Qianlong, the sixth emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was also the longest-reigning emperor in Chinese history.

He loves to read, and his thirst for knowledge is like a sponge, constantly absorbing new knowledge. Qianlong's love for history books is not just superficial. He was not satisfied with reading, but also pondered the implications. He often discussed historical events and figures with his masters, trying to draw wisdom from them.

Qianlong's diligent study was not all smooth sailing. He also had his share of difficulties and setbacks, but he never gave up. He firmly believes that only through continuous learning and hard work can he become a true emperor. His persistence and perseverance eventually won the appreciation and recognition of his masters.
