qianlong live long?They never touched a single thing, and other emperors couldn't

1. The game of royal life.
In the history of China's development, nothing is more fascinating than the legendary emperors and emperors.
However, have you noticed that the lifespan of those "dragon species" is less than forty years!
It's really weird.
Is there a time bomb installed on the emperor's throne?As soon as he ascended to the throne, he began to age, and then he came to the end step by step
Presumably, other emperors would not be willing to do this. Everyone is fantasizing that they can live a long life and sit on the country.
But this is the fate of the case, all dreams come to an abrupt end at the age of sixty.
But it is not without exceptions. Kangxi's lifespan was 69 years old, and Qianlong's lifespan was 89 years old, which was the longest in history.
They all know very well that as an emperor, they should not spend their time on spending time on the land of flowers, but should make good use of their own power and live a simple and restrained life.
On the other hand, there is the kind of faint king who does not hesitate to empty half of the treasury in pursuit of eternal life.
Those who liked luxury and had a short lifespan were either blinded by power or fascinated by the elixir of eternal life, and finally blew themselves up.
It seems that the secret of longevity is two things: one is to be a generation of virtuous monarchs, and the other is to have a positive heart.
This is also the reason why Kangxi and Qianlong were able to achieve victory.
But can these secrets of immortality really be repeated?
Second, elixir and action are the two paths to longevity.
When talking about the mystery of the life span of emperors, it is necessary to mention the owners of two longevity records: Kangxi and Qianlong.
Kangxi is still alive at the age of 69, and Qianlong has already traveled west when he is 89 years old, obviously, these two people have their own secrets!
If you want to solve this mystery, you have to start with logic.
First of all, they don't have much obsession with pills.
And some emperors can only swallow a large lump of black and stinky sand, which is their own life.
Kangxi and Qianlong are much more shrewd, knowing that those messy things are useless at all.
The secret of their longevity is in **?Back in the day, the answer was only one word – "movement".
Both emperors had a special hobby of life in the wild.
His favorite thing is horseback riding, or hunting with ministers in the mountains and forests, and archery skills are naturally first-class.
It took half a day each time, and both of them were out of breath.
Sure enough, exercising is longevity!
In contrast, the faint emperor who lingers in the harem all day long, and his favorite thing to do every day is to throw dice, his physique must be very worrying.
Coupled with gluttony and alcoholism, a huge belly bulges in the abdomen, no wonder there is such an end.
Modern people are well aware of this truth and know how to exercise more, but this is not an ordinary truth in ancient times.
For them, the emperor is high above, and under 10,000 people, how can they say that they can run?
It is precisely because the two emperors, Kangxi and Qianlong, broke through the ideological shackles and made their activities more valuable.
Perhaps, this hobby stems from the living customs of their Manchu people, as well as their open-minded and enterprising side.
Therefore, the secret of longevity lies in the small discipline of the day, as well as an optimistic attitude.
Of course, the life of modern human beings far exceeds the gifts of those emperors. What's going on?
3. The lifespan of ancient people cannot be compared with that of today.
Let's not talk about the mythical immortals and Taoists, just talking about ordinary people, how miserable should the life of the ancients be?
Judging by archaeological data, around 1000 BC, the average age of the average people in China was 20 to 30 years old.
Those who can live for forty or fifty years are those who live a long life.
From the eyes of modern people, they are fleeting.
He didn't even have the opportunity to marry a wife and have children, and he was already dead.
There are two reasons why it is so miserable:
First of all, the genetics of ancient humans made their lifespans short.
Now, with genetic modification, we have broken the limitations of many organisms.
However, in ancient times, the genetic structure of the human body was very simple, and it has not undergone so many generations of selection and improvement, so the preset value of life is very small.
Secondly, it was because the level of medicine at that time was not very high.
For example, a general cold and fever may kill him.
What's more, there are cowpox everywhere now, and if you are not careful, you will die.
Many infectious diseases are now gone, or can be easily cured, but for the ancients, they were unsolvable nightmares.
Then there's the question of **.
When a poor person is sick, how can he have so much money to go to the doctor?
In the end, isn't he going to endure all the suffering and die in this world?
Even if you are an emperor, you may not live long.
Many mediocre kings will empty their treasure troves and use them to study the refining of pills.
Eventually, they were either poisoned or died of an overdose.
If there really is any elixir, it will not be studied by the emperor who is eager for quick success.
From this point, it can be seen that the short life of ancient people was related to the medical conditions of the time.
In the absence of technical support, it is simply impossible to overcome death by relying on the strength of individuals alone.
Today, our lives have been greatly enhanced, but they are far from the legend of immortality.
But as time goes by, no one knows how far humanity has reached now.
Perhaps one day, through genetic modification, people will be able to break through the limits of lifespan and achieve fabulous immortality.
Conclusion. Reading this, I think you must have a new understanding of the life experience of the ancients.
Some are long-lived, and some die because of **;Some people like alchemy, some like to exercise.
Those fragments of history seem to be fragmented, but in fact they are a warning to cherish life and live rationally.
Whether it is an emperor or a common man, if you want to have a good body and a long life, you must have strict discipline.
Don't be overly indulgent, don't blindly follow superstition.
Only by maintaining a peaceful mind and living a regular life can we enjoy life to the fullest.
